ILLNESS PREVENTS SURVEY.


Into Young Plan.
BERLIN, June % tR).-The illness Of
DIR. Gustav Stresemann, German for
eign minister, and Chancellor Mueller
today prevented q hoped-for compre-
hensive survey on the international sit
uation with relation to the Young plan
on reparations and the pending political
conference to put 1t into effect.
DR.. Rudolph Hilferding, minister OF
finance, addressed the ReichStag In be-
half of the cabinet, but did little more
than enjoin Parliament not to create
difficulties for Germany's political me-
gotiators ut the coming international
conference.
ITO discuss the details Of the plan
at present Is prohibited by the fact
that We are on the threshold OF o
political conference" he said. only
the total results Of this conference
will furnish the data indispensable for
arriving at decisions which must be
made by the federal government and
the law-giving bodies"
Preceding his remarks, Dr. hilferding
said that during 1929 Germany must
carry $500 600, 900 marks (approxi-
mately 81 ,O8o, 600 .000) as her share Of
the World War bill, Of which 2,500,-
100000 marks were In reparations,
1,760 ,OO0, 900 marks in internal war
burdens, such as pensions and the care
of wounded soldiers, widows and or :.
phans and 800, o00,0 600 In minor bur-
dens.
DR.. Stresemann conducted business
from his bedroom today and received
friends whom he told he would certain
ly be able to speak in the Reichstag on
Monday.
His illness Is considered in no wise
alarming. He thinks he overstrained
the veins In his legs by much standing
and walking at the Barcelona EXPOSE

The more hunters there were the
smaller the chance for the attacking

Director Device Important.
Great reliance Is placed in q sensi-
tive director device, which is an auto
matte range finder. It Is thought to
by airplanes in the World War-the
difficulty which land artillery had in
finding their target. Whereas many
air raids succeeded for the failure Of
anti-aircraft shells to explode in prox-
unity to the attacking planes, the anti
aircraft director automatically trains
the guns on the airplane when It's oper-
ators turn their telescope on it.
It Is now possible to train guns con-
tinuously, by electricity, to follow the
data indicated by such q director so
that no time is lest and the gun keeps
step with the movements Of the target,
even when an airplane Ia moving 100
miles an hour and more and swerving
to throw on anti-aircraft attack
The necessary firing data for the guns
are computed automatically by the anti
aircraft director, calculating machine
which, IL kept directed ut the target
by means Of two telescopes, also will
indicate continuously the elevation and
direction ut which the gun should be
set so that it will point ahead of the
target by the correct angle at all times.

that the quartet Of four machine guns
mentioned above can be kept pointed,
while firing 5000 shots q minute at q

chine guns, Il Is said, Is in warding or

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, June ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
of the coming of Ambassador Gibson
from Belgium to confer with Ambassa-
dor Charles G. Dawes was hailed here
rs another evidence of the determine
ton Of President Herbert Hoover to ex-
pedite q practical solution of the prob
lem of Anglo-American naval strength
The proposed visit on Monday of the
special envoy, who has been spokesman
for the disarmament views of the
American Government at recent Geneva
meetings, stimulated anew the spirit Of
optimism aroused by the significant
events Of the past two weeks.
Omens Of New Political Era.
Political observers here pointed to
the expressed wish Of Prime Minister
Ramsay Macdonald to talk with Presi-
dent Hoover at washington, the hasty
and spectacular journey of the new
American Ambassador to meet the
premier in Scotland, his later speech 10
the Pilgrims Society. and the airplane
fight of the British premier to London
new attitude toward public affairs.
Public opinion expects to find in the
visit of Mr.. Gibson another practical
advance toward the disarmament goal
In some quarters there Is still strong
expectation that Mr.. Macdonald will
meet the American President in o con-
ference fruitful for world peace. 1t Is
further generally believed that not long
after the visit of Mr.. Gibson naval ex-
perts and statesmen will get busy with
their yard sticks" as adjured by AM
bassador Dawes.
British Press Praises Dawes.
The British press is still full of praise
for Gen. Dawes and his mission as re-
vealed in his first week of activities in
his new post. On. Dawes arrived at
a critical moment With God-sent mes
sage" says the Sunday Express. Eng
factors Of the world and IL they come
to terms on disarmament other minor
countries are bound to follow" ~
The Sunday Observer predicts that
the visit TO Washington by the British
and Canadian Premiers will be made in
the Fall and calls the coming visit Of
Ambassador Gibson the epilogue to the
Pilgrim speech Of Gen. Dawes The
latter was credited with invaluable serv-
ice by so clearly tracing the line between
the functions Of naval experts and
statesmen.
Our program-President Hoover's
program in April but no longer only
his-is concrete enough" says the OBJ
server. "A standard Of measure must
be found and when found, applied.
That is all-but In that all is compre.
hended the peace Of the world"

opportunity of congratulating the
Moose Lake boys on their accomplish
ment and spoke of the essentials of
a winning team which he cited as
harmony, hard work, and clean living
and cited the star outfielder of the
Bruno team, Jack Southerton, who
with only one arm plays real game
and enjoys life to it's fullest in spite
of the handicap. Attorney Johnson
was chosen to give a discourse on
errors" and as he put it, the spon-
sors of the program sure picked fit
ting person to talk on this subject as
the fans will well remember that
Albert played second base for the
Sandstone team.
George E. Thompson, secretary of
the Northwest umpires association
gave short talk on baseball and not
only commended highly the Moose
Lake team, but also paid glowing
tribute to the Bruno team, managed
by Karl r. Won Schenk, which finished
out the season with only one game in
the win column to their credit.
DR.. J. o. Werntz Speaks.
The main address on the evenings
program was that given by Dr. ]. o.
Werntz of Moose Lake. DR.. Werntz
started out his address with two
jokes on the Scotch and cleverly fol-
lowed up with a discourse on success,
comparing some people with stuffed
sausage as signified by the story of
an American boy. who went abroad
with his fathers orders and bank roll
to see the country. After visiting
practically all of the countries in
northern Europe and receiving moth
ing but fish fixed in various ways, he
happened to run across a stock of
American stuffed sausage. He bought
up considerable quantity of this
and took it to the kitchen of a restau-
rant and told the Swedish girl, who
could only understand a limited
amount of English, to cook it up.
Some time later he visited the kitchen
little in doubt as to her interpre-
tatiOn of his message. Her response
to his query was that the sausages
seemed to have an awful lot of waste
to them. In other words she had TAX
en- out the insides the same as she
was in the habit of preparing fish.
This, DR.. Werntz said could be liken-
ed to some people inasmuch as they
had a good appearing outside but
NOT hino Of valua on tho inside Do1
lars alone do not make for success,
but it is the good that one does that
counts was what the speaker brought
out. DR.. Werntz also cOntrasted the
travelling man and the city dweller
to the country boy. The former want
ed to find place some day in the
country away from the cares of the
crowded city life where the air was
pure and where he could rest and the
