PORTER TO PUSH ACTION
ON DISARMlNG MONDAY
Republican House Leaders Decide
to Press Plan Despite Navy
Appropriation Bill.

Attempt will be made>on Monday tc
bring the disarmament resolution uI
for action in the House. according to
announcement made yesterday by
Chairman Porter OF the House COM
mittee on foreign affairs. author OF
the resolution.
Republican leaders in the House
Mr.. Porter said. have decided to press
for action on disarmament independ-
emily of the Navy appropriation bill
to which the Senate added the Borah
disarmament amendment. Deadlock
of House and Senate conferees over
the bill. with probability that it may
be some time before differences are
reconciled. prompted the move to
speed up independent action. he ex-
planned.
The proposal that will be brought
before the House is identical with
the one the House conferees sought to
substitute in the Navy bill for the
Borah amendment. Drafted by Mr.
Porter. it has been favorably reported
by the foreign affairs committee.
1t is broader in its provisions than
the Borah amendment. which suggests
to the President that Great Britain
and japan be invited to confer with
the United States regarding reduction
of naval strength
A two-thirds vote for suspension of
roll call will be needed Monday to put
through the resolution. There are
enough republicans and democrats in
favor Of disarmament, Mr.. Porter pre-
dicted, to insure it's passage.

NEW SHIP BOARD
| MEETS PRESIDENT
Thorough Discussion of Poll
cies. Takes Place at
Hours Conference.

The new Shipping Board. headed by
Chairman Lasker. conferred for an
hour yesterday with the President
There was said to have been a thor
oush discussion of preliminary poii-
cies to be inaugurated by the board
without any attempt TO take up de-
tails
The President was said to have
told board members that the admin
istration stood back of thc.n in the
task Of making the American mer-
chant marine efficient and was anX-
ious TO cooperate AS much as possible.
He asked board officials to clear the
decks OF war wreckaSe as soon as
possible and put the whole Shipping
Board establishment on a sound busi-
ness basis.
After the conference Chairman
Lasker outlined the Presidents policy
instructions as follows:
The President told us there was
nothing he wanted SO much when he
finished this term Of four years as to
be recorded the head Of the admins
traiion under which the American
merchant marine was re-established.
HE said he felt that this could not
be completely accomplished in two
years or even three or four years and
that the future had to be built solidiy
on the development of private initia-
tive and operation. but that we were
to dispose of the ships at the right
prices and not sacrifice them 10 bring
this abopk.
Correct Inventory Advised.
THE President advised the board to
get a correct inventory in order that
the board might show Congress the
true value of the feet today ana
thereafter to base operation on that
valuation. The President said that he
d esirtd to see American ships go TO
every port ultimately. but did not feel
that the ships should be operated AZ
ruinous losses to accomplish that end
He suggested to the board that
! thorough survey be made in that d.
rectiop.
Continuing. Mr. Lasker said the
President had told them that the
i shipping of the world was at the
lowest ebb in history in proportion
to the number of ships operating ana
that all business was sick. He in
. structed the board. the chairman
added to build up its business on q
broad policy not localized one.
The President told the board.
concluded the chairman. that while
he strongly believed that the ships
should he turned over to private
ownership as soon as possible at fair
prices, that il should only be done
, in communities prepared not only TO
operate the vessels, but to help de-
ve!op markets for the goods carried
in them"
