MONEY EOR THE NAVY

If the United States navy is SO weak and inferior
as some of the naval experts are trying to make out
it is certainly not because the American people have
been stngy in their naval contributions If there Is
one department of government that has been panaD-
ered it is the Navy Department.
Before the World War this country was spending
regularly its navy about two-thrds as much as
Great Britain The latter country Was' pursuing a
settled policy Of maintaining navy equal to those OF
any two other powers. In those years the United
States spent at half as much again France, and
more than Italy and Japan together. Only Great
Britain spent more.
Starting with our entrance into the war the
United States navy spent in the fiscal year of 1917 ST.
21400OOOC in 1918, $1915,000000 in 1919, $1,O76,
100000; in 1920 S757 600 900; in 1921, S425,9C0O00;
in 1922 s298 o00o0G in 1923 1.-THE present fiscal year)
S297,0o0,000.
Since 1920, the United States has spent consd-
erably more on its navy than its army, although
the war was supposed to have left the navy in good
shape
During most Of these years the naval authorities
have had nearly everything they wanted 1t seems
proper to ask, therefore if the navy is IN as bad CON
dton now as they say whose fault is it? Certainly,
not the fault of the taxpayers, at least.

San Bernardino Sun: There has been new
political deal down at San Diego among the he
publicans who are cunning for Congressman PM
Swings scalp, and his opponent for the primary
nomination in August will be Sheriff James {.
Byers who will fall heir to the opposition sup
port that had originally drafted Senator Ed.

Swing. By all reports, Sheriff Byers is splendld
sheriff, a high class citizen and fine fellow,
wherein he has nothing at all the advantage OF
Phil Swing, while the latter his him handicapped
by four years of experience at Washington.
We do not remember to have known OF a case
where the motive of political punishment entered
so strongly into the situation is already devel-
opng in this instance. The fight for Byers and
against Swing will be made in the district largely
by the San Diego Union and the Riverside Enter
prise with the Los Angeles Times bushwhacklng
from the side lines, and both the two former pap
ers have already let it be known that they are
opposing Swing, not because he has not been
successful member of the house OF representatives
and obtained astonishing prominence for one IN
his second term, but because he favored Senator
johnson in the senatorial for 1920, and be-
cause he was for Governor Stephens for renom-
ination in 1922. The Union and the Enterprise
must still be smarting from the defeat III one IN
stance and still intoxicated over the victory IN
the other for they seriously suggest their oppoSl-
ton to Congressman Phll SWING on such ground.
Can you beat it?
However we do not anticipate that congress

most active in the Richardson campaign IN 1922
