VITAM[NES ;!EJECTED BY HUNGRY WHITE RATS Record Book Chewed Up by Ro- dents Used in Test by Cali- | | { | fornia U. Students. ! By the Associated Press. | BERKELEY, Calif., April 18.—Some white rats, under observation for the effects of a newly discovered vitamine, | recently tipped over their cages in search of food, and, seeing mothing | eise handy, started in to devour the | record book of their activities made in the household science department | of the University of California. White House S ' Rule - Against Will Still Speak for Mr. BY DAVID LAWRE disposed to change the rules whereby President Coolidge cannot bg quoted directly or indirectly in reference to the information he gives to the press, |a subject on which there has been some agitation recently because of the varying impressions derived by the correspondents from their semi-weekly call at the White House. The infor mation divulged by the White House spokesman at the last conference is as follows: 1. That the President does not think there is anvthing new to be said about loans American bankers have made abroad. This goes on the same as any other ‘kind of foreign business, the bankers making their loans when they think it will be a profitable business to make them. He meant loans made for private purposes abroad. He couldn’t tell, of course, without having the facts be- fore him and getting the statistics and knowing what the loans: were made for, knowing what imports we are having and what exports we aré hay- ing as to the effect of such loans on our protective policy. Hadn’t Seen Speech. The President didn't see the speech referred to, which was said to have been made recently by Senator Butler of Massachusetts on this subject and not having seen it he could not com. ment on it. The only thing that could be indicated about its effect up to date on our protective policy was Secretary Hoover mentioned at the last cabinet meeting, namely that our gains in imports were gains in the importation of raw materials and our gains in exports were gains in the ex- portation of manufacturing products. That was along the line that the pro- tective policy sought to produce and stimulate. It was very dificult to say what raw material is. Some say there isn’t any such thing as raw material. ‘What he meant was in a general way products like wool and those things that go into further manufacture after they come into this country. That may not be considered as raw material in a certain sense of the word. But by raw materials he meant those products that were not ready for final consumption. 2. That the President hadn't any information about the dirigible Los Angeles taking any pictures of those Wwho might be supposed to be engaged in smuggling, and the query was the first heard of it. Wants Audit Made. 3. That the mew alien property custodian .aturally wanted to have an audit made so as to show what property came into his hands and for that purpose it was arranged the controjler general that some of the accountants at his office be used. That was the usual method of turn. ing over property from one custodian to another—to take an audit at the time in order that the man going out might know what was turned over and the man coming: in know what comes into his hand. When the class conducting the ex- | periments gathered next day, the! record book was found in bad shape. | Several valuable pages had been chewed out.

'Fhe spokesmen having been ask- ed whether there was any progress or plan of what to do with the German property replied thet that was all de- cided in the treaty between the United States and Germany 6. That the President didn’t have any further plan about attending the Mecklenburg celebration, that a large committee came to invite the Presi- dent to come, but he couldn't see a nt time how it was going to ible for him to go. That there wasn't anything at the Friday cabinet meeting except small interdepartmental matters. 8. That the President hadn’t heard of any refusal on the part of any of the foreign governments to grant diplomatic status to Treasury agents engaged in customs work abroad, and that he didn't know just what the practice had been in that connection, so he was not realfy able to give much information about it.

Terada, science professor in Tokio University, says that the destruction of the dirig- her crew, was caused by a broadcast radio wave, Dr. Terada was a member of the board appointed to investigate the explosion, and after it had ended its labors without finding a theory he continued his experiments.
