MEET NEW
CRISIS
Margin of Safety in Chamber
Is Small and Program May
Be Defeated
By HARRY r. FLORY
international News Service

PARIS, Nov. 21.-The Painleve
cabinet appears to be rapidly APP
preaching new crisis.
Although the financial program
presented by Premier Painleve has
succeeded in making the first
hurdles in it's progress through the
Chamber of Deputies, the margin
Of safety has been small enough so
that it now appears very doubtful
whether the measure can be passed.
Trouble will certainly arise when
the vital portions OF the bill, pro-
viding for heavy direct taxation
upon real estate and property, is
taken up.
The cabinet -nnet today with
President Domergue and decided to
hasten the issue.
When the chamber meets this
afternoon, the ministry will ask
that the financial program be taken
up for consideration without in
terruption and will SAX for a con-
tinuous sitting until the measure
has reached a final fate.
After an all-night session, the
chamber, early today, adopted the
first article of the governments
program, providing for the creation
of a national sinking fund for the
liquidation Of the floating debt,
with only slight notifications
Prior to this, the chamber rejected
q counter project for national lot
terry, the proceeds to be used for
the same purpose.
The chamber adjourned at 1850
o'clock.

Nearing declared that capitalism
is strongly entrenched in the
United States, by virtue Of high
wages which are being paid and a
campaign for cooperation between
employers and employees. Nearing
said capital has adopted a policy
OF buying off labor instead Of
crushing it. and charged that there
is IAN unparalleled system Of eco
nomic espionage" in the United
States.
Turning his attention to inter
national relations, Nearing said
there were two big possibilities; one,
q clash between the British empire
and the United States, and the
other, a clash between Soviet Rus
STA and the League Of Nations
backed by the United States.
England's Grip Broken
England. he said, used to be the
political and economic mistress OF
the world. Now, he continued, she
has lost her economic domination,
and must either regain 1t or lose
her political power as wen.
t'She can't get back her economic
power" said Nearing, without
fighting and defeating the United
States. But, unless she were able
to induce Japan to pull her chest
nuts out Of the fire for her-which
is very unlikely to happen-she
knows she is in no position to fight
the United States"
Nearing predicted that the time
would come when capitalist indus
try would have to measure it's
strength against the Soviet. He
made it plain. however, that if that
event arises the United States will
back the capitalist nations and the
war will simmer down to strug-
gle between the Soviets and the
United States.

By CHARLES A. SMITH
international NeWs Service

LONDON, Nov. 21.-.'To test out
the desired equipment for distressed
seamen when cast away in an open
boat in mid-ocean." Captain G. e.
Kitchens ana three companions will
shortly set out from England to
make a ss.OOO:mile voyage in a
forty-foot boat under conditions. Of
perpetual shIpwreck.
During this time these adven-
turers hope they win encounter
every class Of weather. cross the
equator twice and round Care
Horn, make one nonstop run Of
1900 miles and another of 1900
miles, and during certain stages OF
their voyage live on starvation diet,
or, -as sailors call It, hard tack.
Our purpose in making this
voyage is to find out how little
food man can live on for q given
protracted voyage or period" Cap
tain Kitchens said In an interview.
We will test the staminal quail
ties Of different foods and slim
ulants, and the minimum amount
Of water necessary to support life.
Aim to Aid Sailors
This can be done only by severe
and voluntary hardship. But we
are hopeful that our conclusions
viii be invaluable to sailors
The boat in which this adventure
viii be undertaken Is a former
Hfeboat named the Elizabeth and
Blanche. She is fitted with radio,
and is driven by a fifteen horse
power heavy oil engine, specially
constructed for its adaptability to
all circumstances.
She viii carry a specially made
compass, and is fitted with a patent
device which Captain Kitchens
hopes viii catch all the rain-Mater
necessary during the voyage. She
Is not equipped for comfort. There
are no beds in her tiny salon. Two
long touches are the only sleep
ing accommodation. The salon will
be used for all purposes, including
cooking, eating, and sleeping.
Three Years for Trip
Captain Kitchens expects to be
away about three years, and mis-
itinerary will be: Across the At
lantic Ocean, down the west coast
Of Africa to the Cape of Good Hope,
then from Durham to Freemantle
and other Australian ports to New
Zealand. The return voyage will be
round the Horn to South American
ports, the West Indies, New Orleans.

through the canals to Chicago,
across the Great Lakes to Montreal
and Quebec, and then home across
the Atlantic.
His three companions on the voy-
age will be Phillip Nichols, second
in command; Leonard Stewart, en-
gineer. and Gilbert Moss, radio
operator.
He has great hopes that another
result Of this voyage will be that
he will be able to produce an ideal
lifeboat. about which he already has
some revolutionary ideas.

.FClJL.TY
IS BEING
STUDIED
Federal Code Stations Blamed
for Most Of Trouble
by Experts
By ROBERT S. THORNBURGH

BY ROBERT s. THORNBURGH
With the Government itself re-
sponsible for considerable per-
centage of the interference that
almost nightly distorts radio pro-
grams into . tumble of squeals
and code signals, demand has been
filed with the Department OF
Commerce that steps be taken to
rid the air Of this serious impedi-
ment to reception, it was learned
today.
An investigation by radio ex-
perts has placed responsibility for
most of the code interference upon
the navy, army and postoffice
broadcasting stations.
East Is Troubled
These stations operate in many
sections of the country, but the
chief obstacles to good reception
have been experienced in the East,
the vicinity Of the Great Lakes. on
the Pacific coast. and in the Panama
Canal zone.
The powerful Arlington and
Annapolis naval stations and most
Of the other navy and army sta.
tons transmit code messages on
high wave lengths, and the series
Of harmonics that are created are
responsible Tor interference on a
number OF important wave lengths
between 200 and 500 meters.
East OF the Mississippi, the
principal code interference is met
on the broadcasting waves OF
nationally known stations, including
KDKA Of Pittsburgh, WSAI Of Gin
cinnafi, WV Of Detroit, KYW Of
Chicago and KSD Of st. Louis. ac-
cording to reports to the depart
ment.
on the Pacific Coast at least
half OF an the stations operating
have complaints OF interference
from government code stations. al
though specific reports as TO the
wave lengths affecred have pot
been received here.
Can Be Overcome
Experts at the Hureau Of Stand
ards have discovered that by GER
apparatus harmonics may be
trapped 7out. or reduced to q
minimum In meeting the har-
monte problem lies the solution Of
clearing the air Of q serious source
Of interference.
Officials said that radio engineers
Of the navy. army and post office
are making studies which may lead
70 az least partial elimination OF
harmonic interference arising from
transmission Of official business by
radio code.
A cooperative arrangement where
by no code viii be broadcast be-
tween 200 and 600 meter wave
lengths is expected to be made.
Range OF Interference
The range. Of interference caused
by harmonics does not exceed 100
miles, experts said, even though the
major signal is transmitted by
powerful station. With code sta
tions scattered over most OF the
country, however, virtually all COM
munities have this interference as
local problem.
Some interference is caused by
the existance Of the harmonics Of
the entertainment stations, but
owing to the fact that the harmonic
signal Is transmitted on half the
major wave length, this problem
only affects stations operating on
over 400 meters.
