May 4. Steamship ownerw an. I striking marine workers at this port maneuvers for advantage Wednesday the fourth day of the walkout while their rrpr(?pniatives corvferred with federal nflidal in Washington in an effort to bring about .a Battlement cf the wage controversy. Managing operators of shipping loard vessels met-ting here drew up campaign plans fur the rtrlko and named a committee to act as a hoard of strategy. Theso operators decided, among other thing, to har union delegates from their ships and from docks where such ships are berthed. Tho rules also provided that no men werf to be employed on ship not in actual operation, and that crews wer? (; be signed on vessels only when they ar ready to sail. L'nion leaders late Wednesday asserted that they had sm reeded in getting three steamship Jines operating coastwise nnd trans-Atlantic ffhlps to sign a year's agreement at tho union scale cf wages and working conditions.

The marine engineers also claim--d to have received assurances from harbor and tugboat engineers that they would not dock a vessel manned by non-union crews. The United States mail ship company's steamer Potomac, which was to have sailed Tuesday for Danzig, Wednesday was still at her dock, l'nion leaders asserted she was without a crew. Officials of the steamship line on the other hand, said she was held because of delayed arrival of a number of passengers from the west.

MYSTERY SHROUDS THE REMOVAL OF WINE FROM GZALO'S Only Six Rarrels of 1,300 GalIon Supply Left When Officers Return. A '71o, owner of a soft drink establishment at 1911 S. Franklin st.. is to be arraigned in federal court in Indianapolis Saturday on a charge of violation of the Volstead act. Czalo's arraignment on the above charge follows hi.s indictment by the grand jury which occurred recently. Czalo's place has been the scene of numerous raids by both the local police and the federal prohibition enforcement officers during the past year. According to Information which leaked out Wednesday, Czalo must tell Federal Judge Anderson by what authority and for what reasons he kept nearly 1,500 gallons of home made wine at his residence. This 1,500 gallons of wine wa discovered by Asst. Chief Cassidy and a detail of local police officer about a month a?ro when they raided the Czalo place.

On opening the trap door they discovered a stairway leading down to the wine cellar. They proceeded with their search which resulted in their finding the 1.300 gallons of home made wine, carefully stored in severaly barrels in one corner of the "subway stall." According to Cassidy, the local police station upon making their discovery had not authority to act, as the state law mys that a person may manufacture wine for his own use, but after leaving orders with Czalo, Cassidy Immediately notified the federal prohibition enforcement officials at Indianapolis of their discovery. The federal officers then wired authority to the local officers to proceed to seal up the barrels of wine found at the Czalo place and that their agnts would be in the city in a few days to take charge of the case. Cassidy and his detail once moro visited the Czalo residence and the 1.300 gallons of wine were carcfullly sealed and sp-ecific instructions were left wth Czalo that he should not dispose of any of the sealed barrels. About two week3 aco. the federal officers arrived in South Rend and together with Cassidy and his detail visited the "wine cellar." This- time, however, they discovered that nearly nil of the 1,500 gallons of wine had disappeared and Czalo was unable to acoount for the disappearance. The federal men did not place him under arrest at that time, but they did take notice of the facts of the case and these facts were presented at tho last session of the grand jury.

I ricultural situation was regarded as probably by some treasury officials who commented on the action of the New York reserve bank in lowering the rate on commercial paper from seven to six per cent. Coming after the recent reduction from seven per cent to six per cent by the Posten reserve bank, the action of the New York bank was considered as Indicating a gradual reduction of rates on commercial paper in other districts in the direction of a uniform six iur cent rate throughout the country. At present the only reserve districts maintaing the seven percent rate are- Chicago, Minneapolis. Atlanta and Dallas.

Defer Aetion Lookinrr Towards Invitation to World Powers to Parle v. REPORT IS FAVORABLE Committee Decision Provides for Huge Expenditure for Maritime Protection. Iv Associated Press: WASHINGTON. May 4. Administration forces won the first skirmish Wednesday in the impending senate fight over naval disarmament. Guided by the expressed wishes of Pres't Harding, the senate naval committee refused fo incorporate In the annual naval appropriation measure the proposal of Sen Borah, republican. Idaho, authorizing and requesting the chief executive to invite Great Eritain and Japan to send representatives to a disarmament conference here. Pefore the committee acted. Sen. Borah had given notice of the fight to come by introducing his proposal in the senite and moving to suspend the rub s to make it in order. Sen. Pomerere. democrat. Ohio, also gave formal notice that he intended to present a disarmament amendment to the naval bill in the senate. His amendment would authorize the president to delay the building program six months while an effort was being made to arrange a conference between the United States. Great Britain and Japan. Should an agreement to limit construction bo reached by the three countries, the president might suspend the building program in whole or in part. It is understood that 'administration leaders in both the senate and house plan to delay action on any propmls for international disarmament became of the desire of the president not to have this eiuestion initiated in congress in the present state of international relations. As favorably reported Wednesday by the naval committee, the annual naval bill, which failed' at the last session, provides not only funds for continuing ' construction on the uncompleted 191 program, but also for a personnel of 20.000 in excess of the 100.000 proposed by the house. It also carries funds for beginning wrk on various naval bases on the Pacific coast. The committee increased the house total of $096.000,000 to $496.500,000. or the same figure that was in the bill as it failed in the senate last March.
