SEA POWER
annapolis Professors Tell His
tory in NaUaI Terms

No matter what proportions Of the
worlds navies are scrappcd, there will
always be barking back to the oldcn
glories of victory on the waters, even
If only to explain the scope and course
Of world history. Doubtless, too, there
will always be certain amount of
naval armament, even under ncadem-
ically ideal conditions, for self defense
In case the ideal breaks down, IL for
no aggressive reason.
Hence the sitting of the Disarma- :
mcnt Conference and the nromulgation
of the 5-5-3 bnttlcship ratio cannot
reduce the value Of such n book as "a
History Of Sea Power" (Gcorge H
Doran Company. The authors, Will
liam Oliver stevens and Allan West
colt, are professors in the United States
Naval Academy. They tell the story
OF the worlds movement from the
Athcnian and Carthnginian scafarers TO
the present day. opening up Il romantic
vista of history. Yet the book is NOT
n chronicle Of battles, though the an
nails of notable sea fights are not
neglected. The international and an
alytic sides of the subject are well cared
for. The book. therefore, is really a
history of civilization from the point
of view of sea power II reveals the
close interdependence of national power
and the control of the sea. All this
philosOphic aspect is drawn from thc
amplitude OF material concerning the
rise and fall of great empires and their
nuvics, military and maritime, The
physical development of the merchant
man and man -o'-war is traced, and
the influence of each on history is re-
corded.
This valuable volume has been nut
on the list of textbooks at Annapolis,
and it will be boon and Il mine of
information for the general reader who
wishes to be inteliGcntly informed on
fundamentals, backgrounds and per-
: rspectives.

lar enough with him to know something
of the literature about him. From
one Of them have received the follow
ing note:
You and H. T. C. are unduly puffed
up over your alleged discovery that
Melville in "Moby Dick shows the
influence of Carlyle. On page 322
of the first volume of "The Cambridge
History of American Literature" it
Is noted of Melville that HE had
turned, contemporaries said, from
the plain though witty style of his
hrst works to the gorgeous manner
of Sir Thomas Browne he had been
infected, say later critics. with Car
lylese." You and II. 7. c. cannot be
tho later critics" referred to. because
The Cambridge History was pub
lished in 1917 and your remark was
not made in print until 1921. SO,
like DR.. Cook and the North Pole,
you must abandon your claim to
priority Of discovery.
II. L. G. says he is willing TO aban
don any prctenslons to knowledge about
Melville IL he can induce others to read
'MOby Dick" and / am in the same
mood. 1t Is one of the great novels
Of the language, a novel wNch shows
man fighting undismayed against thC
forces Of nature and going down tc
defeat with an undaunted heart, anC
this, according to the numerous mcr
who profess to know, is the test by
which novel should be judged. i

4 REGENERATION
Mrs. MilLer's Story of a WHlful
Rich Girls Experience

Lydia Thorne was the motherless
daughter of self -mnde man. She was
so self willed that she would not sub
init to the discipline of school, and
she grew up without considering any
thing but her own wishes. When she
drove her motorcar she ignored the speed
laws, and bribCd the policeman who
stopped her. She speeded her car once
too often and killed n man on Long
Island. She was convicted Of man.
slaughter through the exertions OF a
District Attorney to whom she had
remarked once at dinner party thatthe
laws were not impartially enforced.
The District Attorney had driven her
home after the dinner party and kissed
her In the shadow of the grape vines
that covered her porch. She refused
to see him when he called the next day,
and when he conducts the case against
her and proves her guilt, she tries to
make herself believe that It Is because
he hates her, and she vows that she
will humiliate him and make him beg
for mercy. She has to go to prison,
and while there discovers there Is a
pleasure in which she had lived. and
she resolves to abandon her old ways
when she gets her freedom. She does
abandon them. and interests herself in
a. society for the relief Of former con
victs. But she succeeds in blocking the
District Attorneys chances for part
nership in New York law firm, and
on the same day promises to marry him
This is the outline of the story OF
"Manslaughtcr" Dodd. Mead & Co..
Alice Duer Millcr's latest novel. 1t is
n study in the development of character
and the interest ccnters in the effect OF
her experiences upon Lydia Thornc
The first half Of the book is an exhibi.
tion of the willfulncss of the young
woman. Then comes the prison ex'
pericnce, which Is described in muCl
detail. and the dcnouement takes only d
few pages at the close.
The story is told with the SANE
familiarity with the habits of the ricl
that is displayed in "Thc Charm
School but it is much more serious
piece of work.
