LONDON, March 30.--A quarter cen-
tury Of surface understanding between
Great Britain and France win be cele-

British sea power on Cannes, France.

Austen Chamberlain and Aristide
Ariand may represent the forcing min

Some observers regard the fete rs
another attempt to regain the solidarity
which existed between the two countries
prior to the World War and which was
given Jolt by the recent collapse Of
the Anglo; French naval pact In the
face of adverse world public opinion.
Anglo-French cooperation was some-
what strained at the close Of the war
and In the peace negotiations because
of differing interests. There have been
consistent attempts by certain British
and French statesmen ever since to
put the relations back on "a pre-war
basis. The guaranteeing Of French se-
curity by the treaty of L0carno gave
the movement impetus. but the failure
Of the o-French naval pact acted
as brake.
Students of Anglo French relations
are realizing more and more just how
ef1cient King Edward was as diplo-
mat. The entente cordiale, signed April

CITIZENS ASK REFUND
OF TAXES FOR PAVING
Resolution of Congress Heights
Association Addressed to Dis
trict Commissioners.

A resolution to intervene in behalf Of
the residents Of Congress Heights be-
lieved to be entitled to refunds of
money said to have been enormously
paid In taxes for street paving was
adopted by the Congress Heights Citi-
zens' Association at its opening Fall
meeting in the Congress Heights Bap-
fist Church last night.
Samuel Kravitz was appointed chair
man Of a special committee to make q
survey of the situation, with a view to
determining what action can be taken.
The resolution was adopted after
members OF the association charged the
Commissioners had refused to make any
refunds in such taxes until compelled
to do so by court action, and that many
refunds which should be made are not
large enough to warrant the latter.
The association also adopted a reso-
luton to request the Engineer Com
missioner, Col William B. Ladue, to
take action to put stop to the over
fow OF water from the tank in the Sec
ton, filled by the Anacostia pumping
station. The latter resolution was
adopted following charges that many
gallons of water are wasted daily in this
manner and that complaints to the
Water Department have failed to bring
results.
Decision to stage a carnival sometime
in the near future to raise revenue for
the association was made. Announce
ment was made at the meeting that the

Will Rogers
Says:

SANTA MONICA, Calif.-Mr.
Hoover and Ramsey Mcdonald are
both peace-loving, tax-saving. con-
scientious men, but since 1922 We
have read nothing but: You limit
your battleships to so many, and
we'll limit our cruisers to SO and
so; you have this much tonnage
under ten thousand and We will
agree to ours over nine thousand"
And both are still building and still
arguing.
If both nations was absolutely on
the level with this, they would agree
,on a grand total of armament that
each one could have, whether 1t was
in battleships or battle axes, cruisers
or cuspidors, pistols or paper wads,
shotguns or slingshots, submarines
or subways, aeroplanes or airdales.
But when it was all added up it
should weigh the same. Then that
will make the next war tie and will
guarantee that we fight another one.

In Joint Report Cause Of Wreck Is
Not Finally Fixed.

Not Finally Fixed.
ST. LOUIS, September 10 Dr.
TranScontinental Air Transport officials
including Col. Charles A. Lindbergh
chairman of the technical committee
issued a report last night concerning
probable causes of the wreck OF the air
liner City of San Francisco with the
loss of eight lives on Mount Taylor,
N. Mex. The report was based on Col
Lindbergh's observations at the scene
and the Geographic report of Paul Col
Inns, general superintendent of the line,
who directed the search and visited the
wreck.
TOO many things are involved" the
report said, Ito give an irrefutable
cause of the accident. From survey
Of the facts obtainable, it Is our opinion
that Pilot Stowe crashed into the
ground at full speed and under full
control. He may have been blinded
momentarily by a severe storm.
"A dangerous storm area was not in
dictated on any of the. weather reports
and must have been very local in
character. Just before taking of from
Albuquerque, Pilot Stowe was handed
weather report showing visibility,
temperature, cloud conditions, baro-
metric pressure and ceiling and other
important data from IL reporting sta
tions in that area, three Weather
Bureau stations and nine T. A. T. sta
lions. At none of these places were
hazardous flying conditions reported.
On the same day out eaStbound ship
and aircraft of other companies new
the same route without encountering
unusual conditions.
pilot Stove did not take off in the
face Of poor flying conditions nor
against his better judgment, as 40 one
in the entire T. A. T. organization has
the authority to order pilot to make
such flight.
ct is quite possible that full facts
concerning the cause of the tragedy
will never be known, but the company
realizes its obligations to make public
such facts and will do so If they are
ever available"

ance of 1891, 32878 were dispatched

when 1t Is considered that our cam
paign did not end until February and
that In seven months of the year we
have collected nearly four-fifths of the
total pledged, we have every reason to
be pleased and believe that Washing
ton bids fair to establish a record for

called that under the old plan of hav-

airplane crash in which eight lives
were lost.
The sheriff's Office, once the center of

scores of planes were conferred for the
greatest aerial search in history, had
only two landings yesterday. Tired men,
worn from their 70-odd hours work

were identified by dental work, melted

LOS ANGELES, September 10.-In-
vestigators of the Aeronautics Bureau OF
the Department of Commerce today
were completing an investigation into
the wrecking of Transcontinental Air
Transports passenger liner City Of San
Francisco on Mount Taylor, N. Mex,
with loss of eight lives.
Maj. Clarence Young announced he
will hold no hearings on the disaster
in this city, but said he planned to
make an exhaustive study of weather
and flying conditions at all seasons of
the year over the Western flying routes.
His findings in this regard, together
with observations he made at the scene
of the wreck, will be made public in
Washington after the department has
assembled all of its reports. Mai. Young
came here by plane from Albuquerque,
N. Mex, Sunday.

will report his findings to Washington.
MAJ. Young explained CnaL the prln-
cipal purpose of the Department Of
Commerce investigation was to lind
the cause and seek to eliminate 1t in
future flying"
ITO form an opinion now or to ex-
press one would be premature" Mai.
Young said. Il know the air-minded-
ness of the American public will accept
this tragedy as it would accept similar
unfortunate happening in any other
mode of travel"
Rice States Opinion.
Lieut.. George A. Rice, Western Air
Express pilot who discovered the wreck
age on Mount Taylor, has expressed be-
lief that Pilot j. B. Stowe of the City Of
San Francisco. blinded by wind and
rainstorm, made a slight mistake in
wind and altitude calculations, resulting
in the storm forcing the ship against
the mountainside.
The only possible way the accident
could have been avoided, 1t seems to
me-" said Rice, would have been for
the plane to have had more altitude or
to have remained in Albuquerque"
1T is a deplorable thing" he con-
tinued, land this is the only explana-
ton I can give for its cause. 1t is al
most impossible to predict weather con-
ditions in that section, they develop so
suddenly"
