dicted today by G. E. Pendray, vice
president Of the American Interplane-
tary Society, who has just returned
from conferences in Germany with
leaders of a similar society.
He said German scientists predict
that in two years rockets powered by
liquid fuel will fly across the Atlantic
every half hour. carrying SO pounds of
mail or merchandise.
When 1 left Germany a few weeks
ago plans were complete for sending
up the newest type rocket by liquid
fuel" said Mr. Pendray. German sci
entists, working secretly on the rocket.
seem to have solved the basic problem
of sending rockets soaring for miles into
the sky by liquid power. Our trouble
here has been that the dry fuel now used
does not yield sufficient power for the
long flight"
The Germans have charted the
course from a field in Germany to a
field in the vicinity of New York, where
the projectiles will land" said Mr.. Pen
dray. "A Parachute viii be used for
the landing. The same rocket will
then be shot back across the Atlantic
over another course with different
cargo"

i. S. TO RECOGNIZE
SPANISH REPUBLIC
Stimson InStructs laughlin,
Envoy at Madrid, to Call
at Foreign Office.
BY JOSEPH S. EDGERTON.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Secretary Stinson announced today
that Ambassador Laughlin, at Madrid,
would extend American recognition to
the new Spanish government.
The recognition was ID be extended
on instructions of the Secretary.
The Ambassador in his report to the
Secretary said he had arranged to
formally carry out his instructions By
calling at the Spanish foreign Office
today.
May Send Madariaga.
With the announcement BY the Lon
don foreign Office that the British
empire was willing to begin diplomatic
relations with the new government, it
was felt in Washington that the prin-
cipal nations of Europe and Latin
America were now agreed in regarding
the change Of government as an &C
complished fact.
The State Department today had net
been approached with regard to the
appointment of Salvador de Macariaga,
noted scholar and author, to be the
Spanish republics frs. Ambassador TO
washington.
Although diplomatic usage requires
that the name of a new Ambassador
be submitted to the government 70
which ne is to be accredited for It's
agreement before the appointment is
made public, the minister OF state at
Madrid already has announced MAZDA
riaga's selection for this post.
Chances Held Good.
In official circles here this departure
from usual procedure was regarded
merely as an incident likely TO arise
in the dealings of a new and diplo-
maticany inexperienced regime with
foreign nations.
The slip was not regarded as likely
to harm the chances Of Senior MAZDA
riaga's acceptance by the United States
if his name were submitted as pros
pectiye Ambassador.
The newly appointed Spanish Am
bassador is well known at the embassy

RASKOB, AL SMITH
AND SHOUSE MEET
Leaders Discuss Democratic
Finances-Chairman Re-
peats Wet Aims.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 22-Three lead
ing figures of the Democratic party
John j. Raskob, Jouett Shouse and Al
fred E. Smith-conferred here today on
the party deficit.
Mr.. Raskob, chairman of the Demo-
cratic National Committee, said the con-
ference had no other significance, and
candidates or policies were not to be
discussed. Mr.. Shouse is chairman of
the Executive Committee.
Won't Resign, He Says.
Mr. Raskob said he had no intention
of resigning, declaring demands for his
resignation had come from dry DEM
ocrats not connected with the National
Committee. mot one national commit
teeman or committeeman has asked
my resignation" he said.
The only flaw in Mr.. Raskob's picture
of Democratic success in 1882, he said,
is the possibility the party may not see
the necessity of setting itself forth prop
erly on the prohibition question. The
party platform. he insists, must pledge
its representatives in Congress to sup
port a resolution amending the Consti-
tuition to afford the people an opportu-
nifty to decide the prohibition question
for themselves.
Finds Less Opposition.
There is not the opposition to his pro-
hibition plan that there was before 1t
was understood Mr.. Raskob said.
He expressed the belief the business
was ended. The prob
lem, he said will be to guard against its
repetition. He believes that will be one
of the three live issues of the next
campaign
Republicans and Democrats should
state clearly what they stand for" he
said. There are three live subjects
to be decided at the next election-pro-
hibition, the tariff and establishment of
an economic balance that will not only
restore prosperity but make impossible
the recurrence of depressions of such
grave severity as that through which
We have just passed"
The Democratic chairman does not
believe improvement of business condi-
ton will benefit Republican chances.
1T is my firm belief" he said, that
the Republican party is Ehot to pieces"

D. A. R. RAPS SOVIET
ON GOODS DUMPING
Teachers Allegiance Oath
and Embargo on Imports
From Russia Asked.

Innpatience with Congress for failing
to act on the Oddie bill providing for
an embargo on Russian imports was ex-
pressed today in the report Of the Legis-
lative Committee of the National So
ciety, Daughters CT the American Revo-
luton, urging campaign to arouse

ticn of immigration from Latin America
and support of military training in
schools and universities also was de-
manded in the report.
Election Chief Topic.

was being conducted on behalf of nine
candidates for the cfice of vice presi-

eral At o'clock this afternoon the
daughters will be received at the White
House by President and Mrs. Hoover.
For the first time in the history of the
society the pages have been invited by
the First Lady TO assist her in receiv-
ing.
Denunciation of Soviet dumping in
this country was voiced vigorously in
Mrs. Morgan'S report.
During the past year we have had
an object lesson in the damaging effect
of permitting commodities produced by
organized slavery to be received in a
country which recognizes the working
man as the most important factor in
its economic welfare" the report stated.
The effect of this dumping is not only
to demoralize our markets, cripple our
industries and add to our problems of
unemployment, but at the same time
it strengthens the hold of an un-
friendly nation upon us. In these days
we cannot afford to be penny wise and
pound foolish
Teachers Oath Asked.
The "exigcncies of the occasion" de-
mand the passage OF the teachers oath
