Voices. The first is the
voice of the community recit-
ing these urgent needs:

We need men to direct the

We need men to tell us the

New York University has re-

The question of defining the geograph-
ical scope Of the Pacific fortitcations
article was described in authoritative
circles to-day as largely a matter of
fnding the proper technical ter
minology to carry out decisions already
reached. A reply from Toxic now is
expected by the Japanese by Sunday
and they believe the tentative word
ing worked out by the "bg five viii
be accepted.
Originally the Notifications agree
mont provided that no island legiti-
matcly within the 'homeland" of the
United States or Japan should be af-
fected by the treaty, but that on all
other islands in the region of the Pa
cifc Notifications should be kept in
their present status. When they came
to details, however, the plenipoten-
tiaries found that the Bonn Islands
we're held by the Japanese to be a part
of the Japanese "homeland,' although
the Japanese had no objection to ex-
tending the "status quo" agreement 50
to include the BoniD group.

Scrapping Interests Experts

Although described by delegation
spokesman as representing no serious
divergence Of views, the discussions
over methods of scrappng have
aroused unusual interest among the
naval experts Of the conference. In
their subcommittee report the experts
recommended that permission be given
FOR conversion of prescribed warships
into other types OF craft. and they have
urged that the provision would repre-
sent a large financial saving because
Of the necessity of constructing new
vessels Of various classes IN the near
future.
Thus, none Of the five powers has at
present a modern airolane carrier, and
the ratio agreement permits them to
build from two to five each IF battle
ships partly complete, but falling out
side the list Of retained vessels, could
be rcmodclcd. into airplane carrier
types. it is argued, much Of the money
already spent on hulls could be saved.
Opposed to this is the view that to
convert discarded battleahips into an
other type of war vessel would not be
in accord with the anmating purpose
Of the Washington conference. This
position is understood 20 have been
taken in the big five" meetings by
Secretary Hughes. TO support it the
argument was made that as a matter
of policy the conference should give
d practical demonstration Of its desire
to reduce armament by specifying that
the surplus ships must be put out Of
business altogether.

GEORGE BLACK,

While the finance committee was

Sheriff Thomas II. Chandler visited
the Public Building and served them
with subpoenas in the mandamus
proceedings brought by the Volun-

Mayor Harvey and the remaining
six City Fathers will be served either
sometime today or tonight, when
Council meets in regular session.
Although the subpoenas call for
appearance in Superior Court at 1Ol
o'clock tomorrow morning. when the

TROUBLE
FOR BONUS BILL
Republicans Stall McCum-
ber's Loan Scheme to
Raise Money
SEEKS AID OF
SOME DEMOCRATS
WILLIAM j. LUTZ.

WASHINGTON. d. c.. May 25.-
Louis seibold in a special dispatch
to the New York Herald today. says:
For the first time in the legisla-
I've history OF the bonus raid on the
public Treasury. the promoters OF
that unpopular scheme were yester-
day forced squarely on the defensive.
The plan of Chairman McCumber
OF the Senate Finance Committee to
win the approval OF his Republican
associates for a bonus bill based on
a negotiable Insurance certificates
scheme adopted by the House failed
TO materialize.
The reason was that five Of the
ten Republican Senators, some OF
whom have favored the $1,000
100000 bonus loot until the recent
primaries. notified the Finance
Chairman that they would do every
thing in their power to block the
report OF his bill TO the Senate.
As a result OF their refusal. Mr..
who is counting heavily
on the political support of the Amer
can Legion officials. had to turn to
he six Democratic members OF his
FOR assistance. The meet
ng Of Republican Senators sched-
iled for yesterday was called Off.
There is no assurance that the
Democratic members OF the Finance
Committee will agree to provide Mr.
McCumber with the help ne needs
10 retrieve the bonus bill from the
nuddle in which fl is now involved.
The Democratic leaders will confer
lbout the matter today and decide
whether they will extend a helping
land to the Republican bonus Sen
ltors or permit the opposition TO
light It out without interference.
The inclination of Democratic Sen
ltors who favor the bonus is TO help
chairman McCumber for the sole
purpose Of putting the Republican
,arty in the hole" by making It
for additional burdens

Mr.. McCumber, who was quite /
onfident that his bill would be re-
