Mr.. Bryan Remains d Rover.

Mr.. Bryan, wisely enough, has de-
cided not to enter the senatorial pri-
mary in Florida. He will remain foot
loose and office-free, and at liberty to
exert his influence here, there and
yonder, as popular calls and his own
judgment may agree Is best for the
causes he represents.
Out of office Mr.. Bryan is national
figure. For a quarter century he has
gone up and down the country. in all
seasons and weathers. addressing the
people on current issues, political so
cial, even religious. In that way he
has become an institution, welcome
everywhere, even in localities differing
with him in opinions.
AS q senator he would have been
localized somewhat. The people of
Florida would have had the first claim
on his attention. Senator Bryan would
have had to be in Washington a large
part Of his time looking after local
interests. He would have had to sur
render to one state talents he had long
been employing in the interests of all
the states.
And just now there is special need
of his services on the outside. He is
an ardent prohibitionist, and prohibi-
ton is under direct challenge in all
sections. The vets are in fighting
form, and fighting for the control of
the Sixty-eighth Congress. They are
putting the issue to the front every
where, and asking for votes on it.
No dry can afford to be silent or in.
active, and Mr.. Bryan is the most
eminent and eloquent Of the cham.
pions Of the eighteenth amendment. At
this time, therefore, Of all times he
will probably feel the urge to do his
utmost everywhere for the issue with
which he is 30 strongly identified.

Also. Washingtonians poor not quite
so poor and just fairly we'll to do were
there, for real Washingtonians are
never rich. The very rich also come
from out-of-town and they come to
Washington Just because Washington
is Washington.
The great game showed its power to
draw, hold and enthuse every kind Of
man and woman with real blood lin

aristocratic, blue or just plain red. All
the folks were present, from the Pres
ident of the United States and over

of business, profession and trade was
represented by full, unanimous and
bowling delegations in the royal stand

Now Comes the Vote.

Before another day has passed the
House. as in committee Of the whole,
will probably have voted on the epegson-
mel provision in the naval appropria-
ton bill, with prospect ola record vote
in the House later, No member should
shrink from a record vote, but on the
contrary be glad of the opportunity
to put his name in: the roster Of those
supporting an adequate Navy as
against an inadequate Navy; a Navy
which in fact as wen as on paper
conforms to the ratio fixed by the
naval limitation treaty, yet which at
the same time does not contravene
the. demand for economy and reduc-
tion in naval armament and construc-
ton.
The facts and the logic assembled
by the small but valiant group who
have been fighting for a treaty Navy
constitute pitiless arraignment of
those who have sought to provide a
personnel which is declared by all the
technical experts and advisers to be
insufficient to man the eighteencap
ital-ship fleet of the treaty and only
sufficient to man a twelve or thirteen
ship fleet.
That was a pertinent, question pro-
pounded by Mr.. Longworth in the
House yesterday, with an apt and ill.,
Illuminating answer by Mr.. Rogers.
Mr.. Longworth asserted that at the
time the treaty was made I'VE were
morally bound to the American peo:
pie to see that the obligation. was
met" Then he asked. land what
would the gentleman think. if a
statement had been made at that
time that France and Italy and Eng
land and Japan were joining together
to prevent our getting Navy of at
least 5-5-3 ratio, would have been
the reaction of this country"
Straight to the bull's-eye went Mr..
Rogers answer: IF our delegates had
agreed to a Navy the one-hundredth
Of 1 per cent less than that of any
other power in the world. they would
have been swept out Of existence by
a storm of public disapproval.'
Never was a truer thing said. No
doubt the very men. who intend to
vote for the reduction approve the
sentiment and realize its representa-
ton Of the state of the public mind.
If. they seek to- justify their vote by
the contention that the reduction does
not indeed weaken the treaty Navy,
they collide head-on with the facts and
figures showing to the contrary. pre-
