FRENCH APPROVE ~ NAVAL PROGRAM Expenditure of $20,000,000 Up to 1935 Voted by Cham- ber of Deputies. By the Assoclated Press. PARIS, Jure 19.--France's naval construction pregram for 1931-32, en- tailing ‘the expenditure of $20,000,000 up to 1935, stood approved today, but a proposal to build a 23,000-ton super- cruiser to match Germany’s Deutsch- land rested in committee for further consideration. The Chamber of Deputies adopted by a vote of 410 to 168 a modified program Wednesday night slashing the proposed budget by $24,000,000. An amendment referring the capital ship question to a committee of naval experts was passed by a vote of 455 to 15. A Socialist motion to table the’entire matter was defeated by a vote of 391 to 196. Socialist Deputy Joseph Paul-Boncour, chairman of the Foreign Relations Committez, led the attack on the build- ing of powerful fighting vessels, urging the Deputies that France should not take the lead in naval armament on the eve of the 1932 disarmament confer- cnce, Minist:r of Marine Dumont cham- | pioned the larger appropriation with the statement that Prance must meet the challenge of Germany’s ‘“vestpocket battleship” in order to protect her colonial possessions. Smaller cruisers could not, cope with the Deutschland on account of its great cruising radius, he sald. ters in Guatemala have been fixed at $1.25 for orchestra seats and 8 cents for those in the gallery.
