Sam Stegg of Manila, P. 1, “ds the most Godless city in the world,” and he adds: “I have been to Shanghai and Paris, too.” The fault lies not in flaming youth, Said Mr. Stegg, attending the Chicago Methodist church camp meeting, but with citizens, “in their foolish, fat forties.” “Even in this wicked city,” he said, “40 per cent of the high school girls disapprove of petting. That is better than they did in my day—all of 30 per cent better.” CHARGES HOOVER HTH AFFRONTING ANERCAN PEOPLE Senator Moses Says -President Declined to Cooperate With Senate in Treaty Matter ° Washington, July 18.—(#)—The blunt statement that President Hoover and Secretary Stimson “seriously af- fronted” the representatives of the American people in refusing them the Private treaty documents, was made in the senate today by Senator Moses (Rep., N. H.), during an assault on the London naval agreement. ‘The New Englander said the ‘exec- utive, without right but with a power which was brusquely exercised, de- clined to cooperate with the senate as the constitution provides,” and that Mr. Stimson had taken an atti- tude of “superciliousness much more befitting ‘Washington home).” “Thus,” he said “being denied the information which would rightfully be in our possession and being under Pressuré hitherto unequaled in an at- tempt to force the senate to do the executive bidding, and being har- assed by long hours in the heat of an intolerable Washington, I'am seek- ing to express my resentment and my resistance to forcible feeding in the park.” Saying the “pitiful thing about this treaty is that so few people know anything about it anda that so many people care nothing about,” Senator Moses insisted it was the “United States which made all the material Says British Rule “As @ consequence,” he added, “we now find ourselves so: limited in our freedom of action in naval construc- tion that we can provide ourselves only with that size of fleet made up of that type of vessel which the Brit- ish admirality permits us to have.” He declared there was no method of dealing with the London pact ade- quately “except through naked re- jection of it.” Opponents of the'treaty determined today they would enter no agreement to Umit debate and the leaders of the overwhelming majority behind the Pact replied they would keep the senate in session tonight in an at- tempt to exhaust the discussion. Treaty foes conferred and com- municated their decision to the rest- less senate leaders as Serator Moses, carried forward his attack. Members of the opposition insisted no filibuster would be attempted. Senator Watson, the Republican leader, already has called their tac- tics “time-killing.” There were some predictions the debate might end sooner than. expected as a result of today’s developments. Some even believed a vote on the pact might be reached late tonight or tomorrow, all treaty advo- cates have only asked that limitation of debate be started next Tuesday. Senator Watson privately notified the opposition the senate would meet tonight. He indicated the session would be carried on until 10:30 or 11 o'clock.
