BELFAST AWAITING
 KING AND QUEEN
City Is Beflagged for Com ing of Royalty to Open
 Parliament
By Associated Press

Belfast, June 21.-Belfast tonight is beflagged and festooned for the coming tomorrow of King George and Queen Mary, when the king will formally open the first session of the Parliament of Northern Ireland. This will be the first time that the mon archs have visited Ireland since they went to Dublin decade ago.
 The king has not been in Belfast since he came here 20 years ago as Duke of York
 Decorations are being displayed all along the royal route from Donegal quay to the city hall, where the par lament is to be opened, and thence to Ulster hall, where loyal addresses are to be presented: In the business district in Ballymacarrett street on ships in the harbor, on the docks of the big shipbuilding companies and, in fact. wherever Protestants pre- dominate.
 But in the Falls road, the Short strand, old Lodge road and other nationalist and Sim Fein quarters. there Is no bunting to break the rnonotony of the drab, gray bufld- ings. for the nationalists and sim Feiners are ignoring what is consid- cred by other parts of the populace as one of the greatest events in the history of their country.
 The greatest precautions have been taken to insure the safety of the royal visitors all along the route over which they will pass, which will be lined by at least 4,oo0 troops standing shoulder to shoulder with beyonetted rifles at present arms. The troops will be reinforced by some 1000 members of the Royal Irish constabulary.

 The striking phase of the repuol- can or administration surrender in- wolves the Borah amendment In the Senate the administration forces op- posed this amendment until 1t was seen that the democrats would supp port it and thus make its passage certain. Then the republicans sur rendered and voted unanimously for the amendment.
 Instructs Conference Call The Borah amendment practically instructs the President to call con- ference of the naval powers of the world to consider disarmament. The House planned to substitute the Por- ter amendment which expressed agreement with the Presidents in tention to call conference of all the nations of the world to consider disarmament.
 The democrats stood for the Borah amendment. One hundred republicans of the House stood with them. It was certain that the House would vote on the Borah amendment and adopt it. Therefore the republicans of the House. like the republicans of the Senate, deemed Is wiser to sur render than suffer crushing de- feat
 The above deductions are drawn from the action of the conferees this afternoon. It is expected that to- morrow afternoon all the indications will be published as fact. The people of the country have called" the republicans.
 As result there will be disarma- ment conference, and the republicans win not be able to claim credit for the good results hereof.

Anchored in long arch that helf encircled the U-117 the bulk of the battleship force of the Atlantic fleet took station to give naval officers an opportunity to witness the unique demonstration. the most elaborate of the kind ever held Vice Admiral H.

 was much impressed with the result.
 Is Much Impressed
 ''The initial test was eminently satisfactory" said Representative Hicks, and the bombers showed sur prising accuracy. In my opinion If a n, odern battleship had been used as a target insetad of submarine It would have been seriously damaged.
 "Of course actual war conditions did not prevail today--the subma- r.ne was like a lion in cage and could not fight back--but these tests have impressed me more and more VI ith the ultimate dependency we riust place on air craft in naval waf- rare. am a great believer in per fecting the three e-plane navy--under water. over water ard surface craft, and when the navy bill conference report comes to the House Thursday | will offer an amendment for an air rlane carrier as the most essential slip we can add to our navy today"
 A chronological summary of the de- velopments of today shows that the first aerial division was sighted at 9:59; first salvo of three bombs dropped at t0:2S reaching target In elght seconds. second salvo of 12 bombs dropped at 10:S2: bow of U-11I CCmpletelyf SuDlnefEeu dt lV .oo, rOH- E.ng tower submer ged fifteen seconds later; entire vessel disappeared at 1C:3a.
 Two more of the former U-boats will be sunk by gun fire by Atlantic fleet destroyers tomorrow. The next of the bombing experiments will take place on June 2S when the airmen will be required to find the radio controlled battleship Iowa in the area between the Virginia and Delaware capes and bomb the vessel with dum- my bombs.

Decision Reached After Re- port of Students Strike"
 at PascagouIa, Miss.
By Associated Press

Washington, June 21.-Former serv- lee men, appearing before the Senate special committee Investigating government activities relating to them. or who furnish the committee information, will be protected from disciplinary measures by the govern. ment bureaus. This decision was reached by the committee today after hearing the circumstances of a strike" of students at the training center at pascagoula, Miss, the com mittee voting to request the reinstate- ment of two students who had been dismissed and four who had been transferred because of their protest of unsanitary and other unsatisfac- tory conditions alleged to exist there.
 Senator Walsh democrat, Massa- chusetts, charged that the board of vocational education was attempting to "intimidate" students by dismiss ing those who made complaint. Sena- tor Sutherland of West Virginian, re- publican, chairman of the committee, expressed disapproval of the alleged disciplinary methods of the board. and Senator Pomerene. democrat, Ohio, criticised acts of the board. which he said were like executing a man and trying him afterwards"
 The decision of the committee was reached after telegrams and letters had been placed to show that dis cft1 11f hoH before committee consisting of II. M. Evans, public health service, and b. H. Hale, assistant superintendent of cooperation, had submitted re- port of their investigation of the charges made by the students.
 Problems Are Greater
 Director Uel w. LamKin of the federal board of vocational educa- ton, informed the committee tha- the problems presented at the train ing center school, where the students were mostly tubercular, were great CT than at colleges of corresponding size, due in part to restricted diet prescribed by physicians, rest re- quirements and housing conditions. The school at Pascagoula occupies portion of the plant of the Internatio- nal Shipbuilding company which, Mr. lJA nlNln dSSeTltu, CIdl Scd StuucHs' reasonable rent.
 Failure of the government depart ments to cooperate was attributed by MT. Evans as factir in the de- lay of the bureau of vocational edu- cation to equip the plant. He assert ed that for more than year he had been trying without success to ob- tain from the war department sur plus equipment needed at the schools. He said requests addressed to the Secretary of the Treasury also hau failed to bring results and that after much delay. supplies had to be pur- chased in the open market.
 Unless Congress grants relief, MT. Evans stated, tho board must prr~ chase between $2.000.000 and $S,0O0,- 900 of equipment, which the war de- partment can furnish from its sur plus, if authorized to do so. He ad- mitted that some of the charges made by the students were correct, but asserted that the dissatisfaction among certain students could be at tributed to the activities of k. |. Luedtke, educational director at the school to prevent the bringing or whisky upon the reservation.
