FIGHT ON NAVAL BILL CENTERS g.
FOR A DAY AROUND 5-5-3 RATIO
Three Speeches For And Four
Against Appropriation Bill
Take Up Entire Day
t7y The Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, April 10-The fight
on the naval appropriation bill began
in the house today with members in
sistinE that 1t did and that 1t did not
actually carry out the 5-6-3 ratio. as
fixed by treaty. All day this discussion
centerd around this one big question
in dispute.
Chairman Kelley, OF the su'bcommit-
te on appropriation which drafted the
measure and others, Including Repre-
sentative Mondell. Wyoming. the re-
publican leader, declared an enlisted
force OF $4,000 plus 1000 apprentice
seamen was adequate to maintain the
navy in accordance with the arms con-
ference rating. Others however, in
cfuding Representative Padgett. Ten
nessee, ranking democrat on the naval
committee which in former times pre-
pared the naval bills. asserted the fig
ures were so low as to destroy the ef-
ftcienoy Of the American navy and give
it a standing the same or lower than
that Of Japan.
In all there were seven speeches dur
ing the day, three for and four against
the measure. Representative Byrnes,
South Carolina, supported the commit
tee proposals, joining Chairman Kel-
ley and Mr.. Mondell in its defense. On
the other side, the speakers with Mr..
Padgett were Representative Tinkham-
Massachusetts; Husted, New York, and
Ware, Pennsylvania, all republican
members of the appropriations com
1ntttee, who signed minority report
urging q force of 10000 plus 5000, and
who declared the committee figures dis
rupted and ignored the treaty.

view of opening the way for possible
settlement of the nationwide sl1spen.
sion of work by coal miners, Attorney
General Daugherty arrived today un.
announced from Washington. After
a conference with Federal Judge A. B.
Anderson, he declared. he did not know
whether dismissal was possible or
practical at this time" of the tndict-
ments charging 225 coal operators,
union leaders and others with con-
spiracy to violate the Sherman anti
trust law.
In the conference, Mr.. Daugherty
discussed dismissal of the indictments,
which, 1t was said, would remove the
ground for the refusal of some opera
tors to continue interstate wage nego-
tiations with the union. Judge An
derson who declined to discuss what
transpired. was said to have refused
to approve dismissal
Further conference with the Off
cials here are on the Attorney Gem
erals program for tomorrow, and It
was learned. authoritatively that Mr..
Daugherty did not have any new pro-
ceedtngs to institute in tho court here
at this time. We did not meet with
President John L. Lewis, of the Uni
ted Mine Workers Of America, and
said that he did not seek any meeting
with miners officials.
After the conference with Judge
Anderson, Mr.. Daugherty asserted he
was seeking certain information"
bearing on the nationwide suspen-
sion of work, because, he said, "the
government is DESTROYS Of knowing all
it possibly can regarding the situa-
ton"

GENOA, April. 1o.-Premier LLOYD
George in his speech before the confer
ence, said!
."rb,. is the greatest gathering OF Eu-
ropean nations which has ever assembled
on this continent. and having regard Tor

I'VE meet on equal terms, provided we

here az belllgrents OF neutrals: we have
not come together as monarchtsts or
republicans or sovietists. We are as
senbled as the representatives OF all
the nations and peoples of Europe to seek
out In common the best methods for re-
storing the shattered prosperity of this
continent.
These conditions inviting the powers
were laid down at Cannes. They apply
10 all alike; they are the conditions which
heretofore have been accepted by all
civilized communities as the basis OF in
ternatonal good faith. l will summar-
ize them in two or three sentences.
Tho first is, when a country enters
into contractual obligations with another
country or its nationals for value receiv-
cd that contract cannot be repud!Rteo
whenever the country changes its gov
ernment without returning value. The
second is that no country can wage war
on the institutions Of another. The third
Is that Cue nation shall not engage In

tory OF another. The fourth is that the
nations OF one country shall be entitled
to impartial justice In the courts of an
other.
III any people reject these elementary
conditions of civilized intercourse be-
tween nations they cannot be expected
to be received into tho comfy Of nations.
Europe undoubtedly needs a common
effort to repair the devastation wrought
by the most destructive war ever waged
IN this world. That war came to an end
three years ago Europe, exhausted with

PHILADELPHIA. April 10.-Revenues
from the national prohibition act should
pay many times over the $40, 900, 900 ap-
propriated for the enforcement Of the
dry laws during the coming year. Pro-
hibition Commissioner Haynes declared
in an address tonight.
'Tt would be interesting to the people
to know he said, that If we were to
collect the fines. penalties and special
tax imposed upon violators of the law
in the first six months Of this admins
tration. they would more than pay two
and one half times the estimated cost
of enforcing the prohibition law for the
next year, These enormous figures do
not include nearly $s,000.0oo in bonds
that are being forfeited to the govern
ment OF 100000 that have been offer
ed in compromise by 81 OF the large
violators of the law, and do not include
the $6.000,O 900 in differential or prohibi-
tive tax that have been referred to pre-
viously.''
Mr.. Haynes declared that ten months
of renewed effort to restrict good liquor
into legitimate channels the result 'is
perhaps as nearly achievement as pos
sible."
Immediately preceding prohibition, he
stated, there was an annual consumption
in the country OF about 100, 1000, 900 gal
Ions of American made whiskey, while
during the year 1920 approximately 12,

STATUS OF RUSSIA IS ONE
OF SUPREME IMPORTANCE AT

Russian Soviet Foreign Minister His Country
Was Ready Support Any Proposal That Would Avoid
War or Tighten The Burden of Armament

George Chitcher1n, the Russian SOW
let foreign minister, In speaking eor his
delegation, announced their adherence
to the resolutions and then declared
that Russia was ready to support any
proposals that would avoid war or
tighten the burden Of armament.
M. Barthou immediately protested
and declared with some heat that
France would absolutely refuse to dis
cuss the question of disarmament at
this conference.
Mr.. Lloyd George hastened to inter-
vene. and in his contention that dsi :
armament could not be taken up. GER
tainly not before a peace basis has
ben reached at Genoa, he was support
ed by Senior Facta. Eventually the dis
cussfon on this point ceased, after NJ.
Chitcherin said the Russian delegation
would bow to the collective viii of the
conference.
The clash between the Russian and
French delegates disclosed the fact that
disarmament Is not on the agenda, and
that therefore this matter is not to be
taken up Tor consideration.
