as we did when the polls closed last
November for the League of Nations
with the United States as a co-opera-

to maintain vital principle, even

than it is to surrender honor to ex-

THE spectacle of regarding the

Apparently the national administra-

WASHINGTON, Oct 10. - Recon-

the permanent relief of the employ
ment problem and the return of COM
merce and business to normal were
practically completed tonight by the
subcommittee of the unemployment
conference
Finishing touches are to be put on
the suggestion tomorrow and in the
afternoon a report is to be submit
ted to the conference in open session.
This report is expected to embody the
more important remedies suggested
by the committees and are said to be
comprehensive in their scope.
Hearings on government reclams-
tion work to aid in the unemployment
situation were held today by the COM
mittee on public works. E. F. Blaine
of Seattle, Wash, representing the
Western State Reclamation Associa-
tion, declared that a reasonable ap-
preparation by the federal government
to carry ON reclamation projects al
ready approved would give work TO
many thousands of men. He added
that his experience has shown that
only about 30 per cent of those out
of work really wanted it.
Preference for former service men
in reclamation employment was urg-
ed by r. C. Jones, junior vice COM
mander of the Veterans of Foreign
Wars, who declared these men had
been otherwise engaged in time OF
prosperity and were unable to save for
the rainy day.
Ottoman Hamerle. acting director OF
the reclamation service, said thai s15.-

during the winter on irrigation pro-

to 10000 men directly, and that If a

Il have talked with those most re-
sponsible for and concerned in the
conference" he added. Il have had
full understanding and discussion.
The fears expressed are not shared

Senator Lodge, Republican leader,
was among those who raised the ques-
tion of the armament conference. He
admitted that the United States had
the legal right to pass the bill, but
said there were potent reasons"
against action at present, in view of
the coming conference.
Arbitration was urged by Senators
Lodge, Stirling, South Dakota, and
others.
Senator Ashurst, Democrat, AriZO-
ma, suggested an amendment to make
the bill clear that the tolls exemption
should be confined to American yes
sells engaged. exclusively" in coast
wise trade, but did not offer it.
Senator Ashurst urged Democrats
to"keep the pledge" of the Baltimore
Democratic convention, which favored
free tolls. Senator Pomerene, Demo-
crat, Ohio, declared that the Borah
bill would barter away the honor of
the country for D ship subsidy
The subsidy question would be
brought up later. Senator Borah de-
clared, stating he would advocate reg
ulation of a tolls subsidy by the inter
state commerce commission, CT some
other tribunal Similar regulation
also was urged by Senator Cummins,
Republican, Iowa, chairman of the in
terstate commerce committee.

REDWOOD CITY. Cal. Oct. 10. =
William A. Hightower was the Srst
witness in his own defense today in
his trial on charges of numbering the
Rev. Patrick E.Heslin, a Catholic
priest. Hightower denied all know
ledge of the manner in which the
priest met death and declared he had
never seen the cleric until his body
was recovered from a shallow grave
in the sand at Salada Beach, to which
the accused man led police and news
paper men.
Much of Hightower's testimony had
to do with Doris Shirley Putnam. with
whom he swore he had spent all of
the night on which the priest disap-
appeared. He declared, however, that
he did not blame the woman for de.
nying that he had been with her, as
she formerly had been in trouble with
