GIBSON MAY BREAK
ARMS CURB TANGLE
U. S. Representative at &C.
neva Has Covered Question
With Administration.
~ the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Ambassador Hugh Gibson, who is on
his way to Geneva to represent America
at the coming session of the League OF
Nations Preparatory Commission on
Disarmament may be carrying with
him some new suggestions from the
Washington Government for breaking
the deadlock that for months has held
the naval reduction problem tightly
within its grasp.
Before sailing for Europe, Mr.. Gibson
was a guest at the White House 1or
more than a week. Three days before
he had planned to leave the Capital
Secretary Stimson arrived from Manila
to become head of the State DEPART
nent and he, too, was President HooverS
guest at the Executive Mansion. Then,
Mr.. Gibson postponed his departure tor
two DAYS so that he might have more
extended conferences with his new
chief.
Situation Studied in Detail.
In his discussions with both Mr..
Hoover and the Secretary, Ambassador
Gibson is known to have gone over the
disarmament situation in minute de-
tail In fact, he was the frst person
consulted by Stimson after the latter
had conferred with the President ana
with Frank B. Kellogg. his predecessor
at the State Department.
As q result well informed circles
mere are of the opinion that Mr.. Gibson
left with definite instructions as to the
wishes of the administration and pos
sibly some new plan for determining
specific categories Of fighting craft,
which Mr.. Hoover considers the nub
of the problem. :.
The present stalemate is the result
Of the widely differing naval needs OF
Great Britain and the United states,
The former is well provided with 1uel-
ing bases in all sections of the globe,
and consequently small cruisers, 5000
tons or Whereabouts, fill her require
ments and she is anxious to be wei
supplied with these.
u. S. Needs Larger Cruisers.
The United States, on the other
hand. has comparatively few such facil-
tiles and needs large cruisers, ap-
preaching the 10,0O0-ton maximum
placed upon auxiliary craft by the
Washington treaty. The wider cruising
radius of the larger vessels is regarded
as offsetting the lack of fueling bases.
At the Tripartite Conference of 1927
Great Britain insisted upon limiting the
construction and maintenance Of the
large type of cruiser, but asked that
the way be left open for building the
smaller variety. To this America could
not agree and the conference ended in
a deadlock that has persisted to the
present time.
In disarmament matters, President
Hoover is following the general policy
established by the preceding admins
tration. Indeed, there is virtually unani-
nous agreement among observers here
that the Washington Government has
not receded in the slightest degree
from the stand which it took at Geneva.
However, Mr.. Hoover is sympathetic

GERMANY FACES
CABINET CRISIS
Parliamentary Veto of Fund
for Cruiser and Aviation
Cause Turmoil.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BERLIN, April i0--A cabinet crisis
threatened the German government
today as consequence of parlimen-
tary veto yesterday to appropriations
for work on the new 9,000-ton cruiser
and curtailment of aviation subsidies.
Chancellor Mueller, it was said in
parliamentary circles, appeared vexed
at failure of the program Of Finance
Minister Hilferding, and resignation
of the cabinet was regarded as easily
possible If some way were not found to
smooth out matters.
The Social Democrats opposed the
battle cruiser, succeeding in denying
the government the 10000, 900 marks
(about $4800,0 00) it had asked as the
second installment of the cruiser build
ing cost.
Curtailment Of aviation expenditures

and it is thought he may have brought
to the presidency some new idea for a
solution which would satisfy the re-
quirements Of both America and Eng
land.
In his opinion the thing to be ac-
complished first of all is the negotiation
of an agreement setting forth method
of evaluating the fighting strength OF
war vessels and of dividing navies into
categories affording comparisons on the
basis of which reductions in ornaments
might be effected. This, he feels, is
not a question of tonnage. He believes
that a great deal of misunderstanding
has arisen from a futile attempt to
compare tons with tons, whereas actual
fighting strength is the primary cri-
terion and involves not only diSplace-
ment but ornaments, armor. speed
and age.

n There has been some unexpected and unforeseen
contributing factors to this development, but the
normal business has been highly pleasing to those

\ The Mexican revolution has created a great VOL
ume Of business, both mail and passenger, for the
HCompania Mexicana de Aviacion and consequently
ghas added to the prosperity Of the airport.
In the first % days Of operation this company
brought 800 passengers into the United States from
Mexico. In the same period they transported al
fknost an equal number over the route in the opposite
direction.
This business was attributed to the revolution.
the revolution has about broken down and con-
lditions in Mexico are returning to normal rapidly.
And business is continuing good.
Other lines operating into the port report a steady
growth of passenger and mail business. This in
kludes the Texas Air Transport which carries mail
daily to San Antonio and points north. The same
Ithing is true of Cooperation Aeronautica de Trans
bortes, operating mail and passenger planes between
brownsville and Mazatlan on the Pacific Coast of
Mexico. This line was hampered in its opening days
NV the revolution but officials report the volume OF
business growing daily.
4 These lines handling mail and passengers are well
pleased with the start made.
I One of the most stable sources Of business for the
Eairport here are the planes Of the International Ar
TRANSPORTATION company, bringing in fish from 500
Ea Marine for the Tex-Mex Fisheries.
These planes are making regular trips over ONe
course into Mexico.
The business with privately owned planes grows
las the fame of the BROWNSVILLE airport spleao.
More planes are making landings from week 70 80
and the army air corps Is using the lleio Will nO'e

Health and Right Living
BY ROYAL S. COPELAN0, Nj. ID.
Former Commissioner Of Health,

"A young mother has many ques-
lions to ask about her baby. Per-
haps she was brought up in q FAM
lily where there were no babies after
her own arrival. She may never
have come in contact with little
ones. A baby is such q novelty that
she has everything to learn about
it.
I heard my own mother say many
times that hardly a day passed but
she had an agony of fear over her
first baby. The strange little chok-
ing sounds that youngsters produce
are alarming if not understood.
| wish there were some way to
give every expectant mother. the
fullest possible information about
such things. Since there are few
schools for this purpose, each Of us
must help.

that he was "the most advised per-
son in the world" The young moth

about infants.
What are some of the questions
that will occur to a young mother?
l. What Is the name of the soft
spot" in the baby's head and how
long will it last?
This is called the "fontanel."
Usually it closes and the softness
disappears between the sixteenth
and eighteenth months.
Q. Can a baby see, and do all Of
them have blue eyes?
A newly born baby does not see
well. AS it grows, the eyes develop.
Do not be alarmed if the infant
appears to be cros,-ryed. After the
fourth month this squirting will dis
appear.
Almost all new babies have blue
eyes. The permanent coloring ap-
pears later.
8. What about the senses of hear
ing, smelling and tasting?
New born infants hear little, but
in a few days the hearing is likely
to become very acute. The same
may be said of the smelling sense

Exactly. And I was going to
suggest that you didn't stop ana

little war, either. But I retract.
Why on earth shouldn't you con-
slider the consequences? All this
is nothing to do with you. Get out

frowned, and turned towards the
Royal George"
'Oo's torkin' of beating it?" he
demanded. "You wait ERE"
And thus it fell out that Ted
paid two visits in n hour to the
same public house.
Charlie waited patiently for him
to come out again. If he felt a
little guilty in having roped Ted
into the unsavory business, he con-
soled himself with the thought
that he could not perform that un-
savory business himself (since he,
obviously, would be Immediately
recognized), and that the business
was inspired by the highest of mo-
tives. Moreover, he had told the
fellow to go, and had used no
coercion.
The minutes went by. The dis
comfort of Charles mind struggled
against the comfort of his body,
for the bush was a gracious one,
and fattened itself on a carpet of
the softest grass. The sun blazed
down. The comfort began to win.
Charles eyes closed.
But all at once they opened again.
The ragged eavesdropper had re-
turned, and was paving his shoul-
der.
"Hallo!" jerked Charlie.
"Oi!" whispered Ted, hoarsely,
Not so bloomin' loudl"
Charlie glanced about him. In
the distance, the back of Simon
Brill was disappearing. There was
no sign of the little man in the
check suit.

Mr.. Lorimer: How would you like to write some
thing for us, Mr.. Smith?
Mr.. Smith: I don't know: I've always had an
idea it must be nice to be a writing man. He meets
so many interesting people, doesn't he.
Mr.. Lorimer: You'd be surprised. We have a lot
of dandy fellows on the staff-Edde Cantor, George

Now I had a couple of dogs in Albany that were
Mr.. Lorimer: No. we don't want you to write dog
stories, either. Getting back to compensation rather
than the subject matter, what a writer should con-

and the prestige he gains. Why are you smiling?
Mr.. Smith: A writing friend warned me that
magazine editors always pulled that one.
Mr.. Lorimer: Possibly. At any rate, the question
comes down to whether or not you care to write for
us. I think you can leave it to us to see that the fl
nancial aspect is adjusted to your satisfaction.
Mr. Smith: I left a financial aspect to the dem
cornpeioo committee and lonk what ham
pened.
MIR. Lorimer: You'll have no trouble with us In
that respect. Now, assuming we get together, what
would you like to write about?

MI. Lorimer: I'm afraid not.
Mr.. Smith: Senator Moses?
Mr.. Lorimer: No, Al.
MI. Smith: I thought you magazine editors liked
red hot stuff.
Mr.. Lorimer: Yes, but our insurance rates would
not apply in a case where we let you write about
Moses and Heflin. What we want you to do is a Sc

accept, but there's only one stipulation I want to
make.
