Festival Of Dances
~
Presented by Pupils
Al Phoebe Hearst
More Than 200 Take Port
In Moy Day Program
Before Purents

More than 200 pupils OF the
Phoebe Hearst School celebrated
the arrival OF warmer weather yes
terday with . May Day festival of
dancing and songs.
A series OF seven dances taken
from the lore OF many nations was
exhibited before parents and teach
ers on the playground of the school
at Thirty-seventh and Quebec streets
NV.
Children ranging from kinder
garten to sixth grade classes took
part in the annual celebration. A
public address system, provided by
the Parent-Teacher Association of
the school. detailed the program.
The master Of ceremonies was IL
year-old Ernest Deal, who was
forced to refrain from taking part
in the Virginia reel his sixth grade
classmates presented because of an
injured knee. Rather than deprive
Ernest of part in the program,
Miss S. B. Holland, the school prin-
cipal, gave him the announcer's
position.
The dances, which included a
minuet, q quadrille, the shoemakers'
dance, Q Swedish folk dance, q rib
bon dance and the Virginia reel,
went OF without Q hitch, excepting
a little trouble encountered by the
Virginlans In keeping their broad
straw hats from being whirled of
by the gusts OF wind which swept
the ground.
Mrs. Catherine De shazo gave
the children initial instruction in
the dances they presented, for which
practice sessions were held during
the last three weeks. and the other
teachers assisted in the polishing up
and perfection of routines.
Previous to the actual dancing,
the small terpsichoreans gravely
pronounced "A Salute to the Flag"
Glasses resumed again at ! o'clock
yesterday afternoon.

Senators Squondering Charge
Answered by Army and Navy
Figures Produced to Show Six-Yeur
Total Wos Only s. 1865, 100000

Countering charges by Senator
Clark, Democrat, of Missouri that
the New Deal has "squandered"
$1,000, ,000, 900 on national defense in
six years. Federal budget and mill
tary onicials today produced figures
showing total expenditures for every
military purpose, including pay Of
the Army and Navy, during the first
six years of the New Deal have to-
tailed only $4,968, ,000, 900, and that
the addition of the as yet unexpend-
ed total for the current fiscal year
brings the total to $6,265 ,000, 900.
Senator Clark, in an acrimonious
Senate debate yesterday afternoon
over the Lodge resolution providing
for an investigation of national de-
tense, declared his opposition ito
pouring any more billions down the
same rat hole before we find out
what the brass hats have done with
81, 900, 100000 they've already re-
ceived."
The Budget Bureau today re-
leased preliminary figures for seven
years Of national defense expendi-
lures under the New Deal which
show that, although by far the
largest part Of the appropriations
60 into pay, rations, subsistence and
maintenance of the existing mill
tary establishments, the New Deal
expenditures already have resulted
In 130 new warships, nearly 3,20U
new airplanes for the Army. Navy
and Marine Corps and an increase
of 270,434 in officers and men for
the three services.
IS Per Cent for Pay, Rations.
The War Department produced
figures showing that for the fiscal
years 1887, 1888 and 1899 more than
IS per cent of its total expenditures
were for pay. rations, forage and
similar items, including the MAN.
tenance Of more than 100 Army
posts and stations, and that for the
current fiscal year, despite great in
creases for new equipment, ex-
penditures for these purposes still
will amount to more than IS per
cent Of the total military expenses.
Although complete breakdowns
have not been prepared for the six
years covered by Senator Clark in
his statement on the Senate floor
yesterday, the War Department
made public preliminary break
down for the past four years which
shows where its appropriations have
gone.
For 1887, the War Departments
total military expenditures were

Expresses Confidence
In Meeting Emergency.
There are some who say that
democracy cannot cope with the
new technique of Government
developed in recent years by q
few countries-by a few countries
which deny the freedoms which
we maintain are essential to our
democratic way of life. This
reject.
I know that our trained officers
and men know more about fight
Ing and the weapons and equip
ment needed for fighting than
any Of us laymen; and I have
confidence in them.
I know that to cope with pres
ent dangers we must be strong in
heart and hand; strong in our
faith-strong in faith in our way
Of living.
I, too, pray for peace-that the
ways of aggression and force may
be banished from the earth-but
I am determined to face the fact
realistically that this Nation re-
quires a toughness of moral and
physical fiber. Those qualities, 1
am convinced, the American peo-
pie hold to high degree.
Our task is plain. The road we
must take is clearly indicated.
Our defenses must be invulnera-
BILE, our security absolute. But
our defense as it was yesterday,
or even as it is today, does not
provide security against potential
developments and dangers of the
future.
Will Not Hesitate
To Call Special Session.
Defense cannot be static. De-
tense must grow and change
from day to day. Defense must
be dynamic and flexible, an ex-
preston Of the vital forces of the
Nation and Of its resolute will
to meet whatever challenge the
future may hold. For these rea-
sons, I need hardly assure you
that after the adjournment of
this session of the Congress-, I
will not hesitate to call the Con-
gress into special session If at
any time the situation of the ma
tional defense requires it. The
Congress and the Chief Executive
constitute team where the de-
tense of the land is concerned.
Our ideal, our objective is still
peace-peace at home and peace
abroad. Nevertheless, we stand
ready not only to spend millions
for defense, but to give our serv-
ice and even our lives for the
maintenance Of our American
liberties.
Our security is not a matter
OF weapons alone. The arm that
wields them must be strong, the
eye that guides them clear, the
will that directs them in
domitable.
These are the characteristics
Of a free people, a people devoted
to the institutions they them
selves have built, a people willing
to defend a way Of life that is
precious to them all, q people
who put their faith in God.
