100000 Given Approval
of Senate

WASHINGTON. May 94.-The economy
drive against the 95.n00.000 naval ap-
propriation bill WAS shattered In the
senate today, when many increases re-
commended by the naval. committee
were adopted.

adopted 4 committee amendment. op-
posed vigorously by the economy forces.
providing for q personnel Of 10000 men

house. Afterward. In quick succession
and without demands from the economy
advocates for roll-Calls committee
amendments calling for increases ag-
yrcgaiing about s42.500,00g were ap-
proved.
The roll-call on the navy personnel
apparently broke the attack OF senators
who have been fighting to overturn the
increases recommended by thc naval
COMMITTEES. The way also was paved
for passage of the bill tomorrow or
Thursday, after prospective adoption OF
rho Iurah amendment fOr a disarma-
mcnt conference.
Party Lines Broken.
Party lines were broken IN the vote
OH fixing the navy personnel at l.0,OOV.
Thirteen. republicans voted TO hold the
personnel TO 100000. but the r"ss OF
these republicans 10 the committee pro-
visions was offset by fourteen demo-
Gratis who voted to keep 10000 men in
the navy.
Senator LenroOt. republican. wilson
sin, led the battle today against the
committee increases, and again warned
the republicans that the country Woulo
not stand for them. He Was joined by
Senator Hitchcock. democrat. Nebraska,
who announced that he would vote
against the bill if the committee IN
creases were substantially sustained.
Senator Swanson. Of Virginia. ranking
Democrat on the naval committee, now
ever, supported the committee program.
declaring that with the aviation and
other programs Of the navy 10000 men
we're needed.
Senator Underwood. Of Alabama. dem
ocra,Ic leader. who voted for tac l"U.-
o00 ncrsonnel, made 4 lengthy address

In attacking what he termed tho ex-
truyangcance'" Of the bill. Senator Len
root charged that press reports Pres-
ideut Hardings speeches yesterday re-
earding national defense had pecn dis
torted deliberately and inexcusably.'
He said that the president mad been
njsouoted with respect to his state
ment that the nation should be so SO
powerful in righteousness that none Will
dare &c invoke its wrath.
Senator Lcnroot, offered an amend
ment to prohibit further payment OF

publican. Washington. in charge or the
