secretary Of War and the Secretary or the Navy as to the size and equip- ment Of the two military establish ments. Congress evidently has put great political store by the recent arms conference and feels that the complete success of that Undertaking will be assured only by cutting down the American army and navy usual iy to the vanishing point. Secre- tary of War Weeks and Secretary of the Navy Denby, knowing more of the international situation than is vouchsafed to Congress to feel that serious cut in either establish ment would be. little short of a na- tional disaster.
 Appeals for 1s0,Oo0 Navy
 1ndorsing the two members of his cabinet the President himself has ap- pealed for navy of at least 1So.o0o and army of 100000, while navy ex- perts agree the strength should be at least 1s0,O0O, and General Persh- ing, member of the advisory coun- Gil at the arms conference, has said 1t would be foolhardy to cut the army below 150,0eo men. Congress has attempted to dispute the army claims by limiting the number of American troops to be stationed on the Rhine, in Hawaii, in the Philip pines and in the Canal Zone. Presi- dent Harding feels that this attempt on the part of Congress to direct the disposition of the armed forces of the country IS clearly an usurpation of objected to all of the agreements reached among the allies for months past. It isr a question, I repeat, of priority. and necessitates close study considering the failure of the United States to ratif.' the treaty of Ve-- sailles.
 French Were Shocked
 The form and time of Mir. Boyden's action shocked us far more than the action itself. During the war I my self encountered far more serious diff faculties concerning the use of money borrowed from America, but an agree ment always was reached. It is cer- tain that a conciliatory spirit ia need ed on both sides. I say, frankly, that don't think it has been lacking on our side in the present instance
 As to the alleged mihtarism, I can only suggest: Come see for your self"
 With our colonies we are a nation of foe,o0e.ess people and we do not de- sire that we shall be cut off from those colonies. That is the whole ex-  tent of our naval militarism. We are European country that has been in- vaded twice in 50 years We desire an assurance that this will not hap pen again. That is the extent of our militariszn.
 Our viewpoint upon these questions was lilly expr es5ed at Washington. It is too bad. But you are too intelli- gent to make us forever responsible for the blurfders of our delegates. In 1919, we assented to entrust a large part of our security to. international agreements in the League of Nations and d. Ter siv -reaties. These agree ments' having failed to materialize we have been forced to fall back upon material guarantees, occupation and military force. But even now we arc prepar ng to vote law cutting mill itary service in half.
 There. is the truth. I ask our Amer ican frieds to consider it calmly and good humoredl.-.

MRS. M'NALLY IS

Missing Corpus Deficit

In "Twins" Case
(By Associated Press)

HAMMOND, Ind. Oct. 20-Mrs. Hazel
McNally. accused by her husband of muir
dering twin babies he claims We're born
to her last December, was discharged at
the close of preliminary hearing today.
Mrs. McNauy had contended that the
babies were not born but that she parad-
"a dolls before the neighbors to satisfy
he,. husbands ambition to be known as
father.
The 26-year-old wife, who has grinned
and giggled through four days of prelim-
mary hearing while witnesses attempted
to fastcn on her the charge OF double muir
der, collapsed and fell fainting to the
floor with the cheers of $40 women in
the court room ringing in her ears.
BY a strange paradox of the law. the
defense which maintained the twins
born to Mrs. McNally last Decemner
were only inanimate creations OF CHINA
and straw dressed in baby clothes, won
