" The house appropriation X mmittee fxnattemptmg to fix a policy for the goveynment in contradiction: to the plan’outlided by those whose duty it is'to recommend policies and then to' ask that 'the’ proper appropriation of money :be made to carry them out. So far as can be determined it seems to be the_;nténtlon of the appropria- tions committee to. recommend only enough money' for a navy-whose enlist- ed strength shall be ‘limited to 65,000 It-is sqid ‘that such a navy will be wholly inefBciént. Service men say that. an inefficlent navy is worse than no navy,-‘and they are telling this to congress. It is° shid deliberation by .some idministration officlals that the government just as well might retire from the seas as to keep. afloat a.fleet inadequate for any purpose of offense, d proper training. 2 Harding Opposes Wnn.‘l'ul E}:t;nomy. © The President is opposed to what service. men ‘cull the folly of spending ‘momey on a useless thing. Apparently the administration -believes that' if a few_ additional millions Wilt. “mnke Unéle Sam'’s naVy stfohg'Withih its lim- will be‘well spent, Notice virtually has been given that the President is willing to serve the ends of economy, ‘but notice has been given with'it 'that there is such a thlng as Wwastetul ecod- omy. The ‘committee on naval aftiirs of the house of representatives has rec- ommended a cut in the naval personnel ! to. dbout 86,000 men.. It seems that the house appropriations committeé 1s willing ‘to recommend to the legisla- tors ‘that only énough money shall be appropriated to pay 60,000 men. It is by this declaration of the amount that it 1§ willing to Téecommend for expend- iture on the navy that the appropria- tions committee is attempting, as it ig declared here, to fix a governmental policy which it is the duty of the Navy department and of ‘the committees on naval affairs to fix. ° It Is believed that it the plan of the appropriations committee carrles, and the fleets of the Unlted ‘States shall be reduced to squadrons of mo par- ticular strategic value, such ships as Uncle Sam has must be concentrated in the waters off one coast or the other In order to maintain even an appearance of being serviceable, Cannot Protect Both Coasts. Service men say the situation is just as it would be if it Were possible that the United States one day was to be attacked from the north and from the south simultaneously by two hostile forees, and there were: only soldiers wnough to make some kind.of s dem- Jonstration against one of the invading armles. It would be necessary:-to leave one frontier ‘exposed. % The administration seems 40 be alarmed,today over this matter chiefly because of the seeming determination of the men who hold the money bags to ignore the executive departments and to attempt to frame their own pol- fcies for the protection of the cofintry. and to pay no heed to the récom- mendations of men who: s made such matters their-iife’s Wady™" Officers Have Psychasthenia.

At this season of the year with the spring getting into its full,Deauty the visitors to Washington have the best of all seasons'in which to make the journey to the home of the l‘mher of His Country.

He was much more interested in the beauty of the Potomac's banks and in the history of the country beyond its ‘banks, and in the' life history of ‘George Washington than was his ‘American helpmate, Misinformation for Foreigners. The foreigner' asked his Amerlean- born wife if George Washington was born at Mount Vernon. She answered that he was; which he was not by many iiles. The foreigner asked Jhis American wife many other questions to each of which with almost invari- able inaccuracy she ‘made answer. | This ‘was a traveled American ghrl. There 1s a fairly well grounded bellet that she had met and ‘captivated ‘her husband while she was dolng Burope in an automobile or was rhapsodizing 'on the beauties of the Rhine, the Po, jor_the Danube, Perhaps,_some day. this American woman will go back to her husband's Yand: and “will' listen' to “his stories of 'his American trip, and in the euthusi- \dsm of. the nature which he made man- ‘ifest on the Potomac he will tell the mtmllw concerning George Washing- ‘ton which he learned’ from hls Amer}- ‘can, wife.
