Disarmament" at the Navy Yard

washington was given a dramatic
demonstration of the practical mean
ing of naval arms limitation yester-
day, when it learned that 1850 work
ers at the naval gun factory had been
Surloughed without warning. Such a
wholesale lay.off cannot fail to have a
very serious economic effect in this
of income from probably over 1000
people, counting all the families. This
at a time of slack employment gem
orally makes very unfortunate stu
alton, and it calls for reconsideration
by the Navy Department to determine
whether it is necessary thus suddenly
and sweepingly to reduce the force at
the yard.
1t is urged by many that the naval
establishments should be put to other
uses than those of the past in order to
hold together the efficient forces that
have been organized as well as to less
en- the economic strain Of immediate
dismissals. If these men are fur
loughed they cannot be expected to
remain idle here in Washington for
employment. AS many as possible will
find work elsewhere. taking their fami-
lies in most instances. They will be
reluctant to return if later work is
resumed at the gun factory. They will
regard their furloughs as tantamount
to dismissal.
1t is impossible to calculate the val
ue that is lost in such dispersal of
an efficient organization. OF course, if
the government has no purpose of u.s.
ing force again its preservation is
needless. But even with the arms
limitation policy carried through in
strict accordance with the agreements
just reached it will be necessary to
continue much of the naval armament
fabrication and assemblage, and there
IS no plant better calculated to meet
the needs of the government than that
at Washington. No political considera-
tion should be permitted to stand in
the way of the fullest possible con-
sideration of this establishment, ma
tsrial and personnel.
As for the question of notice, it is
surely the right of these workers to
be given some warning to enable them
to make other arrangements. The
manner in which they have been
dropped without any chance whatever
of finding other work and thus avoid
ing loss does not rest well with the
public, and there will be very gem
eral support Of the plea for the restora-
ton, even though at the end of few
weeks or months every one of these
men may have to go. A reduction OF
the force by few score monthly until
the establishment is brought down to
the Limitation" basis would be much
more equitable and less disturbing.
The country approves the policy of
naval limitation and reduction OF
ornaments 1t has rejoiced in the
prospect of peace and economy Of
fered by the recent conference held
here. But 1t does not call for drastic
sudden changes that upset industrial
conditions, in an overturn that may be

There's quiet in old Limerick,

There's wild and un-feigned happiness,
And Irish drinks flow FREE
For love of Kerry Tipperary,
And the years that are to be!
And Galway, Wicklow, Wexford, Meath,
Kilkenny Louth: and Clare.
All stack their arms in righteous pause
In peace-time service dare:
For Ireland at last lis free,
Delivered of her chains,
Proud with the blood of nation-hood
Now surging through her veins!
Nor have Irish heroes persisted,
Spending themselves in vain,-
The freedom of mighty race
Is now their blood-wrought gain;
Choosing the death of a patriot
To the bondage of a slave,
They wrought of their valor, freedom
Proud legacy Of the brave
