the world that We should further reduce and limit naval arms. Today We are engaged in q most hopeful discussion with other governments leading to this end.
 "Thcse are proposals which would preserve our national defenses and yet would relieve the backs of those who toll from gigantic expenditures and tho world from the hate and fear which flows from the rivalry in building war ships"
 Asserting that never have we had president who was either a paci- fist or q militarist." he recalled that "Ercat aid" had been given by th" chief executives for the last half century to 'the advance of concil- iation, arbitration and judicial dc termination for settlement of inter- national disputes.'
 "These are the steps which pre- vent war" he held. "I.ately we and other nations have pledged our selves never to use war as an instru- mcnt of national policy. And thore is another step which follows with impcllinG logic from these advances. That is the reduction of arms"

 The presidents address was broaI- cast last night over the Columbia chain in connection with the dcdica- ton of it's new studio in New York city. It was the first public uttorance in which he has mentioned the arms reduction question since the n"%oti- ations with Great Britain were un- dcrtakcn.
 Washington. September 10.-fP- One of the underlying causes of the disruption Of the tripartite naval limitation conference at Geneva in 1927 has received comparatively lit- tie consideration in the public dis cussions of the present Anglo-Amcr- ican negotiations.
 This is the question of naval auxiliarios-swift peace time pas scnror liners capable of immediate conversion into inch gun cruisers and commerce., raiders in tim" of war. Great Britain has a preponder- ance of this type Of craft, totalinG in excess of :. 900. 900 tons with a ratio of some four or five to one as com- pared to the United States. It is well established that this po- l tcntial cruiser strength for Britain 1 was the motivating influence on the mind of American naval experts 1T i demanding for this country a large 1 fleet of S-inch gun cruisers hotf i during the 1927 barley and the present Anglo-Amcrican ncgotia' tions.
 Eo Open Discussion l While consideration of these 1 auXiliarics never reached the poin of open discussion at Geneva, tho American delegates always ha( | this in mind, and they were of the | firm opinion that it was the samf i consideration which moved the
 British in their insistcnce on limiting

 Since the small cruiser can carr, only a limited number even Of G inch guns, it would prove no matcl

Controversies Eliminated

Washington, Sept. IS tF9 - Si multaneously with a conference ui senate republicans today in an ef- fort to present as united front as possible on highly debatahle sec tions of the tariff bill, it was learn ed that the finance committee ma jority had agreed to eliminate two controversial provisions iu the hon. of diminishing prospective opposi- tion.
 One provision to be stricken out would have changed the old system of equalizing differences in cost Of production in determining duties and made differences in conditions of competition" the formula 10 h. followed.
 Approved by House
 This section, approved by the house and revised by the finance committee republicans to include transportation costs to ports of en- try of competitive foreign and do- mestic articles as q factor in con- sideration of competitive conditions is involved in the disputed flexible provisions against which democrats and republican independents hay" announced opposition.
 The second provision would have barred from entry into the lnite! States articles manufactured abroad bearing trade marks owned by citizens of this country. It was agreed to restore the house lan- guage which would permit impor- tation of such articles with consent of the owner of the trade mark.
 Makes List Public
 As this action became known the finance committee made public | list of, an additional 130 names | corporations about which it desire. information from the treasury to tax returns.

NEW SLIDE SCENERY
OPENS STAGE SCOPE
Austrian Scientists Produce Method
That May Revo1utionize
Dramas Settings.

VIENNA (N.A.NA.).- Two Austrian
scientists have discovered how to project
scenery through magic lantern slides on
to white back cloth in such way
that the actors can stand within two
feet of the scenery without throwing a
shadow.
The audience will be unable to distin-
guish the projected scenery from that
made in the ordinary way, and the dis
covery is likely to revolutionlze the pro-
duction of plays and revues. The slides
cost ABOUT $40 each to make.
This means, In all probability, the end
Of one of the greatest limitations of the
theater, the small number of places in
which the action may take place, and
the discovery should enable the stage to
compete all the better with the talkies
