Italians Accept
Anti Piracy Sea
Patrol Overtures
New Negotiations Will Be
Held to Complete Plans
at Paris

ROME, Sept. %. (UP)-Italy
last night accepted an Anglo
French compromise invitation for
n conference to bring the Italian
navy into the Mediterranean can
ti-piracy" patrol, it was announc-
ed officially.
Britain and France, whose war
ships began q 5000-mile patrol of
the Mediterranean trade routes on
Monday, invited Italy to send ma
val experts to Paris for an "ad-
iustment" of the nine-power Nyon
pact.
Fascist leaders said the confer
ence would wipe out the Nyon ac-
cord and that the Anglo-Italian
negotiations would replace it with
a "Paris pact" Italian diplomats
were suspicious of Russia's reac-
ton to the new conference but
believed France and Britain could
be persuaded to side-track any So
Wet objections.
Italy's acceptance, which was
regarded as the first direct move
in liouidating the grave Mediter-
ranean piracy" tension, was de-
Iiyered to the British and French
charges d'affaires by Foreign Min
lister Galeazzo Ciano at 6:l5 p. m.
The adjustment" was expected
to provide Italy with theoretical
parity in the huge naval demon

Australia S Little
Bears Dying Out

SYDNEY, Sept. 22.-(UP)--
The Koala, or native bear" of
Australia. is again i'm the news.
This little trec-climbinG marSu-
pal, about two feet in length
when full grown, is a, great fa-
vorite with tourists and each cap
ital city has its bear farm"
where the animals can be- prcserv-
ed and petted by visitors. They
are approaching extinction in Il
wild state.
Noel Burnct, probably the
greatest living authority on the
Eoala, declares that if nothing of
practical nature is done to pre-
serve the tiny animal, it will be-
come extinct in 10 years.
To save the animal from ex-
tinction, a KOala club of Australia
was formed recently. laboratories
viii be established to conduct
scientific research into the feed
ing and breeding habits of the
koala as well as the diseases to
which it is subject. An official of
the club said that whereas in
1927 there were millions of koa-
las, there are now barely 10000.
The koala looks like toy
teddy bear" and is confined to
eastern Australia. 1t lives in the
eucalyptus trees, feeding on the
leaves by night and sleeping in
a fork of the tree by day. It's
bear-like appearance is largely
due to the fact that it has no
tail.

U. S. DEFENSES
IMPROVED FOR
NORTH PACIFIC.
Millions Spent Past Few
Years to Make Frontier
More Impregnable
BY HOWARD J. BRlCE
United Press Staff Correspondent

SEATTLE, Sept. %. (UP).-
The federal government has put
millions of dollars INTO frontier
defenses in the Pacific Northwest
and Alaska during the last lew
years, q survey showed today.
All three basic defense arms
the army, navy an dair force
have shared in the mOdernizatlon
and expansion program.
Perhaps one of the most mn
portant developments was the
numerous reconnaissance flights
familiarizing navy and army
filters with conditions in the north
and along the coast. A large area
was mapped during these trips.
Last summer % huge navy pa
troll bombing planes flew nonstop
from San Diego, Cal, TO Sand
Point Naval Air station here, then
proceeded 10 Alaska, where they
engaged in tactical maneuvers
for two weeks. Significant was
the planes ability to fly long dis
tanceS in fast time. They made
the ll00-mile flight from San
Diego in eight hours.
ALEUTlAN BASE STUDIED
Six other patrol planes from
Sand Point went TO Sitka later in
the summer and operated from
the navy tender Sandpiper for
several weeks. A fleet of speedy
army bomberS flew 10 Fairbanks
in 1885. The navy has contem-
plated an air base i'm the Aleutian
island chain for some time.
Fort Lewis. one of the biggest
military reservations in the ma
ton. has been greatly improved
at q cost of more than $1,000
900. Thousands Of troops were
concentrated there last summer
for war games. Other forts 10 be
improved are Flagler. Worden
and Casey. They are on the coast
The garrison at Fort Lewis has
been strengthened as a result of
the congressional act OF 1886 in
creaSing the army'S enlisted men
from $4,000 20 10000. Almost
1000 more men were allotted 10
the fort. which covers approx
mately 10000 acres.
The war department recently
decided to establish one of six
great air frontier bases near Fort
Lewis. The last congress appro-
priated about 100000 for pre-
lminary work on this base. MANY
millions will be spent before il is
completed.
NAVY YARDS IMPROVED
More than n half million dol
lars has been spent on extensive
improvements az the Puget Sound
navy yard at Bremerton and the
KeyDort torpedo station since
1885. Established in 1886. Sand
Point Naval Air station has been
developed rapidly in the last few
years. A fleet of patrol planes
and faster scouting and training
ships is based there permanently.

sources. This deficit, unless
spending is curbed, will go stead
lily upward as income meets sea-
sonal reversals.
The indicated early demise of
PWA will remove from the New
Deal structure the last of the
original "three horsemen" alpha
betical agencies.
Although the AAA and MIRA
were killed, Mr.. Roosevelt never
abandoned their detectives. The
wages-and-hours bill, which failed
in the last congress but which the
administration probably will drive
through the coming session, is de-
signed to act as a partial substi-
tute for NRA. Crop control al
ready is practiced to Il minor ex-
tent through the AAA's soil con-
servation program and congress
has assured the president that it
will be expanded.
The legality Of PWA construc-
ton never was challenged in the
supreme court. Utilities, however,
contested the constitutionality Of
PWA loans to states and munich
palitieS for the construction or
purchase of private power facili-
ties. This phase of PWA activities
was not mentioned by Mr.. Roose-
welt in his "sound policy" obser-
walton.
1t was pointed out that heavy
godos industries, although denied
PWA cash in the future, would
benefit from New Deal spending
through WPA projects and also
through the new housing program
soon to be launched under the su-
pervision of PWA Administrator
Harold L.. Ickes.
