HARDING CONFERS
WITH a. NATIONS ON
DISARMAMENT PARLEY
Continued from Page one.)

The British press and public
lately have begun to realize that
there are grave difficulties in the
way of a renewal of the Anglo
Japanese treaty and there was a
growing nervous apprehension that
this question was tending to en-
danger retention of American
friendship. This apprehension be-
came distinctly observable in the
changing direction of newspaper
comment, where new doubts were
arising and questions were being
asked as to whether it was worth
while to lose American friendship
for the sake of japanese friend
ship.
Furthermore, the government
and people alike earnestly desire
retrenchment and it has been rec
ognized that nothing would be so
conducive to retrenchment as
agreement among the nations to
limit armaments.
Meetings of the premiers Of the
overseas dominions revealed little
disposition on the part of the do
minions to provide the necessary
large sums as contributions to I'M
perial defense measures II they
could by any means be avoided.
The fact that China will be In
vited to participate in the negotia-
tions apparently has given the
greatest satisfaction generally.

BERMUDA ADOPTS
AN ANTI-L|QUOR
SNUCGL INC LAW
(By The Associated PressJ

Hamilton, Bermuda, July To-
The colonial parliament has just
passed a special law to prevent
liquor smuggling from Bermuda 10
the United States. Anyone put
ting intoxicants aboard vessel
bound to American ports incurs a
fine Of f25 and penalty for sec
ond offense is $50. Local dealers
who are found to be in connivance
with the law-breakers are penalized
and may be deprived of their Ii
censes.
This law, which is now in effect
was brought about, thanks to the
reckless manner of carrying on
Illicit operations during the past
year. Not only were hiding places
for booze" in all parts of the ships
utilized, but the sn ,glers went
so far as to open up Jarrels of po-
tatoes in the hold and insert whisky
bottles.
Discovery Of this practice led to
an outcry from local produce ship
pers who foresaw interference with
their deliveries entailing delay and
money losses. The Bermudians
were concerned over the possibility
of having the liners held up at New
York by federal agents to the peril
of legitimate trade and the inter-
ruption Of tourist traffic on which
local prosperity SO largely depends
The recent capture, off the Caro-
lima coast. of schooner with forty
five barrels of whisky loaded here
at st. Georges, also had it's effect
in fastening legislation.

Of H0PEFULNESS
NegOtiatorS Are Congratu-

Move Toward Peace.

London, July 10.-The Sunday
newspapers JON in a chorus of
hopefulness over the Irish peace
possibilities, congratulating the ne
gotiators on the conclusion Of the
requisite initial step and trusting
that craftsmanship and n mutual
attitude of forbearance and sacri-
flee may be relied upon to bridge
the manifold difficulties ahead.
For the first time, declares the
Observer, a conference between
real principle is assured, and all
that reason, wisdom, patience and
persuasion can do will be attempt
ed to avert another and more dis
astrous rupture.

structive peace is to find its COM
petent architects"

EARL Of CRAVEN
IS DROWNED OFF
ISLE Of WIGHT
Disappears MySterio iousIy
From His Yacht During
the Night; Body Found on
Rocks Near CoWeS.

Cowes, Isle OF Wight, July 10
(by The Associated Press) The
Earl of Craven was drowned in
the waters of the Solent late last
night or early today. He disap-
peared mysteriously from his
yacht during the night and at
O'Clock this afternoon his body
was found on the rocks two miles
from Cowes.
The Earl of Craven in 1893
married Miss Cornelia Martin,
daughter of the late Bradley Mar
tin, of New York.
He was an enthusiastic yachts
man and had taken the Solent
lodge, belonging to the Marchioness
Of Ormonde. for the Cowes regatta
in August. He arrived yesterday
on board his yacht, the Sylvia,
paid a visit to the royal yacht
squadron and then returned to
the yacht.
When his valet visited his cabin
this morning he found the earrs
bed had not been slept in, and it
was feared at once that he had
fallen overheard from the stern
of the vessel, which has no pro-
tective rail.
A strong tide runs at the point
the Sylvia was moored. and 1t is
surmised that after having tripped
over a rope, or other obstacle, and
fallen into the water, he was car
ried away by the current.

Los Angeles, Calf, July 10.-Ex-
change of students between uni
Versities in Mexico and the United
States, a plan fostered by business
and educational workers in both
countries, is being encouraged and
recommended by President Obre-
gon as means of bringing about a
better understanding between the
two nations, according to advices
received here.
In a communication from the
Mexican president to Nelson O..
Rhoades of Los Angeles, member
Of the committee having the plan
in charge, 1t is said $50 offers from
American universities to Mexican
scholars have been received, that
many of the opportunities already
have been accepted and that the
young Mexicans have been sent to
this country to study.
Recognizing the value of COM
plete reciprocity, however. and the
advantage of familiarizing the
United States representatives with
Mexico, the Mexican president has
asked that twelve professors from
American universities visit Mexico
to study archaeology. Spanish
geology, Mexican history and other
subject. The visitors are to have
their fare paid by the Mexican
government and to receive the sum
Of 1000 pesos annually.
1.-THE Mexican government" the
letter adds, Twill authorize these
privileges in exchange for the
scholarships which the United
States will give to our students.
We will work in complete harmony
with the committee that has been
formed in furtherance of the ex-
change plan"
The movement was set on foot
by the American Chamber OF Com
merce in Mexico, and has been
placed before the national foreign
trade convention and other COM
mercial organizations in the United
States, besides the universities. The

to inspire future generations of
Americans down through the ages.
They gave all and in the giving,

of how Americans can die, but how
they should live. There only re-

We shall leave them in some beau

"Before us lie the bodies Of the
first three Americans to lose their
lives on the fields of France. Their
first night on the battle field, un-
daunted by d deluge of artillery
fire and overwhelming numbers,
they fought gallantly with un-
swerving resolution until struck
down. 1t was given to them to
point the way to the millions of
their fellows: Theirs was an eX-

Pathetic Scenes.
Always when the sought-for

scene of pathetic tenderness. A
grey haired mother, dressed in the
black of sorrow. would look along
the floor for the number which
identified the coffin of her loved
one among the thousands, and
finding it, some times she would
break down, and some times she
would bear up in silence. Many
veterans would be heard to say as
they found the pine box they
sought, ''He was my buddy"
Today" said General Pershing
I'VE see these thousands Of cas-
kets, each testifying to the sacri-
flee of life itself by some young
friend to give us peace and hap
piness. These were no common
souls. Under each flag there lies
one who was nurtured at the altar
of an American home. And today
his patriotic mother or wife mourns
her gallant soldier. In this hour
no human heart could remain un-
moved. We can feel the spiritual
presence of those whom were are

lifted from the petty and sordid
things of daily life to the higher

BATTLESHIP IS
MANEUVERED BY
RADIO CONTROL
Performance of the Iowa
During Bombing Tests
May Lead to Drastic
Changes.
(By The Associated rfess)


Washington, July 10 (by the
Associated Press )--The efficient
performance Of the battleship Iowa
lnder radio control during recent
aerial bombing tests may lead to
revolutionary changes in naval de-
Velopment, officers believe. With
put soul on board the Iowa was
maneuvered from the battleship
Ohio, five miles away, with the ut
most precision and there was not d
mitch in the mechanism in more
than two hours while the Iowa was
being bombed.
Scientific Triumph.
1t was a scientific triumph. The
Iowa was a real "Flying Dutch
man." that mythical crewless ghost
Of the seas, as she obeyed the will
Of Capt. f. L. Chadwick of the
Ohio, almost hull down on the
horizon. The invisible, magic fin
gers of the radio reached out
across the sea to whirl the Iowa's
steering wheel, operate the fuel
oil and water supply valves and
start and stop the ship.
So perfectly did the control
function that the officer on the
Ohio maneuvered the Iowa away
from the attacking air forces at
the moment the bombs were being
released, varying the speed of the
target vessel at will.
Army and navy officers who wit
messed the tests were much i'm
pressed by the possibilities Of de-
velopment of the radio control idea
for use in future wars. 1t was said
to be apparent that the radio con-
troll might eliminate some loss of
life in such enterprises as "block
ship" operations as when the Brit
ish undertook at Zeebrugge and Os-
tend to bottle up German subma-
rines. The "block ship" Of the fu-
ture, 1t was pointed out, might
sail serenely into an enemy harbor
without soul on board and be
sunk to obstruct its channel by the
electrical explosion of her maga-
zines.
Device Is Simple.
Already the navy is working out
plans for shifting control at will
from a surface vessel like the Ohio
to aircraft, either heavier or light
er-than-air. The radio control de-
vice on the Ohio is so simple. Off
GERS say, that little difficulty is an
ticipated in adapting it for use in
an airplane or a dirigible. When
this development is worked out
the controlling aircraft will be able
to work at an altitude of 10000
feet and above, safe from any gum
fire from below, and steer the con-
trolled vessel anywhere on the sea
within fuel radius.
A movement is afoot to install
radio control on at least one more
obsolete battleship and two old de-
stroyers to serve as targets for
aerial bombing practice and fur
ther experiments with radio con-
troll. Extension of experiments to
the possibility of applying the ra-
dio control to aircraft also is un-
der consideration and 1t is within
probabilities that giant crewless
bombing planes, loaded with high
against naval vessels, cities and
forts with no costly sacrifice of
trained officers and men.
The entire radio control idea, a
postwar development, in its pres
ent application is in its infancy,
naval officers believe, and they ex-
pect great improvements in the eff
ficiency and scope of the control
within the next few years.
