Chamber- lain of Sensational Battles De- clared Executive. The Senate naval committee in- vestigating _ dismissal after court- martial of Capt. Edmund G. Chambe: tlain, San Antonio, Texas, Marine Corps aviator, whose story of a sen- sational battle with German planes on the western front led to his return to private life, closed its doors to the press yesterday soon after the in- quiry started. “This is a naval matter,” Chairman Ball stated, “and until it is establish- ed that the Navy treated this captain right -1 am of the opinion that the investigation should be conducted in executive session in accordance with custom.” Maj. Seth Willams, U. S. M. C, counsel for Chamberlain, stated at the outset that investigation had con- vinced him of the truth of Capt. Chamberlain’s claims that while on a furlough visit to a British sector in July. 1918, he participated in an air battle in which he brought down five German planes, damaged two others and accomplished other umusual feats. Maj. Williams charged that Capt. Chamberlain had been accorded no opportunity to gather evidence to substantiate his story. the denial of which by British officers, he said, led Admiral William 8. Sims, then :ommander-in-chief of American naval forces in Dritish watevs, to order an inquiry. 3 Maj. Williams said Capt. A. N. Proctor, U. S. N. was detailed to conduct a preliminary inquiry and became convinced that Capt. Cham- berlain was guilty of falsehood, de- ciding to recommend that testimony by the defense be dispensed with. At this point the committee closed its doors. 75 D. C. BOY SCOUTS HELP OPEN CAMP ROOSEVELT The Senate. BY G. GOULD LINGOLN. Final agreement on the peace resolution to put an end to the technical state of war between the United ftates and Germany and Austria mav be reached by the conferees of the Senate and House this week. With the return to Washington of Senator Lodge, chairmun of the conference com- mittee, sessions of the committee will be resumed and every effort made, it is said, to bring about a speedy conclusion of peace by resolution. The unfinished busin:ss of the Senate is the Frelinghuysen bill for the establishment of season freight Tates on coal, so us 1o stimulate buying and production in the spring and summer month: It is understood that u scricus attempt will be made to cxpedite the passage of lggislation revising the tax laws. Republican leaders are becoming aroused over de- mands reaching them from ail parts of the country for Such legislation, so that the people and business may know what to e bect in_the way of taxation. Senator Watson of Indiana, a re- bublican member of the financ: committee, sounded a not» warning in the Senate lust v and it is said that a confere (he,re&:bllcnn leaders will be | ecarly this week to determine wi sh;rl be done. i h: Senate is compelled to wait for the House to initiate tax iegis- lation. At the outset of the sea- sion, the House leaders insist upon taking up the tariff bill be- orc the tux bill. But insteal of having the bill ready for repurt to the House by May 1, as they promised, the bill will scarcely reach the House before July 1. The Scnate finance committee re- ported out the soldiers’ adjustment compensation bill last weck, and {t 18 how on the calendar, subject o ang called up for consideration at any time. Chairman Penrose (lnf the finance committee intro- duced the administration bill for the refunding of the foreign loans of this country, and hearing on the measure are to begin Wednesday. Pith Seerctary Mellon of the Treasury as the first witness, prob- Senate District committee four important District bills on the calendar during the week. They are the Ball bill to extend the life of the Ball rent act until May 1922; the Ball street railway merger bill, the Capper compulsory education bill and the Ball bill amending the loan shark law so that pawnbrok- ers may charge 2 per cent a month in the District Instead of 1 per cent. Under existing law the pawnbrokers have ceased to do business in the District, but have moved across the Potomac river to Virginia, where residents of the District are compelled to pay 3 per cent a month on loans. The Army appropriation bill, car- rying the two-hundred-thousand- dollar item for the increased wa- ter supply of the District, has been sent to the President for his approval. The Norris amendment, providing an additional $200.000 to begin work on the Great Falls wa- terpower project, failed, but Sen- ator Norris plans to offer a sep- arate bill for this project, and members of the Senate District com- mittee have promised to see that it is given consideration. Senator Sterling, chairman of the civil service committee, is ex- pected to make plans, this week for work on drafting a bill for the reclassification of government em- ployes. Hearings on the bill have been concluded. The Senate has ordered an in- quiry by the Senate committee on education and labor into the in- dustrial disturbances in the coal flelds in West Virginia.

This is going to be an important week with regard to District legis- lation. Tuesday the special sub- committee of the House District committee, which has been consid- ering street railway legislation, is to decide on what measure it will recommend to the full District committee. Wednesday the full committee will meet to receive and discuss that report. The majority of the committce frankly say that they have heard all the testimony they want to, and that there is no need for further delay in making o a decision what legislation they will bring before the House for re- lief of the local traffic problem. ‘Tomorrow, what is known as the “denatured Volstead bill,” or more commonly “the beer bill," will be passed by the House. Representa- tive Volstead Introduced u bill for the purpose of checkmating the Palmer decision. Opposition to the Volstead bill developed on the ground that it contained 100 many legislative povisions that had bet- ter be left to departmental regu- lation. Chairman Campbell of the rules committee then introduced the bill which House Leader Mon- dell says will be, passed tomorrow. By unanimous consent tomorrow is suspension day. The Dowell road bill will also be passed, House leaders say. This carries no appropriation, but legis- lative provisions perfecting the federal roads program. It carries provisions in regard to mainte- nance as recommended by Presi- dent Harding in his message to Congress. Tuesday the House expects to dispose of the canference report on the naval appropriation bill. Calendar Wednesday will be de- voted to several bills reported from the committec on agriculture. Thursday, under a special rul several bills from the military af- rs committee will be taken up. The principal of these is for dis- posing of certain pieces of r estate or to acquire complete title thereto. When the Army appro priation bill was up several of these real estate transactions were under consideration and it was decided to e no action upon them until Congress had invest gated further. . piEriday will be devoted to claim 1s.

The House military affairs com- mittee favorably reported a bill, fathered by Chairman Kahn, to prevent the extension of 14th street and a street car line thereon through the Walter Reed Hospital reservation. The post office committee, by a vote of 11 to 1, tabled the Long- worth resolution postponing the increase in the second-class postal rates effective July 1.

The election of Gompers brought to a close one of the hottest political campaigns ever waged in the history of organized labor. The campaigning had gone on relentlessly since the convention opened, and at times pro- ceedings on the floor of the conven- tion were interrupted by the election- eering. - William J.

The iron workers contended that ih certain cases the unloading of iron from wagons and Tobin took exception to this. The convention settled it by ferring it to a conference at In. dianapolis, with provision for re- forring it to three members of the executive council if the conference should fail. Recommendations of the executive council that the theatrical stage em- ployes should not assume work of building trades in the motion picture industry were adopted, with provision that if the conference did not settle the dispute independently within fif- teen days the recommendations of the committee would be made ef- fective. % Other jurisdictional disputes re- ferred to conference for settlement included that of the machinists with the carpenters and plumbers. The oil field, gas well and refinery work- ers were directed to discontinue ju- risdiction over the boilermakers and iron ship builders. The steam and operating engineers were told that Chicago fire engineers properly were under jurisdiction of the fire fighters. The factional dispute of the oil field workers was placed again in the hands_ of Secretary Morrison and Vice President -William Green, who were ‘to_continue efforts to bring about a settlement. A resolution dealing with gold and finance was referred to the executive committee.
