HOOVER WILL PLAN- NAVY COSTS SLASH Secretaries and Officers to Join Rapidan Party Tomorrow. By the Associated Press. President Hoover will discuss the possibility of curtailing expenses of the naval establishment with Secretary Adams and other naval officials tomor- row at his. Rapidan camp. Secretary Adams is prepared to in- form the Chief Executive a saving of ‘about $7,000,000 was brought about this fiscal year due to conferences last Sum- mer at the Virginia camp. He is ex- pected to assure the Chief Executive a similar amount probably would be re- turned to the Treasury next year. The reductions are not expected by naval officlals to impair departmental effi- ciency. Bases to Be Abandoned. The curtailment is expected to come through rigid economy and the abandonment cf obsolete shore sta- tions. A general movement toward closer concentration of naval activities was instituted last year, particularly on the Atlantic Coast, an dthis is expected 1o be continued. Operations at a few stations were reduced in 1930 and economies were effected. In a White House statement yester- day it was said the Navy Department had been co-operating with the Presi- dent in his efforts to reduce expendi- tures and would continue to do so, despite published reports that officials were not optimistic over further reduc- tions. Gibson to Talk Arms. Besides Secretary Adams, Assistant Secretaries Jahncke and Ingalls, Ad- miral Pratt, chisf of operations: Maj.| Gen. Fuller, commandant of the Ma- rine Corps, and Rear Admirals McLean and Parsons will participate in the discussions. Ambassador Hugh Gibson to Belgium, & White House guest, is expected to obtain the naval officers’ views as to the arms conference in Geneva next year. Representative Simmons of Ne- braska is another guest invited. Wives of the married guests also will spend the week end at Rapidan. President Hoover already has dis- cussed means of reducing Government expenses with War, Interior, Post Office and Agriculture Department officials and plans have been made for curtail- ments. Diminutive Girl Pilot in Los Angeles Now to Receive New Craft. Hopes to Fly to New York at Once Preparatory to Flight for Paris. By the Associated Press. LOS ANGELES, June B5.—Laura Ingalls, diminutive New York girl fiyer, soon will take delivery of a big mono- plane in which she hopes to be the first woman to pilot a lhlg across the At- lantic, a projected flight she announced recently in the East. Miss Ingalls arrived here this week to test out the ship, which will be similar to the craft Miss Ruth Nichols will use in an Atlantic fiight this Summer. Within a week Miss Ingalls hopes to bave the plane in New York for final | tests, preparatory to a start soon after- ward from Newfoundland for Paris over the Lindbergh trail. " Hasn’t Named Ship. “I don’t want to do a lot of talking and no flying,” she said in commenting on her plans. “I don’t want to start in my new ship until I have had some practice at the uickly as possible and e as quickly as e an up the situation. If Miss Nichols beats me to it I can’t help it. 5 ship—I haven't named it and don’t care to have any trick names painted on it—will carry 660 gallons of gasoline. I will not carry a radio. The ship will not have pontoons for I haven't made any preparations to land juntil T get to Paris.” | Practicing Blind Flying. The ship is a Lockheed air express, It differs from Miss Nichols' eraft in that the. pilot sits in an open ecockpit instead of in the cabin. Both shi] have 425-horsepower motors, but streamlining possible in Miss Ni plane gives it a speed of about 35 miles faster than the ship Miss Ingalls will use, or about 210 miles an hour. Miss Ingalls, who has made several transcontinental flights, safd she re- cently had put in many hours blind fiying. — Italy’s supplementary trade agreement with Russia calls for a greatly increased importation into Russia of a large vi | riety of Italian manufactured goods. “YESL.
