 Conference Probable
 The current London conversations are expected to a long way toward making possible preliminary naval limitation conference among the world powers to consider not ontv capital ships but cruisers, destroyers and submarines. It is the belief of officials here that such a meeting would eliminate the necessity for calling conference under he terms of the Washington arms li,ui- tation treaty.
 London is looked upon as the probable meeting place for the ey- pected preliminary conference, since Prime Minister Macdonald would be most likely to issue the cll. Agree ment of Japan.

 Burritt Field Meet

Field day events held sway over all other activities at the Burritt grounds Tuesday afternoon. The meet was under the direction of Miss I Helen Bonney and Charles Hagearty Competition was very keen through out the whole affair; nevertheless good sportsmanship was evident on all sides. Separate events were run off for both girls and boys besides some events which were open to both.
 The term field day seems to be a misnomer unless the usual hun dred yard dash takes place. How ever such was not the opinion in this case. Several of the young men in the playground thought that this special event should be lengtilaAed to two hundred yards. So Q challenge ensued between Dominic Vanto and Nick Pinto. Nicks agile feet brought him in the lead by eight and a half seconds.
 It would be almost next to impos- sible to give the different details Of all the events so we will satisfy our selves in giving the results Of all the activities.

Hoover Reiterates Belief That Naval Reduction Is Tremendous
 Peace Step'' In Letter to Legion
Answers McNutt Criticism By Pointing Out That Parity of Strength Is Goal-Sticks to
 Original Theory.

Washington, July 31 R}-The agreement between the United States and Great Britain looking to con- plete equality in the strength of their navies is held out by President Hoover as n answer to critics of his decision to postpone work on the three-cruisers which were to have been lad down in navy yards next fall.
 Quoting ''our naval authorities" as regarding parity with Great Britain as "a complete defense of the United States in any contingency" the president has taken occasion to set forth the importance he attaches to the London agreement in a letter re- plying to criticisms of his cruiser

DIPLOMATIC POSTS UNDERGO CHANGES
Many Ambassadors to Be Re
 placed by Hoover

Washington. July 31.-LP)-When President Hoover and Secretary Stimson complete their reorganiza- tion of the diplomatic service only five, at most, and perhaps only four of the 14 ambassadors who served under Calvin Coolidge will remain at their posts.
 Many changes among the 4 min isters accredited to the smaller for eign nations also will be made. but relatively speaking they will not be on the wholesale scale of those in the higher diplomatic posts.
 Two Already Replaced
 Alanson B. Houghton already has been replaced at London by Charles Gates Dawes. and a successor has been selected for Henry P. Fletcher as ambassador to Italy, MT. Fletcher haVlng decided 10 retire after quarter century of foreign service. Others whose resignations have been or are expected to be accepted are:
 Jacob Gould Schurman. of New York, am mbassador to Germany. Ogden H. Hammond of New Jersey ambassador to Spain. William S. CulbertsOn, of Kansas, ambassad dor to Chile. Alexander P. Moore. of Pennsylvania. ambassador to Peru. Noble Brandon Judah. of Illinois, ambassador to Cuba. Charles Mac Veagh, of New York, ambassador to Japan.
 senator Walter E. Edge, of New Jersey, will succeed the late Myron T. Herrick, of Ohio. as ambassad dor to France, but the names of the suc- cessors to Henry P Fletcher and the other ambassadors who are to retire still are withheld.
 Grew Will Remain
 There have been reports that Jo- seph G. Grew, ambassador to turkey, would be transferred or would resign but these are without Mr. Grew is a career man and has seen service in the state department as we'll as in the foreign field.
 The ambassadors who have been asked by President Hoover to re- man at their posts are Robert Woods Bliss, of Washington. D. C.. at Buenos Aires; Hugh S. Gibson. of .ailfornla, at Brussels; Edwin " Morgan, of New York. at Rio De 
 janelro. and Dwight w. Morrow. of New Jersey, at Mexico City. Mir BLISS and Mir. Gibson are career mon. while MT. Morgan has been at the Brazilian capital since 1912.
 Aside from the retirement of Am oassadors Culbertson at Santiaeo ma Moore at Lima, many other manages in the diplomatic represen- auon in Latin America are in nros- 'ect. President Hoover determined lpoh some of these changes after he lad completed his good will tour to ne southern republics. and Secretary 1 'tlmson IS understood to have decid- | d upon others.
 Eberhardt to Retire
 Outstanding among the chanees ir 'a. A merlca probably will be the etirement of Charles C. Eberhardt hanSas' as minister to Nicaragua. A. Bading. of Wisconsin as lihlster to Ecuador. and r. S 'rant smith as minister to Uruguv
 Nlllls C. Cook has resigned as mister 10 Venezuela and there has cen some talk Of a successor for Caffery in Colombia One | two other changes both in South ho Central America also are look TOT and many shifts and renIace- leil's are likely 10 be made amono le ministers in Europe and inc ear and Far East.

N YEW YORK, July 23-Jess Nc
N Mahon shows two champions in
VI non-titular contests at Ebbets
/ Field Wednesday evening when
Andre Routis, world feather
weight champion. tackles Al Singer. the
brilliant East Slider, and Mushy Gala
han, holder of the junior welterweight
title, collides with Jack Berg OF Eng
land in 10-round bouts. Another 10
rounder shows Stanislaus Loyaza against
joey Medill of Chicago.
Routis has been a sorry champion TO
date. After winning the featherweieht
title on a hairline decision from Tony
Cazonerj the Frenchman made trip
to Boston and was soundly trounced by
Honeyboy FTanegan. RoutiS made a
trip back hcme and when he was or
dered to defend his title his manager
went all the way to Baltimore to pick
on a practically unknown by the name
of Buster Brown. The latter was
knocked out in three rounds and Routis'
title was safe for another six-month
period. Jack Zeramby, the Lynn south
paw, gave Routis severe trouncing re-
Gently and the Frenchman's stock took
a decided drop.
How we'll the champion will go
against Al Singer depends a good deal
on the kind of fight the youngster
makes. II Singer has forgotten his
knockout at the hands of Ignacio
Fernandez and decides to step around
nimbly and flash his rapier-like left
jab he has good chance of out-scoring
the bullish Aoutis II, on the other
hand, Singer tries to Outright the
Frenchman and makes the mistake of
boring in and trading punches he Is
apt to find himself looking up at his
opponent from the resined floor.
Singer, growing boy, will not try to
make the featherweight poundage and
will tip the scales at 100 pounds. For
this reason the title will not be at
stake, but the fight will demonstrate
just how high the flashing youngster
will 60 in his chosen profession.
Mushy Callahan has a title not rec
ognized In this State. It is Just as well,
because Berg cannot get down that low,
and, judging the Englishman on his two
showings against Bruce Flowers, he
should show the way home to the title
holder managed by Jack Kearns. If it
were a question Of speed Berg would
leave Callahan flatfooted. But Berg
took the count at the hands Of Bill
Petrole. Callahan boasts good left
hook and may land on the button.
There Is a likelihood of knockout
being scored, as both boys can hit hard
and sharply.
