OF underwater explorations had been
found as far back as the Roman En-
pire days, when a leather helmet had
been used to facilitate diving.
He also credited the English with hav-
ing done much to develop the art of
diving and said Roger Bacon was
prominent in the invention of the
diving bell.

WORLD BREAKDOWN
DANGER IS SEEN
British Economist Says u. S.
Methods Have Averted
Crash for Time Being.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, February 12.-The danger
of a world economic breakdown has not
been averted, but merely postponed, by
the measures which the American and
British governments have. taken, Sir
George Paish noted British economist,
told the Associated Press yesterday, an1
unless further action is taken the British
tariff policy will make that breakdown
all the more inevitable.
The measures to which he referred
were creation of the American Recon-
struction Finance Corporation and the
government proposal for general 10
per cent tariff in Great Britain. Sir
George recommended in an interview
last December an economic conference,
revision of reparationS and temporary
bank guaranty acts in all countries.
U. S. Income Shrinking.
'"The present position" he said today,
sis that trade and income of the Amer
lean people are shrinking in a most
extraordinary manner, values OF all
kinds of property are declining and as
a result security for loans has declined
If Mr.. Hoover were to take such
comprehensive measures that the
American trade end income would
again expand then the securities of
the bankers would appre ciate and the
anxiety of depositors would be removed.
The purpose OF the new Finance
Corporation is to check the decline of
values if possible, but the task would
seem to be beyond its strength.
TT is all to the good, however, that
the step taken by the American Gov
eminent sholld give more time for ap-
plication of fundamental remedies"
The British governments action Sir
George does not view even in so hope
ful light
Introduction of tariffs in Great
among business men, who for some
reason are easily deluded by the po-
litical theory that a tariff will improve
the situation.
"All this delusive hope IS delaying
the dynamic action Of economic forces.
Further continuation of the standstill
agreements with regard to German
commercial debts has created hope
that the difficulty Germany is expert
encing will be overcome before Ger
many's bankruptcy becomes inevitable.
Breakdown Merely Postponed.
But if it is borne in mind that
neither the action of Mr. Hoover nor
that of the British government is a
fundamental remedy it will be realized
that the danger of complete world
breakdown has not been averted, but
merely postponedS
The situation is grave enough in
consequence of the extreme tariff policy
of the United States. Now that Great
Britain is taking similar action, the
situation is grave beyond measure.
If world conference of statesmen
to face this disastrous position was
called for by the situation up to now,
the present situation demands imme-
diate action"
