The Navy Big or Littler, By FREDERIC J. HASKIN
LODGES, HOME GET JACKSON BEQUESTS
WASHINGTON. D. C, April 21. Aside from its purely humanitarian aspects, one of the reasons for the Conference for the Limitation of Armaments, recently concluded in Washington, was economy. Congress has taken the economy factor so to heart that it is now maintained that if the naval appropriation bill in its present form becomes law, the United States
will be in naval power considerably below the place it is supposed to hold, for defensive purposes, in the' so-called
"5-5-3" ratio. The basis of the ratio is capital fighting ships super-dreadnaughts and modern battle cruisers. Yet it is elementary that the most powerful fleet in the world, without the proper trained complement of men, is of little or no use as a unit of defense or offense. And there, opponents of the bill now in Congress maintain, is the weakness and the threat to the United States. Navy Department experts maintain
that to keep the Navy in a state of efficiency, at the strength in ships which is allowed by the four power treaty,
a naval personnel of no less than 96,000 should be provided for by legislation. That is the minimum, and for
maximum efficiency and to provide for all emergencies the country might face, 120,000 men are required according to naval experts. The treaty into which America has entered allows the United States to keep 18 capital fighting ships of modern type. It is estimated that with 67,000 personnel provided by the naval bill now before Congress, only 13 of these vessels could be kept in cojs mission. The other five ships would be "in ordinary," which 'means that 200 men would be kept aboard each one to keep them from being utterly ruined. The Japanese Navy, supposed
to have but three-fifths of the strength
are not vitally needed is answered by
Bequests to be apportioned the Marcaret Smith home of this city, and the Richmond Commandery, No. 8, Kniehts Templar were made in the
will of Caleb - Jackson, Centervillej of the American naval forces, will

clerk's office.. The will left $300 to the Smith home and $500 to the Richmond Commandery. . The Smith home bequest was given as a memorial to his wife, according to the statement, made in the will which is dated June 15, 1921. The Masonic Home at Franklin was Siven $1,000. The following persons were alloted $300 each: Olive Hook, Hillia Dand, Mayme Gregg. The remainder of the estate goes in two equal shares to the heirs of Jackpon and his wife.

have a personnel of more than 63,000 men. Great Britain, limited to-the same number of capital ships as the United States, will have a naval personnel totalling about 104,000 men. The ships themselves mean nothing, nor do the guns, with no one to operate them. Destroyers Hampered Not only will the men to man the big ships be lacking if the present measure becomes law, but the manning of auxiliary craft will be impaired practically to the same extent. To operate battleships with efficiency, destroyers and vessels of other types must be operated with them. The Navy Department estimates that with the personnel .suggested, it will be possible to keep in commission a naval
tonnage of 703,148, while Japan, al
though on paper having but three-
fifths the strength of the American
the naval experts with the fact that the United States is practically without any light cruisers.. Other naval powers do not suffer from this lack. In the event of trouble, the United States must, depend upon its destroyers to function as light cruisers as well. They must be scouts for the fleet, carry on the service of information, develop . the enemy attack.
Land screen the fleet Until light
cruisers are completed and in commis
sion, fully manned, the Navy Depart
ment experts claim, it is entirely im
proper even to discuss a reduction in
the number of destroyers which must
be kept in full readiness always.
Theodore Roosevelt, Assistant Sec
retary of the Navy, contends that the Naval Reserve cannot be maintained and built up under the bill now in Con
gress The possibility of manning eagle boats and submarine chasers is eliminated by the measure, he say3, and this cuts off a very important adjunct of the Navy. Naval Reserves Important "When the emergency arises and
the fleet has to be expanded quickly a trained Naval Reserve cuts months from the time necessary to put -our fleet on a war footing," says Col. Roosevelt Furthermore', we pride ourselves justfiably on the fact that in all times of national need, our
young civilians rally to the colors. If they are to do so efficiently; if they
are to have 'a show for their white alley,' we must give them an opportunity for training. We cannot do this under the present bill." . Col. Roosevelt calls the establishment under the proposed personnel a "lame duck" Navy. By the bill, pride, safety, and influence of this nation are put in serious jeopardy, he believes.
The naval situation is viewed asi more serious than it appears to be on the surface. The things the Department wants included in the bill are, not things that can readily be created in time of trouble. Just as a "National Army" of trained civilians, such as was proposed by Lindley M. Garrison
when he was Secretary of War, undoubtedly would have met the need for trained men and officers particularly the latter in the World War, so a trained Naval Reserve would be of inestimable value should war come again. It is a generally admitted fact that
a few hundred thousand men with
basic military training would have meant putting American troops into the trenches in France months sooner than was the case, where men had to be drilled and made soldiers 'from the
gruuuu up m me uiiiuy naming camps throughout the country. The !
fresh troops from this country in
large numbers, sent across at an early date, would have meant terminating the fighting considerably sooner, according to military experts. In the event of naval warfare, the need Is even more pressing for a personnel trained in advance. One of the main reasons for this is the fact that the ships for training new men would be engaged in fighting, and the men would have to be trained in their duties on shore as best they could be trained under this handicap. Politics Concerned
However, the majority of the Mem
bers of Congress are facing fights for
their Beats in the elections this fall. With the country demanding economy and prosperity, it is but natural that the personnel situations. of the men
who must vote for an against the na
val appropriation bill must be taken into consideration.. There Is a feeling here that the country at large is sick of war and preparations for war, and that it a poor time to try to arouse interest in the future protection of the
country. The average citizen laughs at
the idea of any kind of trouble in the near future, and sees no war clouds on the distant horizon. He feels that money spent for military and naval purposes now, when the nations of the world presumably are too poor to wage war, is like throwing it out of the window. The undeniable fact Is that in the past expensive naval armaments of the first class have been superseded and rendered antiquated in a few years by new developments in ships and gun designs. There are the two sides of the situation. Possibly next year with tfy election past, the Navy will stand a
(better chance of securing the larger

Travelers Notes By Post Ct Scribe
Our good brother Joe Hill has been in Salt Lake City for the past week and has had a most interesting time with the Mormons. While he was there, he was particularly concerned regarding the characteristics of one Brigham Young, by name. He found many good acts that Brother Young had performed for his people. He guided them by ox teams over a dangerous road, from the Morman home in Illinois, and was a great leader of men, but Joe says "Brigham would steal other men's wives." Welcome back home, Joe, to old Wayne county,
for we have felt quite anxious about
you, since wo learned you were visiting among the Mormons. Bob Heun, along with a representative bunch of business men of Richmond, atended the opening game of baseball in Cincinnati, last Wednesday. Bob has been in Japan, New York City and Dunlapsvllle, but some of the boys are saying that he tried to blow out the electric light at the Gibson House. ' Last Saturday night was a very enjoyable one at our club rooms, as the members were out in goodly numbers and a fine time was had by everyone who attended. Come out, boys, every
Saturday night and help swell the crowd, and also assist us in T. P, A. work by giving us the benefit of your suggestions. Ed. Posey Jones, "The Prune Ped
dler of Milton," has gone to Dover, Delaware, to join Mrs. Jones. Together they are visiting their daughter, Mrs. Russell Wilson, and enjoying their new granddaughter, Barbara. Mr. Russell Wilson is a graduate of Purdue, and is the county agricultural agent in the county of which Dover is the county. Ed. Jones writes that the new granddaughter is, positively the smartest baby in the world. It is now but tyo months old, and Posey says she can already say "Grandfather." .......... Miss Carrie Sharpless of Detroit, Michigan, is visiting Mr. and Mrs. LeRoy Browne of South Fifteenth street. She has had much attention paid her since her arrival, as many social functions have been given in her honor. B. B. Grubb. Post E, Paul Hami-
baugh. Post R, and W. W. Atherton, Post N, audited the books of the state secretary-treasurer last Wednesday. Their report is awaited with much in
terest by all the Indiana members. Said report promises to be boih pleasing and enlightening. The annual banquet at the state convention will be held on Friday night in the Riley Room of the Claypool, and from all reports promises to be a grand affair. All who desire to attend this banquet should communicate with Secretary Sauer for tickets as these must be reserved in advance. At the state convention let the Indiana T. P. A.'s elect their delegate to the national convention, and let there be perfect harmony in so dcirg. There was never any good from a delegation getting "sore" because their candidate
failed of election. Remember, we are brothers, and those brothers who are defeated in the convention contests cannot afford to carry away with them the spirit of revenge. Be good sports, and if you are defeated, come up smiling. Newton. Iowa, is the latest addition to T, P. A. ranks. A new post was organized there recently. New hotels are in course of building In the following named Indiana towns: Huntington, Bedford, Michigan
City, Elkhart and South Bend. Let
the good work go on. The writer has had twenty-five years' experience as a traveling ambassador, and have never found the accommodations "overworked" in any of our meanderings. To show that T. Pv A. members are "mixers," all that was necessary was for one to be present at the Richmond Rotary club, on Tuesday evening, April 18, "Ladies' Night," held at the new David Worth Dennis junior high school building. Ben Bartel, one of our active T. P. A. members, was in charge. In fact it was his meeting and Ben was there with "bells on." The menu was all that one could wish for and the program consisted of Mr.
Frank Simon, cornet soloist; vocal se
lections by Mrs. F. W. Krueger, and
personal experiences and readings
from James Whitcomb Riley, by Mr
Will Hough of Greenfield, Ind., and a
piayiet by high school girls. Many T. P. A', members were there
In fact, one would almost conclude that it was a meeting of Post C members and friends. : All honor and glory to the Richmond Rotary, for it represents a fine bunch of chaps that live and act for gool citizenship. m'
