DOUGLAS BOAT BUILDER
 SOON TO LAUNCH CRAFT

Launching of the JL.J, 37-foot boat which has been under construc- ton in the Douglas Motors building on Front Street during the past win ter, was begun yesterday but it will be June 20 probably, before the craft goes into the water, according to J. L. Johnson, owner and builder

With plenty of depth and beam of over nine feet, the JL.J. will be well adapted for freighting as was in- tended. A Hudson motor awaits in- stallation for the boats power.

Education in Meddling

WAsHINGTON-Any understanding of AM
erican foreign policy and naval expansion pro
posals requires knowledge of certain facts Whlch
Roosevelt. Secretary Hull and Admiral Leahy
aren't talking about
So much depends on the result OF the admin
istration's effort TO educate the American
people out of a pacifistic, isolationist anupathy
toward any monkeying in Aslauc or european
affairs that this educational effort temporarily
may be considered the chief item OF such
foreign policy as We have.
The campaign has been going on for months
through solemn official warnings of peril per-
sistent semi-offcial assurances that the Far
Eastern situation is tense. maximum ballyhoo
for the Panay and lesser incidents, playing up
of all naval movements and many other gestures
designed for the effect OF swaying public opin-
ion.
A navy is the most powerful arm OF diplo-
macy and the American navy now is being used
as exactly that. The State Department feels
its duty is to play the old game OF power politics
This means bluffing Japan and other aggressive
" miltaristic natons-or, as diplomats put it,
using the prestige and influence of the United
States to stop international brgandage and pre-
vent war.
Available signs indicate that Roosevelt and
Hull once released from the public opinion
hobble, would become very noisy and yell louder
than ever at the relationships probably with
naval flourishes Whether this would have the
desired effect of making Hitler. Mussolini and
the Mikado behave themselves or whether it
would be more likely TO get the country INTO war
is a matter of speculation.
The program for an S800000000 naval eXpan-
sion policy-an annual 20 per cent increase in
expenditures part of the power politics game.
1t doesn't mean any new battleshipS within
three of four years, so it hardly can be designed
to meet any possible immediate crisis. The
existing navy is more than adequate for protec-
ton of the Alaska Hawaii Panama Canal de-
Tense triangle and the Pacific coast. The navy
isn't strong enough now to make a stand any
af 1tA1 ha ngln
increase wouldn't come anywhere near being
enough TO take any aggressive action IN that
direction.
Naturally, Admiral Leahy was somewhat han
dicapped by these points in his testimony be-
fore q congressional committee. But there is
reason to believe that the most significant al
though not generally noted Leahy contribu-
ton was the admiral'S assertion that the coun-
trys Pacific naval line of defense now stretches
out to Samoa 26,000 miles beyond Hawaii
This seems to make sense only if you tie it
up with Roosevelts secret pet idea of joint
British American long distance blockade Of
Japan No agreement understanding with
England has been put on paper, but the Navy
has worked out a plan-just to be kept handy
for an emergency, mind you-by which the
United States would put Is capital ships and
their auXiliaries on the Alaska Hawaii Samoa
line to link up with six British capital ships be-
tween Singapore and Borneo

THAT FIFTY BILLION
alameda Times STAR

certain rich man before a congressional
committee few days ago made a significant
statement. He disclosed no secret but did un-
a condition that too many permit them
selves to forget. There is in the United States
fifty billion dollars in nontaXable securities in
which the rich may invest their money he
declared and went to say that his family did
precisely that thing.
That's a lot of property to escape direct tax
alton An average interest Of but three percent
produces a billion and a half annually and
tax of ten per cent this vast sum-not high
in modern tax rates-Would add one hundred and
fifty millions to the federal treasury This sum
would help a lot even in these times when mil
lions are tossed about like corn kernels to poul-
try.
Government bonds of course, the prin-
c:pa securities in which the rich invest with
municipal bonds a close second Income from
these, and other non-taXable securities, should
be subject to income tax. Once there would have
been a tremendous howl go up if such a sugges-
ton was made. With financial and industrial
conditions they holders of nontaxabes
would willingly submit TO almost any rate of
taxation if they could be made to feel secure
in their principal.
OF course, investors in government and mu-
nicpal bonds are not all rich. There are many
small investors with all their savings in these
securities but as a rule their returns from such
investments not sufficiently large to bring
them into the taxable brackets
