Pubtianed Datty by The Mtar Pudlioning Oo, No Time Like the Present “ye will be the first in disarmament if other nations Jet us; first in armament if they make us.” Bourke Cockran never put a great question more pithily than when he said that in the discussion of the naval appro-- priation bill. God knows we need to economize; but if the peril of dis- armament is so great that it forces nations in actual bank- ruptcy to gather up what assets they can lay their hands on purposes of armament, surely we must think more than twice before we disarm alone. In the meantime, is the utterance of the president favoring a conference of the great naval nations for the purpose of reducing armament by agreement, to be allowed to pass away as mere wind? The British imperial conference meets in London in June. At that conference the program of the greatest naval power on earth will be settled for some time. If anything is to be done along the line of President Har- ding’s speech, there is no time to lose. If nothing is done before the adjournment of the imperial ' conference, it will be difficult, if not impossible, to prevent the expansion of the British navy—to be followed by the ex- | Of naval armaments—Franklin D. _ Roosevelt, former assistant secretary | ontempt for law and has increased pansion of ours to surpass it—to be followed by the expan- sion of Japan’s. There is no time like the present. Why could not the con- ference proposed by the president be called to meet before the London conference, or at the same time? The way to meet is to meet; the way to reduce is to reduce; and the way to agree is to agree We £3 TODAY'S QUESTION you still enjoy sving to ANSWERS ET, DREW, 1618 19th ave: gtrea, You bet.” MRS. W.

Why? Because the cost armament was constantly growing a rate that far exceeded every in “greane in the volume of production — Representative Cochran, of New ork. cee ‘The time 1s opportune for a confer. @nce between Great Britain, Japan nd the United States on reduction of the navy. eee Prohibition has failed to protifbit, Mas filled the jaile with drunkards of type worse than were to be found wet days, has inspired a wholerale ; and not be content with mere talk. Sand. Point Okehed HE unanimous vote of the U. S. senate in behalf of im- proving the Sand Point aviation site near Seattle, is most gratifying, not because this city selfishly coveted something it ought not to have, but because the government will be truly served. It has been most difficult in the past to “sell” Puget Sound to the United States government This territory has suffered from the fact that it is the youngest section of the Coast. Long before this state be- came a state, California and Oregon were being advertised. For many years the Easterner thought only of California and Oregon when he talked of the Pacific coast. And so, congress, too, used to consider Washington and Puget Sound in a far-off neck of the country, somewhere near Alaska. We are gradually overcoming that. Little by little the gov- ernment is beginning to realize that we have one of the greatest bodies of water here, that we have connected up « great lake to the ocean, and ships can dock alongside our very streets here; that on Puget Sound is the natural ‘loca- tion for a great navy yard, and for an aviation field, and for a submarine base. eet we say, they are learning these things at But their education is far from complete. We must keep right on educating and selling Seattle and the state to the government, as well as to the (nat in general. It Will ben efit us, and at the same time it will be serving them. Observations Don’t get puffed up because Germany sends indemnity Proposals thru Washington. Her bids would have been for- warded via Yap or Siam if those countries instead of Uncle -|Sam had cornered the world’s gold, A good many men who have jained the details of Pro- fessor Einstein’s theory of relativity have been called on by the treasury department to correct their income-tax returns.—New York Herald. If Seattle’s city government were conducted more economically than San Franciseo’s, our tax rate on real estate and personal property would be higher, nevertheless, for the simple reason that these are the only things we tax, while in California they also tax bank deposita, stocks, bonds, and other wealth. Think it over, folks, And join the movement to get an extra session of the legislature to revise our tax SYSTEM, so that the burden of taxation may be distributed more equitably. Charles F. Brush bristles up and tells the American Philo- sophical Society that he doubts the Einstein Theory. Brush brushes Einstein aside with arguments almost as easily understood as Einstein's. Steps should be taken to prevent the army engaged in the war on rum from fraternizing with the enemy.—New York World. The high cost of living continues to decline. Radium has now gone down to $100,000 per gram.—Nashville Southern Lumberman.
