ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, TUESDAY, JULY 31, 1928 PRICE FIVE CENTS KARPINSKI RECOUNTS' SEARCH FOR MAPS INS ARCHIVES OF EUROPEi LEAGUE SAYS THAT KELLOGG PACT WILL HASTEN WORLD DISARMAMENT RECALLS HIS EXPERIENCE SEEKING FOR AMERICAN MAPS ABROAD IN TELLS OF DIFFICULTIES Member Department of Mathematics Illustrates Lecture With Many Interesting Slides Many interesting tales of his experi- ences in searching for maps in Eu- rope were told by Prof. Louis C. Kar- pinski in his lecture on "Maps of America in European Archives" de- livered yesterday afternoon in the Natural Science auditorium. Al- though Professor Karpinski is a mem- ber of the department of mathema- tics, he has spent a great deal of time in the study and collection of map materials, and has achieved recogni- tion as an authority in this field. The speaker referred to the maps in the William L. Clements library as having some very complete collec-, tions of early American maps. "In the Clinton papers, which the library secured a few years ago, there were about 300 manuscript maps made for the British army headquarters dur- ing the Revolutionary War," he stat- ed. "These a~re very valuable, and many are without duplicates in the country." Turns To French Sources "Because of the abundance of American map material from British archives, and because the French field had been little explored, I de- cided to turn my efforts to a thorough inspection of the archives in the lat- ter country," he continued. "I dealt in my search only with maps preced- ing: the year 1800, and looked espe- cially for manuscript maps since they tend to be rare and more authentic. I found about 550 maps in the various great libraries of France including the Bibliotheque Nationale, the li- brary of the French War office, and the libraries of the departments of the colonies and the marine." Professor Karpinski told of the in- cidents that accompanied his quest in all these great manuscript store- houses. He had great difficulty in securing entrance to the library of the War department in Paris, it tak- ing several weeks before he had man- aged to finish all the red-tape. His Journey to Spain, in which he photo- graphed about 325 maps was ajso at- tended with many difficulties, he said. Impressed With Treasures He was particularly impressed with the magnificent treasures in the pal- ace of the Duke of Alba where he went in search of a certain old map. "Beautiful paintings, tapestries, and decorations of all sorts are to be found in this ancient palace in great- er profusion than even in the palace of the King of Spain," he declared. By .J. E. SHARKEY (Associated Press Correspondent) GENEVA, July 30.-The League of Nations has embraced the Briand- Kellogg anti-war treaty uncondition- ally. League officials see in it the end of American isolation and the be- ginning of real progress toward dis- armament. "There will never be another meet- ing of the League's preparatory dis- armament commission," said a prom- inent diplomat and friends who heard him were astounded. He explained his blunt statement by saying that the nations of the' earth would never bind themselves to an official, international agreement to keep their armaments at a certain low level. Careful inquiry has disclosed that the best informed diplomatic opinion in Geneva shares this view. Eleipen- tary instincts toward self preserva- tion, they say, will prevent wholesale disarmament. League circles believe that a world conference will be called this fall to sign the pacts "outlawing war." Once this is done they believe that progress toward disarmament can be made quietly and logically, without the ballyhoo which has accompanied previous efforts to reduce armies and navies. Present world opinion, they declare, is strongly against heavy armament and most nations would be only too eager to swing the axe on defense from the desires of the public In the FACULTY TO PRE'SENT CONCERT, TOMORROW various countries, but that it can never be forced on the world public as a whole by a collective or, interna- tional agreement. In short, collective disarmament is called a delusion. The hesitancy with which the Con- gress of the United States approves what Washington has styled a mod- expenditures, once they could feel secure. In other words, the opinion is that limitation, or reduction of armaments, will logically and inevitably spring erate naval building program is re- marked upon here as evidence that national public opinion, expressed through national legislators, will be slow to counsel any big construction of armaments in time of peace. The plan of France to reduce its service of army conscription from .eighteen months' to one year for all recruits is cited as another straw which indi- cates that the force of armaments is expanded, or reduced, in proportion to the feeling of national security.
