H0LLANDERS
ARE FOR DIS
ARMAMENT

The Hague, Holland, Dec. Eff
the dcafcning applause that greeted
Professor Van Embden's recent anti
militaristic address is any indication
of the general feeling of the country,
the people of the Netherlands may
be said to be virtually solid for dis
armament.
The spokesman for the abolition Of
the army and navy met General Sny-
ders, formerly commander in chief of
the Dutch army, at public debate
before a packed audience in the big
gest assembly hall of the Dutch royal
residence. Thousands of people be-
longing to all classes Of society ea-1
gerly followed the arguments on both
sides. A battery of sound amplifiers
had been installed for the benefit of
Il multitude outside which had been
crowded out.
Both speakers agreed that despite
the Geneva conventions the menace
of war had not been wholly lifted
from the world, and they cnvlsaged
Hollands position in the eventuality
Of another great war in the light of,
the fact that the country had miracu-
lousy escaped from being dragged
into the last world conflict. How
could Hollands future safety be best
insured, they asked.
By total disarmament, the profess
sor argued. Never by disarmament
but only by adequate preparation to
keep the enemy out, declared the
general.
Professor Van Emblem made his
audience shudder by rccounting the
horrors of gas warfare, citing reports
by Brigadier General Amos Alfred
Fries, chief of .hc American Chemical
Warfare service, Major General Will
liam Luther Sibert and General Task
cr H. Bliss. "If the next war finds
terly and irretrievably lost" he de-
clared.
General Snyders agreed that Hol-
land coveted nothing, and that the
next war could never be an aggres
sive one as far as Holland was con-
cerned He pointed out that Hol
land was an agricultural, not an in
dustrial country, and therefore i'll
equipped for the production Of war
like material. AS to gas warfare, his
opinion was that it had come to stay,
and timely defensive precautions
were essential. He said that injur-
les by gas were not necessarily more
horrible than those produced by red
hot shell splintcrs. How, he de-
handed, could the country be saved
| from being overrun by belligerent
unless it possessed the means Of re-
| sisting encroachments.
Prospects Of further heavy military
expenditure, as foreshadowed in the
| budget estimates, had not missed
their effects on the audience. Gener-
al Snyders' appeal for preparedness
was punctuated with shouts of "No
more money for war;" and the, end
of his speech was drowned in tu-
multi. The meeting broke up with
the audience singing anti militaristic
songs

fell fighting for his ideals. Not even
his bitterest antagonists can assign
to him aught but sincerity of purpose
and a loftiness of motive. His patrio-
tism cannot be questioned. Though
he was learned, though he was a
leader of men, his greatest weakness
was apparently his failure to under
stand men-to properly appraise hu-
man nature, and to shape his pro-
gram of idealism to fit the demands
of praticality.

Wilson with other American states

Lincoln was spared the dangers of

THE WORM TURNS

vrHE democrats who sought to make
i political capital out of the naval
reserve oil leases have broken their
picks. The noisemakers have subsidized
and glee has turned to gloom.
All of which is to good purpose.
Now the investigation of the leases
may proceed along orderly, sane and
common sense lines, reasonably free
from partisanship. The congressional
investigating committee has uncover
cd enough to convince the public that
such an inquiry was justified and that
there have been some very question
able, if not criminal, proceedings IN
the federal oil lands transactions.
The attempt of the democrats to
carve a campaign issue out of the
investigation met sudden collapse
when Dehony let it be known that
from the same sources from which
Secretary Fall received his loans,
large sums had been paid to William
G. McAdoo, Franklin X. Lane, Lind
lev M. Garrison, Thomas w. Gregory,
all former members of Wilson's cab
met, and George Creel, President Will
sons war time censor and adminstra-
ton press agent.
It is true that none of these ac-
cepted their oil retainers until after
they had retired from their official
positions. 1t is equally true that not
one of these men was hired by the
oil interests because of his indivi-
dual abilities, but because he was
a democrat and was supposed to have
entree with the democratic admin
istration. Not one of them sold his
services, but his influence, to those
interests who were seeking valuable
concession from the government.
There was nothing criminal about
their employment. But the democratic
accusers, in their attempt to brand
the republican administration with an
oil scandal, had gone far beyond the
republican administration with an
charge of criminality.
AS the investigation continues and
the muddle grows, watch Coolidge.
It is the belief of this paper that not
only will President Coolidge emerge
with absolutely clean hands but will
stand higher in the public esteem
than ever before. So far he has re-
fused to be carried off his feet but
he has acted with prQmptness, cour-
age and fairness. He appointed for
mer Attorney General Gregory, as
one member of the special counsel to
prosecute the case. When Gregory's
connection with the oil interests was
disclosed he promptly withdrew the
appointment. His directions to the

OUR ADVANTAGE

THE warm days which have coaxeo
L the crocuses through the ground
and brought with them the hint Of
spring, only emphasize the marked
advantages which the Kennewick dis
trict enjoys over many other agricul-
tural sections.
In most agricultural sections the
first spring-like days bring the sug-
gestion of planting time. In Kenne-
wick they bring not only the sugges-
ton of planting time but of har-
vest time as well. Within little more
than sixty days Kennewick will have
begun the harvest of one Of its most
profitable crops-asparagus. Before
asparagus harvest is over strawber-
ries will be ripe. Then comes cherries,
apricots, early spuds and other crops
in a never-ending procession.
Just think what this community
would be up against had it to wait
until next fall and winter for re-
turns from hay, or apples, or wheat.
And as we think we can easily under
stand the plight of the one-crop ag-
ricultural communities.
Dramatically Kennewick Possesses
a distinct advantage over most ag-
ricultural communities Of the North
west. The right thing to do is to make
the most of that advantage. More
grass, more berries, more cows, and
more chickens is a program that can't
go far wrong.

His orders were: prosecute these

there is any civil liability it will De
enforced; if there is any fraud it will

President Coolidge's past record
as a public official is sufficient
guarantee that he means exactly
what he says.
