DAYTON, Ohio, June 18-Expan-

type observation balloons was an

Field, Air Corps experimental lab
oratory."
The ships, which can be converted
within q few minutes from captive
units to ones capable of being flown
under their own power, are under con-
struction at Akron, Ohio, and will join
two others of the same type recently
put into service at Fort Sill. Okla, and
Fort Lewis, Washington State
Ofhcers said that upon completion
of an observation mission-such as
the direction of artillery f1re-the bal
loon is hauled to the ground, where
its basket is detached and replaced
with a small two-place car equipped
with an engine
The helium- filled ship may then be
flown to any given destination within
modest range. Primarily. the engine
is intended to make possible the
blimp's return to its "base'-which,

Omcers said the balloons ability

ton. in any feasible way, toward

been, so far as can be seen, no con-
crete forward step in that direction.
but the reaction was symptomatic of
the increasing attention the Hull
declarations are attracting abroad.
And even more encouraging to
American displomats are the intima-
tions drifting in from Rome, Berlin
and Toxic that the evolutionary steps
Of American foreign policy have
caught ofiicial attention there.
The essence Of that policy is its
strong Navy element. With that be-
hind them, American diplomats
around the world are equipped to
speak impressively-urging abandon
ment Of military aggression as an
agency for economic expansion.
Not Casual Training Cruise.
In that light. the coming parade of
the fleet into the Atlantic and back
again through the Panama Canal
cannot be regarded as a casual train
ing exercise alone. 1t tends to re-
affirm usually the doctrine that
America will not withdraw from
China or from any other area where
its citizens are engaged in legitimate
and peaceful enterprise.
What strategiSts of the Rome-Ber-
lin-Tokio triangle can obviously look
forward to. during the remainder of
this administration and probably after
the 1910 presidential election. is a
stiffening American attitude of moral
resistance to the gospel of force. 1t
will be resistance backed by a grow
ing fleet, and, If administration ad-
visers Judge rightly, an r-growing
uncertainty In those capitals as to
the moment at which American pub

That is the stake for which Presi-

their eyes indicates that there will be
much discussion of foreign affairs

NEW YORK, June l8.-The pos
sibility of a lO-cent fare instead of a
nickel on the city's elevated railroad
lines appeared today when Federal
Judge Robert P. Patterson broke the
999-year lease under which the Inter-
borough Rapid Transit Co. has been
operating the elevated lines Of the
Manhattan Railway Co.
Transfer of the lines back to the
Manhattan Co. was stayed, however,
pending an appeal
Nathan L. Amster, president Of the
Manhattan Co., called the dis
affirmance of the lease blessing in
disguise to Manhattan security hold
ers" and said the company already is
preparing to install new turnstiles to
institute a l0-cent fare at all stations
served by Manhattan Co. tracks.
The city has offered to purchase
from the Manhattan Co. the Sixth
avenue elevated line for $12,500 900,
from which would be deducted ap-
proximately 100000 owed the city

UNEMPLOYMENT
HELD PERMANENT
W. P. A. Decides No Single
Program Will End Relief
Problem.
~ the Associated Press.

Iy the Associated Press.
The w. P. A. decided yesterday that
the unemployment problem is last
tog one and can be coped with by
nothing less than a permanent pro-
gram Of economic security.
The relief agency. In a survey. ex-
plored the questions of chronological
unemployment. industrial trends,
prices and wages, then concluded:
mo single program will eliminate
the distress resulting from unemploy-
ment An integrated and perfected
program of insurance. public work and
public assistance will be necessary.
Under such a program, unemploy-
ment insurance could care for per-
sons who lose their jobs for relatively
short periods of time. Persons un-
employed for protracted periods would
receive incomes through work pro-
grams. The most important fact is
that unemployment relief can no
longer be regarded as a temporary
problem to be treated on an emer-
gency basis"
OutmO0ed Local Relief.
The w. P. A. experts said the out
moded local relief of the pre-indus-
t1al era" was inadequate to meet the
shock of a major depression.
They blamed the instability of en-
ployment and the presence of some idle
labor at all time for the probable
permanence Of restitution" The in
stability of the labor situation, 1t
concluded, appears to be a normal
or expected accompaniment OF the
highly-specialized economic system"
while many of the factors con-
tributing to instability and unemploy-
ment may be amenable to a measure
of control, some probably are not"
the w. P. A. said.
Normal Increase of Labor.
The survey said that in addition
to the influences of business cycles
and chronological improvements on
unemployment, the normal increase
of labor supply must be reckoned with.
1t estimated 100000 annual addi-
ton from this latter course and said
1t was likely such a rate of increase
would continue "for some time to
come"
kIn view of these factors" the re-
port said. 1T appears certain that un-
employment will continue to be
serious problem in the future"

By the Associated Press.

A distinct new pattern of American
foreign policy was drawn during the
troubled sessions of the Seventy fifth
Congress. and it was accented at the
very end by the Senate's denunciation
of the bombing Of civilian populations.
That policy, giving a plain warning
to treaty violating states, rests for its
strength on the national defense bud
get which went through Congress by
non-partisan majorities. The budget
includes a billion dollars to run an
expanding Army and Navy during the
next year. More than q billion addi-
tional was authorized to enlarge the
Navy by 20 per cent.
These outlays were voted under
administration pressure, but with a
degree Of non-partisan support for the
big Navy program that cannot fail to
have caught the attention of states
men in Berlin. Rome and Toxic.
Diplomatic Effect Sought.
Ever since the undeclared war in
China began last summer, admins
tration tactics have been calculated
to cement American public opinion on
foreign affairs and. in the long rum
to have 1t expressed in such a way as
to produce diplomatic effect. This
crops out in every fresh utterance by
Secretary of State Hull. BY inescap-
able implication. if not by name, he
unhesitatingly describes Italy, Ger
many and Japan as international
Administration spokesmen, from the
President down reiterate at every
opportunity that they hope for an
ultimate return to world conditions
permitting new attempts at reducing
ornaments. Such hopes also are writ
ten into the Navy expansion bill
Yet they are distant hopes at best,
in the opinion of informed oficials:
hopes attainable only If like minded"
nations can be rallied to wage a long
moral battle in behalf of interna-
tional law. ......-
Encouraged by London.
Washington was encouraged by
London's reaction to Secretary Hulls
