FLEET NIANEUVERS.
Succeeds In Eluding Composing
Forces in Pacific.

Aboard II. s. S. California, Feb. 20
(By Associated Press) The battle
fleet today was safely tucked away
in it's objective anchorage following
extensive combined joint maneuvers
which We're said by Admiral Eberle,
who commanded the fleet from the
bridge of the flagship California, to
have been successful beyond his fond
est hopes.
The fleet Unanswered so success
fully that it eluded the opposing
forces which were unable to discover
the battle craft until too late to at
tack. Led by it's destroyers and
mine force, the feet at all times was
operating under severe war condi-
tons. Once an opposing submarine
appeared, but after many reports of
being sighted and attacked by de-
stroyers, it was adjudged it would
have been destroyed or rendered
harmless if actual warfare existed.
Later the submarine came to the sur
face dead ahead of the California,
which barely missed raining the I'M
dersea craft. A seaplane was
launched from a battleship at sea to
scout out the enemy and detect the
presence of submarines and mines.

HARDING'S REGIME
HIT BY DEMOCRATS
National Committee Chairman
Says Farmers Suffer Most

Topeka, Kan. Feb. 23.-Deeiaring
that the American farmers are the
principal victims of the European
chaos" cordell Hull. chairman OF tho
democratic national committee, as
sailed the administration OF President
Harding In a Washington's birthday
speech here yesterday.
'That band of republican political
conspirators who undermined ana
broke down the only program that has
yet been offered for the satisfactory
dealing without domestic and inter-
national affairs. has much to answer
for" he declared. q
They held the nation and the world
by the throat in 1920. This was
the most disgraceful period OF par
tisanship In our history. The direct
result of their assault on the program
and policies of the recent democratic
administration, of their failure to offer
any substitute policies, and of their
championship of the abominable
doctrine of aloofness, has involved
greater losses upon the people of Am
erica than Americas total cost of the
World war.
1T has been a matter Of supreme
to arrogant republican
national leaders that the farmers and
other producers of substantial sur
pluses in this country are wholly de-
pendent upon sound reciprocal foreign
markets for their chief prosperity at
home, and that the American farmers
-oday are the principal victims of
European chaos.
Republican leaders not only fooled
and almost destroyed the American
farmer through their policy toward
Europe, but they unsuccessfully en-
1eavored to fool him with an absurd |
ariff remedy during the past two
ears. While millions of farmers were |
lriftipg into bankruptcy in 1921, the |
'epublican congress and administra- |
ion prescribed dose of high tariff |
protection as a sure and immediate |
ure. |
Under the operation Of these new
ariff rates no sophistry or clap-trap
vas ever more completely exploded
han the old republican fraud that the
ariff would bring the farmer prosper i
ty. The value of farm products fell
if 33 1-3 per cent in 1921 despite
his so-called emergency tariff.
Wheat was selling at S1.53 a bush
| when this tariff law was enacted in
lay, 1921, but it went down each
1onth following until it reached vir-
ally s1.00 in December.
"A high protective tariff system in
.merica at this time flies in the face
every sound economic law. 1t will
e the chief domestic issue in 1924"
