Washington. Jan. IS. on the ques
tion of reduction nf world naval arm-j
anients. which Is now agitating Kuro-
pu.ni governments as well as the capl- .
lab of tills nation, II Is already deter-j
mined that the Republican majority in j
Congress will stand for nothing less
than a naval force sutticient to meet
any emeigeiicy that may arise in the
future. I
It has been proposed by Senator Hiir-
ah that the 1'nltvd States and Crcat
llrilaln agree to a llfty per cent redur- j
tion In their naval building programs j
for the next five years. Senator Walsh. I
c.f Wyoming, a peace-loving Pemoerat. !
Is ntteniptlng to turn this Idea to the)
benefit of the Wilson administration by
suggesting that the Culled Stntes par
ticipate In the disarmament commis
sion of the League of Nations, using
that as an opening wedge to participa
tion in the whole general scheme which
was repudiated at the polls in Novem
ber by a majority of seven million
votes.
Knghinil In (he l end
Senator lioiah s plan is really an at
tempt to sift out Just how much sin
eerily there may bo In tho disarma
ment pretences of the European and
Asiatic states which are members of
the League. Ho wants to know wheth
er ('.real lliitalii, which sent represen
tatives to tho conference nt (ieneva.
1 Intends to suit lis action to the word
and actually disarm lo any extent
agreed upon by the United States. That
Umpire Is today mistress of the sens,
as it has been shun the days of Drake,
and most liopubllcnns in Congress do
not believe it intends to relinquish thai
position except by force.
However, there has been much talk
of disarmament. The Hague confer,
ein-es discussed it. Tho peace confer
ences which assembled yearly nt Ma
honk discussed it. Hut nobody did any
thing in the way of disarming. States
men met nnd talked, but tho training
went right on. The grcntest war In
history came along and even that did
not foastc those who sought to do away
wilh war by making no preparation for
It. The League of Nations, conceived
by the lliitlsh in order to maintain ter
ritorial Integrity, was also to take up
the disarmament question. And It like
wise met recently and discussed it, but
no action was taken. Not a battleship
was dismantled. Not a regiment was
disbanded.
Wlinl Anierlen Must l'roteet,
So Senator llornh means to put all
this pretense lo the lest of sincerity.
Ho nlnia to find out whether C.reat
lliitalii means business. Otherwise he
refers tho Inquirer to his speech ad
vocating a big navy. Senator Prellng
huysen, of New Jersey, sides with him
In this stnnd. He Is a member of the
basis of that time. His figures were
admitted recently in the House of Com
mons. It has been rumored that the
flntish government would yield a pro
posal to reduce the two greatest navies
of the world and maintain them on an j
even basis, l'.ut thla Is only rumor.
Krelinghuysen Joins Borah In declaring
that unless England and Japan also
agrees to disarm thla country must
maintain the greatest navy on the
globe. This Is what he says:
"New York has replaced London as
tie banking center of the world. We
have bunplanted England as the Drat
trading nution of the earth. Our ocean
carriers have grown In three short
years so that we now are within strik
ing distance of her tonnage. We are
the greatest producing nation on the
globe. By training 4,800.000 men and
sending 2,000,000 across the sea to win
every battle In which they were en
gaged and turn the tide, we have made
Washington the capital of the world.
Our wealth, which before the war ex
ceeded the combined opulence of the
British and German empires, has gone
on by leaps and bounds. The Romanoff,
Hapsburg and Hohenxollern dynasties
whloh overawed weak nations for cen
turies, have disappeared and Ideas of
republican government are permeating
the world."
.Navy Itullt br Republicans.
All this, he goes on. means some
thing worthy of protection by a big
navy. And this, unless Oreat Britain
and Japan also concur in disarmament,
is to be the Republican policy of the
new administration. Members of that
party in Congress are mindful of the
fact that It was under Secretary of the
Navy Wm. E. Chandler, of New Hamp
shire, that the modern American navy
got its Btart, and that In the days when
the Democrats In the House and Sen
ute were constantly voting against
more battleships for the navy they
were voting almost to a man for the
construction of adequate defense.
. In the determination to maintain the
navy at the highest pitch of efficiency
'he Republicans are backed to the limit
by the officers of the navy who have
been taught In the pages of history and
the hard school of experience that talk
never prepared a nation for defense or
won a battle In time of war. They
have testified before the Committee on
Korgeln Relations, now considering the
liorah resolution, that Great Britain at
the present moment has 846 ships with
a total tonnage of 2.S29.6S1: that the
I'nlted States has 582 ships with a ton
nage of 2,007.478. and that Japan has
322 ships with a tonnage of 980.426.
They see Great Britain as the possible
rival of the future and desire that we
lie ready rather than dreaming If war
between the two nations, which now
seems impossible, should ever result.
In this the Republicans concur. One
thing Is certain: there will be no scut
tling policy.
Democrats Are Demoralised.
Not only on this question but on all
others of momentous Importance In
Congress the Democrats are completely
demoralised. In the face of the great
and prolonged debate on the tariff In
the special session to be called by Pres
ident Harding, thirty-nine of them In
the House voted for the emergency tar
iff bill designed to protect the products
of the American farmers. Trobably the
country was never so anxious for tariff
protection as It is now, and Represen
tative Crowther expresses something of j
tins sentiment by introducing a bin to
reenact the Dlngley law, which pro
vided prosperity after McKinley suc
ceeded Cleveland In 1897. The thirty
nine Pemocrats in the House foresee
this too, but the greater number of
them are bitterly opposed to the pro
tective principle, and hence the Demo
cratic party Is divided on the very is
sue which has been In the past Its main
reason for existence. The Republicans
meanwhile are alone determined that
the fnrmer, the laborer, the manufac
turer and the miner must have protec
tion from an Inundation of cheaper
made foreign goods.
Leaders Shot to Pieces.
The Democratic rout is made all the
more complete by the lack of leader-
n t.je, w .i -
stricken with paraly. i;.st ear :iii l

II is considered unlit"! thai lie .
do so for some time. 11' r:ry T Itiuio v. j
of Illinois, determined -.nti-i.d.-r fo ,
low tariff schedules ar.d right band j
man of Kitehen on ti.e Ways and
Means Committee, was also a virtim of
the November deluge .',, in Hull, of
Tennessee, tax expert of the Democrat
ic minority, gave way to a Republican
Finis Garrett, of the same state, who is
the ablest parliainer.tat ian of the
Democratic side. Is waiting to see
whether the Republican Senate will
confirm his appointment as United
States Judge.
Worst of all for the Democrats in the
House, Is the fact that they have only
129 members In the new Congress and
will be subject to the two-thirds rule
at any time. In other words, the Re
publicans will have moie than two
thirds majority and will be able to pre
vent dilatory or filibuster tactics on the
part of the Democrats by means of the
two-thirds rule, which permits any
thing except unanimous consent.
No Appealing Issues.
Consequently the minority party Is
wandering around In a slough of des
pondency and Is so far without an is
sue upon which to appeal to the coun
try. This has already resulted in their
quarreling among themselves as to pol
icy, as evidenced by the farmer tariff
vote. Divided, without leaders and
without organisation, the Democratic
party In the House seems to be In
hopeless mess. In the Senate it is more
united In opposition to any protertiv
tariff principle and is more ably led by
Senator Oscar Underwood, of Alabama,
who was one-time leader In the House
as well.
Meanwhile, the executive end is
somewhat uncertain also. When the
curtain was about to be rung down on
his official career after the "great and
solemn referendum," the President ap
pointed his secretary, "Joe" Tumulty,
a member of the Court of Claims for i
life. But the Republican Senate has
not taken kindly to "Joe" and It Is not j
likely that he will be confirmed before
March 4th, In which case he la contem
plating returning to private life In
Washington and remaining a neighbor
of his chief, who has purchased a house
here at a cost of llSO.noo. It will be;
remembered that when in New Jersey
politics Mr. Wilson applied to the Car
negie fund for a pension in reward for
his services as professor at Princeton
Senator Heflln's Vision.
"Never you mind," said Senator
"Tom" Heflin, of Alabama, the other
day. "You Republicans will get yours.
Woodrow Wilson will entirely recover
his health, the country will find that he
was perfectly right in all that he did.
and in four years he will be swept back
into the White House by a greater ma
jority than that by which Harding was
elected."
"If that Is what the Democrats are
counting on, they are Indeed in a bad
way," was the remark of a Republican
member.
In order to show him the respect In
which he is held, the majority In the
House has decided to retire their chap
lain. Rev. Henry M. Couden, who has
served in that capacity through both
Republican and Democratic adminis
trations for twenty-five years. He is
blind as a result of a wound In the
Civil War. and is becoming quite feeble
Each day Just before noon me ian,
slender figure of the aged chaplain,
rather bent with his years, and attired
In black. Is seen approaching the Capi
tol, arm In arm with his daughter. He
Is led to the speaker's desk by a page
and there pours out invecation to Al
mighty God. He is beloved by all the
members and his prayers are printed
each day In the Record. For the rest
of his life he will receive his annual
salary while in service of It. 500.
Senator Wadsworth, of New York, Is
after the sugar barons. He has intro
duced a joint resolution authorizing the
President to require the United States
Sugar Equalization Board to take over
the Importation of 13.902 tons of sugar
from the Argentine Republic procured
by the government and to dispose of
the sugar through the market.

What Is Your Telephone
. Service Worth?
Tho Pacific Telephone ami Telegraph Company lias built up a tele
phone system in Oregon from 7UJ7 stations in to iU.o'J stations in
IDL'O. This development was secured for the most part during a period
when cost of labor and materials was normal. During these 'JO years the
Telephone Company has carried out its part in the building of Oregon.
Its operating expenses have increased faster than its revenue- for the
last five years it has been operating at an increasing deficit. This condi
tion cannot permanently continue.
New capital cannot be obtained by public utilities at all except
when rates are such as will afford reasonable assurance, with oftioioiit
management, of earnings sufficient to care for legitimate fixed charges
and establish for them a basis of credit. This does not mean that rates
should be such as in themselves will supply new capital, but that they
bo such as to justify capital investments in competition with other busi
ness ventures.
The proposed rates represent a Very small increase to the individ
ual user from 21 2 to 11 cents per day. In the aggregate they represent
a revenue to the Telephone Company suliicieut to enable it to continue
to serve the public, meet its payroll obligations and show a reasonable
return upon a legitimate investment.
Adequate service is dependent upon adequate rates.
