C Plans for promo tion of progressive sentiment and poli cies throughout the nation were made at concluding meetings of ''the two days' conclave of progressives called by Senator La Follette, republican of Wisconsin, and Representative Hud dleston, democrai of Alabama, under the auspices of the people's legislative service. Resolutions declaring for continua tion of the new progressive move ment, which is to be actively trans lated Into legislation through the bi partisan progressive bloc of congress, wero adopted. Resolutions adopted unanimously by the convention declared that the movement was "non-partlcan" and de signed primarily to promote progres sive legislation. Other resolutions called for 'extension of direct primary, Including abolishment of the electoral college and direct popular election of president and vice-president. Another resolution called upon President Hard ing to release all "free speech" pris oners. The conference declared, how ever, that it was impossible in a single meeting to formulate a complete legislative and economic programme. Senator William E. Borah of Idaho was elected as chairman of the exec utive committee of the progressive national group composed of both dem ocratic and republican legle'ators. LUSITANIA CARRIED NO ARMSJI TROOPS None of Liner's Load Consid ered Explosivo, According to Official Report. $8,826,000 SLATED FOR PACIFIC SLOPE Washington, D. C. Appropriations totaling $8,826,000 for reclamation projects in Pacific slope states were recommended to congress by Presi dent Harding In presenting the budget for the next fiscal year. These appropriations were divided by states as follews: Idaho, $2,000,000; Oregon, $1,400, 000; Washington, $1,357,000; Arizona, $430,000; California, $549,000; Nevada, $735,000; Utah, $45,000; Oregon and California jointly, $700,000; Nebraska and Wyoming, Jointly, $1,420,000. The budget for the fiscal year be ginning July 1, 1923, provided for ap propriations aggregating $3,078,940,331 for the operation of the federal gov ernment by President Harding. The total estimate Is $195,298,359 less than the appropriations already made for the current fiscal jear. This reduction was made possible, the pres ident said in a message accompanying the budget, by pursuing a policy em phasizing the "need of more rigid eco nomy in the expenditure of public funds." He took occasion at the same time, however, to warn congress that fur ther slashes would not be approved by the administration. New York. The Cunard liner Lusl tahla, sunk by a Gorman submarine In 1915 oft the Irish coast, carried neith er guns, troops nor explosives, but did carry 6400 cases of ammunition, the official report of the vessel's cargo made publio by Dudley Field Malone, collector of the port at the time, shows, according to a copyrighted story in the New York World. Tho Malone report, the newspaper laid, was made to Secretary of tho Treasury McAdoo. It was dated June 4, 1915, and was called for after the Gorman reply of May 28 to President Wilson's first Lusltania note of May 13 had set up the contention the Lusltania had been armed and that her rapid sinking was due, not to the I torpedo, but to the explosion of am-1 munition. Mr. Malone said he had determined to give out the text of the report be cause of still insistent appeals to him for Information regarding its contents. The report states that when the Lusltania sailed from New York, on May 1, 1915, on her last trip to Eng land, she did not have ajiy gum of any caliber or description on any deck, mounted or unmounted, masked or unmasked. If any individual reservists of any nationality sailed on the Lusltania on this trip they did so as Individuals, paying their own passage and receiv ing their own individual tickets. Referring to the question of the presence of explosives on the liner, the report said that the ammunition set forth as part of the cargo did not contain explosives within the Inter pretation of the statutes and regula tions as interpreted by the depart ment of commerce in the ruling pre viously quoted. old Struggle is ended Irish Constitution Is Approved By House of Lords. London. The centuries-old struggle between England and Ireland ended when the legislation giving the sanc tion of law to the new settlement with Ireland passed its final stages in the house of lords, which for generations has bitterly opposed any accommoda tion with Ireland. There now only remains royal as sent, a matter of formality, and every thing will be ready for tho new Irish government to come into existence with excellent omens in the expressed desire even of many of the "die hard" statesmen in England to give it every opportunity to succeed In Its work, The appointment of Timothy Healy as governor-general of the Irish free state Is recognized as an auspiolous event. Mr. Healy throughout his po litical career has been ono of the strongest opponents of British con nection and therefore cannot be sus pected of the slightest sympathy with British views antagonistic to Ireland.
