SENATE DEBATES
OVER SECRET Or
OPEN SESSIONS
Lodge Tells of Attitude He In
tends to Adopt in Disarma-
ment Conference.
WILL HOLD TO PRINCIPLE
GENERAL DISARMAMENT
Women Plead to President to
Appoint a Woman Delegate
to Be a Representative.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-THE ques-
ton of open or secret sessions at the
disarmament conference started a
senate debate today in which demo-
Gratis criticized some Of the steps taken
by the administration and Chairman
Lodge Of the foreign relations COM
mtttee who has been selected as one
of the American delegates, gave his
colleagues some glimpses Of the atti-
tude he intends to adopt in the con-
ference.
The outburst was short lived and
failed to develop any general express
sion of senate opinion on the subject
of public or closed sessions. Further
debate on the question was assured,
however, by presentation for future
consideration Of a measure which
would instruct the American dele
gates to insist that the conference sit
with open doors.
Senator Lodge did not express his
views in regard to publicity, but he
did assert that In the negotiations over
disarmament itself he would hold to
the principle that. the only solution
was a general disarmament"
He declared no one would work
more earnestly for disarmament than
he, but that he would hold to an un-
shaken continuation that to insure
success there must be general reduc-
tion all along the line.
Later in the day the foreign rela-
ttons chairman, speaking on a good
roads bill, asserted it was false econ
omy to save money for roads by tax
Ing 1t away from the army aud the
navy whose reduction, he asserted
had been carried too far already
under existing conditions. without
specific mention Of the disarmament
proposals he reaffir1ned his belief that
this country could not now make
further curtailments in its military
and naval establishments without
menacing national security.
While the senate debate was In
progress President Harding listened
to the plea of a group OF women po-
litical leaders that he appoint wo-
man on the American delegation to
the conference, and told them he was
confident a way would be found to
utilize woman's influence and intui-
tions to aid in the success of the ne
gotiations.
Before their interview with Mr.
Harding the women distributed Sc
ries Of statements assailing Represen-
tative Alice Robertson, Of Oklahoma,
for her declaration that it would be
difficult to find a woman qualified to
act as a delegate. In all of the state
ments It was asserted that Miss Rob
ertson could in no sense be regarded
as competent spokesman Of Amer
lean womahood.
The senate discussion Of disarma-
ment subjects was started by Senator
Harrison, democrat, of Mississippi,
when he introduced a proposal to bind
the American delegates TO demand

out right at home, instead of through
lengthy long distance correspondence.
At the same time the Squad will give
every veteran a chance to find out
whether he has a claim, and If he has
to file 1t for him so that he will get
immediate results.
Obviously the biggest problem in
the campaign is getting IN touch with
the veterans, particularly those who
live in outlying communities Many
are illiterate. More Of them never see
a newspaper. To overcome this diff
ficulty. the government, the Red Cross,
and the Legion have issued a joint
appeal to the press of South Carolina
ard to every patriotic organization in
the state to lend aid in seeing that
word of the coming of the Squad
reaches the ex-service men and in ex-
planning to them just what the com
ing of the Squad means to them per-
sonally.
Every arrangement has been made
to relieve veterans, who report to the
Squad every Inconvenience, delay, and
expense. AS soon as a disabled SOL
dier arrives at headquarters he win
be furnished with transportation back
home and meals and lodging az long
as his business lasts. It is particular
ly important that each ex-service man
bring his discharge and all papers
with him to headquarters. Mr. McCann
has been examiner in the Bureau #
War Risk Insurance at Washington
for some time and has handled more
than 10000 cases, ard can give them
expert advice in handling their claims.
