Little Hope Seen
For Disarmament
Bill This Session
Senate Committee Adjourns
Without Action After APP
peal by Walsh, of Mon
tana. for His Resolution

r.., Thc Trsbusc'S Washington Bureau
: WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-Further con
.;asrstion was given to-day by the
c.rsts Foreign Relations Committee to
~. Rorah resolution for reduction Of
..rsl ornaments of the United States.
Y.nsn and Great Britain, and also to
,hs Walsh disarmament resolution
S.nator Walsh. of Montana. author OF
w. Walsh resolution. was heard and
ia committee adjourned without ac-
.,r. with the understanding that it
would take the question up again when
csIled by the chairman. Senator Lodge
T. chairman of the committee and he
ia absent from the city and slightly
;ndisposed because Of cold. He prob
ehly will return next week. but there
;s much uncertainty when the disarma-
n,eut question will be dealt with by
The committee and little expectation
AZ sny Senate action this session.
Senator Walsh argued at length for
his resolution. He said the world is
now spending for purposes of war
sbout SS.0O0,000,000 annually and has
100000 men under arms. If half the
sum were saved, Europe would have
abundant capital to restore itself. and
the release of a 100000 men would
solve her economic troubles and en-
hsnce her productive capacity.
Criticizes Borah Resolution
Further, Senator Walsh said that if
the present naval construction pro-
grams are continued, the United States
Navy will be as formidable as that of
Great Britain in 1924. The Borah res
olution. he declared, would operate to
postpone, if not indefinitely postpone,
The time when Great Britain will no
longer be mistress of the seas. This
vas true, said Senator Walsh, because
England has now a small building pro-
gram and ours is a large one, and re-
duction of so per cent in estimates. as
proposed in the Borah resolution,
would operate to prevent this country
sttaining the lead as soon as it would
otherwise.
Senator Walsh insisted it was un-
sound to argue that adoption of the
resolution and sending of a representa-
tive to meet with the disarmament
commission would involve this coun-
try in the affairs of the League of
Nations.
United States if it enter the leagu
oHOulu OulSi W tic llOul uOOI, no
the back"
In the course of the meeting it wa
euggestet the Walsh resolution an
the Borah resolution be combined and
passed. Senator Hitch ocs IS favo~
sble to this and the plan has other
support. 1t is based on the theor.
that, while this country sends a ren-
resentative to meet with the disarma
ment commission, it would MT be ir
consistent to take up navel reduction
with Japan and Great Britain.

A CLOSE CALL

Bus No. So, of the South Jersey
Transportation Company, had a Sc
rious breakdown on the evening of
independence Day. The bus was
loaded down with 40 passengers who
were returning home at half past
eleven from a pleasant day spent in
Wildwood. Just in front of the Rio
Grande residence of Jubel Smith the
right front axle, for no known cause
whatsoever, snapped, throwing the
truck to the right of the road, mar
rowly missing a large oak tree. The
sudden strain was too much for the
left axle and it also snapped.
Many of the passengers were stand
ing, due to the crowded condition of
the bus, when the accident occurred.
The car was travelling at 20 miles an
hour. The driver was steering with
n hand and making change with the
other. Curiously, no one was hurt
by the sudden crash. One woman was
slightly scratched. Mrs. Schambler,
of Sea Isle City, who has a weak heart,
tainted from the shock, and it took
nearly an hour to bring her back to
consciousness.

Mr.. Scarlet, the Wildwood agent of
the Wa-Wa Dairy Company, vas col
lecting bills at a house on Crocus road
between Pacific avenue and the rail-
road. Excuse me a minute" he said;
there goes my truck" Somehow the
vibrations of the engine had shaken
the brake loose and the truck had
taken matters into it's own hands and
started off down the road. 1t crossed
Pacific avenue and started full tilt for
the ocean. 1t would be in France by
this time if it hadn't met violently
with a telegraph pole. The pole was
on the right hand side of the street
and bare of wires. When the truck
hit it, it snapped off at a point about
seven feet from the ground. 1t also
broke a little below the ground level.
The truck? Oh, the truck is a bit
smashed about the front, but mechan-
les are quickly putting it to rights.

Electric Refrigeration.

A brine tank in place of ice. which
keeps mean temperature in the re-
frigerator, is growing in popularity in
suburban and country places where ice
is difficult to obtain. It's advantages
are that it does away with the iceman,
1t gives q dry temperature advanta-
geous for the preservation of food,
and there is no slime, dirt or drip as
with the use of ice 1t is arranged to
freeze a little ice for table use when
that is desired. 1t is not an inexpen-
sive luxury, costing about $4OO to i'm
