IPINEDO'S FLIGHT PLANS UNGERTAIN Trip From Cape Verde to Brazil Depends on Weather. By the Associated Press. ROME, February 19.—The exact time of Comdr. Francesco de Pinedo's departure from Porto Praya, Cape Verde Islands, for Port Natal, Brazil, depended tonight entirely on atmos- pheric conditions, it was semi-officlally stated here. It was believed unlikely that he would hop off tonight, although there was a bare possibility he might if the weather became more favorable at night. Officials at the aeronautical ministry thought it more probable he would take off on his 1,700-mile hop across the South Atlantic tomorrow morning. Plan Non-Stop Flight.

N.E The most complete confidence was expressed that the trip to Port Natal would be made without the necessity of Comdr. de Pinedo's landing on the Island of Fernando Noronha, which is about 300 miles from the Brazilian coast. The route from the Cape Verde Islands to Fernando Noronha and thence to the Brazilian mainland was followed by Ramon Franco, Span- sh aviator, last year. The fact that the laps from Bolama, whence Comdr. De Pinedo originally had planned to hop off, to Dakar, Senegal and to Porto Praya were car- ried out exactly on schedule was con- sidered auspicious, since it indicated that the commander’'s hydro-airplane, the Santa Maria, was in excellent fly- ing shape. Scanty News From Flyer. News from Comdr. De Pinedo con- tinued to be exceedingly scanty. The authorities, apparently on orders from Premier Mussolini, were not nouncing the contents of the aviator’s official reports in conformity with the premier's desire to have the achieve- ments speak for themselves. The press comments briefly on the- forthcoming flight, saying that the circumstances which forced Comdr. De Pinedo to abandon his plan to fly directly from the mainland of Africa to the mainland of South America wero entirely out of control and that hence they do not cast any deroga- tory reflection upon the aviators or their equipment. TOKIO ACCEPTANC! OF ARMS BID URGES OPEN-MINDEDNESS (Continued from First Page.) forthcoming session of the preparatory commission for the disarmament con- ference at Geneva shall be empowered | to negotiate and to conclude an agree- ment among those five powers for the limitation of armament in the classes of naval vessels not covered by the Washington treaty. Shares American Views. “The Japanese government fully shares with the American Government the views expressed in that memoran- dum on the desirability of an agree- ment calculated to complete the work of the Washington conference for the prevention of competitive naval build- ing. They cordially’ welcome the initiative taken by the American Gov- ernment for the institution among the five powers of negotlations looking to such desirable end. They will be happy to take part in these negotiations through their representatives invested with full powers to negotiate and to conclude an agreement on the subject. “In view, however, of the supreme importance of the problem to be dis- cussed and determined, the Japanese government finds it essential that at least a part of the Japanese delega- tion shall be specially sent from Tokio. Considering the length of time required for the necessary prep- arations, as well as for the journe#® from Tokio to Geneva, it will obvious- 1y be impossible for the Japanese rep- resentatives to assist at the negotia- tions, should that meeting be held simultaneously with or immediately after the forthcoming session of the preparatory disarmament commission, scheduled “to be opened on March 21 next. Date After June 1 Proposed. Accordingly, the Japanese govern- ment desires that the meeting of the powers signatories of the Washington naval treaty now suggested should take place on a date not eariler than June 1. “The Japanese government are fur- ther gratified to learn that it is not the intention of the American Gov- ernment at this time to put forward rigid proposals on the ratios of naval strength to be maintained by the several powers in the classes of ves- sels not covered by the Washington treaty. In order to ensure the suc- cess of the proposed negotlations, it seems highly important that in the matter of these conditions of the limitation of armament all parties to the negotiations should approach the subject with an open mind, being al- ways guided by the spirit of mutual accommodation and helpfulness, con- sistent with the defensive require- ments of each nation. The Japanese government confidently hope that an adjustment will be reached in a man- ner fair and satisfactory to each of the participating powers and con- ducive to the general peace and se- curity of the world.” Next Step in Doubt. Senator Borah, chairman of the foreign affairs committee, was among President Coolidge’s callers yesterday and the arms limitation question was| discussed, but no intimation as to what was sald was given either at the White House or by the Senator. So far as known the Washington Government is keeping an open mind as to the next step toward practical arms limitations agreements it may find it expedient to take. If the replies of the four major naval powers approached by the United States disclose possibilities of agreements of a more limited char- acter than was originally contemplat- ed, presumably President will revert to that condition in the Coolidge | THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. €., FEBRUARY 20, 1927—PART 1. it bt 3 NEWEST GLOVER PARKWAY ADDED TO THE DISTRICT’S SYSTEM @ 4 CHARLES G. GLOVER, Sr. BULK OF BUSINESS OVER AS CONGRESS ENTERS STRETCH (Continued from First Page.) on their adjusted compensation cer- tificates. The last bill is likely to be jammed through, as is the public buildings bill. The present session of Congress has been a surprise. More important measures have been brought to finil vote in the two and a half months of its life than the most sangnine prophet foretold. It is possible that even in the remaining two weeks bills awill squeeze through which now appear doomed. Farm Bill an Example. Few dreamed that the McNary- Haugen bill could reach a final vote. Even with Col. Frank L. Smith, Sen- ator-designate from Illinois, knock- ing at the door for admission, the Sen- ate has been able to handle a vast amount of work. At one time it was feared that if Col. Smith, accused by the Reed slush fund committee, should accept appointment to fill the McKinley vacancy, the business of the Senate would be so tied up as 10 prevent the final passage of sume of the supply bills. But this has not been the case. After a brief debate the Senate de- clined to permit Col. Smith to iake the oath of office and referred his case to the privileges and elections com- mittee. There it is likely to remain for the rest of the session. One big fight still looms. The con- test over the proposed appropriation for three new scout cruisers, placed in the Navy bill by the Senate, is still to be settled. The conferees of the Senate and House on this meas- ure failed to meet yesterday, but are to come together Tuesday. Senate Conferees Confident. ‘The Senate conferees believe they have their House brethern on the hip because of failure of France to accept the President’s proposal for a five-power naval limitation agree- ment. It was expected last night, however, that the cruiser amendment would have to go back to the House for a separate vote. Representative French of Idaho, in charge of the Navy bill in the House, conterred with the President yester- day at the White House. The Presi- dent has been opposed to the cruiser appropriation at this time. It fis understood that the administration is still hopeful, despite the attitude as- sumed by France, that some agree- ment for further naval limitation may come out of the President’s proposal and the meeting soon to be held in Geneva. A number of important nominations, sent to the Senate by the President, still hang fire, among them appoint- ments to the United States Tariff Com- mission and the Federal Trade Com- mission, and the appointments to the Public Utilities Commission of the District of Columbia. The Senate will be asked to consider them before it adjourns finally. o British coal flelds are approaching normaley, with 850,000 miners pro- ducing more than 4,000,000 tons week- ly.

The tract lies between Fort DuPont and the Anacostia River and forms_another link in the proposed parkway connecting Anacostia Park and Fort DuPont.

(Continued from First Page) is dominantly education or the areas considered m in their relation to existi pected conditions of Jand tenure, gov- ernmental _jurisdiction, traffic’ and transit facilities Park System Suggestions. Generally, the report recommended that the park system follow the lines of the various rivers and creeks, in- cluding the Potomac and Anacostia Rivers, Rock Creek, the northwest and Paint branches and their tribu- taries. “Perhaps the simplest wa line the areas of greatest terest within the Washington region is to briefly review some of the pro- Do previously made for regional parks,” the report continued. ‘“Any list of such proposals should start with Great Falls and the gorge of the Potomac. Near the top of the list we should place the Mount Vernon boule- vard, which has been a live project since 1889, or longer. Since the War Department has been authorized to sell certain of the lands in its control, attention has been vigorously called to the park values of Forts Washing- ton, Hunt and Foote on the lower Potomac. At the same time the pos- sibilities of the large areas in public ownership at Fort Humphreys and Camp Meade have been suggested. “In connection with Camp Meade, the proposal of William M. Ellicott of Baltimore for a national forest in the area about Washington deserves some mention. Mr. Ellicott in conjunction with the State forester of Maryland has studied the possibilities of a forest between the Capital and Camp Meade, with forest drives or a parkway-by that route to Baltimore. Site of New Reservoir. “Mr. Ellicott's scheme includes also the acquisition of the rugged terrain along the Northwest and Paint Branches. The upper part of the area along the Northwest Branch is to be the site of a new reservoir of the Washington Suburban Sanitary Com- mission. That commission has ex- erted itself to preserve the valley of Sligo Branch and to get a parkway through the valley down to Hyatts- ville.” Taking up the mater of the use of the proposed open spaces, the report says that they should provide areas for recreation of many sorts and for other uses. They should provide for enjoyment of recreation by movement on motor roads in pleasant surround- ings and in locations commanding views of the finest scenery of the re- gion. In all of the reservations, it suggests, opportunities should be seized for the construction of bridle paths and hiking trails, and there would be ample areas for those who seek active recreation in the form of games. Picnic groves, observation towers and properly ordered tea houses and refreshment places should not be over- looked, so that visitors to the parks may stop and enjoy the scenery or contact with natural beauty in a more passive manner. Airport Is Recommended. “There should also be added ‘special purpose areas’ and private and semi- public open spaces,” the report con- tinues, ‘““Two or more special purpose areas are included in the projects rec- ommended, as, for instance, a com- mercial airport and the new reser- voir on the Northwest Branch. A list would include a site for the experi- mental farm now located at Arling- ton, wildflower sanctuaries at the Suit- land Bog and at other points of great botanical importance, bird sanctuaries, possibly an experimental forest and, in particular cases, the sites of his- Have You Seen 6000 59,750.0&:”2:0' tors EWire Pres g Investment B: Main 2002 Wire Built Means Well Built statement he is expected to make when all the responses have been re- celved.

TIMBER CONTRACT HEARINGS TO END Fight Over Deal Made in Oregon by the Forest Service. By the Associated Press. -Hearings on the proposed cancella- tion of the timber contract between Fred Hertick and the Forest Service for a tract in Grant County, Oreg., have been ordered to be concluded by tomorrow by Chairman Stanfield of | the Senate public lands committee. W. B. Greeley, chief of the Forest Service, was examined again yester- day, along with Frank J. Kilobucher, an ‘employe of Herrick and former Forest Service official, who is charged by Grant County citizens with collu- sion with Herrick. Klobucher testified that Herrick had spent about § 0,000 in the construc- tion of a railroad and in other work on the timber tract. He said he did not know Herrick until after the latter had signed the contract with the For- est_Service. Klobucher declared that E. W. Barnes, who is prosecuting the case against Herrick before the commit- tee, had “‘obstructed the work on the tract and attempted to create false sentiment against Herrick.” DR. R. H. BOLLING DEAD.
