AMERICAN NAVAL BILL
PRESIDENT COOLIDGE ATTACKED. (Rec. 7.20 p.m.) Washington, May 15. Representative Black attacked the future of President Coolidge to force action in the Senate on the Naval Bill. He said that under the spur of pacifists the Naval Affairs Committee forgot the President’s big naval plan, forgot the country and ran away with a 17-ship Bill. He urged that immediate appropriations be made to build three fleet submarines which had been previously authorized. He added: “If they do not do that the Republican Party and this administration are exactly 100 per cent, rot in the naval question.”—Australian Press Association.
