MAY CHANGE ITINERARY

Stanford University, Calf, Nov.
= v,13.-(P)-Herbert Hoover may find
it necessary to extend the itinerary
of his good will tour to Latin
America considerably beyond the
scope contemplated when he decided
to embark upon his history making
journey.
Urgent invitations for the presi-
dent-elect to visit countries in both
South and Central America which
were excluded from the original
schedule are now coming and his
40-day itinerary may be extended
to two months or slightly longer.
Mexico, Colombia and Ecuador are
among the southern republics which
have asked that The president-elect
include them in his tour, their invi-
tations being Joined with that from
Bolivia, the visit to which would in
volve a considerable trip, in addi-
ton to that which must be made
4, tg the goodwill mission in moving
from Valparaiso to Buenos Aires.
May Change Stops
Under the original plans, the
battleship Maryland bearing Mr..
Hoover and his party, was to have
touched first at Balboa, Panama
Canal Zone, and then moved past
Colombia and Ecuador to Peru,
with Chile the next country to be
visited. Both Colombia and Ecua-
dor, through their ministers, have
asked that the party call at their
capitals.
The Mexico City government
also desires to have the party visit
that country on their return trip to
the United States, with the pres
ident-elect going from Vera Cruz to
Mexico City by rail.
1t is settled, however, that the
party will leave San Pedro, Calf,
next Monday and it may be that a
9top will be made at Mexican port
on the west coast, en- route to Bal
boa.
Fletcher to Go
Besides being attended by Ambas-
sador Henry P. Fletcher, as the Of
ficial representative of the state de-
partment, the president-elect is to
have a naval aide, probably Com
mander Augustin T. Beauregard,
grandson Of the famous Confederate
general, p. G. Beauregard.
President-elect Hoover turned his
attention today from the prepara-
tions for his South American trip to
receive William J. Donovan, assist
ant to the attorney general, a close
personal friend who stood high in
his council of advisers, both during
the pre-convention and prediction
campaigns.
Both before and since the election,
Donovan's name has been spoken of
frequently in the discussions of the
attorney general for the Hoover
cabinet.

It was the opinion of Siege, who
ordered Mckee held, that Mckee
was in the automobile from which
young Acher was shot and either
fatally wounded or crippled for life.
The shots were fired, the commits

of Mckee.
McKee's arrest came after he had
telephoned police that his automo-
bile, which answers the description
Of the car from which Acher was
shot, had been stolen sometime Sat-
urday night or Sunday morning.
Detectives found the car last night
q short distance from where Mckee
reported it had been parked when it
was stolen.
The car when found was locked,
both doors and ignition. The right
fender was dented and on the rum
ming board was some paint such as
was scraped from Archer's car when
the gunman's machine glanced
against it, starting the alteration
which led to the shooting.
Mckee and Church told detectives
they had been drinking together
Saturday night and early Sunday,
and that Mckee had driven Church
home about midnight. Mckee then
went to = Wacker Drive sub level

Fonck and Udet, Enemies
in Air War, Now Friends
French and German Aces Meet,
Swap Compliments at Ber-
lin Show

Berlin, Nov. 13.-"I'm very happy
to meet you," said the German to the
Frenchman. but haven't we met
beforc?"
They had-these two we'll.
groomed men, vigorous in their
thirties, who smiled at each other
and cordially shook hands when for.
mally presented in the lobby of q
Berlin hotel.
One was Captain Rene Fonck, the
greatest of French aces, who shot
down n" German planes during the
war. The other was Captain Ernst
Udet, the greatest of surviving Ger
man aces, who shot down 62 Allied
machines.
Last Met in the Air
Their last previous meeting had
been shortly before the Armistice
ten years ago. Instead of smiles
and pleasant words they were
matching flying skill and marks
manship as they rode through the
shell-infested skies over the battle
front.
Both were great craftsmen, and
they came through alive. Now they
are friends.
"Yes, l have found new friend
in the person of an old enemy
said Captain Fonck. 1--WE were
cunning for each other in the old
days, but we can meet pleasantly
together now. We talk the same
language-the language of the fly
ing man."
Fonck's Gun Jammed
II had great luck one day." said
Captain Udet as they talked togeth-
er of war days. "You shot down
three of my comrades, and probably
the only reason / am able to shake
your hand today is that your ma
chine gun jammed just in time-for
me-"
Fonck was here to visit the Ger
man aviation show. Jean Marbeuf
Berlin correspondent for a Paris
newspaper, good Frenchman and
an admirer Of Udet, brought the two
famous aviators together.
If these two men had been left
alone together 10 years ago one Of
them would not have lived" said
Marbeuf. "Now they are able to
meet in a friendly and fraternal
spirit like two athletes after 9
sporting match. The interview be-
tween the two should be a red-letter
day in the history of Franco Ger
man peace. They have set an ex-
ample for old adversaries which will
do more to seal friendships than
political maneuvers."
How Udet Fought
Fonck and Udet exchanged many
"reminiscences. Fonck was particu-
larly interested when the German
ace explained:
II used to wait until night was
about to fall and then, flying at q
height Of $4,000 to $4,000 feet,
would ge; seven or eight miles be.
hind your lines, turn my tail to-
ward the setting sun, and wait for
your machines to return home. With
the sun in their eyes they were easy
to pick off,"
Udet spoke admiringly Of the
French commandant Happe, saying
II remember on the 18th Of October,
1915, q fight in which had shot
down two planes over Oberndor1
when recognized Happe. We knew
him by his beard, which we could
see flying in the wind. What audac-
ity! We regarded him as an heroic
madman."
Both Plead for Peace
Their talk of war ended with
words Of peace.
"When you look back upon al
these things. how can one help be-
ing for peace?" remarked udet.

asked the views Of the ex-service
men I am sure there would be q
crushing majority in favor Of
peace"

VOLCANO LAVA
FLO W SLOWER
Devout Credit Stoppage With
Exposing Of Sacred Veil Of
st. Agatha

Catania, Sicily, Nov. 13.-(AP)-
mount Etna, which has been pouring
forth streams Of molten lava, de.
stroying villages and orchards, was
believed today by Professor G.
Ponte, director Of the meteorological
institute, to be no longer cause OF
anxiety to the Sicilian countryside
He found that the eruption was en-
tering its final phase, with the lava
showing signs of solidifying and
emissions from the smoking noun
tain lessening.
His announcement was made after
the veil of st. Agatha, which, &C.
cording to tradition, has arrested the
flow Of lava toward Catania in the
past, had been exposed to the cathe-
dral by order Of the Archbishop
Cardinal Nava.
In ordering that the veil be ex-
posed, the Archbishop issued an ap-
peal for prayers by all in the dio.
cese. He exhorted the population to
remain calm and maintain their
faith. On previous occasions pray.
ers to st. Agatha were said when
an eruption occurred and the lava
stopped flowing.
Professor Ponte stated that in the
Naca region the cataract of lava
was much below its former level and
showed evident slowing up. It ap-
peared quite viscous, with the sur.
face only little heated.
The professor predicted that the
flow would be prolonged for about
three weeks with alternate slowing
up and resumption of it's march to-
ward the sea. He thought that the
principal stream might reach the
sea within 10 days. When it did, he
said there would probably be an ex-
plosive display of smoke and vapor
greater than produced by similar
eruption in 1869 or by the Strom.
boli disaster Of 1927.

No Signs Seen of Retaliation

Washington, Nov. 13.-(P)-Signs
of retaliation against members OF
the senate who bolted party lines in
the Hoover-Smith battle are failing
to take shape-unlike the situation
four years ago when four Republi-
cans were elected from their party
councils for supporting the late Rob-
ert M. La Toilette.
Each party this year has a pair
such recalcitrants. Senator'S Nor.
ris, of Nebraska, and Blaine, Of Wis
consin, left the Republican ranks
during the campaign to advocate the
election of Governor Smith.
The veteran senator Simmons, OF
North Dakota, ranking minority
member of the senate finance COM
mittee, and Senator Thomas Heflin
of Alabama, denounced the Demo.
cratic presidential nominee.
II either party is contemplating
action against it's senator's who de.
clined to support the national ticket
there is no sign o. it among the first
of the members to return to the cap.
itol from the campaign. In fact
few members desire to discuss it.
However, Senator Norris who
holds one of the "big five" COM
mittee chairmanships Of the senate
the judiciary committee indicated
today he had heard rumors Of re.
venge against him, but added he
knew of no definite steps.
Four years ago, with a substantial
majority in the senate, the Repub.
licans decided not to invite Senators
Frazier and Ladd of North Dakota;

of Wisconsin into their conferences
The first three had supported Sen.
ator La Toilette in the 1924 pres.
