NAVY ASKED TO
RESCUE men ON
DESERT ISLAND

SAN DIEGO, Oct. "a U.P Ma
val assistance in the rescue of
party OF three adventures who set
sail from here December % in the
auxiliary yawl West Wind was asked
today by Julius Fleischman, wealthy
Cincinnati yachtsman.
The request was made in a radio
dispatch to the 18th naval district
here after Fleischman's yacht, Ca
margo, put into Cocos Island, 300
miles south of Balboa, c.. 2. and
found the temporary camp of the
marooned men.
A note found in the camp indi-
Gated the men had gone to the in
ner part of the island in search of
food, the radio said.
The trio is believed to be Elmer
J. Pallister, San Diego, Paul Sa-
tachwick of Huron, S. D., and Cor
don E. Crawner of Springfield, Ill.
Fred Pohl of San Francisco, who
was aboard the West Wind when it
sailed from here, is believed to have
left the craft at Mazatlan. He an
nounced before leaving here he
would leave the yaWl at Mazatlan
and paddle down the coast In the
frail Kayak which he padded to
San Diego from San Francisco.
The radio from Fleischman indi-
Gated the West Wind was wrecked
about April Is and that the men
had been living Robinson Crusoe"
life since.
Local naval authorities said naval
assistance, if ordered by Washing
ton, probably would be sent from
Panama.
Cocos island. tiny dot in the
Pacific, is famed in legend as pi-
rates haven during the early Span
ish traders.

The Citizens Clearing committee,
elected by representatives of 26 Or
ganizations and appointed by Mayor
Fawcett to provide for the admin
istration of the relief work of Ell
Centro, has been meeting regularly
and planning its program.
The committee is composed of W.
w McEuen, chairman; Mayor H.
W. Fawcett, F.. J. Gianola, John
Donohue, Norman Dupont and Mrs.
B. F. Gruwell.
This committee has now outlined
its plan of procedure sufficiently
to make a public statement of its
program, according to Chairman
McEuen. 1t especially desires to
make its statement so that all re-
lief organizations may proceed with
their own part OF the community
relief program.
The plans of the committee are
based on the proposition that 1t is
not an additional relief organiza-
ton but that its duty is to coordin-
ate the work of the existing Or
ganizationS SO as to secure the high
est efficiency. To accomplish this
end the committee plans to divide
the work of relief along the fol-
lowing general lines:
l. Transients who must be fed
and lodged for one night will be
cared for by the Salvation Army.
2. Transient families will all be
referred to the Red Cross.
3. All local families calling for
relief will be referred to the repre-
sentative of the committee, invest
igation made by the Red Cross and
relief furnished by the proper agen-
cy.

Result OF Conference At
White House Withheld
By Administration.
BORAH IS PRESENT
Progressive Leader Makes
Strong Impression Up
on French Premier.
By RAYMOND CLAPPER
United Press Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Oct. "a. UP) -
An announcement of world impor-
tance is expected later today as a
result of conversations between
President Hoover and Premier Laval
during an overnight stay at the
White House.
1t was thought in some quarters
that this would deal in general
terms with the possibility of RADICAL
ly reducing both reparations and
war debts. A formal statement was
to be issued at the White House
this afternoon.
Five men sat in the historic Lin
coin study on the second floor OF
the White House several hours last
night seeking an approach to the
tangled European economic situa-
ton which is retarding world re-
covery from the depression. They
were President Hoover, Premier La
val. Secretary of State Stimson, Un-
dersecretary of Treasury Mills and
Jacques Bizot, interpreter. The con-
ference ended at midnight.
After some preliminary talk, q
statement was issued at the White
House saying Mr.. Hoover and Pre-
mier Laval were discussing solely
policies which each of the govern
ments could develop to expedite re-
covery from the world economic
depression.
Borah Present
This indicated a disposition not
to a tempt to make an agreement
which would foreclose other powers
but rather to find common ground.
France is in a position to act with
regard to reducing reparations, she
being the only country which COL
lects from Germany any sizeable
margin over what is paid to the
United States on war debts. The
United States is in position to re-
duce debts according to capacity to
pay. Senator william E. Borah.
chairman of the senate foreign rela-
tions committee, went so far a. to
say on the event of the Hoover
Laval discussion that he would be
willing to see the entire debt can
celled provided all reparations were
likewise wiped off the slate. It Is
too late for another moratorium
now, Borah said
IF reparations were cancelled"
he said, "I would be perfectly will
ing, in my humble capacity, to ad-
vocate the cancellation of our
debts
Another vital discussion, expected
