AN INTERNATIONAL
NEUTRAL ZONE PROBABLE

London. Sept. 2o.-A proposal to
make the Azores Archipelago an inter
national neutral zone is being consid-
cred by the American, British and
German governments, according 70 to-
days Manchester Guardian. The pro-
posal is said 70 be Incidental to the
opening Of the Panama canal
The fact that German, American
and British companies have a joint
cable station on the islands makes
free access to them of the utmost i'm
rortance. '1t is proposed" says the
Guardian, that a joint treaty be ar
ranged between Portugal and the
other civilized nations by which a
neutral international zone shall be es-
tablished and strictly maintained in
the archipelago. IT is suggested that
all vessels within this zone be p-o-
tected against attack or seizure and
allowed to receive provisions and fuel.

today, to ascertain whether they in
cluded any papers forged by Father
Hans Schmidt to conceal the murder

Schmidt confessed he prepared these
blank certificates for the purpose of
accounting for the death of persons
hopelessly sick, or crippled, whom he
meant to kill painlessly for their own
good. He denied. however. that he
had put his plan into effect yet, or
that he had any victims besides the
