BRUIENING, CURTIUS
ON WAY TO ROME
TO ISITMUSSOLINI
German Ministers Are Expected
to Thank Duce for Accord
on Hoover Paln.
WILL DISCUSS TARIFF
Two Statesmen Eager to Learn
Italy's Views on Coming
Arms Conference.
ABOARD ROME EXPRESS, Aug.
6.-(AP)-Germany's itinerant minis-
ters, Chancellor Heinrich Bruening
and Foreign minister Julius Curtius,
gave themselves up to t h e i r
thoughts today as they s p e d
through the German countryside
on their way to Rome to talk with
Premier Mussolini.
On the first of their two nights
aboard the train they caused dis-
appointment to their admirers at
several stations by retiring almost
immediately after leaving Berlin.
At Leipzig and several other places
newspapermen, cameramen and
small crowds of the curious had
awaited their arrival, but the sleep-
ing car porter assured them that
there was no chance of seeing the
travelers. When the train arrived
at Munich this morning, however,
a large crowd had a chance to wish
the statesmen well.
Will Thank Duce.
The Germans' first words on
meeting Mussolini and his foreign
minister, Dino Grandi, it may be
taken for granted, will be words of
thanks for his quick acceptance of
the Hoover war debt holiday and
his statements in favor of revision
of the peace treaties.
Bruening and Curtius have em-
phasized that their visit to Rome,
like that to London and Paris, will
be one of free interchange of ideas
and not of fixed topics for discus-
sion. Members of their delegation
have revealed, however, that they
will frankly ask Mussolini just what
his objections are to the proposed
Austro-German customs accord.
Much as Germany is concerned
about the German minorities in
ceded provinces and especially in
the South Tyrol, Bruening and Cur-
tius do not intend to broach this
subject unless Mussolini himself
opens the discussion. Should he
bring it up, however, they are ex-
pected to reiterate Germany's view
that minorities everywhere should
be given full opportunity to lead
their cultural and linguistic life un-
hampered though at the same time
living up to their duties as citizens
of the nation to which the territory
now belongs.
Will Ask Arms Views.
After their conferences with Sec-
retary of State Henry L. Stimson
and Prime Minister Ramsay Mac-
Donald, Germany's statesmen are
now anxious to learn Mussolini's
real views concerning the coming
disarmament conference. They al-
ready desire for the greatest pos-
sible measure of all-around reduc-
tion of armaments but they hope to
find out to what extent German
and Italian policy will coincide at
Geneva.
They are understood further to
desire certain revisions of tariff

schedules and to be prepared to
jneet similar Italian wishes in a
spirit of mutual accomodation.

SMEDLEY BUTLER TO END COLORFUL
MARINE CORPS CAREER IN OCTOBER

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.--()-The
spectacular career of Maj.-Gen.
Smedley D. Butler in the Marine
Corps will terminate Oct. 1.
Butler, who holds two Congres-
sional Medals of Honor and who
recently caused the United States
Government to apologize to Pre-
mier Mussolini of Italy because of
some of his remarks, has asked for
30 days leave of absence prior to
his retirement on that date.
IDAHO FOREST FIRE
DAMAGE INCREASES

Two Hundred Blazes, Many
Them Incendiary, Sweep
Northwest Area.

of

SPOKANE, Wash., Aug. 6.-(IP)-
Two hundred fires, many of the
worst ones reported by foresters to
be incendiary, caused damage to
mount today in Northwestern for-
ests.
A majority of crews totaling more
than 2,500 members were fighting
blazes which forest officials declared
were man-set. Secret agents of the
Federal forest service were in the
danger zone hunting persons they
believed have been igniting bone-
dry timber areas at widely scat-
tered points.
The Priest River Valley conflag-
ration, largest of the fires declared
to be incendiary, was lashed three
hours Wednesday by a hard wind.
Estimates of the area burned
ranged from 30,000 to 40,000 acres.
The forest office at Missoula,
Mont., reported the Deer Creek fire
in the Kootenai Forest was being
guarded by a reinforced crew of
1,169 men.
Five big blazes were raging in
Central Idaho. Fires alternately
threatened and subsided in terri-
tory north of here as winds
changed.
Sports XWoman
In order that the finals in both
the beginners and intermediate ten-
nis tournaments may be played off
by next Tuesday, the semi-finals
must be finished by next Saturday.
Scores of each round should be
recorded on the bulletin board in
the Women's Athletic building im-
mediately after the match has been
played.
For the last time, this afternoon,
the women's physical educational
department is sponsoring an out
door picnic-swim at one of the'
near-by lakes. Tickets may be pur-
chased for 50 cents until noon to-
day in Barbour gymnasium. This
will include the cost of transporta-
tion and supper as well as the lock-
er fee. Elizabeth Whitney, grad,
is in charge of the picnic.

The request was submitted Wed-
nesday to Maj.-Gen. Ben H. Fuller,
commandant of the Marine Corps,
and came from Quantico, Va., where
Butler is commanding the Marine
base.
Butler has served a third of a
century in the corps. He joined the
Marines during tne Spanish-Amer-
ican War, at the age of 16, and saw
action in Cuba, and distinguished
himself by his records in Mexico,
Haiti, and Philippines, Nicarauga,
China and in France during the
World War. He received many
honors, besides being one of four
men to have received two Congres-
sional Medals of Honor.
Retiring at 50 years of age, the
Pennsylvanian also had the dis-
tinction of becoming a brigadier-
general at the age of 39 and a
major-general when 48 years old.
Because of some remarks held by
Secretary Henry L. Stimson as dis-
respectful to Premier Mussolini,
Butler was slated for a court-
martial, when he apologized and
the proceedings were dropped. Re-
cently he has made many speeches
that brought him considerable pub-
licity, particularly when a Phila-
delphia radio station shut him off
for using alleged obscene language.
Among his exploits was his tenure
of duty as director of pulic safety
in Philadelphia, which terminated
after conflicts with the city admin-
istration.
Ethel M'Cormick
Gives Regulations
for League Party
"Because of the crowded condi-
tions of the ball room at League,
dances no one without a partner
will be admitted there tonight at
the League party," stated Ethel Mc-
Cormick, dean of women, yesterday.
"The stag line whicn was formerly
permitted resulted in confusion and
an excessive number of people for
dancing in the ball room. Guests
will be introduced in the Grand
Rapids room by special commit-
tees."
"In answer to numerous ques-
tions concerning the matter," Miss
McCormick continued, "there seems
to be the misunderstanding that in-
troductions are for the entire eve-
ning instead of for a single dance
as they are intended. Introductions
will be made for every dance in
the Grand Rapids room and couples
may return there with their part-
ners after each dance if they so
desire."

GERMANY TO VOTE
ON DISSOLVING DIET
Weather May Exert Important
Affect on Result of Thrust
at Bruening Regime.
BERLIN. Aug. 6. - (RP) - The
weatherman will play a vital and
perhaps a deciding part in Sunday's
Steel Helmet plebiscite for the dis-
solution of the Prussian Diet.
The extraordinary thing about
this thrust at the Bruening Gov-
ernment-particularly to Ameri-
cans, accustomed to "get out the
vote"-is that the pro-Government
press and all organizations favoring
the present regime are urging the
Prussian voters to forget about the
ballot box and go fishing.
The official Prussian press bureau
even is advising voters who fear
that failure to show up at the polls
may cost them their jobs or broken
windowpanes to fool their Nation-
alist bosses and Communists neigh-
bors by casting blank ballots.
What Chancellor Heinrich Bruen-
ing and all other opponents of the
plebiscite really hope for, however,
is splendid weather for Sunday.
Pro-Government circles know that
it will be very hard but not neces-
sarily impossible for the Commun-
ists and the Nationalists opposi-
tion to round up the required thir-
teen million ballots.
If the weather is good and all dis-
gruntled citizens who might be
tempted to vote with the radicals
go out for an outing, the plebiscite
will automatically be doomed to
failure. For the law specifies that
a majority of all qualified voters in
Prussia must go to the polls and
vote yes and opponents are under
no obligation to turn out and vote
no.
