HAGE ET IL IN CAAINOE Frenchmen Crack up Near Siberian Town MOSCOW, July 14. - (A)- Dropped down in the middle of Siberia in their atempt tofly without stops from Paris to To- kio, Joseph Lebrix and his two companions planned tonight to come to Moscow by train. An unexplained accident to the motor caused their plane, the Hyphen, to crack up last night near the town of Nijni-Udinsk. Two of those in the aeroplane came down in pa.rachutes, the Pass agency reports. The third brought the plane to earth, where the motor fell out be- cause of the shock of the forced landing. One of the pilots, it was un- known here whether Lebrix or Marcel Doret, was injured in one leg, and the mechanic, Rene Mesnin, was slightly hurt on the head. WUELER DISCUSSES' CANCER RESERCH Pathology Authority Speaks on Three Causal Factors of Disease. "Cancer is curable if diagnosed early and complete cure results by its removal from the body," Pro- fessor Carl V. Weller, Professor of Pathology 'said in an illustrated lecture on the "Present Opinion on the Cause of Cancer" at the Natural Science auditorium yesterday. Cancer, which is a malignant organization of body cells capable of spreading, infiltration and de- veloping distant foci of growth, has three causal factors, Professor Wel- ler explained, and is probably due to the fact that the body has not been pub together correctliy, the embroyal factor, the intrinsic or the hereditary factor and the ex- trinsic or the mechanical, chemical thermal or radioactive irritation. Cancer is not believed to be caused by-any known parasite and is not infective. Neither diet, soil, or ground water have any influence on its incidence Professor Weller said. Bigge Will Give Talk Before Socialist Club "Challenge to Socialism" will be discussed by Professor G. E. Bigge hf the Economics Department of Brown University before the Mich- igan Socialist Club at the Union at 8 o'clock tonight. PETERSON TO TALK ONICELAND'S PAST Will Discuss History, Conditions at Present in Lecture This Afternoon. "Iceland yesterday and today" will be the subject of an illustrated lecture at 5 o'clock this afternoon in Natural Science auditorium by Professor Frederick W. Peterson, assistant professor of English. Professor Peterson lived in Ice- land during the summer of 1925 making an intensive study of the language, history and social con- ditions of the island and last year attended the one thousandth cele- bration of the Althing, the Ice- landic Parliament with a party of American delegates headed by Sen- ator Norbeck of North Dakota. "Iceland has made tremendous advances in recent years," Profes- sor Peterson said in an interview "and the lecture will cover some of the important scenic beauties o the island and the growth of inter- communication with Europe."

ASKS LEVELING DOWN' Potter Points Out Dangers of Plans for Pan-American Arbitration Board. Distinctions between the victors and the vanquished must be elimin- ated from the next disarmament agreement, William Arnold-For- ster told participants in the British. and American Students Conference7 on International Affairs at an open1 meeting last night.' The principle of arms limitation? should be the same for all states,' he said, and reduction must be a' leveling down, not up.' "The prohibition of certain war materials should apply equally to1 all states," Arnold-Forster asserted., This means that all weapons pro- hibited for Germany should be abolished in other nations, he said. Large battleships, air forces, heavy guns, tanks, and chemicals would; be included in this prohibition, he added. "It is a fantastic situation," Ar- nold-Forster asserted, "that the, United States, England, and Japan. should hve preparations for a war, that they agreed not to fight," he said. Arnold-Forster pointed out that the peace movement is, for the first time, in a position to submit a program for limitation of arma- ments and international arbitra- tion. Prof. Pittman B. Potter, of the University of Wisconsin, discussed the weaknesses of the Pan-Ameri- can Union, which, he said, is neither a rival nor an assistant to the League of Nations. Before the governing board of the Union can stimulate effective ac- tivity, Professor Potter said, its composition must be changed. Settlement of the arbitration convention, which has been virtual- ly pigeonholed by failure of the United States to take action, pre- sents serious dangers, he stated. "Undoubtedly, the influence ogf such a settlement might be detri- mental to world arbitration," he as- serted.

Institution Open. on * * * Head of Reichs bank Secures .New Credit DRIVE HELD CRUCIAL Lack of Funds May Necessitate Closing of Final Sessions. Fifteen small boys from the Uni- versity Fresh Air camp will be sta- tioned at various points about the campus and State street with tags to sell today. It is the annual sum- mer tag day sponsored by the camp to get money for running expenses. This year it has been declared more important than ever, for the d camp is feeling the depression and will have to close early unless ad-, ditional funds are raised. S. C. A. Is Sponsor. The Fresh Air camp is main- tained by the University under the auspices of the S. C. A. for under- privileged boys who come from Ann Arbor and Detroit. They are se- lected by various social agencies and are sent out, one hundred at a time, for two weeks of vacation in the outdoors. Last summer, the camp ran five of these two-week sections, taking care of five hun- dred boys. This year, unless more funds are forthcoming from the tag day, it must close at the end of its third section, thus denying two hundred boys the chance to come out. For this season, everyone has been urged by camp officials to contribute as much as he possibly can for a tag. Sports Varied. "The benefits of such a camp for city boys, come of whom have never been at a lake before, are obvious," a statement by camp officials said. "They live out in the open in well- ventilated lodges. There is plenty of nourishing food-the average gain in weight for the two weeks stay, is two pounds to a boy. Ex- ercise in all forms, swimming, foot- ball, basketball, baseball; rowing, and hiking keeps them in good condition and teaches sportsman- ship. One hundred and seventy- five acres of wooded hills between two lakes give unusual opportuni- ties for nature study. Practically all of the native Michigan birds are inhabitants of the camp property." "Everything is done to give the boys a good time and make them appreciate the life of nature," the statement continued. "A rather in- tensive study of Indian lore is given for those who are interested. It adds to their appreciation of life in the open and teaches them many * interesting things about campcraft."

LONDON, July 14.-(A)-The ef-. fects of the German crisis were ap-g parent today throughout Europe.f The situation at a glance:i LONDON: British banks refusedd German currency. The stock mark-a ets closed weak. STOCKHOLM: Banks and hotels, refused to accept German currency e and it was feared that thousands of tourists would be stranded with- out funds, as the banks would not cash German checks. - VIENNA: The Mercur b a n kr which was controlled by the sus- pended Darmstaedter und Nationalf bank of Berlin, closed its doors.- The bourse suspended trading in Hungarian stocks for three days.- BUDAPEST: All Hungarian banks1 were closed suddenly, after a min- isterial conference, for three days. RIGA: The Riga International bank and the Bank of Libau sus-t pended with respect to current ac- counts and deposits. The Latvian cabinet guaranteed deposits in Lat- vian currency, but declared it could not be responsible for depos- its in foreign currency. BRUSSELS: Reports from the borders of Belgium and Luxemburg told of thousands of Germans who were crossing over with their cash. Luxumburg suspended its marks exchange. At Ostend many Ger- man holiday-makers were strand- ed. COPENHAGEN: Thousands of tourists were without money when hotels, chauffeurs, and shopkeepers refused to accept reichsmarks. BUCHAREST: Financial circles were distressed by the closing of the Dacia bank at Jassay with a $1,000,000 deficit. BERLIN, July 14-(P)-Dr. Hans Luther, president of the Reichsbank, this afternoon re- turned from his latest whirlwind credit-seeking trip to a Germany already acting. on the now wide- spread slogan, "Don't wait for otside help. Germany, save yourself." The Lufthansa plane that. brought D'r. Luther back from Basel made the trip in the fast time of three and one-half hours. Immediately after his arrival, the Reichsbank president hurried from Tempelhof airedrome to the chan- cellery where the reparations com- mittee of the cabinet already was in session. Need More Measures Meanwhile the government let it be known that yesterday's emer- gency decree closing all banks was only one in a series to be expected in the fight to halt panic, consoli- date the nation's credit strength, and preserve internal peace. It was considered likely that a federal commissioner with extra- ordinary powers to control foreign exchange would be resorted to. Just how vigorously the Bruen- ing government would have to act to preserve internal peace was a matter difficult to predict. The nationalist opposition, led by Alfred Huggenberg and Adolf Hitler, thus far has been talking only vaguely of "taking over responsibility." Despite reports that a large part of the nationalist funds were tied up in the collapse of the Darm- staedter und National bank, po- litical police were keeping close watch on the Hitlerites and also on the communists, although the latter were reportedly hoping that Hitler would first pave the way for them. Others Watched Tense though the situation is here, Germans were watching with closest interest the reaction of the suspension of the Darmstaedter und National in other countries, notably Austria, Hungary, Holland, Poland, Denmark, and Latvia. This evening the government is- sued a new decree supplementing the regulations of the bank holiday decree. It specified that the "holi- day" of German banks was to have the same legal status as the other bank holidays and provided that any period of grace ending during the holiday shall not be considered to have ended "till one week after the last bank holiday." Cabinet Contemplates Further Drastic Measures. OPPOSITION NOISY Financial Dictatorship Likely; Period of Grace Longer. Veteran Professional Crown in Uphill; Captures Fight at Mississagua. MVISSISSAUGA COUNTRY CLUB, Toronto, Ont, July 14-(RP)-The old showman, Walter Hagen, fought an uphill battle to conquer Percy Alliss, British pro at the Wannsee club in Berlin, by a single stroke in their 36-hole playoff for the Ca- nadian open golf championship to- day. "The Haig", after trailing Alliss by one stroke in the morning round with a 73 to the Briton's 72, shot a brilliant 68 for four under par in the afternoon, to win the title with a 36-hole total of 141. Alliss fol-' lowed his par-equaling morning round with a fine 70 in the after- noon, but it wasn't good enough. In the final analysis the ding- dong battle was decided on the thirty-fifth hole. Alliss had squared the match at the thirty- fourth by sinking a 35-foot putt for a birdie three. On the next hole, however, Hagen's second just failed to go down, and he sank a short putt for a birdie three with- out difficulty. Alliss' second had rolled to within a yard of the cup, but in this crisis the Briton's putt- ing touch failed and the ball rolled to one side of the cup, giving Hagen the one-stroke lead he needed so badly. All told, the match was all square no fewer than six times. Hagen started shakily and found himself r i , Y[STLRDAY ( American League New York 19, 1, Cleveland 2, 5. Detroit 12, Athletics 3.

National League NEW YORK, July 14-(IP)-American financial assistance was formally extended to Germany late today as the Federal Re- serve bank of New York agreed in association with other re- serve banks to renew its participation in the $100,000,000 credit to the Reichsbank, "subject to agreement to renew by the other participants in the credit." Prior to the announcement at the local bank, advices from Berlin had said that the credit in which the banks of England and France, the Bank of International Settlements, anc the iFederal Reserve shared equally, was being renewed for three uionths. The original expiration date was tomorrow. WASHINGTON, July 14-(A)-The State department received a telegram today from Ambassador Edge at Paris saying the French government felt the situation in Germany was "easier". Mr. Edge also said France was sending word to the Bank for International Settlements that it did not expect to collect the sums due it tomorrow in German reparations. Acting Secretary Castle pointed out the crisis in Germany would have been much more serious if the nation had not been relieved by the mora- torium proposal. "If the Hoover plan had not been accepted," he said, "other nations would be expecting to receive the pay- ments tomorrow, and Germany would have been unable to make Pittsburgh 9, 4, Phillies (second game 10 innings) Chicago 8, New York 4. 4, 3,I
