ENORMOUS COST DEPLORED Author of Measure Advocates SHow. Ing Example of Churchill. Peaceful Cse of Funds Preferred. WASHIXGTOX. Dec. 2. The House for hours today debated the Hensley resolution to commit the United States to the Winston Churchill plan for an International year's holiday In naval construction and tonight the advo catea of the project predicted passage of the resolution In the House by Frl day. Consideration will be resumed Thursday with both sides, the advo cates far outnumbering the opponents. prepared to continue the debate. The idea of suspending naval con struction for a year, first proposed to the British parliament by the first lord of the admiralty, has since been commended by the leaders of all par ties In the American Congress and by the President. Majority Leader Under wood said on the floor of the House today the resolution probably would 1e passed unanimously. Mara Say Great Reveanea. Representative Hensley, of Missouri. author of the measure, in urging its adoption, pointed out that only t per cent of the United States revenues is devoted to the benefit of agriculture while 60 per cent goes to defray the cost of past wars and to prepare for future wars. He declared that all over the country there was going up the cry of high cost of living, while enormous expenditures were being made for military and navy purposes. Representative Foster, of Illinois, said the time had come when the United States should take the lead of all the world's nations in the move ment for peace to lift the burdens from the people and to leave the settlement of differences to arbitration. Representative Moore, of Pennsyl vania, insisted the proposed action would Inject the spirit of no battle ships Into consideration of the Navy department's recommendation for the construction of two battleships this year. Mr. Hensley replied his provi sion was a proposition distinct from the navy proposition. Relative Strength t ndUtnrned. Representative Decker, of Missouri, declared the United States built battle ships "because, forsooth, our neigh bors build them." and suggested the mon,ey expended for battleships could well be spent to prevent devastation of floods and to build better school houses and roads. He suggested a years naval holiady and it might be extended indefinitely. Representative Hobson, of Alabama, said he - preferred the upbuilding of the Atlantic fleet as a means of at taining a world equilibrium and an assurance of peace. Representative Bartholdt, of Mis souri, pointed out that with an Inter national agreement for a year's naval holiday the relative strength at the end of the year would be the same among nations and that meantime the United States would save I50.000.0u0, Britain 160,000.000 and Germany $30,-00,000.

Fleeing over the desert several thou sand people, including some of the richest families In Northern Mexico, who deserted Chihuahua City in fear of a rebel attack, were reported tonight to be nearlng the United States border. Among the refugees is Luis Terrazas, head of the wealthy Terrazas estate, who is said to have with him 5.000.000 pesos which he withdrew from the Chihuahua banks. Other wealthy fam ilies, including the Creels, are known to have left the city, and the caravan, composed also of women and children, is described as being more than a mile long. People Desaaad Snrrender. The facts about the downfall of the Huerta power In the city, as trans mitted by Governor Moye. were: For almost three weeks Chihuahua, with Its 36.000, citizens, had been cut off from commnnicatlon; the food sup plies were steadily decreasing and many deaths resulted from Illness caused by semi-starvation. Rumors of the proposed attack on the city, ex aggerated by reports that the rebels had been supplied with ammunition from the United States and that the city was to be bombarded, increased the anxiety. A citizens' committee was finally ap pointed to call on General Mercado and demand that he surrender to the reoels, as resistance would be hopeless. Af'.or a delay and in the absence of eny communication with Mexico City. Gen eral Mercado decided to flee. Those vho wished to go received notice to gather their possessions. The Pacific commission which was selected at General Mercado's sugges tion proposed to General Villa that all non-combatants who sought safety by fleeing to the border be permitted to ro without being fired on. and that alt federals, including 200 soldiers left on police duty In Chihuahua City, be par doned. It also asked clemency for fed eral officials, but it i's thought the fed eral Generals will seek safety by cross ing the border Into the United States, possibly near Ojinaga. The peace commission said that be fore leaving Chihuahua the federals de stroyed all the postage and government revenue stamps, and that there existed practically no money In the city, and that 20D0 citizens had left with the troops, most of them being those who were rich and who feared harsh treat ment by the rebels. The commission started back, for Chihuahua tonight with General Vlllat assurance that people of all classes in the city, including the federal police, would be protected, and that he would dispatch troops to garrison thu place as soon as possible. Notwithstanding the action of the federals. General Villa, himself was preparing for departure southward. He said Chihuahua would be only a stop ping place on his southward march, and he was determined to proceed to Mexico City. Carlos A. Heberleln of Los Angeles, a mining engineer, accompanies the peace commissioners, who traveled in an automobile by way of Ojinaga.

William Funk, of Baltimore: "Resolved, that In the sense or this meeting President Wilson failed to rise to the subllmest heights of democ racy when he failed in .his message to Congress today to recommend the freedom of half the citizens of the United States today and probably half the citizens of the civilised world." Fear of bringing on a revolt that might give America a militant suffra gist organization today caused leaders In the association to abandon their ef forts to have adopted a new constitu tion reported by a revision committee appointed a year ago. Advocates of "state" rights" for state associations and opponents of a nroDosed budget system for raising the National organization's funds declined to accept the recommendations and finally thetflraft was referred back to the committee with Instructions that a compromise constitution to meet the view of all factions Be preparea.

Counsel for Aliens Contend Clients En titled to Eater America After Passing Island Inspectors. SAN FRANCISCO, Dec 2. Twenty- two Hindus seeking admission to this country from the Tallipplne Islands will know their standing before the law when Judge Dooilng, of the United States District Court, hands' down his decision on the final arguments sub mitted to him In their case here today. The case Is one In which the labor unions of California have shown much Interest, and Commissioner - General Caminettt. of the Federal Department of Immigration, has attended all the hearings. The department seeks to exclude tne Hindus on the ground they are likely to become public charges, and argued todsy that Its agents were the sole Judges of this Ikellhood. Counsel for the Hindus argued, first. that they had already been passed by inspectors of the department In the Philippines and carried with them cer tificates of admission; second, that there waa nothing in the statutes or the treaties of the United States Gov ernment to bar them, but that the De partment of Immigration by setting up arbitrary classes of their own as un desirables was usurping legislative functions. The only aliens barred by reason of race from this country, argued coun sel for the Hindus, are the Chinese, who are excluded under a statute spe cifically naming them, and the Japa nese under the so-called "gentlemen's agreement" TYING CLAUSE DEFENDED SHOE MACHINERY CONTENDS IT WAS W ITHIN RIGHTS. I any Hnlaa Maaafactarer Ha Right ! Protect Property aad Servre Beat Honest Rerara. BOSTON. Dec. 2. The doctrine laid down by the United States Supreme Court In Its Interpretation of the Sher. man anti-trust act In the "mimeograph case," was the basis of the defense set up today by the United Shoe Machinery Company, at the resumption of the dis solution proceedings Instituted by the Government. Federal officials allege the company to be an unlawful monop oly within the provisions of the act. As explained by Charles F. Choate. counsel for the defense, the doctrine of the Supreme Court, which he ulted. is nothing more than the common law right of a manufacturer to protect his property and to get as good a return for It in the market as he honestly may. Discussing the so-called "tying clauses," which are included in leases of the company's machines, counsel contended that the royalty of two to four cents a pair on shoes made on their machines would not provide a suitable return unless the machinery was properly used. It waa to Insure Its proper use that the tying clauses were Inserted In the leases to manu facturers, he said. These clauses, which require shoe manufacturers to use certain machines together, con stitute one of the means by which an unlawful monopoly was created by the company, according to the contention of the Government.

The question will come up again at tomorrow's meeting. The first fatality of the strike, which-) was started Sunday midnight, occurred today when a crowd Interfered with an Ice wagon In charge of six men on. whom special powers had been con ferred.

The special officers were taken to police headquarters, but were released on their own recognizance. Was-oa Owner FIrea oa Crowd. ' Another crowd was fired on today by William Whorton, a negro, when he was attacked on a wagnn owned and driven by . himself. Jack Long, a teamster, was wounded in the right leg. Whorton was arrested. There were several other minor disorders, but no one was seriously Injured. The police made numerous arrests. Among those taken in custody today was Henry Friedman, a prominent labor and political leader and wealthy. He was charged with Interfering wltfh an officer. The cases of all the per sons arrested yesterday were con tinued in Police Court today until next Monday so the arresting officers could appear. A proposed parade of strikers did not materialize. Mayor Wallace, as soon as he heard of the plan. Issued a proc lamation ordering the police to stop any attempted demonstration. The po lice kept the crowd constantly on the move and did not give the parade a chance to form. According to employers of teamsters, more wagons were operating today than yesterday and there was little in terference. Thomaa J. Farrell, general organizer of the union, said, however, the men were holding firm and that more than 3000 men were still out. Food supplies still are plentiful, as retail merchants anticipated the strike and stocked up their stores liberally. The accumulated garbage is becoming a serious question. No garbage had been collected In the city since Satur day. Fifty business men with horses were sworn In as the citizens' cavalry to day. They volunteered to assist the mounted police. Thus far the regular police have been able to handle the situation without calling the business men's reserves, numbering more than TOO. who were sworn In Sunday night and Monday. Farrell Wants General Strike. Thomas J. Farrell late today ad dressed a mass meeting of the striking teamsters. . He declared he would ask that a general strike be called to pro test against the shooting of " five men today and the treatment of the strikers by the police. "If organized labor will got together and all stand together, we will put the city in darkness aa a protest against this slaughter on the streets," Mr. Far rell said. "The Governor and Mayor will be appealed - to for rightful pro tection, but If these executives do not insure us Justice, then I am sure It Is up to the laborer to get that Justice himself."
