These desroyerS are slated for

whether the London conference

The balance Of the reduction
analyzed from Stimson'S announce
ment would come through the
scrapping of three battleShips, the
Wyoming. Utah and Florida when
they reach the retirement age next
year. This would reduce the Amer

agreed upon by the American and
British experts for both fleets.

The United States also has some
10000 tons Of obsolete submarines
ready for the scrap pile. Some OF
these have already been listed fol
sale as junk.
To offset these reductions, how.
ever, the United States Is faced
with the necessity Of completing
the 15-cruiser program, and au.
thorizing still other cruisers il
parity with Great Britain is to
be reached. The estimated cost
OF these cruisers is around $500

Consequently. while it may be
possible to junk some 20O, 900 tons
Of dead and obsolete craft, Actu.

Colored employees of the Government

they should be freed of any discrimina-
ton against them In the matter of ap-
pointments, 1t was declared last night
by Representative oscar De Priest OF
illinois, at a meeting of colored Federal

The Representative advocated organ

Representative De Priest said there
should be a better working agreement
between heads of departments and the
colored emploge.
"On the other hand" he said, ''the
colored employe in the Government
service must prove worthy. He must
let none exceed him in punctuality and
in the performance of every duty His
organization should train him to be
highly efficient, and more efficient as
time goes on. He must not permit his
reliability to be impaired by too frequent
leaves Of absence for trivial reasons" "

WEATHER INFORMATION
AID BY SOUTHERN CROSS
Expert Declares Kingsford- Smith
and Byrd Had Similar Condi-
tions over Atlantic.

by tDe ASSOCIATED Press.
NEW YORK, June 25.-Dr. James H.
Kimball, meterologist of the New York
Weather Bureau, said today that
weather characteristics of the flight of
the Southern Cross were similar to the
conditions which attended the trans
atlantic flight of Rear Admiral Byrd
and his companions.
Like the Byrd plane America, which
landed on the French coast, the South
ern Gross had good weather while
crossing the ocean, DR.. Kimball said,
only to encounter heavy fog as it
neared land.
The outstanding difference in the
conditions of the two flights, he said,
was that where the America, flying
from west to east, had the advantage
of a 30-mile-an-hour tail wind, which
would increase its speed and reduce
fuel consumption, the Southern Cross
encountered a head wind of about the
same velocity, which cut her speed by
a corresponding amount and increased
consumption of fuel.
The fight of the Southern Cross,
DR.. Kimball said, had added its con-
tribution to the store of knowledge of
transatlantic flying weather.

ROOSEVELT FIELD, Long Island,
June 25.-Nassau County and State po-
lice are preparing for big crowd when
Capt Charles Kingsford- Smith and
transatlantic flying mates land here
some time late today.
Capt. Kingsford-Smith is expected to
choose this field because its runway of

sufficient clearance for his take-off for
the coast. Smaller fields are quite suf-
ficient for landing, but he must rise

kins' two FokkerS, wrecked on the ice,

verse winds, is an epic OF the air which
grows as the day wears on. Crowds,
already gathering, eagerly await news
of the flight of the Southern Cross
down the home stretch from Harbor
Grace. Newfoundland, where the plane
landed early today to refuel.
Capt. Kingsford-Smith has been do
ing some wonderful navigating on this
trip" said Capt. j. Nelson Kelly opera
tion manager of Roosevelt Field. His
T. I.1A ~ -E
Suva, in his jump from Hawaii, was
magnificent and I don't think that the
public has ever realized what a re-
markable performance this was. On
his present flight, he has shown SUI
preme skill with his charts and instru-
ments. He Is known to flying experts
as one of the most competent navigators
who ever took the air. I am informed
that he carries the periodic, the earth
inductor and the magnetic compaSses.
I do not know whether he uses the sun
compass developed by Admiral Byrd.
New York Sky Is Clear.
Weather reports received here, COW
ering the stretch up to Boston, are that
Capt. KingSford-Smith probably will
have the wind on his beam for most of
the flight, the prevailing winds being
from the northwest. The sky here is
clear and brilliant, with only a dim
haze on the horizon and slight breeze
stirring.
No doubt It will be a cosmopolitan
