REPUBLICANS MAY
ADD TO 'STEERERS'
Leaders Expect That Com
mittee Will Be Enlarged to
Meet Objections.

Republican leaders, including fol-
Speaker-elect Gillett and former
Floor Leader Mann. now seem to
incline to the opinion that the re-
publican steering committee will be
enlarged to meet objections raised
in the committee on committees.
When the committee on committees
was closing its business Representa-
tive Royal Johnson of South Dakota
sprang a surprise by endeavoring to
have the steering committee enlarged
by five men and Offering the names of
Gillett followers to represent the west
the south and labor. He was emphat-
icallr voted down.
Representative Reavis of Nebraska
has just returned to Washington and
has announced that he will ask the
republican caucus to enlarge the
steering committee. but will make his
motion different from that of Repre-
sentative johnson by not attempting
to name the new members.
The committee on committees voted
down the johnson proposal because
1t had been instructed by the party
caucus to name a committee of five.
That limitation was made by the Gill
lett followers and was accepted by
the Mann following. which dominated
the committee on committees
1t is now thought that both of these
rival camps will agree to enlarging
the membership of the steering COM
mittee in the interests of party har-
mony and to protect the party from
any possible criticism that any sec
ton of the country, that agriculture
of labor was not given fair repre-
sentation.
The obvious procedure to accom-
plish this. it is pointed out by mem
bers Of the steering committee, is for
the proposal to be made to the caucus
for enlarging the steering commit
tee. and that if the caucus approves.
as is expected. then the caucus should
instruct the committee on committees
to appoint the new members. just as
1t named the present five members
under instructions from the caucus.

RUSS|A'S SALVATION
RESTS0N SLAy GAINS
DR.. Ales Hrdlicka Says the Stock
Is Europe's Great Human
Reserve Force.

Russia's salvation hinges on the
steady increase in the Slav popue-
tion of the country. which aireaoy
comprises more than half of the totai
number of inhabitants. in the opln-
ion of DR.. AIes Hrdlicka of the Ma
tional Museum.
In an article issued today Or.
Hrdlicka seeks to show that the dlf-
ferenceS in makeup of the various
peoples who inhabit Russia is big
factor in the turmoil of that country.
The professor is confident however,
that the SlavS will gradually increase
to point where they Will dominate
the country and guide it into a sta bie

What will be Russa'S future? Per
haps the anthropologist may attempt
to predict where others would hesl-
, tate.
THE Russian Slavs. taken collec-
hundred millions. and they are IN.
creasing yearly by the excess or
births over deaths by LOO 900. Thi"
rate of increase is greater than that
of any other people in Europe except
, some of the other branches of the
Slavs, and with the mass of the peo.
pie belonging to the conservative
simple-lived rural population. cannot
be expected to become much reduced
in the near future. Such a rate of IN
crease OF tnls otherHlSe StToHS anu
able portion of the white stock means
a biological momentum which IN tn"
end must prevail over all opposition.
Russia cannot but have a future
commensurate with her potentia!
powers"
From the anthropological stand
point, adds DR.. Hrdlicka. the Russian
stocl>is well developed. virile and re-
sstant. He believes it may truly be
, regarded as the great human reserve
force of Europe. If it has not ad-
vanced in culture as rapidly as the
western and southern populations of
Europe. the causes are geographical
and circumStantial rather than in
herent or racial. 1t must not be for
gotten, reminds DIR. Hrdlicka. that
Russia deserves the deep gratitude of
the western nations for acting from
its inception as a buffer between Asia
and the rest of Europe.

JAPAN MAY TAKE STEPS
TO OPEN HER OWN DOORS

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.
TOXIC, March 5.-A bill conferring
the right of land ownership upon for
eign residents in Japan is reported
to be under the consideration of the
government. Discussions of the league
of nations have convinced many Japa-
nese that Japan must take steps to
open her own doors wide if she wish
es other nations to listen to her de-
mands for equal treatment.
For these reasons it is reported
that the government is considering
legislation giving foreigners right of
land ownership, mining rights and
rights of coastwise trade; also legis-
1ation for the free admission Of Chi
nese labor.
A law giving foreigners the right
to own land in Japan was passed by
the imperial diet in 1910, but the en-
forcement of the act, like many
others, has been reserved" and
never put in operation.

NOISY FOURTH

Although Bridgeport will endeavor to have a safe and sane" Fourth of July, for the first time in four years the use of fireworks and firecrackers will be permitted, according to an or der issued late yesterday by Mayor Clifford B. Wilson. The ban will be raised on everything but revolvers and cannon. Indications point to a real Fourth" of the old-time variety. Dealers will be permitted to sell fire works between July l and July 4.
 George NJ Flames, president of the Park Board,j has announced the city will provide display of fireworks in the evening, probably at Seaside park and, if arrangSments can be made, at other parks throughout the city.
 Fire Chief Daniel F. Johnson has made the announcement that permits to sell fireworks will be received up until July l.
