Why the instrument you
should be a Victrola
Because it is supreme in beauty and fidelity of tone.
Because it is the chosen instrument of the most famous
artists. Because it is the instrument of great musical
achievements; the instrument which revolutionized
talking-ma chine construction; the instrument which is
the one recognized standard in the world today

Senator Fall Discusses Situation
With Wilson, but Gets Xo Defl
. nite Promise of Attention.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 7. The Mexi
can situation overshadows all Ques
tions likely to come before congress
this week.
The senate foreign relations com
mittee will meet tomorrow to give
further consideration to a resolution
requesting President Wilson to break
off diplomatic relations with Mexico
and to withdraw recognition of the
Carrar.sa government.
Senator Fall, author of the reso
lution, talked over the situation with
the president Friday, and It had been
expected that President Wilson would
give some expression of opinion on
the proposal in advance of the meet
lr.. .
WllMa Ufalcea Ne Promise.
Senator Fall said tonight, however,
that trie president had not definitely
promised ny response, either before
tomorrows committee meeting or
later.
No action on the peace treaty be
fore next month has been expected.
Senate leaders still hope to get a
vote this week on the Cummins bill,
designed to meet conditions with re
turn of the railroads to private oper
ation and control, but with ths long
fight over the bill's anti-strike pro
vision, there may be no final enact

believe now that he will wait until
the new law is effective.

(Continued From First Page.)
living in Manette, was one of the
first to reach the scene of th acci
dent. He was quickly Joined by Ralph
Hogue, Verne Painter, J. L. Fryette,
Ed Austin and Tom Wright. Ridding
himself of shoes and coat, Burt leaped
into the water and sucoeeded in
reaching the shore with three women
who were unable to swim. Then he
aided a boy who was nearlng the
shore but who was fast becoming ex
hausted. Paintar and Fryette also went Into
the water and succeeded in swimming
with women to a place of safety. Aus
tin and Wright, with the aid of long
poles, provided a means for no less
than a doien women to reach-piling
where they were drawn up to the
dock.
The tide was well on its way out
and it was so strong that it prevented
the float from righting itself in the
former position. The gangplank lead
ing to the dock was jammed down. It
was near the gangplank that Mrs.
Armstrong's body was found.
Victims Hemnved to Homes.
Mrs. Armstrong had spent the after
noon In Manett vieiting friends and
was awaiting the ferry to return to
Bremerton when the accident hap
pened. Mrs. Armstrong Js survived
by a son, Fred Armstrong of 1203
Thirteenth avenue. East Spokane, and
a married daughter, also believed to
be a resident of Spokane. Her body
was not recovered for more than an
hour after the accident. It was re
moved to an undertaking establish
ment in Bremerton pending instruc
tions from relatives.
As fast as the victims or the acci
dent were removed from the water
they were cared for in homes near the
ferrv dock at Manette. Later many
of those living in Bremerton were
taken home. Nearly all were under
the care of physicians the greater
part of the night.
Tugs to Dras Sound.
A check of all the persons known
to be on the Manette dock and on the
ferryboat going to Manette- that was
started last nipht could not be com
peted and until it is it will not be
known whether more than one was
drowned.
Today government tugs will drag
the bottom of the sound in the vi
cinity of the accident. On account of
the swift flow of tide It was believed
improbable, however, that more bodies
would be found.
Among the Bremerton physicians
who responded to the call were Drs.
J. p. Schutt. Ray Schutt. D. H. Polk.
E. L. Smythe and E. H. Holmes. These
physicians went to Manette and
others assisted later, when they
learned of the accident, by attending
the victims in their homes.
R. X. McLean Gives Warning
on Large and Undetected In
flux Into United States.
"If the Mayflower had landed at
Vera Cruz instead of Plymouth, I'm
convinced that Mexico City would
have been the center of western cul
ture, and if Fernando Cortez and his
hundreds of warriors had come to
Boston in their place, I'm sure we'd
have had some Villas running loose
in the United States."
This was the opinion voiced last
night by ltev. K. W. McLean of Los
Angeles, director of missions along
the Mexican border, who supplied the
pulpit of the Central Presbyterian
church.
"Uncle Sam has been the goat long
enough," he exclaimed, "but the hard
est thing he had to digest yet is chili
con came. Do you realize that the
Spanish population on our southwest
ern border is just about double what
It was before the war? While our
attention was centered on the con
flict overseas tens of thousands of
Mexicans were comiifk across our
line, so that a million and a half or
two million have been added to our
population in the last seven or eight
years. Investigators have found that
seven or eight out of every ten came
in without the knowledge of the im
migration officials."
Education, the mission worker
pointed out, is the principal need, as
Mexico has no democratic middle
.class, and the upper class needs to
have some of its old feudal ideas
removed.
Back of the Victrola are the genius and skill which
developed the talldng-nTachine from a mere toy into the
world's greatest musical instrument; the organization
which has the longest experience in producing the
modern disc type of instrument; which invented the
original cabinet-style talking-machine, the Victrola;
which originated all the important talking-machine
improvements.
The Victrola is the product of the largest and ,most
complete plant in the entire musical instrument in
dustry; factories which for a quarter-century have been
devoted exclusively to the manufacture of talkmg-machine
products; factories whose vast facilities and modern
equipment enable us to produce every part of every
Victrola right under one roof the Victrola is the only
talking-machine made in its entirety by one concern.
These facts have a direct bearing on the in- -
strument you buy for Christmas. The Victrola
is greatest because the company which makes it
is greatest. Buy the Victrola for Christmas and
you will always have the satisfaction of having

cry for increased and sustained pro
duction of war materials. Promin

Sims. Benson. Mayo, Rodman and
Wilson. Rear-Admiral Knapp, who
succeeded Admiral Sims in command
abroad, and the officers who partici
pated in the trana-Atlantic flight, re
ceived praise for exceptionally merl
torious service. The value of the
naval war college at Newport, R. I

found to be surplus after the war
has amounted to $70,000,000, Mr. Dan

auxiliary craft has netted $900,000.
He added that all except 300 naval
contracts made during the war had
been settled.
The records of the marine corps and
the coast guard during the war were
reviewed and highly praised and the
proposed transfer of the latter serv

the navy department was advocated.
Splendid results have been accom
plished by naval administrations in

mingo. Samoa and Guam. Secretary
Daniels declared,' particularly along

three hold-up "Jobs" Saturday night

The lone robber who was operating
Saturday night is believed not to have
been one of those who held up tne

and apparently more experienced.
Reports on the roooer operating
Saturday night indicate that he is a
bov from only 16 to 20 years of age.
In each of the three hold ups he wore
a blue handkerchief over his face.
On one occasion the revolver which
the man carried was reported to have
been nickel plated and on another
blue steel.
The first hold up Saturday night
took place at Fifteenth and Northrup
streets at 7 P. M. A sailor, who re

was leaving today for South Amer

her niece, were held up at East Sev

however, and the hold-up man ran.-
Miss Ella Murray, 1388 Mallory ave

stopped by the same boy at Cleveland
avenue and Portland boulevard at 9:20
o'clock. She said she had no money
with her at the time.
