Number Less Than in Other Years
for Animal Rescue League
Hospitality.

Some three dozen horses were
guests of the Animal Rescue League
yesterday for the annual dinner ten
dered equines by, that organization.
The menu included choice alfalfa
and a peck of oats per guest, with
almost unlimited apples, carrots and
turnips thrown in.
Compared with previous years, il
was thin equine line which stopped
for the annual event yesterday. Time
was when the number Of Christmas
guests of the league numbered far
over d hundred.
'The@dinner was in charge OF Mrs

Offers Secret Reports.
Mr.. Wilbur declined to make any
statement as to whether the American
Navy, all factors considered, is equal
to that of Great Britain, but said
American naval experts had made ex-
haustive studies which he would be
glad to furnish the committee in strict
confidence.
The committee was informed that
the American Government had pur-
posely made it's ships slower than
Great Britain's, its architects believ-
ing ii advisable to put weight in
armor and guns rather than in in
creased engine facilities. In this way,
Mr.. Wilbur said, it is believed that all
conditions OF warfare can be met more
advantageously. Discussing the speed
question, he declared that, after all,
the mobility of feet is determined
by Its slow vessels and he said Great
Britain had several capital ships I'M
able to move at high speed.
Pressed for a further statement if
he believed gun elevation bill should
be passed, the Secretary said the Navy
Department had neither the DISPOSE
ton nor the right to ask for an APP
preparation in violation of the Presi-
dents financial program. He agreed,
however, that elevation of guns would
be "a distinct addition to the fighting
power of the fleet"
Representative Vinson of Georgia,
ranking Democrat on the committee,
asked whether 1t was not true that
unless there were an international
conference to limit auxiliary craft,

"If you mean that we would be
forced to bring our Navy up to that

Secretary.

carried out, on the American ves-
sells, Mr. Wilbur declared, I'VE would
have as much advantage over the
British as they have over us now"

JOHN SHOOK NAMED
ATLANTA WARDEN
Idaho Man Has Had Notable
Career in Prison Work,
Stone Says.

Formal announcement of the APP
pointmeut of John Shook, warden OF
the Idaho State penitentiary, as
warden of the Atlanta Federal prison
was announced today by Attorney
General stone. Mr.. Shook will take
Office January 90.
Mr.. Stone has made an extensive
survey of the Federal prison system
1t is his hope to have it stand out as
model, and he has repeatedly de
clared that this can be accomplished
only by placing men well trained in
prison work in charge.
Well Fitted for Place.
Mr.. Shook. Mr.. Stone said, has had
a varied career and is eminentIy fit-
ted by experience and training" for
the Atlanta place.
The Attorney General explained
that Mr. Shook distinguished himself
during the gold rush to Dawson.
while United States marshal when he
captured two notorious bandit gangs.
Mr.. SHOOK" he added, later had
charge of the jail at Sitka, Alaska,
and served as United States marshal
in various parts of the territory until
1904, when he returned to Idaho to
engage in farming and the livestock
industry. He was twice elected to
the Idaho State Legislature In 1909,
he was appointed warden of the Idaho
State penitentiary where he served
for years"
Melted for Work.
Mr.. Shook resigned as warden in
2917, but was reappointed in February
last year to take charge of the peni-
tentiary again, because it had gotten
in a deplorable condition through the
Tioting of convicts He has since
put the prison in excellent condition.
The policy to which the Attorney
Generals office is most committed is
that of providing labor for every ply
sically fit inmate in the prisons That
is one reason Warden Shook was
selected for the Atlanta post, because
he has been successful in keeping
prisoners employed eight hours a day
in useful labor"

would be a violation of the naval
treaty.
81 may add, that in view of the
detailed description given by the
Navy Department of the nature of
the changes which would be neces-
sary to elevate the turrent guns on
the capital ships retained by the
United States these changes appear
to be of a minor sort, and in my
opinion would not constitute a recon
struction of the ship within the mean
ing which should be attributed to the
provision of the naval treaty.
II am of the opinion, however, that
while such changes as would be con-
templated in the case of America
ships would not constitute violation
of the terms of the treaty, they would
tend to evoke the competition which

eminent to Mitigate. 1t may also be
stated that so far as the United
States is concerned the question APP
pears to be of consequence only in
relation to certain of the specified
retained ships, and these ships under
the replacement clause of the treaty
are to be replaced within 10 or IL
years"
Economy Placed First.
Although he declared the Navy De-
partment wanted a Navy that would
accord with the 5-5-3 ratio all down
the line. Secretary Wilbur told the
committee that because of the ad-
ministration's economy policy he
could not recommend a gun elevation
program nor indorse a pending S70,-
000, 900 bill for new construction.
Reaffirming his previous statements
before a House appropriations sub
committee, Mr.. Wilbur declared it was
the policy of his department to see
the treaty ratio applied to auxiliaries
as well as capital ships, so that the
Navy as a whole would be the equal
of Great Britain and proportionately
stronger in every class than that of
Japan.
With the completion of certain re
pairs on the battleship Florida. he
said, the battle fleet itself would be
in first-class condition. The Florida,
he added, would be put in condition
as soon as money is available. on
that basis, he asserted, there was nc

were not unlike Dante's as far
as fiery horrors were concerned.
Almost until the present day the
general idea of the state of things

When my elder brother home

The study of earthquakes, more
than anything else, reshaped the
opinion OF science quite recently
about the interior Of the globe.
1t was found that under a sud.

from center to circumference like
a ball OF elastic steel. Then, as
in all such cases, and no less
where science is concerned, for
that, too, has its fads and fash
