Hints Magruder Charges

Augusta, Maine, Oct. 26 P}-Al- . though he was not named directly, i reference was made to Rear Admir- al Thomas r. Magruder's recent ma gazino article on The Navy and Economy" by Governor Ralph c. Brewster today, in a navy day ytatement.
 For a century" he stated, some Of the finest and fastest ships, both wood and steel, in the American navy were built in the state of : Maine. For the last ten years, al , though our navy has now reached record size and its appropriations have enormously increased, no con- struCtion work has been allocated 70 the private wards of Maine.
 AS a, result, the two fine steel shipyards at Bath have necessarily been closed, and stagnation has en- sued. With those shipyards closed further naval construction by priv ate yards of the type which they turned out, has been authorized but this relief came too late for Maine
 Meanwhile, the keel of the last submarine included in the democra- tic program Of ten years ago, has been laid at Kittery and this boat will very shortly b-e launched. No further construction has thus far been authorized.
 Advocates Private Construction cap,o ipSi5jcrs ,-cic1c closed the yards at Bath are now heard advocating private construc- ton in place of governmental work. Meanwhile, one of the ranking admirals in the United States navy intimates that s100, 100000 is being wasted on the navy at this time, and that We are only receiving S200 000,- GOO worth of navy for an eXpendi- ture of s30o,000,0 0,0OO This is natur- ally a matter of most intimate con, cern to any American interested in the navy of the United States"

Moscow Might Remember Waterloo

Russia has come to the crossroads. occupying q
sixth of the earths area, with population of 145-
600 OOO she has to run counter to the British empire
with quarter of the and population of the
globe
One or the other must clap on the brakes or
there will be collision. Which means that Russia
must do the braking
In all candor that is what Russia odt to do, Tor
her own sake as well as for the sake the peace of
Europe and the world.
Russia has a right to have any kind of govern
ment she pleases. 1t makes little difference whether
we like it or not. 1t is of our business.
But it is poor rule that only works way, If
Russia is entitled the kind of government she likes,
Britain and the rest of the world entitled to the
kinds of governments they like
There can be little doubt that Russia has mixed
in the affairs of the other nations far more than she
should She may not be doing such things officially,
and it may be she claims that she has given up all
idea of the world revolution preached by the Boil
shevists at the time the present regime to
power.
But she has been doing much talking already
that she has half of the nations earth scared stiff
1t is nobodys fault but hers if these nations see a
raw-head-and bloodybones lurking in every shadow.
She started off by threatening to kindle revolution
in every so-caled capitastic country in the world
and some, Britain included, took her at her word.
Rightly or wrongly Britain regards Russia a
to her empire ana all history goes to show
that when Britain thinks her empire is in peril she
never stops until that peril is removed.
Exactly 112 years ago this week Napoleon Bona
parte found this out to his cost. Britain regarded
him as menace and though it took ten years and
European coalition to do it, she finally brought him
to Waterloo.
We confess have idea how she can go
about doing it, but advice to Russia is, if she
does not want to taken for the specer Britain and
certain other nations to take her for she
