HTSU.S SLENGE ON SLVERPRES Pittman Avers Leadership in Situation Will Go to Other Countries. Senator Key Pittman, Democrat, of Nevada, chairman of the Foreign Re- lations Subcommittee, which has been investigating the depression in silver prices and commercial relations with China, indicated yesterday that some country other than the United States may call an international conference on_the silver situation. Senator Pittman made it plain he be- lieves Presidenf Hoover is not taking steps to call an international confer- ence such as he was requested to. He cited the opposition to a conference on the ground it might take up debts and other matters and sald he saw no justi- fication “for this timidity.” He men- | tioned Canada and China as countries that might call a conference. The Nevada Senator will sail from Seattle May 16 for China to make fur- ther studies of the depressed condi- tion of trade with China and remedies therefor. This will include a study of the silver problem. He will also make studies in Japan. Up to President.

He point- ed out this would obviate any objec- tion to an international conference on the score of enlargement of the pro- gram to include debt settlements and other subjects. Sees No Dangers. Referring to the attitude of the ad- ministration as to the pi d con- ference and the opposition from cer- tain quarters, Senator Pittman sald: “Personally, I cannot see any sound justification for this timidity. If the| President invited the governments of | the world to a conference, as requested | in the Senate resolution, he could| properly and justifiably decline to ex- tend the scope of the inquiry. ‘There is hardly a doubt that sub- te, was |stantially all t's invitation posed changes in the ——— BENEFIT DANCE TUESDAY Curley Club Will Apply Proceeds to Scholarship Fund. ‘The annual Spring dance of the Cur- ley Club will be held Tuesday evening in the National Press Club Auditorium.
