Failure to Check by Agree.
ment Means New Naval Pro-
gram for United States
Notice Comes with Reporting
of Big Naval Appropriation
Bill-Want Harding to Par
ley with Powers

Washington. Dec. 13-(By A. P)
Blunt notice that the United States
cannot avoid new naval program
in swift cruisers and feet submar-
ines unless treaty limitations are cx-
tended to such craft, was served by
the House appropriations committee
today in reporting the $293,SO6.53S
naval appropriation bill. 4 six-line
provision placed in the bill by the
committee requested President Hard
ing to negotiate with Great Britain.
France, Japan and Italy for such
an extension of the treaty, limita-
ton of aircraft TO be included
The committee report said large
cruiser and submarine programs were
planned abroad, adding:
I'm other words, competition is on
again in the single direction to which
the unratiticd agreement (the Wash
ington naval treaty. does not extend,
and if it be allowed to so on I'M
checked, the purse strings again
must be relaxed and this govern
ment. like all others, will be con-
strained to launch a new program to
the extent necessary to keep us at
least abreast of any of the other
powers"
President Harding was not criti-
ciZed by the committee with rela
ton to its limitation conference re-
quest. The project for negotiations
apparently came as a surprise even
to naval officials.
1t was originated by Chairman
Kelley, of the naval appropriations
sub committee.
The chief reason prompting Mr..
Kelley to propose a new naval con-
ference was understood to have the
light cruiser program recommended
by the naval general board.
Administration officials who were
closest to the Washington arms con-
ference deliberations expressed the
view tonight that there appeared
little likelihood of success for new
negotiations to limit in accordance
with the "5-5-3" or some other ra-
tic the size of cruiser and submar-
inc fleets. The conference, it was
pointed out, in prolonged discussions
had found no basis of agreement pos
sible on these points or as to fight
ing aircraft. The French position

Hungarian duels were more deadly
Hungary would soon be deprived Of
political leaders, for the controversy
in stha Hungarian national assembly
has become SO bitter as to cause an
epidemic Of duels. The parliament
building on the Danube has been the
scene of exciting events in the course

than the fight between the legitimists,
who want King Charles Of Hapsburg

Battle Royal in Assembly.
One uproar in the national assem-
bly, ended in a battle royal. In the
course of which CASTOR Gaal. presi-
dent Of the assembly, told the Hun
garian aristocrats that they should
follow the example of the booted
farmer senators and conduct them
selves with more decorum. To en-
phasize his remarks, Herr Gaai de-
scended to the floor, thus causing
free for all mixup. Senator Eenitsky,
when floored, by Senator Gombos fist.
drew a revolver to defend himself.
Benitsky is a big man and the head
Of the Society for, Awakening Hun

parliament hall has for fight is the
number Of ink wells and excellent
boxes for the spectators.
Later, President Cool and Senator
Benitsky met to continue their scrap
with sabers. and Benitsky received
a cut III one of his thumbs. Previ-
