Compromise Effort On Disarmament Battles in Congress
Washington June 5 Differences between Senate and House over the naval disarmament clause will dominate this week as conferees seek a compromise. The House resolution echoes President Harding’s call for near disarmament but rejects unilateral disarmament while limiting talks to naval arms and the Borah amendment’s scope. The Senate resists weakening its amendment and aims to include Britain and Japan in discussions. The week also focuses on army sizing debates and a pending peace move with the central powers, along with the Volstead bill and a new public welfare department proposal.
