Chairman Britten of the House naval
affairs committee predicted today that
the superdreadnaught proposed for the
United States by Secretary Stimson at
the London Naval Conference to equal
ize American tonnage with that Of
Great Britain would never be built and
would be held up as "sop" to American
naval enthusiasts.
Further, he asserted, If the American
delegation 'is going to play into the
hands OF Great Britain 1t would be well
for them to pack up their trunks and
come home"
He said he would oppose the proposed
construction Of eleven 6-inch gun cruis-
ers as not adapted to American naval
needs, but, on the contrary, are lust

''The best expert advice of the United

Chairman Britten then said "it was
presumed that we were attending q
naval limitations conference and not
an expansion convention in the inter-
est of more ships and larger appropri-
atoms.

the example set by President Harding"
Britten asserted, "he would bring about

DEFICIT IS FACED
AT END OF CHEST
CAMPAIGN TONIGHT
Officials Are in Doubt of
Success as Final Reports
Are Awaited.

Whether today'S whirlwind campaign
would result in reaching the $l,786,-
73T07 goal Of the Community Chest was
still in doubt by Chest officials as they
prepared for the public mass meeting
this evening in Constitution Hall al
which Washington's final answer will
be given.
Regardless Of whether success or fail
ure meets the efforts to wipe out the
deficit of nearly $780, 900, it was def
nitely decided that the campaign viii
close officially tonight.
I'VE are not asking for one penny that
IS not needed" John Poole, campaign
chairman, said today in the face Of in
dications that point to considerable
deficit after the last dollar is reported
from the various team captains.
Every dollar of the $1,786, 737.07
sought for the Chest has been definitely
allocated to some organization by q
level-headed, close questioning group OF
business men and women who inveSti-
gated every cent sought by each organ
ization before giving it their final ap-
proval. This means that we Simply
must have the amount sought and am
stu certain that Washington will not
let as worthy project as the Com
munity Chest fail"
Future Plans in Doubt.
Asked what the Chest would do If
the budget quota Is not raised at the
erid Of the campaign tonight, Mr.. Poole
explained that the question would be
controlled largely by the size of the
deficit II there is one.
Should further efforts be needed to
raise a small sum, the special gifts
ditional contributions to I'LL up the gap,
he explained. But If the deficit is re-
garded as hopeless" Mr.. Poole said.
the Chest would have to allocate the
money it has In hand to the various
agencies IN proportion to the present
budget.
The Chest cannot go into debt, what
ever happens, Mr.. Poole pointed out.
The money collected for the rs
agencies in the Chest is for running
expenses and not for capital account.
II the situation is hopeless at the end
Of the campaign it will be necessary
to cut down the amount each agency
Is to receive.
Main Hope on Reports.
While hoping still that a generous
public impulse in the, final hours OF
the campaign would render such q
situation unnecessary, Chest officials
pointed out that some additional con-
tributions will be received after the
campaign ends from absent Washing
tonianS or others who may be expected
to increase their gifts. But the main
hope Of the campaign. it was made

Warming Is Issued
On Fake Solicitors
By Chest Director

In connection with the report
that two persons we're arrested
for false solicitation of Com
munity Chest funds, Elwood
Street, director of the Chest, to-
day issued this warning to Wash
tngtonians:
Prospective contributors can
easily avoid being duped by any
unauthorized solicitor by simply
signing a pledge card agreeing to
contribute to the Chest in four
installmentS. as provided on the
card. instead of giving cash to
the solicitor.
"Of course, this applies only
when the solicitor Is not known
to the contributor. All Com
munity Chest workers carry Gre
dental cards, and as most of them
are working in their own neigh
borhoods they should have no
trouble in identifying themselves.
Any person who has any doubt
regarding a contribution made to
the Chest can verify the reception
Of his gift by calling at Chest
headquarters or telephoning Met

FRAUD UNCOVERED
Confidence Men Solicit Funds
at Embassies and
Legations.

A special squad of detectives was as
signed today to search for two nimble-
witted confidence men busy canvaSsing
Washington's embassies and legations

ton Of mythical Police Department

Apparently believing police had no
knowledge Of their daring activities,
the ICON" men continued this afternoon

mats from the four corners of the
world. They called at the Ecuadorean
legation, 1912 New Hampshire avenue,
shortly before o'clock this afternoon.
The two men were ushered into the
presence Of high-ranking oficial Of
the legation. The spokesman, a suave
individual, explained he was In charge
Of a campaign" to collect money with
which to publish an elaborate book
extolling the virtues of Washington
Woodworking, alert policemen"
Told to Return.
He was told to return tomorrow.
Smiling broadly, he babe the diplomat
a courteous farewell and took his de-
parture. Both he and his somewhat
reticent companion were neatly dressed.
They were middle-aged and fat.
The Ecuadorean of1cial assured de-
tectiveS who arrived at the legation
shortly after the solicitors" left that
the pair certainly looked like cops"
Notified by the Turkish embassy that
the pair had made an eloquent plea
for financial assistance, Inspector VII
liam s. Shelby today assigned half a
dozen detectives to the case. Shelby
predicted the early capture Of the men.
Payment Is Stopped.
Meanwhile, it was learned that one
had been given check for a substan-
tial sum by the Belgian Embassy. Pay
ment was stopped on the check wher
police informed the donors the mer
were acting without authority.
The men also visited the Japanese
Embassy, the Argentine Legation and
the Brazilian Embassy.

A thoroughgoing investigation of
prohibition conditions will be under
taken tomorrow by the House judiciary
committee, promising lively and pro-
tracted continuation of the controversy
that has been in progress for nearly
two months.
While this committee made prepara-
lions, the $4,000 900 appropriation for
the Prohibition Bureau was left undis-

committee today In reporting to the
Senate the annual supply measure for

Senator Harris, Democrat, Georgia,

how much.
