Of Harry Suchernlan, rich sausage
manufacturer, trying to force hnl

entering from front and rear at the
same time.

through the front door. He opened
fire along the narrow hallway with
his left hand as three other de-

America viii Not Support
Move to Abandon
Big Vessels.
DELEGATION IS DELAYED
Progress of Liner Ham,
pered by Heavy Seas;
Pushing Hard.
BY RAYMOND CLAPPER,
United Press Staf Correspondent

SIS. GEORGE WASHINGTON,
AT SEA, Jan. 14.-Although the
United States sponsored the pres
ent holiday on the construction Of
battleships and favors the continu-
alton Of the holiday, it is apparent
America is not going to support a
move 10 abandon that type of war
ship entirely.
The battleship, in fact. looms
larger in importance as the Lon
don five-poWer naval conference
draws nearer.
Heavy ships, American observers
believe, must continue to be the care
Of the American fleet. The battle
ship is the fleets unit of ultimate
force, American naval experts
aboard declare. and all other naval
ornaments are contributory to its
function
This American view has not been
changed in the preliminary ex-
changes of views. The proposal of
the British fixing a maximum of
10000 tons for war craft is likely
to find little support from the
American delegation.
Heavy seas continued to delay the
progress of the George Washington.
The vessel was pushing hard to
reach Plymouth by Thursday night
so the delegates may ride sleepers to
London in time for breakfast.

TARIFF CENSURE
SUGAR Interest Relations
Called innocent by

Bv United Press
WASHINGTON, Jan. l4.-Prea-
dent Hoover was exonerated TO-DAY
of any improperly or anything
open to censure or criticism" in his
relations with those interested IN
the sugar tariff by the senate LOBBY
investigating committee.
The committee reached this con-
clusion in a report to the senate
which explained lit is quite likely
that representatives OF both the
contending forces waited on the
President to incline him 1avorably
to their views"
The committee estimated, rough
~. that contending forces in the
sugar lobby spent over 100000,
the cost to those urging the raise
being between $l75,000 and 100000,
and the cost t. those against the
raise being between 100000 and
s225, 000"
The committee S report was tossed
into the midst of an already raging
debate in the senate on the sugar
tariff issue. Because of the mild
way in which it summarized the
mass Of testimony the committee
has received on the sugar lobby.
the report was not expected to have
much influence on the situation.
Little difference was found by the
committee between the forces work
ing on the two sides of the question.
Both were well organized and highly
financed, it said.
The tariff bill, the report said,
has brought into existence or into
activity lobby interested in the
sugar schedule perhaps more per-
fectly organized and literally
financed than any other concerned
about any feature of that bill, or
any other legislation before con-
gress."
The committee found "a particu-
larly reprehensible part Of the pro-
gram carried on by Herbert G. La
kin, president of the Cuba Company,
for a low tariff was IAN effort to
stir up hostility to the United States
in Latin American countries upon
the assumption that it, by its tariff
policy, was mistreating Cuba"

Seek Parity, Balance

RU Lnttcd Press
ROME, Jan. 14.-Parity with
France an da navy balanced eff
GENTLY between light and medium
ships will be the Italian program
for which delegates to the London
naval conference will fight. Italy
also is prepared to favor the aboli-
ton Of submarines at the parley.
Italy's reason for the parity de
mand is found in the fact France
is predominant among her probable
enemies. Those aspirations which
do not conflict with the plans of
France run afoul with Jugoslavia,
Italy's traditional rival and a sworn
ally of France.
While the italian navy never has
been equal to that of France and
while the Italian naval budget
never has sought to provide for a
navy equal to that of France, the
Italians are DESTROYS that the way
be left open for them should, in the
long possibility, it be necessary to
create a sea force up to the French
power.
Italy's last capital ship was built
seventeen years ago. The rest of
the Italian navy has been main
tanned within moderate measure as
well.
The pronounced inferiority COM
pared with the French is readily
discernible. For economy's sake
Italy would like to keep the naval
figures as low as possible.
