ROME, Monday. December 30 (by
the Associated PreSs)-In speech in
the senate today Signor Schanzer.
minister. of the treasury. expressed
the hope that within six months in
ternational conditions would be such
real peace footing. He promised to
follow a policy of the strictest econ
omy, and said that as one way of
assisting the nations industries it
would he his aim 20 attract tourists

Dealing with the problem of the
high exchange rate. the minister said
that the American government had

governments without Italy having
been consulted. The United States,
he predicted, would sustain serious
losses in commerce If it did not .sopeG

Italy was negotiating on the sub

Regarding the loan situation, Signor
Schanzer declared that if the wealthy

ously to the appeal for a loan the gov

SUGAR BOARD BILL SEEN
TOO WEAK FOR CONTROL
Some Members Oppose McNary
Measure on Which Presidents
Time to Act Expires Tomorrow.

Unless President Wilson should act
on the McNary bill providing for the
continuation of the sugar equaliza
ton board during the coming year
the measure will become law at
midnight tomorrow. as that will be
the tenth day since it passed the Con-
gress.
Reports that the members of the
board had notified the President that
they would resign if the measure was
signed were denied at the White
House today, although it is under
stood that Secretary Tumulty has re-
ceived letter from some of the board
saying they object to the bill as 1t
now stands Unless the McNary Dill
becomes a law, either with or with
out the Presidents signature, the
board will cease to exist with the
passing of the old year.
Members of the board have taken
the position that the McNary measure
does not give them power to controi
sugar in a way to prevent shortage
of that commodity. and that they oD-
ject to holding the position without tne
power ~.

statement to that effect was made
by Secretary Daniels today when
asked with regard to Admiral Deck
er's charge that he had been hampered
in his efforts to keep Spain from join
ing forces with the enemy by the
ambassador
Mr.. Daniels' Opinion of Decker.
Secretary Daniels said that Admiral
Decker undoubtedly had been honest,
sincere-and conscientious in his serv-
ices to his country, and there was no
doubt of his patriotism. but it ap-
peared that he had misconceived the
importance of his duties at Madrid,
and instead of being simply an as
sistant to the ambassador in his Off
cial duties, he seemed to have taken
the position that he himself was the
ambas ssador, :
1t was on that account, said Secre-
tary Daniels, ,Gtlaats he and Secretary
Lansing had agreed on the removal OF
Admiral Decker and his naval assist
ant. Commander Cusachs, from the
Madrid station. The Secretary said
that the transfer was made during
the progress of the war. but he didn't
recall the date.
Forgot He Was Not Ambassador.
"Although an able and diligent off,
cer," said Mr.. Daniels, Admiral Deck
er. while at Madrid, seems to have
forgotten that he was not the Ameri-
can ambassador, and. of course. the
Navy Department cannot usurp the
prerogatives of the State Department.
His removal, therefore, became i'm
perative.'
In his letter refusing the Navy
cross. Admiral Decker claimed that
the EFFECT of his work was to keep
Spain from entering the war. and also
to reduce the submarine activities off
the coast of Spain. He added that
his work was accomplished despite

The lifeboat crew of the Ingraham
