condition and had to undergo re-
spiratory treatment.
John and Joseph. both students at

selves in deep water when they ven
tured into the lake near Benning
Bridge
The younger brother made futile ef-
forts to paddle back to a foothold,
while short way off Joseph also
struggled to keep from sinking.
Their cries attracted Henry Morgan,
II, colored, 1888 Sixth street NV.
who was fishing from a pier. Fully
clothed he leaped in and succeeded in
dragging Joseph ashore. John, in the
meantime, had disappeared beneath
the surface.
The body of the younger boy was
recovered q few minutes later by John
w. Thompson, 81, one-legged occupant
of nearby houseboat, who dragged
for it with a graphing hook.
After being fully revived, Joseph was
taken to Casualty Hospital for further
treatment.

DR.. ANGEL DERIDES
FEDERAL PLANNING
Former Head of Yale University
Says Needed Intelligence Is
Not Available,

BY the Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA, June 15.-Dr.
James R. Angel, former president Of
Yale University, asserted today the
requisite intelligence" necessary for
long-range planning in the United
States Government certainly is not"
available at present.
The educational counselor of the
National Broadcasting Co. told the
graduating class at the University of
Pennsylvania changes in the Govern
ment were being fostered by persons
obviously developing philosophy
alien to the basic conceptions
OF our traditional democracy"
One of the most disturbing fea-
lures of these philosophers" he said,
is the assumption that any one
is wise enough to attempt long-range
planning affecting a Nations entire
economy.
THAT all these longtime controls
thus far attempted have gone on the
rocks, are met with the necessity of
frequent and radical alterations does
not discourage the self -complacent
vanity in which they are conceived" ;"
DR.. Angel was awarded an hon.
orary degree Of doctor of laws at the
commencement.

WAR PRECEDENT
BY BRITISH SEEN
'Non-B BelIigerent's' Right to
Destroy Property Is
Acknowledged.
BY WILLIAM II. sTONEMAN,


LONDON, June 15.-Because the
present British Government wants
Rebel Generalissimo Francisco Franco
to win the Spanish war, and to win
1t in a hurry. so that the work Of
"appeasement" may proceed elsewhere
in Europe, it has established q
precedent which may have reverberat-
ing consequences throughout the
world during months and years to
come.
Although Gen. Franco Is not
recognized as "belligerent" and con-
sequently has practically 10 legal
right to attack a speck Of .nvthing
belonging to . foreign power the
British government has been pre-
vented by its desire not to impede
his victory, from retaliating against
him for his recent attacks on British
ships in Spanish ports. This, despite
the fact which was admitted by Prime
Minister Neville Chamberlain in the
House Of Commons last night that 20
such attacks have occurred since the
middle of April. that IL ships have
been sunk or seriously damaged and
that "in several cases the attack ap-
pears to have been deliberate"
In announcing that the British gov
ernment had decided not to take direct
action against Gen. Franco because
such action would amount to interven-
ton, the British prime minister ap-
pears to have acknowledged the right
of -belligerent parties in general TO
destroy non-warlike cargoes, in neutral
bottoms. whenever the ships concerned
venture into war areas. This would
appear to apply to British ships which
are attacked by the japanese in
Chinese waters and to any neutral
ships in any of the undeclared wars
Of the future.
While this new principle Is certainly
not acknowledged by the American
Government its universal application
by the British, particularly in China
would severely handicap the United
States in protecting its legitimate
shipping interests. Hitherto London
and Washington have jointly main
tanned the right Of their ships I'd
trafnc with Chinese ports.
