HEN it comes to discussing the subject of disarmament it is wise to pay strong heed to the "words of men like General Pershing who faced the war problem first Handed and are therefore in position to talk from a practical standpoint . General PersKing favors disarmament by the nations but he made it clear and explicit before the house military committee yesterday that it would be a blunder for America to cease work and turn pacifist before such an arrangement has been brought about. None of us wants war; but we do not want to be caught unprepared if war comes," the general declared. That is the sane view. The subject of disarmament should , "e new administration takes office and fully devel ops its foreign policy. That policy once formulated should pro vide by world action for a guarantee of peace, such as can be CTlVPn hi thalAoiriiaArVT.: f ... , . j .v. vcjiuc Vl uuii, or eise ior a continuance of pre paredness operations by the United States. Uncle Sam can gain nothing by trying to play ostrich while otner countries are improving their gatlings. To express the point in anofajpr way, we should either have a tire department or make our own house fireproof. LET US STOP THIS COLOSSAL WASTE THERE is engineering authority for the statement that the most perfect steam engine working under ideal condi tions seldom found will consume six tons of coal per Horse power in one year. On the Canadian roads it is said the consumption ranges from 20 to 30 tons per horse power for a year. Assuming that 25 tons per horse power is a fair estimate in railroad operation it can be shown that the minimum available horse power at Umatilla rapids, 120,000 horse power, when measured m terms of coal at $8 per ton makes the colossal sum of Zi million dollars annually going to waste. On the other hand we can figure the problem on a basis of the maximum en gine efficiency of six tons of coal a year per horse power and we still have a waste of $5,760,000 annually through failure to make use of the power available just above Umatilla on the Co lumbia river. ... This vast economic loss is occurring continuously because in this, a region blessed with great hydro, erectric advantages, our railroads are using imported fuel which should logically be con-' a i . luc uoc "y-iuuusixies aepenaent upon coal and oil and ior the maintenance of human life in regions remote from water power advantages. The use of coal and oil fcy our raroads is from an economic standpoint a mistaken policy. It is a policy that some day must be corrected. The sooner the better, not only for this region but lor the nation at large. People everywhere suffer from the high price of fuel It is a big factor in the cost of living and people demand relief. One substantial method of relief, is to develop the water power of the northwest and stop the use of coal by railroads and other industries that may be electrified Hie federal government would be justified in developing ?pT,?Lai matllla ra?id.3 not only bause of the reclamation lit u d ln order t0 lmProve navigajion but for the further ?e move w?uId help reIieve the natin of a el cost bur den that is increasing in severity.
