Philadelphia. Nov. 1S.-(P)--A
new 1r, in which Americas pros
perity will be turned to develop
ment of it's resources and defenses
and toward promotion of peace be-
tween all nations was portrayed by
President Coolidge last night in an
address before the Union League of
Philadelphia.
Choosing this organization. found
ed in the trying days of the Civil
War, for review of his admin
istration's achievements and it's
plans for the future, the president
cautioned that new test has arisen
for the American people-the test
of prosperity-and expressed the
conviction that the great mass of
people realize "the doctrine Of ease
is the doctrine Of surrender and
decay"
The country. he said, has reached
the zenith Of its prosperity, the
end of it's task of postwar recon-
strr ction is in sight and the time
when internal improvements may be
considered i at hand.
Flood Control Important
"Flood control must be completed
the president declared. "A water
way system for the Mississippi VAL
ley and it's tributaries, with one arm
reaching to the Gulf, and another
to the Atlantic, probably through
the st. Lawrence, is only ques-
tion of time. The Colorado River
project is pressing, the Columbia
Basin not far distant.
"On the sea we shall round out
our Navy with more submarines
and more cruisers, and private
ownership should provide it with an
auxiliary merchant marine of fast
cargo boats.s On land we shall be
building up our air forces, espe-
cially by encouraging commercial
aviation"
The ability to do these things,
Mr.. Coolidge declared, is the result
of "past insistence on economy in
national expenditures" which SIM
ultaneously has made possible three
reductions of taxes with the
promise Of further moderate lift
ing of the burden in the next con-
gress. The principal weakness ex-
listing. in his opinion, is the remain
ing $4,000, 100000 Of the national
debts which are described as q men-
ace to the national credit.

rifle explosion tore the steamer
Jacob Luckenbach to- pieces today

and blowing at least one man over

The explosion occurred on the

where he awaited treatment for his
injuries, Raymond Carson said the
explosion shook the ship "like q
terrier shakes rat"
"From the way that boat rocked
/ didn't ser how any of us got
away" Carson said.
Like the explosion in Pittsburgh
on Monday last, when more than a
score of persons were killed, an
acetylene torch and a gas tank were
believed to be the cause OF today's
blast.

acetylene torch preparing to cut

"when something happened.

HUGE NAVY PROGRAM WILL BE PRESENTED
 AT NEXT CONGRESS
FAILURE OF GENEVA CONFER ENcE LIMITING WARcRAFT
 TONNAGE RESPONSIBLE

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2s. R)-A perceptible move is on foot to bring about the naval building program forcibly before the approaching Con- gresS.
 While plans for big navy men are in somewhat nebulous state there is current thought among a number of members that the failure of the Gen. eva conference to reach an agreement limiting warcraft tonnage is not af- fected by the Washington arms treaty and calls for serious consideration.
 The advisability of providing funds for additional fighting craft will be taken up by Representative Britten of Illinois, ranking republican on the House Naval committee. He declar- ed he will introduce bin proposing the construction, over five year per- iod, of 30 cruisers of 10000 tons each and two airplane carriers.

BAHAI, Brazil, Oct. 28. (P)-The be- lief that the Captain and at least 400 passengers and crew of the sunken vessel Principessa Maralda went down with the vessel was expressed by sur vivors reaching here despite the re- ports from other sources that only . hat full of the more than 1900 aboard were lost.
 Tales of horror which filled the night were told by the first victims to reach port aboard the French steamer Mosella. Despite the warmth of the water and the calmness of the sea four of those rescued by Mosella died from exposure before reaching port.
 The survivors said many others rescued will not live and said it would not be surprising if the final death toll amounted to between 500 and 800.
