AUGMENTATION IF. SHIPS WILL AWAIT
 WORD 0F CONGRESS
Secretary Denby Not To Touch Appropriation Of
 Last Session

WASHINGTON. April 26.-Modern- ization of the older snips of the American fleet will await specific au- thority of Congress, Secretary Denby announced today, and the navy de- partment will abandon for the time being the program which it considers may have been approved under a misapprehension of the situation.
 The secretary's decision, which was said to have the approval of Presi- dent Harding, was regarded as clos ing the incident created through the protest of the British embassy against statements made before con- gressional committees when the de- partment was seeking appropriations for installing postwar improvements in the battleships. Navy officials then asserted that no criticism of the work could be made as contravening the five-power naval treaty since Great Britain had completed similar alterations. This was denied by the embassy.
 Refund Appropriation.
 As q result of today's decision the S6,500.000 appropriated by the last Congress for gun elevation will be left in the treasury and refunded at the end of the fiScal year as un- expended money"
 With official opinion in the navy holding unanimously that the mod ernization program is permissible un- der the treaty drawn up at the Washington arms conference and es- sential to the American naval stand ing, it was regarded as certain that the matter would be presented anew to Congress during the December ses- sion.

NEW YORK, April 26.-President Harding's world court argument that he will not enter the League of Ma tions by any door, may lead to serious complications in his cabinet.
 With Herbert Hoover and Secre- tary of State Hughes generally un- derstood to be league men, their aid in putting over the world court idea, originated by the league. may prove most embarrassing to the President in continuing his league 'verboten" policy.
 The first evidence of this came Thursday when Hoover was chal- lenged by Hamilton Holt, publicist and an outstanding league advocate. to state whether he was still loyal to the league or was 'subordinating his convictions to personal or party advantage.'
 Holt, in a letter to Hoover and to the press, demanded to know whether Hoover was heartily in sympathy with Harding's anti-league attitude and if so, whether he was not betraying the thousands of eIti- zens who backed him as prologue man in the 1920 presidential pri- maries.

Survey of Transportation In All Phases Will Be Made By National Institute.
 Inquiry Will Be Made
 On Impartial Basis

CHICAGO, April2s.-CBy Associated Press.)-A worldwide survey Of transportation in all phases was an nounced by the national transporta tion institute the organization of whicy Was completed here today. Tn .>nouncement said
 4fnes R. Howard is the president of the institute in charge of the work Edgar Clark, former chairman of the interstate commerce commission has been elected chairman of the re- search council and Congressman Syd- ney Anderson of Minnesota. vice chairman.
 The. institute starts today a com plete and impartial inquiry into every question in connection with transportation on railroads, inland waterways, lakes. highways and the sea. It will investigate all branches of transportation in the United States in relation to each other and to industry and commerce as a whole and will send representatives abroad to examine into transportation sys- tems of foreign nations. The insti tute will be financed by business in- terests throughout the country. La bor as well as capital, will have a voice Tn its councils.
 Recommended Fly Harding.
 The institute grew out of a recommendation y the agricultural conference called by President Hard ing in the early part of last year. This representative agricu ....al body arrived at the conclusion that the lack of prosperity suffered by the farmers was due In large measure to something wrong in the nation s transportation system. When it at tempted to learn what was the mat ter with transportation, 1t found that no adequate statistics ever had been collected. The conference reaom- mended that agricultural and indus trial interests loc,. hands In a move to get at the basic facts of the country's transportation. This reso- lution later was adopted by Congress- man Sidney Anderson's joint commits sion of agricultural inquiry.
 The result was the National Transportation Institute"
 "The institute has no connection with the government nor wi,h poli- tics.' said Mir. Howard. "It will not advocate or combat legislation. It's investigations will be absolutely non- partisan and disinterested, uncolored by theor..s or political doctorine and free from dictation by carriers or shippers. It's research work will be carried on through highly trained men. working scientifically to dis cover and formulate the basic facts of the whole transportation prob lem.
 The institute will be perma. mt. It will report to the American peo- pie. Its findings will be made known from time to time through the news papers and other channels as its re- suits are developed"

LACK OF BEDS CAUSE
 OF DISEASE SPREAD, DIRECTING NURSE SAYS
Cites Case Where Adequate Facilities Would Have
 Saved Family

Lack of beds and suitable provision for the care of tubercular patients in Jefferson county Is causing the dis ease to spread. was the opinion ex- pressed Thursday by Miss Bertha Clements. directing nurse of the tenn porary tuberculosis camp, which is to be supplemented by modern sana- torium following the completion of the campaign for $20.000 now being conducted in Birmingham.
 "A few days ago an elderly woman came to us and asked for two beds,'' Miss Clements said, "one. for her son and one for her daughter-in-law We gave them the last beds we had. ow- ing to the fact that the couple had two children in the early stages of tuberculosis, and we hoped to save the children by isolating them from the parents. If there had been a place to take the young man, who was only 23 years old. in the early stages of his infection, the whole family could have been saved. There are scores or similar cases in Jefferson county" Miss Clements declared.
