3 Objections
Raised TO y. s.
Navy Proposal
Size of Submarine Fleets,
Closing of ShipyardS and
JGpGn'S Allotment Cited.
BY ]. w. 7. MASON.

Opposition to large submarine navies
and a reluctance to close down naval
construction yards are the only concrete
objections that have been made to the
American disarmament program. A third
objection is being promulgated appar-
emily by Japan against the 40 per cent
inferiOrity allotted to her navy.
Cnderseas fleets can be reduced in size
without jeopardy to America. But en-
tire elimination of the large offensive
types from future naval programs might
handicap Americas strategy. These are
the only submarines that America could
use for trans Pacific operations. AS
long, therefore, as warships are permit
ted at all for national defense, the super
submarine must have a high place IL
the American scale.
The British strategic position is differ
ent and requires surface craft for pro
tecting food ships rather than submq
riue. Keeping naval construction yard:
closed during the holiday period is g
matter that may become fundamental IN
the American plan. All the nations must
take risks in that respect
1t is a greater risk for a country like
England that has never more than seven
weeks food supply on hand than for
a nation not dependig on overseas sources
for its food Nevertheless, the British
mercantile shipbuilding business is so
vast 1t might he utilized to maintain the
morale and skill of naval dockyard work
ers. Under normal working of the
Hughes plan, repair yards for warships
viii be open, enabling construction work
ing men to keep themselves from forget
ting their trade during the ten-year hOH-
day.
A Japanese request for a closer approx
imation to Americas naval strength is
capable only Of very limited adjustment.
At present Japan's sea power is about
IS per cent of Americas. The United
States voluntarily has offered to Japan a
per cent increase. Another 3 per cent
advance might be made, but beyond that
the vastly greater interests IN America
has to protect must be given primary
consideration.-Writ for United Press.

CHICAGO. Nov 16.-Uuionism Of
America will be dealt death blow II
the check-ofG injunction issued by Fed
eral Judge A. B. Anderson In Indian
apolls is upheld, attorneys for the United
Mine Workers Of America contended to-
day in arguing an appeal before the
United States Circuit Court Of Appeals.
mo court In the land is endowed with
such sweeping powers" William Glas-
gov. Jr., chief attorney for the miners,
declared.
Judge Samuel Alschuler, one OF the
Judges hearing the case, voiced his agree
ment to Glasgow's statement that the
Injunction is broad enough to stop union
ization Of miners throughout the country
The injunction was issued by Judge
Anderson on petition OF the Borderland
Coal Company OF West Virginia in an
effort to bring peace In the mine war
which has ragged in Mingo County for
years due to unionization activities.
This injunction viii prevent uniOnza
ton work not only in Mingo but through
out the country" Glasgow said. "by either
lawful or unlawful methods.
"The check off system by which union
dues are collected from each worker by
deduction from his pay check by the mine
operator and then turned into the union
treasury is not due to a contract between
the national union and the operators as
sociation. It is unjust to tie up the ma
tional unions organization funds by such
an injunction. The court went far beyond
anything necessary to preserve peace in
Mingo by restraining miners throughout
the central competitive field from using
the check off system"
Glasgow made the point that the con-
tract could not be in violation Of the
Sherman antitrust act, preventing COM
binations in restrain af treda. He de-
clared labor was not u commodity of com

With the community hardly recovered
sfrom the heat OF the municipal campaign,
Republican politicians today are angling
for position in the race for Republican
nominations for county offices next May.
Some Of the struggles for important posts
on the county ticket, such as treasurer,
auditor and sheriff, promise to be almost
as terrific as the primary battle last
spring between F. J. Robson. Samuel
Lewis Shank and Thomas c. Howe for
the Republican nomination for mayor.
Already there is one advantage which
the nominatiO seekers are scrambling
for-the favor Of the city organization
built around the powerful personality of
Mr. Shank. And already Mr.. Shank and
his lieutenants are scrambling equally as
hard to escape declaration for any can
didate. Mr.. Shank declared frequently in
his campaign speeches that Nhe did not
intend to build up a personal organiza-
ton ut the city hall Nevertheless in the
list Of Mr.. Shank's appointments an
nOunced so far the names of more than
fifty Of the city precinct committeeman
are to be found and the county office
seekers evidently hope to induce the
mayor-elect to arouse this latent power
in their behalf. In spite Of this the close
advisers Of the incoming executive are
telling all comers that they do not wish
TO attempt to dominate any primary.

Gates in conference circles that delegates
have got down to business
The conference began it's discussion OF
the problems of the Pacific and the Far
East behind closed doors as there is a
great deal to be said on many sides Nine
nations were represented. The settlement
turns, however, on Great Britain, Japan
and the United States.
America entered the momentous session
determined to play a game no less frank
and honest than she did when Secretary
Hughes made his audactous stand for
Limitation Of naval armament.
From the most competent sources a
summary of the policies there to be un-
folded has been obtained.
L. The United States will oppose
Japanese aggression in the Far
East, and win regard a renewal of the
AngIO-Japanese alliance as an influ-
ence for aggression.
Second. Great Britain will decline
to scrap the alliance if by that act
she will appear to be "ditching" the
Japanese, whom she regards as a true
friend and ally and not at all merit
ing any humiliation before the world.
Third. Japan will reassert in terms
of the greatest sincerity her desire to
maintain cordial relations with Great
Britain and America. but will insist
on recognition of her right to eco
nOmic expansion In the Far East.
JAPAN TO CHALLENGE
CHARGE OF AGGRESSIVENESS.
Japan was prepared to challenge any
charges of aggressiveness. She is ready
to repudiate her twenty one demands on
China as a mistaken diplomatic policy.
She was prepared to show a readiness to
agree to any reasonable policy which
would bring Great Britain, the United
States and herself into accord. In plain
words, it was a far more liberal minded
Japan than the world observed at the
Paris peace conference.
The United States is ready to recognize
the right of the japanese to a reasonable
economic outlet in the Far East, but the
United States will not agree that political
aggression must follow trade and popula-
ton. The United States is not prepared
to agree to any alliances, however, at
tractive may sbe the lure of tri-partite

FARMERS
SHOULD UNITE
TOHOLDPRICES
Former Governor Harding of
Iowa Pleads Organ
iZatiOn.
ELECTION OF OFFICERS

If the farmers Of America had been
organized for the last ten years the
price Of farm products would not have
hit the bottom as they have at this time,
former Governor W y. Harding of Iowa
declared in addressing the third annual
convention Of the Indiana Federation Of
Farmers Associations at the Masonic
Temple today.
The time has come wnen individuals
even farmers, can not work alone TO
their best advantage" he said. AS soon
as the farmer learns to give and take he
will come into his own and not until
then. One OF the greatest movements
In the last ten years toward the stab
ilization Of industry has been the or
ganization Of the farmer. Not until the
farmer presents a united front can we
hope for Industrial prosperity.
Unless the farmers organize so they
can produce just enough and not too
believe me, the future is dark. Let the
farmer organize for something and not
against something"
Mr.. Harding suggested that the Gov
ernment make arran gements to buy
countries in Europe which need it. He
said that things Of this kind are the
purpose Of strong organization of
farmers and not merely the securing OF
a cent more on a dozen eggs or a pound
Of wool
Mr.. Harding also discussed in detail
the projected opening of the st. Law
renee River to permit ocean going yes
sells to enter the Great Lakes. He said
this would mean that 1900 miles OF sea
shore would be brought to the northern
part Of the United States.
The speaker blamed high freight rates
for the low price of corn and inadequate
transportation facilities for high freight
rates.
If the farmer can no more than break
even on his corn he will raise no more
than enough to make his own white
mule Mr.. Harding said
Freight rates are more than the traffic
can stand. Because OF terminal conges-
tion the average freight car travels only
twelve miles a day"
He gave a number of examples of diff
ficulties caused by high freight rates and
inadequate transportation facilities

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 16.-Tne
North and South are blended pretty
well in Atlanta. Skyscrapers that
would grace the Grand Canyon Of
Lower Manhattan you see in fair
Anumber in and about Peach Tree
street, while nearby you find struc-
lures that typify the old South
There's a rustic and a hustle about
the Five Points in Atlanta night and
dav. and few Northern cities are af-
hicted with more traffic problems
than this Southern city, which IN
Civil war times was one Of the store
houses of the Confederacy and now
is the great warehouse Of the South
Atlantic States. Hundreds Of impor-
tant manufacturing and producing
concerns of the North and East have
their Southeastern headquarters here
and carry large stocks for listribu-
ton over a wide trade territory.
In addition, the city has a considerable
industrial establishment that embraces
about 600 factories, making everything
from textiles to sirups for soft drinks.
There are cotton mills and cotton oil
mills. fertilizer plants and furniture fac
tories -four mills and fOUndries, ma
cfhnery works and packing houses, paper
box factories and stove works, tractor
plants and tobacco factories and so on
through a very long list
With a population slightly in excess
Of 100000. Of which about One-third Is
negro. Atlanta is not troubled much at
anv time with labor trouble, and de-
spite pronounced dullness in some lines
Of business, the city authorities expect
no difficulty in caring for the unem-
ployed this winter.
LABOR SITUATION
. IMPROVED.
There has been distinct improvements
in the labor situation in the last few
months. Lumber has been in better
demand. That has called for con-
adorable number Of men in both the
timber districts and the yards. Build
ing has been quite active, particularly
as to small houses, and the cottonseed
oil plants and textile mills have in
creased their forces
Considering the fact that Georgia is
an agricultural State and its chief crop
-cotton-shows only one-third Of full
Weld this year. the marvel is that con-
ditions appear so good The explana-
ton probably is in the great variety OF
IT'S farm products. It has big yields Of
corn. Of Irish and sweet potatoes, cat
tie. swine, sheep, sugar cane, oats pea
nuts. peaches, watermelons, honey, mules,
