AN AGREEMENT
 IS REACHED
Navy Enlisted Personnel To Be O6.OOO-- BOrah Amendment For Disarmament Conference to Re Voted on in House.

Washington, June ZZ.-An agree Lent upon 100000 men for the navy .rlisted personnel for the next fiscal l Lsar reduction of about 14,000 men, ras reached by Senate and House I0oferees today on the navy appro- kristion bill.
 Formal and final agreement on the l m was deferred until tomorrow but |he conferees said they had paved the kay for a complete agreement sub |et to approval by the House and Senate.
 A reduction of about $80,0O0,OOO in |he Senate bill and an increase of l bout S18,000,000 over the House bill kas said to have been virtually set 1 He'd. This would bring the total out |ay of the bill to about $414,OO0,0OO. The conferees also agreed to an en- listed personnel for the marine corps f 2l,OOO men, as compared to 24,O0O Imposed by the Senate and 18,OO0 by Ihe House.
 A compromise was also reached on Inc Senate amendment for two air blane carriers to cost $26,00O,00O each
 ith an initial appropriation of $15,- 100000. The conferees agreed to pro-
 ide for only one airplane carrier with
 n initial appropriation of $3,O0O, ,OO0. Controversy over Senate amend
 nents for new submarine, torpedo de- ttrOyer and aviation bases on the Pa tifc coast were not settled. Senate conferees said, however, |hey expected the House to accept provisions for some of the Pacific bases.
 The question of the personnel which
 ss settled today, was the chief Stumbling block to an agreement.
 The Senate voted for 100000 men, Fhile House conferees stood solidly behind the House provision for 10O,- f0O men.
 The Borah amendment requesting The president to call naval disarma- lhent conference of Great Britain,
 apan and the United States is not to
 e settled in conferences, but will be
 brought before the House for vote.
 ms stipulation was condition of
 ne relinquishment by the Senate con-
 erees of the large money increases Foted by the Senate.

POLICE LINES TO
 SAFEGUARD SIMS
More Precautions Taken Than When President Wilson Land ed-Admiral is Silent After His Recall.

Washington, June 22.-Rear Ad- miral Sims arrived in Washington late today from London to report to Secretary Denby for questioning re- garding his recent speech in which he was quoted as attacking sympathizers In this country of the Irish republic He was accompanied by Mrs. Sims and was met by few friends. There was no demonstration and only the usual incoming and outgoing crowds were at the station.
 Admiral Sims entered a waiting automobile and went directly to a hotel.
 The naval officer probably will see Secretary Denby tomorrow. From Washington he plans to go to New port, R. l., to resume his duties as president of the naval war college
 New York, June 22.-Rear Ad- miral Sims returned home today to explain to Secretary Denby remarks attributed to him in his recent London speech on Irish-Americans. Refusing to be taken ashore by a cutter, he came up the bay aboard the liner Olympic to meet friends or foes who might be awaiting him near the pier.
 Everything was peaceful when the veteran sea dog landed. A thousand bluecoats were massed on the dock to preserve order. Indeed they were so numerous that, with wharf work CTS and passengers, it would have been difficult for many other persons to have found foothold on the pier.
 Police lines were drawn several blocks north and south of the pier entrance. Not even when Woodrow Wilson returned from the peace con- ference were more thorough prepara- tions made.
 The admiral was the first person to step ashore. He entered an elevator few feet from the end of the gang plank and descended to the main floor of the pier, where he stepped into an automobile with Rear Admiral Huse, commandant of the third naval dis trict. Flanked by police, he rode away.
 From the handful of persons who had gathered there came neither cheers nor taunts. Among those who met the admiral was his brother.
 On the trip from quarantine, the admiral maintained strict silence, de- clining to make any statement before reporting to the secretary of the navy.

SCHOOL ATTENDANCE HAS RAPID GROWTH Committee Confronted With
 Housing Problems
 NEW YORK TOTS ARE HERE
Children Will Arrive This Afternoon Possible That Town May Have a Health Campaign-Items.

The increase in the number of pu- pills in the public schools of the town of Berlin has again become the main topic of conversation among the resi- dentss Where shall the children be put?' is the question which confronta the Berlin town school committee at the present time. In 1918 there was an average daily attendance of 671 children and in 1921 the average was 886 which is an increase of 33 per cent. The average registration in 1918 was FPS. In 1921 it was 1917, an increase of 33 per cent. In 1918, S25 different children attended the schools during the year. In 1921, there were 1172 children registered, which was an increase of 35 per cent. In 1922, the increase will undoubted- ly continue and the committee plans that accomodations r1ust be furnish ed for at least 60 more children. Many houses are beng built in Ken slngton and at the old Berlin fair grounds. This means a further in crease in school poF-Iiation for 1922.
 Superintendent Showalter has hous- ed the increas SC as best he can under the present circumstances. In East Berlin a fourth room was opened in 1920. This took care of the growth there, but meant crowding of tho classes for 1921. The eight grade was sent to thes Junior high school, thereby reducing the classes to the capacity of the rooh-s.
 In Becllley, the school has been overcrowded for 1921. This waa duo to the accession of 20 children who had attended the Smith school in New Britain For 1922, two teachers will have 88 children in seven different grades. It is claimed that it is inn possible to do the best work under such conditions. In this school there is but one home represented where the children hear the English lan- guagc spoken.
 At the Worthington school on Der lin street the fourth room win be opened this fall to care for the chil- iren from Christian Lane, who have been attending the Kensington school This will give each teacher an aver age of 36 children 70 teach, unless there are unforeseen accessions. This ia said to be the limit for effective work. Tn the Kensington district il has been necessary to reopen district

HUNDRED MILLION
DOLLAR WORKERS
COOPERATIVE BANK

Workers in a dozen American cities
and as many more farming communi-
ties are now organizing cooperative
banks 10 mobilize their own funds
under their own control Splendid
progress is reported in St Louis. Sc.
attic, Spokane, and Tucson. The Cali.
fornia oil Workers report that $50.
900 has already been raised toward a
workers cooperative bank at Coalinga.
Cooperative societies at Anchorage.
Alaska. San Rafael, California, and
Sparks, Nevada, are also forming
banks TO be owned and controlled by
cooperators The workers Of Penn
sylvana claim first honors in this
field for The Producers and Gonsum-
ers Cooperative Bank of America,
which they are esta blishing in Phila-
delphia. Although exact details have
not yet been made public. It is re-
ported that the bank will be organ.
lied in the form Of a trusteeship, with
a capitalization o. 800. 100000, diyid-
ed into five million $50 shares, to be
sold to union labor only. The details
for this bank are now being worked
ont by an Organization Committee Of
five prominent Pennsylvania labor
leaders, including President James II.
Maurer of the State Federation Of
Labor.
The organization of cooperative
banks by workers and farmers is be
ing fastened by the failure Of private
banks to use the workers deposits in
safe and helpful way. Did a private
bank ever loan money to workers
when on strike? Quite the contrary!
As Joseph Schlossberg, Secretary of
the Amalgamated Clothing Workers
stated at the first Annual Congress Of
the All American Cooperative Com
mission:
Every average workirgman has
some money in the bank. That money
is being used by other people 1t may
be used to finance and fight strikes,
II may be used in any way
that will bring in machinery through
which a fight against organized labor
might be carried on. 1t will not be
used for the welfare of labor until It
is under labor's own control"
The labor unions of Arizona have
just been hard hit by the failure of
several private banks in which they
had deposited all their funds Ii is
not the first experience of this kind.
Bank failures are usually caused by
the desire of bankers to make easy
money" and high interest on shady
Investments Cooperative banks are
not lured by this temptation, because
they exist for service rather than
for profit-making The Central Trades
Council OF Tucson, Arizona, IS organ
izing a cooperative workers bank
which will protect the funds Of organ
lied labor in that part of the state

cally no manual attention. Harold
