~ AT THS S880 Efforts Will Be Made in Both ; ‘Houses to Get Action on i \e Pending Resolutions. * WASHINGTON, Feb. 7.—Sponsors @f legisiation looking to dis&rmament conferences predict that the pend- ing measures will be taken up on the floors of the House and Senate be- fore March 4. ‘ Senator Borah thinks the way 8 elearing up for the Senate to reach oe | ~ ‘his resolution proposing to Great Britain and Japan a cessation of building, but when he cannot say. “The resolution is on the calendar,” he said. “It has been held’ up on account of delay on the Emergency Tariff Bil. I think, however, that We shall be able to get the resolu- ion up in the Senate,” Chairman Porter of the House of Foreign Affairs Committee, which reported the Brooks resolution for a general disarmament conference, ex- pects to call it up under unanimons consent proceedings during the last three days of the session if the meas- Ure cannot be reached sooner, Disarmament will continue this week as the paramount subject be- fore the House Naval Affairs Com- mittee, which embarked several weeks go on hearings to “feel out” senti- ment. Republican Floor Leader Mon- dell, Chairman Towner of the Repub- Ucan caucus, and Representative Temple, Republican member of the Foreign Affairs Committee will tes- tify on the subject. All are under- stood to be in favor of disarmament Negotiations. Congressional sentiment is forea heavy reduction at once in the bud- geta,for the army and navy. As re- ported to the House these measures contain about one-half the appro- riations requested by the War and avy Departments. Determination to hold down the army to 175,000 men appears to be gufficiently strong to insure final Passage over President Wilson's veto of the joint resolution for that pur- pose. The House voted overwhelm- ingly Saturday night to override, and the Senate !s expected to take the pame action to-day or to-morrow. , — ‘AUTOS INJURE NINE, THREE SERIOUSLY Two Chauffeurs Flee, One After Running Down Gisl—Women Hurt as Car Upsets.

TOKIO, Feb, 7.—The mobilization of males between the dges of eighteen and forty has been proclaimed in Amur, according to despatches from Viadivostok. The reason for this step is not announced.

Semenoff, friend of the Japanese, last autumn, This army bas been concentrating recently morth of Viadivoastok, with the avowed purpose of driving the Japanese out ot Siberia. Further mobilization would indicate that the Moscow au- thorities have sent forward more mili- tary supplies over the Siberian Rail- goad, which they control.) > NANENT PARLEY VOTE 1 EXPECTED, ORE OUT W sett PURPOSES OF PULITZER Journalism Advanced at Colum- bia as Publisher Intended, Director of Class Says, Referring to the accomplishments of the Pulitzer School of Journalism in his annual report to Nicholas Mur- ray Butler, President of Columbia University, made public yesterday, Dr. J. W. Cunliffe, director of the school, says the public is beginning to realize the importance of having News obtained by educated and re- sponsible reporters, “The ascertainment of fact is be- coming more and more tho office of the modern newspaper rather than the guidance of opinion,” he says, “It is seldom an easy task, and the in- creasing complexity of eur civilization makes it more and, more difficult. “While it is the most immediate task of the school to give its gradu- ates a good start on their professional career, its ultimate duty extends far beyond this comparatively simple problem. It aims at giving them, along with competent technical train- ing, instruction in fundamentals which will enlarge their outlook and ripen their judgment. “Only thus can they be fitted, as they grow older and more expen- enced, to take advantage of such op- portunities as may be offered to them of assumiri more responsible and in- fluential positions in the newspaper world. In pursuing this couree the school undoubtedly hi the intentions of. Joseph Puiitsor whose ideas as to the curriculum were cxtraordinarily far-seeing and broad-minded. “The increase in the number of graduates caused some apprehension as to whether suitable places could be found for them, but this proved to be a groundless fear, as the appli cations for the services of graduates increased in still greater proportion and the average rate of pay, as com- jared with previous years, more than joubled. “Of the 115 students only thirty come from New York City. Bight are from New York State, outside of the city; eight from New Jersey, and Seven from Ohio. The others repre- set twenty-seven States and five foreign countries. “It is evident the constituency served by the school is national, rather than local, and that the policy, udopted in 1917, of facilitating col- legiate preparation away from New York City has had an encouraging response.” annual Alumni Day on Saturday, prin bronze Mayor Mitchel, a member of the class of 1899. the wall below the stone urns at the West end of Hamfton Hall, Amsterdam Avenue rf Bullard and President Butler will make addresses, | \ THE EVENING WORLD, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 1921.
