Since the renewal of cabi- net meetings the President has had them meet with him In the study room in the White House. Cantrel and John V. Brennan. Those The House military affairs commit- too has decided to ask Congress for authority to find out how Grover Cleveland Bergdoll, the wealthy Phil- adelphia draft dodger, escaped to Germany, the country he had refused to fight It proposes also to ferret out what influence enabled Bergdoll to sscure from the Treasury Depart- ment the $105,000 in gold, which he concealed in the woods, at a time last year when the supply was being conserv The more important thread to be followed. members said, was the abil- ity of the prisuner's lawycrs to ob- tain his release under guard for the purpose of proceeding to the end of 2 rainbow in the hills of Maryland to find and dig up his pot of gold. It was while he was out on the golden chase that Bergdoll, stopping over in Philadelphia to visit his mother, in- dcted with him, eluded his soldier guards and slipped away in the same automobile he had used many times for nighway speeding. Disarmament and the relative value of capital ships as compared with sub- marines and airplanes figured largely in the general House debate yesterday on the annual naval appropriation bill, which carries $695,000,000 and provides for a continuation of the naval building program and for re- duction of the enlisted strength of the Navy to 100,000 men. Representatives Britten, republican, Tllinois, and Padgett, democrat, Ten- nessee, ranking republican and demo- cratic members of the naval commit- tee, contended the Navy could not be| maintained properly on funds which Would be appropriated under the bill. Representative Kelley of Michigan. | chairman of the appropriations sub-| committee. which framed the bill, de- clared the building program started in 1916 should be completed, but Rep- resentative Connally, democrat, Texas, asserted the time was “ripe for a dis- ermament conference. Fees paid_to counsel employed by the various House committees investi-| gating war expenditures were criti- cised and defended in the House yes- terday. Chairman Ireland of the ac-| counts committee brought cheers from the democrats with a declaration that he had seen no “application of con-i crete results” from the investig=tions! and that his committee would un-| doubtedly have disapproved many of | the contracts for counsel had it known about them. Actuated, he said, by recent fatal accidents resulting from operation of | the Chicago, St. Paul and Minneapolis | air mail route, Representative New- | ton. republican, Minnesota, has intro- duced in the House a resolution re- questing the Post Office Department | for information as to the cause of the accidents. Charges that republican leaders in the House are seeking to forestall ac- tion on the packer regulation bill, al- ready passed by the Senate, were made on the floor yesterday by Repre- sentative Young, Texas, a demo- cratic member of the agriculture com- mittee, which reported the measure favorably. He declared the steering committee and_ other republicans in charge of the House legislative pro- gram were trying to prevent a vote at this session. “A majority of the House members favor the bill,” declared Mr. Young, “and we are going to demand a vote or it before March 4.” Purchase by the United States of all German cables and those of her South African end Pacific colonies was pro- posed in_a resolution introduced by Senator France, republican, Maryland. It was referred without discussion to| the foreign relations committee. ‘The resolution suggested $5,000,000,- 000 as the consideration to be credit- ed against the indemnity imposed | upon Germany. Senator France also ; proposed an international conference to fix Germany’s indemnity at $15,000,- l 000.000. The diplomatic appropriation bill as reported yesterday by the Senate for- eign relations committee carried a total of $10.400.000, as compared with the House total of $5,400.000 and es- timates of $12,000.000 submitted by the State Department.
