Reads From Statement

Heads From Statement
 Adams read from prepared { statement, saying he had signed the treaty because he felt 1t attained the largest measure of naval reduc- ton possible.
 As secretary ct the navy. am clear that the treaty is advantageous 10 the navy of the United States" he said.
 Senator Walsh democrat. Massa- chusetts. interposed the first ques- ton, asking if the treaty would change the present American naval building program.
 Adams responeded in brief detail. but Hale suggested that he be per- mltted 10 make his opening state mtlt without interruption.
 Adams stressed the value Of the treaty as laying down q regular and constant program. Tt struck a bal ance.' he said, between inch and 5 inch-gun cruisers.
 q have no doubt" he continued, that the treaty gives the United States parity with Great Britain in every category"
 Tells of Settlement
 The witness detailed the Japanese settlement.
 Japan has steadily built cruisers md her fleet Is superior to ours" he said, the Japanese submarines are substantially less old than ours.
 Under the circumstances we made a fair compromise"

l these were not made public,
 The negotiations were all in- formal among selected represents i tves of the delegations. and no records were kept Of these" he con- 1 tlnued. Whenever one of our dele Bates met with one Of another coun- l try on negotiations, he would keep a sort Of diary record"
 Are those records in the state de partment?" asked Johnson.
 No, mine is in the form Of q diary 1 which I worked up on the ship com i lNg back. l know of nothing in them that would not be available 10 this committee. but they certainly are not for publication"
 Johnson asked f Stimson thought this country should build ID 10 its i full strength under the treaty.
 Question For Budget Bureau
 That is q question for the budg- ct bureau said the secretary.
 Johnson remarked he had heard that the British battleships Rodney and Nelson alone could wipe out the VNolS AmcrlCdn meet
 T have heard that but not from American sources" replied Stmson. There was unanimity among our raval experts that the American bat tie fleet was equal to the British under the treaty"
 Did you propose the construction of an additional battleship?'
 "Yes"
 Why"
 That goes into the negotiations and it ought 10 be discussed in executive session. but if you pre- fer"
 T don't prefer to press you on anything you think should he re- served for executive session"
 Well, we have gone into it. l will discuss it." replied Stimson. There were two ways Of making our fleet at least the equal Of the British fleet. One was 10 modernize our vessels and the second. more drae- tic and more expensive, was to built an additional vessel like the Rodney Or the Nelson.
 Tt was a matter Of negotiation As q result we had no difficulty in getting consent for the first method"

Independent Grocers
 Doomed, Officials Say

Berkeley, Cal, Oct. 1 P)--Thc passing of the small independent grocery store was predicted today in survey made public by the eco- monies department of the University of California
 The survey said independent gro- cers probably would have to go out of business or join chain organiza- tlons as a result of the advent of CO., operative retail groups, cash-and- : carry stores and chain systems.
 Monthly charge accounts, delivery boys and the business of cashing personal checks for the accommoda- tion of customers were said by the survey to be among the features des- tined for the discard.
 The survey indicated the decline of the independent grocery store be- gan before the rise of chain stores, This was represented as having been due to the formation of cooperative buying groups.
