Winning The 86,000 Navy By FREDERIC J. HASKIN

WASHINGTON. D. C. May 4. A snort time ago the house voted, 177 ayes to 130 noes to increase the nersonnel of the navy from 67,000, recom menced by the Appropriations committee In the interests of economy, to 86.000.. ureed utmnplv hv Prpsirtont Harding in a personal message to the nouse. Behind his message to congress, ! which is credited with the overturn of the committee's recommendations and the overruling of Republican leadership of the house In this matter, was pressure which was brought to bear on the president by members of the senate. The action taken by the house was and still is viewed from many angles. By some it is called a severe and unwarranted attack on the pocketbook of the American taxpayer. It has been called a victory for militarism. By others still it is said that even 86,000 men is not the full number needed to man the ships properly of the restricted navy allotted the Unite1 siaies unaer tne treaty agreed upon uuuci iuc ii fitly agreed upon at the recent conference for the limi-1 tJLtlflTI nf arm amenta I tation of armaments The members of the house all have to go before their constituents this fall for reelection. It was generally felt that the country at large wants government outlays of money cut to the very bone. Any war of the future is felt to be many years away, if not entirely improbable, even impossible. The countries of the world, carrying enormously heavy war debts and consequent large loads of taxes, are not, as a matter of fact, eager to resume fighting with each other on any considerable scale. But 'while the treaty to limit the naval armaments of the great powers was still before the senate for ratification, President Harding was told in no uncertain terms by certain western senators that unless the larger personnel for the navy was strongly recommended by him' to the house, the prospects for ratification of the naval treaty would be slim Indeed. The Senate Situation In the midst of all of the row about the personnel of the navy, with most members of the house facing an immediate accountability to their constituents for voting 19,000 additional men, a strong group of senators took the stand that it would be a ridiculous thing to have a certain number of fighting ships be allowed in the American navy, if some of them were going to be so stripped of crew that they would have to lie idle at their moorings,, with only sufficient force aboard to keep the vessels from being utterly ruined by rust and neglect. The navy department repeatedly pointed out to congress and the people that only a portion of tho ranltal china allowed the United States could be Kept in commission, with trained men to operate them, if the cut in fi7 nnn men was made in the personnel of the navy. In spite of this, the leaders of ine majority m the lower branch of congress, in the interests nf and in response to' the public clamor against continuing Heavy taxes if they m any way De reduced, were bent on putting through the smaller navel quota. President Harding did not want to embarrass any members of the house, particularly the leadership of that body, by using his influence in th fight. He having been a member of cungress ne Knew tne exact situation in which many of its present members, with an election on their hands, found themselves. However, ho v to urge the larger personnel because oi tne ract that otherwise ratification of the naval treaty in the senate would have been the-subject of a real fight, with strong possibilities of defeat. It can be stated on the best authority that one of the western senators, and one who has long been associated with naval legislation, told the presiuenc nauy mat he and several of his colleagues would have to fight the naval treaty to the last ditch unless what they considered an adequate personnel for the American navy was provided. The defeat of the treaty would have been a far more serious question for the country and the whole world than would the addition or subtraction of 19,000 men from the personnel of the American navy. It would have upset all of the international agreements reached here in Washington by the world powers. It would have meant the courthouse, in the offices of County School Superintendent W. S. Fogarty. Mr. Mills will go over matters of interest and importance to the membership of the local society. The meeting is scheduled for one o'clock.

going on with the interminable race oi navai arguments, ana In the end would have meant, the administration felt, very much greater tax burdens than the 19,000 increase of the navy personnel could possibly mean. It is generally believed here that many of the people of the country will disapprove of the enlarged personnel voted for the navy, because of the fact that government funds, raised by taxes on the people, are required to support them. By proponents of the 86.000 navy, this is regarded as an inevitable but somewhat peculiar state of mind. One of the senators who declared he would fight the naval limitation treaty if the 86,000 personnel was not made an Issue by the White House, points out this situation: Would Weaken Navy If, in the negotiations between the powers of the world which led to the treaty, the United States had agreed to write into the covenants an agree u'"t mai n wouiu scrap one more battleship than England, there would Vi ovo, Kaav n A.unViU A ment that it would scrap one more have been a veritable roar of protest rrom the people of the country. Then he said, Messrs. Hughes, Lodge, Root and Underwood might as wellt have voluntarily retired to private life. They would have been looked upon, he contended, as having betrayed their country by permitting it to be weaker specifically in naval power than another erpat Tinwpr of ti earth nrA an having invited trouble by that action. ine interest and excitement aroused bv the ReTPPment- all thrniie-h tho nnntry is guarantee of this fact, he said. as a matter or ract, tnis senator said, cutting down the personnel of the navy so that all of the ships allowed the United States could not be kept in commission and the men trained to their duties, amounts to exact ly the same thing. The ships and guns aione are nothing, without trained crews to operate them. Assistant Secretary of the Navy Roosevelt is authority for the statement that with 67,000 personnel, the navy could keep In commission only 13 of the 18 capital fighting ships allowed it under the treaty. The other vessels would have skeleton crews on them only, to keep them from going completely to pot while lying idle for periods of years. This senator, who comes from a state where the question of Japan Is ever in he minds of the people, said that the people of his part of the country were alive to this ;fact. They felt that the United States might just as well scrap .five of its big fighting ships as have that many out of commisJion and unable to render service when that service was needed. All of this, it is understood, was communicated to the WhitP Hnnso President Harding saw the justice of the situation. The administration was torn between going counter to its own leadership in the house of representatives and the possibility of failing to have the senate ratify the naval treaty. Even if the opposition which would have sprung up in the senate had not been strong enough to defeat the treaty, it would haye caused a big break in the ranks of the Republican majority there, a thing which naturally the president was anxious to avoid. In this dilemma. President Harding, whose own views were opposed to hav ing idle and undermanned vessels, went before the memhprs nf tho v,r.i,oQ of representatives, and by his influ ence secured adoption of the larger personnel for the limited American navy.
