M0SLEMS IN INDIA SUPPORT CAMPAIGN
Parade Bombay Streets Adopt
 Resolution FaYoring Gandhi

Bombay, India, June 4.-(P)-Na- tionalist leaders today foresaw in- creasing cooperation of Moslem ele- ments with them in the civil dis obedience campaign by which they expect to win independence and home rule from Great Britain.
 A mile long procession of Moslems last night paraded the strees to demonstrate Mohammedan sympa- thy for the movement. Later they as- sembled on the Maidan Esplanadc and unanimously adopted resolu- tion supporting the program in- augurated by the all-India national congress entrusted to the leadership of MahamaAiandhi.
 The reservation appealed to all Moslems to participate in the civil disobedience movement and to boy colt British goods. It was declared also that as long as the congress and the Moslem council did not support the proposed London round table conference no Moslem should attend it as a representative of his people.
 Religious Gulf BriGged
 Since the start Of the civil dis obediance campaign Moslem partici- patton had been much mooted. The Moslems represent d large Indian minority, but with a racial and re- ligious gulf between them and the Hindus, sometimes termed unbridge- able. Their leaders have maligned the nationalist cause, with which they joined in 1924, and have as serted that nationalist government would be predominately Hindu, sub merging Moslem rights.
 There has been evident from the ! beginning, however, particularly in Bombay presidency, a tendency to- | ward participation by the Moslem 1 masses, and recently this has be- ! come more and more pronounced. Moslem support in the campaign would be a tremendous factor in favor of Gandhi movement.
 Persons injured yesterday in riot l ing at the world detention camp, where salt law yiolators are being 1 held, were listed at SS. The rioting grew out Of demonstrations by sym- pathizers outside the camp in denun- citation of King George on the occa- sion of his Goth birthday. Crowds l parading with black flags, jeered troops repairing a barbed wire fence around the prison, and women sat i down in front Of them to impede their work. The fighting developed with the removal Of the women. The 1 enrased prisoners made a dash for freedom. Many escaped but most of them were brought back.

Hoover to Call Special Session of Senate Day After Adjournment to
 Act On London Naval Agreement
President Refuses to Con-
 slider Postponing Ratifi- cation Effort Until Next Winter-Borah Asks for Treaty Correspondence.

Washington, June 4 P-President Hoover intends to call the promised special session of the senate to deal with the London naval treaty on the day after congress adjourns.
 This was the chief executives answer to suggestions of republican leaders that consideration of the pact be deferred until next winter as the members of the senate were growing restless and were anxious to get home for the campaigns of the coming summer and fall.
 Tells Watson and Moses
 Such word was taken to him by Senator Watson of Indiana and Sen ator Moses of New Hampshire, re- spectively. the majority floor leader and the president pro tenn. of their branches of congress They made known the chief executives re- sponse late yesterday.
 It was learned also that there had also been q frank discussion Of party prospects and plans, together with a talk Of available means of bringing the President and congress into closer cooperation.
 There also were indications that the complaints of some republican representatives against the retention Of Claudius Huston as chairman of the republican national committee were discussed. Watson and Moses both declined to say what the pur- port of the conversation was, but there were no indications that Illus ton intended to resign or that Mr. Hoover intended 10 ask him to with draw.
 The complaints of the congress- men arose from Huston's testimony before the senate lobby committee that he used funds collected for the Tennessee River Improvement asso- ciation in stock market transactions.
 Borah Asks Correspondence
 Meanwhile, Chairman Borah of the senate foreign relations con- mlttee, submitted 10 the state de- partment the request of Senator Johnson of California, for additional portions of the Washington-Lond correspondence which cleared the way for the recent naval conference.
 A meeting of the committee WIS called for today, but Borah did not expect any further discussion of the treaty until late in the week. He predicted it would be ratified within less than a fortnight's debate.

TARIFF BALLOT

(, Q. P. Leaders Hope to Get
 Vote by End Of Week

Washington, June 4 (p-Rcpubli can leaders of the senate today sought to work out an arrange ment that would insure vote on the tariff bill by the end of the week
 Repulsed in an effort to obtain an agreement for a roll call late in the afternoon on the supplementary conference report, containing the disputed flexible clause. they never theless were hopeful the way could be cleared for early disposition of the bill
 democratic spokesman, Sena- tor simmons Of North Carolina. pre- vented the proposed agreement for vote today. Senator McNary. the assistant republican leader. pro- posed such an agreement late yes terday. but Simmons objected on the ground that several members wished to speak before taking a roll call.
 See Saving Of Time
 With Senator Norris. independent republican, Nebraska, Simmons con- tended much time might be saved. if the two conference reports could be considered at once. Only the supplemental report is now before the senate. It contains but six pro- visions, including the flexible clause and the lumber tariff, while the other section Of the report contains the hundreds Of rate sections.
 4 belief persisted in the senate today that when the latter is sub mitted points of order will be raised against it necessitating it's return to conference. II already has been approved by the house and addi- tonal changes in conference would require further action by that branch of congress.
 The state department has com piled with the resolution of Senat tor Thomas, democrat, Oklahoma. asking it to submit to the senate all foreign protests against the pend ing measure. These totaled more than 160, coming from about 30 nations. Most of them were sub mitted by foreign trade organiza- tions and individuals and some came from the governments them selves.

RAILROADS GIVEN
 HIGH RATE CHANCE
New Law and Court Decision
 Pave Way for Advances

Washington, June Pl-A con- bination of recent court decisions and business conditions are regard cd here as placing American rail- roads in an advantageous technical position to seek general advance in freight rates.
 Thus far there have been no au- thoritative announcements from railroad quarters of an intention 10 take advantage of the situation. dl- though a move in that direction would cause little surprise in Wash ington quarters most interested. Since 1920, with trivial exceptions, the course of railroad rate adjust ments in the United States has been downward.
 Court Opens Question
 The supreme court this week, by invalidating a transcontinental rate reduction which the interstate com merce commission sought to make under its interpretation of the Hoch- smith resolution. contributed the newest factor to the novel prospect on general rate increase. The effect of its finding, however, can only be estimated in the light of other new phases in the rate situation.
 By the transportation act the commerce commission is required to fix rates that will enable efficient carriers to earn "a nearly as may be" a reasonable return on the capi- tai invested in their properties.
 The commission has construed the reasonable return provision to mean 5 3-4 per cent on property valuation Since January. railroad earnings have been tending downward, an1 the bureau of railway economics maintained here by the carriers es- inmates that March and April earn. lngs barely amount 10 a per cent return on the value of investment ir railroad property.
 To Apply Low Rates
 The HoCh-Smith resolution direct. cd the commission 10 apply to pro ducts Of agriculture affected by de. precision the lowest possible rates compatible with the maintenance O. an efficient transportation system, and while the commission has no yet put 1t into general effect, it dit follow it's conception of the law T granting a reduction on Californian deciduous fruit shipments. Tn court this week ruled that the re ductlon was unlawful, taking into consideration all the effects on raj earnings.
 The previous decision bearinl upon the situation was render-i { year ago in the valuation test ca7, of the St Louis and O'Fallon rail road. While the complete result O this controversy will not be known for an indefinite period. the decision IS generally regarded as assuring tn, railroads a legal right to estimat, thelr returns in proportion to considerably larger valuation thar any the commission has been willin; to grant as yet.
 Thus three ot the factors bearint upon rate policies have all beer brought to point in one direction by the O'Fallon decision, railroad are entitled to claim larger earning to justify the larger estimate Q value foreshadowed for the proper ty by the current monthly return 1 they are falling short of what ha been construed officially as "rea sonable return,' and by the Hoch smith resolution decision the com mission has been directed to revis Its conceptions of Justifable reduc tions.

Chiffon Tops
Fabrics for
Summer
1t Is One OF the Coolest
Materials a Person
Can Wear
By WILMA LA VILE

Clothes for hot weather, more
and cooler clothes for street
wear is the cry of Washington
women. And one of the several
smart answers is the frock OF
printed chiffon made in semi.
tailored manner.
Chiffon is one Of the coolest
fabrics you can wear, as you
probably know. In better grades
it washes like a rag, and irons
easily, though we don't recon-
mend washing all your Chiffons
unless you know they are wash
able. It is so sheer and the
weave is so open that it does
not hold the heat, even in dark
Colors.
The frocks we have sketched
answer every other dictate OF
summer chic and comfort. They
are in dark tones, the pindot-
ted frock in black and white,
the other print in navy and
white. OF course, dark colors
are smarter than anything else
for the street, though frocks
come in pastels if you prefer
them.
Both frocks are simple, even
tailored in their appearance
which makes them suitable for
street wear. yet their lines and
their general appearance Of
SoftneSs are feminine and en-.
tirely in keeping with this new
mode. The little short sleeves
are now perfectly correct for
street, and are smarter than
any other length.
Again. they have tiny prints,
which would make them fash
iOnable in any fabric, but is es-
pecially good in chiffon, which
lends itself to the indiStinct eff
feet of dots and small prints.
Lingerie touches about the
neck and sleeves add another
fashionable touch. give sum-
merry appearance, and make the
frocks more becoming than ever.
These froCks have the added
grace of being suitable to any
type, any age. They're distinctly
youthful, yet could be donned
with perfect dignity by a matron
of any age. They may be worn
with simple street shoes. light
or dark hat. and are suitable for
informal occasions as well as for
street or business.
Tomorrow Miss La Vile will
discuss the innovations in sports
headgear. She will be glad TO
answer any questions about
these articles if you will teIe-

This is A collarleSs coat, the
neckline plain and smooth. and
it's a particularly smart type to
choose if you like to wear
dresses with jabots, frills or
berthaS.
Because you can wear them
outside the collarless coat and
look very feminine, individual
and Summer-like.
DulI-FiniShed Silks
These fashionable silk coats
which you see worn even now
on warmer days, are usually of
heavy faille silk, crepe marocain
like heavy canton crepe) or
flat crepe-all of them the dull
finished silks that are best in
fashion.
Generally they are not fur
trimmed. for their main purpose
in fashion life is to be cooler.
more comfortable summer coat.
But quite often you find inter
esting scanning designs that act
as decoration.
The Scarf Coat
The silk coat with the scarf
which we've had illustrated
shows this use of scanning de
tail. This is a popular type
with folks who like softneSs
round the neck. The scarf can
be wrapped, tied or left flying
free.
The jabot coat is especially
flattering to the slim-cheSted
person. It's soft. ripping full
ness fills up the holloWs
The third sketch shows one
type of collarless coat and how
pleasantly it is worn with a
frilly jabot.
Early season WearerS of silk
coats favor the same type hats
that they wear with their wool
coats-the draped beret. the
new cloche. or the draped. off
the-face hat.
But later on when the sun
gets stronger. the new wider
brimmed straw hats are going
to look very smart with these
soft coat fashions.
