WASHINGTON. May 30. Deter mined Republican efforts to enlarge the building program of the naval ap- propriation bill as reported from the naval committee resulted today in the adoption by the House sitting as a committee of the whole of an amend ment rncreeasing the number of sub marines from twenty 10 fifty. Propo- sals to provide for six battle cruisers instead of five and to all two dread naughts and two scout cruisers to the program were defeated after a lively fight.
 In order to finish consideration of the bill by the time fixed for Friday afternoon the House had a three hour session today instead of recessing on account of Memorial Das.
 So decisive were the votes against the amendment for battle cruisers and scouts that big navy adherents virtu- ally have agreed 10 bsndor the fight for them. They still hope to get the two battleships. Another attempt will be made when the House returns to
