tration, the law known as the Vinson-
Trammen bill was enacted, which in
sured the construction of treaty
Navy. In the month Of August just
past contracts were awarded for the
construction of "a new ships-the first
to be laid down under this law-l3 to
be built in navy yards and IL in pri-
vate yards. Yet, with these ships in
process of construction, the New Navy
is today approximately rs vessels short
Of its stipulated treaty strength, and
by that margin short of equality with
the other naval powers, in relation to
which our naval strength is computed.
The point is, however, that some
thing is being done about it; that We
are building to make up present def
ciencies and maintaining what we
have in commission, and that there is
now in prospect Navy second to
none, in accordance with our treaty
obligations. Here is long step forward.
Shipbuilding Aids All U. S.
This development has a very def
mite and useful bearing upon the ex-
traordinary strides which, under the
wisdom of the administration, our
people are making toward recovery
from the depression in which We have
been fioundering. A naval vessel is
one of the most intricate and compli-
Gated of modern mechanisms. The
raw materials for its construction are
drawn from every State in the Union.
A warship on the ways means employ

its battleship categorieS, but materially
below in other important types. In
the decade preceding March, 1888, this
situation was not improved; indeed, 1t
became increasingly worse. Certain
types, notably destroyerS, were entirely
obsolescent. The Importance of the
aircraft-carrying unit increased. The
changing trends of affairs indicated
types entirely new, as, for example,
the modern 10,000-ton cruiser. which
did not exist prior to the treaty.

To meet this condition, in II years
prior to 1898, only a total of IA small

units, in the way of new construction,
work was begun on aircraft carrier
and 16 heavy cruisers The Navy
needed at that time, simply to bring it
up to treaty strength, 1875 ships of
various types. The Navy had its quota
of battleships, but it was deficient in
every other type. 1t was in the posi-
ton of an army composed of heavy
guns only-inSuff1cien field artillery
and insufficient light forces for the
services of security and information.
In 1888, one of the early actions of
the administration was the building
project, quickly gotten under way and
co-ordinated with the national recov-
cry program, whereby 2 aircraft car
riers, l heavy cruiser, light cruisers,
"a destroyers and 4 submarines, and,
outside of treaty limitations. 2 gun
boats, we're placed under construction.
Thirty-four of these will have joined
the fleet by 1886 and all 81 before the
Spring of 1887. Thus the immediate
treaty deficit will be reduced from 1875
ships to 100.

In point Of personnel generally, our
Navy offers a cross section of the high
est American types. The only trouble
with our personnel is that there is not
enough of it. Up to July /, 1894, the
Navy had 79,7OO enlisted men, or
about 81 per cent of its requirements,
for the operation of ships and stations
in commission. The last Congress
granted a small increase to 82,500,

RECORD PLANE

NEWARK, N. j., May IL dN.
SO.-Col. Charles A. Lindbergh
and his wife, who took off from
Newark airport at 6 a. m. today
for an unannounced destination,
are believed planning to board a
special plane of the Transatlantic
and Western Air, Inc, which will
leave Los Angeles at 8 a. m. pa
cific time) tomorrow, in an at
tempt to set a new cross-conti-
nent record.
The plane, one of the COM
pany's new Northrup Gamma
tranport planes, is expected to ar.
rive at Newark airport around
midnight tomorrow, completing
the 2,6O9-mile flight from the
Coast in approximately IL hours.
The flight is to be a test and
has been authorized by the Post
Office Department. The new plane
is capable of cruising 225 miles
an hour.
Although the Lindberghs are ex-
pected to board the plane on its

AIR MAIL FIGHT
DUE At PARLEY

Much interest was shown to-
day by Capitol observers in the
personnel of the conference COM
mittee named by the Senate on
the air mail bid.
The Senate yesterday refused
to accept the bill passed by the
House as a substitute for that
approved by the Senate, and the
following conferees were ap-
pointed to represent the Senate
in the conferenc:
Senators McKellar, of Ten
nessee, Black, of Alabama. and
Hayden of Arizona, all Demo
Gratis, and Sehall, of Mime
sofa, and Frazier of North Da-
kota, Republicans.
None of the five named has at
any time openly opposed the
cancellation of the air mail con-
tracts.
It was apparent from this set
up that the Senate leadership in
tends to stand by the Adminlstra-
tons alleged position of refusing
to permit any of those companies
whose contracts were cancelled to
carry the mails again until they
have reorganiZed.

arrest or threaten to arrest, any
two women you wanted. You
don't even know their names,
not even their descriptions"
Mr.. Greenberg argued. He talked
of the NRA and his authority to
enforce it, but the magistrate
said:
"The only way you'll get the
warrants from me, is to take the
stand and swear you served
the SummOnses personally"
STARTS AND STOPS
Mr.. Greenberg, clustering, start
ed for the stand.
One of the women in the group
became emboldened and said:
"He didn't serve me. An office
boy threw mine through my
door,"
With one foot on the witness
stand, Mr.. Greenberg hesitated as
Magistrate O'DWyer said:
"Of course, if 1 find you have
sworn falsely, I'll take summary
action against yOu."
Mr.. Greenberg turned on his
heel.
The judge went down the line.
He asked each whether he was a
paid-up member-not one was. He
put Mr.. Greenberg on the stand
and elected. from him the infor-
nation that the association was
supported solely by dues of mem
berS.
Strong Language
When he had finished the in
terrogation, Magistrate O'DWyer
had something to say about the
association, and he said it with
strong language.
That wasn't the end of the in
cident. The sequel is typical of
the amazing egotism with which
these officers of trade associa-
tions swelled themselves on being
made, as they said, the enforcing
agents of the NRA.

Chief Magistrate Mcdonald. It's
complaint is interesting in the

POLICY
REPHRASED
By International News Service

by international News service
The highly controversial issue CT
silver legislation was returned to
the White House today for a deci-
sion by President Roosevelt on the
language to be used in a bill re-
storing silver as primary Ame~i-
can money.
The President and the Senate
silver bloc were reported in agree
ment on the principle to be incor-
porated in the legislation. This
was a policy of using both gold
and silver as the money base, with
silver ultimately to become 25 per
cent of the total monetary re-
serves. The one question unset
tied was the choice of language
to write this principle into law.
The Senate leaders were willing
to rely upon the Presidents ex-
plicit promise to adopt a declara-
ton of policy for the restoration
of silver as primary money. They
believed he would agree finally
with them on language, W h C h
would put this policy into effect.
It developed the President, in
urging permissive legislation, was
opposed to a bill. compelling the
Treasury to purchase a fixed
quantity of silver monthly until
some huge maximum was reached
or commodity prices restored to
the 1926 levels. This was the
silver bloc's former plan for re-
monetizing silver.
