Sources in Won Ribbentrop's con-
fidence developed this idea SO
strongly to this correspondent that
there can be little doubt that Rib
bentrop himself gave this line OF
talk to Welles, with whom he was
closeted soon after the Americans
arrival this morning.
The talk began al noon and lasted
until 2:30 o'clock.
Later WelleS announced that his
interview with Chancellor Hitler
had been set for II a. N. tomorrow
Is d. m. EST.
The American was nOn-committal
on his talk with Won Ribbentrop
but said lit was very interesting

by the fast moving steel business, in
dustrial activity has dipped six per
cent under the ten-year peak reach
I'd in December. Statistics show that
retail trade and service businesses,
however, have been holding at the
high levels Of late 1889. Most people
with whom | talked on my trip to
Boston during the past fortnight be-
lieve that the current sag in industrial
activity is no more than natural
reaction from the too rapid rise last
fall. They believe the down trend
will be abruptly halted and the trend
reversed in the next month or two.
This same optimistic outlook was
the keynote of my annual Mid-win-

NAVY SUICIDE
SQUADRON NOW
BEING BUILT
Secretary Edison, on Pa
tifit Coast, Has Faith
in New Graft

LOS ANGELES, Cal, April L.
Secretary of the Navy Charles Edi-
son has arrived here to observe Of
ficially the Pacific maneuvers of
the United States Fleet which start
thsi week
Secretary Edison said he is opti-
mistic as to the utility of the so
called suicide squadron which con-
sists of fast DEATH dealing torpedo
boats-of which the Navy is now
building "a for 100000.
II believe these little vessels will
be of great value to the United
States for numerous coastal patrol
duties, said the Secretary.
For example, the 100 destroyers
now patrolling the Caribbean cost
about $400, 100000 and carry $4,000
men. 1t Is possible that 100 motor
boats, costing only $20,O00,0O0 and
carrying only 1000 men, could do the
same job"
