DETROIT, Mich, July 18.-Oficers
of the Detroit Aircraft Corporation,
whose subsidiary concern, the Aircraft
Development Corporation, is building
the first all-metal dirigible for the
United States Navy, were informed last
night that new deposits of helium gas
had been found in Colorado which will
provide sufficient lifting gas for infla-
tion and operation of all United States

Col. Turney Gratz and w. r. Ohutt

of the gas, authorized announcement OF
the discovery, Detroit Aircraft Corpora
tion officials said.
The new field is by far the richest
helium deposit yet found, the Helium
Co. officers said. the gas having helium
content Of TOT per cent. The best
previous content was 3.6 per cent.
while 1t is. impossible to determine
accurately the total volume of this new
field" Col. Gratz said, 'four corps Of
chemical research engineers estimated
that the deposit will meet the demands
of airship builders and operators for a
minimum of 20 years.
Col. Gratz said he could not reveal

ARMS STATEMENT
PLANNED IN JULY
Macdonald Tells Commons
Negotiations With U. S. Are
Being Rushed.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, July lS.-Premier Ramsay
Macdonald told the House of Com
mons this afternoon he was doing his
utmost 10 expedite naval disarmament
negotiations with the United States. so
as to be able to make an announce
ment on the subject before Parliament
rises at the end Of the month. The
premier said. however. he was not sure
this would be possible.
The prime minister's statement arose
from prodding by Winston Churchill,
who wanted to know whether MacDon-
aid would make 1t clear that before
any important decision of policy re-
verSing the naval program for the pres
ent year" Parliament would be informed
and given an opportunity of expressing
its opinion.
Certainly not" replied the prime
minister. The government will take
Just the ordinary powers of a govern
ment in that respect. The government
will exercise its judgment with full
knowledge of its responsibilities to the
house, and beyond that 1t is impossible
TO go at the moment"
Macdonald characterized as "a most
unworthy suggestion" a question by
Churchill whether it was to be under
stood that "a most grave and impor-
tant decision of this kind is being with
held until Parliament has separated"
The prime minister stated that it was
perfectly obvious that the matter was
not In his hands alone" When one is
dealing with international affairs it is
not with a cabinet or a department
that one is dealing, but with very
complicated set of circumstances" he
said. He then made his announcement
that he would do his best to make a
statement before the house rose.
II hope the house will not ask me to
tie my hands," Macdonald concluded.

through yellow fever epidemic, two
severe freezes and their resultant con-
sequences, the land boom and all Of its
evils, the two hurricanes OF 1926 and
1928 and the fruit fly devastation, and
that he believed the State would emerge
victorious from the bank situation.

PARIS, July 1S.-China or Japan

OF Nations before that body is likely
to launch an ofIicial investigation into
the Russo Chinese crisis in the opinion
of international circles in Geneva and
among league officials here.
Diplomats, however are watching for
the next action Of the League, many
believing that the severance of diplo-
matte relations by Russia would justify
immediate intervention. The fact that
Russia is a non-member Of the league,
however, is felt to create an embarras-
sing international political situation
which will require delicate handling
Paris Diplomats Are Optimistic.
Japan possesses heavy interests In
Manchuria and as the Japanese Am
bassador to France, M. Adatch1. now Is
president of the League Council, it is
thought that the other members OF the
council naturally look to him for any
initiative.
II M. Adatchi deems peace seriously
endangered he is empowered under the
League covenant to summon special
council to examine the situation.
In diplomatic circles In Paris OPP
timism is expressed that despite last
nights rupture of relations the affair
will be ironed out by China and Russia
without war and without diplomatic
intervention.
