Japan's New Plan
Hoover Would Save.
(Copyright by King Feature
Syndicate. Inc.)
Russian and Chinese officials
are conferring and hoping that
"war" is probably off.
President Hoover, Wednes
day, with Calvin Coolidsre sit
ting beside him, officially pro
claimed the Kellogg peace pact
in full force, four South Amer
ican nations, Switzerland and
powerful Japan adhering to
the pact just in time. ' '
That, this pact could have
prevented war between China
and Russia, without violent
outside interference, is not
clear.
At lcasl.it gives nations (hat
happen not to wan! war an ex
cuse for rebuking the quarrel
some. That should help. '
Britain's labor government
emphasizes the statement that
"preparation for war with the
United States lias never been
and never will be a basis of our
policy in any case."
This country certainly does
not want war with Britain,
never intends ' to have it, or
with anybody else, if il can be
avoided.
Picking flaws is unpleasant.
But the British do maintain, in
the West Indies, warlike prepa
rations that can be aimed only
lit the Tnitcd Stales.
We have no such" arran'ge
menls on the long border sepa
rating us from. Canada. And
Canada has none.
U. .1. Crouiie, able owner of
the Vancouver Sun, attaches
impn(gince to the downfall of
the recent government of Ja
pan. The new government will
' seek to trade will) China by
good will, not at the point of
the bayonet.
Mr. Cromie warns Americans
and Canadians that they must
work to hold and increase
trade with China against Japan,
possessing the advantage of
geographical proximity, racial
likeness, political affiliations.

View Opposition Mac
Donald Announcement in
England Is Lessened By
Hoover's Action Japan
Considers.
PORTr.AN'll, Me., July 2ti. (VP)
President Hoover is "entirely in
error" in his interpretation of n
proviso in ttie 15-ci-uiser law that
he i.s empowered to suspend cmi
struction of any of the vessel, u
lliorlzed in that measure, until Jitnc
:1. l!i:u, Frederick Male of this
city, chairman of the senate naval
affairs committee, stated toduy.
WASHINGTON. July 26. (A')
Under President Hoover's interpre
tation of the a-eruist-r law, he is
empowered to hold up the construc
tion of any of the vessels author
ized hv that measure until June
30,
This was announced today at the
White House. A flection of the hill
was pointed out as Mr. Hoover's
authority for this stand. After
stipulating; that five cruisers each
shall be laid down In the fiscal
I years of 11129, 1H30 and 1M1, the
measure makes the following pro
viso: "Provided, that if the construc
tion of any vessel herein nut hor
ded to he undertaken in the fiscal
year ending June 30, 1HM, or 1H30.
is not undertaken . in that fiscal
year, such const met ion may he nu
clei taken in the next succeeding
fiscnl year.." ... .
During the two years' considera
tion of the new cruiser construction
act in congress, one of iho chief
points at issue was over tile "time
clause" or that section of the act
setting forth the period In which
(lhe war craft should be built.
I The controversy over this sec
tion frequently was referred to as
I the contest between those desiring
what was described as a "paper
! navy" and those seeking "steel
ships."
These two classifications resulted
: from the efforts of some members
of congress to give the president
,discretionary powers to suspend
i part or all of the proposed con
struction if he deemed the prospect
ranted such action.
LONDON', Eng., July 2H. (p)
Less opposition was manifest today
to naval building suspension an
nounced Wednesday by Premier
Mac Donald, President Hoover's
similar announcements affirming
the almost general satisfaction the
move aroused.
The Post, conservative, and
known as the mouthpiece of the
big navy advocates, which yester
dny was hitter against MacDonald,
today said: "If the premier had
been utile to tell the commons the
suspension he proposed was to by
balanced by a similar suspension
across the Atlantic he would have
mitigated a- natural perturbation.','
The Post declared it was reas
suring the premier did not make
"any precipitate surrender of rela
tive strength," remru-Uing that the
ultimate arrangements depended
upon unknown factors. It added:
"Desitable as a naval agreement
would he, it would be bought too
dear if it involved a navy built
not according to the needs of the
Mritish empire, hut according to in
ternatioiial specifications."
TOKYO, .lapan. July 2i. (p)
Official circles intimated today the
government was considering the
possibility of voluntary curtailment
of navul building as a gesture sup
porting building suspensions an
nounced by President Hoover ami
PiHinier MnclKniald.
Other authoritative sources
doubted the cruiser program would
be altered, since t he last of the
eight cf nisei s of 10.000 tons was laid
down in Decmber. It is be
lieved possible some of the lesser
craft might be postponed.
The leading newspapers of Tokyo
have praised warmly the announce
ments of the president nnd Mr.
MacDonald.

ST. LOUIS. July 2C. OT The
"St. Louis Robin" had clipped off
its .1I7th hour of sustained flight
at 1 2 : t r p. 111., (C. S. T.). today al
j the latest word from the pilots,
iDnle (Red) Jackson and Forest
! O'Rrine, was that "it isn't bad at
all." At -that hour they had ex
ceeded the. endurance record of
the "Angeleno" by 70 hours.
Indicating: the continued high
spirits of the fliers, O' Brine said
In a note to his wife, dropped
from the plane, that they had de
cided to set a 'record 'that would
stand longer than any of the
others. ...... 4- :-.'.-.
"Wo Just started whore the rest
left off," he , wrote, and added
"when we get through the rest
won't care to start."
ST. LOniS, July 20. (P With
"good flying" weather forecast for
.several days ahead, the St. Louis
Uohin continued soaring on a rec
ord sustained flight today with
50O hours as the objective. It was
the mark set by Dale "lied" Jack
sun, who with Forest O' Urine, are
maneuvering the craft above l;ini-hert-St.
Louis field, to friends
before he ascended on Saturday,
July 13, nearly two weeks ago.
At S:3S p. m. (C, S. T.) hist
night the Kobin has flown to a
time double that made by the
army plane, Question Mark, hist
January, nnd continued. From
the tone of the notes dropped by
the airmen It wan still il question
of how long the engfm; would
"run" and not a question of hu
ninn endurance.
Jackson nnd O' Brine were con
cerned with the Houston endur
ance plane, the Billion Dollar City,
especially after the exchange of
telegrams yesterday. The Itoliin
had a foo hour lead on the Texas
plane, but "lied" nnd "Ohie" ex
pressed the idea of 'staying up
until the Billion Dollar City fal
tered nnd descended.
There was $1500 In the jackpot
being received by the chamber of
commerce l;ft?t night for the fliers,
in addition to the- $G7.1 they are
earning for each 2 4 -hour period
