and Nick Greener.
After a long rest Robbins and
Jones announced they would use
the Forth Worth for their second
attempt, but would install a largerr
engine. They said the same tri
motored ship would be used for re-
fueling.
In explanation of the sudden ter-
mination of their flight, RobbinsI
said the Fort Worth had become
unwieldy after 300 gallons of gas
had been taken aboard in high
winds.
It was impossible to hold the
monoplane in contact with the re-
fueler, he said, to take aboard suf-
ficient gasoline to complete the 3,-j
000-mile flight to Japan. The othert
refuelings near Fairbanks and ont
the way to Norton sound had been
successful.v
The Fort Worth had been in theJ
air in test flights before leaving theo
United States with a capacity load
of 435 gallons which the flyers hadn
planned to take aboard from their4
refueler over Siberia. -
Several attempts were made to
fill the Fort Worth's fuel tanks
above Nome, but the weight of the
gas and the high winds baffled
them, Robbins said. A larger en-_
gine in the Fort Worth, he said, p
would have prevented the trouble.5

MISSISSAUGA COUNTRY CLUB,t
Toronto, Ont., July 10.-(P-The
old master, Walter Hagen, toured
around Mississauga's layout in 68
strokes on the second round of the
Canadian open golf championship
today to blast his way into the lead
by a single stroke..
Hagen's 36-hole total of 136, rep-,

resenting a pair of 68's, was just
good enough to nose out John Far-
rel of New York, former United
States champion, who added a 68
today to his 69 of yesterday for a
total of 137.
Farrell was on the line all the
way, hitting his tee shots down the
middle of the fairways and his ap-
proaches dead to the pin. Hagen,
on the other hand, was in frequent
trouble, but saved himself by some
magnificent recoveries and his fine
work on the greens.
Back of these two leaders trailed
Percy Allis of Germany, whose 67
in the first round had given him
the lead on the field. Allis slipped
to a 71 today for a total of 138.
Tommy Armour, defending cham-
pion, put together rounds of 68 and
'72 for 140.

SOFT COAL MIINERS
SEEK HOOE'S AID
Union Members Parade Before
White House; Operators
Confer With Doak.
WASHINGTON, July 10. (')-The
distressed situation in the bitumi-
nous mining industry has been
brought to the attention of the fed-
eral government by both operators
and miners.
Members of the National Miners'
union paraded in front of the White
House shortly after operators of
three states had concluded a leng-
thy conference with Secretaries La-
mont and Doak.
The operators and the chiefs of
the commerce and labor depart-
ments failed to agree on a general
coal conference of all elements of
the industry. Secretary Lamont an-
nounced later that "little could be
accomplished" at this time.
The parading miners were pre-'
vented from halting in front of the

executive mansion and banners
they carried were seized by police.
Frank Borich, secretary of the
union, however, presented to Theo-
dore Joslin, one of President Hoo-
ver's secretaries, a protest against
the conference between the two
cabinet officers and the mining
operators.
Borich handed Joslin a petition
which said the union wished to
"protest against this conference as
a conspiracy of the Hoover-Mellon
government, the operators and the
United Mine Workers of America to
break the present strikes of the
miners in Pennsylvania, West Vir-
ginia, Kentucky, and Illinois."
Although operators who attended
the conference declined to discus
the proceedings, Sec'y Lamont in a
formal statement said 'many of thf
operators held the view that little
could be accomplished of advantagE
to the public, the industry or th
workers engaged in it by the sunm-
moning of a national coal confer
ence at this time."

DIOD INS O EXPECTS p
BATTLE ON TARIEFF
Democrat Promises An Earnest
Effort' for Reduction in e
Reply to Watson.
' C
LITTLE ROCK, Ark., July 10. (P) t
-Senator Robinson, of Arkansas,a
Democratic state leader, today an-
swered a challenge of Senator Wat-
son, Indiana, Republican senaten
leader, by announcing that "an ear- h
nest effort" will be made to re-
duce tariff rates when Congress
convenes in December.
Senator Watson last night cha- w
lenged the democratic leader to "as-
sume the leadership in a fight to d
make a serious revision of the pres- d
ent tariff law."
"I feel justified in replying," Sen- l
ator Robinson said here today,n
"that when Congress convenes anu
earnest effort will be made to re-a
duce tariff rates, which, in the R
sound judgment of business men
and economists, have tended to re-r
strict foreign markets for Americann
products and to inspire retaliatory
measures on the part of foreignP
countries."e
Commenting on the Democrat>
leader's statement, Senator Smoot,
Republican, Utah, one of the auth-t
ors of the Hawley-Smoot tariff act,4
said in Salt Lake City that he doess
not think a revision of the tariff
will be made at the coming sessionk
of Congress.

GERMANY SEEKS

Reich Upheaval Feared
as Paris Demands
Concessions.
WASHINGTON, July o. (P)
-America added impetus to the
world disarmament movement to-
night by wholeheartedly accept-
ing a formal invitation to attend
the League of Nations general
disarmament conference' which
s to be held next February.
On instructions of President Hoo-
ver, the American government dis-
patched a note to' the Secretary-
General of the League, indicating
full participation by the United
States and complete co-operation
with the movement.
The note was signed by acting
Secretary Castle of the State De-
partment and 'was communicated
to the League by High R. Wilson,
American minister to Switzerland.
Hans Luther in France.
PARIS, July 10. (P)-Hans Luth-
er, President of the German Reichs-
bank, spent the whole day going
back and forth between the Bank
)f France and the Finance minis-
ry seeking French participation in
a $400,000,000 loan to Germany.
For nearly three hours he talked
with Clement Moret, the gover-
nor of the Bank of France, then
he conferred with Pierre Flandin,
minister of finance, had luncheon
with a half a dozen financiers, and
wound up the day in conference
with Premier Laval.
He was as uncommunicative to-
day as he was in London yester-
day, but it was understood that he
s seeking first advances equiva-
ent to the sums by which Ger-
many's budget will be lightened
under the Hoover moratorium
amounting to about $385,000,000
which would be repaid in monthly
installments; second, he wants a
renewal of the $100,000,000 one-
month loan made by the Bank of
England, the Bank of France, the
Federal Reserve Bank of the Unit-
ed States, and the World Bank at
Basel, which falls due next Thurs-
day; third, he would like to extend
that loan and increase it by $200,-
000,000; and fourth, he is said to
seek a one or two year loan of
$400,000,000 for the gold discount
bank of Germany.
Situation Grave.
BERLIN, July 10. (I)- Official
Germany is making no attempt to
conceal the gravity of the situation
which has developed from Hans
Luther's visit to Paris ,where, ac-
cording to reports reaching here,
the French imposed political con-
ditions upon the granting of a loan
to the Reichsbank,
Chancellor Bruening' office was
a beehive today as conferences with
bankers, industrial heads, and po-
litical leaders, including U. S. Am-
bassador Sackett, followed each
other in rapid succession.
The political opposition is known
to be watching its opportunity, and
there is a feeling that only a good
excuse is needed to provoke a po-
litical upheaval.
No better excuse coUld be found,
the government is afraid, than sur-
render by Chancellor Bruening to
political pressure from France.
