In Talk

Painting a rosy picture of No
gales and its environs, Bracey
Curtis, president of the First Ma
tional Bank, in an address before
the Nogales Rotary club Friday,
declared, however, that the city
was tagging behind and was not
keeping in step with Tucson, Phoe-
nix, Yuma and other progressive
Arizona cities.
eff we are not dead on our feet, "
the banker said, "we can get a
share of the wealthy tourist traf-
fic which is pouring into the south
west. Nogales offers the finest
climate in Arizona and there are
a score of other reasons why this
city should be on the tongues of
every person seeking. either plea
sure or health"
Mr.. Curtis also pointed out the
great expense that Nogales tax
payers must face because of the
paving program. He urged greater
settlement in order to shift the
burden on additional capital.
Herb Chatham, secretary of the
club, read letter from Rev. o. A.
Smith, executive secretary of the
Associated Charities, in which he
expressed appreciation of Rotary
support of the annual Christmas
tree.

NINE OLD CRUISERS
TOBE SOLD BY U. S.
Secretary Adams Announces
That Obsolete Vessels Will
Be Taken From Service.
~ tn. Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Nine obsolete Navy cruisers, all OF
which are about a quarter Of century
old, are soon to be placed on the auc-
ton block.
Secretary Adams has approved the
recommendations of the naval board OF
inspection and survey that six Of the
cruisers, which have been out Of COM
mission some time. be offered for sale
for junk or any other purpose.
Earlier in the year the Navy Depart
ment authorized the sale of the old
cruisers Salem, Albany and New Or
leans. They were ships which at one
time during. the early part Of the
twentieth century were the pride OF the
American fleet.
Others to Be Sold.
OF the nine to be sold the York, laid
up at the Philadelphia Navy Yard, Is
the youngest. 1t was commissioned In
1908 as the Chester while Theodore
Roosevelt was President. The others
Louis, also at the Philadelphia yard;
the Chattanooga and the Des Moines.
at the Portsmouth, N. H., Navy Yard,
and the Charleston, at the Puget Sound,
Wash, Navy Yard.
No date has been set for the sale Of
the ships, which were declared by Sec
retary Adams to be unfit for further
naval service"
The Navy also has out Of commits
sion the old cruisers Charlotte, Fred
erick, Huntington, Huron, Missoula and
Pueblo. as well as the Olympia, which
is considered a relic because she was
Admiral Dewey,s flagship in the Span
ish-American War and is expected to
be preserved because of her historical
interest. The Cleveland. now at Mo-
bile, Ala.,. is also obsolete and Is to be
decommissioned shortly.
Old Vessels I'm Use.
Because Of the lack Of modern crui-
sers the Navy has been using the OBJ
solescent Denver. Galveston. Rochester,
Pittsburgh and Seattle, all of which are
more than 20 years old. The Pitts
burgh is the flagship of the Asiatic fleet
and the Rochester is the flagship Of the
special service squadron In Central
American waters. Besides being the
only vessels of this type available for
their particular service, the Navy clings
to them because they have accommo-
cations suff1cient to care for admirals
and their stats in command of their
respective units. -

under Harbin date line saying:
Although no major developments
have taken place on the Manchurian
frontier during the past two days, both
China and Russia are quietly preparing

The Chinese authorities declared mar

The dispatch added that the Kirin

Telephone communications from Harbin

The official Nationalist news agency
Kuominn says today:
Foreign observers returning from
Manchuli stated that Soviet troops
along the frontier were adopting pro-

test public opinion regarding Russian
military action. In the event OF the
absence of a hostile public opinion,
Soviet Russia is expected soon to launch
a formal offensive against China.
This same agency issued another

"It was learned that some japanese
military officers were found within the

WILLIAMS FAILS
IN TAKE-0FF TESTS
Navy Flyer and Craft Are En-
dangered When Waves Rock
Mercury Racer.
BY JOSEPH s. EDGERTON,
Aviation Editor Of The Star.

ANNAPOLIS, Md, August 2l.-Two
attempts by Lieut.. Afford J. williams
to fly his Mercury racing plane failed
here today when he was forced to stop
his motor to avoid smashing the light
pontoons of his craft in the waves Of
Chesapeake Bay.
The second attempt, made at 1880,
ended when williams shut off his motor
after taxing nearly two miles at O
speed of more than 100 miles per hour.
Navy boats along the course prepared
to take him in tow and it is expected
that third attempt will be made early
this afternoon.
After two weeks Of delay, due to bad
weather and minor mishaps, Lieut.. VIII
iiams now Is fighting against time. His
plane Is the sole hope of the United
States in the Schneider Trophy races,
to be held at Cowes, England, Septem-
ber and Z. Unless Williams is able
to complete his test this week, the
United States will not be represented
In the worlds greatest speed classic.
Tests Today Identical.
Both attempts this morning were al
most identical In character. The plane
was taxing down the Severn River
from the Naval Academy into light
southeast breeze. Both ended when the
ship began bouncing across a slight
ground swell rolling in from the bay.
Today's efforts may be the last Lieut..
williams will be able to make before
the end Of the week. If he Is unable
to fly today, reconstruction of pontoons
will be necessary, it is believed, to give
the plane greater buoyancy and enable
it to take of from rough water.
The Navy made elaborate preparation
for emergencies in connection with the
tryoutS today. A submarine chaser
with a diver aboard patrolled the course
in case the plane crashed and went to
the bottom. Speedboats were stationed
at intervals along the take-off course
and a PN-12 Navy patrol flying boat
circled overhead In position to reach
williams within few seconds.
Prepared for Possible Mishap.
First-aid equipment was kept at hand
in case Of injury to the pilot.
Williams first attempt was made
shortly after 10 o'clock this morning,

ARGENTINE OFFERS
TARIFF SUGGESTION
Urges U. S. to Center Atten-

BY the Associated Press.
A communication urging that the
United States center its attention on
orderly marketing" Of agricultural
products instead of declaring an eco
nomical war by your tariff scheme" was
received by the Senate finance commit
tee today from the Asociacion Nacional
de Agriculture Of Argentina.
The memorandum. signed by Jorge
Tewes, president of the Buenos Aires
organization, was forwarded to the
committee by the State Department.
1t was the first communication from
Argentina touching on American tariff
legislation, concerning which more than
so representations have been received
previously from 20 foreign nations and
colonial possessions of the British
empire.
"The pending menace to worlds econ
omy, contained in the extraordinary
rise Of your countrys tariffs" the COM
munication said, affects very seriously

had not joined In the general pro-

order in prices ruling on the worlds

The communication said. however,
that strong movement was spreading

May Number 10
By the Associated Press.


NEW YORK. August 21.-Dis-
appearance of the two Swiss fly
ers, Oscar Kaesar and Burt
Luescher, somewhere on their
transatlantic course between the
Azores and the American coast
recalled today the tragic fate
that presumably overlook eight
others who sought to span the
Atlantic from east to west.
Since Capt. Charles Nungesser
and Capt. Francois Coli took of
for New York from lie Bourget
Field on May 8, 1927, never to be
seen again, three other attempted
westward flights ended in the
mysterious waves of the Atlantic.
Two months after Nungesser
and Coli started on their last
flight, Princess Lowenstein-Wert-
helm, Capt. Leslie Hamilton and
Frederick F. Minchin left Upavon,
England, on an attempted nom
stop flight to Ottawa, Ontario.
It Is believed their plane went
down in midocean. .
On. March 13, 1928, Capt. Wal
ter Hinchliffe and the Honorable
Elsie Mackay left England for
the United States. Nothing was
ever heard from them after they
passed the Irish coast.
The most recent fatality was
that Of the Polish flyer Louis
Idzikowski, who died of the
Azores in the wreck of his plane
on July 13. His companion, Casi-
mir Kubala, survived.
