Former Naval Chief Believes
War With laps Inevitable

'sThe far eastern situation def
nitely threatens u national inter
est. We need a stable, Independent
China. I don't see how we can es-
cape being forced into an eventual
war by the present trend of develop
ments in the Far East"
But, Taussig asserted, 1--WE should
not be placed in the position of hav-
ing to carry on a single-handed war
against Japan" He suggested that
Great Britain, France and the Meth
erlands should give assistance. He
added:
at should be a naval war. We
can't invade Japan and Japan can't
invade the United States. But Japan
would try to invade the Philippines
Taussig suggested construction of
an 'impregnable" naval base in the
p~hilinpines and continued building
of battleships. He said that agree
ments might be made with the Bri-
fish. French and Dutch by which
American naval vessels could use
their bases in the Pacific.

Two U. S. Destroyers
Check On Blockade

MANILA, April 22.-(R-T W o
destroyers of the United States Asia
tic fleet, authoritative source re-
vealed today, sped northward late
Saturday to investigate activities of
B. British warship operating in the
channel between Formosa and the
Philippine Islands.
Reports here said the warship was
hating merchant shipping, presum-
ably as part of the British blockade
against Germany.
The United States destroyers were
ordered to see that the British ship
does not violate the neutrality of
Philippine waters.
Some observers believed the Bri-
fish craft was looking for a fleet of
German merchantmen reported en-
route, with full cargoes, from Java
to Vladivostok.

Worker Security Plan
Suggested By Rieue

WASHINGTON, April 22.-CP-
Emil REEVE, general president of the
Textile Workers Union of America
{C1O), proposed today that Social
Security laws be liberalized to pro-
vide for workers displaced from in.
dustry by the adoption of new mach
inery and new methods.
He told the temporary national
economic committee that, due to the
increased productivity of individual
employees, the number of man-hours
of work in the textile industry had
decreased 20.4 per cent between 1919
and 1889 despite an increase of at
least 25 per cent in the total volume
of production.
Ghost mills, towns and village
around throughout N e W England
and the Middle Atlantic states and
are beginning to be known in the
SOUTH" Rieve said. THE social and
economic problem created by techro-
logical changes are national in char
acter and must be dealt with by the
federal governments"

Rear Admiral Joseph K. Taussig'

Asserting that he was expressing

It's only a brief rest, however,
because after they go through hos

No empiric formula for estimat-

The general tendency in maneuv-

that it takes heavy and accurate
