Those German Bonds

TT SEEMS likely that wen the World War fought

On the other hand bankers and brokers who not in

WEAKENED NAVY
SCARE FOUNDED,
PRESIDENT ASSERTS

WASHINGTON, May 6.-Allega-
lions Of serious deterioration OF
American naval strength are re-
garded as generally unfounded by
President Coolidge.
The president has considered some
what extensively the question of
naval requirements in connection
with his recommendations to con-
gress for building new cruisers and
submarines and his Endorsement of
generous naval appropriations.
Through that study he has come to
the conclusion that there need be
no disturbance in the public mind
regarding the navy's comparative
strength.
New construction Of certain types
of vessels is recognized by the presl-
dent as vitality needed because OF
the limited period of usefulness Of
naval ships, due to depreciation and
changes in armament. Mr.. Coolidge,
however, feels that TIE situation is
no more alarming than at any other
period, inasmuch as the navy always
except in case TO war is in need OF
such requirements as are constantly
being made.

TAX BUREAU PROBE i
BODY IS AUTHORIZED
To EMPLOY COUNSEL

WASHINGTON, May THE sem
ate committee Investigating the in

thorized to employ special counsel
at the senates expense to conduct
the inquiry; q point from which
waves OF oratory have radlated since
the committee voted to permit Sena-
tor Couzens, Republican, Michigan.
to retain Francis p. Heney, OF Cali

own expense.
The move to place direction of
the inquiry in the hands of Mr..
Heney, suggested to Senator Cou-
zens, the committee prosecutor, by
Governor Pinchot, of Pennsylvania,
produced two resolutions. Senator
Watson, Republican, Indiana, chair
man of the committee, proposed to
end the inquiry, and Senator Jones,
Democrat, New Mexico, a member.
introduced the measure acted upon
Tuesday night formally authorizing
employment Of counsel. Both were
held up because Of the illness OF
Senator Couzens, but the Jones pro-
posal was taken up Tuesday, used
as the pivot for sweeping debate.
and then abruptly adopted seven
hours later.
Senator watson announced at the
outset that he did not intend to press
resolution nor further oppose con-
tinuation Of the inquiry.

VETOOF TAX BILL
IS PREDICTED BY
DAVID LAWRENCE
BY David Lawrence
Especial Leased Wire TO The Journal.)
(Copyright 1934)

NNopyflgHI, I9-4,J
WASHINGTON, May S.-Nothing
but vetoes lie ahead. President
Coolidge has let it be known that
certain bills pending in congress do
not meet with his approval, and the
only inference that can be drawn
now is that he will veto most o.
them.
The president sent for Senators
Lodge, Borah and Smoot Wednesday,.
He talked over with them the whole
legislative program and the ques.
ton of adjournment. The Democrats
in the last "a hours have indicated
a change of front-they no longer
feel that congress should be termi-
mated before the political conven-
tions. Their opportunities for at
tack and publicity and continued in
vestigation would be hampered, they
feel, by falling in line with the Re-
publican plan of adjournment. Also
there are too many bills in which
the insurgent Republicans and the
Democrats have united interest and
which the regular Republicans would
like to lose IN the shuttle.
The president plainly is dissatis-
fled with the tax bill in ITS present
shape. He hopes for change in
conference and will not announce an
intention to veto the bill in advance
of consideration of its merits after
it comes to him. But so many of the
features of the bill are obnoxious to
big business. particularly that which
makes income tax returns open to
public inspection. that a veto rapidly
is becoming probable.
When word. however, reaches the
senate that the lacking on of mis-
chievous provisions may bring
veto, the chances are they will be
eliminated as the senate collective
ly or individually would not take
the responsibility for defeating tax
revision. Some Republicans think
1t would not be a bad idea to carry
the issue to the country in the com
ing campaign, pointing out that the
Mellon plan is popular and that the
Democrats and insurgents would be
held to accountability for blocking
the plans.
Mr.. Coolidge's conferences with
senate leaders to point out the perils
of the legislative situation have be-
gun none too soon. The Republican
leadership has lost control of the
senate and the exercise of the veto
power alone, at this time, will affect
the insurgent Republican alliance
with the Democrats on specific is
