Washington, May 8.?Thp Senate today approved President Roosevelt's $1,157,000,000 naval expansion pro gran^ placing the United States in the van of the greatest international scramble for sea power In the world history. The vote wag W to 28. The measure empowers this gov ernment to ^MMP the rearmament programs of other nations with con struction of the most powerful war ships ever floated* It precludes, how ever, the poasfidlity of the United States precipitating a race of super warships by limiting the size of fu ture hMBesidps to treaty specifica tions of 85,000 tons unless it is de termined Oat foreign powers are building in excess of treaty restric tions. : \ I In the latter event, the-United States will be authorized to construct super-dreadnaughts of 45,000 tons, . armed with deadly l8-1neh guns. 1 Such vessels have never before been . contemplated. The authority to build | them is regarded as a direct warning , to the rest of the world that the j United States will more thaii match j their naval might if the lid is blown jff the present building race. Voting for the bill was 40 Demo- , nuts and seven Bepublicans. Voting j igainst were 17 Democrats, seven Be- , publicans, two Independents and two j Farm-Laborites, - i' ^ : . Opponents of the expansion pro* \ tram charged that President Roose velt had embarked on a Sew and iaageroua policy that requires a luper-navy tor "power diplomacy,'' tnd warned that snch a policy would ead the United States along the road to war. Bitter attacks On the administra ion foreign policy, even before the neasure readied the Senate floor, irew a flat denial from Secretary of State Cordell Hull that the United States has any understanding or sommitment, implied or contem plated, with a foreign nation for joint nflkary or naval action. This' fol owed charges that President Boose rdt desired the super-navy tn joint iction with Great Britain. The expansion bill authorizes a general 20 per cent increase over reaty limits in the fleet's fighting itrength and 60 per cent increase in he size of the air corps. It provides specifically for construction of 46 ombatant vessels, 26 auxiliary units \ mi a minimum of 050 airplanes to { five the naval sir arm at least 3,000 t Irst-line planes. ] ? i ? ?

Elaborate plans "are now being formed to make this the finest fes tival yet held. For the past two years : the big combined festival has been : held in Goldsboro, but it was decided ' by the executive board of the Asso ciation to give the other towns in the ' Association the privilege of having 1 the combined Festival. The Festival promisee to be best \ >pt staged, because it will be the first time that all the Junior High School \ and Adult Choruses in the Associa tion have participated. \ The program will be educational Xs well as entertaining.. The entire ] Festival will center around the musi cal pageant, "A Musical Holiday," ] written and directed by members of the Association. The story goes like ] this: * It is the custom fo nil the brown- * lbs and fairies of the forest to meet * in fhe spring at a certain clearing in ^ the forest fdr a day of music and Ming. The queen of the fairies then i Belects agirl from the forest, who is 1 themosthftautifttland has the Iovliest ^ voice, to reign as Queen of Song over J this great festive day. The queen ^ la frund iliid with her attendants is 1 esccited to the ihrone by the bnrwn- 1 ies and fairies and a host ofmtfclical 1 notes. After the queen is crowned, 1 It is in her power to have any Mad 7 rf Song she desires. Whereupon the 1 ?ueen calls for Irish Folk Songs?and 1 presto or Irish Folk chorus appears 1 and sings Irish Folk songs for her v najesty. The queen is so pleased that ^ she cails for more Songs- from the 11 >ther countries. Then an Italian, 8 Russian and English folk chorus Up- ( pears in order and sings its folk * wngs. 8 Everyone is noWaodfippy and filled ^ Jrith the spirit ofidfig that they all 1 vant to sihg. The brownies and fair- * lea join together in the singing of 1 teveral songs. The Musical Notes s :une up and sing for their queen. For 1 i grand climaT all the nations are nought together and sing of peace ind love. 1 The brownies and fairies will be 8 played by junior choruses from Snow ^ lill,Winterville and Ayden. The High e School choruses from the same schools c vifl represent the musical notes. The 1 [our Symphonic Choruses' will each 8 ??present a nation: Goldsboro, Rus- 11 da; Snow Hill, Italy; Fafmvilie, Ire- 1 and; Ayden, England. c Everyone will he in beautiful cos- M ume; the junior girls will be en- ? dianting as fairies with their many c ?lored wings; the junior boys will be & nopt attractive as brownies with their ray jackets; the High School chorus- 1 ss will be dressed in black and white, G ?presenting musical notes, and the E idutt chotfuses will add to the picture ? vith their colorful folk costumes. ' ' 3 Hie entire festival has been plan- * led with the desire to entertain every n nember of the community, young or v >ld, but even more, to be educational ?! ind inspiring. Xisny will hear fam- c >us folk songB for the first time. And vith the powerful influence of the ] rreat songs it is hoped that everyone nude bat brtto living. ?nmd Steward 1 jnuiu mevnuu) um ouo kiico jwu* ? ng^to Grand Master, thiB week. 4aA ftl* 4La ?LJLILII nlniifnj ^ - MJ ># 1. ice oy tne new eieotea urana aiastcir, larry T, Paterson, of Wilmington, ?t -a he concluding Bewion of the Grand C wjcMn ?RakighnS^ ?' ^?f^1 ^ro^im' ^ ? ftAn /*? vatrtTnn BID FOR OLYMPICS k I Ml i I .M i ~hT~ .1 ? ii ??
