CREW IS STRANDED ON ISLE
castaways From Liner carawa Pass Four Weeks on Galapagos
 After Vessel Sinks.

Sydney, AustralIa.-Four weeks eS- perience on the Galapagos islands was sufficient for the crew of the Aus tralian government liner Carawa, who, like the original Robinson Crusoe, were castaways on that island group last April.
 The Carawa last March left Port Arthur, Tex. for Australia with ben zine and case oil. When In the Pacilc if encountered launch containing six men. which had been blown out to sea. The liner lowed the launch to Chatham islands In the Galapagos group.
 On Chatham island the Carawa struck a reef. Her stern post and rud- der were torn away and she began to leak badly. The crew made for shore and watched their boat sink.
 The men lived in a tent made from canvas from the ship and subsisted on canned meat and potatoes. The food supply was limited and sleep was out of the question on account of the mos- uuitoes. In addition, convicts on the island stole the castaways' belongings. After four weeks a schooner carrying cattle and hogs picked the men up and landed them at Guayaquil. Here they shipped on a steamer for Colon' where the Australian government liner Australange, bound to Sydney, picked them up early in July.

SLEEPS ON TELEGRAPH WIRES
New Yorker. Rescued From Dizzy Couch by Police, Says He Was
 "Out Wish Boys"

New York.-WiIliam AIerllcl, thirty, who refused to give his address, could not remember in the Newark City hos ptral how he climbed a telegraph pole at Fleming avenue and Providence street. Policeman Bush was patroilins his beat when he saw Mcrkel lying across the wires atop the pole.
 Not knowing whether Merkel was dead or sleeping, and fearing to arouse the man by shouting, he sent for the reserves.
 While the officers held a net "stee- pleiack" member of the force climbed the pole, awakened Merkcl and in- duced him to come down.
 Mcrkel said he had been tout with the boys" but had no recollection of having climbed the pole nor how long he had been there.

HELP BUSINESS MAN
Uncle Sam to Supply Missing Link Between Science and
 Industry.
Department of Agriculture InstaIIs Staff of Engineers to Figure Out
 Application Cost.

Washngton.-Uncle Sam Is going to help the American business man to use new discoveries.
 He Is going to do this by supplying the previously missing link between the scientific investigator, who cOnSld- CTS processes, and the business man who must measure costs and related problems. This missing link Is a force of industrial engineers.
 Secretary F. T. Meredith of the de- pertinent of agriculture. on the sugges- ton of Dr. Carl L. AIsberg, chief of the bureau of chemistry, has created q new servIce-office of development work-with q staff of engineers.
 It is under the direction of David ]. Price, who was chief engineer in the dust explosions investigations con ducted by the department.
 The idea is to translate through this new service the discoveries and inven- tiOns by the scientific investigators into terms that can be understood and applied in the industry on a commrr- cial basis by the manufacturer and iE- ventOr.
 Such discoveries are being made ev- cry year concerning the utilization of manufacturing waste; new food sub stance Is found, or a new dye formu- la, a glue or a preServatlve.
 Tn the commercial and industrial de- velopment of these many valuable processes and inventions they ire uuently have not been given fair trial because they were not at once practical.
 The application in the arts and tn- dustries of such discoveries requires the calculation of source and quantity of supply and cost of production, transportation and manufacture which Is really an industrial engineer ing problem.
 So the plan of the officials of the de partment of agriculture Is to allow the scientist and researcher to proceed to the point where he is able to announce that a certain process Is effective. Then the new service steps in and car ries on development work to prove whether the new process Is commer- cially and industrially practical.
 If 1t is found practical the engineers furnish cost and other data to the manufacturer and inventor.

WHY PINNED BEEF IN FIJIS?
Leading Scientists Are Going to Find Out if Cattle Can Be Raised
 There.

Honolulu.-Why do the Fiji island CTS eat canned beef?
 The Pan-Paciic scientific congress, composed of more than seventy-fve of the leading scientists of the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zea- land, Samoa, Japan and other coun- tries bordering on the Pacific ocean, struggled with that and other prob lens during its recent sessions here.
 The more important half of the knOtty question relative to the Fijians and their diet, however, is why don't they raise their own cattle instead of eating timed meat shipped across the ocean?
 If there is anything to prevent cattle raising in the Fiji islands, the con gress intends to find out what 1t Is, and, If possible, remove the obstacle,

FOUND 0H 4 SWEDISH SAILOR
Precious Stones, Supposed to Have Formed Part of Famous Jewels of Russian Royal Family, Un-

W0Shin-ton.-TraHic by bolSbeylst agents in precious stones, supposed to have formed part of the famous jewels ot Ihe Russian royal family, las been uuearthed by federal authorities.
 The 1&l diamonds found on Nells Jacnl>"u. a Swedish sailor. by customs officials in New York July 2&, it be came known. were iuclos1d in a pack age addressed to "Comrude Martens" Using lh.s as a lead. federal officials began am investigation which they de- clare ha, definitely connected Ludwig C. \. k. Martens. >rlt-Sw'cI soviet am- ha>SuGor Jo rhc United States, with the tr".'ic.
 Fi>c,y,rga Of ,hr fact that tho pack age was intended for soviet agents in this country was withheld by customs authorities when Jacobsen was arrest rd. although the details as Co the sciz- urc ot the jewels themselves were then made public.
 Identifies Martens Aid.
 Jacobsen. officials say, identified during the course of the investigation a photograph or Sautcri Nu0rteya, for mcr secretary Of Martens, as a person to whom previous packages had been delivered
 Introduction of the alleged incrimi- natory evidence of the traffic in pre- cioUS stones between soviet representa- tives in this country and abroad at the last hearing in the last deportation proceedings against Martens resulted in poStpourmcnt of further hearings to enable tho scIr.styIed ambassador to obtain evidence, if possible, iu reiuta- ton of the charges.

GERMAN CREWS
 DAMAGE SHIPS
Vessels AIIIOCated to the United States Arrive Here in Bad Condition.
WILL NOT BE SENT ON TOURS
Only One of Ships Capable of Making Voyage Under Own Power and 1t Would Be Unsafe to Send Her
 to Sea Again.

WashingtOn.-Owing to deliberate damage wrought by fhe crews to the engines and other vital parts of the five eN-German warships recently brought to this country under the peace treaty allOCatiOn, neceSSitating eXten- sive repair to make them possible of operation, none of the vessels will be sent on an exhibition tour of coastal cities, as the navy department had hoped to do.
 In making this announcement the department included a statement by Capt, J. F. Hellweg, commanding off Cer of the convoy which brought the eX-GermNn warShips to America, as serting that even the dreadnaught Ost- frlssland the only one of the five ships capable of making the transatlantic trip under her own power, was In such condition on arrival at New York that 1t would be hazardous to send her to sea again.
 Calls 1t Vandalism.
 Ndptulu IltllNtS llLIlDultA llc COu- ditlon of the ships, four of which, the cruiser Frankfurt and three destrOyers, were submerged at SCapa Flow, to "de- liberate vandalism" on the part of their former German crews.
 "The gutted condition in which we found these vessels on taking them over cannot be exaggerated" he said. "What had not been stolen was wrecked. The vandalism indicated very careful preparation and the usual thorOughnesS of the Huns in execu- tion."
 Expressing the belief that the Ost- frieSland had been systematically loot ed while in the German backyard for year after her surrender had been called for, Captain HcIlweg also de- clared the presence of an "unnecessar- fly large crew aboard when the dread nNught was brought to ROsyth, Scot land, indicated in the light of dGvel- opments that the crew was sent with a view of footing everything possible en route"
 Causes Many Breakdowns.
 Not only did the German crews con- init obvious dcpredatIons, Captain Hell veg declared, hut their preparations for future trouble by removing sections Of pipes and valves" were responsible, he said, for numerous breakdOwns in the OStfriesland's machinery on the trip across, He cited one instance in which q siX-inch pipe line gave way and flooded the fire room when the vessel was a thousand miles from the European coast. The dreadnought was forced to make most of the voyage, he said, with only one engine running, al though 1t lowed the Frankfurt all the way.
 By bringing back on the deck of the Ostfreisland two l2-inch and two A. inch guns which had formed reserve for the land batteries of the American navy during the war; Captain Hellweg estimated that more than twice the amount appropriated to bring the ex- German ships across, $G0,0OO, was saved in their transportation.

HARDING SLOGAN
rs RULE BY PARTY
Plans for Opening Drive Made
by Republican Chief.

MARION, o., July THE necessity
of the restoration of public confidence in
the national government, with the stab
liking influences that go with such
confidence, through the return of party
government at Washington, will be an
important feature of his speech Of ac-
ceptance, Senator Harding indicated to-
day.
In an informal way the senator
stressed his belief In and his allegiance
to the republican party and his con-
yiction that only through the applica-
ton Of its fixed policies in the national
administration can existing conditions
be met adequately.
He admitted he was regular In party
loyalty.
He held that any party to be sue
cessful could not be reactionary and
had to be progressive in the sense that
it was forward looking and abreast >of
the continuous and constant advance
ment.
The speech of acceptance will be made
in the auditorium at Garfield park, Ma
rion, July p.
Details Of the notification ceremonies
win be worked out by Senator Harding
at a conference expected Friday with
National Committeeman T. Coleman
Dupont of Delaware, chairman OF a
special subcommittee of the national
committee selected to attend TO this
matter.

der that they may be tided over to the
next taxpaying period.
The taxes collected on the basis OF
horizontal increases were declared to be
absolutely necessary to the financial well
fare of indianapolis.
GOODRICH ARGUMENTS
IN COMPLETE COLLAPSE.
The decision marks the complete col
lapse Of the arguments of Goodrich and
his tax board that they would decrease
tax Ievies TO such an extent that the
horizontal increases would be balanced.
The supreme court decision has the ef-
feet of taking one of the weights from
the balance and bringing the whole tax
structure built by the present admins
tration crashing about their heads.
They are in the predicament now OF
having low tax rates, which were so IRE
ouently promised. without the CORE
spending high valuations.
The decision is looked upon as meaning
complete failure of the Goodrich-b uVt
Capitalization plan Of taxation.
1t means that the legislature will have
n knotty problem to untangle which VIII
necessitate a review of a large part OF
the entire tax question which caused an
upheavaI in the last general session of
the assembly.
