NEWS REVIEW OF
CURRENT EVENTS
London Naval Treaty Will
Be Dealt With by Senate
in Special Session.
BY EDWARD W. PlckARD

p ATIFICATION or rejection of the
Az London naval treaty will be ac-
complished by the senate in special
session, to be called by President
Hoover Immediately after the adjourn
ment of congress about June 10. This
was the plan decided upon by majority
leaders of the senate and house with
the approval Of the President. 1t was
considered best for congress to go
ahead with the business before 1t,
complete that and adjourn without
taking up the treaty. The house lead
ers said they were ready to set a date
for ending the session as soon as the
senate was prepared for such step.
Opposition to hasty action on the
treaty, by opponents of the pact, and
a desire on the part of members Of
the house to get through and go home
were two of the major reasons for
the decision reached. President
Hoover's announcement that he in
tended TO call special session, II
necessary, to insure early action on
the treaty was principal factor.
Senators Johnson Of California and
Hale of Maine, leaders of the oppo-
sition. were especially vehement in
their objections to what they called
an attempt to railroad the pact through
the senate by administration senators.
Under the program adopted, the tariff,
rivers and harbors, omnibus and vet
Grams bills will be acted on in the
senate before congress adjourns.
More members Of the navy general
board and other high officers of the
navy appeared before the senate COM
mittee on foreign relations and naval
affairs to tell why they consider the
London treaty dangerous for the
United States. Much of their testl-
mony was to the effect that it would
make it impossible for the navy to
protect this country's trade routes /;
there also was further criticism Of
the reduction in the number of large
cruisers for America and Of the in
creased ratio given Japan.

0DASSIvE" no longer describes the
L resistance of the Indian natives
to British rule. The rioting is increas-
ing daily and has developed into
bloody conflicts with the police and
the troops. What is worse, in the
eyes Of the British, is the fact that
the Moslems are joining their tradi-
tlonal enemies, the Hindus, in the cam
paign in some localities, though in
other places there have been sangui-
nary fights between natives Of the two
religions.
Worst of all the rioting, but not
directly connected with the Indian
campaign, was that in Rangoon. In
that capital city of Burma warfare
broke out between different bands Of

forcement bureau. Senator Sheppard
Of Texas, for instance, urged the early
enactment of legislation to make the
liquor buyer punishable under the dry
laws. Sheppard was co-author of the
Eighteenth amendment. Early in the
present session he introduced bill
to make the seller and purchaser of
Illicit liquor equally liable to punish
ment. Senator Jones Of Washington,
author Of the five and ten law" and
others opposed the views Of Sheppard.
The court, in an important test case
brought by the government, held that
congress not only deliberately and
designedly" exempted purchasers in
the Volstead act, but for ten years
'has significantly left the law In its
original FORM"
Enforcement bureau officials pointed
out that the decision was entirely in
accord with the policy the bureau had
followed.

nEBATE on the conference report
~ on the tariff bill was just getting
under way in the senate when some
one raised point of order which was
sustained by Vice President Curtis
and under which the measure was
sent back to conference. Consequent
ly final action on the bill was delayed
for at least one week.
The point Of order related to q
clause in the flexible provision per
uniting the tariff commission to make
effective changes in duties if the Pres.
ident failed either to approve or dis
approve recommendation for an in
crease or decrease within 60 days
Republican leaders were concerned
over the fact that several additional
points of order may be made relating
to rate items. If these are sustained
further delays are in prospect.

THREE bills intended to improve
L prohibition enforcement, principal
ly through the relief of congested fed
eral court dockets. were given the ap-
proval of the house judiciary COM
mittee. One measure would authorize
the summary prosecution of offenses,
elsewhere defined as misdemeanors,
before United States commissioners
without a jury. Whatever the action
of the commissioner, it must be con-
firmed or disapproved by member Of
the federal bench.
Another would amend the United
States code to define a misdemeanor
as an offense calling for maximum
penalty Of six months in Jail, a fine
of $500, or both, and felony as an
offense punishable by Imprisonment
for not less than one year.
The third measure would amend the
Jones law to define a misdemeanor
under the prohibition laws as an Of
Tense committed by one who is not an
habitual violator of the dry statutes
and a case involving not more than
one gallon Of liquor.

DREMIER MUsSOLINI recently de-
1 livered several addresses so fiery
and provocative concerning the neces-
sity of having Italy prepared for war
that the negotiations between that
country and France for naval limita-
ton agreement were broken off. at
least temporarily. Some Of the French
newspapers even hint at the posi-
bility Of war between France and
Italy, though the conciliatory attitude
of the French government is stressed.
On the other hand. Deputy Gray in
a speech before the italian chamber
of deputies, appealed to France to
make an accord with Italy so that
Europe may present united front
against America in the future armed
struggle which he is certain will
come.

Boston Bruins and Montreal Ma
 rooms Clash Again Tonight

Montreal, Que. March 22.--tR}- The Boston Bruins and the Montreal Maroons. were ready today 10 re- enact tonight their memorable struggle of Thursday night for hockey nonors, which the Bruins won 10 1 in the longest overtime game the big league ever had wit messed.
 Boston, with one of the necessary three Stanley cup victories secure ly in hand, enters the second tilt Of the best-t three out of-fivc series in the top bracket of the National league play-offs, filled with confi- dcnce and hope-confidence that they can win: hope that they will be able to finish the series in three straight games. The Maroons go into the game handicapped by one de- feat, but still very much in the rum ming and buoycd up with as much confidence and hope as their rivals.
 Despite the prolonged and hectic battle of Thursday, when the teams fought through one hour, 45 minutes and 55 seconds of grucling hockey both were in excellent health and spirits today.
 Babe Siebert of the Maroons and Dutch Glinor of Boston. arc casual ties. Both however, are expected to be back in action before the series is finished. They may be able to play tonight, but this is problemati- cal. The respective homogeneous have had nothing definite to say on the subject.
