BY EDWARD w. picKARo

HAVING made their losing fight
II against the Pacific four-power
pact, the obstreperous minority In the
senate ceased from troubling last
week. and fell into line-all but Sen
ator France OF Maryland. The treaty
on Limitation of ~navies. chief work
of the Washington conference. after
IN inconsequential debate, was rati-
fed on Wednesday by a vote of "A to
J.. Mr.. France defended his lonely
negative vote by contending that the
UnltedLStstes should continue build
ing the largest navy In the world I'M
I'll all other nations had. shown their
willingness TO abolish war totally. OF
the other irreconciiables, Borah ex-
planned that he favored the treaty
because Ii was a step toward the goal
at which he had been aiming for many
years. namely, complete disarmament,
u d-that he believed this agreement
was as much as the international con-
ference was able to accomplish. john
son OF California did not disguise his
dislike for the pact, especially its Pa
cifc Notifications clause. but he voted
for ratification on the assurance of
the navy general board that the United
States would not give up anything that
is s~trategically vital. King OF Utah,
though accepting the treaty, thought
it would have small effect In reduc-
Ing naval expenditures. predicting that
huge sums now would be spent on
aircraft and submarines.
Immediately after the vote OF ratif-
cation the senate tool up the treaty
prohibiting the use of poison gas and
restricting the use of submarines in
warfare and accepted II unanimously.
Before casting his vote Senator Wads-
worth of New York, chairman of the
military affairs committee, expressed
the opinion that in the next war this
treaty would not be worth the paper
il was written on.
For my own part said Senator
Wadsworth. Il shall be very much dis
c%ouraged IL the United States army
should stop trying to perfect gas
masks because OF this treaty. We
don't dare stop. And the only way
we can perfect gas masks is 10 test
them with the kind Of gases which we
may have TO combat. We might as
well look the facts in the face"
Before the week closed. the remain
ing treaties. the nlne-power pact re-
lating 10 China aud the one dealing
with the Chinese tariff. were put
through, and thus the senate eomplet-
ed It's part In making the great
Washington conference a success.
Naturally. and with reason. the Dem
claim a share IN this accom-
plishmenf. especially asserting that
President Wilson must be
much credit for ~arousing public
In favor of naval limitation.
L is evident. however. that the Repub-
leans will make large use Of the con-

MO LESS than the navy men, the
~ army men are exercised over the
tendency toward what they believe to
be false and dangerous economy
shown by many members of congress.
The house passed an army approprla-
ton bill which limits the army to 49,
600 enlisted men and 10000 officers.
General Pershing, chief of staff. and
General Harbord, deputy chief, assert
ed such a reduction would Introduce
al unwarranted element OF danger In
our plan OF national defense and that
an army of 10000 men and 1900
officers Is absolutely essential to the
nations needs at this time. At first
the bill carried a provision limiting
the Presidents right TO determine the
size Of garrlsons In the Hawaiian is
lands and the Panama Canal Zone.
This was eliminated when Anthony of
Kansas said he had the promise of
the War department 10 reduce those
garrlsons, but Secretary Weeks indIg-
nantly declared that he not only had
made no such promise but had no In
tention of making the reductions.
