Jan .11. The anli-prc-parcdnesi forces won first blood on tho floor of the Itoas" this afternoon when they prevented consideration of the Padgett bill Increasing by one-half the number of cadets at the naval academy The hill wa reported at the retiuest of the navy department on the ground that the additional officers provided arc urgent ly needed. Hy skillful maneuvering the opponents of hc bill side-tracked It In favor of the Indian appropriation bill and It utnnot be reached again this week However. It appears certain that Presi dent Wilson will rcI his demanded naval lncreaes-an Increase In the Held and coast artillcrv nf the country and the men who will benefit most b.v this preparedness I move win piy tin' hills That was tho opinion lodav not only of Admlnlsttallon leaders here, but also of many political chiefs, who nt heart are strongly opposed to tho presidential program of prepared ness. Tho speeches being made by the Presi dent are already declared to be bearing fruit. Middle Western niul Southern Sena tors and Consjrcsmen who have been working undor cover to sidetrack any real Incroarp of the army and navy nro beginning "to hear fioin the cornfields." It was learnfd today. Hack home the people are becoming Im pressed that there Is an actual need for nt least ,i big nary, according to several of tho chiefs of the secret opposition, and today the Administration leaders wore elalmln,' a clear majority In both houses for the naval program before the Presi dent nets back here l-'ildny afternoon. THE NAVV I-'IHST. The big suggestion that has provided a "get toRcUicr" plan for spending money on the navy has been the statement that a way yet will be found to get around I the constitutional provision that hereto fore has teemed to mako munitions manu facturers eNcinpt from an Internal leve nue lax. Some of the sharpest legal minds In Consress aro working on this proposition and thy Insist that when they get through they will have a bill that will make It possible to force munitions manufactuiers to pay most of tho nation's bills and at the same time exempt sup plies purchased by the United States. It Is realised that President Wilson will ingly will inipport such a tax If It legally can be Imposl. - So far. however. It seems likely tract only the naval p! s and pait of tho army program, which provides for much need ed field artillery and for the replacing of coast ciiuipmcnt with much higher powered armament and mobile nrtlllcry mounted on armored trains, will get con gressional approval. AltMV PLANS SECONDARY. The little army men are in the saddle In the House and they arc opposed to the Administration's plan of a larger army. They will likely consent to appropriations that will bring the national guard up to date and that will create a reserve store of rllles. liut that is about as for as they are likely to go under picsent conditions. The President's statement that the "navy Is the first line of defense" will be accepted as a reason why all the cash available at picsent jhoulil be expended cm bringing it up to date.
