Annual Postoffice Bill Carries Rider, Instructing Burleson Not to Form Separate Corps
CRy Review Leased wlrel

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1S.-The an nual postoffice appropriation biH car rying a total of $357 ,350,000 was pass ed late today by the house with an amendment requiring the postmaster general to use army aviators for mail airplanes instead of organizing a sepa- rate postal flying corps. This is the first of the 1920 supply measures to be passed by the house and it now goes to the senate.
 Supporters Of the amendment pro- viding that air mail planes shall be operated and maintained by the per sonnel of the army air service under the direction of the postmaster gen eral," argued that under this plan operation of the service would be less expensive and that at the same time opportunity would be given to train aviatOrs for the army. Opponents con tended that the division of authority between the postoffice and the war departments would interfere with the successful operation of the service.
 Other provisions of the bill direct that the secretary of war shall turn over immediately to the postoffice de- partment more than POO airplanes for extension of the service. The ma chimes specified include 100 De Havi- land fours. 100 Handley-Pages. and ten Glenn Martin day bombers. One hun dred and seventy engines also would be furnished the poStoffice depart ment
 Other amendments to the bill con tinue in effect wage increases of 15 to 20 per cent granted last year to clerks in first and second class post offices and carriers in cities. Pro vision also is made for the creation of a committee of five senators and five representatives to recommend to the next congress readjustment of the salaries of all postal employees, inciud- ing postmasters.
 Legislation providing for an in- crease of 50 per cent in the allow ances to third class pOstOffices for the hire of clerks also is contained in the bill.

Captain Laning Now Wants 217,00O in Enlisted Section of American War Fleet
Congress Debates Advisability of Acceding to His Request for Enlargement
CBy Review Leased wire)

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1S.-Leg-
 islation authorizing increase of
 the permanent enlisted strength
 of the navy from 131, 900 men to
 217,000 was recommended to the
 house naval affairs committee to-
 day by Capt H. Laning. acting
 chief of the bureau of navigation.
 This would include 175,000 sea
 men. 24,000 apprentices and fire
 men in training, 12,000 in trade
 schools for training and 5000 ill
 the flying corps.
 Captain Laning explained that this large increase of men is needed to carry out the policy of the naval bu- reau of operations. as recommended to the naval affairs committee by Rear Admiral Badger last Thursday, of making the navy of the United States equal to the most powerful maintained by, any nation of the world"
 Unless an increase in the person nel is authorized" Captain Laning said, mo expansion can be carried out. The, navy was terribly handicapped by a lack of men even before the United States entered the war Ships were only badly manned and as fight ing units were almost useless. It was not until early this year that the number of men become sufficient. When the naval reserve force is de- mobilized at the end Of the national emergency as required by present laws, the navy personnel will be even more inadequate than it was two years ago"
 Captain Laning also emphasized the need for more officers in the regu- lar and submitted a plan by which they might be obtained. It provided that permanent commands in the reg ular navy be given to temporary com- officers of the navy and of the naval reserve force upon their passing the examinations, and also, that the naval reserve officers be re- tained in the service as long as they are needed.
 Some of the committee members ob- jected to the plan. saying 1t would break down the present system of oD- taining officers through the naval academy. The incentive for going to the academy would be lost, he said, if men could get commissions with out going through the four year course at Annapolis.
 If the navy depends upon the academy for its officers Captain I.aning replied, "it can never get the required number Only GOO officers are graduated yearly from the school, while there will be a shortage of 5000 as soon as the temporary commissions are revoked. Over eight years would elapse before the required number could be obtained, even if there would not be a single retirement in that period"
 The advisability Uf authorizing big increases in the navy personnel at the present time was questioned by Rep Kelly of Michigan.
 'SWhy mot hold steady until the peace conference is ended and we see how things stand?" he asked. Tt may be that all navies except one controlled by all the powers will be done away with. In that event, money we spend .now would be wasted"
 Captain Laning replied that might

PARIS, Dec. l8.-After four days of gathering views of leaders in France, President Wilson's closest advisers say he has seen no reason to change his belief that the foun- dation of q league of nations is inseparable from the actual peace treaty itself. These ad- vices say that the president, in explaining his definition of the freedom of the seas, will reassure Premier Lloyd George that he has no intention of demanding a reduction of the British navy to a point involv- ing the safety of the em- pire, but will emphasize his feeling that the plan of a league will strengthen the em- pire.
 King Victor Emmanuel, who is ex- pected to arrive on Thursday, already has been fully advised of the presi- dents plans through conferences with Count d Cellere, Italian ambassador to the United States, but the presi- dent will take the opportunity to make personal explanations to the king and also to make clear his friend illness toward Italy.
 The hope is expressed by those sur rounding the president that the ex- change of views will clear away any partial misunderstanding which may exist in regard to MT. Wilson's atti- tude and prepare the way for the as- semblage of the conference with com plexities removed, so that it will be ready to deal with principles and any outstanding differences of opinion that remain.
 In all his conferences the president has taken opportunity to impress his views, it is said, by those who are authorized to speak for him, that no one nation is entitled to assume the role of master, or dictate the manner or the conditions of the representa- tions of others.

SENATOR'S ADOPT AMENDMENT UPON
 CHILD WORKERS
Debate on This Section Delay ed War Revenue Measure, but Leaders Hope to Pass It Monday
CBy Review Leased Wire)

WASHINGTON. Dec. 1S.-Adoption of committee amendment imposing a 10 per cent tax on profits from child labor products entering interstate commerce, was the only action by the senate today on the war revenue bill. The vote on the amendment was 50 to 12 with democrats casting all the negative votes.
 Debate on this contested provision and two hours unexpected discussion of other subjects delayed progress on the bill, but leaders still hope for its passage. by next Monday with view to securing an extended recess over the holidays. Tomorrow the senate plans to take up the amendment for repeal next July l of the existing zone system of second class postage rates, and substitution of a modified zone system. Several senators expect to deliver speeches on this subject.
 The child labor amendment, drafted jointly by Senators POmerene of Ohio, Lenroot of Wisconsin, and Kenyon of Iowa, is designed to replace the child labor law declared unconstitutional by the supreme court. Senator Hard wick of Georgia, and Overman of North Carolina, led the fight on it and on the roll call these senators voted against its adoption:
 Bankhead of Alabama, Beckham of Kentucky, Overman of North Caro- lin, Pollock of South Carolina, Sim mons of North Carolina, Smith of Georgia, Smith of South Carolina, Thomas of Colorado, Underwood of Alabama, and Williams of Mississippi.
 The amendment, which will go to conference when the senate passes the revenue bill, is said to have Presi- dent Wilson's approval.
 Constitutional questions principally were raised by senators seeking against the amendment. They also declared that it's primary purpose is not to raise revenues, but to meet the decision of the supreme court in hold ing the former child labor act uncon- stitutional
 Advocates of the legislation, includ- ing its authors, declared congress has the right to use its taxing power to deal with other subjects and con fidently predicted the amendment would be sustained by the supreme court.
 As retained in the bill, the amend ment imposes the 10 per cent tax on profits from products entering inter- state commerce from mines and quar- ries employing children under 16 years of age and from mills, factories and similar industrial establishments employing children under 14 years, or those between 14 and 16 for more than eight hours daily.
