HALE CONCLUDES
NAVAL HEARINGS
Favorable Report on London
Pact Is Being Drawn
Up by Borah.

Committee hearings on the London
naval treaty ended today.
After one more naval oficer had OBJ
jected to the pact before the Senate
naval committee Chairman Hale re-
cessed the committee indefinitely.
The foreign relations committee con-
cluded its hearings yesterday and q
favorable report is in preparation.
The sole witness today was Rear
Admiral s. s. Robson, superintendent
of the Naval Academy, who said
concessions to Japan under the
treaty amounted to partial sur
render. Of American sovereignty over the
Philippines.
practically we hold the Philippines
on suffrance in view Of these conces-
sions," he said
81 can see no conclusive reason why
We should give Japan this advantage
as far as. the Philippines are concerned"
I'VE are worse of in every combatant
vessel. We will find ourselves in in
surmountable difficulties in the Far
East. I do not mean we would lose a
war, but would have q hard time win
ming it,"
Both Chairman Hale and Senator
Oddie, Republican, OF Nevada, indicated
they thought reservations to the treaty
necessary.
, Chairman Borah Of the foreign fela-
tons committee. apparently expects
only one or two votes against the favor
able report he Is drafting. This re-
port probably will be handed In next
week, but viii lie over until the spe-
cial Senate session to be called after
the regular session ends.

provision In the bill gives the President
much the same power over tariff rates
that he has under existing law. The
President is authorized by proclama-
ton to approve the rates of duty rec
commended by the tariff commission
IF in his Judgment such rates Of duty
and changes are shown by such investi-
CATION of the commission to be neces-
sary to equalize differences in cost Of
production"
Deviation Prohibited.
The only limitation placed upon the
President in the new agreement on the
flexible provision which does not exist
in the present law is that he must
accept q duty laid down by the Tariff
Commission and is not authorized to
deviate from that rate. After the COM
mission has made an investigation and
report of its recommendation, however,
the President has full power either to
put the new rate into effect or to place
the recommendation In his pocket and
let 1t die there.
Under the earlier agreement Of the
conferees, the President had go days
in which to determine whether he would
promulgate the rate recommended by
the tariff commission or veto It, If he
did neither, then the rate recommended
by the commission automatically be-
came effective. This is the power which
is now taken away from the tariff COM
mission by the new agreement.
Fifty Per Cent Is Limit.
The President, under the flexible pro-
vision now agreed to, and the Tariff
Commission, are limited IN change Of
rates to so per cent Of the rates laid
down in the tariff law. That Is similar
to existing law.
They may not recommend or au-
thorize a transfer of an article from the
list to the free list or from the
free list to the dutiable list or change
in form of duty. This, too, is similar to
existing law.
Senator Smoot, chairman Of the
committee, said he would sub
init the report on the tariff bill again to
the Senate today. He indicated, how
ever, that the Senate probably would
not be in a position to take action on 1T
until Monday. owing to the Memorial
day holiday tomorrow and the fact that
many Of the Senators have engagements
which will keep them away from the
Senate and the city until Monday.
The new agreement, 1t is believed,
will meet the objection raised to the
earlier agreement, which was that the
conferees had exceeded their power
by placing in tn bill provisions which
were not included in the bill as 1t passed
either the Senate or the House.
Soon after the Senate met today Sen
ator Pat Harrison of Mississippi, one
Of the Democratic conferees on the
tariff bill, vigorously attacked the new
agreement on the flexible provisions.
Senator Harrison declared that what
happened In conference this morning
verifies what some men have thought.

Martial Law Regulations.
BOMBAY, India, May 90 DR.
Twenty-Five Nationalist volunteers left
here today for Sholapur, where they
will defy martial law regulations pro-
hibiting display Of the Nationalist nag.
Several arrests already have been made
there.
Bombay Nationalist congress criers
last night paraded the city calling upon
the people to join today in q procession
with the body Of o non volunteer salt
Sunday in the raid at Wadala.
In the view Of some observers there
has been remarkable revival of the
Nationalist congress energy since out
breaks in the Bhendi Bazaar district,
Moslem quarter, the first Of the week,
In which Moslems attacked police.
Four persons were killed and more than
so wounded.
The war council" Of the Bombay
congress has decided to renew the mass
raids on the Wadala salt works, defy
all the laws that can be def1ed, and to
spend more effort and money on propa-
ganda for the Nationalist cause.
Although Moslem heads reavowed
their opposition to the civil disobedience
campaign there was expectation of wide
Moslem participation in the movement
from now on as the outgrowth of the
trouble in Bhendi Bazaar. The war
council was said to expect that help
given Moslern wounded during the riots
by congress and Red Gross volunteers
would strengthen their hands. Many
Moslens were said to have offered their
services.
The correspondent Of the London
Daily Express learned that both cavalry
and infantry were called tn helm notice
at Lucknow, who found themselves
Tuesday almost powerless to cope with
mob which gathered when congress
volunteers were denied the privilege of
organizing Q procession through the
city.
