GENEVA, March 20 E9-The Unit
States delegates attending the ses-

paratory commission on disarmament
would like to see the worlds armc-

Ii This was made evident today when

President Loudon Of the commits
sion had announced that the dele
gates were unable to agree on the
question of reserves before Mr. Glib .
son delivered his address which
cleared the path to possible recon
si0eration of the matter. Mr.. Gibson
proposed the creation Of two cate

MacMurray Suggests Imme-

Americans.
MARINES MOVING
Troops Will Leave East In
Six Trains for Embarka-
ton Port.

WASHINGTON, March 20. EO--De-
spite an apparent lull in the storm
of c h n e anti foreignism which
burst at Nanking last week, official
word was received here today that the
situation at Wuhu, farther up the
Yangste river, was worse and trouble
might be expected there at any mo-
ment.
At the same time message, for
warded to the state department by
Minister MacMurray at Peking, sug-
gested immediate withdrawal of all
Americans in nationalist territory,
and in view of the outbreak at Nam
king, "the undertaking of some action
sufficiently strong to deter the PERI
petration of similar incidents else
where"
The message was unsigned, and de-
partment officials were of the opinion
that it probably came from Consul
John K. Davis, who is aboard an
American warship at Nanking.
Concident with the receipt of these
advices, actual movement across the
continent of the 1900 additional ma
rines ordered to China got under way
on the Atlantic seaboard, with indi-
cations that it would be month be-
fore the transport Henderson, which
will take them across the Pacific,
reaches Shanghai. At the White
House it was said on PresidentsCool-
idge's behalf that he was opposed to
any merging of American forces with
those of other powers, although he
expected the utmost cooperation.
The official reports from Marking
accomplished the belief of American
investigators there that "the cam
paign of terrorism and insult to for
eigners was not only officially coun-
tenanced and directed (by nationalist
leaders,, but even pre-arranged.
The incident at Marking could
hardly have been more outrageous a
message relayed by MacMurray said,
adding that there had been two at
tempts at criminal assault on Ameri-
can women during the rioting.

Says Hopi Indians
Need No SubWays

No one who has seen the Hopi VIII
lagos perched higllS on their rocky
promontories overlooking the dry but
gorgeous Arizona desert can be sur
prised at the victory Of the Hopi In
dian in the long-distance races. He
comes from one of the toughest stocks
in America, endowed with endurance
thanks to the age-long battles with
nature.
His people have always been good
runners. It is not uncommon for a
Hopi farmer to travel twelve or fif-
teen miles to his corn patch and back
in a day, and to do this day in and
out. Unlike his neighbor the Navajo,
he does not use horses but goes on
his own lightly shod feet. Thus from
an early age he is trained TO cover
distance-and covers it at a speed
which would be trying to most white
men.

In Which Dick

Grand Canyon, AriZ..
June f3, 1927.
Editor, Coconino Sun,
Flagstaff, Arizona
Ny Dear Editor:
Once upon a time it was thought by
many that proper and sufficient
highway from a point on the National
Old Trails highway to the Grand Can
yon national park was necessity a1ld
would be a good thing for the state
and nation and all concerned.
Of course this was an absurd idea
in the first place and now since the
Lees Ferry bridge may be built and
the North Rim of the Canyon so
qrandly featured, the idea of road
on the South Rim fades into misty
and distant future.
I wonder if you can advise what,
if anything, is to be traded OF IN
order to secure a $1,300,000 road pro-
gram for a highway to Zion national
park and Mt. Carmel?
You will recall that all efforts to
secure an appropriation, or even con-
sideration Of an appropriation, for 9
road to the Grand Canyon national
park, met with, "You sell US the Irall
and we will see what can be done.
It may be that there would be a
chance to get highway to the Grand
Canyon on the South Rim if there was
nice, big, rugged mountain to tun-
mel through and thus have added costs
and scenery to be looked at through
windows in the tunnel.
OF course a tunnel could be run un-
der Red Butte. If this was done, a
shaft could be run to the top of the
Butte and with an elevator one could
go to the summit and watch the sun
set and dance to the noise OF a Jazzy
orchestra.
| believe that the reason for no
highway to the Grand Canyon ma
tional park, on the South Rim, is that
building such highway is too simple
and inexpensive.
Yours very truly,
