Navy Needs of America

quested to encourage, for the further
limitation of naval armament, to which
the United States is Signatory, the Pres
ident Is hereby authorized and en-
powered to suspend in whole or in part
any Of the naval construction au-
thorized under this act
Certainly the passage of the cruiser
bill with such provision is direct in
vitation to the other nations possessed
of sea power to make a real effort to
the passage of the bill can we conclu-
sively demonstrate to other nations our
firm determination to maintain Ameri-
can rights to the free use of the seas
for our citizens and our commerce.
Only those who have studied Eu-
ropean conditions by visiting Europe in
recent months with that object in view
can realize the dangerous and imminent
possibilities of another conflict into
which our Nation would be drawn If it
lacks sea power sufficient to guarantee
respect of our rights. The World War
remade the map of Europe, but instead
of limiting or eliminating old national
hatreds and distrusts it created score
of new causes for conflict.
Diplomacy in Saddle.
The people of Europe, and of the Far
East as we'll, desire lasting peace based
upon justice But the diplomats of the
old school still retain the reins of gov
ernment and are driving toward the
brink of war in order to maintain pos
session of advantages obtained in the
last war.
Until the people Of Europe are able
to reorganize the diplomacy of their
governments and to substitute states
mansflip for guile and craft in dealing
with the great problem of disarmament
the United States must maintain a first
line of defense capable of meeting any
emergency.
An adequate American Navy is, in
the present state of world affairs. our
best guaranty of lasting peace based

Senator William E. Borah,

to the movement started by
Hearst newspapers to indict
Fl. M. Blackner and j. 2.

Caraway Also Approves
Senator Caraway of Arkansas. also
a member of the Senate Judiciary
Committee, also expressed himself
today as favoring the indictment
of the two oil men. Senator Nor
ris, chairman of the Senate Jul
dietary Committee, still is engaged
in a study of the proposition, and
expects to hold conferences with
Federal officials at an early date.
The intimation that the tndlct'
ment will be sought in the State
rather than the Federal courts was
made in The Washington Times
last Saturday by Senator George
w. Norris, chairman Of the Senate
Judiciary Committee. He Is now
convinced that this is the correct
course to follow.
The proposal of the Hearst news
papers is expected to result in the
extradition of the oil men on q
conspiracy charge before the pres.
emit session of Congress adjOurns.
They can thus be brought before
the Senate Teapot Dome investl-
eating committee and forced to
tell all they know about the devious
operations Of the Continental
Trading Company.

POLICE:

Representative Thomas q.
Blanton leaped to the front
today in the police trial Of
Patrolman Orville Staples, as
he had promised to do. At
lacking the police and their
first witness, a colored boot
logger, Blanton drew from the
witness admission that he had
been police informer on
liquor caches.
Representative Blanton was cut
short by w. II. Whaley. chairman
of the Trail Board. who declared
that only Officer Staples was on
trail. At the Texans request. the
Board retired for a conference.
Upon their return Chairman Whaley
ruled such cross-exa mination out
of order and Blanton said he in
tended to bring new charges be-
fore another tribunal.

outset Of the hearings and they
came from an unexpected source.
