WALSH REVEALS
 GUAM MAY GET
 FUND FOR WORK
Naval Base Hem 10 Which Japan Objected May
 Yet Be Available

WASHINGTON, March l6.-Sen- ator David I. Walsh, Chairman Of the Senate Committee on Naval Affairs, today indicated that while the $5 ,000, ,0G0 naval base for Guam will not be restored to the Maya appropriations bill, an equal amount may be made available for a rivers and harbors project on the island.
 The Senator disclosed this after having had a White House confer ence with President Roosevelt.
 The President, he said, had no objection to the elimination of the $5,000,00 item for harbor develop ment at Guam, and added: The President thinks the same item is more appropriate in the Rivers and Harbors bill and he probably will recommend that be done.'
 Walsh said he agreed this will take any military aspect off the proposed work on the island which is about 1,200 miles distant from Japan.
