MAY SEEK TO
STOP NAVY
CONSTRUCTION
Senators Likely to Revive
Plan to Have United
States Set an Example at
Conference.

Washington, Nov. 10.-The move
ment to suspend construction on
Americas gigantic naval program
as an example to other nations par
ticipating in the conference on the
limitation of armaments, was revlv-
ed in the Senate yesterday. There
is a possibility that President Hard
ing may order such suspension
without Congressional action. II he
does not, the question is likely to
precipitate a lively parliamentary
battle at the capital next week.
Senator Pomerene of Ohio, DEM
ocratic4 member of. the Foreign Re-
lations Committee, brought the naval
building suspension issue to the
fore by going to the White House
and comforting with President Hard
ling about it. The Ohio senator is
the author of a resolution intro
duced in the Senate on July z, 1921,
authorizing the president, in his dis
cretion, to delay for six months all
naval construction pending the out
come of negotiations for armament
reduction. The resolution was refer
red to the Naval Affairs Committee,
where it has remained ever since
without action.
Senator Pomerene told the pres
ident he hau no desire to embarrasq
the administration en- the eve of the
armament conference, but said he
thought steps should be taken at
once to order all work stopped on
the construction of American naval
vessels He declined to say what
Mr.. Harding's attitude was, but it
is reported that the president asked
time to consider the question fur
ther. 1t is expected that he will
confer with Secretary of the Navy
DENLY as to the advisability of such
a step.

CHICAGO GANG
LEADER GUILTY
OF CONSPIRACY
''Big Tim" Murphy, Former
State Representative, Inn
plicated in Plotting Big
Mail Robbery.

Chicago, Nov. 10.-"Big Tim
Murphy, union leader, former state
representative and alleged gunman
was found guilty yesterday by
jury in Judge Landis' court of plot
ting the $360,000 mail robbery
at Dearborn station last April. Vim
cenzo Cosmano, union president, and
protege of Murphy. Edward Geirum
alleged driver of the bandits car
and Paul Volanti, also were con
yicted.
Practically all the loot was recov-
cred by postal inspectors in a trunk
in the garret at the home of Muir
phys father-in law, who with sew
eral others is waiting trial.
Murphy, "back of the yards
product with spectacular career
in gang, union and political circles
was arrested with Cosmano and
several others last year charged
with the murder of Moss Enright
known as the "king of the gunmen. y
After several months in Jail they
were released when important wit
nesses could not be found.
Murphy was convicted on two
counts of conspiracy to rob the
mails Each count carries maxi
mum penalty of two years impris-
onment and $4,000 fine. Cosmano
and Geirum were found guilty on
the conspiracy charge also. A
charge of robbing the mails was not
sustained by the jury.
Murphy and Volanti were named
in the conviction on the charge of
knowingly possessing stolen govern
ment property. The punishment is
similarN to that of the conspiracy
charge.
Immediately after the jury had
returned it's verdict, attorneys for
the convicted men entered separate
motions for retrial All the de-
PENDANTS were allowed to leave the
courtroom on their present bonds
until next Monday when Judge Lam
dis will hear the motions.
Murphy said he was pleased with
the verdict, especially on escaping
conviction on the robbery charge.

Landis," Murphy said I'm not
much for squealing anyhow and /

MENTALLY
UNFIT SHOT
BY COMRADES
Says Representative john
son Discussing Charges
Against A. E. F.-Starts
New Sensation.

Washington, Nov 10.-Traitors
towards, enemy spies or those who
were mentally unfit for front-line
duty in the American Expeditionary
Forces in France were instantly
shot in some instances, Represen-
tatiye Johnson of South Dakota,
said in a speech in the House yes
terday.
Mr.. Johnson served during the
war in France as fighting man
and was wounded. He has since
served as chairman of one of the
subcommittee which Investigated
the conduct of the war. His state
ment caused considerable commotion
in the House.
He spoke primarily for the purpose
of denying Senator Watson's charges
that American soldiers We're execut-
ed without court-martial.
81 can say unreservedly that
know that no American soldier in
France was ever hanged upon a
scaffold without trial and convic-
tion by court-martial," said Mr..
Johnson "No American soldier was
ever shot in France unless at the
front in the face of the enemy and
actually fighting, and then by those
who were with him and knew him
to be a traitor Or coward or an
enemy spy!
although never in ny presence,
nevertheless, l believe | know that
traitors or towards or enemy spies
or those who were mentally unfit
for front line duty have been in
stantly shot. Only divine Provi-
dence can determine to what class
they belong"
"Does the gentleman mean to say
that under any circumstances where
men at the front line became rerang-
ed or something of. that sort they
were shot by their own men?" in
terrupted Representative Rayburn of
Texas
81 was trying to indicate to the
House in very careful language,
Mr. Johnson replied. that it seems
to be well understood among many
members Of the American Expedi-
tionary Forces that men who have
been mentally deranged as l say
and the divine Providence only
knoWs-men who may have been
traitors, who may have been cow
ards-nobody can tel,-were un-
doubtedly shot in the front line"
'By whom?" asked Representative
Montague of Virginia.
''By men of their own commands, y
answered Mr.. Johnson.
Representative Rayburn aud Rep
resentative Dyer declared that Mr..
Johnson's statements would disturb
the country as much, If not more,
than Senator Watson's charges. Rep
resentative Bulwinkle of North Car
.olina, an ex-service man, declared
he did not believe Mr.. Johnson's Is
assertions.

BANKERS TELL
OF SLUMP IN
The MARK
Report That Germany Is
Forcing Mark Down Is
Denied by Both German
and American Bankers.

New York, Nov SIS Germany
forcing the mark down artificially
with view to dodging her repara-
tions obligations?
This question, propounded in
France and America, is answered
with an emphatic negative by both
American and German bankers with
whom l have been in contact. They
say that the enormous purchases
of foreign currency Germany must
make to meet her reparations obli-
cations is the main cause for the
big slump in the mark the past
few months. They predict this
slump will continue so long as the
present reparations conditions are
maintained.
l presented the question to Di-
Deutsche Bank, Berlin, before leav-
ing Berlin. He answered quickly:
Zone ought not to consider the
German government foolish. 1t has
not the slightest interest in depress-
ing the mark. * From
Churchill's speech and Lilo y d
Georges dealings, it ought to be
clear to the whole world that re-
sponsible quarters in Germany and
the entente have gained the impress
sion that the whole reparations de-
mands, including the ultimatum, are
built on uncertain ground"
He pointed out that the govern
ment must pay vastly more for its
railroad and waterways material, for
wages and salaries under a falling
mark, and that a constant Geprecia-
tion makes it impossible to present
a real budget. Under such circum-
stances, he maintained, it could
scarcely be to the governments ad-
vantage to try artificial depression.
AS for playing into the hands of
Industry thereby, Mankiewitz observ-
ed: German prices are such that
nobody can compete with them now !;
industry doesn't need any such help
from the government. He shares the
view of other German bankers that
a different method of reparations
payments or periods must be devised.
American bankers, familiar with
the situation, also tell me that there
can be no talk of an artificial play.
Such thing would be. too risky,
they say, for it would lead to a
crash worse than the process of
meeting reparations. They agree
with Mankiewitz that readjust-
ment in the reparations matter
would strengthen the market and
tend to make Germany a less for
midable competitor on the world
market, where now she undersells
because of low exchange.
