Harding Will Push Disarma-

German Menace No Longer Re-
quires Big Navy-Sims.

Washington, Feb. 4.-President-
elect Harding will call disarmament
conference, Chairman Butler of the
house naval affairs committee, said
today during the testimony of Rear
Admiral Sims on naval armament re-
ductions.
II do know that the nations will be
invited to disarmament conference
said Butler. who has conferred with
Harding.
The statement came in the midst of
Sims's statement that with the men
ace of German militarism gone, the
necessity for maintaining huge navies
no longer exists.
The admiralty did not favor COM
plete disarmament but said that the
navies of the world could well be cut
in half. But 1t is well to keep a gun
in the house, he said, urging a contin-
uance of the 1916 naval building pro-
gram.
There is no longer a necessity for
the British fleet of its present size.
because the nation entered into a
competitive building program with
Germany" said Sims.
''The countries would welcome an
invitation to a disarmament confer
ence and I believe some agreement
would come out of it."

ASKS CHANGE IN SCHOOL LAW
Representative Greenleaf Urges Ap-

Representative GreenIeaf Urges APP
pointment of State Code Commission.
Appointment of a state school code
commission to codify the school laws
of the state-and make recommenda-
tions for changes in overlapping work
and duties was urged in the house to-
day by Representative Greenleaf- He
introduced a joint resolution covering
his plan. He also presented a bill pro-
viding for a $4,000 appropriation for
the commission.
Under the Greenleaf plan a COM
mission of seven members would be
named to work out a plan. Their pro-
posals would be submitted to the leg
islature in 1928.
Greenleaf proposes that the COM
mission meet in the governors office
the first Monday in May, this year. to
devise plans for their work. Mem
bers of the commission would receive
SIS a day and actual expenses during
the time of their service. Persons
now on the state pay roll who might
be named would receive only actual
and necessary expenses. The resolu-
ton was offered in an effort to har-
monize the big row in state school cir
cles. In this row Miss Lorraine e.
Wooster, state superintendent. is on
one side, with a majority of the big
state educators lined up in opposition.

territories is optimistic. The worst OF
the depression is past, they said.
Just at present there is much un-

the slowing down of industry, but there
has been some improvement in the
textile trade and lighter manufactur-
ing" Governor Sproul. of Pennsyl-
vania, declared. Il do not expect the
depression to continue and feel that
within the next few months we will be

THEY SLIPPED ONE OVER
Backers of Fordney Tariff Act Caught
Opponents Mapping.

Washington, Feb. 4.-Senators IA
voring the emergency tariff bill caught
its opponents mapping today and got
two amendments adopted before its
opponents discovered what was afoot.
One amendment increased the house
provisions for a so cent tariff on
wheat to 40 cents a bushel, and the
other related to rice.
The rice amendment adopted is a
technical one relating to use of cleaned
rice in canning.
The amendments were adopted with
only nine senators in the chamber.
The senate met an hour earlier than
usual and after a minor bill had been
disposed of, the tariff bill was taken
up.
When Senator Harrison, Mississippi,
woke up to what had happened, he
baked further action by calling for a
quorum.
Another attempt may be made to-
day to reach an agreement to vote
either February 5 or Is. John Sharp
Williams. however, said he has not
changed his mind about blocking an
agreement. Other senator's predicted
Williams would be placated before
long.
By a vote of 38 to 2S. the senate
late this afternoon voted to reconsider
the wheat amendment which was
passed in the morning with only a
few members present. The motion to
reconsider was made by Senator Nc
Cumber. The vote was not taken un-
til after a lengthy debate touching
all phases of the bill.

Berlin, Feb. 4.-Germany was des-

in opposition to paying the s55.0OO,-

they have not been since the early
days of the war, the nation was ready
to take reckless action.
Under consideration were plans for:
An alliance with the Russian soviets;
a throwing up of hands. bidding the
allies to do what they will, and a
strong effort to convince the allies
that the reparations demanded will
wreck the country, thereby damaging
the allies.

BANK Is. CLOSED
Farmers State at LeIoup Al
fected by Pettyjohn Difficulty.
Holds $4,000 Worth of Olathe
Firms Securities.

The first Kansas bank to be affected
by the difficulties of the Pettyjohn
company at Olathe, was the Farmers
State bank at Leloup, Kan, the doors
of whichm were this morning closed by
Russell Howard, of the state bank
commissioners department, because
the bank had $4,000 worth of notes
endorsed by the Pettyjohn firm.
The present value of the paper held
by the bank. is problematical, it was
said at the state bank commissioner S
office this morning. The Pettyjohn en-
dorsement having been completely dis
regarded, the value depends on the
power of the original signers of the
notes, to pay, according to the bank
commissioners office.
The banks capital stock amounts to
$4,000, and the surplus to $1,000.
F. c. Waldron is cashier. c. F. Petty
john is president.
There will probably be appointed a
receiver for the bank, it was said at
the state house this morning. At the
present time Russell Howard is in
charge of the institution.
