What's What a Washington By. CHARLES P. STEWART Central Press Staff Writer. TASHINGTON, D. C.

After all, big navy. ites do not need to feel very badly. The London treaty, ratified by the senate 58 to 9, just before adjourning July 21, does not! mean much. The bargain was a mere gesture, as diplo. mats express it.

On this country's part, it was STATE, WARNAW a gesture by the BUILDING administration, just as it was a gesture by Ramsay McDonald's labor cabinet in England, and by the executive branch of the government in Japan. If the senate had refused to vote approval of our administration's gesture, it would have been a snub to President Hoover. If parliament refuses to a approve Premier MacDonald's gesture it will be snubbing him, and the Japanese administration will be snubbed if the diet refuses to ape prove its gesture. Parliament and the diet probably will not refuse, however. NATURALLY NO ADMINISTRATION enjoys being snubbed.

At best, it is unpleasant. At worst, sometimes it is politically damaging. Thus the senate's ratification. of the London naval compact was a vindication of one of President. Hoover's policies.

In that respect it was of material consequence. As for the treaty Itself, it makes mighty little difference, either way, to the United States. It may make a trifle more difference to England, because the British do a great deal more honest-to-good-1 ness warship-building than we do. Japan also takes its navy more seriously than we take ours, hence per haps is more genuinely interested in the compact than we are. IT IS HARD to believe that the little group of senators, who fought treaty, ratification, did not see the Bernard Family Reunion The annual reunion of the Bernard family will be heid at the WIlmington fairgrounds, Sunday, August 10.

of the Congo. It's a Wow! It will entertain you--enthrall you -thrill you! agreement's intrinsic 'Inconsequentiality; it is so exceedingly obvious. An easier belief is that they about as Senator Hiram W. Johnson estimated the Kellogg nunciation-of-war pact, which the Californian referred to as "complete nothingness," when it came up for ratification year or so ago, and voted for out of politeness to ing Secretary of State Kellogg, its negotiator--as harmless, anyway. Nevertheless, Senator Johnson led the opposition against the Londor naval treaty, backed by a few other irreconcilables.

ON THE THEORY that this small handful of recalcitrants really cared nothing in particular, pro or con, about the naval pact, why was It that they bucked it so energetically? -after acquiescing in the Kellogg bargain with only one dissenting ballot, cast by Senator Blaine of Wisconsin, who, by the way, voted to ratify the more recent naval treaty. It almost looks as if Senator son and followers wanted to snub President Hoover--the treaty being mainly his treaty and Ramsay MacDonald's. The Kellogg treaty, be it recalled, was framed up in President Coolidge's time. The naval understanding is supposed to have been worked. out by President Hoover and Premier MacDonald, sitting on a log across the Rapidan last summer.

THE ORIGINAL Hoover-MacDonald plan was naval reduction treaty. As finally signed, it does not effect reduction, but only fixes a naval limwhich is so high that America will dred have million to build a good many hunworth of ships to get up to it--unless we choose to remain outclassed by the British. Japan also gets a larger navy. The agreement's signatories are limited also to certain types of armament which suit the British admirably but are not much good for us, according to most of our naval experts; but no matter it is unlikely we shall build many such types anyway. We shall lag behind instead, probably.

Finally, the treaty limit is not hard-and-tast limit. It the rate of building by the world's non-treaty powers begins to worry any one of the treaty powers (meaning Britain), the worried power can take the limit off and bulld warships as fast as it chooses.
