BRITAIN AND JAPAN " T0 DISCUSS ACCORD Nations Will Seek to Consolidate Relations by Better Un- derstanding. By the Associated Press. LONDON, August 8.—An authorita- tive source disclosed today that diplomatic discussions between Great Britain and Japan on various political, economic, and naval matters will be | inaugurated in Tokio this Autumn with the arrival there of Sir Fred- erick Leith-Ross, British finaacial expert. These plans for discussion were interpreted in informed quarters as new evidence of the efforts of the two governments to consolidate their rela- | tions further by a better understand- | ing of the problems and aims of each | in the Far East. Sir Prederick will sail Saturday on the steamship Empress of Britain for Canada, en route to China. There he will make an economic survey for Great Britain and consult Chinese officials. He is expected to break his journey at Tokio in order to participate “in discussions there. It was understood there will be no formal conference but that Tsuneo Matsudaira, the Japanese Ambassador to Great Britain, who is home on leave, will participate. F. E. R. A Officials Determined to End Direct Relief by November. By the Associated Press. Expressing renewed determination to end Federal contributions toward direct relief by November 1, F. E. R. A. officials said today they would cut three States off the dole September 1. The officials, who preferred not to | be quoted by name, said similar action is planned for eight additional States September 15 #nd 30 others October 1. Refusing to name the States in advance, they said they would be selected according to progress in trans- ferring unemployable relief clients to State and local governments and in getting work projects underway. Apparently preparing for this step, Harry L. Hopkins, the relief admin- istrator, has granted direct relief funds to 13 States only for the first balf of August. It was repeated officially that the main difficulty in liquidating F. E. | R. A. has been ending Federal assist- ance to those on relief who are unable to work. These numbered 4,000,000 when the present effort to transfer them to State and municipal care began. CHIMNEY CRASH ON BED HURTS 1 OF 3 CHILDREN Collapse of a brick chimney at 414 I street early today on a bed oc- cupied by three sleeping colored chil- dren resulted in the injury of Rob- ert Valentine, jr, 7, who was cut about the leg and arm. Robert was sleeping near the wall with his brother Randolph, 9, and sister Eloise, 5, when the chimney collapsed onto his right side. His parents, asleep in the same room, pulled him from the wreckage and rushed him to a neighborhood phy- sician for treatment. A hole about 4 feet square was torn in the chim- ney side, hurling bricks and plaster.

Now, at 55, Col Hotchkiss proudly asserts he has topped the the District of Columbia—and by the time he is 60, will have climbed them At present Col.

He was born at a little farm- house in their midst and reared on their slopes until the age of 15, in | Bradford County, Pa. Even as he had been lured at an early age to the mountain tops near | his birthplace, his lust for adven- | ture took him away from home at 15. A year later he enlisted with the Army and was off for the Span- ish-American War. Then came other days, after his enlistment term, in | which he was awarded a bachelor | of laws degree at college, returned for active service in the Philippine THURSDAY, Insurrection, and finally that easy chair on his Portland home porch, almost in the shadows of majestic, snow-capped Mount Hood. Day after day, week after week, “the old man of the mountains” stared at the stateliness of the nearby range until he no longer could resist the temptation to become— temporarily at least—a part of the serenity, peace and beauty it repre- sented. Having rigged himself up in the necessary regalia, he was off. “And would you believe it,” he said, his eyes reflecting that far-away look back to the weather-beaten rocks and timber, “when I'd finished that climb I felt 10 years younger. Yessir,” he went on, “I'd like to take every man of you out there for a breath of that hearty air. But then not neces- sarily so far away, for you've many beautiful peaks, such as Mount Katahdin, Me,, and Mount Mitchell, N. C, right here in the East. I've climbed those, too, you know.” Congquest of Mount Hood. Col. Hotchkiss became a “mountain goat,” or, rather, a member of the Mazama Mountaineering Club of Port- land, which name stands for such, through his Mount Hood climb. Having long ago climbed most of the snow-capped peaks of the North- west, Col. Hotchkiss now is pro- gressively topping the lesser moun- tains east of the Rockies to complete his list. Other than the District of Columbia, his most recent trip was up the spruce-strewn sides of Mount Katahdin, which with Mount Mitchell vied for the title, “most wildly picturesque mountain east of the Rockies.” “Climbing is great sport,” the Army officer declared. Offsetting the actual hiking and sometimes hazardous climbing, is good fishing, undeniably marvelous outdoor meals, and that grand aroma of fir, pine and other trees. Many things of interest hap- | pen, too,” the colonel pointed out. “Once while climbing, and you may | | believe this, for it's true,” he added, | IJ[ ou want a cigarette that will be downrlght mild and actually good-_ tasting. then you have got to make it out of mild.ripe ‘tobacco ...1 smoke Chesterfield AUGUST 8, 1935. rattlesnake put its head up be- tween two rocks almost on a level with my guide and me, and but a foot or so away. It so happened my Indian guide, Kotachs, had a pair of large wire cutters in his hand, having just mended some tent equip- ment. Instinctively, without time to think, the Indian grabbed the snake about the neck with the cutters, killing it. And, belleve me, that was & thriller, because oefore the snake’s head was severed it wrapped its tail around Kotacha's wrisf He continued, “The ioftiest peak in the Unitea States. Mount Whitney, stretching 14,498 feet skyward, is with- ing 100 miles of the country’s lowest point—Death Valley, 276 feet below sea level, both in California.” In his Mount Katahdin guide, Col. Hotchkiss found a brother World War veteran. After hearing his story he promised to look up his records here 1o see if any bravery awards awaited him.

He had them sent the guide through the War Department. Col.
