Recom mendations of the navy general board for the building program for 121 include two battleships, one battle cruiser, ten scout cruisers, five destroyer, flotilla leaders and six sub marines:. "The navy of the United States should (Ultimately be equal to the most powerful maintained by any na tion of the world, not later than 1925 the report adds. The statement of policy as tothe ultimate strength tf the nary and the time when it should be achieved Is reiteration of the board's position as carried in its report to Secretary Dan iels each year since 1915. Contrary to his custon for the last years. Mr. Daniels did not make pub lic ;tbe board's recommendations when his. own annual report was re pleased, although it was attached to 'that document as it went to the pres ident, i Mr. Daniels did not hlmfelf recommend any building program", withholding this for later presenta tion, t - ' ... i ' Naval Expaautfon Xrged. la, its recommendations, made pub lic today at the department, the gen ; erafrbDard urged a policy of naval expansion that will guarantee protec tloiucf coast lines and the rapidly ex 1 panaing merchant marine against any naval power In the world. Such protection, the board ' declared, can be bad only by increasing American i sea 1 power to a point where it is ! "second to none" and maintaining it I at that le-vel. . . The i board further asserted tha; the war having demonstrated that possession of a fleet powerful enough to protect its commerce is vital to any nation Ja time of hostilities, the main tenant of such a navy by the United States jwould be a great precenta tlve of "war; ; for no nation would lightly provoke hostilities when heir own Commerce would thereby be Im perilled, - Tbo :' necessary future strength 'oL the Amrieaa navy, there fore, must depend, the board said, up o nthej naval strength of the "pow ers in I a position to challenge our legitimate commercial expansion up on then high seas."

The German fleet, the board declared in this connection, was handicapped and not strengthened by the presence of pre-dreadnaughtsof slower speed and light armament in the battle of Jutland." because they reduced "the maneuvering iand fight ing powers of the entire forte.' ' Scout Cruiser II rid Important. Emphasizing the deficiency of the American navy in scout erasers, the board, 'recommending the f construc tion o f ten cf these chips, cited the value of such craft to the British fleet during the war and declared them to he essential to -"any well bal anced" nary. Recommending con struction .of five ships of the super destroyer type, the board emphasized the usefulness of such ships in con nection with destroyer operations. As a means of applying and developing the lessons of the war in submarine construction, the board recommended construction of six types of pilot sub marine rather than a large buildin program in present types. One de stroyer and one submarine tender completed the program. For development and construction of craft during the year the board recommended an appropriation of J27.000.000 with $6,000,000 to b used for experimental construction.

The only sure way to get rid of dandruff is to dis solve It, then you destroy it entire ly. To do this, get about four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at eight when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub ft I in gently with the finger tips.

(Continued from page 1 The governor's office does not ac cept Judge Lovell's interprets km of .the section and believes that the governor will have no control uf the members of the legislature, once f hay are called, re'atlve to what shall corf before the legislative body." W. A. Ddlziel. deputy state rent er of weights and seasures. intimates that be will favor a change in the gasoline test act, passed by tho ses sion of 1919 which fixed a spscific gravity of 56 degrees as the require ment cn all gasoline sold in the state. This act has resulted in a shortage of gasoline in the state which early last fall became an act ual famine and caused the sealer's department with the sanction cf Governor Olcott and State Treasuf-r Hoff to allow fuel ot 4 degrees spe cific gravity to be sold In the slate on permit for a period of 1 days. V'Hle there Is no famine at the pres ent time. Mr. Dalziel describes the situation as a "hand to mouth" con dition in which one shipment reach es the state barely in time to for2tall a : famine when the previous ship ments are exhausted. Situation Need Relief - Mr. Dalziel says he is willing to see the law changed at the special Feaslon In such a way as to relieve the shortage and prevent the Inrreas n price' which is threatened by the fuel companies. At the present tim Mr. Dalzlel says that as far a be knows no gasoline of less than 6 degrees is being sold in the state and that there will be no letting down of h- -r until authorixed by the stat ? legislature. His department was se- I v- -ey criticized on the previous oc- casion. Seven Salem pumps were closed early in November for dls-j pensing a grade lower than 5. but allowed to open when filled, with the required grade. Mr. Daliiel will endeavor tohave legislation enacted next month pro viding for higher salaries for hia four dis'rict depnties. The deputies now receive SI 00 a month and not to( ex ceed f a year traveling expense?. Some IeHverie ncreaeI Whether other salary Increase bills will be introduced at the session I problemit'cal. It must be remem bered, however, that the last session smothered efforts for. Increased sal aries tht were made In the legisla ture In behalf of the tax commission er, insurance commissioner, corpor ation commissioner and state super intendent of schools. Since the" cost of livine has continued to go uo since , the 1919 session U Is is a possibility that efforts for sal-, fry increases win again oe maae in January. The last session increased the salaries of the supreme court justices, the secretary of public ser vice commission, the' warden of the state penitentiary, the dairy and food commissioner.' the secretary of the state board of control and the district! attorney of Gilliam. Sherman and Wheler counties. ' . State Treasurer O. P. Hoff think he may ask the legislature to trans fer certain eppropriations made In his department. The appropriations are itemized aa made last winter. nid. according to Mr. Hcff. leave him short In come parts of the de partment and long on lands in oth ers. He prefers to have the appro priations lumped -so that be can use it for office expenses as be sees fit. Cpimnitmeat Act Needed R. B.

It was Intended that the statute should apply to the girls' school, but was dropped somewhere in the pro ceedure of putting the bill through. .A eaTety commission is advocated by C. H. Gram, state labor commis- sioner, and he doubtless will cause a bill to be introduced providing for this. He would havthis commis sion operate tinder the jurisdiction of his office. There is a defect In the constitu tional amendment adopted by the people at the special election last June providing for state guarantee of Interest on Irrigation and drain age district bonds and an effort will be 'made to have this remedied. The amendment provides that that state, if the irrigation securities comrols eion approves a request made by the residents of a district after they hava v6ted on the question, shall guaran tee interest on the district bonds for one or more ot th. first, five- year.'1fl lRend!nc fcanr ,0 tfcs hop,tal n. is !

Olcoit? fcujnrr-U BUI - Governor Olcott In his statement announcing that be would call a spe cial session pointed out . among oth er things the demand for an Increase in the rate of compensation allowed Injured workmen under the compen sation act and he need of an appro priation to cover an estimated $300. 000 or more, deficiency under, the e'ducatloal aid bill for soldiers, sail ors and marines, also the question of capital punlehment and ratification of" the national woman suffrage amendment. The capital punish ment measure would have to be a constitutional amendment referred to the people. t Home Druggists and Doctors Take and Recommend Number 40 For The Blood Mr. Theodore Gerke of The Gerke Drug Co., states: "A year or so ago my wife came 'into the drug store and said she was going to tahe a blood medicine. , She looked over the kinds we had on the shelf and decid ed to trv Number 4 0. After taking it a w'lile she gave it to our son and one day I was 'com plaining of that tired feeling and she said. 'I will do yon on Number 40.' and she did. and it helped me sn much that I have been recommending it to my custom ers and buy. in gro?s lots." With "scarcely an "exception, druggists Ir Evansville andUhis vicinity unani mously endorse and recommend Number 40. .
