By PAUL H. KING

United Pres Staff Correspondent
ALBANY, N. Y, Feb. 19 (U.PD-
The campaign that has been
launched for Governor Franklin D.
Roosevelt's Democratic nomination
for the Presidency has not diverted
hil attention from state business
With the Legislature engaging in
most important Session, his days
are busy ones. Conferences, dinners,
addresses and engagements with
party leaders keep him travelling
between the mansion and out-state
cities.
Special Session
He has announced that estate
functions come first-other ac-
tivities will fall in line. T1e even
has gone so far as to say that a
special s,ession of the legislature
might be called next summer if the
unemployment condition does not
improve.
He was informed that he might
be campaigning then for the presi-
dency.
"Well', he said, st expect I will
be here and if the special session is
needed it will be called"
That is his attitude. 1.-THE people

New Problems
Regarding the government,
Roosevelt once said:
Year by year the march of mo-
dern civilization brings forward new
problems for solution and new pos
s-b-l-ties for the greater happiness
Of human beings. The phrase the
best government is the least gov
ernment' is a sound phrase, but it
applies only to the tilmplification
Of governmental machinery and to
the improper Interference with the
legitimate activities Of the citizens.
But the nation or state, which
is unwilling by governmental ac-
ton to tackle new problems, caus-
ed by increased population and the
astounding strides of modern
science, is headed for a decline and

impaired position relative to other Sig
natories of the five-power and three
power naval treaties, nor for preventing
further undermining of that position"
To bring this country's feet to the
strength contemplated and provided by
the treaties of 1922 and 1880 the
United States would have to build be-
tween now and 1886 a total of 135
ships, involving 316,53o tons. Congress
had made no provision for this con-
Struction. As a result, the United
States lags behind, poor third, with
Japan leading in the number of exist
ing combatant ships, PIG, and Great
Britain next, with 1877, while the United
States has 148.
Nearly all of these American ships,
except submarines, are operating with
only about IS per cent of their enlisted
compliments. All of Japan's vessels,
some being classed as in the reserve,
are fully manned. British and Jap
anese battleships and heavy cruisers
are, with minor exceptions, in commits
sion, with complete officer and crew
personnel. Only eleven of Americas
fifteen battleships are fully commits
stoned. The United States keeps ten
out of eighteen light cruisers in full
commission. All of Japan's twenty YES
sells of that category are at sea in full
commission. The United States has
no destroyer leaders. The British have
ten in full commission and Japan

International conditions as of today
spell no immediate danger to world
peace or to America in particular But
they can hardly be described as stable
or promising for an indefinitely war

that American needs at sea are real.
They should not be ignored.

The State of the NAVY.

Secretary Of the Navy Adams. in his
annual report just issued, admits that
the condition of the United States feet
in commission is satisfactory, but his
conclusions and those of the general
board with reference to American sea
power, as compared to that Of Great
Britain and Japan, are worthy of seri-
Gus and prompt attention by both Con-
gress and the country. To the extent
that the memorable demands of Federal
economy permit, the United States
fleets deficiency in units permissive
under limitation treaties should be
remedied with all possible dispatch.
"Curtailment of expenditures" says
Secretary Adams in report conspicu-
Gus for its restraint, has been made
principally at the cost of the fighting
fleet" Mr.. Adams makes no direct rec
concentrations, contenting himself with
the presentation Of numerous compare
tive figures and tables Of the strength
Of the British, Japanese and American
navies. Most striking of all In this
telltale revelation is the disclosure that
the present building program Of the
United States does not provide for q
treaty navy for the next four years, nor

The Lame Duck" Session.

The short session of the Seventy
second Congress-perhaps the last
lame duck" session of the National
Legislature-assembled today at noon,
with the country waiting eagerly but
not very hopefully fer action on matters
of great Importance to the American
people. The impotence of the lame
duck" Congress, because of its makeup
and the results of tie recent national
election, is sufficient argument for the
adoption Of the constitutional amend
ment doing away with cuch sessions.
Although by an overwhelming vote the
country has placed the Democratic party
in control CT both the legislative and
executive branches Of the Government,
its newly elected representatives are not
to function during the next three
months The weary grind must go for
ward with the old Congress on the Job,
a Congress that is almost evenly divided
politically and that has shown itself in
the past incapable Of acting quickly or
without extreme political bias. Fortu-
nately the constitutional amendment to
rectify this situation is in the making
and has already been ratified by the
Legislatures of seventeen of the States.
The Congress is faced with many de-
mandS of many groups of people. The
farmers are insisting upon relief legis-
lation, enabling them to get the full
benefit of the tariffs on wheat and other
crops. The opponents of prohibition
demand immediate repeal of the eight
zenith amendment and passage of legis-
lation legalizing beer, holding that the
recent election is mandate for such
action. The Chief Executive has in
dicated a desire for the creation of a
new agency to deal with the foreign
nations owing the United States in the
neighborhood Of twelve billion dollars.
The President, however is in no posi-
ton to make demand upon Congress
effective because Of the fact that his
successor has been elected and he holds
his present Office after a defeat at the
polls.
The country, despite the involved and
illogical situation existing because of
the hold-over of officials of the Gov
eminent after their successors have
been chosen, will still continue to hope
that something may be done during the
short session of Congress to aid in the
present depression and crisis. If it has
to wait three months before these
pressing problems may be taken up
and effectually disposed of, the country
may suffer. In the meantime its
hands are tied.

A Fat Year for Patronage.

There is a certain incongruity in the
fact that patronage list Is being COM
piled by the Civil Service Commission.
That is the one agency having to do
with Government personnel that should
be, in practice as well as in theory, re-
moved from the spoils system.
But the Civil Service Commission in
sending out QUESTIONABLE to all de-
partments and independent establish
ments asking for "the number of off,
GERS and employees in the executive civil
service whose appointments are not
made through competitive examina-
ton" is merely following established
precedent. The same thing was done
when the Wilson administration came
into office and again when the Harding
administration began.
Now the Democrats, out in the cold
for twelve long years, are with a lean
and hungry look asking that the same
information be compiled again. OF the
approximately $4,000 employees in the
SACSOSAfC cCANlSC, dDOuO 1UO,UUU OF LIem
hold jobs which are regarded as the
spoils Of war. Some of the incumbents
have lived untouched by the changes of
administration, and many of the in
cumbents will go through the storm of
March untouched For there are men
and women in these jobs whose worth
makes them immune from the fate of
those who live by the political sword,
and by the political sword expect to
perish.
This will be fat year for dispensers
Of patronage, but lean year for the
taxpayer. Unfortunately, when the
time comes to begin chopping in the
Federal establishment in the name of
economy, those who feel most the eff
fects Of the ak are not the beneficiaries
of political patronage, but those who by
dint Of merit and industry have earned
the right to work for the Government.
Patronage Is relatively untouched by
economy. 1t will be dispensed, like the
fishes and the loaves, without regard
to the meagerness of supply.

"Internati onale !"

Lest there be mistake as to the nature
of the hunger march which arrived in
Washington yesterday attention should
be called to the fact that the first
group to reach the city, that from the
north, was headed by band clad in
replica of the uniform of the Soviet
army Of Russia. 1t proclaimed its ar
rival on the legislative front with a
rendition of the "Internationale," the
war song of communism. There is
some controversy as to the authorship
of this revolutionary hymn, the words
of which, however, are known to have
been written by Eugene POTTER, a
French radical. The Communists &C
credit Pierre Degeyter with the COM
position of the music Pottier's poem
begins in the French with these words:
'Debout, les damnes de la terre! Debout,
les forcats de la faim!" This may be
translated: Arise, ye damned ones of
the earth! Arise We victims of starva-
toni"
1t Is absurd to suggest that these 5000
petitioners for legislation have come to
Washington on their own initiative or
solely for the purpose of asking for
relief. They have come at the instance
and by means Of an organization of
Communists now resident in this coun-
try who are seeking to foment revolu-
ton, who are known to be stimulated. if
not directed, by the Third Internationale
at Moscow, who are promoting schools
OF revolution among disconnected work.
ers IN this country, even among the
children of workers. They utilize every
phase CT distress and discomfort to
evoke manifestations of revolt. Their
contention that this present march is
the exercise Of constitutional right is
an nsolent perversion of the funda-
mental law.
These agitators, themselves ALWAYS
shrewdly keeping just within the law,
have no compunctions respecting the
safety and the welfare of their tools.

inf1ammatory speechesand food of per-

Mr.. Hoover's monuments. He created
