NAVY AIRCRAFT PLAN
LAID BEFORE SENATE

WASHINGTON, May 13-Plans
for complete equipment Of the fight
ing fleet with aircraft during the
coming fiscal year, it was learned to-
day, have been laid before the SEN
ate naval committee by Rear Ad-
miral Moffatt, chief Of the navy's
bureau of aeronautics. The projec-
contemplated placing 213 airplanes
of various essential types on battle
ships, cruisers, scouts and other yes
sells, and is designed to furnish thu
flet with it's own aerial defense
against enemy aircraft attacks.
Under the plan eighty-six small,
swift fighting planes will be 1nclud-
ed in the aircraft to become a per-
manent part of the fleet aircraft de-
tense. The machines to be used for
this purpose are believed by navy
officials to be the best yet developed
for fighting in air, having been
completely developed under navy
control since the close If the war.
They are designed to meet in air and
repel raids against the ships of the
fleet by enemy bombers.
In addition the active ships will
carr forty-six observation and
spotting planes, tw~nty-seven small
spoilers, thirty-six torpedo or bomb
ing planes, eighteen scouts and -four
kite balloons for observation pur-
poses. Each battleship of the eight
cen comprising the fleet under the
naval limitation treaty will carry
four planes, two VT, or single
| fighters, one big spotter and one tor
pedo or bombing plane. The torpedo
plane will permit attack on enemy
surface craft with 1,500-pound tor
pedoes or with an equal weight in
bombs.
Catapault launching devices re.
Gently developed and tried out sue
cessfullY are to be installed on all
ships. enabling them to send away
their aerial defense squadrons ever
in a heavy sea way. The ten new
scout cruisers will carry two cata-
paults each and fighting and scout
| ing planes to add to the range of
observation Of enemy movements.

lieved was in the interest of the en-

the advocacy Of reservations in the
senate proceeded from partisan mo-
tives and that in so far as there was
a strong popular opinion in the coun-

ceede1 from the same sources from
which had come the pro-German
propa ganda. Before the war pro-
German agitation had sought to
keep us out of the conflict, and after
the war it sought to separate us in
interest and purpose from other gov
ernmentS with which we were asso-
ciated.
BY bic opposition to reservations
the president was seeking to pre-
vent Germany from taking through
diplomacy what she had been I'M
able to get by her armies.
The president was so confident of
the essential rightness of the league
and the covenant and of the inherent
rightmindednes of the American
people that he could not believe that
the people would sanction either re-
lection or emasculation of the treaty
if they could be made to see the is

Committee to Select
p Best Books for
Small Rural Schools

CHICAGO, May 6.-The best
twenty-five. books for a one-room
country school will be selected by
the votes Of several thousand IL
brarians and teachers at the annual
conferences of the American Lii
brary association in Detroit, June
26-July l., and Of the National Edu-
cational association in Boston early
in July.
The winning titles will be an
nounced after the conferences "in
order that people everywhere may
know what books are considered by
Librarians and teachers as most in
teresting and useful to children in
the elementary grades" it was stat
ed by Carl H. Milan, secretary of
the American Library association.
"A recent study of children's read.
ing in one state showed that some
times scores of children in a given
district do not read anything but
the textbooks; and that not infre-
equently there are no readable books
in either the schools or the homes"
Mr.. Milan said. I'm other districts
school libraries are made up of dis
scarded books from dusty attics or
of large sets of books, in near-leath-
er binding, which nobody ever
reads.
cit is the hope Of the two asso-
Citations conducting the contest that
the selection of this list will serve
to stimulate interest in good books
for general reading. and to encour-
age the establishment and develop
ment of small school library collec-
tions. The desire Of the organia-
tions is to interest not only the
teachers and librarians but also the
school boards, trustees, public Off
Gals, parents and the children
themselves"

Hungry Boil WeeviIs Eat
Cherries and Peaches

DALTON, Ca, May 13.-The boil
wee Which invaded this section
last summer for the first time, has
discovered he is capable of DESTROY
ing other things than cotton, and,
as result the farmers are becom-
ing truly alarmed.
Little cotton has been planted
here this year, owing to the pro-
tracted rains, and the weevil COM
ing out of winter quarters, has been
casting about for something to eat.
He must have whette> his appetite
on the mountain dew that grows
here, for J. G. Mcclellan has found
the weevil feasting on his cherries
and apparently thriving on them.
From another part of the county
comes a report of weevils eating
green peaches.
Now many farmers, it is said, are
debating whether or not to make
any effort toward making a water
melon crop this year.
