Clarence ("Buster") Crabbe .of Los

zling afternon, but a freckled face
youngster from Florida was right on

These three,: with Swartz of thec
Illinois A.C., Ray Thompson of the
Naval academy, and Manuella Kali-9
li of Los Angeles, today definitely
became members of the swimming
squad of 21 that Uncle Sam willt
,take to the coming Olympics. Swartz,
Thompson and Kalili finished in or-.
der in the 100 meter free style. j
Flanagan was off after Crabbe .
with the gun in the 1500 meter. The -
"'record buster" pulled out in front :
on the first lap and about half way
had lengthened his lead to 12 yards.
He expanded it little thereafter.
But it was the fight between Jack1
Medica of Seattle, Wash., and Chris-,
ty,. for third place, that helped the;
limp spectators to forget the heat.t

Medica was far behind, but a greatj
closing spurt over the last 400 meters
brought him near enough to make a
real bid for the third place on the
team.,
Tomorrow, Olympic representa-
tives in the breast stroke and 200
yard free styl will be selected.
No record was ever in danger to-
day. Swartz finished in 50 1-5 sec.
in the 100. Crabbe consumed 20:19
1-5 in his third lap pull to first place
in the 1500 meters.

Simpson Memorial Ends
Fifth Year Qf Research

A widow's memorial to her hus-
band has proved of inestimable value
to hundreds of patients suffering
from a long dreaded disease, for
which satisfactory treatments have
only recently been developed.
The memorial is the Thomas
Henry Si{pson Institute for Medical
Research,\ which has just completed
its fifth year in operation. It was
five years ago today that Dr. Cyrus
C. gturgis assumed his duties as di-
rector of the organization.
An attack on pernicious anem-ia
is the basic purpose of the Memorial
and, since its operation was begun,
one method of treatment has been
greatly refined and an entirely new
preparation for. the cure ofr the dis-
ease has been formulated. Further
improvement of the two treatments
is the chief project at the present
time. More than 500 patients with
pernicious anemia have been stud-
ied.
Thp new treatmnent cor sists in the
administration of a powder formed
from dessicated, defatted hog's sto-
mach. An attempt is being made
to concentrate and study the vital
elements of this preparation which
is manufactured, under the trade
name of "Ventriculin," by P a r k e,
.Davis and company of Detroit. Each
batch of the product is inspected and
certified by the staff of the Institute.
Liver extracts form the principle
item in the other form of treatment.
This has been greatly concentrated
and is now administered intraven-
ously with greatly improvedresults.
The discovery that some of the liver
ingredients were of assistance in the
treatment of the disease was first
made about 1926 by a group of Har-
vard doctors but has since been
greatly refined and perfected.
The project began, in the mind
of the Detroit iron manufactUrer, as
a children's hospital. bften, before
his death from pernicious anemia in
1923, he had discussed this plan
with his wife, but shortly before his
death, he determined to leave this
entirely to the judgment of Mrs.
Simpson. It was she who determin-'
ed the ultimate character of the In-
stitute' for which she gave to the
MacDonald to
Cofer with
Irish President

University a fund of more than $40,-
000.
The site chosen, near the ,hospi-
tal, was the gift of Robert P. L-
mont, '91, and was originally plan-
ned for an addition to the Univer-
sity observatory. But the donor con-
sented that the land should be turn-
ed over to the new Institute.
The final offer of the funds and
the site was made to the Board of
Regents of the University on Nov.
20, 1924.
By the terms of the agreement,
"the activities of the Institute are
to be devoted, primarily, to the study
of pernicious anemia, the alleviation
of the suffering of persons afflicted
with that disease, and thediscovery
of a cure for the same." An addi-
tional clause provided that, should
a permanent cure for anemia be
found, the Institute would be turned
to an investigation of some other
disease, to be designated by a spe-
cial committee of the Medical school.
A constantly increasing reputa-
tion has come to the Institute since
it first began its project.,During the
first year of operation, 213 return
visits were recorded. In the fscal
year just concluded, more than 1,000
patients returned for treatment and
observation.
Hoover Denies
America Made
Pact 'on Debts
U. S. Will Not Be Driven
Into Any Acton by Lau-
sanne-Treaty, He Says
WASHINGTON, July 14.(AP)-=
President Hoover, in a letter to Sen-
ator Borah, of Idaho, said today
he, did not assume N the agreement
recently reached between European
nations was for the purpose of
affecting "combined action of our
debtors," but stated that if this
was the case, he did "not propose
that the American people shall be
pressed into any line of action."'
The President's letter discloaed
that Senator Borah had inquired of
the President through Secretary
Stimson, as to the effect on the Uni-
ted States of recent agreements in
Europe.
In reply, Mr.- Hoover affirmed that
the United States had not been con-
sulted regarding any of the agree-
ments reached at the Lausanne Con-
ference. ',
'U. S. Not Committed'
He said the United States was not
"in any way committed to any such
agreements" as were reached con-
cerning either debts or reparations.-
The letter follows in full:
"My dear Mr. Senator:
"I have your inquiry this morn-
ing, through Secretary Stimson, as
to the effect on the United States
of recent agreements in Europe.
"Our people are, of course, grati-
fied at the settlement of the strict-
ly European problem of reparations
or any of the other political or eco-
nomic questions that have impeded
European recovery. Such action, to-
gether with the real progress in dis-
armament, will contribute greatly to
world stability.

Vice-Presidnt Curtis IsT
Called Into Conference
With Local Official
WASHINGTON, July 14.-(AP)-
A series of. mind changing Acts byr
Congressional and police authori-c
ties this evening resulted in a com-i
pany of marines being dispatchedI
to keep order on the capitol grounds, i
where hundreds of bonus-seeking
veterans trudged wearily back andc
forth, but in the end the ex-soldiersr
were left as before.f
The marines were withdrawn al-t
most immediately and their pres,
ence was called a misunderstanding.
Vice-Rresident Curtis, Speaker Gar-
ner, Rear-Admiral Henry V. Butler,t
commandant of the local n a v yt
ards, and police superintendentG
Glassford then conferred at length.
The upshot was that Glassford or-
dered the capitol grounds cleared.E
Demonstrators Continue k
Before he could get reinforcements
to put the order in effect, Senatorr
Bingham (R., Conn.), interceded,c
Glgssford reversed the orderi and
permitted the long, weary trudging
of the demonstrators to continue asc
it had for two nights and two daysa
past. The men were not allowed tot
lie down but were kept on the movec
by blue coats.i
They sang and chatted as they
walked, a .group of them at intervals
slipping off to rest a while just offI
the capitol premises.
Hoover Word Intimated
There was a fairly strong intima-I
tion that Senator Bingham had beenr
in touch with President Hoover be-I
fore he approached Glassford. Thef
police heads' statement to Vice-Pres-t
ident Curtis that he had not enoughr
police to keep up the strong guardI
around the nation's legislative tem-
ple had led to the call of the mar-I
ines.
Prohibitionists,
Deciding Stand
On Candidates
WASHINGTON, July 14.-(AP)-
The national prohibition board of
stragety today placed upon a com-
migtte the task of drafting a state-7
ment 6f policy upon which its mem-
ber organizations may unite in vig-
orous defense of the 18th amend-
ment during the coming political
campaign.
The foremost question to decide
was whether the board would en-
dorse Herbert Hoover for re-election,
or await a statement of the chief
executive's personal views on repeal
before taking such action or refrain
from any endorsement and simply
provide those interested with a
statement of the candidates' atti-
tudes and recordson the prohibition
question.
Duplicity Charged to
Hitlerites, Nationalists
BERLIN, July 14.-(AP)-Charg-

ing the Hitlerites and the National-
ists with duplicity for permitting
the Von Pape Cabinet to carry on
a foreign polity of international rec-
onciliation which these parties once
opposed violently, the Social- Dem-
ocratic Party is appealing to the
voters to fight to the finish "for
Democracy and Socialism" in the
Reichstag election on July 31.
The Socialist Party, which rep-
resents the bulk of Germany's la-
boring class, was surpassed by Hit-
ler's Nationalists as Germany's larg-
est political party in the Diet elec-
tions of May. In Berlin, however,
it nosed out the Communists for
first place.
While it never had a followingas
large as Hitler's, the party took the
reins of Government in hand after
the evolution, assuming the task of
making Germany a democracy.

To Overthrow Willingly,

Manuel Azana Is Termed
Great Man of Present
SpanishRepublic
Contrary to the reports of foreign
newspapers, King Alfonso of Spain
did not submit willingly to the man-
ifestation F a g a i n s t the Monarchy,
Prof. Antionie G. Solalinde declaed
in a lecture yesterday.
Professor Solalinde was closely
connected w i t h the Republican
movement in Spain, and was exiled
from his native country for partici-
pation in anti-monarchist work.
Continues Efforts
Alfonso did everything within his
power to arouse the army to his sup-
port, continued Professor Solalinde,
ven after he had embarked on his
warship on his way into exile.
The popular sentiment was too
strongly against him, however, and
even though the generals were still
behind the king, it was thought dan-
gerous to his safety to attempt any1
resistance while he remained in theL
country.
"The really 'great man of the pre-l
sent -Republic is Manuel Azana," de-r
clared Professor Solalide. Azana is
a writer of second rank, but before1
the change in government he wast
comparatively unknown. He came
into the limelight when h took pos-
session of the ministry of war on theY
same night in which the Republicj
was proclaimied.t
Retains Army Officers t
More than 23,000 army officerst
had been retained by Alfonso-
mostly for political purposes and
without any duties-and Azana's1
first step was to reduce this number1
to 7,000 . Although criticized for his
violence, he is respected because het
had thought deeply about all the<
problems of present-day Spain and
has a fitting solution fo them. 1
Public offices today are filled by
the intellectual men of the country,
Professor Solalinde said. Foreign1
embassies have been filled with these1
men as well as home offies.
One of the first great Accomplish-
ments of the new regime was 'the
creation of 7,000 schools during the
first .year. Under, the old regime
only 11,128 schools were established
during the years between 1908 and
1930. Other. advancements along
educational lines have also been go-
ing along at a rapid pace.
The Republic has declared itself
not in favor of any particular reli-
gion, but is giving every individual.

sees fit, Professor Solalinde conclud-

WASHINGTON, July 14.-(AP)-
The modified unemployment bill was
jeopardized by a new conflict be,
tween the two branches of Congress
Which threatened to prolong the ses-
sion.
The $2,122,000,000,bill became en-
snarled 'in a dispute between the
house and the Senate out of which
some of the Congressional leaders
were fearful would emerge a com-
promise which President Hoover
might veto, preventing Congress
from adjourning this week.
House Stands Fast
Conferees on the bill broke up in
a disagreement over the House pro-
vision requiring publicity for future
loans by the Reconstruction Finance
Corp., and the deadlock was tight-
ened when the House, by a vote of
172 to 150, instructed its represen-
tatives to hold fast in the face of
Senatorial refusal to accept the
clause.
Leaders on both sides were hope-
ful the tangle could be straightened
out in time to send the $2,122',00,-
000 measure to the White House to-
morrow, and that Congress be ad-
journed Saturday.
Meanwhile, conferees wofking on
the -Administration-sponsored home
loan discouht bill, carrying a billion
dollar currency expansion rider,
neared a'i agreement. ,
An unprecedented tangle on pro-
cedure added to the confusion in
the relief situation, sending House
and Senate leaders scurrying to
their parliamentary experts for ad-
vice on how the bill was to be finally
passed.
Conferees went to work on the
bill early in the day, hopeful of
reachinghan agreement within an
hour. Three and a half hours later
they emerged from a Senate con-
ference room with word that little
progress had been made.

Compromise with
State; De Valera

Accepts Invitation

LONDON, July 14.-(AP)-Prime
minister R a m s a y MacDonald of
Great Britain has offered President
Eamon De Valera of the Irish Free
State an invitation to come to Lon-
don to discuss differences between
the two countries. It was understood
that Mr. De Valera had accepted the
ipvitation and would come to Lon-
don today.
The invitation to the' Republican
president resulted from a conference
at No. 10 Downing street last night,
when the Prime minister, lower
chancellor and the attorney-gener-
al discussed with William Norton,
chairman of the Free State party
and English labor leader.
Mr. MacDonald authorized Mr.
Norton to tell President De Valera
that if the latter wished to discuss
the situation the Prime Minister
would be happy to meet him iii Lon-
don. The Irish labor leader immed-
iately communicated with De Valera
who accepted the invitation.
Norton said after the conference
that he explained the "terms of a
suggested compromise" with Mac-
Donald but he declined to disclose
its details to the press.

Will Give an Illustrated
Lecture Tonightr
Tracing the cause of the difficulty
and describing the methods which
have been used, unsuccessfully, toE
solve the dispute between -Bolivia
and Paraguay, Prof. Jesse S. Reeves,'
head of the political science depart-
ment, will speak on the "Chaco Cn-
troversy" at 8 o'clock tonight in the
Natural. Science auditorium. The lec-t
ture will be illustrated. .-
The disputed area in the case is
about the size of the state of Cso-
rado and the contest has come upf
four times in recent years. It is
the largest area in the world todayt
that is disputed between two coun-
tries.
This lecture will be the sixth in
a series of public lectures sponsoredt
by the Conference for Teachers of1
International Law.
Professor Reeves, an authority in
the field of international law, has
done a great deal of work in South
America. In 1925 he was appointed1
by President'Coolidge as the United
States member of the Pan-American
Commission of Jurists for the Codi-
fication of International Law, and
traveled more than 16,000 miles on
this South American trip.
Al Smith May
Take Stump
For Lehman,
Former New York Gover-
nor Expected to Back
State Candidate
NEW YORK, July 4.-(AP)-"Al"
Smith' is likely to jump into his old
role of campaign spellbinder this
fall, but on behalf of the Democratie
gubernatorial candidate, rather than
the Roosevelt-Garner ticket.
Since ,his last public announce-
ment, "I shall support the Demo-
cratic party," there' has been much
speculation about what part, if any,
he will take in the campaign.
His omission of the names of Gov.
Roosevelt and Speaker Garner from
his statement of party loyalty led
to the supposition he would be more
a spectator than an actor in the
next act of the 1932 political drama.
But one of his close associates said
today that Smith has an active in-
terest in seeing Lieut. Gov. Herbert
H. Lehman nominated for the post
he himself held for four terms, and
then relinquished to Roosevelt.
If Lehman is nominated, it was
further stated, Democracy's 1928
standard bearer very possibly might
do some active campaigning for him.

Dash Tryouts
PALO ALTO, Calif., July 14.-
(AP)-The draw for heats in seven
feature events of the final Ameri-
can Olympic track and field tryouts,
made public unexpectedly today,
forecast a series of spectacular con-
tests in the preliminaries-tomor-
row.
The official attitude toward the
sprint favorites was indicated by,
the top "seeding" of Emmett Top-.
pino, of New Orleans, Frank Wy-
koff of Southern California, and
Ralph Metcalfe, Negro of Marquette,
in separate trials of the 100-meter
dash.
Toppino's leading foe in his first
test will be the former Michigan
Negro ace and present world rec-
ord holder at 100 yards-Eddie To-
lan. Wykoff's first trial spits him
against George Simpson, former
Ohio State star.
Metcalfe, - Tolan and Bob Kiesel
of California, are ,'seeded" in sep-
arate heats of the 200-meter dash
Tolan faces perhaps the keenest
opposition, with Hec Dyer, of the
Los Angeles Athletic Club, and Wy:

After a brief recess for lunch, they
went back to work again, but within
an hour broke up in a fast depd-
lock over the publicity clause.
Democratic leaders then w-e n t
back to the House and were sus-

it might be dangerous to make pub-
lic loans made by the reconstruction

After the House action, Senate
leaders took the question back to

Then the House messagede over
to the Senate a second relief bill

The House action in standing up-
