SENATE 1S OPPOSED T0 SHIPPING PLAN Objects to Abrogating Commer- cial Treaties by Congress ‘Washington, Dee. 27.—~Administra- tlon leaders in the senate, although generally favorable to abrogation of the score of commercial treaties held to imposed restrictlons upon Ameri- can shipping now indicates that they would oppose the two shipping bill amendments proposed by Senator McKellar, democrat, Tennessee, to bring about denunciation of the facts by direct action of congress. Senator Jones, republican, Wash- fngton, who is in charge of the ship- ping bill, recalled his recent decla- ration in the senate that had abroga- tion of the treaties been brought about as directed by the merchant marine act of 1920, the shipping legis- lation now before the senate probably would not have been necessary. “Both Presidents Wilson and Hard- ing, after consultation with the state department, held however that the treaties cannot properly be abrogaf- ed,” he added. “In view of that, I can- not believe this is the time or that the pending shipping bill is the me- dium to bring about such abroga- tion." Considerable democratic support, however, is expected to be given the| McKellar amendment—one of which would bring about the abrogation in entirety of commercial treaties with 21 countries through the unusual course of direct notification by con- gress to the governments concerned. The other amendment would obtain abrogation in the same manner of the one concluded betWeen the United States and Great Britain in 1815 as the result of the war of 1812, CHURCH IS BURNED St. Thomas d'Alfred, at Fasset Is Tenth Canadian Institution to Be Destroyed. 27.—The tenth fire in a Canadian Catholic institution this year was reported yesterday when the parish church of St. Thomas d'Alfred, at Tassett, was destroyed. Unlike several of the other fires, notably the one which destroyed the Church of Notre Dame de la Recouv- rance, Friday, there was no evidence of incendiarism. As a result of the blaze, some -insurance companies have announce they will no longer underwrite Catholic institutions, and .will refuse to renew policies that lapse. Others have raised rates to a point many churches cannot afford. ‘Many Catholics were nervous dur- ing Christmas services and in some places this fear was reflected in a slim attendance at mass. All churches here were carefully guarded, as were those in Quebec. It was rumored the pastor of St. Patrick's here had re- ceive notice the building would be burned Christmas eve. So far this year church fires have done $4,260,000 damage in the Prov- ince of Quebec. Fire Marshal La- cance is beginning an investigation of the Friday blaze and is trying to find a woman who telephoned the Notre Dame presbytery early the evening before to inquire if the church had been burned down yet. Montreal, Dec. Notre Dame CROWD IN BED WINS DIVORCE.
