B. Moses & Sons SINCE 1861—SIXTY-EIGHT YEARS OF PUBLIC CONFIDENCE called, the committee inquiring into Shearer's activities at the 1927 Geneva naval conference prepared also to push its work. Members were called into conference today by Chairman Short- ridge and next weck will resume their hearings with first emphasis laid on the source of the alleged British document, presented by Shearer, purporting to show the existence of a gigantic espion- age system in this country. It also plans to inquire further into the rela- tions between Shearer and his ship- builder employers, Recessed Due to Visit. ‘This inquiry was recessed on the eve of its pyobing into so-called British ac- tivity in this country because of the visit of Prime Minister Macdonald. ._ Charged with a general survey of the situation, the lobby committee also is to delve into naval affairs, announce- ment having been made that ace societies and others advocating reduced armament, as well as “big Navy” pro- ponents would be summoned. ‘The inquiry will get under way, however, fired by the same torch that set off the 1913 investigation.” ‘The inquisitors will seek to determine at the outset whether the same condi- ! tions prevail now as when President Wilson said the public sheuld be re- lieved from this “intolerable burden.” Subpoenas Awaited. ‘The first witness to be called will be named publicly only after the subpoenas have been served. Chairman Caraway intends to summon early in the hear- ings, however, Joseph R. Grundy, rep- resentative of the American Tariff League, and William Burgess of Tren- ton, N.
