HOUSE PASSES ON ANOTHER SEC-
TION OF NATIONAL DE-
FENSE PROGRAM.

Wuslr.ghton. The administration
|800.00n,ooo defense budget began to
tuke final shape In congress when the
house passed the fortitlcatlons bill
carrying a total of more than $.r> 1.000,-
000 for coast defenses and the house
naval committee completed Its 1018
naval appropriation hill willi a total
of more than $861,000,000.
The army appropriations bill, the
third element of the program, still Is
In the house military committee which
Is expected to complete It next week.
Kstlmates for the army reach a total
of more than $.'!t!0,000,000 exclusive of
numerous deficiency measures r#-
suiting from the border mobilization
and the rising cost of war materials.
Only One Bill Pending.
The only rnllitnry legislation pend-
ing Is the universal service lull be-
fore a senate sub-committee which
will conclude its hearing tills week
It Is not expected that congress will
take any action on the universal train-
ing bill at tljis session.
The naval bill carries a total of
$361,433,246 ns against $313,000,000
last year, and provides for the con-
struction of three 42,000-ton battle-
ships at a .\'al cost of $28,178,692
each; one battle cruiser ul a cost of
$28.694.496; three scout cruisers at
$6,746 146 each; fifteen destroyers at
$1,748,612 each; one destroyer tender
at $2,8()8,imk); one submarine tender
at $2,199,400, and eighteen 800-ton
type submarines at $1,434,093 each.
The program Is that recommended by
the department and represents one-
half of the remaining portion of the
three-year program, approved last
year.
Large Submarines Needed.
The committee departed from the
department’s recommendation only In
the type of submarines provided for.
No small coast defense Hubmerslbies
aro authorized, the committee having
decided against the sma'l 400 to 600-
ton type of boat, such us those now in
service. m
Taking up the program of getting-
under construction the four battle
cruisers authorized last year, the com-
mittee raised the limit of cost for the
hull and machinery to $19,000,000
from $16 600,000. Department of-
ficials believe all four vessels can be
placed with private bidders at that fig-
ure. The committee n’so heeded, how-
ever, Secretary Daniel’s recommenda-
tions that navy yards be fitted to build
large numbers of capital ships, author-
izing Die expenditure of an additional
$12,000,000 for that purpose, In the
event, the department is unable to
make satisfactory contracts for any
vessel in the present bill or left over
from the preceding measure. This
would make available a total of $18,-
000,000 for equipping navy yards.
Appointments Increased
' For the three scout cruisers still
awaiting satisfactory bids, the com-
mittee' raised th« cost' for hull and ma-
chinery to $6,000,000 from $6,000,000.
Another new provision of the bill
raises the number of appoir* nents an
nually at AnmipoPs t.o be made from
the enlisted personnel of the nnvy
from 26 to 100. Appointments may be
made whenever vacancies occur.
The new battleships will be the
most powerful war vessels ever built.
They will have a sneed of 22. knots an
hour and carry main batteries of
twelve 16-inrh guns each instead ol
tbe eight 16-inch guns on the four au
thortzed last year.
Literacy Test Vetoed Again.
President Wilson vetoed the immi-
gration bill, passed recently by cor
gress, On account of its literacy test
provision.
It was tbe second time that Presl
dent Wilson had vetoed an immigra-
tion h‘ll because of tbe literacy test,
and for tbe same reason simi’ar meas-
ures were given vetoes by Presidents
Taft and Cleveland.
May Override Veto.
When the message was read in tbe
house it was ordered to lie on the
tab’e and champions of the bill began
laving their plans for an effort to over-
ride tbe. veto. Two years ago the
house lacked only four votes of the
neescary two-thirds majority to pass
the bil' over the veto. The attempt
having failed in the house, no action
wrs take-’ bv the senate.
When President Taft vetoed a S’mt-
lar measure because of the literacy
test the senate succeeded in overrid-
ing him by more than a two-thirds ma-
jority, but the house fell short about
a dozen votes

London.—Two small engagements
were fought in the North Sea between
British light cruisers and torpedo boat
destroyers and German destroyers the
first time the naval forces of the two
destroyers and German destroyers, the
powers have met in combat since last
October.
An official report from London says
that in the engagement with the Brit-
ish light forces, "not far from the

post 11oops of the punitive expeditions'|stroyers was suns and the remainder
according to a message received by
Carranza consul Eduardo Soriano
Bravo. Passengers, who arrived from
Casas Grundns over the Mexico-
Northwestern railroaif, said there
were no signs of a general movement
of the punitive expedition from field
headquarters, northward when they
left Colonia bublan.
The American headquarters in Co-
lonia Dublan were being blown down
with dynamite and the flooring ship-
ped to Columbus, N. M., passengers
on the train from Casas Grandes re-
ported.
No Villa forces were seen between
Casas Grandes and Juarez, the passen-
ger said. An unconfirmed rumor here
that. Parral had been reoccupied by
Villa followers was denied at the
Carranza consulate.
Objection To New Constitution.
Washington.—(Future relations of
the Mexican de facto government with
the United Slates may be materially
affected by the manner in which the
suggestions of Secretary Lansing re-
garding the proposed radical changes
in the constitution are received by
General Carranza and the members of
the constituiJional congress now in
session at Kueretaro.
The protest delivered to the foreign
office in Mexico City against Incor-
poration in the new constitution of
provisions limiting property holdings
of foreigners and providing for other
restrictions of the rights of foreign-
ers was made after the receipt at the
state department of numerous com-
plaints from Americans with property
in Mexico. Enactment of such consti-
tutional provisions may prove cause
for diplomatic entanglements not only
with the United States government
but with other governments whose na-
tionals have invested in Mexico.
Secretary Lansing’s protest against
the adoption of a provision for confis-
cation of property was based on tbe
proposed article in which it is
stated:
"Private property shall not be seized
for public purposes without compensa-
scattered. In the other fivht, which
occurred off Zeeland, a British de-'
stroyer was struck by a German tor-
pedo, killing three officers and forty-
four men of the crew'. The damaged
craft was later sunk by ships of her
own flotilla.
Reports from Yumiden, received by
Reuter’s Telegram Company via Am-
sterdam, say that German torpedo
boats attempted to leave Zeebrugge
avoid the ice, which was very thick.
They wereimmediately attacked by a
large British squadron. The action
opened at short range and early in the
fight the bridge of the German destroy-
er V-69 was swept away by a direct
hit, tile commanded and two other of-
ficers being killed.
The V-69 fired one torpedo and was
then hit by British shells, which
knocked the funnel flat on the deck
and put a hole in the fore part of the
vessel. Her guns appeared not to
have been damaged.
The crew of the V-69 numbered
about sixty. It would appear from the
stataenients of the men that seven
other German vessels were sunk. Tho
V-69 belonged to the home fleet.
Unofficial advices from Holland say
that from two to seven’German ships
were sunk and others severely damag-
ed and that one of the latter was
towed into Ymuiden with twenty dead
on board, whi’e sxiteen severely
wounded were landed by a Dutch
steam trawler.
The most important announcement
concerning the fighting in any of the
war zones is that issued by the Ber-
lin war office, which says the Bulgar-
ians in northern Dobrudja have cross-
ed the southern estuary of the Danube
near Tultcha and have maintained
themselves on the north bank against
a Russian attack. This brings the in-
vaders close to the Bessarabian fron-
tier.
On the Russian front, in the regions
of Lake Kuggerion and near Kalnzem,
the Germans have delivered attacks
against the Russians. Both attacks
were repulsed, the latter with heavy
casualties, according to Petrograd. In

PLAN SAND CLAY ROAD.
New Highway Being Constructed

NEW SCHOOLS AT CAPITAL
Four Junior Highs Planned at Okla-
homa City.
Oklahoma City.—Reconsidering a
previous action when it voted to call
an election for a $500,000 bond issue,
the Oklahoma City board of educa-
tion, without a dissenting vote, set
January 30 as the date for an elec-
tion on a $50,000 bond issue.
The money is to be used in the
construction of four instead of three
junior high schools, costing $110,000
each; purchasing of equipment
of $50,000 for building sites; new
slate blackboards for entire system
costing $25,000; repairs to the Irving
school building (formerly used as the
state capitol), which will be used as
an administration building, $25,000,
and the other $30,000 for architects'
fess and incidentals.
Judge Adopts the Prisoner.
Durant.—Instead of sending a 14-
year-old lad brought before him for
stealing a w'atch, to the state reform-
atory, County Judge Paullin announc-
ed that he would give the lad a chance
to make good by taking him into his
home. The boy told the court that
he had no home of his own and had
had none for six years. This is the
second orphan Judge Paullin has
adopted. The first was a little girl
whose mother was unable to care lor
her properly.
Norman.—A sand-clay road across
Cleveland county is to be built by the
Norman chamber of commerce and
the farmers of Cleveland county, un-
der the direction of the Cleveland
county commissioners, according to a.
statement made by Dr. A. H. Van
Vleet, president of the chamber of
commerce and chairman of the good
roads committee of that organization.
The road is on the route running
through Chickasha, Blanchard, Nor-
man and Shawnee and crosses the-
Norman-Canadian bridge, claimed by
Cleveland county people to be the
best wagon bridge on the entire-
course of the South Canadian.
Eight miles of the road have al-
ready been improved and work will
soon begin on the remaining twenty-
four. The construction is to be car-
ried on entirely by donations of money
and labor.
