YELLOW PERIL
'OBEY AGAIN
Threats of Japanese Invasion Used
to Bluff Congress Into Ordering
More Battleships and Strengthen-
, lag Defenses Builders Behind It.
"WASHINGTON, D. C. March 19.
Obco more the lowering yellow war
cloud glooms the country. Once
acre the threatening skeletons of
but national helplessness are drngg
& forth from their musty closets
.nd furbished np to he placed 'bo
Tore the trembling public. Once
anons the tales of 500,000 little yel
'jcrv men dumped onto our western
Jeo&sl to ravage and destroy are told
kx loncg of apprehension and dis-
War, bloody war, with the disso-:
laion of the United States at the
usai of it, the entire country impov--eraAed,
and the now free American
eiliaen ground beneath the heavy
ytMevr heel of the littlo men from
ilw st, is again foretold, with the
j:rave wagging of heads and much
3k; wailing the disnprfcnrnncp of the
Igoed old American spirit."
"Absolutely defenseless," "at the
mercy of the invader," "our unpro
leeted coasts," "our merchant mn
tibb the minus quantity," and all
JBw old stock phrases of the pntri-
najie prophet of the dire disaster of
'& nation are again in evidence. Up
'and down the corridors in congress,
an the anteroom at the Whito House,
in liotcl lobbies, along the spacious
streets of the capitul, and most of
'all, In the newspapers, are the words
ang to ho found.
Oaco more appears the "Japanese
plana for invading the Pacific
awast," found by the obiquitous "se
erot agent of a foreign government,"
who pursues his Machiavellian voca
tion from capital to capital. Half of
Ho mikado's navy is to remain at
Jaime to guard the "Britain of tho
wort' and the othor half convoying
a fleet of transports is to dump half
million little yellow men "at a
.oint of vantage on tho Pacific
ont," and from thonco tho rich nnd
prosperous west is to be overrun.
Again wo uro told that the Ameri-
can navy is an antiquated tea serv
5e; that tho navy personnel is too
small and badly officered; that the
American army is a "tin soldier or
ganization," officered by "moss
backs." .
And horrors of horrors! it is
now discovered that the American
financiers hold millions of dollars'
worth of Jnpaneso bonds, and that
the gold those bonds took from Am
erica real American gold is to be
used to finance a war against Am
erica.
But pause the worst is yet to
come we have no modern battle
ships. There the secret is out. We
need a few billion dollars' worth of
floating iron and steel. The dan
ger of invasion is immediate, there
fore let us lay the keels of a con
pie of Drcaduuughts along tho At
lantic const in the shipyards and
scare the courageous enemy away.
A few slow-going plodders ask
themselves what is all tho fuss
about f One answer is: Congress is
considering n recommendation for
two brand-new Dreadnoughts, nnd it
is a matter of history that every
time congress faces an appropria
tion for augmenting the navy there
is tho same old war scare with the
same old horrors, and the anroe old
warnings bob up more or less se
renely. The president has asked for
two big battleships, but he is not
pressing the matter. Secretary of
the Navy Meyer indorsed the recom
mendation. But he is npt begging
congress for tho ships. Who is
kicking up all the fuss?
Shush I Whisper I Maybe the
shipbuilders need the money.
