Among the many gems is a solid

PLEA FOR ARMS

WASHINGTON, Oct. 26. U.P)-
Deploring the "snail's pace" set by
the nations for averting wars, Pres
ident Hoover last night appealed
for new world spirit that would
force retrenchment in armaments.
Mr.. Hoover's appeal was made in
radio address to the Methodist
Ecumenical congress at Atlanta.
"A new spirit must be made in
the world on this subject" the
President said. "A new spirit must
be created within the nations and
between the nations.

In WORLD WIDE
PLEA FOR PEACE
Treaty Revision And Re-
duction Of ReparatiOns
Given Support.
BY THOMAS b. MORGAN
United Press Staff Correspondent

NAPLES, Italy, Oct. 26. U.P)-
Premier Benito Mussolini, who rose
to power leading the Fascist army's
march on Rome nine years ago. had
Joined the ranks of world leaders
clamoring for revision of World War
peace treaties and reparations,
Addressing the largest audience
he had ever faced, MusSolini told
100000 Italians here such action
was necessary to lead the world
from the darkness into which it was
plunged by the World War.
His audience packed the immense
Piazza PlebiScito and overflowed in
to side streets.
The premier's remarks were ad-
dressed to all Italians and not to
Fascists alone, adding further dis
tinction to his plea.
IF so long years the estimated
reparations period must pass be-
fore we can write fins to the trag-
ic balance sheet built on the flood
OF 100000 youths, we will never
again see the light of day, Musso-
lini said
Can we say that judicial equality
exists among nations when on one
side there are those armed to the
teeth, while on the other hand there
are those miserably condemned to
be disarmed?"
How can we talk of European re-
construction Of several clauses of
the various peace treaties which
have pushed the world to the brink
OF material disaster and moral deS-
peration are not modified?"
How long will it take to convince
mankind that something is disjoint-
ed in the worlds economic ma
chine?"
Mussolini emphasized the neces-
sity of government turning toward
the people but avoiding monopolis-
tic bolsheviSm or obsolete liberalism.
I'VE have nothing to fear even If
capitalism of other countries is ex-
| periencing so many disasters" he
| said.
Mussolini warned that attempts
| to interrupt the unity of the Fascist
| regime would be severely crushed
He exalted the italian monarchy
and invoked the devotion of his

new DISCOVERY
ANNOUNCED BY
PROF. ElNSTEuN
Fifth Dimension Field
Invaded BY Noted Ger
man Scientist.

NEW YORK, Oct. 26. U.P)-Pro-
fessor Albert Einstein has evolved
a new unified theory in collabora-
ton with his assistant, DR.. Walter
Mayer, involving five dimensions
and based on new mathematical
concept.
Einstein has abandoned his older
unified field theory as "a striving
in the wrong direction" The new
concept is based on theories ex-
pounded by Theodore Kaluza in
1921 which Einstein previously re-
garded as mot acceptable
Announcement of the new theory
was made here by the Josiah Macy,
Jr., foundation, which provided Elm
stein with a collaboration in the
person of Mayer. Details will be
published soon, probably at Pasa-
dena, Cal, where the German math-
ematician worked last winter
Prior to Einsteins work a mater
ial object was generally considered
to exist in space, time, an electro
magnetic field and a gravitational
field. Einstein's special theory of
relativity combined space and time
into one; the general relativity
theory absorbed the gravitational
field into space-time; and now the
new theory includes the electro
magnetic field in the concept
Kalauzas theory postulated a
fifth dimension, enabling him to
obtain field laws agreeing with the
known field laws Of both electricity
and gravitation. Einstein at first
objected to this theory because the
reality Of the fifth dimension was
not In the same degree as the other
four.
But the new theory, according to
Einstein's statement, formally ap-
proximates Kaluza's theory without
being exposed to the objection just
stated, by the introduction of an en-
tirely new mathematical concept"

JAPANESE STAND
FIRM IN REFUSAL
TO MOVE TROOPS
Will Not Heed Mandate
OF League But Hopes
To Remain A Member.
BY MILES w. VAUGHN
United Press Staff Correspondent

TOXIC, Oct. 26. U.P) Japan
stood firm today on her refusal to
set a definite date for withdrawal
of her troops from Manchuria.
A restatement Of the Japanese
policy after refusing league of ma
tions demand for withdrawal of
troops by November 16 was framed
by the cabinet. There was no
change in the government policy,
and emphasis was placed on "scru-
pulous respect for Japan's rights
and interest in Manchuria acquired
by treaty"
There was no indication that ia
pan would withdraw from the
league. No change was expected in
her position. Japan's vote against
the league councils formula for
settlement of the Manchurian dis
pute with China made the council
resolution ineffective, as 1t required
unanimity.
The japanese press felt that Ken
kichi Yoshizawa, head of the &C.
neva delegation, failed because he
did not state Foreign Minister Ba-
ron Shideharas S five points for a
settlement before the council and
have them inserted in the official
record. Newspapers predicted that
YoshiZawa would not represent ia
pan if the council meets again on
November 16 for further considera-
ton of the Manchurian problem.
1t was announced officially that
Japanese troops are occupying the
Supingkai-T railway to pro-
tect japanese interests. The most
serious fighting in Manchuria oc-
cured when Chinese troops at
tempted to destroy a Japanese
owned railway bridge and were
bombed by Japanese aviators. China
owns the railroad but the Japanese
owned South Manchurian railroad
and the Yokohama specie bank
holds mortgages on the road total
ling 100000 yen.
1t was considered possible that
troops might be withdrawn within
the treaty zone in Manchuria by Nov.
l6 but withdrawal depended upon
developments. Baron Shidehara in
sisted upon security for japanese
nationals and the pledge of non-
aggression and respect for treaty
rights.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 26. UP)-
Prospect of further relief for war
debts and reparations opened up to-
day as a result of the visit Of Pre-
mier Laval just ended. 1t is move
aimed at the heart of the world
wide depression.
Laval and President Hoover
agreed that further relief was neces-
sary during the period OF the de-
preston. 1t was agreed. however,
that Germany must take the initia-
tive under the Young reparations
plan by asking for appointment of
an allied commission to investigate
her situation. Officials here expect
such move.
When the Allies have granted re-
lief. President Hoover will ask con-
gress to create a new debt commits
sion to consider reduction Of war
debts
1t also was agreed that measures
would be taken to check heavy
French Withdrawals of gold from
the United States. France is eX-

President Hoover and Premier La
val agreed in a joint communique
that maintenance of the gold STAN
dard in France and the United
States would be major influence
in restoring normal economic life.
These were the two major de-
velopments in the Hoover-Laval
conversations. Practically no prog
