SENATOR MORROW | TO CONFER SOON
 WITH STIMSON
Will Describe Details of Trip to Europe and Naval Controversy Between France and Italy
By LYLE Q. WILSON

Washington, May 7-(UP)-Sen& ator Dwight w. Morrow, repn., N. J., who recently represented the United States in efforts to end naval competition between France and Italy, is expected here soon to con fer with Secretary of State Stimson. Additional first-hand information on European naval problems will be available within a fortnight wirh arrival of Hugh s. Gibson, ambas- sador to Belgium.
 Coincident with Morrow's return from European vacation, in which he became Stimson's emergency emissary in conversations with Arthur Henderson, British foreign secretary, the French admiralty an- nounced 50,0O0-ton naval con struction program which is to be supplemented with further estimates in July.
 Morrow's efforts failed in behalf of an Anglo-French-Italian naval agreement to supplement and com plete the 1880 London naval treaty among Great Britain, Japan and the United States. After unofficial agreement on limitations basis. France unexpectedly repudiated the program soon after European chan cellories were startled by announces ment of customs Union between Germany and Austria.
 French suspicious of an eventual political union of those German speaking peoples apparently stopped progress toward continental naval limitation for the being. But tho French admiralty's partial 1931-32 program as reported here does not very from the program which would 1,a and Henderson succeeded in ob- taining Franco-Italian agreement.
 American naval experts were most interested in the project for 23. 333-ton craft described by French authorities as a cruiser, but appar- ently better defined as battle cruiser. This vessel is to include the unusual electric welded construction inaugurated in the German Ersaiz Preussen, and the weight thus saved may be devoted to Armor, arma- ment or to increased speed.
 American naval research now Is being directed toward welded con- struction, and 1t is in restricted use in the latest American 10,00-ton cruiser plans.
 What interests the American navy is that France contemplates a capi- tai ship of any kind. French faith has rested heretofore on submarines and aircraft. British aversion to submarines apparently accounts for the absence of estimates for such craft in the 1931-32 French pro- gram. But the explanation of the French return to capital ship con- struction is more obscure.
 Tonnage of the proposed battle cruiser gains added interest from the fact that Britain hopes event ually to persuade the United States to abandon the 30,000-ton and larg- CT modern capital ship in favor of 25,0O0-ton craft.

Bill to Retire
 Teachers Pleases
(Continued from Page 1)

they reach the age or time limit nec- essary for them to obtain a pension. Yearly many vacancies occur when teachers resign to marry.
 Another feature of the bill which is considered exceptionally good is q provision allowing the heirs of any deceased teacher to claim the money paid in by the deceased. This. of course, is in the event the teacher dies before he or she has been au- tomatically retired.
 The bill as whole is designed to care for those who pay into the fund but who derive no benefit from 1t. Therefore. the measure is considered one making the teachers retirement system a more equitable one.
 The teachers of the state are now awaiting the report of the committee on appropriations on their bill rais- ing the minimum yearly pension for teachers to $500. At the present time the minimum pension is $350. Action on the measure is expected in the next few days.

NEW YORK, Dec. 16 QN.So.
The continued decline in the
listed bond market completely
overshadowed yesterdays feeble
upturn in stocks and the outlook
for a cessation of liquidation in
securities remains clouded.
An interesting study Of the
current position of the market
has been developed by a proml'
nent statistical organization which
points out that the present bear
market is now in its sixth ana
probably final stage.
Measured by the Dow-Jones
industrial averages, this record
breaking bear market has covered
in excess of 800 points. THIS
makes insignificant by compar1-
son the 1019.1921 bear market
which showed a total decline OF
Sc points and the 1912-1914 bear
market which showed a decline
of Al points in the industrial av-
erages.
The low of the present decline,
reached yesterday at 1880, COM
pares with lows of $500 made on
August "a, 1921, and 53.17 made
December "a, 1914. In other
words, the present price level for
industrial stocks is approximately
IL points above the 1921 low and
% points above the 1914 low.
