ENDEAVORERS ASK - ENDURING PEACE More Than 16,000 Delegates Appeal for a “Warless ! World.” By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, July 11.—Closing ses- sions of the sixth world Christian En- deavor convention were held today. Meetings were held in all parts of .he city by the 16,000 delegates, and to- night the convention will be officially closed. Speakers today included many delegates from foreign countries, who . asked aid from America in establishing churches and schools in their lands. The next convention will be held in Des Moines in 1923. More than 16,000 delegates to the con- vention yesterday gave a tremendous demonstration to an appeal for a “war- less world” and a demand that the Unit- ed States join some international asso- clation to promote world peace. They cheered Fred B. Smith, chair- man of the commission on inter- church federation, Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America, as he urged all Christian churches to bring pressure to bear upon the authorities at Washington to make America a member of the league of nations or some other guild. “It is the Christian duty of this country, without further delay, to Join some league or guild that will promote world peace,” he declared, adding: “If isolation from other na- tions comes it wiil be the saddest hour in the history of the United States.” Foresees Danger. The speaker said he had made a three-month tour of Europe and a careful _study of conditions had forced him to realize that never in its history did the entire world rest upon a more volcanic economic foot- ing. "Fhe_spéaker, in urging the Chris- tian Endeavor to use its organization + for the prevention of war, said he be- lieved that a company of men had or- ganized in this country to bring about conflict with Mexico for their own selfish interests. Prior to Mr. Smith’s speech, repre- sentatives of foreign lands made brief addresses of greeting. Miss Emily Ho- ol who has been a missionary in China for thirty years, appealed to Lic ueicgales Lo vring pressure on the President and Congress to stop the Wholesale manufacture of morphine in this country for shipment to China. Much of the morphine which is being shipped into the orient is made in f:“:' York ar;d Philadelphla, she said, ut some also is manufacture Great Britain. 4 4 ert Speer, president of the Fed- eral Council of Churches of Christ in America, declared that the doctrine of Christ is the one and only solution Of the race problewn of the United l THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, RADIO CONTROL OF IOWA POINTS TO WEIRD POSSIBILITIES IN WAR Complete Triumph of Device in Bomb, Tests Suggests Attacks By Crewless Vessels, Guided From Aircraft. The efficlent performance of the battleship Iowa under radio control during recent aerial bombing tests may lead to revclutionary changes in naval development, officers believe. Without a soul on board the lowa was maneuvered from the battleship Ohio, five miles away, with the ut- most precision, and there was not a hitch in the mechanism in more than two hours while the Iowa was being bombed. It was a scientific triumph. The Towa was a real “Flying Dutchman,” that mythical crewless ghost of the seas, as she obeyed the will of Capt. F. L. Chadwick on the Ohio, almost hull down on the horizon. The in- visible, magic fingers of the radio reached out across the sea to whirl the Iowa's steering wheel, operate the fuel oil and water supply valves, and start and stop the ship. So perfectly did the control function that the officers on the Ohio maneu- vered the lowa fro mhie attack- ing air forges at the moment the bombs were being released, varying the speed of the target vessel at will. May sav es In Attack. Army and y officers who wit- nessed the test were much impressed by the possibilities of development of the radio control idea for use in future wars. It was said to be ap- parent that radio control might elim- inate some loss of life in such enter- prises as “block ship” operations, as when the British undertook at Zee- brugge and Ostend to bottle up Ger- man submarines. The “block ship” of the future, it was pointed out, might sall serenely into an enemy harbor without a soul on board and be sunk to obstruct its channel by the elec~ trical explosion of her magazines. Already the Navy is working out plans for shifting control at will from a surface vessel, like the Ohio, to aircraft, either heavier or lighter than air. ~The radio-control device on the Ohio is so simple, officers say. that little difficulty is anticipated in 2dapting it for use in an alrplane or a dirigible. When this development is worked out the controiling air- craft will be able to work at an altitude of 10,000 feet and above, safe from any gunfire from below, and steer the controlled vessel any- where on the sea within fuel radius. New Bomb Tests Planned. A movement is afoot to install radio control on at least one more obsolete battleship and two old de- stroyers to serve as targets for aerial bombing practice and further experiments with radio control. Ex- bility of applying the radio-control idea” to afrcraft also is under con- sideration, and It is Wwithin proba- bilities that glant, crewless bombing planes, loaded with higk explosives, could be launched agninst naval ves- sels, cities and fortafi with no costly sacrifice of trained officers and men. The entire radio-control idea, a post-war development, in its present application is in its infancy, naval ofticers believe, and they expect great Improvements in the eficiency and scope of the control within the next few years.
