DISARMAMENT IS A
GAME OF
ENTANGLING FEARS.
If you enjoy the sight of
a number of distinguished
and silk-hatted diplomats
running earnestly around
in a small circle, you must
not forget to examine the
current naval disarmament
conference in London.
It isn't simply because this
'‘disarmament” conference
will bring more and heav
ier arming on the part of
all concerned. It’s the way
it will work that will be
worth watching.
Start with England. The
English increase their navy
for what seems to be good
and sufficient reasons—war
in Ethiopia, threats of trou
ble in the Mediterranean,
shenanigans by the Japan
ese in China.and so on. Out
of all this, inevitably, will
come a larger British fleet.
Next we come to Ger
many. Under the recent
agreement with Britain.the
Germans will build their
naval strength up to 35 per
cent of the British fleet.
This will mean a substan
tial enlargement of exist
ing German strength.
This.in turn, draws France
into it. The French will in
sist on having a stronger
navy than the Germans
have, nd so,when the Ger
mans s*art building, the
French will do the same.
That means something to

SPECIAL ADVANCE
S l US CUIPT ION 1* IlIC E
Elsewhere in this issue
appears an advertisement
offering a subscription rate
to The Nome Daily Nugget
—$15.00 paid in advance
for a one-year’s subscrip
tion, a saving of S'J.OO to
the subscriber.
The Nugget is making a
justifiable effort to build up
its circulation and this offer
should prove interesting to
new subscribers as well as
old ones. The offer will re
main open until February
15th.
Our route carriers deliver
your paper regularly every
night. They go to every
section of the city. Here is
an opportunity for subscrib
ers to receive the paper at
a saving of nine dollars in
a year’s time—good inter
Mussolini. It is a cardinal
point in his policy to keep
Italian naval strength eq
ual to that of the French;
so when the French lay
down new ships, the Ital
ians are certain to do like
wise.
This, if you haven’t yet
got dizzy, brings us ba 'k to
England. One of the rea
sons England demands
more ships today is the fact
that the margin of superior
ity over other naval pow
ers in the Mediterranean—
meaning Italy and France,
—isn’t great enough. So
whenFrance and Italybuild
new ships, England will
have to build some more to
keep ahead of them.
Off on the outskirts will
be Uncle Sam, determined
to keep his fleet as large as
the British fleet; and in the
background are the Japan
ese, who insist that their
fleet will be the equal of
America’s.
Follow this sort of thing
long enough and you will
find yourself stepping on
your own heels. It is an as
cending spiral of the dizz
iest kind ever seen, self
starting and self-perpetuat
ing. The secret of perpet
ual motion seems to have
been discovered at last.
In plain English,the whole
stunt is wildly insane. I
build because you build be
cause he builds because I
build because—it sounds
like a game that inmates
est on your money—a trifle
more than $1.00 per month
cost you pay for your paper
Take advantage of it now.

this offer will • receive a
$3.00 saving. Daily papers
