It was learned, however, that the Coolidge articles will not deal with the fine points of diplomacy or poli- tics, but rather with the “human” side of life in the white house. {0 DEATHS BLAMED IN PEORIA, ILLINOIS, | TO BOOTLEG POISON Wealthy Livestock Brokers’ Party Ends in Death for Liquor Consumers Peoria, Il.

UMBERTO NOBILE IS OFFICIALLY BLAMED FOR ITALIA TRAGEDY Find No Justification for Let- ting Himself Be Rescued From Ice First (eee | Rome, March 4—(AP)—Official blame for the disaster which ended the north pole flight of the dirigible Italia last May was attached today to General Umberto Nobile, its com- mander, Two counts are contained in the censure, which was made by the of- cial board of inquiry into the disas- ter. appointed by Premier Benito Mussolini. The first of these blames Nobile for the crash i second finds no acceptable justification of his let- ting himself be rescued from the ice first when finally the Swedish avia- tor Lundborg reached the stranded men. The report contains the highest praise of Captain Albert Alberto Mariano, pilot, and Captain Filippo Zappi, navigator, whose conduct with the Swede, Finn Malmgren, was the subject of many reports aft- er their rescue. The report says the wreck of the Italia was due to a “faulty mancu- ver, the result partly of the com- position of the crew and of the way the craft was handled. Responsibi]- ity’ of the maneuver falls on the Italia’s commander.” The rescue work, both of Italians and Nationals of. other countries, was praised highly. The committee was presided over by Admiral Cagni and had as mem- bers four generals, one admiral, and one senator. The Italia crashed on the ice north of Spitzbergen on May 25 on its re- turn from a trip over the north pole. Part of the gas bag with six men aboard was carried away and never heard of since. One was killed in the crash, another died later while eight men were rescued after a month to six weeks on the ice. Roald Amundsen and Rene Guil- baud, French aviator, lost their lives in the attempted rescue of the stranded men.

Speaking to all the world in an in- augural address delivered from the historic east steps of the capitol, the new chief executive declared disre< gard of law the nation’s greatest peril, and appealed directly to his fellow citizens to help secure observ- ance of the prohibition law. With hand upraised, he had re- peated the words of the official oath of office, administered by Chief Jus- tice Taft, shortly after noon, and had kissed the Bible at a passage saying “Where there is no vision, the people perish; but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.” A half hour earlier Charles Curtis had succeeded Charles G. Dawes as vice president in a ceremony inside the senate chamber, enlivened unexe¥ pectedly when the new and retiring second officers making the customary brief addresses, disagreed directly on the old subject of the senate rules. Coolidge Private Citizen Calvin Coolidge, once more a pri- vate citizen after 30 years of govern- ment service, turned from the inau= gural ceremony to begin at once his journey home to Northampton. He had seen power pass from him with’ whatever of emotion may have been struggling within hidden behind a. Serene inscrutability. For the imme- diate future, he will devote himself to a series of magazine articles. An inaugural parade, in some re- spects the most ambitious in history, was the last act of the inaugural drama, including in its allotted units the great dirigible Los Angeles and- a hundred circling airplanes. Nearly every state had its place in the long line of marching clubs, bands, mili- tary commands, and automobiles loaded down with silk-hatted gover- nors. Officials estimated that the rear guard would not pass the white house reviewing stand until late aft- ernoon.
