ol ot MONDAY, APRIT 22, 1929 HUGH GIBSON URGES FRIENDLY _|RILESFORYARD- SETTLEMENT OF ARMAMENTS Hoover Is Believed to Have Launched a Collaborative Move With Great Britain APPROVES TONNAGE PLANS! America Attaches More Impor- tance to Friendship Than Naval Supremacy Geneva, April 22—(?)—Hugh. 8. Gibson, American ambassador to Bel gium, presenting an eagerly awaited American thesis before the prepar- atory disarmament commission today, appealed for » fresh examination of the entire problem based on the idea that all nations are going to be friends and settle their difficulties by peaceful means. Through Mr. Gibson's address, | President Hoover is generally deemed in Geneva to have launched an im- portant move to place the relations |"! between the United States and Great Britain on a firm foundation of col- laboration and friendliness. Mr. Gibson's declaration of Amer- ican policy, in brief, was a statement to the world that thé United States ‘was ready to make substantial reduc- tions in naval strength and sought a common sense naval agreement based on the idea that nations are going to be friends. With France The United States he explained, had found no reason for modifying its view that the simplest, fairest and most practical method is that of lim- itation by tonnage of categories. At the same time he announced that in the hope of facilitating a general agreement as to naval armaments, the American government was dis- posed to accept the French proposal whereby a total tonnage would be assigned to each nation and this total divided among categories of ships by specified tonnages as a basis of dis- cussion. By today’s appeal President Hoover was felt here to have assured Great Britain, through Mr. Gibson, that the United States attaches more impor- tance to friendships with Britain than to any possible American naval suprethacy, and that it was no ex- aggeration to say that the American declaration profoundly affected inter- national life as reflected in the pre- (AVIATION SECRETARY FLURTS WITH DEATH Has Experiences Only . Fe Hours Old to Relate in Ad- dress to Women’s Clubs * Dayton, O., April 22.—(@)—Forced down three times on a hazardous flight from Washington which be- came a narrow escape from injury or death in an airplane, David S. Ingalls, assistant secretary of the navy for aviation, had experiences only a few hours .behind him to discuss before the aeronautical session of the Ohio Federation of Women’s clubs today. He completed the journey by train. Congresswoman Edith Nourse Rogers, of Massachusetts, likewise was forced to abandon a flight here by thunder- storms which proved too much for her pilot, and she too came on by Ingalls, former war pilot, came down first in rain and fog at Fred- erick, Md. Up again, he continued but an hour later he was forced down again at Somerset, near Uniontown, Pa., where he telephoned for weather reports. He was warned against treacherous going over the Alle- ghenys but took cff a third time, only to lose his way in a fog. He made a forced landing at Seaton’s Lake, Pa., and wrecked the plane. . The ship turned over, bending the propeller, ripping out the struts and demolish- ing the rudder, but Ingalls escaped unhurt. He gave orders to salvage his plane and bought a railroad ticket. Both Ingalls and Representa- tive Rogers plan to fly back. NEW SURGERY USED ON COL. E. M. HOUSE Spinal Anesthesia Leaves Pa- tient Conscious but Pain- less During Operation New York, April 22.—(7)—One of the most recent achievements of paratory disarmament conference. Powers Hail Address Lord Cusherden of Great Britain and the representatives of the three remaining big naval powers, Japan, France and Italy, all immediately hailed the spirit of Mr. Gibson's statement and expressed the convic- tion that it held out high hopes for settlement of the naval problem. Lord Cushendun was followed by N. Sato, of Japan, who annvunced Tokyo had also been studying the question of categories of warships and was likely to have’some proposals to make. He stressed Japan's welcome of the cordial friendly spirit of the American declaration. FEDERALS ADVANGE FOR SONORA FIGHT Mexico City, April 22%(7)—Ten thousand federal soldiers under Gen- eral Plutarco Elias Calles forged northward today across the southern boundary of Sonora for what may be the last big battle of the revolution. At Masiaca and San Antonio So- nora, .50 miles north of the federals' starting point, a rebel army of be- tween 6,000 and 7,000 men was cn- trenched, apparently intending to conttst the federal advance. Three North Dakotans Hurt as Auto Crashes Jamestown, N. D., April 22.—(P)— Bernice Exner, La Moure; W. J.

Miss Exner i Lillibridge are in Trinity hospital and Crum has returned to his home after haying a broken rib dressed. Dynamite Caps’ Blast Nearly Blows Leg Off Pelican Rapids, Minn., April 22. ()—Juel Jenson, 11, is in a@ critical condition in a local hospital, the medical science, improved spinal anesthesia, is exemplified in the major operation on Col. Edward M. House, at the age of 70. Spinal anestresia has been known a long time, but has come into wide favor only. within about a year past. It is administered by injecting an anesthetic directly into the spine, and it produces loss of sensation of pain for the bodily parts helow whatever place on the spine is chosen. Thus it is possible to leave a patient con- scious, and much of his body unaf- fected, while performing a serious operation. The reason for the new effective- ness of spinal anesthesia, and of other advances in surgery, are ex- plained in a summary of the year's accomplishments by the medical in- formation hureau of the New York county medical socicty. “Perhaps the most significant ad- vance in surgery,” it says, “is in the increased employment of spinal an- esthesia. The success of this meth- od has been due largely to the ad- vance in chemistry, whereby it is possible now to use many drugs with- out toxic or lethal danger. “The application of a technique for pre-operative surgery, study and care outlined by the American college of surgeons has had a merked tendency in reducing the dangers faced by pa- tients. Longer hospitalization and better and perhaps more conscrvative handling of the patient have tended and uneventful recover). “In surgical treatment, the out- standing achievement has been the use of the clectric cautery knite for removal of tumors of the brain and the spinal cord. This method has made possible complet2 extirpation of tumors which herctofore often could not be radically removed.” It would take 213 states the size of Rhode Island to make one state as large as Texas.

W., April 22.—(7)— Six airplanes were headed today to- ward the fastness of the Tanimi des- | ert, Northern territory, where the plane Kooka Burra of Licutenant Keith Anderson was seen yesterday with a body beneath one of its wings. The planes, carrying food and med- ical supplics, sought to learn the fate of Lieutenant Anderson and Robert Hitchtock,.who 13 days ago started in search of the then lost Southern Cross, only to come to grief them- selves, The Kooka Burra was sighted yes- terday by a searching plane, the At- lanta, in charge of a pilot named Brain. Brain was on his way to Wave Hill to join the party searching for the flyers when smoke attracted his attention.

In Uninhabited Section The position was given as 80 miles: from Powell's creek and 375 miles| north of Alice Springs in a wild and uninhabited section of Northern ter- ritory. Brain flew back to Wave Hill, and a pack train almost immediately started in the direction he had de- scribed. Hope was held here that the figure seen below the plane was only ex- hausted and not dead, and that the other of the two men would be found alive and safe. Brain said the plane did not appear to be damaged. Lieutenant Anderson formerly was associated with Captain Charles Kingsford ‘Smith of the Southern Le} but later the two broke and considerable animosity developed be- tween them. Despite this, when the Southern Cross was lost on its at: tempted flight from Sydney to Kynd- ham Lieutenant Anderson was one of the first to volunteer to hunt for him.
