FIGHT OVER TREATY
CRUISER CUT SEEN
Senate Big Navy Group Has
. Insisted That All of 23
rs Planned Are Needed.
~ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
Curtailment of the big-cruiser build
ing program already approved by Con-
gress, was foreseen today as the prin.
cipal source of any opposition to the
London naval agreement that might
arise in the Senate.
The accord reached at the British
capital was interpreted as meaning that
Of the % vessels Of this type the con-
struction of which has been authorized,
five would not be built. The big navy
group of the Senate has insisted that
all % are essential to an adequate Ma
tional defense.
With the approval Of two-thirds Of
the Senate necessary for ratification of
the treaty which is to follow the agree
ment. the Capital today kept an alert
watch upon that branch of Congress
for indications of its reaction.
Members Of the big-navy group, how
ever, reserved judgment and declined to
comment until they could give the
agreement more study and until more
details of the accord are available.
Cotton Hopes All viii Join.
Word of the developments in London
brought from Acting Secretary Cotton
of the State Department the assertion
that three-power naval pact appar-
emily was assured. He was still hopeful,
he said, that France and Italy event.
ually would add their signatures to the
treaty.
In general, the agreement was regard
ed as effecting a great saving in ex-
penditures for capital ships and big
cruisers, but neceSsitating large outlay
for small cruisers II parity with Great
Britain is to be obtained in this cate
CORY of war craft. Chairman Britten
Of the House naval committee esti-
mated this expenditure at Sos, 100000.
On this ground, the committee chair
man expressed vigorous objection to the
agreement, asserting that the small
cruiser is a type of vessel that the
United States does not need and will
said, is aware of this circumstance and
has taken this chance to assure British
predominance on the sea for all time"
Chairman Borah of the Senate for
eign relations committee, declined to
comment on the terms Of the agree
ment, but said he would give his sup
port to any treaty which works mo
competition"
Hale Reserves Judgment.
Senator Hale Of Maine and Senator
Swanson of Virginia, respectively, chair
man and ranking minority member of
the Senate naval committee. also re-
served judgment, but were emphatic in
asserting that the treaty would be close
~ examined.
Representative French Of Idaho, chair
man Of the appropriations subcommittee
which handles funds for she Navy, con-
ferred with President Hoover late yec-
terday and said afterward that the OUT
standing accomplishment of the Confer
ence had been in dxirg tonnages for
each classification Of ship, which. he
asserted. will remove competition in
construction programs"
He, added that he would have pre-
ferred a greater reduction than that
provided as he believed this would have
made world peace rlore secure. The
outcome Of the Conference, he said,
SHOULD commend the most earnest Gp-
proval on the part OF the people Of the
United States and the world"

PARIS IS WELL PLEASED.
Arrangement to Handle italian
Issue Is Hailed.

issue IS haucOs
PARIS, April IL P.-Great satisfac-
ton was expressed in ofdcial circles to-
day at the way the Naval Conference
was winding up.
TIE fact that France and italy will
be left In a position to continue negoti-
atoms is particularly stressed, as it had
been feared the conference might leave
these two countries in q disagreeable
situation that would increase the ten
sion which has existed some time.
The agreement whereby the question
between the two countries remains open,
with the British as arbitrators, Is
thought to be the best possible ending,
as far as France and Italy are con-
cerned. There is q feeling that the
conference accomplished all that could
be expected of tiff not more-and
that the result will tell strongly In the
work Of the League Disarmament Com
mission.

-Oe-SeNNSSNS
which has been reached by the United
States, Japan and ourselves"
AS envisaged here today, the treaty
which will be reached will contain three
parts. Chapter would contain the
points on which all five powers are in
agreement, such as humanization of
submarines, submarine size limitation
and possibly the idea Of battleship
holiday.
Chapter 2 would include the three
power agreement covering all categories
OF ships as reached by Japan, America
and Great Britain. Chapter 8 would
declare the intention of France and
italy and Great Britain to compose
their differences and work them into
the treaty to complete it at some
future time.
Guarantee Discussion Dropped.
There probably will be a clause to
the effect that any of the three ma
tions signatory to the limitation treaty,
II menaced by the building programs
OF nation or nations not signatory,
may alter its own program accordingly
Proportional increases by the remain
ing two powers then would be In order.
For the moment, at least, discussion
Of a security formula guaranteeing
France against attack has been dropped
by the British, and with it the sug-
gestion that the United States might
enter a consultative pact. Both ideas
arouse considerable inimical comment
among the home folk Of Britain and
America.
The naval delegations themselves
may not sign the treaty as evolved
here. An effort will be made to get
as much work done as possible prior
to the Easter holiday, and the Arneri-
cans may be able to keep their reserva-
lions on the Leviathan, which sails for
New York April %. Ambassadors Of
the four visiting powers, remaining
here, probably will sign the treaty and
conclude the business OF the conference.

INSPECT MEDICINE CHEST
INSPIRING HOUSECLEANING
CupbOards and Medicine Recep-
tacle Needs Overhauling

Don't overlook the kitchen cup.
board or the medicine chest while
you are doing your spring house
cleaning" is the advice DIR. Robert L.
Swain, Deputy Food and Drug Com
missioner of the State Department of
Health, gives to every housekeeper in
the State. t.
"Like every other cupboard in the
place, the kitchen cupboard and the
medicine chest need a thorough over
hauling every now and then. AS you
look over them," he continued, you
will probably find as you do in other
cupboards, lot of things poked away
that have lost their freshness or that
are even harmful and that should be
discarded for. safety's sake.
"The real job comes after the vari-
Gus shelves have been cleared out and
thoroughly scrubbed with plenty of
water and soap, and when you have to
decide what is to go back on the
shelves. If you want to safeguard
your family and to save yourself lot
of trouble, stop long enough while you
are working on your kitchen cabinet
to label your boxes and jars or what
ever you use as containers for your
supplies, and to label them with good,
clear lettering.
"Next, after labelling, separate the
harmful ones, such as insecticides and
household poisons, from the supplies
that are used in cooking. And finally,
put the insecticides and such things
in safe place. Don't keep them in
the same place with food supplies or
with ingredients used in cooking.
"Within the last six months we
have all known of accidental poison
ings that have occurred here in Ma
ryland as well as in other parts of
the country because insecticides or
other equally dangerous substances,
were somehow mixed with baking
powders or with t1avorlng substances.
Very serious illnesses and even deaths
have resulted from this sort of care
lessness. The spring housekeeping
gives the housekeeper an opportunity
to check up on all such supplies; to
label them clearly and properly and
to store them where they will not en-
danger peoples lives. Above all, such
supplies should be stored beyond the
reach of children.
GAS to the medicine chest-don't
keep odds and ends of medicine that
you have had on hand for two or three
years. There are certain supplies
that you will want to have and that
you will need to have on hand. Ask
your doctor to give you a list Of
them. Then go to your druggist and
get the fresh supplies"
