LINK BOAT TO
MISSING PLANE
Mystery Craft Followed
Army'S Super Ship
Out to Sea.

LOS ANGELES, Sept. IA mys-
FERROUS speedboat seen off Point
Vicente was linked today with the
disappearance of a 100000 super
pursuit plane built for the United
States Army by a report on Sc
cret police investigation.
The powerful boat was seen fol-
lowing the flight of a high-speed
plane the afternoon of July 80,
when the Army fighter vanished
with Lieut.. Arthur Skaer at its
controls, it was said.
Lieut.. Skaer was testing the rad
ically designed ship for the North
rop Airplane Co. 1t was said to
be the fastest land plane ever built,
capable of cruising at 325 miles an
hour. Strictest secrecy surrounded
the planes design.
Fred l.. Miller, government con-
troll officer at Palos VerdeS Hills,
over which the mystery plane last
was seen, was at the Point Vicente
lighthouse the afternoon the plane
disappeared. Miller said he saw
the speedboat idling in the Santa
Catalina Channel. Then a remark
ably fast plane roared out over the
sea. flying at 500 or 1000 feet.
At once the speed boat changed
its course. The plane swept toward
Catalina Island with the boat boil
ing after 1t. The ship then banked
and swung back toward shore.
Again the speed boat veered to fol-
low its flight. A few minutes later
both disappeared from sight.
Despite a wide search and a re-
ward offered for recovery of the
plane or its wreckage no trace of
ship or pilot ever has been found.

Pope Pleads for Peace
Copyright. 1895. by United Press,

VATICAN CITY, Sept. Pope
Plus XII in an earnest plea for
peace today in a speech to 5000 Ro-
man Catholic war veterans from
IS countries assembled in st. Paul's
basilica.
In his plea the Pope drew a care
full analogy between wars of de-
Tense and wars of conquest, and he
said also that either sort of war
could be approved if it was in de-
tense of Christian rights and treas
ures.
But he was believed to be refer
ring directly to Fascist Italy when,
speaking soberly in French from his
elevated dais in the basilica, he
said:
I'VE desire that the aspirations,
needs and exigencies of our dear
peoples should be satisfied, but with
justice and peace"
Asks World Wide Effort
The pontiff's speech was a plea
for a united, worldwide effort for
peace.
The entire world desires peace"
he said. I'VE are praying for
peace -
Here the Pope made his reference
to Italy, and he continued:
Sins make people miserable.
Peace is a preliminary condition to
all prosperity and well being"
Pope Plus praised the splendor Of
the faith of the men whom he adj
dressed, and recalled their sacrifices
in the World War. There we're men
in the basilica from both the World
War sides.
Former Enemies Together
After making at that point his
analogy on war, the Pope appealed
to the veterans direct:
Fight now for the honor of God
+. children, fight the glorious
daily battle of Christian life :.
fight as good soldiers of Christ"
The men to whom the Pope spoke
are assembled, with their chaplains,
on a pilgrimage. principally religious
in character, which is also an effort
to bring former enemies together
and make them forget the past
through the universally of spirit Of
the church.

NAz|S TO ASK
Overriding OF
COURT RULING
New York Judges Dismissal
of Bremen Rioters to
Be Protested.
By United Press

By United Press
BERLIN, Sept. 7.-Germany will
make a diplomatic protest to the
United States against the action of
Magistrate Louis B. BrodSky Of New
York in dismissing charges against
men arraigned before him for par
ticipation in a riot in which the
SwaStika flag was torn from the
liner Bremen, it was learned today.
The protest will be directed both
to Washington and New York, it
was said, and will be directed espe-
cially against the magistrates mo-
tives in dismissing charges against
the five men. Judge Brodsky COM
pared the swastika flag, Nazi's
banner, to the BLACK flag of piracy"
Afternoon newspapers in Berlin
Indignantly attacked the New York
court action which grew out of ar
rests made at the time of anti-Nazi
demonstrations on July &c as the
German liner was preparing to sail
from the United States.
Nazis Expect U. S. Action
THE motivation (for the verdict
is a monstrosity which happily is
rare in the jurisprudence Of civil
lized countries" the Berlin Tage-
blatt asserted. "It is a new Insult
to the German flag"
The paper said that it expected
the United States government to
take necessary steps to annul Judge
BrodskyS decision.
The original incident caused a
prompt German diplomatic protest
which was met with regrets by
Washington, but a statement that
the matter properly was under the
jurisdiction Of municipal and state
officials.
1T may we'll be-" Judge Brodsky
said, that the flying of this emblem
from the masthead of the Bremen,
that the flying of this emblem in
New York harbor, was regarded by
these defendants and others of our
citizenry as a gratuitouSly brazen
Haunting of an emblem which SYM
bOlizeS all that is antlthetlcaI TO
American ideals.
BLACK Flag of Piracy"
''Nor am I unmindful of the fact
that to these defendants the prom
inent display of this emblem even
carried with it the same sinister
implications as pirate ship, sail
ing defiantly into the harbor of a
nation, one of the whose ships it had
Just scuttled, with the black flag
of piracy proudly flying aloft.
I'm a large sense, indeed, it might
seem as though whatever disturb
ances attended the sailing of the
Bremen were provoked by this
Haunting of an emblem to those
who regarded it as a defiant chal-
lenge to society"

GENEVA, Sept. 7. = A
League Council subcommittee
today sent letters to Italy
and Ethiopia asking them to
refrain from hostile action
while peace efforts were being
made.
The appeal was sent by the new
committee of five nations which
represents the last League of Ma
tions hope of averting war
Salvador de Madariaga, Spanish
chairman of the committee, ex-
planned:
I'VE are going to ask Italy and
Ethiopia not to make so much noise
that we can not hear ourselves. The
letter, signed by me, will ask both
governments to do nothing to COM
plicate our task"
But actually the appeal is direct
to Benito Mussolini, defying the
League and the world to stop him
in his ambition to conquer Ethiopia.
1t is on Mussolini alone that the
success of the plea hinges. The
Ethiopian rains, according to latest
predictions, may not end until early
October, but League leaders fear
each day to hear of some overt act
that would make war certain.
The committee is working on a
plan to make new offer to Italy
of economic and commercial con-
ceSsions in Ethiopia, perhaps linked
up with an international occupation
force in which Italy's army would
be predominant.
