ASK PARLEY TO FIX NEUTRALS' RIGHTS ON SEAS Borah Charges Great Britain’s Stand May Result in Naval Building Race. SENATE Continues debate on cruiser construction bill. Public land committee takes up Teton national park bill. Military affairs committee considers calendar bill. HOUSE Considers private calendar bills. Merchant Marine committee hearing on radio. Ways and means committee hearing on tariff revision. BY PAUL R. MALLON United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.—Senator Borah’s frank discussion of relations with Great Britain in his senate speech has resulted in a general agreement today among leaders to include in the pending cruiser bill his amendment authorizing the President to call an international conference for defining the neutral rights of nations on the high seas. The amendment will be adopted. The chairman of the foreign relations committee astounded the senate late Thursday with the statement that unless some agreement is reached protecting the rights of neutrals in ocean commerce there will be a real naval race with Great Britain. Sees Cataclysm Ahead "I can see nothing for the future in that event save a super-human burden of taxation upon the people and perhaps another cataclysm like that of 1914,” Borah told the senate. Advocates of the naval bill agreed with Borah’s conclusion and were ready immediately to accept his amendment although Borah is opposed to the bill. The provision merely would express the sense of congress that some definition of a neutral nation’s right to carry anything but arms and ammunitions in war times should be guaranteed by international agreement. Need for Big Navy He recollected difficulties the United States had in the late World war when Britain declared “nearly everything in the human imagination as contraband.” He read British books indicating Great Britain was planning to embark on a policy of disregarding neutral shipping rights in war times. In such a case, Borah said, the United States would need more than the fifteen cruisers provided in the pending bill. A big navy would have to be constructed to protect our commerce, he argued. STATE HOSPITAL SOUGHT Tubercular Institution Asked in Bill; to Cost $510,000. An appropriation of $510,000 to erect a second state hospital for tuberculosis patients, and providing that this institution be located in southern Indiana is asked in a bill to be introduced by Representative Fabius Gwin of Shoal. The bill provides that SIO,OOO will be spent for the site, and the remaining $500,000 will be used to erect a 200-bed hospital to be located somewhere in the southern third of the state, where according to Gwin, 50 per cent of the state’s tuberculars live. Anti-tuberculosis associations and the Indiana Federation of Women’s clubs are supporting the bill. REGISTER AS LOBBYISTS Four More Organizations File for Representation.
