STINSON 10 TEL OF NAVAL TREATY Senate Naval Committee Will| Question Secretary Adams About Cruisers. By the Associated Press The Senate foreign relations com- mittee will begin its hearings on the London naval treaty next Monday with Secretary Stimson, chief delegate to the recent conference, explaining its provi- sions and the events lead to the agreement. On the following day, the Senate naval committee plans to institute hearings intended to ascertain the views of ranking officials of the Navy De- partment on the big cruiser clauses of the pact. Chairman Hale believes they represent & departure from established American _principles. ‘Thus, the Senate early in the week will be officially embarked upon its dis- cussion of the treaty. which administra- tion leaders are confident will lead after a short time to its ratification. Few Senators have pronounced a definite attitude toward the pact. Chair- man Borah of the foreign relations committee, has given it his conditional | approval and it has the support of | Senators Robinson of Arkansas, the Democratic leader, and Reed, Repub- 'lican, of Pennsylvania, who were mem- $ Better Type Millinery Hats for dress, suits and hair, baku, ballibuntl, lace and sports.

C., bers of the delegation and hold places on _the committee. The naval committee plans to call Secretary Adams, who was also & mem- ber of the delegation, as its first wit- ness. It is possible, however, that he will be unable to appear on Tuesday s he may be summoned before the foreign relations committee at that time. Hale believes that the treaty involves a disregard of the American policy of building up the fleet of 10,000-ton 8- inch-gun cruisers. Congress has au- thorized the construction of 23 vessels of this type, whereas the past would limit the United States to 18. The House appropriation committee | late yesterday struck from its report on | the '$377,036,000 naval appropriations | bill statements predicting economies to be achieved as a result of the treaty. For passages praising the work of the American delegates and estimating fu- ture savings, it substituted a statement that “the committee did not undertake Please Observe These Rules to pass upon ibilities that migh! flow therefrom in such a way as to in- dicate commitments.” It was explained that this action was taken because the committee felt it would be premature and out of order to discuss savings to come from treaty in advance of the Senate's action on the pact.
