URGE COOPERATION
 FOR DEFENSE DAY
State and Local Politicians Must
 Aid fl Experiment Is Successful

Washington, June 1. (AP)-Co- operation of state and local political authorities as well as national guard units is vital to the success of na- tlonal security plans, Acting Secre- tary Dwight r. Davis informed the governors Of all states today in let- ters supplementing his recent tele- graphic request for their support in connection with the defense test muster on July 4.
 "Ot course, state response to the proposed test is purely voluntary and must necessarily be predicated on what you consider 10 be the best interest of your state" MT. Davis added.
 In a general outline of the pur- poses and nature of the second de- fense test. the acting secretary said that its object was t~o-fold.
 ITO acquaint the American people with their national defense policies and obligations as set forth in the constitution and the national de- fense act of 1920, and 10 depict the plans and processes for the organiza- tion of the army of the United States and its muster into service in the event of any national emergency.
 ITO empha'ize tht historical oc- casion when congress first pledged the man-power and resources of the country for national defense and 10 commemorate the sacrifices made for that defense"
 To carry out these purposes, the letter continued. the defense test is designed to make 1t certain that the people. states, local communi- ties. and political as well as military authorities are acquainted with and realize their obligations under our national defense policies" since sue cessful application of the traditional American muster system as modified in the light of lessons of the world war can be assured only by such a general understanding.
 Tt is one of the main purposes of the defense test to explain to the people this system, and their part therein" Mir. Davis said. Tt is be- lieved that public knowledge of these plans Is not only essential for

Worlds Biggest Carlton
From Rockefeller to Church

New York, July 7-(AP)-John D
rockefeller. Jr., is presenting the
largest and heaviest carlton in the

church in memory Of his mother,
The carlton comprises 50 bells
which run AZ chromatic octaves. The
great mass of bell metal weighs more
than so tons and when completely
installed the steel work and fittings

church tower must support to more
than 100 tons.
The bells were made by GilIett &

Queen Mary, the American and
French ambassadors and other quests

a pigmy of but Is pounds.
The secret Of carillon's success
lies in the tuning, the British makers
say. The Rockefeller peal their own
phrase for the belfry choir, is tuned
according to the Simpson five-tone
principle" which in their opinion sur
passes the best efforts of the long re-
doubtable bellmakers of Belgium.
A bell is "cast on the heavy side. +"
they explain. 1t is then reduced to
weight and tone by experts who
lathe out the inside surface of the
bell according to the Simpson meth
cd. Once bell Is tuned, 1t stays
tuned forever.
The carlton is played from a KEY
board similar to the pianoforte. The
instrumentalist is called a carlton
eur" who plies lever-keys and foot
pedals with such might and main
that a vigorous hymn leaves him in
much the state Of an active college
halfback on a warm day.
Nevertheless the art Of the carlton
eur is one of the oldest and most
cherished in sacred music. The Bel
gian players have virtually a mono
poly on the profession, the CROYDON
bellfounders say. They serve an ap-
premiership Of years before they are
pronounced masters in the cathedral
school where they are trained.
The Episcopal church at Cohasset
