 Premier Says.

Toronto, Ont. Jan. 2& @ = Sir Richard 6quires, premier Of New foundland, disclosed today that me- gotiations arc under way for the eventual linking of Newfoundland to the rest of the world by cable or wireless telephone.
 As first step he said he has been in consultation with electrical engineers in Montreal and New York with a view to merging the four un- connected telephone systems in New foundland.
 Sir Richard said he also was en- deav0ring to negotiate trade and pos tai agreements with the Canadian government. but that his course has been made difficult by the criticisms in the Canadian press of the liberal party of Newfoundland. of which he is head.
 Newfoundland, he said, regards Canada ''as an entirely separate and competitive entity. politically as well as economically" and that criticism from Canada was resented as much "as the Americans or French would if Canadian newspaper took sides politically against the ruling power in American or French public life" :"

DEFICIENCY BILL
 IS IN CONFERENCE
Refunds lnd Prohibition TIo
 Chief Items Of Melsurt

Washington. Jan. 2t N-Carrying with 1t senate approval and senate amendments. the hrst deficisncy bill today was on its way to conferenes.
 Of the two principal amendments, one provided $2t.000.000 for prohi- bition enforcement: the other would make public hearings by treasury department committees en tax re- funds involving more than &lo.0oo.
 The fund to aid liquor law sn. forcement was voted Tuesday bat the tax refund amendment was not approved until late yesterday. only a short time before the senate roll call on the deficiency bill. It was 8 compromise from an amendment offered by Senator McKellar, of Tennessee. which would have taken the refund cases involving mors than tl0.000 from the bureau of internal revenue and would have turned them over to the board of tax appeals.
 Secretary Mellon opposed the s2l.- 000,0 addition for enforcement anu 1C "do ui0O A8dtlbL l1CEAoA16I first proposed amendment. In addi- ton number of the Tennesseean's colleagues disagreed with him. most of them declaring that 1t would put too much work on the board of tax appeals. McKellar then amended his proposal to maxe the tax refund hearings public and an agreement was quickly reached.
 System Scored
 Throughout the debate on tho or- iginal McKellar proposal there was criticism of the present system of tax refunding. Couxens of Michi- gan contended that the treasury should first assert tho claims. then make the testimony and documents in the case public and afterwards ask congress to appropriate the necessary funds.
 Senator Norris, of Nebraska, as- sailed what he termed the secret handling of tax cases. declaring 1t was detrimental to the public inter- est.
 If the amendments to the def- ciency bill are approved by the house, the measure goes to the presi- dent. He has not indicated hia atti-
