Macmillan to Use
Low Wave Length
In Coming Expedition

Chicago, March gas a means OF
developing low wave length efficiency
in radio, Commander Donald B. Mac
MILAN, Arctic explorer, today an
nounced he would have his eXpedi-
ton into the far north equipped with
transmitters of four wave ranges.
when it departs this year. Decision
to use a low wave length was reach
ed following a conference of radio
experts here in which it developed
that the best results have been OBJ
tanned in. short meter work, rather
than over q long wave length, par
ticularly accounted for in light con-
ditions.
A wave length Of 40 metres will
probably be used during midnight
hours, which will be daylight in the
Arctic regions. Commander Mac
MILAN explained, but will penetrate
darkness in the lower degrees of
latitude. Eighty metres will be pro-
vided as an emergency wave length,
fitted to cope with unanticipated
conditions. and the 80 wave length
will be provided to prove that it will
not function over the distance under
the conditions existing in daylight.
A 20 metre band will be used dur
ing the period preceding and sue
ceeding. noon, when the expedition
expects to be in entire daylight dur
ing the months of June, July. Au-
gust and September, this especially
after passing so degrees north lati-

Arguments Today
In Teapot Dome
Case at Cheyenne

Cheyenne, Wyo, March % (By A.
P.)-With all preparations made and
the stage set for the last act in the
Tearot Dome drama, attorneys for
both the government and the Mann
moth Oil Company rested today.
Final arguments will be presented
before Federal Judge T. Blake Ken
nedy beginning tomorrow. Atlee
Pomerene. of Government counsel, is
expected to make the first statement
to the court. Mr.. Pomerene's argu-
ment will not be in written form. he
said, and will take about two hours.
The defense then will have it's inn
ing with j. w. Lacey arguing the
technical points of the case. This
argument probably will be the long
est of any to be made. since Mr. La
cey asked the court to set no limit
on it. The argument Of Martin w.
Littleton, of defense counsel, has
been set for the last of the defense.
The government will close with the
argument of Owen j. Roberts.

Southern Illinois
Area Being Cleared
Of Emergency Cases

Frankfort, Ills, March 22-(By A.
P.) - Temporary relief measures,
which got under way in a few hours
after the storm passed. have brought
food and clothing to survivors. The
dead have been given simple but
dignified burial and the hospitals
throughout the southern Illinois area
are rapidly being cleared Of the
emergency cases.
State troops were on guard in
West Frankfort today. barring the
highways to, all persons not holding
passes. No one but relatives or re-
lief workers were permitted through
the Gordon.
The death list Is not yet complete.
In hospitals are victims who are ex-
pected to die at any moment. OFF,
Gals believe that the bottoms
northeast of the town. in the direct
path of the storm, will yield other
bodies when more systematic
search has been made.
Relief workers say that the task
of rebuilding the shattered portions
of the larger towns and still more
difficult work in the rural and iso-
lated communities will occupy four
months, at least.

Conjecture Over
Weeks Big Drop
In Price of Wheat

New York, Mar. % (By A. P.)-The
familiar tests of trade expansion
continued to show disappointing re-
suits last week but they failed to in
dicates any business setback which
could correspond with the severe de-
pressing in the financial and grain
markets.
The reaction of stock prices, which
carried the averages to the lowest
levels of the year, was the most
drastic since the election. Under
lying causes, however, we're found
not so much in trade Irregularities
as in the receivership for the Chi
cago, Milwaukee and st. Paul Rail-
way, the indicated lack of harmony
between the executive and legisla-
tive branches of the government at
Washington and sympathetic res
ponse to the collapse of wheat pric-
eS.
In searching for causes for the
violent decline in wheat. experts held
that speculation had again broken
out of bounds and were inclined to
consider the speed of the feadiust-
ment as unWarranted as the eXtrav-
agant rise earlier in the year. The
Reorganization of the Chicago mar
ket spread at Winnipeg and Liver
pool, and the extent of the feverish
fluctuations were reflected in Z sim
gle days crop of 10 cents a bushel
which carried the May delivery near
the $3.50 level contrasted with the
years high price of $2.G5 a bushel.
An order for a federal inquiry
brought subsequent rallies but the
market continued in n state of high
nervous tension.
Despite the shrinkage in market
values of securities and grain, re-
assuring statements on the business
outlook came from Secretaries Mel
Ion and Hoover. who held that loss
es in speculation did not foretell any
weakening of industrial progress.
There was no tendency at WASH
ington or in the financial centers
to blame the ST. Paul tragedy on
anything but the roads unfortunate
expansion policy, undertaken at an
unpropitious time and a territory
not yet ripe for such an ambitious
development.
Other trade news was mixed. with
favorable and uniavorable develop
ments striking a fairly uneven bal
ance. The most alarming symptoms
of repression appeared in the oil in
dustry where gasoline prices We're
reduced for the first time this year
followed by an expansion N gaSo-
line stocks and further increase in
crude oil production. Cu"iously, Pc
troleum companies G:sregrlrjed these
developments in their alacrity 10
respond to reports of expanding
m ergers.
For the first week IN March, the
freight traffic broke all records for
the same period in preceding year 8.
CarIoadings numbered $4,000, eX-
ceeding those of the same eek last
year by 24,665 cars, and the achieve
ment was hailed by railroad men as
an unquestionable sign of business
progress. Steel shipments confirm ID
at satisfactory price although there
were reports of a reimbursement Ct
output in Pittsburgh and other dis
tricts. Bank cIearings were Unusual
ly heavy but the weeks increase of
ten percent was generally attributed
to income tax payments.

London, March o2.-(By A. F.)--
Austen Chamberlain, secretary for
foreign affairs, is expected to recount
before the house of commons on
Tuesday the results of his recent
mission to Paris which has been the
subject of animated discussion in the
British press.
NJ. De Fleuriau, the new French
ambassador to Great Britain, will re-
turn from Paris tomorrow. and al
most certainly will communicate to
MIR. Chamberlain the outcome of his
conversations with Premier Herriot,
before Mr.. Chamberlain addresses
parliament. Little hope is enter
teined that Mr.. Chamberlain will
have a very hopeful statement to
make to parliament.
it is current gossip that the
foreign secretary is experiencing the
same disappointment over the fall
ure of his efforts to make Roadway
against what are termed the pre-
conceptions and unyielding attitude
troubled his predecessors, with the
ro ssible exception of Ramsay Mac
Donald, who was cble to establish a
better atmosphere between the two
nations but did not stay in Office
long enough to see this atmosphere
absolutely clarified.
A new statement has arisen since
Mr.. MacDonald's premiership, to add
fn ha -
ernments oyer the Geneva protocol.
This Is the French war debt, for up
to the present, as far as is known,
no reply has been forthcoming from
the French government to the Brit
ish invitation to France to state that
governments view on repayment or
the funding of the debt.
Nevertheless, although little is
hoped from MIR. ChamberIain's pro-
nouncement. it Is awaited with great
curiosity. Interest will center on
whether the German suggestions for
security pact, which are known to
have amplified since they were first
made, and which ore regarded as of
first class importance by the British
government, are likely to material
ice in any form, and whether the
French government is inclined to
view them as the possible basis for
negotiations.
Nothing definite in this respect,
however, is expected to happen be-
fore the German presidential cleo
ton. At best so many apparently
insuperable difficulties surround the
question of a security pact that stu
dents of international affairs are in
clined to believe the hopeful outlook
lies in getting another disarmament
conference into being.

Doubts Good Faith
Germany in Move
To Join the League

Paris, ar. 22-Well Informed cir
cies in Paris believe that Germany's
reported willingness to join the
league of nations Internationally
should be taken with a grain Of
salt 1t is doubted by government
officials whether the Reichs will
reach any such decision before the
forthcoming German presidential
elections. 1t Is also remarked that
Germany has always driven hard
bargains, and that she would be in
clined to use abandonment of her
reservations respecting the league
for trading purposes.
There is a disposition. therefore.
to have the news Well confirmed by
Berlin before accepting it as a fact.
The Havas News Agency on Sat
urday stated that it had learned from
an authoritative source that the
German government was prepared to
demand admission of the Reich into
the league of nations without reser-
vations.

Chicago, March 22-(By A. P.)-
Conditions rapidly improved today
in the region swept last Wednesday
by the most destructive tornado In
the history Of the country. The eve
ming Of the fourth day after the
catastrophe saw the burial of nearly
the last of the 500 or more persons
killed.
Relief work continued at a rapid
pace, turning to the establishment OF
more permanent quarters for the
homeless and the transferring of
many of the nearly 5000 injured to
better places for treatment.
Even while every church was filled
with mOurners, relief emiSsaries pro-
ceeded with their work in the hos
pitfalls. Workers who could be spared
from the work of burial in the GENE
teries, went on with the task OF
searching for bodies which had pos
age OF the hundreds Of homes lev
elled during the storm.
The total death list for the five
states hit by the storm tonight stood
at 81, an increase for Sunday of
three, owing to deaths from wounds
and the finding Of body in the
debris. Rechecking may show that
there are some Implications in the
total, but with goodly number ex-
pected to die of injuries. those who
are In charge Of the relief work to-
night said that the toll would more
likely remain above 500, than Birik
below that number.
Raising of relief funds went for
ward all through Sunday in all parts
of country. largely in churches and
by radio appeals. One radio station
in Chicago had raised $4,000 alone.
The funds subscribed in Chicago
have passed the million dollar mark.
