By STEWART BROWN
United Press Staff CORRESPONDENT

United PresS Staff Correspondent
GENEVA, May 20. - The United
States went squarely on record for
peace at the world arms conference
today by offering to reduce its
navy, and to join an international
agreement for control of the traf-
fic in arms. America also declared
its willingness to consult with 9TH
er nations in event of trouble.
The action marked a climax in
the long and losing struggle for
disarmament at Geneva.
Norman H. Davis, special repre-
sentative of President Roosevelt,
in opening debate at the long
postponed full meeting of the con-
ference, made a strong bid to pre-
vent its threatened collapse. He
said:
1.-The people of the United States
are aroused by the evils which are
being revealed in the production
of and traffic in munitions. The
American government is ready to
join in measures for suppressing
this evil and is prepared to negoti-
ate in connection with disarma-
ment treaty dealing drastically
with this problem
Reaffirm;ng President Roose-
velt's offer to consult with other
! powers if war threatens, Davis add
ed:
"We are willing to go further
and work out by international
agreement an effective system for
the regulation of the manufacture
of and traffic in arms and NUM-
tionS. -
Davis foreshadoWed Germany
possible return to the conference,
from which she walked out in dis
gust last year. He expressed hope
that Germany soon would resume
negotiations with other powers.
Davis made frank offer by the
United States to reduce its naval
tonnage now to forestall a naval
race before the 1888 naval confer
ence.
I'VE are willing to join other
interested powers in substantial.
proportionate reduction of naval
TONNAGE he declared.
The offer aroused intense interest
in view of the current preliminary
negotiations about to be held in
London, involving Japan, the Unit
ed States, Great Britain and
France.

ADMIRAL. TOGO
NEARS DEATH
TOXIC, May 30. (U.P)--Ad-
mirai Heihachiro Togo, 8S,
mot beloved and greatest of
Japan's modern heroes, died
late today.

TOKYO, May 20. U.P)-Admiral
Heihachiro Togo, JapanS greatest
naval hero, sank into a coma today
on his death bed in his little home
near the imperial palace.
Physicians believed the 88-year-
old sea fighter, on whom the royal
family lavished last-minute honors,
will not rally from the coma.
Emperor Hirohito elevated the
sea fighter from the rank of count
to that of a marquis.
The aged commander of Japan's
fleets which crushed the Russian
armada in the Russo-JapaneSe war,
rallied briefly to acknowledge the
honor conferred on him by his be-
loved ruler. Togo directed that the
ceremonial robes of a marquis be
placed on his bed as an acknow-
Judgement of his appreciation.
Togo is given practically no
chance to survive throat cancer

He went back to the attack

DOCTOR SAYS
ROLPH DEATH
NOT FAR OFF

SAN JOSE, Calf, May 20. U.P)-
With the crisis approaching in the
illness of Governor James Rolph, Jr.,
DR.. Harold Fraser said today that
only the governors fast ebbing vi
tality kept him alive.
The physician admitted reluctant
ly that unless Governor Rolph
showed improvement within short
time, death probably will end his
colorful career.
DR.. Fraser said the staff of ply
sicians feared that fatal complica-
tionS may set in. He said Rolph was
weaker" today.
SAN JOSE, Calf, May 90. U.P) -
Political observers gave serious con-
Sideration today to the possibility
that illness may force Gov. James
Rolph' Jr.'s immediate resignation.
Physicians refrained from discus
sing directly with the 64year-old
executive the question of his resign
ing, but they said that his condl-
ton is such that he will have to
spend the remainder of his days
watching himself and being careful
of what he does.
Mild sedatives were given the gov
ernor to aid his rest. DR.. Michael
Danichich of the Agnew State hos
pital staff, went to the Linforth
ranch near here to remain with
Rolph until he RECEIVERS from his
present attack.

BEVERLY HILLS, May %.
(SpeciaD-Secretary of Agricul-
ture Wallace is out our way
here. He has got a tough job.
It's by far the toughest job in
the cabinet, secretary of the
army with the generals, post
master general with the politi-
clans, but when you deal with
the farmer you are dealing with
a man who is a dealer himself.
So if I was Wallace, I would
say, Boys, you all are just too
good farmers, you just raise too
much. If you just wouldn't be
so expert for a few years. 1t
don't do any good to plow under
every third row if you are going
to raise more on the other two
than you did on the three. Your
efficiency is driving you to the
poor house, so please don't be
such good farmers"
