presented the document to the Presi.
dent on the south grounds of the White

discuss the selection of date for send
ing the treaty to the Senate for ratifi-
cation. 1t was regarded as likely that
1t would be transmitted to the Senate
not earlier than next Monday, and
probably will be accompanied by a spe-
cial message or letter of tranSmittal.
Overnight the treaty reposed in a
green steel safe at the State Depart
ment, no stronger than an ordinary
filing case. 1t was brought to the city
by William Beck, Mr.. Stimson;s secre-
tary.
Reception Is Uncertain. Il
An uncertain reception, however,
awaits it on Capitol Hill. Only a few
members of the Senate have expressed
themselves as approving or disapprov-
ing the pact, preferring to withhold
judgment until after more complete

possible heretofore.
It will be referred officially to the for
eign relations committee, which plans
public hearings. Two other congress
sional committees, the naval committees
of both the House and Senate, also will
hold hearings on the treaty.
Chairman Borah of the foreign rela-
tions committee has given the pact his
conditional approval. He believes it is
a real contribution to the cause of dis
armament, and is particularly pleased
that it contains no political commit
ments.
Chairman Hale of the Senate naval
committee, however, believes that 1t en-
bodies a departure from the American
principle of building up the fleet OF
heavy cruisers. Congress has authorized
the construction of % vessels of this
type, while the treaty limits America
to 18.

attempt at wholesale jail delivery, but
Supt. Curran was able to handle the
situation with his available force of
guards.

UP AS SEA FOILS RESCUE
Fishermen Strive in Vain to Take
Japanese Crew From Rocks
Near Cape Inubo.
BY the Associated Press

TOXIC, April 3O.-The Japanese
freighter Luzon Maru, which drifted on
the rocks near Cape Inubo, Ibaraki
Prefecture, was breaking up today under
the pounding of high seas which foiled
the attempts of rescue ships to remove
her crew of 80.
The wreck was only quarter Of a
mile OF shore and the distress signals
displayed by the men aboard the
freighter were easily seen in nearby vii
lagos. Fishermen tried in vain to ap-
proach the wreck in small boats. A
naval plane from the Kasumigaura base
circled overhead, unable to help.
The LuZon Maru, which ran aground
earlier in the day while en- route from
Otaru to Yokohama, has a net tonnage
Of 1859 and length of 345 feet.

SURPRISE ATTACK is BEATEN

Native Press Opposition to Censorship
Requirements Grows.
LONDON, April 80 (P,.-Unless all
news of disturbances is being stopped at
the source by British censors, two full
days have passed without o serious
breach of the peace in India.
Closing to visitors of Khyber Pass,
outlet from India to Afghanistan, was
unexplained. but was regarded as q pre-
cautionary act adopted for the protec-
ton OF Peshawar, which is but IL miles
distant.
A surprise attack was made Monday
on the artillery magazine at Barrack-
pore, which may have been intended as
a repetition of the Chittagong incident,
but 1t was unsuccessful. One Calcutta
report said sentry was shot in the leg
by raiders, whose connection with the
Indian Nationalist cause was uncertain.
Press Opposition Grows.
Growing opposition among the native
press developed to the governments Sc
curity requirements for papers coming
under the censorship. This amounted
to $4,000 rupees, or about $4,000. Ma
hatma Gandhi, leader of the civil diso-
bedience campaign, advised that the
owners of the papers submit to confis-
cation before they complied with the
ordinance. A committee representing
various Indian newspapers in Delhi de-
cided that after tomorrow no papers
would be published until further notice.
News organizations were requested to
discontinue their services.
Wedgewood Benn, secretary for India
in the Labor government, told former
Premier Baldwin, Conservative leader,
in Commons yesterday that the British
government approved reviving the press
censorship laws Of 1910.
Merchants Warn Shippers.
There was a reflex of the anti-British
agitation yesterday at Manchester,
where the Chamber of Commerce re-
ceived cables from Delhi and Bombay
warning shippers and manufacturers
Of cotton against possible cancellation
OF orders or refusal to accept con-
signments shipped.
The Bombay Native Piece Goods As
ISOLATION, one of those sending cable
grams, warned the chamber that "a
very serious and alarming crisis has
arisen for the mercantile community in
India" and he urged efforts to bring
about acceptance of national demands
and effect amicable settlement"
The Manchester chamber replied that
it would be unable to interfere with
political matters, but would insist upon
the sanctity of contracts. The chamber
advised the premier and other ministers
concerned of the incident.

EXTRA SESSION
BY FRASER EDWARDS
Copyright, 1880. by Universal
service, Gne.l

President Hoover win be urged
by Republican leaders In Congress
70 announce formally that he win
not call q special session Of the
Senate in the spring to jam
through the League Court.
This decision was reached yes.
terday when Republican leaders
agreed that public statement
from the President himself was
necessary to clear UP a situation
which threatens to force an extra
session Of the entire Congress.
Many Not Satisfied
While leaders were satisfied
with informal assurances OF q
White House secretary, Saturday,
that the President at this time
does not contemplate calling q
special Senate session, the rank
and file were not satisfied.
Leaders want a formal declara'
Eon to reassure foes Of the League
Court, who have threatened to
bring about an extra session Of
both Houses If the President con-
templates a special Senate session
to act on the court.
It is conceded court opponents
can force an extra session by de
laying enactment of a single de.
partmental appropriation bill.
In this situation the League
Court would find very rough
eledding, to say the least.
Ultimate Defeat Seen
So far as the foes Of the
League Court are concerned they
do not fear a special session OF
the Senate alone. With each
passing day they are convinced
more firmly that the Senate in
the end will reject the protocols
At the same time, there are
Senators in both parties opposed
to the League Court who believe
that an extra session of Congress
Is necessary and they are work
ing to that end.
These, however, are bitterly op
posed to a special session Of the
Senate alone and unless some def
mite assurance is given by Presi.
dent Hoover, they have it in
their power to force an extra
session Of both Houses.
In view Of this situation the
leaders believe it is up to Mr.
Hoover to make a formal an,
nouncement Of his intentions.

COMMUNIST TRIO
 BEFORE BEARDSLEY
Police Testify in Trials Of Three
 Red Agitators

Waterbury, April tP,--Police officers headed by Superintendent of Police Joseph H. Mclean took the witness stand this afternoon in the criminal court of common pleas at the trial of Rose Ross, Harry Hersh and John Borgnis, all charged with breach of the peace, as a result of a disturbance in front of the city hall on March in connection with a nationwide demonstration. The de- fendants asked for the right to poll the jury and exercised nine chal- lenges, while Judge Harry J. Beard sley excused four men.
 The head of the police department stated that one of his reasons for refusing the permit for parade and speech making in front of city hall March was that it would tie up traffic, especially as they wanted to stop there and it would interfere with the fire department.
 Superintendent Mclean said no order was given for the clubbing of any communists. One hundred of- flcers were on duty at city hall that day.
 Several of the men called for ex- animation as prospective jurymen were excused when they told the court that they were of the opinion that the accused were guilty.
