Yet these leadrs do not under estimate Brysn's great Influence in event that an open spilt between him and the man he made president should endanger the success of the domocratlo party. "There are only two men In the United States who have really large personal followlngs," said a domo crat high In the councils of the party today. "One is Roosevelt, and the other Is Bryan. It Is too early to say whether Bryan intonds to use tho support he commands In nn out and out flRht against tho .administration. But the president has Issued his pro gram, and he will havo to go through with It or admit defeat." Leaders believe the republicans will not attack the president's pro gram, as they bollove the country favors a large navy and army in crease. ' At the same time, It Is expected that a certain republican element will nnte harassing attacks on de tails of the program while professing to advocate (better preparedness. .

Increased, open opposition to the administra tion's military preparedness program among democrats themselves was seen today In the fact that both former Secretary Bryan and Floor Leader Kltchln are publicly, and firmly unfriendly to the measures. At the same time it was rumored Representative Sherwood of Ohio plans to oppose the plans. Principle, and not personalities, however, will be emphasized.

While perhaps such a- method will be necessary later" to gather enough of votes ' the administration prefers to nave tho passage of the bills a non-partisan, rather than a party plan, such as it would become under the caucus system. Moreover, there is fear that a cau cus would result in a party split a thing tnat the democrats on the former congressman, will utilize bis house floor privilege to go among members as an active lobbyist against , the preparedness program.

I Los Angeles. Nov. 9. In spite of Its defeat by Oregon, the University 1 of Southern California football team I today was declared by its backers to 'be the best in the slate. For 30 minutes, during the entire first bait yesterday afternoon,- the Trojans fought Oregon to a stand still. Neither aide was able to gain consistently, and neither goal was in danger at any time. But in tho second bait Oregon woke up. The superior weight of Coach Besdek'a huskies began to tell. They battered tbe southern line un mercifully, and the game became an Oregon parade. Mixing terrific line attacks with beautiful, long, forward I passes, tho Oregon machine piled up 34 points while U. S. C, battered and 'exhausted, struggled gamely to the ' last. ! Northern footftall emphatically has demonstrated its superiority over tho southern variety. Oregon's ndoptness at handling long, bullet like forward pusses was the surprise of the game. These boat U. S.X., and tlve southerners were "hoist with their own petard." The U. S. C. for ward passes, when not smeared, wore good only tor small yardage. In the closing moments of the con test U. S. C. became a disorganized crowd In muddy red sweaters, ban daged, bruised and beaten, some men actually crying, some out of their heads and reeling crazlly about, but all digging In their cleats and fight ing bitterly to the final whistle.

'' - Arbitration, however, to In tho. offing, as tbe means of settlement. The note to England stands as tho administration's final and unalterable declaration of principles. An abrupt demand for observance of this na tion's rights will follow at once upon any -future detentions. : j ' i Tbe United States does not eon- template asking for a "disavowal" for the future, but tor a categorical answer as to whether or not England Intends to continue her blockade which America does not recognize- and her objectionable ordera-in-councll, under which American trade has suffered. If England does not. yield, it is believed that arbitration will bo tho next resort., ", " ' Congress' possible"' intervention may be a serious factor, it was point ed out. More radical members may seek legislation aimed at shutting off, for instance, munitions of war to the allies, or even going farther and seeking to cripple them from getting even more needful supplies of food and tho like.. :Y; . The administration, however, does not favor retaliation through legis lation, and hopes to bead off any ten dency in that direction. ? The Bryan peace treaty, some say, 1b to England's advantage, for Its "breatning spell" of one year would give England the opportunity of con tinuing her .. interference without trouble before arbitration could be broached.
