by officials of the sailors union.
1t was announced that sailor, c.
Borva, had told of sighting a dis
abled Japanese fishing boat 1000
miles off the coast of Japan around
the first of January, 1927. Borva,
who was then a member of the crew
of the West Ison, said the steamer
lay alongside the disabled Japanese
boat for three hours while officers
of the West Ison tried to explain to
the Japanese how far they were
from Japanese waters. Offers to
take off the crew. of the Japanese
vessel apparently were not under
stood, Borva said, and the West Ison
proceeded for Seattle.

tect who is preparing the plans for

had agreed that the plans were suit
able. The final decision now rests
with the board of directors and the
stockholders here An hour for the
meeting OF the directors today was not
set last evening but will be some time
before the arrival of the Maddux party
in the airplanes.
Taking his attention for few mo-
nlentS from the all-abSorbing business
of building hotels and homes and big
buildings, WinSlow said, 81 am glad
to see that Douglas is taking an active
interest in aeronautics. 1 feel that

DANCE EVIL IS
EXCORIATED BY
REV. WINSETY

Such has become the interest and
enthusiasm in the revival at the Bap-
list church that the building with adj
ditional seating placed during the day
ran over last night.
Evidently Evangelist Winsett be-
heyes in the Bible as, the inspired word
of God.
He said this old book here gets me
into a lot of trouble at times but praise
God it will ge met out, for it has a
remedy for every ill., Taking as a
basis for his. remarks, the Fourth
Chapter of Second Timothy, Flyangel-
list Winsett launched into one of the
most terrific arraignment OF UNI
worldly practises on the part of church
members who do un-G Cody deeds. He
declared it was painful to have to
preach the kind of sermon he would
deliver, but Gods truth must be made
known that 20 urnay be warned. Some
of us are not willing for the truth to
be made known. But say that even
If the devils preached the gospel, the

Referring particularly to the dance
as demoralizing institution, Evangel-
list Winset read documents from the
highest authorities on that subject, A

read saying that out of 100000 fallen
women in the United States last year,

their downfall directly to the dance.

Club BANQUET
IS HAILED AS
GREAT SUCCESS

With more than SO in attendance,
the banquet in honor of Mrs r. L.
Hoyal, given last evening by the
Business and Professional Women
club, was pronounced success The
feature of the evening was the adj
dress delivered by Mrs. Hoyal, who,
having gone to France as a delegate
to the national convention Of the
American Legion in Paris, related her
experiences in trip which took her
into many corners of the world and
through many interesting and thrill
ling experiences.
Y The Parish house was adequately
decorated for the occasion with the
cO1ors of the club which are cactus
and copper for Arizona The color
scheme was worked into the decora-
tons and the menus. An elaborate
dinner was served and the Elks or
chestra played many cheering mel
odieS
The affair was in the nature of a
booster banquet for the Competitive
Vaudeville and speeches and songs
were in order. Mrs. Lutte Brown,
delegate to the national convention
of the Business and Professional
Wornen'S clubs, held in Oakland some
weeks ago, gave a report of that con-
vention which was a big affair with
delegates from every corner of the
United States.
Miss Harriet Shedd recited a poem
which appeared to be original, it be-
ing about the club and having a very
clever air about it. Miss Verne Rog-
ers, director of publicity for the COM
ing show, reported on the progress
of the various parts of the intricate
affair.

GEN. PATRICK PREVENTS
INJURIES BY AIRPLANE
Warning Saves Several Persons
From Whirling Propellers
at Boiling Field.

The foresightedness of Maj. Gen.
Mason NJ. Patrick, chief of the Army
Air Corps. probably saved several
persons from serious injury or death
by three whirling projectors on q
three-engined Fokker mOnoplane at
Boiling Field this morning.
Just after Col. Charles a. Lindbergh
alighted from a White House auto
mobile at the Army side after being
unsuccessful in getting off with the
Spirit of st. Louis. owing to engine
trouble, he proceeded in the direc-
ton of the pursuit plane which was
being prepared for him on the con-
crete Zine" to the south of the opera
tions office.
A crowd started in advance and
were rushing to beat Col. Lindbergh
to the plane. The three propellors of
the Fokker were turning over at
fair speed, and Gen. Patrick, swept
along with the crowd, yelled to po-
licemen, civilians and soldiers to turn
the people to the left of the plane,
at the same time ordering the me-
chanic to cut off the engines. which
he did, just as the people rushed by.

Sandwiches appeared like white rab-
bits from a magician's hat, and there
were impromptu feastS. Whole fam
lilies, seated in the sunshine along the
curb, spread food from baskets and
began to eat.
Hot-dog vendors, inevitable adjuncts
of American crowds, doled out their
wares rapidly, pushing their little
carts along the curbs.
Risk Lives to See Him.
The several unfinished structures
along the avenue were vantage points
for some of the spectators, and iron
workers and assistants scrambled high
in the air, acting as escorts for women
who risked their lives as they walked
along steel beams, to find places Where
they could see all.
The shop windows were pre-empted
by shopkeepers' friends and no shop
keeper seemed to be without host OF
friends.
The hotels facing the avenue were
crowded and from every window
peered faces.
Above all an aviator sped across the
sky, writing in smoke, medium far
less durable than the crowd thought
their hero deserved, the name OF
"Lindbergh."
Some idea of the sentiment of the
crowd was indicated in the reception
they gave the news that the other half
of 1--WE" was not going to be in the pa
rade. The amplifiers on the roof of
City Hall Numbered out the news that
Col. Lindbergh had not been able to
fly here in the Spirit of st. Louis. A
murmur, raised to a roar as it came
simultaneously from thousands of
threats, greeted this announcement.
"Ah, we wanted his plane, too" the
crowd complained.

Crowds Besiege Temporary White House
And Obtain Glimpses of Col. Lindbergh

"Well, I must go in to breakfast
now"
A little later a new crowd, which
had gathered at the portals, got a
thrill when the doors opened and the
doormen stood by.
Here he comes" ran the rumor.
For once "he" meant a guest at
the White House rather than the
President.
Everybody pressed forward. Through
the opened doors stepped two digni
fed figures-Rob Roy and Prudence
Prim, the White House collies, out
for their morning airing.
But the waiting crowd did see Lind.
bergh several times on his way to
and from church and when he de.
parted and returned on his various
missions of the day.
1t was a goodnatured, hero-worship-
ing crowd, as good natured as the
boy who was never too tired to grin
genially back at those who welcomed
him.

DELAY IN STARTING
BLAMED ON PLANE
Lindbergh Reception Committee
Says Hold-Up Not Due
to Breakfast.

The Washington Lindbergh recep-
ton committee today gave assurances
that the aviator's delay in reaching
New York was due entirely to air.
plane trouble at Boiling Field and
not the fault of either the committee
or the National Aeronautic Associa-
ton, which gave him a breakfast
before he left here. The statement
expressed the hope that New York s
reception would be a great success.
The statement, issued by John Hays
Hammond, chairman Of the commit
tee. pointed out that Lindbergh had
been taken to the flying field here
very shortly after 1885 am, East
ern standard time. He continued:
"The Washington Lindbergh recep-
ton committee greatly regrets the de-
lay of Col. Lindbergh's arrival In New
York. It was caused by loss of time
in changing airplanes and not by the
breakfast of the National Aeronautic
Association. Col. Lindbergh arrived
at the flying field in time to meet his
New York engagement.
"Our committee extends best
wishes and predicts great success of
New York's reception to its distin-
guished guest"

JAPAN WILL ASK
EQUAL NAVY RATIO
Delegation to Conference In
structed to Seek More
Auxiliary Vessels.


TOXIC, June 13.-The Associated
Press is informed from an authorita-
tive source that Japan's delegation to
the Geneva naval conference is In
structed to propose an equal ratio.
with a maximum limit, for auxiliary
vessels.
The contention IS that Japan is
theoretically entitled to have even
more cruisers and other auxiliaries
than America. owing to her greater
necessity Of protecting trade routes.
1t IS also argued that an equal
ratio with Great Britain and the
United States will constitute no
menace whatever, because it Ia viz
tually impossible for auxiliary vessels
to operate extensively across the wide
expanse Of the Pacific.
The japanese delegation, It ia IN
derstood. will declare that Japan does
not intend to build the maXimum, but
that what is wanted is liberty TO
build" equally with the other powers.
Stress Economic Condition.
The delegates will stress Japan's
financial and economic condition as
showing that, even though granted an
equal ratio, she would never enter into
q building competition or accept anr
| agreement which would force upon
her the obligation TO build TO the same
| level as the other treaty powers. 1t IS
contended that the stipulation for an
equal footing IS desirable for the sake
| Of international courtesy and good
| feeling.
| 1t is also understood that the dele
| gates will announce opposition to the
| discussion of any phase of the N.osl
| ingtOn naval limit,.tion treaty, Insia.
| ing that the Geneva conference and
| the WASHINGTON agreement are entire
| ly separate affairs. In this attitude,
| is stated, Japan IS taking into consid
Grafton possible failure Of the forth
coming conference, wishing to be as
sured that in such event the letter
| and spirit Of the Washington pact will
| continue unmarried.
| No Instructions About Bases.
| Viscount Admiral Minoru Saito, who
will head the japanese delegates is
| understood to have no instructions re
| garding discussion of the Hawaii or
| Singapore naval bases, but the delega-
| ton is prepared with data in case such
| discussion arises. The question Of
| tonnage and other technicalities are
| also left with the delegates and their
| experts.
While it is believed that the dele
| CATION is under instructions to remain
| firm regarding equality of ratio for
| auxiliary vessels, these instructions
may be changed before the opening
| of the conference, this depending con-
| siderably upon the British and Ameri-
can propositions.
