HOOVER Will

To Continue Sessions
AT Capitol AS Done
Heretofore

MIAMI BEACH, Fla, Feb. S.--tP-
President-elect Hoover, after enter
inr the White House. will continue
the semi-weekly conferences with
newspaper correspondents inaugur-
ated BY President Harding and car
ried forward by President Coolidge.
Since his election Mr.. Hoover has
had but few meetings with h large
staff Of correspondents assigned 20
report his activities. and this hs1
given rise to conjecture as to whether
NJ might adopt some other system
than that in vogue for stating his
views to the country on public ques-
tions.
From the beginning OF his cam
paign for the presidency the next
chief executive decreed that any
statement he might make for publica-
tion would be in writing 20 that there
could be no misunderstanding and he
has followed that plan since Novem-
Der =. Aside from his speeches on
his Latin American good will tour, he
has made only n few public Htate-
mcnts and most Of them have been in
writing.

BRITAIN PLANS
TWO CRUISERS
Action Seen AS Reply
To Passing of Is
Ship Act in u. S.

LONDON, Feb. s.-F1-Prospec-
tive American cruiser construction IS
seen in some quarters as the back
ground for the statement OF w. =.
Bridreman, first lord of the admiral
~, yesterday that arrangements Tor
construction of two new British
cruisers were preceding.
IL is said that if there was a tus-
sic between the treasury and the
admiralty over the question Of build
ing two cruisers this spring, the ad-
mirality seems to have won.
Building will go forward, mr.
Bridgeman's statement II interpret
ed, according to the schedule laid
down by the Macdonald government
In 1924. That is, one cruiser will be
laid down this month, and one In
March.
British newspapers today printed
the account OF the question in tbs
house Of which elected Mr.
Bridgeman's statement and his re-
ply without comment. In certain 20
litlcal quarters, however, it was said
Mr.. Bridgeman and the admiralty
staff had been strengthened in their
argument against the t~reasury's plea
for economy by the action Of the
United States senate on the cruiser
bill. Cabinet opinion is understood
to have been stiffened also.
The entire affair follows reports
in London papers three days age
that the cruiser construction here
was 70 be abandoned, partly as a ges-
ture toward disarmament ard partly
in difference to a treasury desire for
economy.

DAY
TO Be ROUTINE
Fund Bills and Com
mittee Meetings on
Calendars

WASHINGTON, Feb. s.-P1-Con-
gresa today had before IL appropri-
alton bills and committee meetings.
most Of them routine.
Tn house faced the naval supply
bill again, and the senate the SAL
100000 war department appropriation
measure. Passage of the latter has
been expected for two days and today
was again in prospect, but some sup
p~orters Of the navy supply bill are In
no hurry to get that feasure through,
believing President Coolidge will
sign the cruiser bill before the week
Is out. In that event, Chairman
Britten Of the house naval affairs
committee, plans TO amend the navy
supply bill to provide funds 70 begin
work on some Of the ships called for
in the cruiser bill. The house, as was
expected, yesterday c~oncurred In the
senate amendments to the cruiser
bill.
FOR several years each congress
has had the problem Of what TO 90
with Muscle Shoals or its hands, ana
apparently this one will end with the
solution not yet in sight. Another
bill affecting Muscle Shoals, the mad
den measure, was voted down IN
committee yesterday.
Both houses are expected TO de-
vote most Of their time from now on
TO appropriation measures and when
these are disposed of, il is a question
whether much time will be left for
anything else. One supply bill a de-
ficiency measure, Is in danger OF not
passing ut all. There has been in
ability to agree on senate amend
ments added 70 the bill as passed by
the house. The fight revolves around
the $24 .0o0. 900 added for prohibition
enforcement.
Committee hearings early in the
week on Indian affairs caused come
lively hearings, rs did a row over
the Memphis postmastership but
there was not an Indian in sight on
today's congressional horizon. The
house appropriations committee had
the second deficiency bill UP and
ways and means had its hands full
with the tariff. judiciary and post
office had regular meetings scheduled
and the expenditures committee had
arranged to consider veterans af-
fair. On the senate side the oft recur-
ring problem az unemployment was
before the senate education and labor
committee.

n protest by John Francis Neylan,
ounsel Tor the Hearst newspaper or
gsnizati0n, which charged that the

the "so-ealled American Publishers
committee on cable and radio COM
munication represents the American
press or any considerable portion
thereof" and also denied that "the
alleged report Of the said Pierson of
January rs, 1929, Is a truthful or
correct report Of the proceedings Of
the so-cailed American Publishers'
committee"
The document further denies that
the proposed ALLEGATION was agreed
upon after an honest consideration

was arrived ut on a basis OF manip-
ulation and trickery without regard
for the rights Of the public or the
