Cause of Explosion at
La Libertad Is Sought by
Authorities.

By United Press
SAN SALVADOR, March Is
officials sought vainly today the
cause Of an explosion so terrific that
it killed 100 persons and was heard
clearly for more than twenty-five
miles.
One hundred and fifty cases OF
dynamite, unloaded from steam
ship, were being placed aboard a
two-car freight train at La Liber-
tad, twenty-five miles from here,
when they were detonated.
The warehouse at the docks, con-
tanning $4,000 bags of coffee, drums
of oil and gasoline and 1000 cases
of assorted inf1ammables was blown
to bits, as were all workmen in the
vicinity. Barges were blown up or
out to sea.
Adjoining buildings caught fire,
and before the blaze was put out
four blocks of the port and resort
town of $1,000 inhabitants were
burned. Buildings RACED included
the customs office, postoff1ce, tele-
graph Office, the steamship Office
and the principal hotel.
President Hernandez Martinez
left for La Libertad at once. He
ordered out fire engines, Red and
White Cross nurses and public
health nurses and physicians. Forty
persons, seriously burned, were res
cued from the explosion zone and
brought to hospitals here.
But for the time Of the explo-
sion many more persons would
have been killed. The many spring
visitors were at the beaches for the
afternoon.

u. s. To BATTLE
JAPAN'S NAVAL
PARITY PLAN
By KINGSBURY SMITH
International News Service

A plan of strategy designed to
show Japan the folly of arbitrarily
renouncing existing treaties and
embarking on any lone-wolf ma.
val policy has been worked out by
Secretary Of State Hull and Am.
bassador Norman H. Davis, Amer.
ica's disarmament expert.
The plan has been approved by
President Roosevelt and will form
the basis Of the first counter.
attack to be launched by the
American delegation at London
against any threats by Japan to
discard existing treaties and seek
outright naval parity.
To Cite Futility
Ambassador Davis will endeavor
to show the Japanese delegates
the futility of precipitating a sit.
uation in which naval limitation
treaties might be discarded.
He will point out that no mat
ter what freedom Of action Japan
may possess to build any kind Of
fleet 1t desires, it will be of little
value unless it has relative
strength.
Without an understanding on
this relative strength, Davis will
cite the danger Of an unrestricted
naval building race in which it
would be almost financially impos-
sible for Japan to keep up with
the United States and Britain.
Pacific Is Factor
Davis also will be ready to call
attention to the fact that renun.
citation Of the existing treaties by
Japan would leave the United
States and Britain free to con-
Struct new naval bases and forti-
ficationS in the Pacific.
Convinced there is little hope Of
achieving any real disarmament in
the near future, not only because
Of Japan, but Great Britain as
well, which considers it's defenses
dangerously low" the American
delegation will concentrate on
seeking limitation.

These payments are exclusive Of

the Government will have paid
