PRICE FIVE CENTS Bismarck Celebrates Armistice PRESIDENT MAKES RENEWED PLEA FOR WORLD COURT PLAN Would Have United States Par- ticipate in Friendly Efforts to Maintain Peace ~ ‘Washington, Nov. 11—(P)—A re- newed appeal for adherence by the United States to the World Court and a broad participation of this country in friendly efforts to main- tain the peace of the world was made today by President Hoover. In an Armistice Day address before the Annual Conference and Good ‘Will Congress of the World Alliance for International Friendship Through the Churches, the president pointed out the various treaties and methods that had been worked out for peace- ful settlement of the difficulties among the nations of the world. “In the development of methods of pacific settlement, a great hope lies in ever extending the body and prin- ciples of international law on which such settlements will be based,” he said. “The World Court is now a strongly —_ established institution amongst 45 nations as a continuing body, _perfc and facilitating justifiable determinations which can only be accomplished sporadically under special treaties of arbitration.

Seeks Freedom of Seas “A year ago I made a suggestion of a practical contribution in settlement of an age-old controversy of freedom of the seas. I proposed that food supplies should be made immune from of war that the security of such supplies should be guaranteed by neutral transport and management. I pro- posed it not alone upon humane grounds but that the haunting fears of nations who must live from over the sea might be relaxed and the sacrifices which they make for naval strength might be lessened. Our food supplies are assured and it is therefore, from us, a disinterested proposal. It would make for preven- tion as well as limitation of war. “We, as a Nation whose independ- ence, liberties, and securities were born of war, can not contend that (Continued on page nine) CORN PRODUCTION INCREASE REPORTED Late Growing Season in Many States Causes Boost in Government Estimate Washington, Nov. 11.—(?)—Pros- pective production of corn was re- ported by the department of agricul- ture yesterday to have been increased 47,000,000 bushels over the estimate of a month ago by @ favorable late growing season. ‘The preliminary estimate of this year’s corn crop was placed at 2,094,- 481,000 bushels, as against 2,046,716,- 000 a menth ago and production last year of 2,614,307,000. “Late crops in 1930," the depart- ment said, “were favored by a late growing season in many important states and yields are quite generally above the expectations of s month ago.

The great and small of the capital turned today to the president of the United States for words of reassurance against renewal of war. At two shrines those whose mem- ‘lories went back to 1918 and the war years paid homage.

Gibson Tells Disarmament Com- mission Nation Will Not Ap- prove Proposed System Geneva, Nov. 11—(?)—Unalterable American opposition to any limitation of armaments through a method of budgetry restriction was announced by Hugh 8. Gibson, the Washington representative, at the session of the preparatory commission on disarma- ment here today. Ambassador Gibson's announce- ment was made in the course of dis- cussion of the budgetry method of limitation, which the British Italian representatives said their gov- ernments favored, although not to the exclusion of more direct methods of limitation. ‘The American envoy declared the American government has found it could not change its attitude of op- position to the plan and he asserted the United States was not likely to sign any convention imposing this method, although not objecting to other nations limiting their expendi- tures. “We already practice a system of limitation by direct means, plus full publicity for expenditures,” Mr. Gib- son said. “We believe this the most effective method of limiting arma- ments. In short, we believe it easier to conceal the application of a dollar than to conceal the existence of a rifle.” Suit Against Tunney Is Given to Jurors New York, Nov. 11—(?)—The $526,- 812 suit of Timothy J.

PRESIDENT LAUDS ADVERTISNG AS AID 10 BUSINESS|== Says Publicity Work Has Aided Prosperity by Obtaining Wide Distribution ‘Washington, Nov. 11.—(?)—Presi- dent Hoover told the Association of National Advertisers last night that they contribute to sound government in policing their own business with- out interference of government. In a brief address before the annual convention of the organization, the chief executive reminded his listeners the success of advertising as a me- dium of stimulating demand and con- sequently production rested upon maintaining the confidence of the public. “And to maintain this confidence of the public,” he said, “you and the me- diums which you patronize have an interest that others do not violate confidence and thereby discredit the whole of advertising. Recognize Responsibility “You have rétognized that respon- sibility. The better business bureau and the vigilance agencies which you have set up to safeguard the general reputation of advertising are not only sound ethics but sound business.” In light vein the president dis- cussed the changes brought about by advel i. “It probably required a thousand years to spread the knowledge and application of that great human in- vention, the wheeled cart, and it has taken you only 20 years to make the | ROY automobile the universal tool of man. andj Moreover, your constant exploitation of every improvement in every article and sefvice spreads a restless pillow for every competitor and drives the producers to feverish exertions in new invention, new service and still more improvement. Incidentally you make possible the vast distribution of in- formation, of good cheer and tribula- tion which comes with the morning paper, the periodical and the ra- do 7 °° Contribute to Joy “Your latest contribution to con- structive joy is to make possible the hourly spread of music, entertain- ment and political assertion to the radio sets in 12,000,000 homes. “At one time advertising was per- haps looked upon as an intrusion, a clamor to the credulous. But your subtlety and beguiling methods have long since overcome this resentment.” After concluding his speech the president remained to hear David Lawrence, Washington newspaper- man, who told the advertisers busi- ness has nothing to fear from the re- cent election—that most Republicans and Democrats are “just the same under the sin” in a lack of radical tendencies—and that: “We can look to the future with confidence and as- surance, feeling the spirit of Ameri- can patriotism is rising ebove party.” Withdrawal of Bonds for Chicago Hoodlums Ordered by Surety Head Chicago, Nov. 11.—()—The Hetald-Examiner today said the Grand Central Surety company which has supplied bail for most of Chicago’s hoodlums, was or- dered by its president to surrend- er at once all gangsters it has bonded. Leslie J. Tompkins, professor of law at New York university and president of the concern, was quoted by the paper as saying he had not known his company was bonding criminals. He said henceforth the company would take no part in releasing known gunmen. Tompkins’ action came after Judge John H. Lyle yesterday ordered all criminal bonds issued by the company, brought into court for inspection and directed its manager here to report to its president that the company had furnished bond for “public en- emies.” The company’s head- quarters are in New York. The Grand Central Surety, Judge Lyle said, had provided bond for several Capone gansters including Frank Nitti and Frank Rio. Rio served a year with Ca- pone in a Philadelphia prison.

Carr, lieutenant-governor, who was the er at the memorial meeting at the city auditorium. But as it was a day dedicated to peace, he also sound- ed a note in behalf of world amity. “While we must be prepared for war, let us promote peace,” he said, “and let us pray that some day the peace movement may conquer the world, and then we may say, in the language of the poet, ‘"Tis daybreak everywhere’.” ‘The address followed the usual mili- tary and civic parade, which moved from Second and Broadway at 10 o'clock over its scheduled route. Major Harold Sorenson, chief marshal, .and his aides, Lieutenant G. W.

Ammel, who yesterday com- pleted the first nonstop flight from ‘New York to France field, expects to attempt a nonstop flight to Chicago, where he is a broker. His first concern, he said here to- day, is to get back to his business in Chicago, but after that he will plan a transoceanic flight for next spring, Probably to Paris or Rome. Captain Ammel estimated he cov- ered 3,198 miles on the flight from New York, weather conditions forcing wide detours before he got to the Florida peninsula and just before he reached the Nicaraguan coastline. ‘The direct route between New York and the canal zone is not quite 2,300 miles. Captain Ammel’s little monoplane, the Blue Flash, averaged about 130 miles per hour between New York and France field, where he arrived at 2:44 p.m. He flew over Washington, At- . lanta, Jacksonville, Miami, Cuba and Nicaragua. The flier said he met some bad weather, but had litle actual trouble except at his takeoff at Barren island, New York, when he barely cleared some electric wires. When he de- Parted at 2:10 p. m. Sunday the tem- perature was near the freezing point, but as he traveled south it was neces- sary for him to shed his outer gar- ments to conform to the changing climate. Once, when he was over the Carib- bean, he went tosleep, awaking to find himself in @ vertical bank at a speed of 190 miles an hour. Thereafter he sang loudly in order to keep awake.
