Wise to Press Treaty at Once
It Is reassuring to learn that senate advocates of the
London naval pact mean to press consideration o. the
treaty on the upper chamber at once. without waiting for
the special senate session that is to be called by the presi-
dent Immediately after the adjournment Of congress.
There is no reason for delaying action on the pact.
Fully IS per cent Of the senate is in favor Of ratification,
it is reported after sounding sentiment of the senators.
The senate foreign relations committee has put its ap-
prevail on the instrument, 16 to 4, revealing the small
group leading the opposition to consist Of Senators Hiram
Johnson, Henrik ~shipstead, Arthur Robinson. Of Indiana,
and George Moses.
The treaty involves many International considerations
and it should not be exposed to the manhandling of
domestic politics in the coming congressional campaign.
TO do that is to ennesh 1t inextricably In intrigue and
give Europe false impressions Of the American attitude.
The best proof of our sincerity In calling the London
conference and proposing naval limitation-of which the
pending parity pact is the best agreement attainable-
Is to ratfy the London plan without subjecting it to
political misuse. That course would be sure to be mis-
understood in Europe and bring down on us disastrous
interpretations Of our action. It is important in so deli
cate a matter that Europe be assured Of our honesty Of
purpose. This country must work toward a more cordial
cooperation overseas If the cause Of permanent peace
and the remuneration Of war, Is phrased in the Kellogg
BRAND pact, is to make further progress toward realiza-
ton. Already Europe is too mistrustful and cynical to-
ward us. To use the naval parity problem as a domestic
political pawn is to invite dangerous utterances not only
in the senate but. likewise. outbursts from abroad dam
aging to our international relations.
The issue is not really whether the pact should be
ratified. There is a wide majority crystalized in favor Of
that already. according to reports from Washington.
That which is to be done in respect to the treaty should,
therefore, be done with the least friction possible. The
question has become one Of when to act. There is no
virtue in delaying action for the only reason that is ap-
parent SO far-the sinister purpose of political confusion.

v. NJ. |. TO BE STRONG
IN BASE BALL, TRACK

LEXINGTON, Va, March 24.-Tak-
ing advantage Of warm weather for
the last 10 days, candidates for Vir-
ginia Military Institute base ball and
track team have engaged in regular
workouts.
Nine letter men will be available to
Coach Raftery in base ball, and the
same number has reported to Coach
Read in track. The Cadets have kept
last years inf1eld and batteries intact,
but lack experienced material in the
outf1eld.
The track team should be strong in
the weight events, the pole vault and
the running events from the 440
through the 2 miles, but must develop
men for the jumps, dashes and hurdles.
In base ball Capt. Biggs will be at
short stop, Jacobie at first, Grow at
second and Laughorn at third. Williams
and Gillespie will bear most OF the
pitching burden. with Blocker and Hull
doing the backstepping.
Scott, ineligible last year, Is the only
letter man in the outfield.
The track team was weakened by the
graduation Of Capt. Walker and Epson,
the two leading scorers and stars in the
hurdles, jumps and 440. Local record
holders, however, are included in the
available letter men. Capt. Read holds
the institute pole vault mark and will
enter the high hurdles. Holtzclaw, 440
record holder; Mitchell, $50 record
holder; A. Grow, javelin record holder,
and Smith and Jack Bond, holders of
2-mile and mile marks all are on hand.
Other monogram men are HaaSe, shot
and discus; Jackson, 440 and daShes,
and Swank, pole vault and javelin.
