Need Technical
7 alent i'm NAVY

the maintenance of the 5-5-3 naval ra-
ito of the Washington treaty.
1t Is estimated that 10000 of the &c.
600 provided by law will be due to re-
tire at the expiration Of their terms of
enlistment, while the navy will be
lucky to get 40 per cent of these to re-
enlist. This constant turnover from
year to year Is regarded as the weak
feature of the fleet.
Longer Enlistment Periods.
In stressing the problem in It's rela-
ton to personal efficiency naval experts
point out that the British enlistment
term Is twelve years, while the Japa-
nese term is ten years, thus assuring
these countries permanent personnel
of trained men which the United
States cannot hope to have at the rate
of the present yearly turnover.
Doing away with the war enlistment
periods of two years and three years
and going back to the four-year period
will help to some extent, but even at
that it Is estimated that, in order to
have personnel sufficient to maintain
the efficiency ratio of the 5-5-3 treaty.
the United States should allow itself at
all times larger personnel than Great
Britain has. while at the present the
total British personnel is 10000 men
greater than of the United States.
Not Enough Radio Men.
The constant turnover is particularly
felt in the bigger and more technical
phases of naval work. AS an example
of this 1t Is pointed out that the navy
today is unable to maintain anything
like the requisite quota of radio teleg-
raphers, although radio communica-
ton Is the very nerve center of naval
operations.
It Is estimated that there should be
enough of these to take care not only
of the fleet but of every shore station
under the American flag.
Development of expert gunnery also
Is severely handicapped by the same
situation as regards personnel shifting.
Down In the fleet it Is not at all I'M
usual to see officers of a battleship
throwing dice to decide who shall get
an electrician newly assigned to duty.
The demand now is that congress
put some kind of premium on technical
ability in the navy and allow compen-
sation which would enable the navy to
keep this class in the service for long
term of years.

Prince of Wales Picks
Beans at Big Banquet

London. = English hostesses who
have been vying among themselves to
have the popular Prince of Wales dine
with them have been dismayed to find
that his royal highness has very ab-
stemious tastes and eschews all except
the simplest dishes.
One of London's most aristocratic
and wealthy families set a regal BAN
quet before the prince lately, only to
find that their guest passed it all by
and chose a plate of cold ham and
beans.
English physicians attribute the
princes good health to his frugal diet,
abstention from all rich, highly sea-
soned dishes, especially flesh foods,
much outdoor exercise, and q cheer!,
optimistic disposition.

WOMEN NEED SWAMP ROOT

Thousands of women have kidney and
bladder trouble and never suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in healthy con-

to become diseased.
Pain in the back, headache, loss of am

Balboa Heights, Cana, Zone.-An 49,

first sailing craft of any description to
pass through the Panama canal under

The little vessel, manned by Lieut..

Ill. j. Grieser, swimming instructor
started from Cristobal at G n. m. and
locked the same evening at Balboa at
S:45.
The frail craft squeezed its way
into the great locks alongside of huge
steel frelghters, was raised or lowered
to the level of the next lock, and
passed on to repeat the process until
1t had negotiated the entire lock sys-
tenn. The tolls were II cents.

Moscow.-Too much bread promises
to be Russia's dilemma in 1923.
From 1917 until 1922 bread was the
most precious thing In Russia. A farm
er could trudge into Moscow with a
small sack Of grain and trade it for a
grand piano or anything which the
hungry city jewellers had to offer. Now
the same peasant could walk from one
end of Russia to the >ther and, except
ing In few isolated famine districts,
could not get jackknife for the same
sack of grain.
If the harvest of this year turns out
as expected, Russia will have surplus
OF grain which could be sold abroad.

EXPECT BIC CROPS.
Conditions in Western Canada
Please Farmers.
Seeding Has Been Begun Earlier Than
for Many Years, and Soil ls
in Perfect Shape.

With weather conditions highly ia
yorable, the farmers of Western Can
ada, with the exception probably of
portion of Manitoba, have completed
seeding from ten to fifteen days earlier
than for some years past. In some
parts of Manitoba there were floods
which delayed seeding, but they have
abated, and left the land In good shape
for quick work and speedy germina-
ton. In Saskatchewan soil conditions
for seeding were never better. With
generous quantity Of snow, which after
melting left needed moisture, and an
other snowstorm after seeding was
finished, there was an ideal condition
created. From all parts of Alberta
there came the best of reports as to
rainfall and snow moisture, leaving the
ground in the condition required for
the prospects of u good crop.
Spring, as in most other parts of the
continent, was backward, but notwith-
standing this, as has been said, farmers
were able to get on the land earlier
than for some years. In fact, seeding
was practically commenced about the
18th of, April, which to many readers
may seem remarkable, when 1t is
known that several hundred miles far
ther south 1t was not possible to do
spring seeding for several days later.
Reports to hand on the 18th Of May
state that wheat is up above the
ground in q great many places. oats
are being sown, and corn planted.
Farm labor was scarce for awhile, but
the demand has fallen off. One fea-
ture Of the demand for farm help Is
that farmers are now employing help
by the year, at of course smaller wages
than those paid for special work. The
increasing tendency to employ help by
the year is evidence that farmers are
not relying solely upon wheat growing,
but are going out into other branches,
such as dairying, stock raising. etc.
The prospects in all portions of West
ern Canada were never brighter than
at present. Information regarding the
condition of the crops at any time will
be sent on request made to any Cana
dian government agent.-Advertise-

"a Greece were getting herself in bad.
Absolutely refusing to pay Turkey
reparations, either in cash or in ter
ritorial concessions along the Martha,
and threatening to quit the Lausanne
conference and resume hostilities un-
less the Turkish demands are with
drawn, she has placed the allied repre-
sentatiyes In most uncomfortable
position. Ismet Pasha is no less firm
than Venizelos and has formally asked
Sir Horace Rumbold what the attitude
of Great Britain will be in case the war
between Turkey and Greece is renewed.
Sir Horace, aided by the French, has
been trying to find ground for COM
promise, suggesting that Turkey be
given Karagatch. the west bank Of the
Martha and the railway from Kara
Catch to Constantinople, in lieu Of cash.
The Turks did not reply definitely, but
the Greeks asserted, informally. that
they would make no such offer.
Meanwhile both sides are preparing
for warfare. The Greek army in
Thrace. which Henry ]. Allen says
numbers 100000 men, Is lined up along
the Martha and the threat is that 1t
will march against Constantinople. A
considerable Greek fleet is cruising
about the entrance to the Dardanelles.
and the Turkish government has lodged
with the British protest against Its
presence there. The Turks assert that
If Greece wants war they are ready.
md that their troops in Anatolla can
reach Constantinople in two days.
while 1t would take the Greek army at
least fifteen days even without oppo-
sition. One Turkish general is quoted
as saying: "The Turks feel certain
that Greece will not start fight with
out allied support. For this reason
Turkish officials are threatening Mosul
and Syria, and those provoking or en-
couraging the Greeks to attack Con-
stantinople should take this into con-
slderation."
The Turks, 1t Is said, either have de-
stroyed or are ready to destroy all the
bridges over the Martha. 1t is known
that they have mined the bridge that
connects Karagatch with Adrianople.

They are however, still displayed
