Smith, the church's founder, an

in palaces.
Taken to their new Central Amer
lean home, the mother and daughter
found themselves isolated in a
jungle far from civilization.
Their rescue was effected through
the efforts of G. D. Blake, Critobal
postmaster, to whom word of their
plight filtered through by way Of in
land travellers.
He interested the Red Cross
which sent plane and brought the
women to a Cristobal hospital.
Mrs. Williams, arriving today was
bent and frail white haired, be-
specialized and weighing less than
100 pounds. Her daughter, red
haired and freckled, showed little

undergone.
They were both reluctant to talk
of their experiences. But they did
answer one question:
Go back? Never!"

err and place a part of it upon those
able to pay.
Speedy consideration and passage
would mean that, in spite of de-
lays in the senate, it would come
to a final vote before the forty days
have expired.
But delay means that the income
tax bills either would die in senate
committee or be killed in the rush
on the last day.
The reason is obvious-and the
house chaos is adding to the diff
ficulties in obtaining enactment Of
remedial legislation.
It isn't the fault of the DEM
ocratic floor leader, DELPHI McKess-
on. He is trying hard to get some
thing done, but the house members,
the majority of whom are lame
ducks, are not particularly anxious
that this be achieved.
Besides, there is a great deal Of
petty jealousy and pickering all
apparently beyond the power of
Speaker Walter Myers to halt.
In the ways and means commit
tee today are two -Crawford's
bill calling for 20 per cent slash
in state appropriations Except the
highway Department., and the Nc
Kesson proposal for a 10 per cent
reduction.
The Republican minority eau
cussed and decided that it would
support the larger cut. 1t knows
thatit probably never will pass, and
therefore the G. o. P. will be on
record for drastic reductions in gov
ernmental expenditures and in
favor of economy.
If they had any idea that the %
per cent slash would be passed, the
Republicans would be first to OPP
pose the bill.
Instead, they are letting the
Democrats juggle the hot Goals.
And this will result in more chaos.
Some kindly disposed persons eX-
cuse the legislative catastrophe on
the ground of the excessive heat.
1t is more probable that the mem
bers can't stand the dizzy whirl of
the Claypool revolving door.

ITALY STIRS UP
FEAR OF NAVAL
BUILDING RACE
Charges That WarShips Are
Constructed Secretly Is
Unanswered.
BY RICHARD ID. MILAN
United Press Stan Correspondent

PARIS, July 25.-A naval con-
ference to exert pressure on France
and Italy to obtain their ratification
of the London naval treaty, was
suggested today as the next dipi-
lomatic move in the arms reduction
campaign.
After Italy's action in refraining
from voting on the final resolution
of the Geneva arms conference
Saturday, CONSERVATION was caused
here and in London today by charges
that Italy secretly is building war
ships.
The report, published in the Lon
don Telegraph, said Italy was con-
structing two 6,700-ton cruisers, two
6l5-ton destroyers of great speed.
and the small craft, all in excess of
the program outlined after the Lon
don conference.
II the reports should be confirmed.
1t would mean the breach between
France and Italy is wider than was
imagined and might lead to renewal
OF the naval race between them.
Renewal of extensive naval build
ing by the Mediterranean powers,
it was feared, would force Britain
to invoke the "escalator" clause of
the London treaty, which permits
her to build beyond treaty strength
if her Mediterranean supremacy is
endangered by building of other
powers.
Such an eventuality would wreck
both the London treaty and the
arms conference.
Diplomatic observers understood
Britain is anxious that France and
Italy confer at London in either a
three-power or five-power confer
ence-the latter including the
United States and Japan. 1t was
believed Ambassador Hugh S. Glib
son of the United States again
would play the preliminary role of
conciliator between Paris and Rome.

note of the house of representatives,
as it convenes today for the third
week of the special session of the
general assembly.
There isn't any leadership and
