Deadlock in Congress
On Naval Bill Feared

WASHINGTON, June 9.---Senate and
House conferees on the naval appropria-
tion bill were reported to-day virtually
at an impasse over Senate increases ag
gregating about S98,000,000. House
conferees refused to agree to any i'm
portant appropriation increases as pro-
posed in Senate amendments
Another wide divergence reported
was on the Senate proposal for an en-
listed personnel Of 100000 men and the
House proposal for 100000 men.
Although the conferences were begun
only yesterday predictions were made
freely to-day that there was prospect
of deadlock. Whether President Hard
ing's intervention as an arbiter would
be sought was not indicated. The Sem
ate managers were said to be standing
for broader and more speedy pro-
gram of battleship building than the
House managers. The latter, it was
said, took the ground that.Iess money
would be needed because of reductions
in wages and material prices.
