BY REX COLLIER.

Embarked on the last lap of its
epochal three weeks cruise down the
west coast of the Americas, the good
ship Maryland broke through the re-
Straint of naval routine to render final
courteSieS to her honored guests.
Valparaiso, South Americas greatest
seaport and last port of call of the
goodwill ship, lay just ahead. AS the
proud dreadnaught moved steadily
southwark through the cool waters of
the South Pacific her decks became alive
with activity, decidedly not nautical.
Afternoon teas took place on her trim
quarterback, with sea-hardened officers
munching dainty cakes ana drinking
antrieS with the distinguished paSsen-
gers who soon were to take leave of
the ship.
Vaudeville stunts and boxing exhibit
tions were staged beneath star-studded
skies for the entertainment of the de-
parting civilians.
Piles of lumber and rolls of canvas
were transformed into boxes and crates
and bags for the shipment of the ton
or more Of gifts shoWered upon the
PreSident-elect and his wife and other
members of the goodwill mission.
Hold white House" Teas.
The White House" teas, as the de-
lightful informal receptions given by
Mr.. and Mrs. Hoover on deck or in
their suite came to be called, were in
the nature of farewell parties. All of
the officers and newspaper men were
invited. Mrs. Hoover and her Secre-
tary, Miss Fesler, passed among the
guests with trays of cakes in their
hands and chatted pleasantly with each
of the guests. The PreSident-elect
shook hands with the officers. thanked
them for personal favors, and told them
that much of the credit for the success
of the initial phases of the goodwill
mission must go to the Navy.
The vaudeville and boxing were fea-
lures of "happy-hour" entertainment
staged by the crew night or so before
landing. During the course of the pro-
gram Chief BoaStwain's Mate Dennis
of Davy Jones' fame made a farewell
address to the Hoover party on behalf
Of all his shipmates. Mr.. Hoover was
not present at the time, but Mrs
Hoover heard the speech. and, walking
to the front, made a most gracious re-
Spouse.
"I want you all to know" she said,
that Mr.. Hoover and myself will have

Hoovers to the capital, pointing out
sights of special interest as the train
sped through the countryside. The
mayor also presented Mr.. and Mrs.
Hoover with some old Spanish colonial
silver pieces as token OF esteem from
the city of Valparaiso.
The train carried the party steadily
upward toward the foothills of the An
dean cordillera, at the base OF which
rests the beautiful capital of the -four
ishing republic. The journey ended in
a large and modern railroad station, In
front of which had assembled many
thousands of citizens and several regi-
mentS of cavalry.
President Meets Hoover.
To the surprise of every one, President
Carlos Ibanez had come to the station
to meet the American PreSident-elect,
an honor accorded to but one or two
other visitors to the capital in all its
history Gen. IbaneZ, attired in mill
tary uniform of blue, with saber slung
at his side, greeted Mr.. Hoover with
marked cordially and escorted him to
magnificent gold-decorated carriage
of state, drawn by prancing team of
thoroughbreds. In rumble seat" at
the rear sat two dignified footmen with
silk hats, long double-breaSted coats
and pantaloons tucked into white leg
gingS.
An escort of picked cavalrymen,
armed with 10-foot lances. from which
f1uttered vari-colored pennons, and
mounted on spirited horses of the small
Arabian type, rode alongside the open
carriage as it proceeded through miles
of crowd-lined boulevards to the Amer
lean embassy. Other members of the
party were conveyed in modern Ameri-
can automobiles.
The entire route was guarded by
countless military units, most of whose
members were of the Indian type. The
faces of these soldiers were for the
most part absolutely eXpressionless, and
they executed their maneuvers with
machine-like precision. The majority
of the Indians were descendants of the
war-like Araucanians, whose stubborn
resistance to the white mans advances
delayed the colonization of Chile many
years.
AS for the average Chilean of the
streets, however, it was distinctly no.
ticeable that he retains the European
characteristics of his forefathers. Most

of their Castilian blood and this pride
has tended to produce classes" among
the inhabitants of the republic.
The buildings Of Santiago were In
holiday dress, and from nearly every
window and balcony hung flags Of the
United States and Chile. Every inch
of sidewalk space was occupied by
cheering throngs, and hundreds OF citi-
Zens shouted their acclaim from bal
comics and rooftops. Overhead Zoomed
a formation of airplanes.
The procession halted in front of the
American embassy, and Mr.. and Mrs.
Hoover went inside for brief rest be-
fore beginning the strenuous program

BREAKS IN STEEL Barred
BEFORE THEY HAPPEN
Apparatus Discloses Fissures Inside
Metal That Result in Final
Breach.

NEW YORK LPD.-Prevention of
railroad wrecks caused by breaking of
steel equipment is the purpose of a
research undertaken by Elmer A.
Sperry, president of the American So
ciety of Mechanical Engineers.
He has devised process called
looking through Steel" that discloses
breaks literally before they occur.
Metallurgists recently have discovered
that breaks of properly tested steel are
not sudden, but that they are slow
growths, starting in microscopic cracks,
that often remain invisible to the
eye until the moment of breaking.
Although the Sperry process of look
ing" does not render transparent the
interior of steel and iron, it is even
more effective in detecting the begin
nings OF cracks, the one thing sought
in safety tests.
The apparatus Is electrical, shooting
a current through the metal under
test.

TREATY BENEFITS
PREDICTED BY DUCE
MusSoIini Is Given Ovation on
Conclusion of Plea for
Fascist Vote.

By the Associated Press.
ROME, March 11.-Italy hailed today
the prediction of Premier Mussolini
that the future fruits of the Fascist
regimes action in making possible the
Lateran treaty with the Vatican would
be even richer than they are today.
The prediction was made by the
premier in the course of a speech be-
fore the quinquennial assembly of all the
forces of the Fascist state. He con-
cluded his speech with the appeal You
and the people will vote yes at the
coming election. The brief monosyl-
liable will show the world that Italy is
Fascist and Fascism is Italy,"
Future Policy Not Predicted.
The premier then left the stage, his
chin held high, amid thunderous ap-
plause from more than 1000 assembled
to hear him.
In his speech Premier Mussolini re-
fused to predict the future policy of the
regime, preferring that that should be
announced by the King in the speech
from the throne at the opening of the
Legislature April 20, on the eve of the
anniversary of the foundation of Rome.
Touching upon the Lateran treaty, he
said neither side was victor and neither
vanquished in the settlement. 1t mere
~ remedied a situation which had
grown dangerous and irksome," he
said.
He pointed out that the Holy See
recognized the House of Savoy as the
ruling house in italy, while the italian
state recognized the sovereignty of the
Pontif and the Holy See, which had
already existed de facto.
Peaceful Intentions Stressed.
Besides the pronouncement II Duce
took occasion to reiterate the peaceful
intentions of italy. He pointed with
pride, however, to the reorganization OF
the army and its new morale.
I'm former times" he said, young
conscripts went to their barracks grum-
bling. Now they march there with a
light step, singing Giovinezza."
The speech left no field of national
activity untouched. Great stress was
laid upon development Of Italy's mer-
chant marine and the source Of strength
the sea has for her. Fascist labor leg
islation, he claimed, was far in advance
of anything else in the world, although
rights of both employers and employees
were respected.
