What Would Happen The Hughes navy limitation plan, to be solid, needs adequate insurance of peace in the Pacific to take place of absolutely American naval dominance. This means that England must meet us half way in the Far East issue. But England cannot meet us at all while she has an exclusive Japanese alliance, or any other private and exclusive alliance However, if England gives up the Jap alliance, and the bulk of her navy at the game time, she, too, will need insurance for the sake of Canada, Australia and New Zealand. These two “insurance policies” muy become the arms conference problem. Constitutionally, America may not be able to make an “alliance” with a foreign power. But one diplomatic stroke that America has made stand for the last 20 years and that England, with the rest of the world, has been able to bank on, was the Hay doctrine of the “open door” in, and the integrity of, China. Also the Hay doctrine was evolved primarily on the “American first” principle. “opposed domination of China by any one foreign power. America today is just as vitally interested in the security of Canada, Australia and ‘New Zealand as she was 20 years ago in the integrity of China, and on the same ‘grounds. Could not, then, the two insurance policies spoken of above, be combined into one ‘if Mr. Hughes would restate the Hay dostrine so as to include Canada, Australia and Zealand as well as China as countries the invasion of which America would resist? _ Great Britain solemnly publishing a similar “doctrine” for China and the dominions, ‘would make a pledge as binding as our open door doctrine has been. ' These two would constitute the required insurance making possible reduction of ar- its by America and Britain. And the ending of the British-Japanese alliance. The Japanese, then, could make a third, dovetailing proclamation or not, as they It At all events the Pacific and the interests of all peaceful people interested would as secure as outspoken diplomacy can make it. That is all the American people | Mr. Hughes, who has already taken one bold step, may be sure the country will him in another, if he takes it in the open so that they can know it is along the they want to go—the road away from war. ‘The particular “road away from war” discussed above was not discovered in a news- office. It is the basis of much talk, official and otherwise, in Washington One or two local loafers are trying to get into the navy now.

How or, I hardly believe that $150,000 year could be saved; also, I do agree with them on the abolish of the purchasing agent, To knowledge the port of Seattle saved many times the purchas ing agent's salary by comservative buying. However, I am ready to give this a fair trial, inasmuch as my two colleagues have abolished this position and lost to the port the service of one of the most loyal and efficient men that has been with the port fora number of years lta criticism on the engineering department, to my mind, abso lutely correct. This department has employed men and expended much money from the pyblic funds that was unwarranted. Positions have been created and filled by politicians and it cannot be shown where they have earned one single dollar for the port. At the present time we are paying $660 per month for three agents 00 the South End termi nals when there should be only one at $250 per month, At other places reductions could be made accord ingly. ‘There is Jost one thing to do and that ts to hire an experienced gen- eral manager and pay him @ salary with the services to He must be a man who will not stop to feel out the political altuation before making « move, He must also be big enough | to not listen to every little whim) of the commissioners regarding put- | ting on political henchmen, It would possibly be better to ,obtain the services of some man from some other port, the same as Portiand| and Astoria have done. We can| afford to pay from $10,000 to $15,000 per year to the right men and this man would not only save hie salary many times per year in eliminating deadwood and useless positiona, but would be big enough to take mat- ters up with the railroad companies, the steamship companies, brokers, tte, to make this port an inetitu- tion that the people would be proud ° per not ing my has Wonderful for Dessert Another New-Flavored Ice Cream for Special Week-End Sale After the big Thanksgiving dinner and its usually heavy dessert, you will find Snoqual- mie Brick, the new-flavored special of the Seattle Ice Cream Company, a delightful change for dessert.
