VAN SWERINGEN ID
 OPEN UP RECORDS
Railroad Merger EzpOnents
 Reach Agreement

Washington, July 2s R-An agreement by the Van swerigen in- terests to throw open a considerable portion ef their records upon the Nickel Plate railroad merger for the snspection of its opponents was reached today before the interstate commerce commission.
 Among the matters which the protestants will be allowed to ey- anime will be all the records of stock Tn live railroads which has been de- posted to bring about tho merger. The records of the railroad compa- nies will be searched for data bear ing on the merger, while the busi- ness records of o. P. and M. J. Van S"erlgen, as to the sale and pur- chase of certain railroad securities, will be disclosed in part.
 Q. r. Van Swerigen, principal creator of the merger, continuing under cross-eXamination today, tes- tltled that he had borrowed money from the First National bank of New York and that his operations in railroads had given him business association with the Guaranty Trust Co. and J, r. Morgan & Co. He denied, however, that there was any Erie pool' associated with him in the purchase of stock of that rail- road preliminary to the merger, or that there was any ageerment be- tween the New York Central and the Nickel Plate railroad affecting the administration of the latter system.
 Henry A. Anderson, representing Chesapeake & Ohio rail road stockholders, withdrew and asked to have struck out of yester- days record all questions and an swers relating to prospective profits accruing to the Van Sweringen in terests from the merger.
 H. s, Bird, attorney for other 65 Ohio stockholders, who oppose the merger. asked MT Van Swcringen if such dissenting stockholders had not been threat cned at one time with loss of their stock in case of failure to assent. The witness denied it.

ADVISES FREIGHT RATES
Charges From New England to New York Harbor should Re Same as From Points West,

New York. July 23 R-Freight rates from points in New England to New York harbor should be made on the same basis as rates from points west of the Hudson river. Billings Wilson, traffic manager of the Port of New York authority. declared to- day in testifying before the interstate commerce commission at the re- sumption of the eastern class rate in vestigation, The hearings began last February with s view 10 protecting the interests of the port and to se- cure uniform treatment In the mat ter of railroad charges in all parts of the district.
 Testimony and exhibits were pre- scented to the commission to empha- size the importance of treating the New York port district as a unit and of establishing uniform freight rates on behalf of the port authority which intervened in the hearings when they were commenced last February.
 Manufacturers in Jersey City and Newark are undergoing severe hard ships because they are compelled 10 pay the same rates as New York city shippers on traffic to and from the west, but higher rates to and from New England. Mir. Wilson argued.

GIGANTIC TASK
 i, FACES AVIA7ORS
San Diego to Hawaii Flight Set i. e,., for Next Month

Honolulu, July 2S R-Enormity bf the task facing the naval aviation service in its proposed efforts next month to complete nonstop flight Of more than 2,oO0 miles with three seaplanes, from San Diego or San Francisco to Hawaii. was made man. ifest today in orders issued from the U. s. s. Langley. flagship of Captain stanford E. Moses, commander of the aircraft squsdrons In the United States battle fleet. He has been de- signated commander of the flight project.
 It will be the longest trans oceanic hop ever attempted. The flight, to start late in August or early in Sep tember, will follow a mercator course from San Diego or San Fran cisco direct to Kabuluik, Island of Maui. and thence northward to Hon. o!ulu, without stop. The starting point Is dependent upon weather conditions, visibility and other ele- ments affecting aviation.
 Commander John Rodgers, one of 4he aviators of the navy, has been named flight unit commander and will fly one of the Navy's new PN-9 planes, a product of the Bureau of Aeronautics factory In Philadelphia.
 Commander Rodgers plane will be distinguished by white bow. The Boeing plane under construction by the Boeing Aircraft Corporation of Seattle will be in charge of Lieuten- ant Commander James H. Strong. It has been designated PB-1 and will be all gray. The second PN-s plane. piloted by Lieutenant A. P. Snody, will be distinguished by white tail.
 Preliminary training Is to be car tied out at the San Diego air station.
 Once at sea, the ships will fly at h normal ceiling of 1000 feet or less and a speed of 70 aerial knots, or approximately So miles an hour. Commander Rodgers will prescribe the details of taking off and the use of other aircraft as escort.
 The planes at all times will keep within visual slngnalllng distance Of each other. In case bad weather vendors it impracticable to keep to- gether. each plane will proceed in- dependently, endeavoring to main tain touch with other planes by eadio.
 Along the surface of the ocean will be stationed eleven vessels known as plane guardships.
 In Hawaii the planes are instruct ed to land in Pearl Lochs, as near ss possible to the naval aviation station on Ford Island.

GERMANY PROVES
 GOOD INTENTION
This Is Consensus of Opinion
 on Note

London, July 2S R-Germany' reply to Frances note outlining the observations of the allies with re-
 spect to the Germany security pact
 proposals, has been thoroughly
 studied by the foreign department
 experts of the three countries direct
 ly concerned-Great Britain, France
 and Belgium. London now is await ing communication which 1t is
 learned that M. Briand, the French
 foreign minister, has sent to the
 French ambassador in London, out lining the deductions made by
 France after a careful examination by the foreign office.
 Despite all the criticisms of the German reply, it cannot be doubted that the impression created is on the whole favorable. Even in France, where many of the press comments have been written in a more or less ironical tone, there is an admission that Germanys attitude is concilia- tory, and hope for satisfactory outcome is entertained.
 In England most of the comment is based on qualification that Ger many evidently is anxious for a set clement and framed her reply in manner to encourage hopefulness. The fact is that the speech of the German foreign minister. Dr. Gus tav Stresemann, in the Reichstag yesterday is regarded as reflecting the desire of the Germans to do nothing to hamper the progress of the negotiations to which it is hoped the reply will lead.
 Dr. Stresemann expressed conf dence that further discussions would develop something definite. He ex- horted the German people to have faith in the promises which had been made 10 Germany by the allies. Referring to the great problems of the present" the foreign minister de- clared that economic distrust in France and Germany could be re- moved only with the cooperation of the great world powers.
 Opinions In England differ as to the wisdom of Germany raising some questions. It is admit ted that it Is natural that Germany should raise them, but 1t is thought many of the questions might better have been left for discussion through diplomatic conversations, although 1t is conceded the German had 10 take into ac- count pressure Of public opinion at home.
 The London TGnes comments Ger 1 many heartily for carrying out the wise impulse which led her govern ment to make the original proposals | for the pact. The paper thinks the 'eply is much more favorable than might have been expected in view of he present situation in Germany. md says:
 The reply give evidence of good will and broad purpose. It makes t possible to accelerate negotiations hat were hopeful from the first. but llso shows how much ground is to oe covered"
