Antis in Congress May Delay
Placing of Anthony Statue

From The TrtoIne's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, Feb. 8.--A "hang-
over" of anti suffrage sentiment in the
Joint library committee of Congress,
whose members were listed among the
most bitter opponents of the suffrage
amendment before it's addition to the
Constitution, may prevent the placing
of the Susan B. Anthony memorial
statue in the Capitol on February 15
This committee must take the formal
action approving the presentation, but
with only one week before the date set
for the ceremonies and installation of
the memorial nothing has been forth
coming, despite the efforts of Senator
Brandegee, chairman of the joint COM
mittee.
Until to-day suffrage leaders were
confident that there would be no hitch
in the elaborate plans they have made
in honor of the pioneer suffragist.
They say that this is the first time
opposition to the acceptance of statue
has been voiced. Stirred by the COM
mittee's inaction, Miss Alice Paul,
chairman of the National Women's
party. issued tonight q statement de-
New-York tribune., 1921-02-09

manding in behalf of the thirty-siz
organizations representing more than
100000 women, which are to partici.
pate in the ceremonies, that they be
allowed to present their statue to the
government.
The anti-srffrage opposition in the
committee, which threatens to over
turn the plans OF the suffrage leaders
was declared by Miss Paul to be the
"filibustering one of referring the mat
ter to the Fine Arts Commission, which
has no jurisdiction over the acceptance
of the statue"
"The enfranchisement of one-half of
the people of this country is an event
worthy of national commemoration, .
she continued. "It is time that victory
be accepted, that the bitterness of op-
position to women's freedom end and
that they be allowed to honor duly
the early leaders who made that free
dom possible"
The statue, which includes portrait
busts of the three suffrage pioneers
Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady
Stanton and Lucretia Mott, is the work
of thirty years by the sculptress. Mrs
Adelaide Johnson.

From The Tribune's Washington Bureos
WASHINGTON, Feb. 8.-With but q
single dis1 sing vote the Senate
Naval Affairs Committee to- lay or
dered an adverse report on the Borah
resolution to suspend the naval build
ing program for six mont IS in order
to ascertain what constitutes a modern
fighting navy.
The committee voted overwhelming
ly in favor Of no interruption of naval
construction and also in favor Of the
recommendations of the General Board
with respect to capital ships.
The fact that the committee stood
by the great battleship and refused to
take the position that it is obsolete is
of the utmost significance. 1t means
that in all probability Congress will,
proceed to vote money from time to
time for the completion of the 1915
naval program.
Senator King, of Utah, Democrat,
tn, only member Of the committee to
vote in favor of the Borah resolution,
wi: file minority report.
Senator Poindexter, of Washington,
as chairman of subcommittee to
which, the Borah resolution was re-
ferred, is preparing the majority re-
pert. The text will be completed to-
morrow. 1t embodies the views of the
General Board and upholds the stand
taken by Admiral R. E. Coontz, chief
Of naval operations, and Rear Admiral
Taylor, chief Of construction.
The committee to-day had before it
in executive session all the members
OF the General Board except Admiral
Sims, who Is ex officio a member

Committee Rejects Borah Plan
To Halt Warship Construction

Rear Admiral Charles J. Badger, the
chief spokesman, strongly opposed sus-
pension of the building program and
ccntroverted the theory that the capi-
tai ship is obsolete.
The Senate Naval Affairs Committee
held hearings behind closed doors at
the instance of Senator Borah, who
wanted the committee to get the views
OF naval officials on the capital ship,
and whether it was not made virtually
obsolete by the development of the
submarine and aircraft. Senator
Borah, prior to that, put into the rec
ord in the Senate argument, largely
from British naval officials, that cap
ital ships were obsolete or obsolescent
and that the wars of the future at sea
would be won by submarines or air
craft
The report of the committee will not
be unfriendly TO aircraft or submarines,
it is understood. The committee favors
construction of airplane carriers, as
recommended by the General Board.
Senator Gerry of the Naval Committee
has already proposed an amendment to
the naval bill calling for four airplane
, carriers at cost of $24,600,000 each.
Whether this will be added to the naval
bill is uncertain, but there is little
doubt some provision will be made for
airplane carriers.
The action of the committee to-day
is unquestionably big victory for the
proponents of the capital ship and the
supporters of the present naval pro-
gram. However, it will not end the
Senate controversy. When the naval
bill comes up there promises TO be a
sharp revival of the discussion Of what
really constitutes q modern and up-to-
date navy.

By Carter Field

WASHINGTON, Feb. S.-A drive to
elect Representative Homer P. Snyder,
of Little Falls, N. Y, Speaker Of the
House of Representatives for the next
Congress was opened to-day by group
of members of the House.
The dissatisfaction which eliminated
in a delegation waiting on Mr.. Snyder
to-day is very widespread and affects
many prominent members of the House
who are not willing to go to the length
Of opposing Speaker Gillett for re-
election. Mr.. Snyder told those urging
the idea of running for Speaker had not
occurred to him. He gave them no as
surance one way or the other, but they
Immediately began active work to win
recruits for their program.
There is general complaint in the
House over the way the new rules and
the present leadership are working
out. There is no Capitalization of au-
thority. No one is responsible when
anything goes wrong, and no one seems
to have any idea of what is going to
happen on any particular piece of
legislation.
Cannon Predicts Reaction
Uncle Joe Cannon, whose dethrona-
ment as czar of the House attracted
nationwide attention, was quoted to-
day as confident that the situation
would result eventually in a return to
the old one-man control, which was so
bitterly attacked when he was stripped
of his power. Men agreed with this
sentiment to-day who had fought
vigorously at the time to defeat Can
non and Cannonism. This is an illus
tration of the confidence that the pres
ent system is pretty sure to be
changed.
More important iii this connection is
the fact that many prominent Republi-
can leaders who voted for the present
rules now believe they will have to be
revised SO as to give more power to a
smaller group.
AS is generally the case, the bitter
ness against the present system grows
out OF the pruning OF personal power

Britsfn May Yield Mastery

WASHINGTON, Feb. s.-Cables an
nouncing that Sir Auckland Geddes Is
returning to Washington with full
powers to press forward proposals for
a world conference on disarmament
were received with great interest here
tonight, especially in view of the un-
derstanding here as to what the Brit
ish government is willing to do along
this line.
Very clear intimations that Britain
was willing to surrender her position
as mistress of the seas and TO conform
her building program SO that tie sea
power of Britain would precisely equal
that of the United States, have been
given Republican lenders here, as has
been told in The Tribune's Washington
dispatches. 1t was stated that Britain
was not willing for the United States
navy TO surpass her own, but was will
ing Tor it to equal it.
1t IS known here that the Ltovd
George administration is desperately
anxious to curtail governmental ex-
penditures in every possible direction,
believing that the British taxnavers
are pretty nearly loaded to the limit
without any further substantial in
creases.
So true is this believed to be here.
especially in Senatorial circles, that
seVeral prominent Republican Senators
have characterized the who 'e disarm
ament movement as British props-
ganaa." Indeed, Senator Borah, who
introduced the disarmament resolution
which brought discussion to a head.
has been twitted on the subject In view
of his violent anti-British slant.

Geddes, British Ambassador to the
United States, certainly has not given
the government very optimistic view
of Americas attitude toward the pro-
posed cancellation of the Allied debt
to the United States.
Despite the comment of j. Austen
Chamberlain, Chancellor of the Ex-
1chequex, that ii would be beneath
Great Britain's dignity to suggest g
second time the cancellation of the
debt, that suggestion will be made In
many quarters, it is understood, even
if not officially.
The important fact in the situation
now is that Great Britain will work
on the assumption that the debt must
be paid, and this means that this
country will lose no opportunity to
improve her trade relations.
The British are thinking of this in
connection with the forthcoming con-
ference with the Germans on the war
bill. If they are going to have 70 pay
S4,277 100000, its debt to the United
States, the general opinion is that they
must make the best deal they can in
Europe and then go to work to raise
the money.
The reparations account, IS drawn up
in Paris, sounds fairly good, but it will
not foot the American bill by few
millions. The British government Is
considering this whole question with
reference to the Anglo-American situs-
ton, which is regarded as none too
happy at best and which certainly has
not been improved by Chamberlain's
speech at Birmingham.
Chalmers Coming in March
Nobody on this side o. the water is
Understanding Anne ica's ability to
drive a bargain. Despite the plea Of
such newspapers as The Evening Star
that the cancellation Of the debt would
have an enormously beneficial effect,
the governments policy is based on no
such assumption.
Lord Chalmers, representing this
British Treasury, will go to the United
States at the end of March, and will
have q much modified proposition to
make to the new Administration in
Washington.
In this situation it is reasonable to
expect that Great Britain will hold to
her policy of pushing trade with Rus
sia, her greatest debtor, and with Ger
many, her largest buyer.

Washington Believes That

LONDON, Feb (By The Assa-

des, the British Ambassador to the
United States, is returning to Wash
ington armed with full power to
press proposals for world confer
ence on disarmament, according to
reports published in the afternoon
papers.
It is declared that this was one OF
the most important questions the
Ambassador discussed with the
Prime Minister.
John W. Davis, the American Am
bassador to the Court of st. James's,
who has asked President-elect Har-
ding to relieve him Immediately
after the latter's inauguration, and
who has arranged to sail for the
United States on March 5, had
long conversation this morning with
Sir Auckland regarding Anglo
American relations.
All Issues in Abeyancs
AS far as the London Embassy 10
concerned, however, all questions be-
tween the United States and Great
Britain are in allegiance pending the
inauguration of Mr.. Harding.
