"The Canadian project of
twO-Stage development in the
international section has been
adopted instead of the original
American project of a single
stage development.
THE cost is slightly more,
but the Canadian officials have
felt that the twO-Stage develop
ment is desirable for many rea-
sons, among others, for the
complete assurance of the
safety of the City of Montreal.
THE project is of first inn
pOrtance to the whole CONT

lens have been worked out by

countries in a spirit of coOpera-

Valentino
In Death

WOOD, July 18
QN.S0.-The i'll fate which
cut Rudolph Valentino off at
the height Of his fame still
pursues the screen star in
death.
His body, it was learned to-
day, faces the possibility Of
eviction from the temporary
crypt in a Hollywood cemetery
where it has lain since his
death six years ago.
Following Valentines death,
plans were launched to build a
memorial mausoleum by the
side of a lake in the same
cemetery as q final resting
place.
Meanwhile June Mathis, seem
artist, made available a vault
she owned as a temporary rest
ing place for the body. Miss
Mathis later died and her body
occupies one of the six vaults
she owned. Relatives occupy
three others and now word has
come of the desire of her hus-
band, Sylvano Balboni, now in
Italy, to dispose of the two
vaults not occupied by Miss

U S. Faces 'InvitatiOn,' Says
Sir Walter Layton in
Address Over Radio

LONDON, July 1S N.N.S.).
England's campaign for can
collation. of Europe s war debts
to the United States is on.
This was the construction
generally placed today on the
radio address last night by Sir
Walter Thomas Layton, chair
man of the commission which
investigated Germ any's re-
sources and a member of the
Balfour commission which ne
gotiated the war loans to Great
Britain.
Sir Walter is not a member of
the government, but he stands so
high in government circles that
his speech was taken as the
opening gun in a campaign
which the Macdonald ministry
will take no steps to counteract.
Agent Of League
Additional weight was lent to
Layton's address by the fact that
he is a member of the consula.
tive economic committee of the
League of Nations and is also
director of the economic and
financial section of the league.
After declaring that the i'm.
portant problem is to start trade
again and bring about recovery
in prices, the speaker said:
I'VE on this side Of the At
lantic do not see how this can
be done If the machinery of
international paym entS Is
thrown out of gear by large
political payments which have
no relation to present-day eco
nOmic activity.
NO FEAR OF REICH PAY
''It is on these grounds that
the countries of Europe will
invite the people of the United
States to reconsider the Situa-
tiOn.
There is no fear of German
payments ever again becoming
a menace to world trade and
credit. To do the same with
war debts will repay all cOun-
tries concerned a hundredfOld."

Gov. Doyle f. Carlton to order
all Florida prison camps aban'
doned was launched here to-
-day by the congregation of the
Calvary Baptist Church after
hearing AL F. German charge
that Arthur MaiIlefert, youth
full New Jersey prisoner, was
slain by camp guards.
German headed the grand jury
which indicted two guards for the
"torture death" of Maillefert.
He told the congregation. which
: Is the largest in Florida, that the
Maillefert case was not an iSo
lated one. He declared there was
boy prisoner at the Raiford
prison farm, near here, who had
been shot iii the back by guard
He said another prisoner died
three weeks ago at the farm, his
face covered with scars, his death
!. being attributed to heart disease
~ Criticizes Governor
The congregation was sc
aroused by Germans talk that II
adopted a resolution demanding
that Governor Carlton investigate
the prison system.
-. The Rev. DR.. Allen C. Shuler
pastor of the church, criticized
Governor Cartons lack of &C
ton" in the prison scandals. de

guards on $1,000 bail, and ap
pealed to his congregation to nelp
"wipe out the prison camps" He

H. German told the congregation
he had received five death and
kidnapping threat letters. He de-
clared though he would continue
the grand jury investigation OF
prison conditions.
Boy Shot in Back
Z Touching on further prison
scandals, German said:
+ "There's a boy, lying out at
the RaifOrd prison farm in a
plaster cast, who told me he was
shot in the back by guard
while lying on the ground. He
was wounded four times before
the guard came up and shot
him in the back. There's q
case which ought to be inveSti-
: gated.
There was another prisoner,
who died at that farm three
S weeks ago. He had ScareS all
over his face, which were never
. explained, but they said he died
: of heart disease"
German said he would see that
both cases were investigated,
though they we're not within the
jurisdiction of his grand jury.

THIRD-DEGREE

Prisoner Who Died as Police

Fractured Larynx

MINEOLA, N. Y, July 1S
G.N.S. S.).-Formal inquiry was
instituted today into the mys-
terious "third degree" death
of Hyman Stark, who died
Friday night after he was
subjected to eight hours of
questioning by Nassau county
police.
DR.. otto Schultze, who per-
formed the autopsy, took the wit
ness stand and testified that the
prisoner died of a fractured lar
ynx. The larynx was broken by
a blow, in his opinion. He was
asked:
Gould the wound have been
caused by someone holding his
head back and pressing with q
thumb?"
"Yes, it could"
He added that the body of
Stark was marked by many lacera.
tionS and described each injury In
detail.
Accused of Beating
Stark and three other men
were arrested Friday after Mrs.
Valera Hizenski. mother of Jo-
seph -Hizenski, of the Nassau
county police, had been beaten
and robbed in their home in
Roslyn. For eight hours Stark
was questioned by a succession Of
detectives. At the end of that
time he was rushed to hospital.
He died 20 minutes later.
Assistant District Attorney
Martin w. Littleton, jr.., who hau
personal charge of the investiga-
ton after the death Of Stark,
was the first witness.
Had Been Hit
Littleton related events that fol-
lowed the arrest of Stark. He said
he got the impression" that the
police had found blood on the
hands of one of the four prison
ers arrested after the beating and
robbing of the aged mother of the
detective. Littleton revealed that
while he questioned three of the
prisoners, he did not interrogate
Stark. He did not think it neceS-
Sary to question Stark, he said,
as he had a clear enough idea of
what had happened from the
other three men.

Hoover Sees Greatest improvement" In
u. S.-Canadian Waterway Pact

Simultaneous with the signing
of the st. Lawrence Waterway
Treaty, President Hoover today
issued an interpretative state
ment in which he characterized
the treaty as "ano6heT forward
step in the greatest internal i'm
provement yet undertaken on the
North American Continent"
The President remarked that.
although the treaty has been
signed by representatives of both
countries, it cannot become eff
fective unless, and until it is
ratified by the legislative bodies
of both countries.
No Mention of Probe
Mr.. Hoover made no mention
of the legislative investigation of
the treaty negotiations launched
by the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee just before Congress
adjourned. The committee will
conduct its investigation during
the summer anG fall.
In his statement, the President
said:
"The signing of the Great
LakeS-St. Lawrence waterway
treaty marks another step for
ward in this, the greatest in
ternal imprOvem mt yet under
taken on the North American
continent. The treaty must vet
be ratified by the legislative
bodies of the two governments
and is not effective unless this
is done.
"The treaty represents to me
the redemption of a promise
which l made to the people in
the Midwest. 1t provides for
the construction of a 27-fOOt
waterway from the sea to all
Canadian and American points
on the Great Lakes.
Such a depth will admit
practically 80 per cent of the
ocean shipping of the world to
our lake cities in the States of
New York, Ohio, Michigan,
Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin and
Minnesota.
10-Year Job
Its influence in cheapening
transportation of overseas goods
will stretch widely into the
interior from these points.
Its completion will have a
profoundly favorable effect upon
the development of agriculture
and industry throughout the
Midwest.
The large by-product of
power will benefit the North
east.
These benefits are mutual
with the great Dominion to
the North
The waterway will probably
require ten years for compile
ton, during which time normal
growth of traffic in the nation
will far more than compensate
for any diversions from Amer
ican railways and other Amer
lean port facilities. The eco
nOmic gains from improved
transportation have always bene-
fitted the whole people.
"Und"r the engineers eSti-
mate, the total cost will be
approximately S543.OOO, 900, of
which approximately S272,OOO,
900 will need be expended by
the United States.

Voice of His Soul
Universal applause, without dis.

worthy tribute to the admirable
picture presented by the life of
George Washington. The voice Of
his soul told him that only noble
purposes and good deeds inspire
and nouriSh unselfiShness. His
mental powers gave him from his
earliest years, a clear comprehen-

the part reserved for each one of
us is but small and fleeting, for
from birth we live with others
and for others.
