in the futility of Japan's demands unless she is bent on extending her political sway over China, the Philippines and ultimately over India. This latter policy. while undoubtedly dreamed of by a small group of miliatoristic inn perialists, can not-y yet-be taken seriously by thoughtful observers.
 Under the circumstances, the de- mand for a navy equal to that of the United States and Britain is untenable. Neither the American nor the British fleet could expect to operate successfully in Western Pacific waters under the existing dispositions. If, therefore, Japan's fleet is to be increased by 40 per cent with respect to Britain and the United States. Japan win not only be able to dominate Eastern Asia but to extend her dominions

to Australia or India. In view of the temper of her leaders during the last few years. no peace-loving person can view without distress such an enlargement of the Ja- panese fleet.
 A naval understanding between the United States and the British of Nations becomes the obvious alternative. If Japan persists in her course of aggressive militarism she may force some sort of an agreement between the two other major Pacific powers. a. least in so far as the preservation
 of peace in the Pacific is concern ed. Neither. Britain nor the Unit ed States is likely to favor aban- doning the thesis of limitation of
 naval ornaments. Both are op- posed to a large increase in Ja- pans ration. The implication is obvious.

 A world hardened to seeing Ja- pan plunge ahead unrestrained on . course of militarism and expan- sion is but little surprised to req l that the Jananese minister of the navy has made speech demand ing for Japan a navy second to none. This implies, of course, the scrapping of the treaties signed a' Washington and London for the limitation of naval armaments.

PRIVATE LIVES" TO OPEN AT DREAM

Norma Shear CT and Robert Montgomery are CO., starred in the production in the roles played ing the Broadway yer sion by Noel Coward and Gertrude Lawrence Prominent supporting roles are flied by Reginald Den ny, Una Merkel, Jean Hersholt, and George Davis.
 This delicious farce, which de-

bends almost as much for it's humor son it's, amusing dialogue as It's riotous action, concerns the d. verting complications which arise when divorced couple make another tryeat marriage with fresh partners and find themselves shar- ing adjoining suites on their sec ond honeymoons.
 ROugh-hOuse Action
 A good share of the action is taken up in fights between the re- spective husbands and spouses. These are by no means restricted to verbal battle and as a conse- quence movie patrons will be treated to the unusual sight Of viewing Miss Shearer and Mont gomery wrestling with each other, rolling around on the floor and hitting each other over the head with vietrolia records. Miss Mer- kel and Denny, likewise, are given opportunities at the gentle art of hurling crockery as we'll as the most appalling epithets. The whole thing is done in the engag- ing satirieal vein for which Noel Coward is famous.

Saratoga, colorful stage of so
much of the romantic and the
dramatic in American history,
is alive again, revived in its old
time glories by the return of the
thoroughbred, King Horse.
Little changed in so years,
redolent still of the perfumed
curls and the crinolines of a
century ago, it awakens from
the drowSiness of a year to the
thunder of the galloping hoofs
of the fastest equines of the
Bluegrass and the Old Dominion.
It stirs again to the roar Of
the crowds, that breath-taking,
thrill-making roar: They're
Off" It settles down for a
month of devotion to the crea-
ture which has been the init
mate friend of man, his COM
panion in history, story and
song, for ten thousand years.
After all, there must be more
to the appeal of horse racing,
whether it be the machine-like
speeding of the artificially-
gated trotting horse or the
swift, swallows flight of the
slim, dainty-footed Kentucky
thoroughbred, than the mere ex-
citement of speed or the feverlSh
thrill of gambling.
There must be something
about it which goes deep down
into the very roots of the human
race, something very ancient IN
the way of admiration for mans
inseparable companion on every
high adventure, from King Solo
mon and his great war horse to
the mailed charger of Cortez
and the swift steeds of Paul
Revere and of Phil Sheridan at
Winchester.
For the horse, as we'll as the
man, is a hero of romance, as
the French well knew when they
built the phrase which coupled
the two: "preux chevalier."
It is fascinating to dig back
through history, through the do
ings of mankind in every age'
and glimpse the part his horse
had played. Mr.. H. S. Skettlng-
ton has done so, at infinite
pains, in the Irish Press. He
tells us that the gods themselves
had Pegasus, the winged horse
of the poets.
Mythology had centaurS, hip
pogryphs, unicorns. The ancient
Irish called tn cir centaurs

Washington; Your City

You meet a nice looking,

Nov, what girl enjoys a box
ing match, when all she wants
is an evenings pleasant COM
panionship? And do lots of girls
rush into hasty marriages just
in order to escape being etern-
ally and casually mauled?"
The foregoing letter, which
has been highly expurgated,
comes from a girl in a State
once famous for it's "chivalry."
Is it an example of what the
average young girl is getting,
these days, as substitute for
love?
AS for the older woman, either
married or single, you can read
her history in the newspapers
every morning. At this moment
of writing, three wives are suing
for freedom from their gay, but
elderly spouses. The most in
teresting case being that of the
beautiful Mrs. Bertrand Russell
against her famous 62-year-old
husband. The correspondent is
alleged to be a 20-year-old gal.
All, mellow the heart Softens
as the arteries harden!
It doesn't seem to make much
difference whether the girl is
16 or 46, whether she is wild or
tame, whether she is married or
single, it's the same old deal,
which was handed her by the
postwar generation. And not

velt is availing himself of every
opportunity to encourage the
reelection to the Senate of
those Progressive Senators who
left their party two years ago
to support him.
He is encouraging them and
their followers to give perma-
nent allegiance to the Demo-
cratic party by filling minor
ity vacancies on bipartisan
commissions with Republicans
whom they recommend.
He is encouraging the Demo-
Gratis in number of States to
throw their support to the Pro-
greSsive Republican candidate
for the Senate, provided that
candidate supported him in 1882.
G. o. P. Weakening
This strategy is weakening
the Republican party all over
the country. 1t is preventing
Republicans from exercising
any influence, even as a mi
nority party on the course of
administration. 1t is encourag-
ing Republicans who were for
Roosevelt in 1882 to remain with
him in 1884 in the hope that by
1886 they will be ready to cast
in their lot permanently with
the Democratic party.
President Roosevelt is not con-
tent to look forward merely to
a reelection for a second term.
Other Presidents, both Repub-
lican and Democratic, have
achieved that honor. He is be-
lieved to cherish the larger am
bition of building up the Demo-
cratic party into the majority
party of the country, not for
the duration of the emergency,
but the years of prosperity that
it is hoped are just ahead.
If the President succeeds in
this ambition he will have a
high place in history not only
as a popular leader but as one
of the cleverest politicians who
ever attained the White House.
He will have done what Wood
row Wilson failed to do, leave
behind him when he completes
his second term a Democratic
party that is no longer a mi
nority party except in emergen-
cies but a normally majority
party the country over.
The next step in this strategic
campaign is to encourage the
election to both Houses of the
next Congress as many Roose-
velt Republican Senators and
Representatives as possible. This
the Administrator is now doing
upon the plea that the emerg-
ency still prevails and that in
the war on the depression all
voters should adjourn politics
and "stand by the President"
