SOUNDSALARMS
Speakers Attack Wilson'i Foreign
Policy and Say Army and Kary
Utterly Inadequate.
(WOOD WANT3 BIGGEST NAVY
WASHINGTON, Jan. 21. Attacks
Inn the administration's foreign poli
ties and pointed references to "the
lutter state of unpreparedness of the
'army and navy" and the awakening
of public opinion on the subject of
adequate defense were features of
addresses by prominent speakers to
ld ay before the National Security
lengue.
An arraignment of the foreign poll
utes of the administration was made
iby Henry A. Wise Wood, chairman of
(the conference committee on national
defense, New York.
Bf Fnrrlaa Poller
'It irmy be paid with aceum-v that
we have no foreign policy at tho mo
ment." he suld. "With the destruction
"t our citizens while upon foreign mer
chant ahlps or upon our own merchant
Jveaaela, we pffer no armed Interforenre.
Inor do we offer armed interference wh.Mi
lour citizens, while upon foreign noil, aro
.destroyed, their wives and children out
'raed, their property confiscated.
'Furthermore, It Is. to he dnihted whether
'at tha moment we are wlllin tu enforce
by armed Intervention such of our do
mestic policies aa are lnlmlrol to the In
terests of foreign nations. He said then
were, however, certnln IndicatiiMis that
we are about to experience a nation
wide reaction of public opinion whlih
cannot fall to crystallize Into a national
plrlt, finding expression In a definite
jode of policies dealing with forelyn af
fair, In order to sustain which the
United Plates, If need be, wilt declare
war.
Wants nifta-eM Sa?r.
Mr, Wood said tne United States should
formu'ata a naval policy that would bear
the full brunt, if necessary, of a coill
tlmi of powers, He advocated a naval
policy that would "maintain at all times
in the Atlantic a force superior to that
of Germany, In the Pacific a force su
rertor to Japan; protect ti e Fanama canal
agamst capture or destruction by land
or sea, or Injury by air."
"The present machinery of our Govern
ment is utterly unfitted to deal with our
major problems," declared Charles G.
Curtis of New York, a prominent manu
facturer of ship turbines. "I'onsress
should follow the advice of the general
hoard and adopt Its proifam without de
lay.! The co-operation of the ship buill
era should be enlisted and both private
and government yards should be put into
condition to build all the warshlpa neees-
aary with the greatest possible rapidity."
"Siary Department Haa Ko Brain."
George Von L. Meyer, former secretary
cf the navy, declared "the fundamental
defect of the Navy department la that
It haa no brain," no competent military
organization charged ' with the prepara
fcro ot fleets for war and wttb their
ejaaduo in war and In consequenca the
tiavy la being built and administered
on a peace basis and is not being effi
ciently prepared for tho war service,
"w, add to our difficulties," ha- con
tinued, "by being the only civilized na
tion that haa not a budget system." He
urged the fortification of the Panama
canal and the additional protection of
it ; by the navy, a definite naval building
program, abolition of useless navy yards,
necessary Increase of personnel with the
increase of tonnage, establishment of a
national council of defense, prompt or
zanlzatton of ft naval reserva of over
25,000 men. and creation at ft navy gen
eral staff.
American Merchant Marina.
p. H. W. Ross, president of the Na
tional Marine league, advocated "an
American merchant marine owned by
Americans, manned by Americana, and
at the beck and call of our government"
Henry Woodhouse of the Aero club of
America declared that by spending $2B.
COn.MO the United States could be made
fifth in aeronautic equipment and atlll
would le ranked by Oreat Britain,
France, Germany and Russia. The back
hone of an aerial naval reserve could be
created, he said, for $5,000,000 by increas
ing the army and navy equipment and
MIfs Mabel Boardman of the executive
committee of the American Red Cross,
made u plea for support In the organi
zation's part of national preparedness
ieadi)pss to care fr- those who suffer
in defense of their country.

BREAK RECORDS
AT STOCK YARDS
Run of Live Stock Tirst Five Days
of Week Surpasses Record
Hade Last Year.
RUN OF HOGS IS VERY LARGE
Records In the banner year, 1915,
have already been broken at the
Omaha Union Stock yards. Compila
tions yesterday 4t the office of the
company show that the previous big
week's run of live stock, made during
the week ending October 16, 1916,
has already been surpassed this week.
During October of last year all
former - records for one week s re
ceipts were broken, when 2,810 cars
of live stock were received at the
local market, but this record was of
but short duration, as for the five
dcys of this week there has already
been received 2,854 cars of stock, and
the prospects of at least 200 cars for
Saturday, which will make tho new
record week run well over the 3,00.0
mark.
Not only haa I ho week's record en total
cars of live stock been broken, but with
the heavy run of hoga that has been run
ning during tho last week tho five daya'
total haa very r.rarly equalled tho record
week's run on hogs, which was mads
during the weeit ending February 17, 1912,
when a total of 1 40S cars, or 102,784 head
of hogs, were received. The five days of
the present week total 1,364 carloads of
hogs, or 101,000 iiend, and, aa the Saturday
recelpta are principally hogs, every In
dication points to the establishment of a
new record for a week on hog recelpta.
