The United States of America stands today as much in isolation as friendship and good will goes as it was on the day when the Continental Army struck the ban ners of monarchy from our soil. For this we have not been forgiven
 Unless we are prepared to meet like with like, force with force, and stand ready at any moment to defend our all we are.doomed to become a subjugated nation.
 And thus we have reason to won der at the studied lethargy on the part of Washington in preparing to meet this attempt at subjuga tion at the point where it will first express itself-Alaska.
 It is time the government con- sidered the question of creating a naval base at Seward. It offers every facility for the establishment of docks and facilities for serving naval ships based in it's great har- bor, capable of accommodating the entire American fleet.
 The argument against this pri- mary protection has been that we have no ships to spare for such a base. Let us see if this is correct. In our various navy yards are types which are decommiSsioned, but highly effective for the nature of protecting Alaskan shores. We have the four armored cruisers, Seattle, Charlotte and Missoula, armed with four 10-inch 50 caIibre guns as we'll as 14 siX-inch calbre guns, and the Pittsburg, armed with four 8 inch 50calibre and 6 inch 50-calibre guns.
 The first three are l4,500 tons and the last one 13,600 tons. All these boats are 502 feet long, have a speed of better than g knots and are heavily armored, and cap able of rendering great service in harassing an enemy attempting to run the gauntlet of a Seward base and the Hawaiian Islands, what with our land-locked harbors and retreats all leading to Seward.
 For protected cruisers he have the St. Louis and Charleston, hav- ing 12 inch 50-calibre guns, 12 3 inch 51-calibre guns and both of 9,700 tons and a speed of g knots.
 All these ships were commission ed in 1907 and are highly effective units.
 For battleships we have the North Dakota, 10000 tons; Utah and Florida, 21,835 tons and all having a speed of 21 knots and carrying 12-inch and 5-inch guns

Senator Hackett :
 May Yet Win
(Continued from Page ID

this creates a tie, IT to IT, with the deciding vote in the hands of Lieutenant-Governor Roy Wilcox, republican presiding officer of the senate. It is logical to expect him to vote in favor of retaining the present incumbent, Commissioner William H. Blodgett.
 Therefore, if the senate does not ratify Senator Hacketts appoint ment the governor can then wait until the 1893 session adjourns next month and name the New Haven man, his term to run through the recess. This would give him the post until the opening of the 1885 session and would constitute a term of about a year and a half.
 The situation governing the tax commissioners office appointment is different from that of the motor vehicle commissioner. The former is appointed for specified term of four years. The latter is named for fours years or until his success sor is appointed. Therefore, if the newly named democratic motor vehicles commissioner had not been ratified by the senate, Commis- sioner Robbins B. Stoeckel would have held over for another two years. The governor could not have made any recess appointment in this instance. He can do so, how ever, in the case of the tax com- missioner.
 On the other hand, he can nom- mate some other democrat and with Senator Hackett eligible to vote the governors selection would prevail as the democrats would be in the majority in voting on the nominee. Therefore, it is still possi- ble that the republican side of the senate, realizing that some demo- crat is sure to get the post, may agree to give Senator Hackett d courtesy vote and allow him to be- come the state commissioner for the next four years
 Action on the matter is expected during the coming week. The gov ernor is also expected to make his appointment of state athletic commissioner. Senator Joseph H. Lawlor of this city is considered sure of the post.

Oakville Man to

The fire broke out shortly af- ter o'clock. Residents of Main street and vicinity were aroused by the explosion which blew out the windows of the store. Wolk was narrowly trapped and burned severely. Fire. officials believe that he was literally blown out of the store. His clothes were nearly burned off his back. He saved himself from serious burns by plunging into a pond opposite his store. He later dragged himself to his home on Davis street, where he was found by the police. Wolk declares that the fire was started accidentally. He claims that he en- tered the store to obtain some gasoline and failed to remove a lighted cigar, which he had in his mouth. He denies that he had any intentions of setting fire to the place.
 Wolk in now under police sur veillance at the hospital. He is in a very comfortable condition. He will be obliged to remain in the hospital for several weeks.
 Chief Ray Palmer of the Water town fire department reported the fact that the fire was a suspicious one to the state police. Fire Mar shal D. J. Lahey and Captain Will liam Russell of the local depart ment assisted Chief Palmer in searching the ruins for evidence. A can which had contained gas oline was found in the wreckage of Wolk's meat market.
 The fire was one of the biggest Oakyille has had in years. Over 150 telephones were put out of service when the heat of the im- mense flames melted a cable over the front of the building.

 calcitrants units which reject stablization code agreements.
 President Roosevelt expects to submit the bill to congress early next week, with an accompanying $3,300, 00O,000 public works pro- gram. The necessity of raising $220,000,000 by new taxes annually to amortize the public works bonds is the major point still be- ing discussed. The president is understood to lean toward a sales tax. He hopes to determine on a definite tax plan in conferences to- day and tomorrow. s. The national board to be set up under the industrial control bill would consist of four cabinet of- ficers and an executive chairman to be chosen from non-official life. The planning boards for each in- dustry would have three members representing the industry, labor and the public.
 Subsidiary boards would be agreements within each industry to dtOlu OIlpCllllOIl duu over-production, to shorten hours of labor, establish minimum wages and fix bottom prices above which there would be 8 range of com petition. Some of MT Roosevelt's advisers urge authority for these boards to impose stablization codes upon an industry though majority sentiment might be opposed.
 Senator Wagner, dem., N. r., who yesterday submitted an indus trial control draft to MT Roosevelt favored wholly voluntary agree ments. Lewis Douglas, budget di- rector, drafted 100 per cent com- pulsory bill. It would impose a 10 per cent production tax on in- dustry. The treasury would have authority to remit the tax to in- dustrial units cooperating in stabi- lization agreements.
 As now contemplated, there would be two sanctions to per- suade industrial units to agree to stabilization codes. The first is a regulatory tax along the lines of Douglas proposal, from which co. operating units would be exempt. The second is a license system by which the board could penalize recalcitrant units by revoking their 1iCenSeS

foreign holders of Argentine bonds could be assured these obligations were perfectly safe.
 "My government will maintain It's policies for the scrupulous full fillment of our external obliga- tions," he declared. High rates for foreign currencies forced us to great sacrifices in the past IA months to meet our obligations, un- dertaken in times of normal foreign exchange.
 "But the government considers itself prepared to continue meeting obligations in the future---at least. unless obstacle arises from the scarcity of available exchange as a consequence of a greater decrease in our exports" He said that the willing contri- buttons" of Argentines through the new income tax would permit maintenance intact of our econ omic structure without resorting to any infIation,"

 siderably.
 Under the provisions of the bill the city could abate interest on back taxes providing the delin- quent property owners came to an agreement with the tax collector promising to pay up the principle within certain length of time.
 Last week the Legislature ac- corded extra assistance to needy property owners by reducing the interest rate on back taxes from nine to seven per cent and by ex- tending from five years to fifteen years the time in which the tax collector would be required to fore- close liens placed on property for unpaid taxes. The reduction to seven per cent in the rate of in- terest. became effective from the day of it's passage but did not af- feet the interest already charged prior to the day the bill was adopted.
 The new bill. therefore, coming up for consideration on Tuesday, would make it possible to wipe out all interest on back taxes. Mayor Frank Hayes and Tax Collector William A. Ennis of this city plan to attend the hearing.

President Will Not
 Deal On War Debts

Word on Capitol Hill of the ad- ministratfon's decision coincided with a rebuff to new French pro- posal.
 Ambassador Andre de Laboulaye of France discussed the June Pay ment with both MT Roosevelt and Secretary of State Hull last night. Both the ambassador and Hull declined to discuss their talk, but in an informed quarter it was learned that France offered to pay the $20,000,000 defaulted last De- cember if the United States would grant a moratorium on the money due next month.
 The president is represented as feeling that he cannot make such a promise. Recalling that Great Britain paid what was due last De- cember wi t h ut compensating promises of future concessions, MT Roosevelt feels that it would be unfair to give Paris what was de- nied to London.
 The presidents decision not to seek authority to revise the debts was gratefully received by congress sional, leaders who had been dis mayed at the prospect of a knock down and drag-out fight on the is- sue, always full of political dynn- mite. Anti-revisionists had been quietly preparing for a last-ditch battle with good prospects of suc- cess.
 The situation had been regarded as particularly dangerous in the house, where a substantial major ity of both republicans and demo- crats campaigned on a mo debt compromise" platform.
 Recently, worried leaders at a series of conferences agreed to place the situation squarely before he was courting certain defeat if he injected the debt issue into the present congress. Influential sena- ident's advisors.

 Under this procedure, the debts are pushed further outof the Lon- don economic conference picture. Secretary of State Hull already has made known that the debt issue would be barred from the confer ence, but said negotiations regard ing debts might be carried on si- multaneously with the conference.
 Europe now must meet the United States more and more on tariff and currencq grounds. Pros pective trade agreements and Pres ident Roosevelt's power to lower the value of the dollar will stand

FIRST AID BY
 TELEPHONE MEN
Special Training Enables Phone Employees to
 Render Service
BIG HELP TO PUBLIC

Although many times such deeds may pass unnoticed save for the compliments of fellow workers, efn- ployes of the Southern New Eng land Telephone company because of their special training are often able to render services to the pub lie of Connecticut whic hare far beyond the bounds of their partic- ular jobs. Whether it be the rem dering of first aid after an accident resuscitation after drowning, elec- acts are looked upon by company employees as "part of the job.'
 For many years, the telephone workers, especially plant men, in the art of giving first aid to the injured. This is done principally so that the men will be equipped with knowledge that will enable them to promptly treat any injuries sustained by fellow employees while on the job. Each worker considers it his duty toward his fellow work CTS to learn the art of first aid thoroughly. Wounds which might easily become infected and cause serious trouble, perhaps result fat ally, are thus desinfected and band aged to protect them until the in- Jured man can be taken to a phy- sician. Because of this first aid knowledge, the telephone workers have been able to give treatment to scores of citizens injurd in &C., cidents, both while at work and while off duty.
 Outside plant workers are given instruction in the prone pressure method of resuscitation, the means or restoring breath to person who is apparently drowned, electrocuted or asphixiated by poisonous fumes, Many lives have been saved be- cause an employe of the telephone company happened to be handy when accidents of the above de- scription occurred.

 Buenos Aires, May 13-(U.P.)- Argentina hopes for new deal in her commercial relations with the United States, President Agustin Justo told the United Press to-day in an exclusive interview.
 Argentina is ready to sign 8 trade treaty with the United States She is willing to send an economic mission to Washington and would welcome an American mission to Buenos Aires.
 Argentina, President Justo said is willing to cooperate in the world campaign for lower tariffs He said frankly that he thought other countries were too high.
 After signing an accord with Great Britain, my government turns now with pleasure to nego- tiating a commercial agreement with the United States, with whom we are bound by identical senti- ments and traditions" he declared.
 "The decrease in our former com mercial relations should prove an educational experience. Collabora- tion must prevail over economic ,nationalism.
 we should work through the modification of tariffs, which are without doubt too high through out the world, for reconstruction along these reciprocal currents which our interdependence de- mands. To this end, my govern ment would not hestitate to send an Argentine mission to Washing ton, should such a move prove helpful.
 'I am unable to determine the course of the negotiations between the delegation. But we still hope that our meat would be appreciat- cd by consumers in the United States. In return, Argentine con- sumers would take more United States manufactured goods.
 "The energy of our farmers over several generations has brought the quality of our meat to high point which we consider sufficient for legitimate pride."
