PRESIDENT WINS,
DEFENSE TEST IS
SET FOR JULY 4
I
WASHINGTON. May 25. (A. P.) t
A nation-wide defense test muster
of man power will be held under dl
n. tion of the war department next
Julv 4. , ..
The dato was selected definite j
today after president Coolldge had!
.i ihr Menartmenfs selec
tion of Armistice day and had sug
gested that independence day be sub
stituted. The president also advised
that the department make clear to
the governors of the states that any
state co-operation would be "purely
voluntary." (
A conference of general stuff of.
fleers to begin work on pinna for the ,
muster as called at once. Acting'
Secretary Davis' communications on
the subject to the governors of
states will be framed In accordance
with an expressed desire of the resi
dent that they would -emphasize that
any action taken by the states will
be of a purely voluntary character.
The National Guard and the or
ganised reserves, as well as the civil
ian military training camps and other
auxiliary units of the new army
system will be compelled to move at
double speed in preparing for the
muster, owing to the brief time re
maining. ;
War department officials, there,.'
fore, do not expect as complete at
test of the muster system as would
have been possible nt a later day in
the year, but they will employ every
resource to mnke it the best demon

LONDON, May 2 5. Lady Drum
mon Hay, correspondent nt Tangier
of the Daily Express, makes grave
charges against the Spaniards in a
dispatch, nnmely. violation of all
convention and treaties affecting the
Tangier neutral zone, the shooting
and bombing of peasants, raiding,
looting and burning of villages and
driving people into Tangier, which,
she says, is already overcrowded with
starving and diseased refugees.
The correspondent adds that mat
ters have become so serious even the
Spanish representative at Tangier has
been obliged to take notice of the pro
tests while the IJrltish and French
authorities are taking up the question.

NKW YuKK. .May ( liy As-so-
ttcd Press.) .Mingled expressions nf
pi'Ht in bin and optimism are voiced
by Htithortiies here regarding the fate
nf ihe Aniuml.'ii'n-KllHwnrtli pnlar ex
pedition. The Norwegian explorer,
his American backer anil their four
couipanlniiN have not been heard from
since they left Spitsbergen for the
pole in two airplanes Thursday night.
Persons most familiar with Captain
Amundsen and polar exploration see
nothing alarming in his failure to re
turn to bin base in 24 hours as orig
inally planned. Karl Kossman. a
photographer who 11 veil tu Amund
sen's supply hut at Waiuwright, Alas
ka, i bought that Amundsen's thor
oughness was probably responsible for
the delay.
"If he has found a new continent
he will bag It so thoroughly Otat no
body will be able to (tiesllon It,"
Uossman said.
Others feared a forced landing, in
jury to either the planes or men or
hoili. or some accident In either land
ing or taking off for the return.
It was pointed out, however, that
i ho expedition carried sufficient food
for a mouth and that at tho expira
tion of that time the party should be
in territory where it could kill nor
thern game, liifles ami ammunition
for this contingency were carried in
ihe planes.
Vernon S. Prentice, brother-In-law
of , Lincoln Kllswnrih, believed the
planes woubl land In Alaska. Mr.
I'rcmico said be felt no concern be
cause of the delay and he expected no
word until tomorrow.
A mundsen'M desire to find new
lands would probably lead him to
steer for Alaska. Mr. Prentice said.
This view whs shared by Vtlhjalmar
Stefansson and other explorers, ultho
dispatches from Nome threw doubt
on t he probability of Aniundson's
aiming for the American peninsula.
No concerted plans for a relief
party have been made but the Amer
ican expedition of Commander Lonald
Mm-M Ulan is leaving I tost on for the
