lieve ourselves and the other nations
from the old theory of competitive
ornaments. In spite of all the ar
>guments in favor of great military
forces, no nation ever had an army
large enough to guarantee it against
attack in t me of peace or to insure
its victory in time of war. No nation
ever will. Peace and security are
more likely to result from fair and
honorable dealings and mutual agree
! ments for a iimitat' on of ornaments
among nations. than by any attempt
at competition in sQuadrons and
bat a'ions. No doubt this country
could. if il wished to spend more
money, make a better military force,
but that is only part of the problem
which confronts our Government.
The real question is whether spend
ing more money to make better
mi itary force would really make a
better country l would be the last
to 'sparage the military art. 1t is
an honorable and patriotic calling of
the HI CHEST rank. But can see no
merit in any unnecessary expendl-
ture of money to hire men to build
fleets and carry muskets when in
ternationa9 relations and agreements
permit the turning Of such resources
into the making o. good roads, the
blu Id ng of better homes, the pro-
motion of education, and all the
other arts of peace which minister
to the advancement of human well
fare Happily. the position of our
country is. such among the other
nations Of the world that we have
been and shall be warranted in pro-
ceeding is this direction"
1t seems to us that this argument
IS prac ically unanswerable. And
again he speaks truly and command
ingly:
"Our forefathers had seen so much
of militarism, and suffered so much
from it, that they desired to Danish
it forever. They believed and de-
clared in at least one of their State
CONSTITUTIONS LHaC Tue hlltdiy pO"ei
should be subordinate to and gov
erned by the civil authority. 1t is
for this reason that any organization
of men in the military service bent
on lnfaming the public mind for
the purpose of forcing Government
action through the pressure OF public
opinion is an exceedingly dangerous
and precedent. This is
so whatever form 1t might take,
whether it be for the purpose of
infuenc ng the Executive, the Leg
stature or the heads of departments.
1t lis for the civil authority to deter
mine what appropriations shall be
granted, what appointments shall be
made, and what rules shall be adopt
ed for the conduct Of its armed
forces. Whenever the military power
starts debating to the civil au
thority, by whatsoever means adopt
ed, the liberties Of the country are
beginning to end. National defense
should at all tines be supported but
any form of mfitarism should be
resisted.

of Problems.

Eizo Sakai, Japan's wealthy knight

acts in championing the cause of the
working classes of Nippon. stopped
in Washington long enough yesterday
TO pay his respects to President Cool
idge and express a few views regard
ing the American laboring man.
His visit to the White House was
of brief duration. Through the medium
of an interpreter. Mr.. Sakai extended
the greetings of his legion of followers
to the President and received, in turn,
the latter's felicitations.
incidentally, the oriental visitor let
it be known that he will call the mem

ton, the Nippon Seigidan, together
for a great public demonstration when
the new American Ambassador to
Japan, yet to be appointed, is sent to
Toxic.
"Workers Temperamental."
In an interview yesterday after
noon Mr.. Sakai expressed surprise
that the American workingmen of
several trades have gone on strike for
higher wages. Situations such as
these, he said, require great tact on
the part of employers of labor. and
he indicated his belief that perhaps
the employers OF America do not eXer-
else the proper sort Of sympathy with
the problems of labor. Mr.. Sakai said
he wondered why higher wages should
be sought when America already is
paving more than other countries. but

OPENING FRIDAY
st. Martins Building on
North Capitol Street Prac-
ticaIIy Completed.

What promises to be one of the
best-equipped parish clubhouses in the
Capital is being completed in the old

ing on North Capitol street near L
street, and will be opened Friday

the parish will be admitted to the
gymnasium classes and to use of the
library, while all other features Will

The recent completion of the new
parochial school building on Mount
St. Martin, opposite the new Langley
Junior High School, has made pos
sible the establishment of the club
house. The building on North Capitol
street has been remodeled as place
of entertainment and recreation for
the old and young of the parish.
Entire Building Wired.
The entire building has been wired
and equipped with new electric light
fixtures, partitions have been remov-
ed. new floors laid. shower-baths in
stalled, and furniture and other neces-
sary equipment ordered which Will
make the building a model parish
recreational and social center.
A superintendent for the building
has been engaged, and an experienced
have charge of the gymnasium
classes and related activities.
The top floor, which has gallery
for the accommodation of spectators.
will be used for the gymnasium
classes, basket ball and other indoor
games, and will also prove desirable
hall for dances, which have in the
past been held in the basement. The
major portion of the first floor has
been divided into two large rooms, one
of which will be comfortably furnish
ed as a lounge and the other as
library. Dressing rooms and show
ers have also been constructed on
this floor, in addition to a committee
room, office, and a stand for cigars,
candy and soft drinks. The base

The clubhouse was planned some
months ago by Rev. M. j. Riordan,
pastor of St. Martins Church, who
has had the active cooperation of the
National Council of Catholic Men in
carrying out the project. The new
organization will be known as St.
Martins Club, and will be operated
as an independent activity of the
parish by a house committee appoint
ed by the pastor. Special interest has
been taken in providing for women
and children. who. while not eligible
for membership in the club, will be
admitted to gymnasium classes and
have the use of the library, as well as
other privileges to be arranged by
the house committee.

employers should mingle more with

Mr. Sakai is en- route to Japan from
Genoa, where he attended the inter
national railroad conference. He Is
president of the Bantam Railway Co.
and director of the Toxic Gulf Land
Co.. directing several thousand of
workers. AS "Kyokaku," or knight of
the people, he wields uncanny power

him as their father" and guide.
The sacred title Of Kyokaku was
conferred on Mr.. Sakai by his foster
father, Kokayashi-Sahei, who died
nine years ago. At the latter's wish
Mr.. Sakai married Sahei's daughter.

Involved Accusations of False Bill.
ing-Settlement Is Expected
to Be Made.

The Department of Justice has
agreed to terminate Immediately the
litigation involving charges of false
billing against the General Petroleum
Corporation and the Utah Oil Co.
The cases resulted from indictments
returned in southern California in
1920 charging the companies with
violation OF the Elkins act in
selling a certain commodity as Pc
troleum gas oil instead of gasoline.

Since the indictments were returned
the director general of railroads has
brought suits against them to recover
alleged underpayments on account Of
the alleged false billing. and the fact
that these suits are pending influenced
the Department Of Justice to ac-
quiesce in suggestions that its liti-
cation be ended.
The director general and the Inter.
state Commerce Commission have
concurred in the action of the de.
partment, and it was understood,
although there was no official state

POSTAL BILL IS.
LIKELY T0BE
SIGNED
Pay Measure Expected to Be
Given Prompt Approval
by President

Congress sent the new omnibus
postal bill to the White House to-
day for President Coolidge's ap-
prevail.
The measure, which will become
a law as soon as the President
signs it, will provide sos, DOC, 600
wage increases for postal en-
ployes and exact a similar amount
of increased postal revenues from
higher postal rates. This provi-
sion was added by Congress to
meet the objections raised by the
President when he vetoed a pay
increase bill last year. In its
present form, it is said to meet
the Presidents approval.
Corrupt Practices Rider
The bill also included a new cor.
rupt practices act, providing for
complete publicity on campaign ex-
penditures and contributions and
limiting the campaign funds Of
Senators and Congressman. A
limit Of $4,000 to $25 900 for Sena-
tors and $4,000 to $4,000 for Con-
gressmen was provided, according
to the population Of the candidates
district.
The postal rate advances will fall
heavily on parcel post users through
the levying of a two-cent service
charge on all packages. Existing
rates will be retained but a new
expeditions service will he added
for an additional cost Of IS cents
First class rates will remain the
same as at present except that pos
