CONVENTION
HALL PROJECT
TO BE OPPOSED
Democratic Leaders Say They're
Against Loading Up City
With Bond Issues
MAYOR is STRONGLY
IN FAVOR o FSCHEME
Points To Experience Of st.
Paul, Where Auditorium Is
Self-Supporting

Mayor Marks plan for munich
pally-built convention hall. as pro-
posed In the charter amendment to
be submitted to the people In the
spring election, will encounter strong
opposition from the Democratic lead
ers.
The charter amendment proposes
the creation of a convention hail COM
mission Of five persons, TO be appoint
ed by the mayor, to hold Office during
his will and pleasure. This commits
sion shall have power to acquire a
convention hall site, and to buffd a
hall, site and hall to cost not more
than $1,5O0,000. The amendment also
provides for q bond issue TO cover
this expense. Before any bonds can
be issued, however. they must be ap-
proved by the people In another cleo
tion.
Leading Democrats, while they re-
fuse to come into the open with a
definite attack on the amendment, do
not hesitate to say. In private, that
the city Is In danger or overlooking
itself with bonds for improvements
that ought to be obtained In some
other way.
I'VE seem to be bent on rushing
madly to the legal limit of bonded in
Idebtedness, merely because we have
the power to do So" said one promi-
|nent Democrat. "Tn my opinion, the
convention hall should be left to pri-
|vate enterprise. do not approve of
the plan Of saddling the coming years
with the payment Of improvements.
even of permanent improvements. We
can't foresee what our needs will be
In those years; we may be paying
for things which we have outworn.
and may need our resources for other
things"
Mayor Marx suggested the conven-
ton hall In his annual message TO
the common council. Secretary Fitz.
gerald says that the city hall bulletin
board will be used, during the cam.
paign, to give the voters information
regarding the project.

Gerard Told to Ask Germany
for Copies to Aid in
Drafting Note.
WILL DELAY U. s. PROTEST

WASHINGTON, July s0.-The State De-
partment has instructed Ambassador
Gerard At Berlin 10 ask the German
Government to furnish the United States
with certified copies OF the papers OF the
American steamship L%selanaw. torpe-
doed by a German submarine on the
Scotch coast last sunday.
Though the State Department has
fairly complete Information about the
Leeianaw case. II In considered that ex-
animation into ships papers 10 necessary
before any bill for damages can be rem
dered to Germany. 1t 10 probable that
all representations IN the case will be
delayed until the Department Is in IA posi-
ton to draft a note covering all details
and facts involved. This will include a
statement from the owners OF the Lee
ianaw. which has not yet been forth
coming.
II 10 required by international law that
a commander Of a warship when taking
a prise or sinking . vessel shall take
charge Of the ships papers. This was
done by the German submarine COM
mander in the case of the Leelanaw and
the papers constitute the evidence TO
establish many Of the facts on which
may rest a determination as to whether
the ma val commanders action was Justi-
fed by Law or not.
The United States Ia prepared to con-
tend In the Leelanaw case that II was Q
violation OF both international law and
the treaty Of 1928 between the United
