DEVONPORT, England, November 8.
BY courtesy of the admiralty, I have
been privileged to inspect what probably
is the last remaining hush hush ship
in the British navy.
Although H. M. S. Adventure was
launched some years ago, she always
has been something Of a mystery ship.
In the first place, she is the only cruz
ser-minelayer Britain ever built, and,
secondly, she was the first Diesel-elec.
trio warship to go afloat.
H. M. S. Adventure is a ship of some
1900 tons, with length of $40 feet
and beam of 60 feet. High speed and
a wide radius of action being essential
in vessel of this type-and the two
desiderata being difficult to reconcile
with Norman machinery-the Adven-
ture was given dual motive power.
For fast steaming she has steam tur-
bines, which propel her at % knots. But
when cruising at moderate speeds she
switches over to Diesel-electric drive. On
this she can angle along at IA knots
equivalent to about 370 miles a day.
Viewed from the shore, the Adventure
appears to be an ordinary cruiser, save.
perhaps, for the Diesel exhaust pipe
abaft the second funnel. It Is only when
one descends below deck that her secret
stands revealed
Imagine section of a subway, so COM
plete with a double set Of rails, well
over 100 yards long. and lacking only
the platforms, advertisements and esca-
lators, and you have a fairly accurate
picture of the Adventures mine deck.
This unique railway" is served by
about 80 officers and men, and its roll
ing stock consists of hundreds of the
most powerful submarine mines in eX-
istence. Each of these is unit, con-
sisting Of the mine itself and its mas
sive base or anchor, the latter having
wheels which fit laterally into the
f1anges Of the rails.
When the order Is given to lay mines
the sinister train" is set in motion.
Its speed can be regulated and as each

agreement proposed for this area by

WORLD PEACE FATE
RESTING UPON NAz|
.
British View Future Policy as
! Determining Factor in
o..
Crisis.
Nv the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
LONDON, October 1.-THE future
policy of Germany's Nazi government
according to the authoritative British
view as reflected today. likely Will be
the determining factor whether the
present European crisis will develop INTO
q menace to world peace.
If Chancellor Hitler can curb the Nazi
hot-heads, these circles believe, the con-
tinental nations probably will be able
to 60 along without more serious
trouble than an occasional frontier
fiareup.
If the German policy does not formu-
late along the conciliatory lines adopt
ed by the German ENJOYS abroad, the
British fears are that serious results
may occur.
German Isolation Causes.
The Nazi policy toward Austria. the
treatment of the Jews and the present
crisis in the arms parley at Geneva are
cited by the British observers as con-
txibuting to Germany's present virtual
isolation in Europe. Since the Nazi for
eign policy became evident, a great

through Europe among the nations for
merly antagonistic.
The Franco-1talian understanding
has reached such a sound state OF de-
velopment the British view is that even
q change of NaN craftsmanship would
not undermine it.
In the Balkans, even a more marked
spirit of friendship exists. One high
placed authority here described the
Balkan political atmosphere as friend
ly as a cocktail party" The present
visit of King Alexander and Queen Ma
rie of Yugoslavia to formerly unfriendly
lands is typical of this new Balkan
spirit indirectly resulting from the con-
ditions in Central Europe.
Much the same condition exists In
Eastern Europe. Authoritative opinion
in London is that the NaZi statesman
ship has driven France and her allied
nations to forget their troubles with
Russia. This is indicated by the friend
ly character OF the recent missions to
Moscow.
Far East Ascendance. {.
Only in the Far East is there COM
plete ascendance of military Fascism
as in Germany.
Skirting this Welter Of continental
politics Great Britain steers cautious
course. Secure in feeling that this ma
tional government Is solidly built upon
the confidence of the British public, the
British leaders are hopeful Of contribut-
ing to a peaceful solution Of the new
continental crisis.
Near Europe, but not of Europe, Great
Britain keeps one weather eye on the
continent. knowing that if trouble oc-
ours there she can hardly hope to escape
any more than she did in 1914. Her
other eye always is toward the do
minions, with whom she continues to
consolidate their common interests.

TALLASSEE. Ala, October 12.-De-
tails Of an incident which resulted in
an order from Secretary Perkins that
Department of Labor agents must not
interfere in any way with Newspaper
editors have been related by an Ala.
bama newspaper editor who claimed
that right to express his personal
opinion" in the columns OF his paper.
The Secretarys action followed pro-
test by Dick Thompson, editor OF the
Tallassee Tribune, against what he said
was an order from labor commissioner
to "desist" from writing articles In con-
nection with the formation OF unions
in q local textile mill.
Thompson recalled yesterday that ne
opposed the organization Of the unions
editorially last August. Shortly after
the appearance Of the editorial, he saio,
Eugene H. Dunnegan, commissioner OF
labor, advised him he was violating Sec
ton I Of the national recovery act:
The editor said Dunnegan told him
that "if didn't stop was going to
get into trouble-I must desist from
expressing my opinions again"
I'VE discussed free press and Tree
speech and several other topics, but
we couldn't get together and ne left
after again warning me to stop,
Thompson said.
In editorial on September IA Thomp-
son declared he was within his consti-
tut!onal right adding "the editor OF
this paper will express his views and
opinion through this paper as long as
the Constitution of the United States
grants a free press and a free speech.
when the Constitution no longer
grants a free press and free speech.
then, and only then, will this editor
stop expressing his viewpoint and per-
sonal opinions through this paper.

any threats against Thompson. but said

BILLINGS SEEKING
PAROLE FROM PRISON
Gives Up Efforts to Get Pardon
and Is Wished Well
by Mooney.

BY the Associated Press.
FOLSOM PRISON, Calf, october r.
Grown sort of tired of the place.
after nearly II years in Folsom prison,
Warren 4. Billings has abandoned ef-
forts to obtain a pardon and is seeking
a parole from his life sentence for the
1915 San Francisco preparedness day
bombing.
Referring to Tom Mooney, serving a
life sentence in San Quentin prison for
the bombing, Billings said: He'll prob
ably want to blast me when he hears I
have applied for a parole"
But Mooney, who has consistently
declared, he should either be pardoned
or hanged" offered no criticism
He has my best Wishes" Mooney
said.
Billings said he had come to the con-
clusion the long struggle for exoner-
alton was futile, adding he did not
agree with MONEYS contention that
acceptance of parole was an admis-
sion of guilt.
Billings, whose application will be
considered by the State Board of Prison
Terms and Paroles in December, said
he had been offered a clerical position
outside of California. The 40-year- old
prisoner said he had no desire to take
part in any labor movement.
Asked if he planned to marry Mrs
Madeline Wieland of San Francisco if
freed, Billings said, ASK her."
