Colonel Stimson declared that

excellent opportunity to size UP

cope with big and difficult

Stimson made four chief points:
First, that no other President in
recent years, IF at any time" has
carried out his campaign pledges;
second, that this was accom-
plished in the face of the eco

it was done despite the fact that

Collapse of the Franco-1talian
naval negotiations, now officially
announced at Geneva, jeopardizes
the full effectiveness of the new
London naval treaty ratified by
the Senate only a few months
ago.
This much was conceded here
today by officials who have been
following the efforts Of France
and Italy to get together with
some concern.
BY failing to agree between
themselves on the size Of their
respective navieS, the Fench and
Italians reduce the naval treaty
to a three-power agreement
Great Britain, United States and
Japan and at the same time
open the door to naval building
beyond the treaty limits.
Both France and Italy are now
building and have been doing so
induStriously all this year
Immediately after France re
fused to accept Italy's claim to
parity at London, the Italian gov
ernment voted q 44,000-ton build,

countered soon after by preparing
a SIS, ,O00-ton program.
There the situation has rested
while the French and italian ex.

Those efforts have now failed,
and the situation is viewed in
Washington with some uneasiness
as to what the future holds.
Primarily, the Fraaco.Italian
dispute is Of far more concern to
Britain than the United States,

Col. Grant Urged Not to Give
Lowest Bidder Contract
Owing to Nonunion Labor

Because the work of painting
the exterior of the White House
was done by a firm not employing
union labor, Col. q. S. Grant, Sd,
director of Public Buildings and
Parks, said today that he had
received lately a great many pro-
tests against awarding the con-
tract for this work to R. E.
Ferguson, Inc. 200 block B st.
N. W., who, according to Colonel
Grant. was the lowest bidder.
Justifying his action in award
ing this contract, Colonel Grant
said that, Of the four bids re.
ceiyed, the Ferguson bid was the
lowest ana that the qualifications
OF the firm were given a special
Investigation, which showed that.
1t had the necessary experience
and competent personnel, = and
had already done work for the
Government In the National
Mnsenfn, the Treasury Building,
the Naval Hospital. and other
buildings.
Colonel Grant said that in
each Of these cases Ferguson's
work had been excellent in
quality and he had satisfactorily
fulfilled every expectation up to
his contract %
If this complaint is instigated
by the local union of the Brother
hood of Painters, Decorators and
Paper Hangers of America, it
comes as a surprise, Colonel
Grant said, because he had a
lengthy conference with their
representative before awarding
the contract at which, he said,
he fully explained the legal Situ-
alton to them.

union, Colonel Grant explained,
