HITLER, BRITAIN
AGREE ON NAVY

LONDON, June IL U.S).-A
complete Anglo-German front on
all naval questions, having a pro
found effect on the forthcoming
naval conference. was predicted to-
day in highest circles.
London is pleased over Chancel-
lor Hitler's concessions to Britain
in agreeing to limit his demand
for IS per cent of Britain's ton
mage within that percentage in all
categories, thus avoiding compe-
tition with Britain in any special
types of ships, especially capital
ships, aircraft carriers and sub.
marines.
Britain is now convinced that
full agreement can be reached with
Germany when the two-poWer con.
versations are resumed shortly on
the outstanding question of the
pace at which Hitler will build the
new German fleet.

FUNDS TOCHECK
ALIENS SOUGHT

Secretary of Labor Perkins yes
terday requested four mikion six
hundred and seventy-five thousand
four hundred and forty dollars of
' ork relief funds for a thorough
census of foreign-born residents
of this country. a sweeping in
vestigation of aliens and strength
ening of border patrols to prevent
illegal entries.
All aliens now on relief in the
United States would be subjected
to careful inquiry, Miss Perkins
declared.
Would Aid Enforcement
Criticized for lax enforcement
of the deportation laws, Miss Per
kins said in her application the
three projects would supply vital
information and assistance to the
Bureau of immigration and Nat
uralization.
The census of foreign-born resi-
dents, including aliens and nat
uralized citizens, would be of i'm.
mediate practical value, accord.
ing to the Labor Department. It
would Centralize for the first time
the immigration and naturaliza-
ton records scattered throughout
the country, many of which are
already falling apart through age
and neglect.
The investigation of the where
abouts and status of aliens ad-
mitted under the various non
quota exemptions was estimated
to cost one million, two hundred
and twenty-four thousand, five
hundred dollars. The Labor De-
partment's application said:
"AlienS have entered the
United States as seamen,
students, treaty merchants,
servants and employees of repre-
sentativeS Of other countries;
ministers, teachers and govern
ment officials of other cOun-
tries.
CHECK INACCURATE
"While records have been kept
Of the entry of such individuals,
it has not been possible to fol
low up each case and record the
departure or local residence.
The exact number thus illegally
In the country is unknown"
The department asked the
border patrols be augmented
from 800 men to 1900 at a cost of
one million one hundred and
seven thousand one hundred
dollars.

that a local boy or girl to make

Local Talent Returns
For Pageant Roles

of a few years back in local thea
tiers and night clubs.
Miss Dulin, born and reared in
Northeast Washington, beg an
dancing with the old Aloysius
Club players, graduated into fea-
tured numbers in stage and night
club entertainments, but just
just couldn't click. At length she
went to New York, changed her
name, and was brought back to
her home town by the Shriners as
feature of the pageant.
The young lady will perform
despite the fact that she fell off a
horse a few days ago while re-
hearsing her role and was pain
fully injured.
Another example of having to
go somewhere and get a name be-
fore receiving the plaudits of
hometown folks is Miss Mary
Deery, another featured dancer in
the pageant.
This talented dancer first came
to local public notice with the old
St. Patrick'S Players, then went to
Broadway and got her name in
lights.
Other home-towners playing a
big part in the pageant are La
Nelle Avery, also a dancer; Maurice
Winthrop, dance director, whose
fame has now spread through the
East, and Tefft johnson, assistant
dance director.
But the headlinerS of the
pageant are merely following the
steps of such illustrious local sons
and daughters as AL Jolson, Ina
Claire, Helen Hayes, in the the
atrical world: Alvin Powell, Bill
Werber and "Bozie" Berger in the
baseball world-all of whom had
to go to other towns to make q
name for themselves before they

Wood, Of New York, declared to.
day at the convention of the
American and Canadian Medical
Associations.
The gas produces unconscious,
ness in from 20 seconds to min.
utes and yet the patient awakens
rapidly as though from a pleas,
ant dream.
DR.. Wood said all types Of
operations have been performed
under this gas and he has found
it more satisfactory than any
other.
Birth Control Study Ordered
Aside from the first scientific
meetings of the convention, the
most interesting topic of the day
among the 5000 physicians at.
tending was the action of the
house Of delegates of the Ameri-
can Medical Association on birth
control.
After evading this highly con.
troverSial subject for four sue
cessive years, the delegates
adopted a resolution directing
the trustees of the association
to appoint a special committee
to make a study of birth control
and legislation related to it, with
instructions to report its findings
at the 1886 meeting.
The birth control committee
will be appointed when the trus
tees meet in September.
Sterility in the human can be
overcome in one out of every two

ment, DR.. Paul Titus, of Pitts

cases in which pregnancies were
induced in 80 of them, or 49.2 per

He listed as among the most

TREASURY HEAD,
S|LVER|TES IN
POLICY RIFT

The long working accord be-
tween the Roosevelt administra-
ton and the Senate silver bloc
appears to have been smashed.
While 16 silverite Senators in
conference at the Capitol deplored
the fall of world silver prices and
moved for more aggressive Treas
ury buying, Secretary Morgen-
THAI expressed satisfaction with
the disappearance" of specula-
ton.
New Understanding Found
He also avoided direct reply to
charges that the Government has
been selling instead of buying sill
yer, and refused to discuss any
part his 1000 million dollar Staol'
lization fund may have played.
A new understanding may be
reached at a conference between
Mr.. Morgenthau and a committee
representing the bloc, authorized
by the bloc yesterday. Senator
Patrick McCarran CD, of Nevada,
will head the silver group. No
date was set.
In a letter to Mr.. McCarran
Mr.. Morgenthau pointed to an
increase of 421 ,497 900 ounces in
Treasury silver stocks in the last
10 months. He cited many other
evidences that the "letter and
spirit" of the silver purchase act
are being carried out.
Speculation Credited
The Treasury's acquisitions are
more than 20 times those called
for by the London agreement,
Mr.. Morganthau said, and 10
times as great as those under the
Sherman act of 1890.
OF the price movement he
wrote:
81 do not believe the sudden
and abnormal rise to 81 cents
in the latter part Of April was
the results of the normal opera
ton of legitimate market
forces.
81 think that it is to be at
tributed to manipulations of
speculative interests. The dis
appearance of this unhealthy
condition and influence has
been a wholesome develop
ment."

PLANES TO BOMB LAVA
PERILING WATER SUPPLY
Explosives Will Be Used to Divert
Flaming Stream From
Wailuku River.
By the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
HONOLULU, December 25.-One
hundred 600-pound bombs were trans
ferred to Hilo Airport yesterday for
use in projected bombardment to
save Hilo's water supply from Mauna
Loa's flaming lava.
Col. Daniel Van VOORHEES,, chief of
staff, said Army officers, following a
conference with Thomas A. Jaeger,
Government volcano expert. had rec
commended bombing the liquid rock
streams Friday in an effort to divert
their flow.
Mauna Loa has been in eruption
more than q month. Last Thursday
the flow Of lava from a great rift in
the mountain increased, coursed down
the slopes and spread into an area
2 miles square, forming a lake about
10 feet deep. Two streams Of lava
sprang from this lake, one flowing
toward the Wailuku River, source of
Hilo's water supply.

RICH TIN LAND TITLE
WAITS ON LEGISLATURE
Argentina's Chamber Of Deputies
Fails to Ratify Boundary
Pact of 1925.

LA PAZ, Bolivia (P.-Failure of the
Argentine Chamber Of Deputies TO
ratify a Bolivian Argentine boundary
agreement reached in 1925 is delaying
development of what is believed to be
q rich deposit of tin on the frontier.
The situation is believed to have
prompted the Argentine Senator San
chez Sorondo to make recent dec
laration that 1900 acres Of rich
Argentine land were 'in possession Of
a neighboring nation"
The Argentine foreign minister ex-
ploded what might have been sensa-
ton by announcing that the territory
referred to was along the Bolivian
frontier and that the question could
be adjusted easily through ratification
Of the 1925 agreement. The Bolivian
Congress and the Argentine Senate
have ratified the pact.
Informed sources in La Paz say the
tin lies in Argentine territory, and
that marking the boundary will be
simple once the Argentine chamber
acts.
But the Argentine Legislature ad-
journed recently and will not meet
again until next May.

Will Eden Measure Up?


ence, it will be the present governments
which will be thrown into the discard.
Will Eden Measure Up?
Premier Baldwin played Santa to
Anthony Eden by giving him as q
Christmas present the most coveted
post in the British cabinet, his mai
esty's principal secretary for foreign
affairs.
Whether Eden's slender shoulders
will be capable of bearing the burden
of that most difficult job is another
question.
William Pitt was younger than Eden
when he became Great Britain's prime
minister. He was only "a. He dis
charged his duties brilliantly so long
as he had to deal with home affairs,
but, according to his critics, his tide
of success began to ebb when he in
volved Britain in a war with the
French in 1898.
Lord Brougham, his friendly
critic, said about him:
"His conduct of the 1Oar betrayed
no ertent of tfetOS , no commanding
notion OF policy.
"To form coalition after an
other in Germany and sIbsidize
,pith millions of free gift until all
potCers in our pay tUere defeated
in succession and most OF them
either destroyed or concerted into
allies of the e7leny-Such tDere all
the resources of his diplomacy"
There is a similarity in the policies
of young Pitt and young Eden.
Under Eden's stewardship, Britain
will have to subsidize its new allies.
Yugoslavia, Turkey, Greece, the other
two Little Entente nations, Spain and
Portugal, have might few resources of
their own to fight another war. The
active partners, Turkey and Yugo-
slavia, have man power, but are in
need of war material. This Great
Britain is going to let them have,
nominally on credit, in fact, gratis.
Famous or Visionary.
OF course, Mussolini is no Napoleon
Bonaparte and nobody quite knows
how long he will maintain his present
tremendous ascendancy over his own
people.
II Italy collapses because Of internal
trouble. as most Little Entente observ-
ers seem to believe, Eden will come out
as the foremost statesman of Great
Britain.
If, however, the italian people are
as determined to stand by II Duce as
they are described to us by the Italian
press and the travellers who have come
back from Mussoliniland, Eden may go
down as visionary who was fooled by
his own visions.
There are many Britishers and
Americans who are somewhat sur
prised that Great Britain should seek
the aid of the "despicable Turk"
Every self-respecting Britisher, includ-
ing Lord Cecil, described the Turk
during and after the war as blot to
Western civilization and consequently
should be chased from Europe. But
the world changes. The "despicable
Turk" has again become the gentle
man Of the East and win remain % -
