1t is too early to speculate on the

which manifestly is fraught with i'm
measurable possibilities. The concern
of the United States in this newest
European problem Is twofold-first. its

should it ensue would exercise upon the
existing balance of naval strength. II
German sea power is materially ex-
panded,. the French would certainly in
sist upon a corresponding increase in
their feet, with Italy following suit.
That, in turn, would impel the British
to expect higher ratio. As American
policy calls for parity with British sea
power, German arms equality eventually
would ramify across the Atlantic and
require important revision of the
United States Navy.

A Crisis in Local Relief.

On the heels of Children's Bureau
statement that relief expenditures by
public and private agencies in the
Capital increased one hundred per cent
in June over the same month of last
year, other developments indicate that
washington's problem Of caring for the
unfortunate Is fast approaching a seri-
Gus crisis.
Congress cut the emergency relief
appropriation for the District almost in
half. While the Senate recommended
the 100000 appropriation proposed by
President Hoover, the final appropria-
ton, representing a compromise with
the House, amounted to only $35O,o0O.
So great has been the demand for this
money that the Board of Public Welfare
has been forced already to curtail its
expenditures forty per cent, step that
is necessary if the fund is to be con-
served to meet the even greater de-
msnds of the Winter.
This fund, it is to be remembered,
was made available to supplement the
work of agencies under the Community
Chest.
The Community Chest organizations
are in a more precarious condition than
anybody anticipated, despite the fact
that the Board of Public Welfare has
shouldered a part of the load that,
without the emergency relief appropria-
ton, would have fallen on these organ
izations President Graham of the
Community Chest, in statement today,
says that I'VE are facing a serious
situation bordering on crisis" The
Chest organization has reduced salaries
and cut its own expenses by forty per
cent. The constituent agencies have
had their budgets reduced by an amount
equaling ten per cent of all salaries
over 81 1000. The budgets have been
re-examined and additional cuts ordered
by a Chest Committee wherever such
cuts could be made. The activities left
represent "only the bare necessities of

needy families which have no able
bodied wage Garner; to the orphans, to
the aged, to the sick and the injured
and the blind-those, in other words,
who are more helpless than the rest
and wholly dependent upon the people
of this community.
Yet the Chest has been forced to
borrow to meet budget payments for
August. The loans are secured by
pledges. Such borrowing cannot con-
tinue. Mr. Graham's immediate appeal
is that those who have made pledges,
pay them at once, whether or not they
are due. The situation, he reports, is
desperate and the expedient of collect
ing pledges now is the only one so far
advanced for meeting the emergency.

Germany's Arms Demand

Undeterred by her tempestuous inter
nal crisis-indeed, perhaps, because of
it-Germany has at length taken the
long g-threatened step Of formally de-
manding arms equality with other
countries. A note was yesterday dis
patched to the French government, in
which the Reich proposes revision Of
the treaty of Versailles, under which
the Germans for the past thirteen
years have been reduced to state of
relative military and naval impotence.
The full terms of the Reich'S program
are not yet revealed. but their general
character has been a matter Of public
discussion ever since the Geneva Dis
armament Conference began its deliber-
stions last Winter The Germans de-
mand the right TO arm themselves with
heavy artillery tanks, aircraft, large
cruisers and submarines, to erect FROM
tier Notifications and to maintain a
conscript army.
Coincident with the submission of the
Berlin governments representations to
France, Gen. Kurt Won Schleicher, war
minister and the chief motive power
behind the present regime in Germany
indicates in a press interview what in
spires the Reich's purpose. He bases
demand for equality not only on Ger
many's fundamental rights as a SOW
ereign state, but on the fact that the
League of Nations has not kept its owr
pledge to reduce armaments, given ir
the same pact of peace which con-
demned the conquered powers to mill.
tary inferiority. There is implicit II
Germanys attitude the threat to de
sert not only the Geneva conference
in adjournment until next January bu
the League itself, which sponsors it.
Gen. Won Schleicher stresses still an
other point in support of Germany's in
sistence upon arms equality. H
ascribes the chronic political turmoil
tantamount to civil war, in the Reicl
to the peoples gnawing and growin
discomfort with the disabilities whicl

Great courage is credited to Capt.
James A. Mollison, first westward solo
flyer to cross the Atlantic. He is held
by the public to have contributed to a
better understanding Of conditions
which may affect commercial airpianc
trips, and to that extent to have shared
with a stream Of expert airmen in the
constant progress toward final conquest
of ocean perils.
1T was a good flight" says the
Charleston Is. c. Evening Post, land,
since it writes another first it is use
full as, for that reason. probably taking
the edge off the ambition Of others to
essay a hazardous undertaking" The
Chicago Daily News points out that
"the special difficulties attending the
voyage in the western direction are at
tested by the formidable series OF fail
ures, some Of them tragic, by skilled
aviators" Recalling the previous rec
ord of Capt. Mollison in other flights,
the Daily News states that the trip
Just made by him through the fogs Of
the North Atlantic was more perilouS
than the Others" and holds that lit
was so skillfully made that it sets a
pattern for other air navigators" and
"helps to bring on the inevitable day
when air ferries will ply between the
continents"
Emphasizing the small size of the
plane used and the fact that 1t was
''the first westward solo flight" the
Rochester Times Union wonders how
long it will be before such crossings be-
come safe and commonplace. while
the Rockford Register-Republic re-
marks: Although many successful Ell
forts since Lindbergh's have dulled the
romance of flight, the thought of this
solitary young man daring the ocean
wastes in his tiny plane bring back the
thrill"
The pulse beats a little faster" de-
clares the Nashville Banner, "at the
thought of what Capt. Mollison has
done. but 1t was a Wild chance he took
and he was lucky to come out and
down as we'll as he did. There is pre-
sumably no legitimate protest to be
made If a man desires to risk his life
in that fashion, but, for all that, one
has an uneasy feeling that the game is
hardly worth the candle. Mollison. in
other words. is an extraordinary coura-
geous and able flyer. and one has the
feeling that he could be far better en-
