To COOPERATE
WITH LEAGUE
u. S. VIII Act In Connection
With Work On Far East Prob
lem's Solution.
By JOSEPH II. BAIRD
United Press Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON. March "A. -
The Roosevelt administration today
accepted a bid from the League of
Nations to cooperate in its work on
the far eastern problem and laid
down the broad outlines of Amer
lean policy toward Geneva.
This policy, following the trail
plazed by former Secretary of State
Stimson, is one of cooperation and
observation without direct partici-
patton" in the leagues work.
In a note to Sir Eric Drummond,
secretary general of the league,
Secretary of State Hull said:
'As it is necessary that the Am
erican government exercise indie
pendence of judgment with regard
70 proposals which may be made
and for action which the advisory
committee may recommend, it
would seem that appointment Of a
representative to function as a
member of the committee would
not be feasible.
However. believing that partici-
patton by a representative of this
government in the deliberations of
the committee would be helpful ]
am instructing the American min
lister to Switzerland, Mr.. Hugh r
Wilson to be prepared so to parti-
cipatc. but without right to vote, if
such participation is desired"
The advisory committee, in which

whether this occurred in the army
or navy, but anyhow here's story
about one detachment that has
just now learned about the earth
quake.
Friday Afternoon an intra-service
baseball game was scheduled, and
leave was granted one detachment
70 accompany the team as roofing
section.
On the heels of the game came
the earthquake. The fleet was as
signed to administer the law in
Long Beach, the army in Compton
Service headquarters buzzed with
continuous activity.
Three days later the lost squad
ron-or platoon-appeared at G. II.
g.
Sir the spokesman addressed
the commanding officer with dig
nifty, "the roofing section hath re-
turned. Hic!"
Thereupon the lost squadron
heard that there had been one
earthquake-and experienced an
other.

FoUov Closing Of
Spadra Hospital

SACRAMENTO. March IA. UR)-
A bill to abolish the state narcotic
hospital at Spadra today was ap-
proved by the senate governmental
efficiency committee.
The measure, a part OF the ser
ate fact finding committees re-
organization program, was opposed
by representatives of the state de-
partment of institutions, who pro-
posed the institution be combined
with the nearby Pacifjc Colony
state hospital rather than being
discontinued. 'e'
It was indicated the facilities at
Spadra would be used TO care for
mentally deficient children in the
event the legislature approves dis
continuance of treatment Of mar
cotic addicts.

receiving rooms with the injured.
Many we're dead on arrival, others
had a fighting chance and were
given emergency treatment that in
countless cases saved their lives.
A staff of 100 doctors and a.
many nurses we're at work during
the peak of the rush. The sprink-
Ter system finaly was cut off and
volunteers diverted the water
through doors.
Emergency operations were per-
formed while four inches of water
still covered the floors.
Patients who we're in the hospital
before the quake were serious
problem. In their distraction, many
wanted to go home, forgetting that
they might not have homes and
that, in any event, they were safest
where doctors and nurses were a
lailable.

LONG BEACH, March ID. U.P)-
The splendid job done by the army
and navy in policing and guarding
Compton and Long Beach, respect
lively, produced only one kick.
On American avenue in Long
Beach there are, in a single block,
a jewelry store, a secondhand
store of the Junk" variety, and a
bank. The quake treated them all
the same. The fronts were gone
from each. A bluejacket patrolled
the block
Seated upon a box in front Of
the second hand store was a very
old man with very long beard.
He was finishing his twentieth
hour.
"You can't tell me- he snapped
in answer to a question, that that
there sailor can guard my store
when he keeps walkin' up and
Gown the whole block, and won't
set here in front like I told him

LONG BEACH, March IA. W.P)-
Stirring scenes at the Seaside hos
pital after Long Beach was struck
by its disastrous earthquake we're
described today by Mrs. Beth Horn
beak, superintendent.
A stiffness more nerve-shattering
than any pandemonium prevailed
among the terror stricken patients
rs, undaunted, doctors and nurses
stayed at their posts to care for the
injured and dying, Mrs. Hornbeak
said.
Tho three main wards, which
Joined one another, formed a
striking example of what happens
to buildings when the earth buc-
les. Ward No /, 25-year-old
frame structure, swayed and tossed
but held together with only minor
damage to plaster.
Ward No. 2, the newest, was of
reinforced concrete and like the
first it was virtually unharmed.
Ward No. 3, of stucco-covered
brick, lost all its walls, leaving pa
tents staring with frightened eyes
at the bedlam going or outside.
A delicate mastoid operation was
being performed on child patient
by DR.. Francis Hertzog when the
tsmblor began. Dr. Hertzog almost
had completed the surgery. Quick
ly he applied dressings to the in
cision and helped the nurses wheel
the patient down a dust-filled hall
way to safety.
In the obstetrical ward, DR.. Ster-
ling Pillsbury and Nurses Cora
Brown, Helen Wolzak and Mary
Bahrends we're experimenting the
birth of a baby girl. Lights were
extinguished with the first jolt, and
almost at the same time the hos
pitfalls automatic sprinkler system
broke, deluging every room with
water.
Like their colleagues in the surg
cry theatre, DR.. Pillsbury and the
nurses remained with the mother.
A policeman's electric torch pro-
vided light to usher into the world
another life.
Other scenes of heroism were en-
acted in every ward. Nurses of the
night staff reported Immediately
for duty, two of them rushing
from an apartment house that
crumbled just as they fled through
the door.
Ambulances were changing to the

NAz| ACTIONS
DRAW PROTEST

PARIS, March IA. U.P)-France
called the German governments
attention through diplomatic chan
nels today to the activities OF Nazi
storm troops in the demilitarized
Rhineland zone, particularly at
Kehl.
Officials emphasized that no for
NAL action had been taken, as it
was hoped Chancellor Adolf Hitler
would voluntarily suppress mani
festations by troops.
Although France has not called
the leagues attention to the alleged
;llegality of Hitler's suggestion that
the Nazi forces be absorbed into
the regular army, it was understood
the foreign office was preparing
documents to substantiate tn e
French position.
German refugees continued their
flight to the French frontier today.
MANY Jews arrived in Paris pen
niless and sought refuge at Jewish
almshouses.
Strasbourg reported the number
of refugees was diminishing be-
cause the Germans had frightened
their surveillance of frontier posts
to prevent escapes. Arrivals in
Strasbourg included several news
papermen who asked that their
names not be revealed, for fear Of
reprisals on their families, who re-
manned in Berlin.
Although the regular Hitler troops
evacuated Kehl, local Nazis re-
mained there and flew Man flags
on many buildings within the de-
militarized zone. 1t was said there
many of them were armed, defin-
itely violating article l26 Of the
Versailles treaty.

Cuba conferred for an hour and a
half today with Secretary Hull
and other State Department Off
cials about the situation in his
island republic and later said he
had come to report on his con-
ference yesterday with President
Roosevelt at Hyde Park.
Appearing somewhat excited,
the representative of the Ma
chado government also con-
ferred with Undersecretary Phil
ips and Assistant Secretary
Caffrey. Cintas told newspaper
men that only economic matters
had been discussed.
There was a rumor, however,
that the Ambassador had con-
veyed to the Secretary of State
the reaction of President Machado
to the plan for his retirement
submitted by Ambassador Sumner
Welles in Havana.
Undersecretary Phillips said later the
Ambassador did not bring any reply
from Machado to the appeal which
President Roosevelt made to him yes
terday for betterment on the Cuban
situation
Phillips added that the discussion
was largely economic, although the
political questions also were considered
The Ambassador himself said he had
no reports of the political situation
this morning from Havana and added
that his talk with President Roosevelt
yesterday had concerned economic
questions.
The Undersecretary expressed hope
that mediation will settle the Cuban
difficulties and said that conferences
were going on constantly in Havana
