NEW NAVY PROGRAM

Some details of the plan to strengthen
the American Navy in accordance with re-
cent legislation have been made public by
Secretary Swanson. Stated briefly, they
are as follows:
A total of 80 new vessels will be built
during the next three years, including two
15,00O-ton aircraft carriers, four 10000
ton cruisers, four l,s50-ton destroyers, six
teen 1.500-ton destroyers, four 1,400-ton
submarines and two 2.000-ton gunboats.
For this program 100000 will
be made available and the work will be
divided between government and private
shipyards. as is customary. 1t is esti-
mated by Secretary Swanson that SIS per
cent of the sum to be expended for new
warships will go to labor. 1t viii directly
affect some 10 major industries and more
than 100 different mechanical trades.
Lest it be thought by some that we
are setting bad example at time when
efforts for general reductions in arma-
ments are being made. ii may be said that
even with the addition OF these 80 new
ships the United States will still be far be-
hind the strength permitted by the London
treaty, while Great Britain and Japan
have built their navies up to approximately
treaty strength.

The always funny Will Rogers reached
really sublime heights recently in one of his
syndicated articles when he attempted to
name the worst possible punishment for
traveller. He proposed that those who are
accustomed to pick up hitch-hikers shall
ascertain the hiker's nationality and that
those from countries which have honored
their debts to this country be permitted to
ride the distance proportionate with their
recent payments, and that those who have
paid nothing be compelled to catch bus!
Will Rogers must have felt pretty sore
over the debt defaults when he penned
those lines, but he probably was uncon-
scious of his failure to recommend that they
be compelled to ride in comfort in rail-
way coach. He wanted to recommend, not
comfort, but discomfort. He specified
"busses."
But the speediest, most comfortable
land transportation yet devised is not the
present day railroad coach. 1t is the new
motor driven, rubber tired railroad
coach of tomorrow.
The most comfortable bus in the world
has served good purpose if its competi-
ton with the railroads is responsible for
the railroads latest steps to increase the
speed and comfort of their services which
have always excelled. 1t is most likely
that the proposed new plan of co-ordina-
ton of railway services to eliminate waste
tribute more than any other single cause to-
ward revolutionizing of the types of
trains and coaches.

CONFUSION

The economic statesmen at London
seem to be coming around reluctantly to
the opinion that the United States, after
all, isn't SO hopelessly confused and dumb
as it may have appeared from recent state
ments of policy.
This isn't the only country whose at
titude at London reveals the fact that in
some important particulars. at least, it is
up in the air. All of the nations are con-
fused. Nearly all of them are stalling and
suspending action along some lines until
the fog clears little more. A world situa-
ton which seemed static few weeks ago
turns out to be dynamic. There are ire
mendous forces at work Nobody wants to
move counter to natural forces of revival
Everybody wants to get into natural
streams of revival, if there are such-and
there seem to be in this country
There might be one exception noted in
this general confusion. France, alone
among the big powers, has seemed to know
just what she wanted, and has been very
much out of patience with us because we
have not fallen into line with her, but have
trailed rather with Britain. But even
France isn't always right. Any nation so
consistently self-centered in her inter-
national policy as France has nearly al
ways been is bound to spoil even her own
game sometimes.
The fog will clear sooner or later
And the solution will probably come from
America. We have a power of decision,
and when we make up our minds we act
quickly-7as our domestic reconstruction
moves show.

Why not try the experiment of social
izing all industries and let the state take
them over paying percent on the invest
ment. Those industries netting more than
s percent would oppose the proposition
and those making under that amount would
welcome the new Industrial covenant
Since there are more OF the latter than the
former the administration would not have
much difficulty in putting it over.

ton of the IT, S. Constitution which provides that citi-
shall be Disseminated against account of or
color
1t is true the state of Virginia and other Southern
States do not by statute prohibit Negroes from serving
ures however they take pains not to select Negroes
Jurors.
Crawford's basel as it is on the illegal discri-
minaton against Negro jurors in the South bears
striking analogy to circumstances involved in the Scots
boro Case In appealing to the higher courts from the
dict in Haywood Paterson's trial. Attorney Samuel
Lebowtz contends that the trial illegal because the
prisoner denied the right have members his race
represented on the jury.
Deep down in their souls the white people of Ameri-
believe in justice and square deal but in their deal
with Negroes many of them often forget that we
human.
In the South, especially, most whites seem to be
haunted by mysterious fear complex feeling
superiority which warps their sense of Justice to-
wards Negroes group though they hold tender
feelings for many individual members of the race
The Crawford Case will doubtless be appealed to the
Supreme Court and the entire jury system of the South
may be affected by the decision.
