COOLIDGE FAVORS
ARMS SACRIFICE
Trenton Speech Throws Chal-
lenge to Butler in Demand
for 30 Fighting Ships.

Trenton, N. president Coolidge,
speaking here on the sesquicentennial
anniversary of the turning point in
our War for independence, called on
his countrymen for new declaration
of independence that will free our
own and other nations from instinc-
tive reliance on military force entirely
for protection.
In terms that were illustrated by
his recent scrapping of the construc-
ton plans for three cruisers author
lied by congress and postponing con-
struction of two dirigible airships, the
President proposed that the United
States without waiting upon interna-
tional agreements proceed single
handed, at whatever sacrifice, to set
the Christian example of abstention
from competitive arming while other
powers arm.
81 believe" Mr. Coolidge solemnly
asserted as he neared the close Of his
celebration of Washington's victories,
81 believe we are strong enough and
brave enough to resist another domi-
nation of the world by the military
spirit through our own Independent
action"
The significance of the utterance
was not lost upon those who have OBJ
served the evolution of the Coolidge
policy designed to check revival OF
competition in naval ornaments which
the President is convinced was a
manifestation of the military spirit"
that produced the World war. The
President is determined that the Uni
ted States shall not encourage re-
newal of competition in building the
classes of ships on which the Wash
ington conference placed no limita-
ton. Britain and Japan each has
more cruisers than America and is
building more but Mr.. Coolidge has
decreed that we shall not keep pace
with either.

Oil Titles Revert to Mexico

Mexico City-Approximately $780,
100000 worth of American owned oil
fields and oil rights reverted to the
ownership Of the Mexican govern
ment, although the reversion was the
oretical, since the government has
made no move to nationalize or other
wise to dispose of this vast property.
The Mexican oil laws, alleged by
the United States department of
state to be confiscatory, became ef-
fective. A few hours before the laws
came into effect, President Gales is
sued a statement in which he reiter-
ated his intention that the laws should
not be interpreted in such a way as
to harm legitimate interests and in
vestments in Mexico.
