rying supplies to her great enemy And
that which was true of the Anglo
Napoleonic test of the fighting power
OF nations proved true also in the Amer
lean Civil War, in which the Federal
Navy, by drastic application of bel
l1gerent tactics, gradually Slapped every
combative resource of the Confederacy.
Despite the classic nature of the land
ano-sea contest between Napoleon and
England, the two kinds of fighting
power were pitted against each other
far more fully and scientifically in the
World War. Here, indeed, continent
fought with sea to the bitter end, and
the sea won. Navies not only stopped
overseas importations to and exports
from his enemy, but covered overseas
importations to the friends of the naval
powers. Fleets, in a word, set the world
IN motion against their foes and for
their friends, and the world was SUI
preme in the end-as it always will be-
AS sea power is ruling power. so the
naval nations should try their political
ethics with an especially powerful acid,
lest they lose their power. For power
and justice are welded in the mex
CRADLE scheme of things.

clude industrial and factory improve
mentS or building construction. A spe-
clal committee was set I'D at the De-
cember conference of the Chamber of
Commerce of the United States to make
a survey Of the prospects in these fields.
The effect of the drive, the Chief Ex-
ecutive was told by the steel companies.
already is beginning to show in their
orders which already have grown 70 a
volume beyond their expectations.
While the President was disclosing the
results of the drive, the Chamber of
Commerce of the United States said in
statement that no loss of momentum
had been shown in the business reports
10 the national business survey confer
ence committee.
The American Federation of Labor in
its monthly business survey said today
that employment probably would be low
for the first few months of the year, but
would improve later.
Looking ahead to 1880, it is obvious
that fewer automobiles will be manu-
featured, probably from 100000 to
100000 less it said.
There will, therefore, be less demand
for steel, and steel production also will
be lower, unless Offset by increased
structural demand. Certain factors
point to better year for building"
I'm building" it added, 1.-The recess
sion of the past few months has appar-
emily been checked, and for two months
contracts awarded have not declined
except seasonally. Owing to the small
volume of contracts awarded this year,
however, there is considerably less work
for building trades men now than at
this time last year."
Its survey said that the Presidents
conferences had given industrial leaders
new sense of responsibility in which
they had been called upon to act to-
gether in preserving business stability.
In earlier recessions they have acted
individually to protect their own inter-
ests, and often curtailment and lay
offs have intensified depression" it said.
"One of the main factors in averting
depression is maintenance of wages and
employment" it added. Never before
have manufacturers been so generally
willing to abandon wage reduction as
a means of reducing expense. Their
action indicates fuller realization of
the part working men and women play
In the Nations prosperity. Due, no
doubt, largely to the buying of wage
earners, retail sales have held practically
the same level in November and Deem
Der as last year."

BANK ROBBERS
ARREST EXPECTED
Virginian'S 17-Year-0Id Wife
Tells Police Florida Was
Intended Goal.


FREDERICK, Md, January A.
Police combing the mountains in this
section expect momentarily to arrest
Francis Lindsay, alleged robber of the
Farmers 81 Merchants Bank at HAM
ilton, Va, yesterday, who, after a wild
automobile chase through the two
States, left his car, occupied by his
wife and containing part Of the bank
loot, and fed.
The wife, Mrs. Elizabeth Lindsay, II
years old, denied any knowledge of the
robbery or Of the money found in the
car. From her cell last night she told
police that she had received a tele-
phone call from her husband yesterday
informing her to meet him; that they
were of for Florida" She said he
picked her up at Walkersville and they
started south. She was later released
without bond.
$2,367 Of Loot Returned.
Meanwhile bank officials at Hamilton
report that $2,367 has been returned
to them. A shortage of $1,879 is re-
ported.
The lone unmaSked bandit shortly
after noon yesterday walked into the
bank and engaged Cashier Theodore
Reid in conversation.
"It's warm here" he told Reid; at
think I'll stay a while. My little girl
got a gold piece for Christmas. Have
you got one here tor my little boy?"
Reid nodded and went to the vault
and the bandit slipped through the
door in the cashiers cage, following
him to the vault.
Put 'em up" said the robber and
Reid obeyed.
Escapes With Currency.
Get under that shelf there" COM
manded the bandit, pointing out shelf
a bit above the floor within the vault.
Reid did so and the robber scooped up
roll OF currency, slammed the vault
door, which failed to lock, and made
good his escape. The amount of the
loot at that time was placed at $4,000.
Reid managed to get to the bank
door just In time to see the bandit
sweep out of town In blue coupe.
Gordon Warner, Roy Hippo and
Herman Brown, all of Hamilton, also
saw him. and acting on a clue that the
man was from LovettSville-where
Lindsay lives-gave chase. They over
took him just outside of Frederick, at
Yellow, with his wife in the car.
Lindsay leaped from his car, disap-
peared in the underbrush alongside of
the road and headed for the mountains
The wife was then arrested, the money
found in the car, and q search for the
husband instituted.

WATSON ASKS BOARD
FOR PLAN ON GRAIN

Senator Suggests Formal An
nouncement of Corporation Policy
for Information of Congress.
Senator Watson, majority leader in
the Upper Branch of Congress, has sug-
geSted that the Federal Farm Board
make a formal announcement of its
grain corporation policy. Watson said
he would suggest to Chairman McNary
Of the Senate agriculture committee
that members Of the board be invited
to discuss their program with the COM
mittee with view to a determination
Of its policies.
The Republican leader expressed no
opinion on the boards program. He
merely proposed that it give more def
mite announcement of Its intentions,
particularly with respect to whether it
intends to take over existing grain
elevator facilities in connection with
its national grain corporation program.

attorney pointed out that feeling OF
residents of the county was running
high" and he wished to do nothing to
excite mob violence.
Both men we're arrested by County
Policeman Frank Prince, who was the
lone Maryland officer assigned to the case
prior to Gov. Ritchie'S diplomatic inter-
vention. Prince had been assisted by
Headquarters Detective John Fowler of
this city.
Parran invited the Baltimore au-
thorities to give assistance after the
governor had sent the States attor-
eney a telegram advising him that
Baltimore detectives were available"
for the asking. Ritchie is known to
have been concerned over the elapse of
time since the explosion without any
suspects being taken.
The States attorney said that the
hrst man arrested was permitted to go
after questioning convinced the officers
there was nothing to connect him with
the crime. Apparently the other man
was placed under arrest Immediately
after the quizzipg of the first prisoner.
Three members of the Hall family
will be unable to attend the funeral of

and expectant mother was opening 1t

The surviving. victims are Mrs. Nora
Hall, mother Of Naomi, and her two
sons, Leslie, Is, and Thomas, 8. Mrs.
Hall remains in a critical condition from
a punctured abdomen and mutilated
head, but the boys are recovering rapidly
from mangled hands Leslie and
Thomas both lost fingers as result Of
the blast.
