 The rocket might turn and come back to earth. It might keep on going and going, nobody knows where-but many a willing to take a chance.
 There's Capt. Charles N. Fitzgerald, commander of the New York city air police. He says he's anxious to make the trip.
 "The journey promises to be rough one," says Goddard.

 "The rocket would be shot from a long -barreled gun. It would contain auxiliary charges to boost it along as the initial velocity decreases.
 Each boost would be a terrific bump"
 The rocket rider would have a diffi- cult time making entries in his note book.

TAFT PLEADS FUR
 DISARMAMENT AS ITEM OF ECONOMY

HAMILTON, Bermuda, Jan. 22- Former President William Fl. Taft. Wno Is spending month here, said in an interview today that ''the enormous burden of debt of every country makes almost indispensable that the neces- guy for armament be removed. You can only do that by joint action and Joant agreements and by promises of settling all differences without fight ing"
 They are already discussing se- r1ously in the United States an agree ment for disarmament or the limiting of armament and strangely enough this comes fin part at least, from men who have been vigorously opposed to any league at all" he continued.
 T am very hopeful that under Mir. Harding we shall reach a conclusion with other leading nations for an asso- citation or league which shall mark the advance brought about by the war to- ward reasonable machinery for the avoidance of future conflicts. This will involve the sitting around the council table of all important nations and will imply the taking of joint measures to compose differences and to restrain a resort to the unsatisfactory and bloody arbitrament of war
 Lately I have often been questioned
Arizona republican., 1921-01-23

as to the attitude of the United States toward Great Britain. Of course the United States consists of some 110,o0O,- 900 people with many different cur rents of thought permeating the mass Many different groupings too will be found and there are some of these groups, more vocal than representative of real public opinion who manifest bitter feeling against Britain. But when an important question arises, when a real issue comes before us, then the sober public opinion of the United States asserts itself.
 'T never have had the slightest con- cern over the relations of the two countries We form the strongest union for peace between nations that exists in the world today. We have got into the habit of settling all our differences by means of negotiation and arbitration The great body of the people in the United States cannot con- ceive of a war between the two coun-
 tries because they arc confident that
 any matters in dispute can and will be
 settled either by negotiation or by the
 judgment of a court as with people in
 any domestic jurisdiction where law
 and order prevail"

China Takes Step For Uniformity In
 National Currency

[ SHANGHAI, Jan. 22.-The first step in an effort toward uniformity in Chinese currency will be undertaken by the building here of Chinas first national mint. The work will be di- rected by an American mint expert, Clifford Hewitt, of Philadelphia, whose services have been loaned to China by the United States and who came here a short time ago to begin his duties. MT. Hewitt installed the new mint at Manila, the first estab- lished in the Philippines.
 It is expected that the completion of the new Chinese mint will put an end to the conglomerate system of cur rency of all kinds and values which
 has long been a drag on the commer- i cial progress of China.
 While the Mexican dollar, intro
 duced into China from the Philippines,
 has come to be the common unit of
