MOFFETT DECLARES.
Admiral Urges More Military
Training as Means of
JobIeSS Relief.

More military training. particularly
as a means of relieving unemployment,
aud the building up Of the American
Navy to treaty strength, for the same
reason, were advocated yesterday by
Rear Admiral William A. Moffett, u.
S. N, Chief of the Bureau Of Aero
nautics, Navy Department, in mes
sage to the American Legion Conven-
tion, Department of Georgia, in Macon.
Referring to the Bonus Expeditionary
Force, Admiral Moffett paid tribute to
''the example set by the veterans in
Washington, who, although heartsick
and discouraged, have remained within
the law and accepted without a mur-
mur the vote in the Senate against the
bonus, actually singing America as
they left the Capitol.
IF veterans demand and get more
than are their just rights, as compared
with other citizens, 1t will bring dis
credit on all men who have fought for
their country, and when the next war
comes those who wear the uniform will
be regarded with suspicion instead of
pride and. admiration, and people will
wonder whether they are fighting for
country or for personal gain," the ad-
miral told the Georgians.
Turning to a consideration of the
Navy, Admiral Moffett said:
we have fallen steadily behind other
navies. Not a ship has been even
authorized by Congress since the Lon
don treaty was signed, more than two
years ago. The ratio, instead of being
5-5-3,. is nearer 1876. The only ges-
ture that has been made toward build
ing up to the London treaty is the pas
sage by the Senate of bill authorizing
the building of ships in all the cate
gorieS allowed by the treaty, and the
bill introduced by Mr.. Vinson of
Georgia, providing for building I'D to
the treaty limits. But the House has
failed TO pass the Vinson bill or the
Senate bill. Various bills have been
introduced for relieving unemployment.
including an extra appropriation of
$4,000, 900 for road building. but ma
tional defense seems to have been for
gotten and that 85 per cent of the cost
of naval vessels goes into labor, whereas
only 80 per cent of the cost of road
building goes into labor
Admiral Moffett pointed out to the
Leglonna1reS the present situation in
aircraft: "AS Navy man associated
with aviation, I will tell you that we
have made much progress; that your
naval aviation is not surpassed in eff
cheney by any other; that you can be
justly proud Of your aviators, both
Navy and Army. But we are far be-
hind other navieS in the treaty ratio
of aviation vessels, and therefore in
airplanes"
The admiral told his audience there
Is nothing more reprehensible than a
Navy or Army man, or an ex Navy or
Army man, criticizing his commander
m-chief or his government, of which
he IS part, and such conduct should
not be tolerated by the public"

DOUBLE SPEED OF BOAT
OBTAINED BY FINS
Increase of Power Not Needed to
Attain High Rate Under
New Method.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW HAVEN, Conn, June PA
method of nearly doubling the speed OF
water craft up to SO feet in length by
reducing resistance instead of increas-
ing power was reported yesterday to the
American Society of Mechanical Engi-
neers. meeting at Yale.
DR.. Oskar G. T1etjens, Westinghouse
research engineer, exhibited model of
boat equipped with two stream-lined
planes having cross sections similar to
those of airplane wings, by which the
craft is raised out of the water.
Although the idea is not new, DR..
Tietjens believes his apparatus is the
first to prevent loss of stability.

for many years under an executive who
until his company went into a merger
had never been sold on research. Then
he saw the handwriting on the wall
through an auger hole! Lying on a
newspaper in a room on the second
floor of his factory building. he was
peeping through an auger hole which
opened into the room beneath him. Be-
side him lay young technical man
he who had drilled the said hole
chuckling And beneath them, all un-
aware that by these tokens the old
order was changing giving way to new,
was an old fellow putting on a corn
cob pipe and puttering about room,
his private domain. on whose door he
might just as well have had a sign,
No admittance. Do not enter without
knocking Do not knock"
This old fellow was the company's
mixer of rubber compounds. He, alone
among the company's employees, knew
just what went into the company's
products and when, but not technically
why. He Rugged these secrets unto
himself and as a result, he was cock O.
the walk. He received almost as much
salary as the boss; he came to work
when in his judgment desirable, and
had been known to say conclusively
that his salary was not satisfactory,

for future revision, will not be de-
stroyed"
One theory advanced is that Russia
is utilizing its understanding with Ger
many and has desired this agitation
Russia, it is said. fears war in the
near future with Japan at Vladivostok
1t fears that in case this war occurs
Poland may attack it in the west and
therefore is glad to see Poland par
alyzed from such action by fear of Ger
many.
But there is also the French angle to
this situation. The Franco-Polish al
lance, as it was not renowned this
year, now presumably is renewed auto
matically for another 10 years. But
the French people. particularly voters
of the victorious Left III the recent
elections, have no ambition whatever to
fight for Poland. They want only
peace, quiet and perhaps. if they had
been consulted, would have declared
against the Polish alliance. Poland. in
any case. is not popular with doc
trinaire French liberals >who look on it
as reactionary Catholic country gov
erened by an oligarchy of generals.
1t so happens that Poland just now
is asking for loan from France
Premier Andre Tardieu Is said to have
promised this loan, but has now turned
over this affair to his presumed sue
cessor. Edouard Herriot. The latter is
in dilemma. If he grants the loan,
the Left will accuse him Of financing
reaction and promoting ornaments,
while. If he refuses, the Right will &C
cuse him Of disrupting Frances alli-
ances and tending to disarm Poland at
the very moment when the Hitlerites
are assuming a threatening attitude
The agitation at Danzig. therefore, is
not entirely without effect even on fu-
ture Franco-Polish relations.

Famous Inn in Germany
Observes l5Oth Birthday

BERLIN, Germany-zum Hirsch,
the famous German inn in Echterdin-
gen, which in the old days used to
cater to such world celebrities as
Goethe, Schiller, Hauff an others,
observed its 150th anniversary recent
ly. What seems unique about the res
taurant, aside from the fact that it
had served famed personalities in the
past, is that throughout its existence
it has been in the possession of one
family That is to say, members Of the
same family managed to run the estab-
lishment continuously for the last cen
fury and a half.
The inn became world famous over
night, when, on August 4, 1908, Count
Zeppelin was forced to make an emer-
gency landing in the vicinity of the
restaurant Subsequently the huge air
ship was destroyed by terrific hurri-
cane room Of zum Hirsch contains
mementos of the air tragedy, which
today are admirably preserved.

whereat he always got his price. That
didn't please his boss. 1t made him
wish that, like many an old-time execu-
tive, he, himself. had put on work
clothes, locked the doors and COM
pounded the company's rubber. Also
the tyranny of the mixer made his boss
curious about research, the only way
out.
So it was that now. with young
technical man beside him, he lay on his
stomach and watched the old fellow be-

in laboratories by experts who test
everything to be manufactured and send
their recipes out to the work rooms

Herriot to Be Premier Again.
NJ Herriot was then premier and
minister of foreign affairs. The ma
jority which then reigned in the French
Parliament, If this monarchic express
sion may be used regarding the pre-
carious nominations of parliamentary
majorities, was sensibly the same in
political complexion as that the French
electorate has just sent back to take
charge Of affairs at the Palais Bourbon.
1t IS certain M. Herriot will again be
premier and minister of foreign affairs
and it is difficult to imagine the aban-
comment of the principles Of the proto-
col by those who are proud Of having
made them part of the foreign policy
Of France.
Since 1924 all governments have
claimed credit for them, and the Lo-
carno pactS were no more than a bril-
liant but partial application Of them to
q definite region of Europe, to the line
OF the Rhine which has been in dispute
so many ages.
What does this mean? France de-
mands all or nothing? No! But France,
in the depths of her spirit, in her almost
complete unanimity, Is convinced that,

have explained previously the
reason for the failure of the Danubian
conference. That failure, we must
hope. was only temporary. I have writ
ten that the Danubian States must
count upon themselves in the first
place, like the Italians of the Risorgi-
mento, like the Americans of the War
of Independence.
This does not mean the Danubian
c countries can manage without the
and economic aid Of the
great powers. The more effective the
cooperation they establish among
themselves beforehand. however, the
more readily will the aid of the great
powers be forthcoming.
Those who fight most stifly against
that kind of cooperation will be the
most eager to benefit by it when they
at length understand there IS room for
everybody in the markets it will create,
and that in hampering it from political
considerations or questions of prestige
or of egoism, they were simply fighting
against themselves.

sions. These are working, engaged

quired upon the resumption of the dis
cussions of the general commission, in
which, by the way, the French and
American delegates sit side by side, not

French the delegates Of the Etats Unis
must be placed next to those of France.
It is only in the general commits
sion that the political problems which
from the beginning have weighed SO
heavily upon the conference especially
those which arise between France and
Germany, can be solved. Those prob
