NAVAL LIMITATIONS
House Committee Asks President To
Have Smaller Types of War YES
sells Included in Treaty.

WASHINGTON, Dec. II ASSOCIATED
Press.) A request that President Harding
seek to broaden the scope of the naval
limitation agreeemnt, so as to include a
limitation on construction of smaller
types of war vessels and on military and
naval aircraft, is included in the annual
naval bill as reported yesterday by the
house appropriations committee.
The president would be asked to open
negotiations with Great BritainS France,
Italy and Japan for an agreement whIcn
would limit future building of all surface
and submersible types of war craft hay-
ing q tonnage of 10000 or less, and on
all classes of army and navy aircraft
In its reports the committee pointed
out that the arms conference did not limit
the number or types of smaller war YES
sells and added that -informa ton had
reached congress that already large pro-
grams are planned of vessels up to the
maximum size permitted under the agree
ment and that new and larger types of
sub-surface craft have begun to put in
an appearances
r "In other words. the report continued,
competition is on again in the single di-
rectIon 20 which the unratifed agreement
does not extend. and if it be allowed to
go on unchecked the purse strings again
must be relaxed and this government
like all others, win be constrained to
launch upon new program to the extent
necessary to keep US at least abreast of
any of the other powers.

and his administration advisers toward
the proposal, which was prepared by
REPRESENTATIVE Kelley. Republican. Michi-

pared the bill.
1t was pointed out, however, that an
attempt to limit smaller warcraft would
carry forward an unsuccessful effort
made by the American delegation in the
Washington conference. This effort pre-
cipitated one Of the bitterest debates of
the conference the French taking the
position that their national interests
