wants no one spared In the Senate

truth of the matter.
Moreover, the President is determined
to expose the extremes to which big
Navy advocates went in working against
the purpose Of this Government In its
effort to bring about further naval dis
armament. He wants the public 70

ence at the Geneva naval conference
two years ago, and who was responsible
for it.

large shipbuilding corporations for what

of a naval understanding between the
United States and Great Britain.
President Hoover has already declared
himself in favor of q policy of naval
reduction instead of one of mere limita-
ton. In so far as auxiliary ships are con-
cerned. Parity, or naval equality, al
ready has been agreed upon between
Great Britain and the United States as
a basis Of discussion on the naval prob
lem. In order to meet the situation,
well informed circles consider 1t pos
sible that reshifting of the paper
program" of the American Navy might
be called for to meet the existing de-
sires Of President Hoover for either a
stringent limitation or reduction, giving
at the same time basic parity with
Great Britain.
The reduction policy, with its accom-
panying desire by the President to cut
taxes for naval expenditure, is one OF
the Presidents most intimate desires
and throughout the present negotiations
it Is known that he has steadfastly
worked toward this end.

Sheriff Finds 3 Dead
Pigs, Work Of Thief

Dickinson. N. D.. Oct. 16.-Thc
county sheriff's office here believes
a pig thief was interrupted by an
accident or suspicioned pursuit in this
vicinity recently and gained nothing.
The wanton destruction of three fine
porkers found with their threats cut
in true butcher style, as though for
the pork barrel, by Sheriff Wanner a
short distance from the main road just
a mile northeast of the city, indicates
to him, he says, that tho pigs werc
killed in some farm yard by neat stab
bling, loaded into a truck and hauled
to the point found.
An investigation in surrounding
country reveals no missing pigs, the
sheriff's office says, concluding that
they may have been brought some dis
lance. There were truck tracks in
the vicinity. The pigs were splendid
conditioned spring stock, weighing
each about 100 pounds. There were
two white ones and ene black.
