THIS HARD TO DO

Liquor gets partly respectable in the United

it.
It's mighty hard, however, to make the stuff that
way Liquor has bad name wherever it is proper

And nothing can translate it from its inherent
iniquities Not even the vote of the people of the
country that they want it handled differently from
the way it has been handled.

WORLD COOPERATION
AND OUR NAVY
lRY RRTCE CATTON


when Secretary of the Navy Claude A.
Swanson tells President Roosevelt that the
United States should proceed promptly to
strengthen its naval defenses, since more
thaRh decade of sincere work for arma-
mont reduction has gone for naught, he
voices an attitude which undoubtedly has
thejapproval of a great many Americans.
At the same time, by calling attention to
the navy's present incomplete state, he ers-
phasizes the fact that We have not really
h8d2a naval policy since the end of the
World war.
We have not had policy, that is, III
that we have not had definite goal or a
definite program for our fleet. On the one
hand, we have insisted that our navy be
cl6Ssed as one of the two strongest in the
world; on the other, we have been confer {
to let it fall below treaty standards.
The result has been that the navy has
gotten along as best it could, an organiza-
ton nat pleases neither the pacifst nor
the rllharist. Prior to the Washington
conference Of 1922, our avowed aim was
to build the greatest fleet on earth and
maintatil it in fighting trim. In ships built
and building we had that goal within
reach; we needed only to wait for the new
vessels to slide down the ways and We
ould be prominently the greatest naval
power in existence.
But we didn't do it. Of all forms of hU-
man folly. a naval armament race is the
most expensive and the most dangerous;
and we averted such a development by
throwing away the magnificent new ships
that were half-built and by voluntarily ac-
cepting rating lower than we could have
had
Now, says Secretary Swanson, the time
has come to tighten up our belt anew. And
before we can decide on his program prop
erly, we need to restudy the whole prob
lem and decide just what we want our
navy for and what We expect it to do.
If we have given up all hope of further
cooperation from other naval pOwers-if
we feel that future naval agreements are
impossible, and that we shall have to stand
absolutely alone nenceIOrCn-Inen 1t Is up
to us to do as the secretary says and make
the fleet ready for anything that can hap
pen 80
But if there still is a chance of cOntinu-
ing the agreements of the past decade, and
of avoiding the expense and danger of ma
val competition without crippling our for
eign politics, it would seem wise to get
along,,"'as is for while longer.
For we cannot forget one thing. If We
add to, our fleet, other nations will do the
same. And no one knows what the end o.
that might be.

Indicating the calibre of Ernie
Hood, who is to meet Young Tom
my in the 10 round main event at
the Imperial Valley Athletic club
Friday night, an effort was made
by the San Diego boxing club to
get Hood there for a meeting with
Speedy Dado Friday night.
Because he had been previously
signed by the local club, the fight
having been called off two weeks
ago on account of rain, the state
athletic commission supported the
local clubs contention that Hood
should fight here and refused to
permit the San Diego club to ar
range a fight with Dado for him.
Hood is reported in great shape
for his battle with Tommy, the
Pasadena boy being anxious to wiz
over the Filipino, who beat him in
their previous meeting, although
Tommy was on the floor for nine
count during the fight.
