RAPS PACIFIC STATUS QUO IN NAVAL BASES Poindexter Says U. S. Fortifications Slight Compared With Japanese. DEFENSE NEEDS CITED WASHINGTON, Dec. o—lt would be sheer folly for the American Government to consider any proposal by Japan that her acceptance of the 5-5-3 nsval ratio be contingent upon the maintenance of a status quo in Pacific fortifications. Sena - tor Poindexter, Republican, Washington, ranking member of the Senate Naval Affairs Committee and a widely recognized authority on naval problems, declared today. "Mere agreements, as was found in the case of Belgium, are poor securities of naval defense, ’’ was the warning voiced by Senator Poindexter as he pointed out that Japan already possesses three great complete naval bases on the Pacific, while the United States has not one completed there. “Wj have not even on the Atlantic coast a complete naval base equal to one or more possessed by Japan,’’ he said. PACIFIC INTERESTS REQUIRE DEFENSE FI.AN. “In view of our very Important possessions *3 the Pacific, reaching close to the shores of Asia, it is necessary for us to maintain our sea power there unless we are determined to submit our destinies to the mercy of rival powers. “This is true whether there is a reduction or a 'imitation of armaments or not since the same factors would the relative situation we would be con fronted with.’’ “It must not be forgotten that Japan has three great complete naval bases in the Pacific at Kure. Yokosuko and Sasebo.’* Senator Poindexter said. “In addition. she has five minor bases suitable for limited accommodations and repairs for her naval vessels. "On the other hand, the United States has no complete naval base either upon the mainland or in the Islands of the Fadflc. At Mare Island, Tuget Sound and Pearl Harbor we have navy yards, but between them there Is only one drydock adequate for fully armed and equipped battleships of the largest type. “Suffice It to say that th facilities in the Japanese yards are many times superior to those of the United States In the Pacific. PREPARATION TO AVOID CONFLICT. “There should be no trouble between the United States and Japan because there Is ample room for expansion and development of both within their,

GRAND AND GLORIOUS Wouldn’t it be a grand and glorious feeling to know that all the needy poor in Indianapolis had become selfsupporting and independent? That condition is too nearly ideal to be attained, but you can help reach for it by contributing to the Community Chest. —for instance: A family of seven was about to be evicted for non-payment of rent, tlie father having become ill and his wages stopped. The Charity Organization Society paid the rent, sent in a physician, found better paying jobs for two of the boys, provided the necessities that the limited family purse could not buy, until the father was restored to health. Ultimately the family was re-es-tablished in comfort and independence. This organization is one of the forty working through the Community Chest to relieve distress, promote social independence and build good citizens.

"Adequate shore stations are equally as Important as war vessels, because the latter cannot be maintained without them.
