CONfEREES HIT SNAG
ON Big DRY FUND
$24,0 100000 Item Goes Back
to Senate for Further
Consideration

Washington, Feb. s @ - The
house and senate conferees on the
deficiency appropriation bill failed
to agree today on the senate amend
ment to provide $4,000. 900 for dry
law enforcement.
The $24.o00,000 item was placed
in the bill against the wishes Of Sec
retary Mellon, who argued that .
plan for expending 1t should first be
formulated. A move to have the
house vote directly upon it failed
several days ago.
After today's conference the SEN
ate conferees prepared to return the
item for the senate for consideration.
The majority Of the spokesmen for
the house refused to consider the
increase in funds for enforcement of
the dry law. The senate conferees
again demanded that the house be
given an opportunity to vote directly
en- the measure.
Chairman Warren, Of the senate
appropriations committee indicated
he might 60 before the senate again
to ask for new instructions but SEN
ate leaders doubted whether any
material change could be made in
the overwhelming vote by which
the increase was first ordered.
The bill in dispute also carries
&75,000,000 for tax refunds and
f2so.ooo for 4 presidential inquiry
into prohibition.

COOLIDGE PLANS NO
CRUISER BILL VETO
Inclusion of Time Clause
Not Likely to Hold
Up Measure

Washington, Feb. S @-Although
President Coolidge does not approve
Of the cruiser construction bill with
the time restriction clause included,
he does not wish to be understood ~
saying positively that he will veto

The president feels that had the
time clause been eliminated the
measure could have been passed by
the senate in a few hours, with the
result that by now the work Of MAX
ing appropriations for building the
ships would be we'll under way. The
time clause would stipulate that the
construction Of the fifteen cruisers
and one aircraft carrier be started
before July /. 1871.
