dental candidate ON the La Fol.
lette ticket, arrived here today for

in. an address at the banquet.
He paid high tribute to the sup.
port given the Progressive ticket
by the Hearst newspapers. and
quoted from q signed editorial by
William Randolph Hearst, In which
it was stated that both old bar
ties are controlled by reactiOnary
interests.
Referring to the Republican and
Democratic national conventions,
Young Bob said: '"They furnished
conclusive evidence that unless
the Progresslves raised their
standard in this campaign there
could and would be no Joining of
fundamental issues"
He declared that the names Of
La Toilette and Wheeler had been
put on the ballots in the fokty-
eight States within two months.
States Seen in Line
Reports from New England he
said, indicate that the Progressive
ticket can carry three of those
States and have fighting chance
for the others. Southern cam.
paign, managers, he said. believe
they can deliver to La Toilette
three States of the solid South.
He stated that ,''even hostile OBJ
servers conceded Wisconsin, Min.
nesota, North and South Dakota,
Montana and Nebraska to the Pro.
gressive cause" Continuing, he
said:
THE Republican platform is a
frank declaration of reaction. The
Democratic platform Is q meaning
less straddle on the one or two
economic issues mentioned subject
to a liberal Interpretation in the
West by the head of that ticket
and conservative construction in
the East by their candidate for
Vice President.
mot a single basic economic
issue would have found .place in
this campaign had not the Pro-
gressives entered the contest.
ITO my mind, the prophesies Of
campaign managers and their as
sistants are interesting but not con.
elusive l do hope have con-
WINGED you; as / have been con-
WINGED, slowly, but surely, by the
uHHhSIdkdDAe pOALlCdI signs OF SUD-
stance and potential power which
this movement has shown down
to this hour, that with the proper
support upon the part of those
ready ana able to lend aid in this
fight to recover control of Govern
Inent for the people. Robert M.
La Toilette and Burton X. Wheeler
can be elected in November"
Senator Wheeler Speaks.
Senator Burton Wheeler, running
mate on the La Toilette ticket, also
addressed the banquet gathering.
He declared that his speaking tour
through New England has con-
vinced him that New England is
rot safe for, the Republican party
this year. 1t IL not safe for the
New England candidate nominated
by the Republican party"
Pennsylvania, he declared, "offers
another pleasing prospect" He
declared that the labor vote in the
keystone State would be over
whelmingly for the Progressive
ticket.

Short Of Money Now.
Not only is the Navy Department
claiming that its funds win be In
adequate If the slashes ordered by
the Budget Bureau are approved
by President Coolidge. but naval
officials point out that even now
the navy is short of money, which
has resulted in orders limiting gen.
eral repairs to 70 per cent and
has caused at least one first-line
battleship and scores of smaller
vessels to be placed out of com

Another naval problem which
came before the Cabinet today and
which will be taken up again upon
Secretary Wilbur's return to Wash

tleships to increase their firing
range.
There is a diplomatic angle to
this problem in view Of the repre-
sensations made by the British gov

American Navy to raise the gun
turrets.
Great Britain holds that the
elevating Of guns would constitute
la violation Of the Washington
naval treaty.

In naval circles there is a def

idge will support the Navy in its
plan to carry before the next
session of Congress a recommen-
dalton for. an appropriation OF at
least $6,000,000 to put through the
gun elevating program.
Difference In Ranges.
Naval experts point out, basing
their statements on the best avail.
able information from abroad, that
the twenty-five capital ships of the
British Navy have a gun elevation
of 20 degrees, while the American
guns may not be raised higher
than rs degrees. Twenty-Five
degrees gives firing range Of
23,S 800 yards, while only 10000
yards 10 possible with the lower
elevation.
Reports are current that Great
Britain has suggested to the
powers which signed the Washing
ton naval treaty, including the
United States and Japan, that q
conference be held to decide the
naval gun question for once and
all. The attitude of the United
States toward new conference on
this question has not been made
known, the Governments policy for
the present being that all American
rights under the treaty will be
maintained, but that no step is
contemplated that would lead in.
