Naval Officers Rap Boost of
Japanese Ratio.

- ~. N
= WASH1NGTON, May 28.-Naval
officers continued their assault on
the London limitation treaty be-
fore the senate foreign relations and
naval committees today, centering
their attack as heretofore on the
increased Japanese ratio and the
six-inch cruisers allotted the United
States.
1.-THE changed japanese ratio IS
very important from the standpoint
of our retention of the Philippines
or their recapture if we lose them"
Rear Admiral S. S. Robson, super
intendent of the naval academy,
told the foreign relations committee.
"The American people may give
up the Philippines but they would
not submit to have the islands
taken from them" he said. "This is
all the more reason why we should
not surrender the power to protect
them.
while the London treaty in
creased the japanese ratio, no
change was made in article 10 Of
the 1922 Washington treaty which
forbids us to fortify our far east
ern possessions"
Declaring that the eight-inch
cruiser is "the battleship of the
future if battleships are ever abol-
ished," Robson said that the Brit
ish and the japanese both appreci-
ate their value, and that the
British went to great lengths to
limit the number we have"

Whether Yice-President Curtis acted
to aid President Hoover when he
sent the $780, 900 Smoot-Hawley
tariff bill back to conference was
the prime question of debate here
today among congressional author
tiles and political observers.
Republican chiefs like Floor
Leader Watson and Chairman
Smoot denied the administration
had turned against the bill. Minor
ity leaders like Robinson of Arkan-
sas and Harrison of Mississippi
openly charged the Curtis ruling,
sending the bill back 20 conference
for revision, was part Of a Republic
an effort to kill the measure by de-
laying it.
Democrats have beer encouraged
to believe Republicans have lost
some enthusiasm for the bill be-
cause Of the large number Of foreign
protests, and others such as that
signed by more than 1000 econom-
lists recently. Though word has

the census department.
This is an increase of 4 te4, or
2O.7 per cent, over the 1920 popu-

Delbert o. Wilmeth, census
supervisor, announced the total for
indianapolis, within the corporate

The city population increased
1888 in ten years, and the county,
excluding Indianapolis, Increased
% ,861, or 7O.4 per cent.
General expansion Of the city
with the increased transportation
facilities and desire of persons to
live in outlying districts, are the
reasons for the boost in the county's
population, Wilmeth declared.
Increases of several thousands
were revealed in Washington,
Wayne and Perry townships, denot-
ing growth in practically every
section of the county.
Wilmeth pointed to increases IN
the eastern and northeastern parts
of the county and in the Mars Hill
and Ben Davis areas. He said work.

in these places.
According to Wilmeth, the in
crease probably will enable Indian
apolis to twentieth place in the
standing of the cities, displacing
Seattle, Wash, which was emu

Totals for the First, Third and
Eighth wards were changed slightly
in making up the final estimate The
ward figures now are: First, 39,107;

MAJOR LEAGUE
PITCHER DEAD
Hal Carlson, Cubs Star, Is
Stricken Suddenly.

Bu United Press
CHICAGO, May %. - Harold
(HaD Carlson, 35, star pitcher of
the Chicago Cubs, died suddenly
early today as the result of an in
ternal hemorrhage He was to have
pitched today against the Cincin-
natl Reds.
Apparently in. excellent health
when he retired early Tuesday night
in his room at the Carlos hotel,
Carlson was heard moaning about
9 a. m. He died soon after guests
had summoned DR.. John F. Davis,
Chicago Cubs club physician, to at
tend him.
The hemorrhage that caused
Carlson's death was believed to
have resulted from an injury re-
ceived by the pitcher during the
practice season when his abdominal
muscles were severely wrenched.
The first three years Of Carlson's
baseball career were spent with the
Rockford Maroons, sen1i-pro team,
which sold him in 1914 to Milwau-
kee for the reported price Of $500.
He later was sold to Grand Rap
ids and in 1916 went to the Chicago
White Sox. Taken by Pittsburgh.
he was with the Pirates for seven
years.
Ills big league career was believed
ended when ne was disposed of in
1923 to Wichita Falls in the Texas
League, but his excellent showing
with that team caused Philadelphia
to draft him the following season.
The Chicago National League club
bought him from the Phillies in
1927, giving Philadelphia two play
ers and $4,000 in exchange.
