AMERICAS DESIRES
 |0N NAVAL STRENGTH
Series of Proposals for Govern.
 ing Ship Quitting

washington. June IS (UP)- American proposals for limitation of auxiliary naval ships to be pre-. sented to the Geneva tri-power con. ference were completed today.
 Ambassador Hugh Gibson. head of the American delegation. will out. line the proposals in general form at the opening conference sessions. either next Monday or Tuesday.
 Tho United Press understands the formal proposal and the confiden- tial instructions determining Ameri- can policy toward anticipated Brit sh and Japanese moves recommend:
 1-Establishment of . 5-5-3 ratio for auxiliary craft for tho United States. Great Britain and Japan, similar to the Washington confer ence ratio on capital ships. opposi- tion to Japan's desire for a larger ratio for herself.
 2-Retention of the 10000 figure as maximum tonnage for cruisers opposing a possible British Japanese move for 5000 or 5000 maximum tonnage.
 s-Retentlon of s-inch guns for cruisers. opposing possible British policy q a 6-gun limit which { sutabl For rse on merchant ships and thus favorable to nations with large merchant marines capable ol wartime conversion.
 4-Acceptance. if necessary, of an American equality cruiser ratio based on Britain's present superior tonnage and necessitating an Ameri- can building program. rather than insistance on reduction of British strength to equal the present Ameri- can cruiser tonnage.
 5-Opposition to any effort to re- duce tonnage figures of capital ships or redefine capital ships al- ready fixed by the five-power Wash ington treaty.
 6-Blockins of a possible Japan ese move to discuss Pacific fortifi- cations.
 7-Refusal to discuss the Panama Canal or so-called freedom of inter- national waterways.
 The American policy outlined is understood to be equally acceptable to the administrators diplomatic and naval advisers, and is there- fore not expected to incur naval disp1easure here as did features of the Washington treaty.
 Geneva, Switzerland, June IS Rt- An indication that Great Britain may seek to reopen the question of the size of cruisers was seen by some quarters in a declaration made by w. c. Bridgeman, first lord of the admiralty, on his arrival today te attend the three-power naval con. ference with the United States and Japan.
 The declaration of the British del. egate was that all questions concern. ing limitation of warshios would be open for discussion at the confer ence, which opens Monday.
 He announced that he would la, definite proposals before the meet ing and hoped the discussion would make it easier for nations not par ticipating in the conference to ad. here later to any principles agreed upon. This was an allusion to France and Italy. without whom 1t l: thought Great Britain would hesi' tate to make binding accord con. corning auxiliary craft. particularly submarines.
 Hugh Gibson, American delegate told the press that the exact status of the French and Italian observer: at the conference had not yet beer determined but that 1t was hoped they would participate to the fullest possible extent.

GRASSHOPPERS STRIP
 LAND OF VEGETATION
Northern California Invaded by Pests-Ehorts to Stop Them
 in Vain

Klamath Falls. Ore. June 13 R- Legions of grasshoppers continued their advance in the Tule Lake dis trict of Modoc and siskiyou coun- ties in northern California today, threatening to strip moro than 10000 acres of grazing and grain land of every vestige of green.
 Efforts to halt the insect hosts to date have roved ineffective. as the hoppers have been swarming out of egr beds in q continual stream faster than they can be killed off. Thirty tons of poisoned bran and molasses have been distHbuted in the light to hold the front against tho hoppers.
 Covering from one-quarter to one half mide . day, one division has 8 battle front of from 800 to 1000 feet and extends back quarter of . mile.
 Az the hosts advance, tho first impression is of the ground moving. Closer inspection reveals millions of the hoppers, about 100 to the square foot.
