BOARD
ACTION AID IN
AIRPORT MOVE
Right of Way Grant
for Oliver Avenue
Extension.

Board of works members approved
the recommendation of Mayor L.
Ert Slack that the city grant a
right-of-way for the proposed ex-
tension of Oliver avenue to Bridge
port to expedite the Ben Davis
airport project.
In a letter to the board, Slack de-
clared that at a recent conference,
county commissioners asked the
city to grant the county authority
to run the roadway through the
north side of the municipal airport
site, south of Ben Davis. The thor
oughfare entrance will be at Banner
avenue, the north approach and ex-
tend west to Bridgeport.
Slack said proposed development
of the Oliver avenue route from it's
present terminus inside the city
limits will benefit the airport if
county commissioners order the
project. The new highway would
relieve the traffic congestion on
West Washington street, he said.
The works board granted the Ma
tional Concrete Company, con-
tractor on the Morris street bridge
over White river, an extension on
the date for completion until July
81. 1890, because of unusual con-
ditions of the river and delay in
starting the work.
After repeated requests from City
Councilman John F. White, the
board of works today took steps to
draft a $4,000 appropriation Or
dinance to provide funds for re-
pairing police headquarters and
adding another story to the city
prison.

PEACE PARLEYS
FULL SUCCESS
NOT REVEALED
Expectations Exceeded in
Naval Tonnage Pact,
Is Report.
BY RAYMOND CLAPPER,
United Press stan Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1O.-More
5as achieved during the goodwill
mission Of Prime Minister MacDon-
aid than has been revealed officially.
according information in authorita-
tive quarters today.
1t is understood here, President
Hoover and the prime minister have
reached a lower basis of cruiser
tonnage than had been thought
possible before Macdonald left Lon
don. Details are not known def
nitely, but it is understood the 10000
tons Of cruisers in dispute may be
eliminated from the parity mini
NUNS, suggested in negotiations,
before Macdonald came 70 the
United States. This, if it develops,
will be in the direction of actual
reduction of authorized building
programs sought by President Hoo
yer.
The prime minister and Miss Ish-
bel left Washington today, having
built up tremendous stores of good
will against the time when newt
able controversies may test the pa
thence and forbearance of the two
countries.
Issue Statement
President Hoover and the prime
minister issued a joint statement
declaring the danger of war and
naval rivalry had been banished-
they hoped, forever.
II have achieved more than I
hoped" said the prime minister after
his farewells Wednesday night.
He and Miss Ishbel took formal
leave Of the President and Mrs.
Hoover at the White House late on
Wednesday, while Miss Ishbel was
at the theater witnessing a comedy
built around life on a British cruiser,
her father was having his last
heart-to-heart talk with a group of
high American officials at the home
of Secretary of State StimsOn.
President Hoover, departing from
White House custom which makes
the President virtually a social
E oner," dropped in informally at
the stag dinner as a mark Of per-
sonal esteem.
Built Good VIII
The departure of the prime
minister and his daughter, Miss
shbel-who was second only to her
father in building good will here
closed one of the most unusual in
ternational missions in history.
1t was the first time a British
prime minister ever came to Ameri-
ca, the first time Britain has greet
ed any naval rival except with guns.
the first time heads of these two
governments yer talked face to face
with such frankness, meeting
pleasant and ugly facts with equal
directnesS. 1t was an unconven-
tional mission, summarized in the
picture of these two men, n with
a pipe the other with a cigar, sit
ting on a m%oss-covered log in the
wilderness of the Blue Ridge noun
tains sealing the peace of the two
great naval rivals.
The starting point of the discus
sions was the Kellogg peace pact in
which f1fty-eight nations pledge
themselves to abandon war as an
instrument Of national policy.
Hoover and the PRIME minister set
out to make that pledge mean what
it said, so far as Britain and the
United States were concerned.
