DISARMING MOVE
HELPS NML BILL
Compromise Proposals on Sev
eral Provisions Also Improve
Chances of Passage
SENATE RESUMES DEBATE
Washington, March -'. Pn;spectn
for passage of Hie naval appropriation
hill were Kiiid by Senate leaders to have
improved when the Senate reconvened
today to continue Un struggle.
Conferences between leading sup
porters mid opponents of (lie Senate in
creases were snld to have opened a path
toward a compromise by which tlie
hill might be saved from defent.
Ilc.sidcs thee compromise proposals
on appropriations the one outstanding
development which bus Improved the
chances for favorable action on the hill
was the adoption )eslerday nf the
amendment designed to bring about a
conference of the I'nlted States, (irent
Itiitaln mid Japan to couslder naval
disarmament.
The amendment, originally presented
by Senator llonih, wim put .before the
Senate b.v Senator Kdge and was unan
imously minuted. It lequests tlie Presi
dent to call n conference of the three
powers named at which the whole cpies
tlon of naval disarmament would be
discussed.
Try to Appease Itnrali
Compromise proposals discuse.d to
day In conferences were sn( to include
diminution from the bill of mneud
inenls for I lie Ahiiiiedn. Calif., and other
Pacific coiisi naval bases, upon which
Senators Iloi-ili mid King have centered
their lire. Reduction of committee in
rrensec for navy uvlntlmi nnd personnel
to 11 point which might lie acceptable to
(he House also was talked of.
Protracted debate before any settle
ment could be readied was predicted by
botli "Ides. At (lie outset today Senator
Pnlndcxter, in charge of the hill, gave
notice that lie Intended to keep (he Sen
ate in continuous se.-slon until u vote
.vii s hud.
Some senators said Hint the navy III il
was being used as a buffer to prevent
ci 1iHidiT.1t Inn of the soldier bonus mid
oilier legislation which various senit
tois oppice. .
The disarmament amendment was
adopted nt n secret session held nt the
reipiest of Senator Lodge, who declared
there were some nngles of the bill which
should not be discussed I", public. He
lallons between the I'nlted Stales nnd
Japan were snld to have been the chief
subject, although the nation's foreign
relations generally were discussed.
No Itonus for Arsenal Workers
Despite the long row over the nnvnl
measure the Senate last night, found
time to adopt the conference report on
the legislative, executive nnd judicial
npproprintlnn bill. That bill now goes
lo the President minus the provision
for a $2-10 bonus for nnvy yard mid
navy arsenal employes.
The House last night likewise cleared
up one piece of legislation when It voted
to accept Senate mnendinents to the
resolution repealing virtually all war
time laws, and that measure now goes
to the President,
Speaking In tlie secret legislative ses.
sion yesterday, Senutor Lodge de
clnred the existing state of lehitlons
among the leading nations nnd the spe
cillc problems confronting the Cnited
States in international affairs were such
that America should not curtail her
nnvnl building program nor suspend con
struction of vessels under contract.
Urges Passage of Naval Hill
Mr. Lodge dealt frnnkly with Amer
ica's problem in tlie Pucillc. Some of
his references to Japan were of such a
pointed nnture flint senators charged
him with raising tho "bugaboo" of war
with that power. The Itepubllemi
leader made no pretense of disguising
his desire to end talk of nnvnl disarm
ament moves by the United Stales
until other great powers had taken like
steps or actually entered n conference.
He was anxious that the ?.riO(.0(in.OI)l)
nanl appropriation bill might lie passed
before i'rltlny noon, but the burden of
his plea waB against any suspension of
naval construction such ns baa been
urged by Senator Homii.
Senator Lodge indicated the Repub
lican administration might be expected
to establish without delay n vigorous
polic) in the Pncltlc, and lie held that
adequate defensle works on the west
coast were essential to tho success of
that, policy.
While many sonntors, especially the
Democrats. led by Senutor Williams,
of Mississippi, who attacked Mr. Lodge
vigorously, und at some length, during
tho secret session, declared they re
garded the Lodge move as "an effort to
frighten us into voting for this bill."
it wns evident the llepubliciiti leader
himself regarded the whole matter mole
seriously.
Although no suggestion leaked from
the Senate's secret session to the effect
t lint Senator Lodge had indicated that
war between the United States und
Japan might be imminent or possible
Senator llonih lute lust night entered
upon nn Intimate discussion of that
question.
