CONFERENCE AT YERAVDA PRISON Decisiotn of Five Noncooperation Chiefs May Determine Future of Their Country. PESHAWAR DANGER OVER Mrs. Naidu, Gandhi, Jewaharlal and Motilal Nehru Meet Vallabhai Patel. (By Associated Press) BOMBAY, Aug. 14.-Out of a re- markable gathering of captives to- day, held behind the walls of Yer- avada prison in Poona, may come decisions of the highest importance to the future of India. It was a strange meeting, with Mahatma Gandhi, leader, of the civil disobedience movement, the central figure. Around him were a woman lieutenant, Mrs. Sarojini Naidu, and three men who long have been prominent in National- ist activities-Pandit Motilal Neh- ru, his son, Jawarhalal Nehru, and Vallabhai Fatei. All are serving sentences for acts in connection with the noncooperation campaign. Talk to "Peacemakers." Part of the time their conversa- tions were extended to Sir Tej Ba- hadur Sapru and M. Jayakar, the unofficial "peacemakers," who are attempting to have the Nationalist movement held up._ The meetings today lasted five hpurs and no hint was given as to what happened, but Sapru looked grave when he emerged. Tomor- row morning the five Nationalists will meet again, with the two peace emissaries joining them in the af- ternoon. Viceroy Lord Irwin is backing the peacermove and authorizedthe transfer of the two Nehrus from Allahabad jail to facilitate the con- versations. Danger of Peshawar Over. News from the northwestern frontier was distinctly reassuring to Europeans tonight, and military men considered that immediate danger to Peshawar, the city which guards the Khyber pass and has been under siege by 10,000 hostile Adridi tribesmen, wasrover. While the Afridis are reported to be drawing away from Peshawar fol- lowing rough treatment from bombs of the royal air force, the British realize that disaffection may continue to spread among neighbors of the Afridis.

DAMAGE NOT ESTIMATED Governors of Ten States; Three Representatives of Others Attend Meetings. (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Aug. 14.-The groundwork for a farm relief drought relief organization made up of federal, state and county 1 committeees was agreed upon at the White House governor's confer- ence today with its immediate aim the prevention of livestock losses, assistance of needy farm families, and protection of public health. The conference was attended by governors of ten states and repre- sentatives of three other common- wealths and lasted more than three hours. ST. LOUIS PLANE REMAINS IN AIR (By Associated Press) ST. LOUIS, Aug. 14.-The en- durance plane, "Greater St. Louis," whirled over Lambert, St. Louis, field toward the 600-hour milestone of its record flight to- night. The plane and pilots, Dale Jackson and Forrest O'Brine, had made their home in the sky for more than 585 hours at 4:11 c.s.t. They had put the previous record, that of theaHunter broth- ers, a day and a half behind them. The champion sky riding avi- ators gave no intimation that they would turn from their ex- pressed determination to remain in the air for 1,000 hours, and the faithful motor of the ship showed no weakness. Jackson and O'Brine already have put in more than 1,000 hours of endurance flying, 440 hours when they established a world's record in July, 1929, and nearly 600 hours this year to regain the championship. They remained cheerful in their confidence of hanging up a record that will discourage all opposition.

Shrubs, which will orient the building to the landscape, will be planted in the fall, as will the ground cover on the slope in front of the build- ing. A perennial flower garden will be located on the south side and future landscape plans include the construction of a pool in the sunk- en garden between the wings on the terrace sloping to the Women's athletic field.
