were spending tonight afloat In their

powerful ocean currents.
They landed on the lee side of
Ketol Island at 4:45 p. m. Tokyo time,
today (2:45 n. m., E.S.T.), after flying
over the central portion of the Kurllc
Island chain, trying to avoid a big
fog bank which loomed ahead of them
after they had flown more than half
way to Nemuro.

more than an hour, trying to feel
their way 1 through tho fog bank - to
Murotan bay, Shlmushlru Island, and
finally came down through a hole in
the fog, 15 miles distant, at Ketol.
There they faced the problem of
spending the night afloat on the
strong ocean currents which even

PROSPERITY FOR
T REVISI
y
International Bankers See
Political Differences Be
tween Countries Also As
Bar to Better Conditions
WASHINGTON, Aug. 19. (AP)-i.
High government officials read with
interest today tho Wlggln report pro?
nosing a revision of reparations and
inter-governmental debts, but no
comment was forthcoming and indi
cations were the government would
not see fit to reiterate formally la
attitude.
BASEL. Switzerland. Aug. 19. '(AP)
Ac recommendation that the entire
structure of lnter-governmental war
debts and German reparations be re
vised was made by the Wlggln Bank
ers' committee.
The committee was set up by the
bank for International settlements
at the behest qf the seven-power
conference In London, to Investigate
Germany'a credit needs. It la headed
by Albert H. Wlggln of New York,
chairman of the board of the Chase
National bank, and Is composed of
the representatives of tho ten leading
banking nations In the world.
Their roport criticised political dir
ferences existing between Germany
and her European neighbors, and urg
ed that current disputes be cleaned
up In order that "good times" might
again provall In all nations.
Payments An Obstacle.
Germany's reparations payments
wero assailed as an Immense ob
stacle to tho peaceful, economic prog
ress of the world and the great powers
were advised to "lose no ttmo ' in re
vising the schedule of international
paymenta.
We therefore conclude." the report
said, "by urging most earnestly upon
all governments concerned that they
lose no time In taking the neoassaryj
measures lor , cringing., aoout, . sih.v
condltlons as will allow financial op
eratlons to bring to Germany, and
thereby to the world, sorely needed
assistance.
We think It essential that before
the period of prolongation of credits
rccommenaea ny me ixnaon comer
ence comes to an end that the gov
ernments concerned should, give to
the world the assurance that Inter
national political relations are estab
lished on a basis of mutual confi
dence, which Is the sine qua non of
economic recovery, and that Inter
national payments to be made by
Germany will not be such as to Im
peril the maintenance of her finan
cial stability."
tankers Change Views.
The recommendation came from
leading bankers of the United 8tats
and France, heretofore outstanding
opponents of such revision.
Until relations between Germany
and other European powers are firm
ly established on the basis of sym
pathetic cooperation and mutual con
fidence," the report said. "And an
Imriortant source of difficulty Is
thereby removed, there can be no as
surance of continued and peaceful
economic progress.
The second obstacle relates to tne
external obligations of Germany. So
long as these obligations, both pri
vate and public, are such as to in
volve either a continued Increase in
the snowball of Germany's foreign
debts or. alternately, a dispropor
tion between her Imports and ex
ports on such a scale as to threaten
the economic prosperity of every
country, the Investor la not likely
to regard the situation as stable or
permanent."
A committee representing uer-
many s creditor nations, meeting
alongside the Wlggln group, agreed
to recommend to their central banks
that existing short term credits total
ing about 1 1. 200.000.000 be extended
for a further six-months period.

Oovernor Pinchot today sent a let
ter to President Hoover urging him
to call a special session of congress
In the near future to consider the
question of federal aid to provide

"You have yourself asked for ap

vised their expenditure, it wouia

000, or nearly one-quarter of the
whole working population." Oover
nor Pinchot wrote. "Wages are de
creasing; distress In many counties
is acute; many children are suffer
ing from nartlal starvation: because
of unemployment the hospitals are
over-burdened, and the demand for
charity shows no decrease since sum
mer over the high record of last

DAYTON. O., Aug. 19. (AP)
An air minded world, steeped in

At a quiet summer retreat on

BARTLETT PEARS
AT FRUIT PLANTS
Packing house managers and ship
pers throughout the city and valley
are rallying to the plan for giving
tho cull pears and applea to needy
families as proposed this week by the
Mall Tribune. A check of the mnny
packing houses today revealed Hint
large quantities of Bartlett pear culls
of good quality are now available at
the plants.
Tho plan Is to benefit families
which would otherwise be forced to
go without the fruit this winter. The
tons of Bartletts are now ready for
canning, making preserves and for
the many other uses to which they
can be put for winter consumption.
The packing houses urge that all
persons wishing to obtain the fruit
bring their own sacks. They also re
quest that persons capable of hand
ling tho fruit themselves call. It will
be Impossible for the workmen to de
vote their time to putting the pears
Iri cart or trudks Inasmuch as they
are being given away without oost.
The plan of . disposal will make it
possible to utilize tons of pears and
apples which are otherwlso hauled
away to garbage dumps. Apples will
not bo ready for several weeks. Late
pear culls will begin to accumulate
at the plants next week. It is ex
pected. Bear Creek orchards have Bartlett
culls at the present time that they
are willing to give away, providing
the people furnish their own boxes.
pinnacle packing houses have How
ells and Winter Pears which they aro
glad to give. 1
Westerlund orchards havo announc
ed their willingness to give away all
of their culls, which are at tho My

Med ford Fruit company will give
away all culls, providing they are
taken from the plant by truck so
that workmen will not be Incon
