WARSHIPS 0 BEAR NAVY HERD NAMES Dewey Among Those Consid- ered for Honor by Eleven . Destroyers. By the Associated Press. The honor roll of America's naval heroes is being scanned at the Navy Department in search of worthy names for the 11 new destroyers on which | work will begin this Summer, Among the names considered is that of Admiral Dewey of Manila Bay fame. | It was said the Navy never has had a £hip of war perpetuating his memory, | although there are destroyers chris- | tened for his contemporaries, Sampson and Schley. The recent decommissioning of ob- eolete destroyers removed from the seas | may a name great in American naval | annals. The opinion was expressed that the titles of some of these old vessels | would be passed on to the new ones. Hero of Mobile Bay. One of the best known is that of Farragut, who fought in the War of 1812 at the age of 11 and reached the height of his career at the battle of Mobile Bay. Also being scrapped are destroyers which bore the names of more modern | heroes—Charles Ausburn, native of New Orleans, radio electrician, who stuck to | his key when the Antilles was torpe- | doed in 1917 and went down with his ship; Weeden E. Osborn, born in Chi- | cago. a dental surgeon, who was killed at Chateau Thierry while carrying a | wounded officer to safety: Hugh P Kidder, Marine Corps lieutenant, born in Waukon, Towa, who was kilied in France in 1918 after he and a small patrol had captured two machine gun positions, and Lieut. Willlam J. Shark- ey, born in Auburn, N. Y., killed in 1918 i in attempting to avert an explosion on a submarine. Names from American history no | longer carried by a ship include those | of Revolutionary figures, Mexican War sailors, Civil War heros, four early Sec- retaries of the Navy—Henshaw. Toucey. | Kennedy and Paul Hamilton—and others. Many persons throughout the country slready have asked the Secretary of the Navy to preserve the names of their favorite heroes.

One of First Signers of Agreement in " Switzerland. Ey the Associated Press. BASLE, Switzerland, July 6.—] re- sentatives of 34 countries, lnclufll:l’:pth! United States, signed an agreement to- day to create a Federation of Zionists, which will unite all general Zionists (Centrists) throughout the world. The first signatories, sald the Jewish Telegraph Agency, were Judge Julian W. Mack of the United States and Dr. 1e0 Motzkin, chairman of the Congress Presidium and of the Zionist Commit- e. Meer Grossman, English revisionist and vice president of the revisionist or- ganization, was tried by the congress court for having given to the press the contents of the white paper of October, 1930, before the document was offi- cially released. The decision will be announced tonight. ‘The Zionist executive contended that this action constituted a violation of confidence, breaking marty discipline and the misuse of an official document. Gross sald in defense that he felt it his duty to publish ,the contents prematurely because it would have given the British government an oppor- tunity to deny the contents of the pre- mature report, and thus cancel or mod- ify the white paper, and because he wanted to reach the general press first with a Jewish digest of the white pa- per, in order to precede the British digest, which sought to give the matter an innocent character.
