The importance o? Pearl Harbor as the rote of the Island or Oahu l-fnHeH rind the lmsiH of the Unitfid Btati'H dcft'imi'S In the Pacific was emph.iHh'Zfl hy naval officers who toured the ba with u i:irty of news papermen. The immediate improvement needed ftt Pearl Harbor, the naval officers pointed out. is the dredKins "f tin channel to a depth of 4". feet, to per mit the en trance of miKhtiest United Htatt's dreadnau'ht under any weather conditions. DeepenliiK of the chan nel to fret would also provide a port of refuse for crippled battleships with Increased draft. The anchorage ftt the harbor would be increased by the drcdtfinK of some shoals and would Rccoinmod.-ite the en lire ar mada In cases of war. Another need to which naval offi cers referred was that of aircraft hav inj? a larger crulHinK raiiK than ma chines now Jiere possess, in this con nection It was pointed out that air craft defending the island of Oahu in the recent sham battle against attack ing sea forces, was unable to sight the attacking fleet soon enough to prevent the successful landiiiK of n force of marines at Haleiwa. due to to the re ntrlcted cruisiiiK railius of the air forces. Posylhllity of danger to Pear Har bor in event of war was seen when the naval officers began discussing the sea fishing privileges now held in many cases by companies composed of aliens Ineligible to citizenship. The fishing rights were granted to larpe estates by tho monarchy years ago and the estate in turn leased the rights to com jinnies. It was pointed out that nam pans owned by such companies have free range of waters even inside Pear! Harbor proper, permitting them to gain Invaluable knowledge of tho harbor defenses. Tho Kole solution of this problem, it was said, hy the officers would be tho condemnation of all private fishing rights by the government. PRESSED BY ROBERT A.B0P IMS CHARGE OF DODGE CO. SALE !S .

The I'nlted States will have certain constructive suggestions to offer the international conference for control of traffic in arms, Itepreseu tnitve Theodore Hurton of Ohio, told the conference today. One of the most Important, he said, concerned additional measures to ileal with the traffic In poisonous gases with the hope of red Tiring the barbarity modern warfare. of PICE'S SPEECH AT LONDON, May 6. ( liy the Asso ciated Press.) The hading journals of Uritiyh opinion today emphasize the significance of tho address before the Pilgrims society last night by the new American Ambassador Alanson li. ; Houghton, in which he declared that, .unless a peace haued on good will were reestablished in Kurope. he feared the I'nlted States would cease to play a sympathetic part in the tusk of re construction. I'Yet-h from his conferences with President 'oolidge and Secretary of State Kellogg, the latter of whom he succeeds at the Court of St. James, the ambassador reached the crux of hia address when be said: "The full meas ure of American helpfulness can be obtained only when the American peo ple are assured that l he time for de structive methods and policies has passed nnd that the time for peace ful upbuilding has come." At his side as ho spoke were the JJrltish prime rnf Ulster Sta nley J ia Id- win, tho JJuko of Voi lt. King (leorge's second son, other eminent and repre sentative Knglishmen and the Inter ested envoys of several foreign coun tries. Including Corinany. Mr. Houghton's remarks are given conspicuous typography and our nest editorial comment this morning. The Cimes says: "This authoritative re minder that good faith and a real de sire for peace are absolutely neces sary If active American Interest In Ku rope Is to be developed and confirmed is of great weight at the present mo ment. It Is moreover, in accordance with the instinctive trend of Jritish opinion. "Mr. Houghton's significant speech has far greater direct political value than a torrent of rhetoric on the old theme of A nglo-American relations. vldontly the new ambassador means business."
