A World Conference.
(New York World -Telegram.)

The Washington-London suggestion of a world economic conference is splendid. Two things have been taught this nation and others by the depres- sion. One is that the basic are economic The other is that economic forces not national but international.
 Such being the case, it is only matter of very obvious intelligence for the nations to get together to eliminate which injure them all and to produce results which will benefit them all. Of course, there is nothing new about the idea Iof world economic conference There at Geneva in 1927 There another though more limited in scope in 1928. Neither of them improved the state of the world, which the contrary, has grown worse.
 On the basis of this record one might consider lanother effort hopeless. That indeed the atti Itude of President Hoover recently when he vetoed the Democratic tariff bill, which carried provision for a world economic conference
 It seems to fortunate that the President has become hopeful. He has now accepted the idea, at least in a limited way, according to the State Department announcement. In fact, Foreign Minister Simon told the British House of Commons yesterday that this latest proposal originated in Washington, which means at the White House.
 Just why Washington should announce that the idea originated in London and London should insist that it was born in Washington is not clear. This confusion, however, is not important unless it means that the two governments practicing the old diplomatic trick of discussing solutions which they have no intention of carrying out
 The trouble with those other two economic ferences about which Mir Hoover was so discouraged was the nsncerity of the governments participating
 They were not willing to abolish their own selfish trade restrictions against foreign and to batter down their tariff walls. They were not willing to cut down debts and separations to point which necessity imposes upon them
 It is futile however, to blame the other fellow as long attitude is so unintellgently selfish. In the very breath that the State De- partment announced acceptance of the international conference plan it specified that the conference would have nothing to do with debts, repara- tins, disarmament any other than purely econ- omic subjects
 There may be some disagreement - though we cannot understand it-aS to whether disarmament is an economic question. But if debts not an economic question words have lost their meaning
 Tariff is another economic question which Wash ington apparently would shut out from the purely economic conference
 For many months there has been need of an economic conference on debts, disarmament expense and tarff-the three-in-one economic issue which must be settled to stop the world depression But a world conference which concentrated on results like the fall in commodity prices, without getting back to causes, would be just another conference

The Republican Party in the platform adopted at Chicago last week declared an Alaska policy as follows:
 We favor a policy of giving to the people
 of Alaska the widest possible Territorial
 self-government selection so far as possible
 of bona fide residents for positions in that
 Territory and placing it's citizens on equal
 ty with those in the several States.
 While we can see no good reason why the limit ing word possible" should have been attached to the promise of real self-government and to the pledge to give Federal appointments to Alaskans instead of sending carpetbaggers here to fill such offices, constrained to admit that such a policy will be an improvement on the that has prevailed for the past 12 years Even though the first two promises in the pledge vague and are susceptible of more than interpretation the third, to put Alaskans par with the rest of the countrys citizenship, is worthwhile. It could easily happen that the next Administration, should it continue Republican will say that Alaska already has the widest self government possible for 1t to exercise. It might also appoint nonresidents to Federal positions in the Territory and claim it not possible to resident Alaskans These plat form pledges technically at least could still be de- fended But it cannot continue to follow policies in effect since 1920 many matters of public interest to and in Alaska and fulfill it's promise that the Republican Party will place tits citizens on equality with those in the several States"

SYNOPSIS: Racing along Jerry Calhoun and his friend, Emory Battles, search for the kidnapers of Nancy Wentworth and two well-known million aires. In letters demanding ransom, the kidnapers have given instructions to leave the money in a rowbcat moored ten miles southeast of Mon tauk Point lighthouse. No boats may remain within eight miles of the rowboat. But Jerry and Emory hope to trick the gang by using an airpIane for pur- suit. Jerry is particularly con- cerned with catching the men, because he was with Nancy when she was abducted, and although he was hurt in an at- tempt to help her he feels re- spOnsible for her capture. That the captOrs are of superior in- telligence is plainly seen. from the letters. No promise has been made as to the return of the prisoners, but there are yelled threats about the results if instructions are not carried cut.

lower wings. They gazed down in astonishment. Hidden on the Gardiner's bay side of the point were four more picket boats and another destroyer Between the point and Block Island could be seen several of the larger rum running patrol craft, which were drifting about, apparently in des- ignated position, awaiting the call to action.
 Jerry turned sharply over the lighthouse and headed on south erly course, bearing straight out to sea. AS he had anticipated. he soon saw an almost invisible white speck on the water which represented, presumably, the row. boat in which a fortune in hun dred dollar bills awaited the kid naperS.
 From their lofty seats Jerry and Emory could see that the authori- ties, acting in cooperation with the coast guard, had drawn a network of ships about the boat from which it would be almost impossible to escape. Yet each of the guard ships was so far away from the row. boat as to be invisible at sea level. Jerry understood the Strat- egy that was so evident from above. The kidnapers' speedboat would un- doubtedly be permitted to approach the rowboat unhindered Having grabbed the money, the criminals would turn to race for safety. But the chances Of successfully eluding the cordon of vigilant ships seemed, from the air, to be slight, indeed.

thunbed the focusing wheel of his binoculars. There, far to t he southwest, was another airplane, winging it's way straight toward the center of the encircled area It was well below the slowly flying plane. forging along at an alti- tude of about five thousand feet. Emory stared at it, trying to dis tinguish it's type and it's mark ings.
 With ten or twelve thousand feet of space separating the two ships, it was to be hoped that the other pilot would not notice the plane which was spying upon him.
 At last Emory's practised eyes discerned the curious hook -nosed underbody of an amphibian, a type of ship equally at home on or over landfand sea.
 Jerry obeying an instinct, ac- quired during the war, worked the biplane into a position between the sun and the lower amphibian. While he was able to keep that strategic position he would be al- most invisible to the flyers below.
 The strange pilot betrayed no uncertainty of purpose Straight as a bullet he flew toward the little rOWbOat anchored within, tho far flung circle of waiting vessels. The amphibian suddenly nosed and began to steep dive toward the surface. Jerry closed his throt- tie and put the biplane into a glide.
 "They's after the money" he roared above the popping of the motor and the whistle of the wind

, Jerry hoped that he was flying sufficiently high to be unobserv-
 ed.
 Emory studied the outlying ring
 of ships, rejoicing in the tense ex- citement of the minute. What a binge this might turn out to be!
 He was content with life again for the first time in months. Surfeit- cd with the hothouse atmosphere of New York night club life; he had turned the key on his Gram ercy Park apartment For while at least, he had enjoyed the quiet
 calm of the mid-Victorian house on Beason Street, Boston. But.
 as usual, six weeks of peace had
 whetted his appetite for adven
 ture tlgA
 He had picked up a tWo-day old newspaper with the vague idea of reading the advertisements of round the world cruises when his eye had fallen upon the first page story of the spectacular kid napings in New York The affair had appealed to his imagination and he had read the article with interest Midway to the bottom of the first column he had come upon Jerry's name. Forty five minutes later his roadster was roaring toward the scene of ac- tion Had the dispatch told of Jerry's injury in a Paris brawl, he would have sailed op the next steamer. Jerry, the gay-hearted war buddy of the 199th Pursuit Wing, the never-failing friend, was the one man in the world whom Emory never tired of seeing.
 The friendship between these two men who had flown, fought and played together lay too deep for speech. 1t was something that each took as much for granted as the rising and setting of the sun
 Emory stiffened in his seat, bent far over the cockpit wall and

CHAPTER 5. THEY'RE AFTER THE MONEY

Jerry's eyes followed the line of EmoryS pointing arm There, per haps eight miles from shore, were three child's size destroyers, steam ing eastward in a fan-chaped for nation. Four or five minutes lat CT, off Southampton, another could be seen, idling along a mile or two off the beach. Between East Hampton and Amagansett they flew over a half-dozen coast guard boats
 The plane was flying at it's ceil- ing, sixteen thousand feet, when its crew saw the lighthouse at Montauk point slide beneath their

through wires and struts.
 Emody nodded briefly, his blue eyes glittering with excitement. He focused his glasses again upon the amphibian, which was now leveling out for a landing not thirty feet from the tossing boat.
 Small a5 was the toy-like plane beneath them, Emory could see a tiny black figure standing upon the lower wing as it's pilot steered for the row boat. The man leaped into the boat, remaining there for a moment, then as the amphibian turned slowly into the wind, he returned to the wing. Presently he was seated again in the rear rockpit.
 The amphibisn began to move. through the water, leaving. behind a spear shaped wake which con- trasted sharply against the blue background of the sea. The wake ceased abruptly. The ,swift-moy- ing plane. now in it's natural ele- ment, banked in a wide, swinging arc toward the southwest and pur- sued a ruler-straight course in the whence it had appeared.
 Jerry wnirled the plane around and headed after the amphibian still keeping within the blinding rays of the sun
