AUSTRALIANS TELL
HOOVER OF PARLEY
Ex-Premier Bruce and Trade
Minister GulIett Call at
White House.

Stanley NJ Bruce, former prime min
lister of Australia, and H. S. Gullett,
minister of state for trade and customs,
who were the two principal Australian
delegates at, the recent Imperial Con-
ference at Ottawa, discussed that con-
ference briefly today with President
Hoover. The two visitors were accom-
panied to the White House by the
charge d'affaires of the British embassy.
Mr.. Bruce said as he was leaving the
Executive Office that his visit to the
President was without significance. He
stated, by way of explanation OF the
outcome OF the Ottawa conference, that
the objective was to adjust and to IN
crease the internal trade of the British
Empire and that the aim of the con-
ference was to not set up trade bar
riers but to eliminate them.
Asked whether the discussion with
the President touched upon possible re-
actions upon the United States inter-
ests as a result of the Ottawa confer
ence. Mr. Bruce replied. that remained
for the President to answer.
No trade pact or declaration of policy
between nations can assure commercial
recovery until commodity price levels
advance, Mr. Bruce said last night in
a. press interview.
He would not discuss the nature Of
his New York calls but said no progress
had been made at, Ottawa toward get
ting a British guarantee behind
Australia's public debt for the purpose
of converting current bonds to low
interest paper.
Australian statisticians in his en-
tourage, he said, will, within the next
few days, study the statistical structure
of the United States Government, which
he described as an extraordinary system.

seen. And what is more, the water in the vicin-
ity was 200 fathoms deep. Needless to say, the
trangulation scheme had to be revised to utilize
the islands that actually did exist.
Investigation developed the fact that the old
chart was compiled from British and Spanish
sources neither being much more than geo
graphical reconnaissance. The Spaniards had
laid down a group Of islands (actually exist
ing) as Datubato Islands, while the British
working eastward from Borneo had located the
same islands, but ON different datum, and
had named them the Tagbabas Islands. The
two chart makers could do nothing but show
them as two different groups. As it turned out.
the Spanish had the islands laid down in nearly
the correct position, 50 the Tagbabas Islands
went by the boards and on the new charts only
the Datubato Islands are shown.
Datubato proved to be large coral ston with
an interior lagoon IL feet deep in places and
with several small islets perched On the out
side edge Of the rim With these stolls the
edge Of the reef first builds up and then small
islets with tropical vegetation begin to appear.
Datubato is uninhabited, but the Moros en-
gagged in pearling and fishing thereabout often
land and remain ON shore for short periods.
While the q. S. S. Pathfinder was working in
this vicinity one Of the officers in charge of
camping party rendered first aid to a Moro who
had cut his hand. The news spread rapidly
and the next morning saw fleets of vintas bear
Mg dozens of them to the camp and all want
ing treatment for some real or imagined wound.
The camp In no time became q clinic and the
survey officer an unwilling doctor. In order to
finish the survey work he had to discontinue
treatments.
The islands which the Princess Dayang
claims lie far to the westward of Sulu and near
the coast Of Borneo. When the treaty with
Spain was made at the close Of the Spanish
American war, the knowledge of geography of
this locality was SO meager that the boundary
line was only vaguely drawn and the status Of
the islands remained uncertain. However,
recent treaty laid down very definite boundary
based ON the new surveys and this leaves the
Turtle Islands in United States territory. These
are the lost" islands Of the princess.
Evening star., 1932-11-06

4 STANDS, it seems may become misplaced or
lost just like any common, ordinary pos
session, and from the far-dstant Sulu
Sea where great honey-colored moons cast
their mellow pathway across the seas pew
ter surface and the slim vintas of the Moro,
the Princess Dayang- -Dayang, niece Of the Sui
tan OF Sulu, finds some IA islands numbered
among her possessions are missing. Further,
she claims the United States should find and
restore them to her.
Where are these islands? Are they valuable?
Where have they gone or what caused them to
disappear Is 1t possible to return this magical,
mythical kingdom to the princess? The situa-
ton has the earmarks Of q comic opera or q
fairy tale.
The princess says her islands a group
known as the Turtle Islands" and thereby
hangs another tale. Just as We have hen eggs
for breakfast, 50 must the Moro and the Chi
nese over Borneo way have their turtle eggs
The islands that the princess claims happen to
be rich In revenue from just that thing-turtle
eggs. There, uncounted thousands Of the crea-
lures sleep laxily upon the blue surface Of the
tropic waters and nonchalantly paddle ashore
to deposit their eggs In the sun-warmed white
coral sand.
The islands which Princess Dayang- -Dayang
claims should be restored to her are not the
only islands in the Sulu Sea which have been
lost" In its 80 years work of surveying and
charting the Philippine Islands, the United
States Coast and Geodetic Survey has literally
wiped many islands Of the chart, and, con-
versely, has added new islands to the thou
sands that already were known.
The most notable Of the "lost" islands were
the Tagbabas, charted some rs miles west Of
Jolo the capital of the Sulu group and the
home Of the Sultan. In 1926 the United States
Coast and Geodetic Survey steamer Pathfinder,
commanded by Capt. Frank S. Borden, now on
duty at the washington office Of the survey,
was assigned to the mapping of this region.
In laying out his triangulation scheme on paper
Capt Borden planned to use one of the Tag
babas Islands as his principal triangulation
point. Imagine his surprise when, with the
Pathfinder headed for the islands and the dis
tance run down, there were no islands to be
