HAWKER
MEETS DEATH IN
PLANE ACCIDENT.
The Machine DeSCendS in
Flames; Flyers Body Is
Badly Mutilated, Both by
Fire and the Fall.
(By The Associated Press.J

London, July 12.-Harry G.
Hawker, the first aviator to essay
a flight across the Atlantic in an
airplane, met a terrible death to-
day while flying over Hendon
field. The machine was seen de-
scending in flames, and Hawker's
body was found two hundred yards
from the spot where the airpIane
fell. 1t was badly mutilated both
by fire and the fall. One foot was
severed and both legs We're broken,
Hawker made the start on his
memorable air voyage across the
Atlantic from St. Johns, New
foundland, May IS, 1919. He was
accompanied by Lieutenant Com
mander Mac Kenzie Grieve, as
navigator, The intrepid voyagers
were missing for six days and
were virtually given up for lost,
when word was flashed that the
little Danish steamer Mary, bound
from New Orleans and Norfolk
for a Danish port, had picked the
forced to alight on the water
about 1850 miles out from New
foundland and $50 miles from the
Irish coast.
News of the rescue stirred all
England, and the people of other
countries as well, and on his re-
turn to his homeland he was dec
GRATED by the king.
The proverbial luck of Harry
G.. Hawker remained with him for
many years as an experimental
and test flyer. in which work, it
was said, he received not less than
100000 yearly He neld many
of the old time ariplane records,
among them the worlds altitude
record in 1916 for more th9n a.
600 feet.
At luncheon given in his and
Lieutenant Commander Grieve's
honor, Hawker deprecated the or
ganization which had won for the
United States the honor of the
first crossing of the Atlantic by a
heavier than air machine. He held
that 1t was not a serious attempt,
with a shin stationed at every
twenty yards" His remarks were
greeted with absolute silence on
the part Of the men gathered at
the luncheon. nearly all of whom
were British.
Later, Hawker explained his re-
marks, saying that his point had
been misunderstood, and that they
were intended for those who were
criticizing the government for not
supplying station ships for hs
flight.
Nothing was further from my
mind he said, than to criticize
the Americans.

Washington, July 12.-Twenty
thousand army enlisted men ap-
piled for discharges in the first
ten days of this month, and thir-
teen thousand have been released
from service. Secretary Weeks an

centage of applicants came from
commands on the Mexican border
which. he said, amounted in some
cases to so per cent of the enlisted
strength of the units
Requirements will be sent from
other posts, although II is not eX-
pected that more than a fraction
of the vancies will be filled, Mr.
Weeks said.
Location and the nature Of duty
apparently influenced the ratio of
applications, he added, as 1t varied
widely. Mr.. Weeks said he did
not expect the application rate of
the first ten days to continue and
that probably In the remaining
weeks there would he a total Of
not more than 10000 applications
for release.
In August reductions through ex-
hiring enlistments at the rate Of

tinue until the armv's enlisted
strength drops to 100000.
In the second division, stationed

HIGH FREIGHT RATES

Washington, July 12.-High
freight rates on livestock and feed
prevent producers from replenish-

meat will be advanced to the con-

that general conditions warrant
some reduction in rates on com

NAVAL APPROPRIATION
BILL IS SIGNED BY
PRESIDENT HARDING

Washington, July 12.-The an
nual naval appropriation bill was
signed late today by President
Harding. The bill carries approx
imately $41O,OO0,00O and its sign
ing ended the technical lapse of
navy funds which had existed since
July /. when the fiscal year began.
Under resolution which accom-
panied the bill to the White House
the appropriations were made
retroactive to July 1. to cover any
technical deficits.
Enactment of the bill was agreed
upon after the senate had aban-
doned its fight for amendments
authorizing the construction Of
new airplane carriers and Pacific
coast naval stations. AS finally
accepted 1t carries the Borah
amendment authorizing and re-
questing" the president to call a
three-power naval disarmament
conference.
The bill represents a decrease Of
about SS6,000,000 in the original
senate figures and an increase of
about $14,000,000 over those first
advocated by the house.

mediatelg yours, as your unflnish-

to both houses of congress and to
the country frankly to state the diff

to meet. and the added peril this

Our land has its share of the
financial chaos and the Industrial

sober aftermath we face the order
of reason, rather than act amid the
passions of war and our own lana
and the world are facing problems
never solved before. There can be
no solution unless we face the
grim truths and seek to solve them
in resolute devotion to duty. After

TEXT OF PRESIDENT HARDING'S MESSAGE TO
CONGRESS ON SOLDIER BONUS LEGISLATION

Washington, July 12.-Foliowing
is the full text of President Hard
ing's address to the senate:
Mr.. President, and gentlemen of
the senate:
There has come to my atten-
ton the pending unfinished busi-
ness before the senate, and it is an
imperative duty to convey to you
the probable effect of the passage
at this time of the proposed act,
providing for adjusted compensa-
tion to our service men in the
world war. If this measure could
be made effective at the present
time without disaster to the ma
tions finances and without hind
rance to imperative readjustment
of our taxes it would present an
entirely different question than
that which Is before you. In q
personal as well as a public man
ner, which ought to be a plight Of
good faith l have commended the
policy OF generous treatment Of
the nations defenders, not as a
part of any contract, not as the
pay OI dCDI WlllIli 10 wv ms
but as mark of the nations graf
itude. Every obligation is to the
disabled and dependent. In such
references as has been made to
general compensation there has
been a reservation as to the earliest
consistent time for such action.
IL 1t is taken. Even without such
reservation, however, a modified
view would be wholly justifiable at
the present moment because the
enactment of the compensation bill
in the midst of the struggle for re-
adjustment and restoration would
hinder every effort and greatly i'm
peril the financial stability of our
country. More, this menacing ef-
fort to expend billions In gratuities
will imperil our capacity to dis
charge our first obligations to
those who must not fail to aid.

CONF FERENCE ON
DISARMAMENT IS
POP PULAR TOPIC
AMONG BRITISH
London Believes That All
the Nations Invited VIII
Accept Lloyd George
May Represent England,
PREMIER BRAND HAS
DECIDED TO ATTEND
Much Interest Shown In tho
Question As To Whether
Germany and Russia VIII
Receive Invitations.

London, July II (by the Asso-
ciated Press THE disarmament
conference continues to be the most
prominent topic Of discussion, di-
viding honors with the Irish peace
conference. No doubt is felt IN
London that all the nations invited
will accept and as the French pre-
mier NJ. BRAND, seems already to
have decided to go to Washington,
it is considered all the more likely
that the British prime minister
will also go, always providing that
the state OF affairs at home at that
time will permit his absence and
that his health will permit him to
make the trip, as there has been
talk of the premier's taking a long
rest in Switzerland by advice of his
physicians.
Declined To Visit Z. s.
The belief prevails among the
members of his encourage, how
ever, that the premier is strongly
inclined to visit America and that
Sir Auckland Geddes, the British
ambassador at Washington Is
pressing him to go. 1t is assumed
as a certainty that A. j. Balfour,
lord president of the council, will
be delegate, and probably also
Admiral Lord Beatty, Lord Lee, Of
Fareham, first lord of the admi-
rally and Sir Laming Worthington
Evans, secretary for war.
Much interest is shown in the
question as to whether Germany
and Russia will be invited to send
delegates and In the unabated press
comment increasing attention is
bestowed on the fact that invita-
tions are not confined to those
powers especially interested in Pa
cific problems, but go also to
France and Italy, which, it Is held,
will introduce the more complex
problem of general disarmament,
military as we'll as naval.
PreniieFsR Statement.
The premier's statement In the
house of commons yesterday well
coming President Harding's sugges-
| ton for conference to discuss
the Limitation of armaments prob
ably will be the only announcement
y of the attitude of Great Britain on
the subject until Washington has
indicated the exact nature OF the
proceedings for organization of tho
conference and other details which
will be handled through the GUS
tomary diplomatic channels.
Pending conclusion of these ar
Irangements, Dowing street officials
declare this afternoon that It was
impossible this afternoon to 5ay
definitely whether the premier
would go to Washington for all or
part of the conference sitting, but
that 1t was quite possible" that he
would make the trip, IL only to
attend the final plenary sitting
after the details of the proposed
international agreement had been
worked out with the assistance of
the premier's representative. Wis.,
count Gray's name figures promi-
nently in the conjectures as to who
might be entrusted with this task.
