I INTERNATIONAL NEWS SEHVICtl WASHINGTON. May 31 -America must tak her stand, if not as mistress, at least as the equal of any power on earth on the sea an well as on land," said r: . Fred A. Britten, of the house naa! affairs committee, in a statement to the International News Service today. At the same time he said he was "astonished" when Secretary Paniels informed the committee that the threeyear building program, which was used so successfully as a bin stick to drive the nations of the world into a League of Nations was to be abandoned. Rev. Britten grave notice that he

would oppose any move to cut down th . officers and enlisted personnel of the ' navy, and thai he "would not stand for; the placinjr in reserve of battleships j that cost the taxpayers hundreds of mil- j lions. i

three-year building program which was used so successfully as a big stick to drive the nations of the world into the league of nations, was to be abandoned, now that the cocnant of the league is an assured success, not so much because of my confidence in the navy to maintain itself, but because of what the secretary said recently in Liondon. that our navy should be incomparably the greatest in the world, and this after the league covenant had been announced. "This, of course, led naval enthusiasts to believe that the proposed three-jear program was to remain in effect and that America was to go ahead as the predominant naval power of the world, not for military purposes, but for peace purposes anil the protection of our vastly increasing commerce on the high seas. "I am quite sure that the American public wiil not countenance a slashing of naval appropriation merely In the interest of economy, but that the highest efficiency in this arm of our national defense from now on. must be maintainrd irrespective of what the government does with a national army. "I. for one. will not stand for the placing in reserve of battleships that cost th- taxpayers of the country hundreds of millions of dollars, where they will rot away and become obsolete without action. "I will oppose any attempt on the part of the ad jtlnistration to cut down the officers and enlisted personnel to such a point that the principal ships of the navy cannot be operated in maneuers and training on the high seas just

"The" indiscriminate flashing of ap- as is done by eery first class nfcv&l

propriations may sound fine in this riay of heavy taxation." Britten observed, "but the people of the country will insist upon a first class navy. I shall al-

I ways contend that the policing or seas

shall never again b left alone to England." Rev. Britten's staterc-nt follows: "I was astonished when Secretary Daniels informed the committee that the

power on earth."

At an Attractive Price There's a stratum of coal mined in Indiana that is a worthy rival of the best the Pocohontas region can produce. It comes in good, firm lumps and does not slack easily. Its product is a long, hot flame and slow-burning red-hot coals, throwing off steady heat and lots "of it. Its by-products are a light gray smoke and a thin white ash. It's absolutely free from clinkers and produces little soot,when fired with reasonable care.

Punching the Bag With Jack Veoick. Intrua.Uonl JT.-wa Sports Editor.

Fletcher and Hini Zim ht,-fl a chin in every argument that comes along. They sire the pepperiest pair of lnfielders playing on the left side rf the dia-

mond In either major league. And ! both are dangerous hitters a,nt eason-

John Joseph McGraw believes In the potency of a seasoned infield. Troof of Little Mac's regard for the seasoned campaigner may be found In a glance over the names of the players who w;ll make up his Infield this year. Hal Chase. Larry EoyIe. Artie Fletcher and Heinie Zimmerman veterans all will carry the pennant hopes of the little manager on their broad, though wcather-btaten shoulders. McGraw places a mighty high value on the infielder. He believes tbat other positions, with the exception of the catcher, can be filled by either veteran or youngsters, with perhaps equal proficiency. But thost infield stations, where Mc himself used to cavort as a member of the old Baltimore' Orioles, are to be trusted to the seasoned player only. Benny Kauff. Ross Young and Earl Smith, the youthful catcher secured from the Rochester club, are the outstanding youngsters on the Giant roster, though Ferdie Schupp is not yet a veteran, despite the fact that he has ben hrough a pennant-winning campaign and a world series. Chase, peer of first baseimen. even today after serving fourteen years In the big show. Is a player of the type McGraw likes to handle. Chase is a scrappy energetic fellow with a lot of temperament. And hn can hit. Larry Doyle, cut short In the midst of what appears to be a marvellous come-back, is going to try it again. And Poyle is also a scrapper. Artie

ed ftel-ders. McGiaw believes in this quurtet He believes that In securing Chase he has paved the way to the linking together of an infield that w.ll steer the Giants toward another pennant, and who is better qualified to say what such an infield Is worth? Go ask Sweeney, we don't know.

DURABLE! The Laundry Queen is a washing machine without heavy machinery on top of its tub or underneath it. All the machinery, the gears and driving mechanism are a part of the frame or bench.

While the bench is light in appearance and light in weight, it is built like a bridge, giving it the strength to withstand strains and heavy duty of the oscillation of the washing mechanism, which would soon rack to pieces a less stable foundation. Like all other features of the LAUNDRY QUEEN ELECTRIC WASHER.
