LOS ANGELES, Nov. % tR.--
The story of major disaster that
occurred in the vicinity of what is
now Winslow, Ariz., more than 1000
years ago, destroying all animal
life within radius of so miles,
was told tonight by DIR. Mars F.
Baumgardt, astronomer and scien-
tist, in describing the great meteor
of central Arizona at meeting OF
the amateur telescope makers and
astronomers Of Los Angeles.
According to DR.. Baun1gardt, the
meteor, believed to lie 1900 feet be-
meath the sotathern rim of the
huge crater, "a miles from Win
slow, is estimated to be 400 feet in
diameter, weighing approximately
100000 tons.
In recCnStructing the C h a Oti
scenes in the Hopi Indian country
at the time the giant meteor. fell,
DIR. Baumgardt based his cOnclu-
siOns and observations chiefly upon
the findings of scientists who have
tested the lower strata with drills.
The meteor, probably small
comet, he said, is believed to have
approached the earth from the
north at a speed Of from two to
10 miles second. It struck with
such force that it pulverized the
solid limestone and rock into pow
der, spIashing it out much as a
pebble would splash into a pool OF

WASHINGTON. Nov. 22 ,A1--A
resolution which would request
President Coolidge to enter nego-
tiatinns with France and like

Iawing war has been prepared by
Senator Capper, republican, Kan
sas, for submission to the next
congress.
Senator Capper, who is men,

In the preamble of his resoiu-

water. When it had expended its
energy, it came to rest buried 1900
feet below the earth's surface,
leaving a gigantic crater where it
struck.
Those who hold to the theory
that the crater was formed by a
falling meteor point to the fact
that diamond drills have revealed
that the rock strata at depth OF
14OO feet is Undisturbed indicating
that the crater was not formed by
volcano or tremendous steam
explosion, DIR. Baumgardt said.
This theory is supported further
by the fact that oil well drills at
the southern side of the crater
penetrated to a depth of 1900 feet
and struck a substance SO hard
that it chewed the drills to bits.
This, the speaker pointed out,
compares fsscrably with the ma
ture of small meteors found in the,
vicinity, composed of iron, nickel
and carbon, a substance so hard
that it is virtually impossible to
cut it.
Arizona mining concerns, accord
ing to DR.. Baumgardt, are financ-
ing further exploration of the
crater with the intention of sink
ing shaft to the hidden meteor.
If the celestial body is found, it is
believed that enough platinum and
iridium will be found to make the
venture profitable.

WASHINGTON, Nov % Up = In
unqualified terms President Coolidge
let it be known today that the first
specific attempt to force the republi-
can convention to nominate him as it's
candidate next year had incurred his
displeasure,
Breaking q silence of nearly four
months, the White House disclosed the
presidents views in sharp criticism
OF the movement started by a Boston
broker to circularize the country by a
chain letter system in an endeavor TO
build up such dominant sentiment
for Mr. Coolidge that his nomination
by the republicans would amount to a
nationwide demand
In a direct positive manner it was
made known that the president dis
approved the. circulation of the petit
tions, that he failed to see that any
good could come from the move and
that he hoped that their circulation
would be discontinued,
The manner in which this first
amplification of what Mr.. Coolidge is
thinking IN connectit\ with his politi-
cal future since his famous Black
Hills "do not choose" statement of
August 2, brought forth situation of
constants and contrasts. Like his pro-
nouncement last summer, today's state
ment was made to newspaper CORE
spondents and, again, it caused a stir
such as only something Of the first
importance can do
But, unlike the statement of August,
which was neatly typed on small, plain
white slips of paper and handed to
the correspondents personally by the
president, today's announcement was
made verbally and without the auth

Try to Send BOrghi
To His Death Among
Fascist Of ItaIV

Attorneys for Armando Borghi, who
has been ordered deported from the
United States to Italy where he faces
death at the hands of the fascist,
have appealed to the United States
Department of Labor to permit him
to leave this country at his own ex-
pense for some other country Of his
own choosing.
Over Four Months.
Borghi is a citizen of Italy who
entered the United States as a tenn
porary visitor on November 9, 1926.
He is held for deportation to Italy on
the charges that he remained in the
United States beyond the four months
allowed him and that he is an alien
anarchist and is here in violation of
the immigration Act.
In answer to the first charge,
Borghi has stated that it was his i'm
preston, after obtaining legal advice,
that his visa was good for one year.
It read, "This visa is good for one
year provided the passport continues
in force" Borghi attempted to have
his passport extended The Italian
consul at Boston took it away instead,
stating that Borghi was mot quail
fled to be an Italian citizen" because
of his anti-fascist sentiments.
Is Anarchist.
As to the second charge, Borghi adj
mits that he is a philosophical anar-
chist. He stated specifically in his
examinations that he does not believe
in violence against constituted au-
thority or government officials. He
is a highly intellectual and we'll
educated man.
His deportation in the face of his
professed anti-fascist views means
death-either execution under the
forms of the fascist courts instituted
specially to punish offenders or at the
hands of the fascist mob. Borghi's
house in Italy has been burned by the
fascist. His son has been rechris-
tened and not allowed to leave the
country but is being held as hostage
to insure his fathers return.
Legal aid for Borghi's defense has
been secured by the American Civil
Liberties Union.
