ance of the basic economic errors that underlie so much of the pres ent worldwide depression.
 "The world will not long be lulled by a spacious fallacy achieving temporary and probably artificial stability in foreign ex- changes on the part of a few large countries only.
 "A sound internal economic sys- tenn of q nation Is a greater factor in its well-being than the price of it's currency in the changing terms of the currencies of other nations
 Ut Is for this reason that a re- ducod cost of government, ase- uuate government income, and the ability to service government debts are all so important to ultimate stability.
 "So, too, the old fetishes of so- called international bankers are being replaced by efforts to plan national currencies with the ob- jective of giving those currencies q continuing purchasing power which does not greatly vary in terms of commodities and the needs of modern civilization.
 Let mo be frank in saying that the United States seeks tho kind of dollar which, Q generation hence will have the same purchasing and debt-paying power as the dollar we hope to attain in the near fu- ture.
 "That objective means more to the good of other nations than q fixed ratio for month or two in terms of the pound or franc.
 "Our broad purpose is the per- manent stabilization of every na- tion's currency. Gold or silver can well continue to be the mettaliC reserve behind currencies, but this Is not the time to dissipate gold re- serves. When tho world works out concerted policies in majority of nations, to produce balanced budg- cts and living within their means, then we can properly discuss bet ter distribution of tho worlds gold and silver supply to act as re- serve basc for the national cur rencies.
 Restoration of world trade is an important partner, both in the means and the result. Here, also, temporary exchange fixing is not the true answer. We must rather mitigate existing embargoes to make easier the exchange of pro- ducts which ono nation has and another nation has not.
 "The conference was called for better-perhaps to cure-funda- mental economic ills. It must not be diverted from that effort"

MAY NOT BE BAD

Havana. July 3.--(UP)--A vio, lent hurricane which struck the western coast of, Cuba early today passed out northwestward into the Gulf of Mexico after doing consid- erable damage on the island.
 The destruction, however, was not as great as first feared, 1t was indicated, when communication with the stricken province or Pinar Del Rio was restored,
 Father Gutierrez Lanza Of Beien College Observatory, believed the storm did not approach in violence the disastrous one of last Novem- Der of Santa Cruz Del Sur, on the south coast. He said the danger to Cuba had ended and did not think the storm was headed for Florida. unless it curved from it's present path.

BORN IN THIS STATE

oOIkN IN LIl40 PlAlH
 Boston, July S.-(UP)--Russell cut schoolboy, in the days when an he took his first interest in avia- tion.
 His death as Indianapolis today at the age of 35 ended 6 career of daredeviltry which included car- nival motorcycle speedster, para chute jumper, wing-walker, trans- atlantic flyer, and airplane racer. Tn between these pursuits he was successively an aviation schoolmas- ter in Massachusetts. a silver miner in Nevada, and & dude rancher in Arizona. He claimed to be the first man to set a plane down in Death Valley.
 Boardman was born at Westfield, Conn. January 22, 1898, son of the late Mir and Mrs Charles W. Board man. He attended school there and later the Hartford (Conn.) high school. While yet in high school Boardman became interested in the stunting side of aviation, but 1t was not until 1922 that he became a serious student of aeronautics. In that year at Bosten airport Lieutenant Mark Hoag. then a prominent Massachusetts aviator, taught Boardman to fly. After Boardman had become proficient he and Hoag entered partner ship, bought 22 government planes, and established a flying school near Weston, Mass.
 Then began the trail of i'll luck which was to dog Boardman's fly ing career and eventually to cause his death.
 On the day the school was open- ed Lieutenant Hoag and passen- ger were killed as the initial flight ended in a crash.
 In the summer of 1928 Board man barely escaped death when his plane nose-dived in Arizona. In September, 1880, Boardman planned nonstop solo flight from Boston to Dublin, Ireland, under sponsorship of the American Legion. The day before his sched- uled start, however, his $25.000 plane was ruined by fire at Boston airport and the project was cam celled.
 A year later. accompanied by John Polando of Lynn, Mass, HSW DOu~StOp 4N0W York to Istanbul, Turkey, to estab- fish a new world distance flight record of 5,039 miles. This was generally regarded as one of the outstanding feats in aviation an- nals.
 Last August 16 Boardman again was near death when, preparing to participate in the National Air Races. he crashed from 2,000 feet at Springfield (Mass.) airport. The plane involved was the junior Gee Bee sportster in which his friend, the late Lowell Bayles of Spring field, had set several cross-country records before being killed in the National Air Races at Cleveland, O., in 1881.
 Only last March 8 Boardman was involved in another accident at Springfield airport but was not seriously hurt.
 Besides his wife, the former Ruth Kenrick of Winthrop, Mass, whom he married in 1924, Board man leaves daughter, Jane. 4: a brother, Earl Griswold Boardman of Mattapoisett. sportsman and aviation enthusiast: and three sis ters, Miss Alice Boardman of Mat tapoisett. Mrs Gordon J. McCurdy of Providence, R. l., and Mrs Stuart Grummon of Washington.

 Designed as reply to President Roosevelt's monetary message, the resentatives of the six gold govern headquarters of the Italian delega- ton. to which Finance Minister Guido Jung hurried by airplane from Londonderry.
 The text of the statement fol- lows:
 "The undersigned governments, convinced that maintenance of their currencies is essential for the economic and financial restoration of the world, for the resumption of credit activities and as a safe- guard of the social progress ac- compllshed by them, confirm that 1t is their firm intention to main- tain free functioning of the gold standard in their respective coun- tries on present gold parties and within the framework of their eX- isting monetary laws.
 They ask their central banks to remain in close cooperation to give maximum efficiency to this dec- laration. The present declaration has been signed by representatives of the governments of Belgium, France. France. Holland, italy, Poland and Switzerland
 What Baruch Thinks
 New York, July 3.-CUP)- Bernard M. Baruch, chief adviser to the Roosevelt administration without portfolio" to-day dls- closed his views on current prob- lems in an interview with the World Telegram.
 Declining to be quoted directly. Baruch indicated that:
 He sees 1t as 8 duty of the gov- ernment to curtail the power of industrial barons to damage the working public.
 He opposes premature stabillza- ton of the dollar and admires President Roosevelts' refusal to accede to the pressure of the Lon don gold bloc.
 He stands for economic nation alism" holding that 1t Is the gov ernment's first duty to provide for its own citizens before committing itself to uncertain devices for inter- national recovery.
 He considers foreign trade more or less of a luxury.
 He holds that the underlying economic problem affects distribu- ton, not production.
 He believes an attempt at whole sale redistribution of wealth would merely reduce everybody to an in- effective economic level and stifle the encentive that produces lead CTS.
 He is for planned economy with reservations, allowing play for in- itiative and he believes the indus trial recovery act should be admin istered along the paths of direction rather than control.

(COnt1nued rom taBo l.J man had just taken off with a heavy load of gasoline on the sec ond leg of the New York to Los Angeles flight.
 He had gained speed of about 100 miles an hour when the ship suddenly nosed into the ground. Boardman was pulled from the cockpit unconscious. He did not regain consciousness before death.
 Air experts believed Boardman's little ship, carrying heavy load, struck a cross-current. The ship was badly damaged in the crash.
 Boardman set his long distance flying record in a hop from New York to Istanbul, Turkey.
 Boardman entered the aviation galaxy of fame overnight by. this flight, one of the most remarkable and dramatic fligts on record.
 Their plane, the "Cape Cod" was unsighted over Europe but em- ployes of Lebourget field, Paris, found a packet of New York news papers on the field addressed to the mayor of Paris. It had been drop ped from the plane.

LIMERICK Staying
HOAXER HELD SANE
Matin to Be Released From
Gallinger When Members
of Family Call.

Isadore Matin. 22-year-old Philadel-
phia golf instructor, who twice con-
fessed to Beulah Limerick's Staying, only
to retract both admissions, has been
pronounced sane by Gallinger Hospital
psychiatrists and will be released from
the psycopathic ward as soon as mem
ters of his family call for him, Detec-
tive Sergt. George E. Darnell, chief of
the homicide squad, announced last
night.
Matin first confessed the murder
shortly after it was committed. in De-
cember, 1880, but subsequently ad-
mitted his statement was merely pub
licity hoax.
About two weeks ago. Matin sur
rendered to Philadelphia police, repeat
ing his confession of the crime. He
was returned to Washington, and after
failing. to re-enact the Staying, broke
down under questioning and admitted
the second confession also was a hoax
His motive in making the second con-
fession he explained, was to embarrass
his stepfather.
DR.. I. Silverman, Gallinger alienist
reported to Darnell that Matin was
sane, but was subject to delusions
Under the District law, Darnell ex-
planned, Matin could not be held here
unless he was found to be unSOund
mentally but police officials do not wish
to release him unless assured that he
will return to Philadelphia. For this
reason, he will be kept at Gallingel
until some member of his family calls
tor him.
