Russia, graveyard of his two world flight attempts, became the goal of Jimmy Mattern, American speed flyer, as he an- nounced plans to return the re- cent nonstop Moscow-U. s. flight of three Soviet airmen. In 1882, Mattern and Bennett Griffin were forced down in Russia on a world flight, and Mattern, trying 1t alone in 1883, crashed in Siberia. He is shown smilingly plotting the course of his nonstop polar hop from Oakland to Moscow.

APPROVAL GIVEN
P.W.A. EXTENSION
Roosevelt, However, 0p-
posed to Proposed $780,
100000 Appropriation.

President Roosevelt has agreed to an
extension Of the Public Works Ad-
ministration for two years more, but
opposes proposed appropriation of
s3OO,000,O00 to be made available dur
ing this extension it was learned today.
Mr.. Roosevelt's attitude on this
question was revealed at the White
House by Representative Better of
New York, who, with group Of Rep
resenatiyes, had just discussed the
subject with the President.
Representative Better has intro
duced bill providing for an extension
of two years for the Public Works
Administration. The bill also author
ICES an appropriation of $500 100000
The New York Representative did not
say what he proposed doing now that
the President has made it very plain
that, while he will agree to the ex-
tension of time, he will not agree to
the extra appropriation.
Mr. Roosevelt contends that, for
this purpose, the s155 100000 still in
the revolving fund for use Of the P.
W. A., is sufficient and for that reason
will oppose the addition of the $780,
00O00 proposed in the Better bill.
During the conference between the
President and this congressional group
it was pointed out by the latter that
there are 1894, publ: works projects
which have been approved and which
call for grants OF s398 100000 and
loans of $4,000, 900. Mr.. Better and
his associates are anxious to see these
projects carried out.

him going out for cigarettes, and re-
turning 10 minutes later, around 10

the statement that the c. I. o. seeks
to establish Soviet America"
I'VE ought to know the truth OF
that" Anderson said.
Boykin, declaring that union leaders
have disclaimed responsibility for use
Of the sit down, emphasized that
somebody, in this instance the House
Of Representatives, should determine
where such responsibility belongs.
The ultimate cost Of such tactics,
he continued, are being borne by the
consuming public, adding that prices
in Detroit have jumped 1872 per cent
since the strike wave began.
Harlan, taking most of the commit
tees time before it went into execu-
tive session, declared he could see no
purpose to an investigation except ito
60 on an exploring expedition. bring
union officials before the committee,
stir up new trouble between the A. F..
of L. and the c. I. o. and disclose
what few secrets unions still retain
despite the espionage tactics Of In
dustry"
Beyond an inquiry, he said, Con-
gress Is powerless to proceed since the
Supreme Court has made plain its
limitations with regard to legislation.
Il think the opposition to the sit
down strike is of the same type as
that directed against all labor de-
velopments Of the past" he con-
tinued. THE sit-down Is no more
of shock to the industry group than
the various steps in labors advance
ment since 1900"
IF the interests opposed to the
sit-down insist on fighting every effort
of the Government to help regulate
the relationships Of labor and industry,
then we're going to have sit-down
strikes" he added.
On the statement of Boykin that
he had read in = newspaper that
Gov. Murphy of Michigan declared
himself yesterday tn favor Of such an
inquiry as that proposed, Represent
ative Cox, Democrat, of Georgia ex-
pressed doubt that the State Execu-
tive would support such move "in
view Of his record In recent labor dis
putes."

G0N0RRHEA CURE
IN DAY REPORTED.
So of 64 Cases Responded
Successfully to "Fever,"
Doctors Say.
BY HOWARD w. BLAKESLEE,
Associated Press Science Editor.

Associated Press Science Editor.
NEW YORK, April 1.-Artificial
fever was presented as q new medical
specific" 4 definite cure in one spe-
cial disease-in this case gonorrhea-
by IS physicians yesterday at the First
International Conference on Fever
Therapy.
Cure" was the word repeatedly
used by several Of these physicians.
They said that not every case Is cured.
But they reported cures" ranging
from 10 to 90 per cent of cases treated.
The greatest boon, they agreed, is
reduction in time from the two to
six months treatment required by
previous methods. Many cases have
been "cured" by fever in one day.
One 10-hour session OF fever OF
1868 degrees" said Ors. Arthur Elmer
Belt and Alvin William Folkenberg
of Los Angeles, was tried on 64 cases.
All but fve were cured.
50 Cures" Reported.
The other SO have been found"
the report said. consistently free
from organisms following the To-
hour session" Forty Of the cases
were acute, that Is, in early stage,
in which cures are often easiest. The
other "a were chronic. The single
fever treatment the Los Angeles doc
tors declared, worked essentially
equally well in both types.
The striking rapidity Of the cure"
was reported by Drs. J. Janet OF
Paris and M. r. Dreyfu Of the
Hospital Necker, Paris.
Failures were attributed to three
causes: !. Newness of the treatment.
2. Occasional strains Of germs able
to stand more heat than doctors
thought safe for patients. 3. Advanced
age or other physical weakness max
ing fever too risky.
The special Importance Of fever
treatme to women with gonorrhea
was reported by Janet and Dreyfus and
by Drs w. NJ Bierman and E. A.
Horowitz of New York. Bierman was
last night honored with membership
in the French Legion of honor for his
fever work.
Fever treatment in women, these
physicians said, avoids the major op-
erations often otherwise required. Dr.
Bierman reported 12l women treated
by fever in six years with 80 per cent
success.
Three United States Medical Corps
physicians reported . years expert
ment comparing a group Of soldiers
treated by old methods with another
using artificial fever.
Fever therapy," they stated, "ac-
complished more cures in gonorrhea in
the male than does chemotherapy
(medicine)."
These Army men were Capt. E. H.
Parsons. Maj. P. N. Bowman and
Lieut.. D. E. Plummer.
DR.. Stafford L. Warren of the Uni
versity Of Rochester School of Medi-
cine said it Is possible to test time
needed to kill each type Of germ and
time the patients fever accordingly.
One case Of gonorrheal heart dis
ease, = malady generally regarded a
hopeless, was reported recovered
through fever by DR.. Hugo A. Freund
and DR.. Walter L. anderson, Harper
Hospital, Detroit.
Another supposedly hopeless type
gonococcal blood poisoning, was re-
ported successfully treated with feve,
by Onis G.. Hazel, College of Physi-
clans and Surgeons, New York, anc
DR.. William B. Snow, Presbyterian
Hospital, New York.

France-Favorable in principle, but

European statesmen appeared more
willing to talk about plans to expand
world trade, especially In sugar. Some
quarters said solution OF world trade

merce would pave the way fos con-

But the die has been cast for Euro

Comment of OniciaIs.
Spokesmen stressed that all ma
tions were striving for disarmament a.
an ideal which would remove the
strain of heavy taxation and make
many raw materials availabl, for pri-
vate commerce rather than defense.
While Davis was here ostensibly to
confer on sugar with experts of other
nations next week, an authoritative
source said he might also take the op-
portunity to re-emphasize three basic
points OF the Roosevelt foreign pol
icy-peace, disarmament and inter-
national economic cooperation.
In so far as Britain was concerned
