COTTON IMPORTS
 SHOW DECREASE
British Cloth Shipments Drop
 in Past Three Months

London, July 24.-LP-A large drop in the importation of British cotton piece goods to Bombay is shown in figures of that port for April, May and June.
 In April 12,22O packages were i'm p0rted, while in June there were only 6,743. The total for the three months was 27,000 as compared 10 43,000 for last year.
 The Daily Mail attributes the drop to the anti-B British boycott con- ducted by Indian natiohalists but a report issued by the Federation of Master Cotton Spinners said the de- cline was due in consid erable part to the progress of Indian cotton mills. The report said the mills we're making India increasingly independ- ent of foreign goods and in time probably would supply all cotton products needed in the country.
 India was not alone in cutting British cotton goods importations for the three months. The total for all buyers was given as 68,0o0 pack ages. IS compared with 91.0O0 in April, May and June of last year

DIPLOMATS MUST
 PAY LIQUOR BILLS
Hoover Rules Government Will Not Assume Expenses

Washington, July 24.-tP-Bub- bling champagnes and choice wines at governmental expense are forbid den luxuries in American embassies and consulates abroad under an executive order just signed by Presi- dent Hoover.
 The order cites in detail regula- tions governing the disbursement by nearly 10A American diplomatic and consular missions abroad of allow ances of $92,0O0 recently voted by congress for official entertaining.
 Three Other Taboos
 In addition to liquors, three other items are taboo under the order They include hire and repair of automobiles, printing and engraving expenses and club dues.
 The order states that "express provisions of the Jaw prevent gov ernmental funds being used for these purposes.
 Among the items permitted under the appropriations are receptions at the missions on American national holidays, flowers and wreaths for weddings and funerals, tips and gratuities, dinners, formal and in formal functions and special enter tainments.
 The ruling surprised state depart ment officials and particularly those in the foreign service who will benefit by the funds.
 The item of serving liquors is gen. erally considered by foreign service officers stationed abroad to be about the heaviest of any for which they have been forced to pay out Of their own pockets.
 Many of the foreign service officers who do extensive entertain ing have found that purchases of liquors frequently run into con- siderable Dill.
 No Data on Dry Diplomats
 Department officials said today they had no information as to the | heads maintained "arid territories in compliance with prohibition laws of their country at home.
 Ambassador Dawes in London caused considerable comment last year by announcing that no liquors would be served at the embassy ir London during his term of office. At the homes of many foreign service officers, however, liquors are served, but under the present ruling these must continue to be paid for l by the host no matter what tn, 1 occasion.

HOUSE VIRTUALLY PASSES TREATY
Second Reading ArouSes Prac- tically No Debate in Commons

London, July 4 P>-The house of commons last night adopted on second reading the bill embodying legislation on the London naval treaty. thus virtually insuring that it will be enacted.
 A third and final reading will fol- low, but this will be largely a for mality as the action or the second stage is considered the equivalent of ratification. In the meantime the bill hasN been referred to the com- mittee of the whole, where only routine action is regarded as likely. Two Take Action
 When the measure is officially adopted on third reading the treaty will have been ratified by two of the signatories. as the United States sen ate approved it this week. Only Japan. is yet debating the compact.
 The naval treaty was signed by the British government and would thus be binding in any case on Great Britain, but C. G. Ammon, parlia- mentary secretary of the admiralty, explained in urging approval that supporting legislation was neces- sary to give full legal effect in quar- ters other than governmental. The legislation also contains al- terations of agreements Great Brit ain made in the act enforcing the l Washington naval treaty of 1922. | Those were provisions forbidding the building of certain types of war vessels, superseded by clauses in the London document this year.
 Debate Is Brief
 Debate on the measure was brief last night, although the Conserva- tives objected mildly 10 what they called undue haste in pushing it Stanley Baldwin, former premier and others preferred postponemen' | of action until after the imperia conference this fall, but they did not press their objections.
 Some adverse criticism of the con- l tents of the treaty was heard, bu | government spokesmen observed ] that the commons need not waste time in criticism. as it could not amend the pact if this were desired
 In reply to conservative questions the government leaders said the l dominions had given assurance they would support the legislation neces sary to put the naval pact into eff i feet,

New Powerful X-Ray Tubes Will Be Developed to Further Efforts
 Of Pathological Research Society

pavement in American x-ray tubes, though meanwhile science has gone beyond the capacities of most dorl- estic tubes.
 Accurate measuring of x-ray dosage IS becoming vital There IS no more powerful poison than an overdose of X-rays or radium. For safety the rays should be standard ized under government regulation but we cannot do this with tubes of the present irregular performance. We aim to use research to help pro- duce better American tubes. Euro peans are ahead of us in this re- spect"
 Cheaper Radium Needed Cheaper radium is another obJec- tive. Others are American control of it's own radium supply, establish ment of a central pathological re- search laboratory. fostering pure pathological research in colleges, CO., operation with the National Institute of Health created by congress, and an advisory board of 50 scientists to extend x-ray research uses into all walks of life. Any profits go to pathological research
 Original members of the institute include Dr. D. S. Childs. Syracuse; Dr. Alden Williams, Grand Rapids. Mich; Dr. Arthur Wright, West colt, Atlantic City; Dr. W. W.

President Hopes to Im- prove Work by Obtain ing Better Apparatus - More Power Would En- able Doctors to Better Assist Patients.

New York, July A P-NeW tubes to unlock far-reaching heal ing powers of x-rays are sought by the Pathological Research Institute, the latest American Scientic society.
 Incorporation of this institute ill Delaware was announced today by the acting president, Dr. Edwin Charles Ernst of St. Louis. The tubes to produce x-rays of a power now unavailable. Dr. Ernst said, are one of the first objectives. Deeper penetration is sought and faster ac- ton so that the rays can be used to stop" the image of moving in- ternal organ, which now appears as a blur.
 "X-rays," said statement by Dr. Ernst and Dr. Rollin H. Stevens Of Detroit, secretary of the institute, are finding rapidly extending use. They relieve infections. skin condl- tions, pneumonia and asthma; they are the most effective treatment for a common plmple afllctlon ana TOT boils and carbuncles. They help some kinds of cancer.
 Seek Better Results
 We now produce x-rays of from 5000 to 25O,00O volts. If we went to 3O0,000 or 100000 volts we could get practically radium rays from an ex-ray tube and we know results would be better.
 But we cannot go that high, for we lack the tubes to stand it. One man gets a desirable result, but an- other trying the same treatment fails, sometimes because of irregu- lar output from tubes. In seven years there has been no real inn
