FATAL PLANE CRASH
REMAINS UNEXPLAINED
Accident in Which Rodgers Lost
Life Cannot Be Solved, Navy
Head Says.

Philadelphia, Aug, 80 Pl-Naval
authorities may never learn the
exact cause of the airplane crash
here last Friday afternoon in
which Commander John Rodgers,
noted naval aviator, was killed and
his mechanic. Samuel j. Schultz,
seriously injured.
Schultz is in the hospital at the
Philadelphia navy yard suffering
from a broken back and other in
juries. While his condition has re-
manned unchanged, doctors said he
had a lighting chance"
Rear Admiral Thomas P. Mag
ruder commandant of the navy
yard. had a short interview with
Schultz yesterday, but the me-
chanic said he had no idea why
the plane crashed. After his talk
with Schultz, Admiral Magruder
said that it was unlikely that the
reason for the crash will ever be
revealed.

LEAGUE Will MEET
WEEK FROM TODAY
Important Items Coming Up.
German Military Parade

Geneva, Aug. 80 Up - With the
gathering of statesmen throughout
the world one week from today
for the annual assembly of the
league of nations. many problems
of great import, in addition to the
election Of Germany to member
ship, seem likely to face the inter-
national body.
In addition to. German member
ship, the recent British-Italian &C
cord on Abyssinia and the general
problem of equality of treatment OF
small nations by the league, the
demand of Spain for sovereignty
over the internationalized com
munityo f Tangier in Morocco, has
arisen and threatens to bring COM
plications into a settlement of the
crisis over the claims of both
Spain and Poland for seats in the
league council.
Finance IN Issue
1t appears not improbable that
the financial problems of Europe
also may be thrown into the
league, having taken on new yigor
since the visit to Europe of An
drew w. Mellon, secretary of the
United States treasury, who has
talked with various men high in
European finance, but with what
regard has not been made known.
S. Parker Gilbert, agent general
for reparations payments, has had
a conference with Sir Arthur Sal
ter, who was instrumental as head
of the financial section of the
league in bringing about the finan-
cial rehabilitation of Austria and
Hungary.
L. S. Debt Terms.
1t is reported that there is a. ten
dency to consider Frances attitude
toward ratification of tn eaccord
reached between NJ. Berenger, the
French ambassador to the United
States, and Mr. Mellon with regard
to Frances debt to the United States,
as the key TO amelioration of the
general debt situation. One practical
step said to be under consideration
is that of voting German reparation
railway bonds in public markets,
thus capitalizing one form of repair
atoms security.
Great Britain and France both
have expressed opposition to the
suggestion of Spain for a special
conference here on Tangier. They
also are opposed to giving Spain
permanent seat in the council. These
two nations are expeced to insist
that nothing must hinder the entry
of Germany into the league at the
coming session, realizing that if Ger
many is vetoed the league will re-
ceive a blow from which it would
be difficult to recover. Italy's atti-
tude on to the claims of Spain is be-
ing eagerly watched because of the
recent Italo-Spanish accord.
German Military Parade.
As the league officials are prepar-
ing for the commencement of the
sessions come reports Of how twenty
thousand soldiers of the wartime
armies goose stepped and clicked
heels as they marched for three
hours in review before former

Very rarely is it possible to
state positively just what causes
explosions and crashes" he said.
In many cases, the best board
Of inquiry or investigation can do
is to reach the irreducible mini
mum of causes that might have
had to do with the accident or
catastrophe under consideration"

FIRE IN PRINT SHOP

Slight damage was done by fire
IN the building occupied by the
rt3E'est"in Print Shop, 33S Main

Officer John Leibler reported that
a pile of paper cartons piled against
the side of the building took fire.
An alarm from Box brought the
fire department.
Shortly after o'clock this morn
ing, an automobile owned by f. c.
Ferre, SIS Stratford Road, took fire
on Commercial street. The firemen
at the central station responded to
a still alarm and extinguished the
blaze with slight damage.
