LEU BUTTLE TG BE ITASSED OVER NORTHCLIFFEWILL ' ■ \ London Newspaper Declares Two Instruments Disposing of Estate Left. SCRAMBLE ON FOR TIMES Friends of Lloyd George Are Attempting to Cain Organ’s Control. By RALPH H. TURNER United Xeirs Staff Correspondent LONDON, Aug. 2S.—Sensational developments affecting the disposal of the huge publishing enterprises of the !te Viscount Northcliffe, including the future of the powerful London Times, are now promised. Assertions that the great publisher left two wills, one executed shortly before his death, led to predictions that a bitter legal fight will be made for control of the Northcliffe newspapers and periodicals. _Until now reports regarding the future of the Northcliffe properties liave been little more than Vleet St. gossip. But in two Sunday newspapers—Lord Riddell's News of the World, and J. L. Garvin’s Observer—definite assertions are made. Lord Riddell’s journal declares that Lord Northcliffe left two wills, the first dated March 22, 1919, with four codicils added later. "But it appears that shortly before T.ord Northcliffe's death, he executed another will in which Lady Northcliffe was made the sole executrix,” the News of the World says. Executors named in the first will, it is stated, have offered it for probate “on the ground that the testator was of unsound mind at the date when the second will was executed.” This Is a question which will be decided in court. A writ of summons has been issued commencing suit to determine which of the two testaments are to be admitted for probate. Regarding the scramble for control of the London Times, J. L. Garvin, writing in the Observer, suggests that friends of Lloyd George are making a strong bid to obtain control of that newspaper as an organ for the Prime Minister. "The insistent rumor is that the man who will get the Times is Sir William Barry, owner of Cassell’s publishing firm and the Sunday Times, the latter a consistent follower of the Premier,” the Observer 6tates. Among other bidders for the Times mentioned by Garvin are Lord Beaverbrook, proprietor of the Daily Express; Sir Mackay Edgar, and a number of dark horses, possibly including foreign interests. The minimum price mentioned in connection with the Times is $2,250,000, Garvin states.

Radio Will Play Important Part in Future Warfare , Experts Say

THE AIR PILOT, THE MACHINE GUNNER, THE SEAMAN IN FUTURE WARFARE MAT BE A RADIO OPERATOR SAFELY DISTANT FROM THE SCENE OF OPERATIONS.

War, in the future, will be like an old-time Fourth of July celebration. Thanks to radio. Cannon will be thundering as of old, bombs will be bursting, machine guns, tanks, airplanes, battleships and all other instruments of warfare will continue their destruction of enemy property. No longer will they endanger human lives—unless one happens to be in the way. But no life will be in the way, because those controlling these weapons will be safely distant from the scenes of operations. Instead of loading the guns or manning the tanks, airplanes and battleships, our soldiers and sailors of the future will be radio operators. Sitting at panels, with tubes, coils and dials before them, they will control the firing at the front just as though they were actually in the thick of the fight. Only, instead of a company of men there will be one man—the radio operator controlling the operations of a whole ‘company of weapons.” Impossible? lowa Test Explained More than a year ago the Navy Department demonstrated the prao ticability of controlling the movements of a battleship by radio. Their subject was the old battleship. lowa, of Spanish war fame. Ail its moving parts were radio-equipped before the vessel was put out to sea.

All that man had to do on the battleship was start the oil burners and the engines. Then, without a man on board, the ship sailed forth off the Virginia capes. It was under the control of the radio operator on the battleship Ohio, five miles away. • For hours this ship was maneuvered Into all sorts of positions fnd at various speeds—by the radio operator, five miles away! No gun was fired, but naval engineers at the time expressed the belief that this could be done by radio just as easily as the ship’s movements were controlled. On the basis of this experiment, a whole fleet of radio-controlled warships can be imagined. Mine-layers, submarines and even the destructive torpedo could be directed by radio. In fact, John Hays Hammond. Jr., famous inventor, has already perfected a wireless control of torpedoes which virtually chases down the enemy submarine. On land, as well as at sea, radio could be effective. Bombs could be dropped from manless airplanes. Guns could be exploded at will by operators miles behind the firing line. Manless tanka could raid enemy territory and destroy enemy property. Here again, this possibility has been I demonstrated. Capt. R. E. \ aughn of I the U. S. aviation service has been working on a radio-controlled tank

which, with radio-controlled machine guns on board, could be used as a dangerous weapon in war. One danger to human life may remain. That is when, during calm intervals at night, men will have to come out to the front to inspect the weapons and prepare for the next day’s fighting. But victory will depend, not on the killing of men, but on the destruction of enemy weapons and property. GRANTS REHEARING Service Commission Will Again Take Up Track Paving.

HERBERT HOOVER AS REPARATIONS UMPIRE FAVORED British Press Is Enthusiastic Over Suggestion of James M. Cox. AMERICAN AID WELCOMED Express Warns That Europe’s House Must First Be Put in Order. Bp United Netcß LONDON, Aug. 29.—The British press has seized with enthusiasm on the suggestion that Herbert Hoover be made a virtual umpire in the reparations controversy which is threatening to split the allies. This proposal, put forward by James M. Cox of Ohio, former Democratic presidential candidate, is welcomed as a way which the United States could help pull Europe together once more. Hoover would be a highly satisfactory choice for American representative, press comment indicated. "Such a suggestion from a man usually regarded as a leader in the Democratic party shows a real desire to come, to tie assistance of Europe," the Times ®ys. “We trust it may strengthen the wiser counsels of Europe before it is too late.” Former Governor Cox’s statement, the morning Post declared, is “really a manifesto to the American people tejling thei ' that in ther own interests they must emerge from their post-war Isolation and turn once again toward Europe.”

“If the great weight of America, as represented by Herbert Hoover, were thrown on the side of sound policy,” the Chronicle says, “it would have the double effect of re-creating confidence in Germany and would help reconcile her creditors to the only scheme which the world’s finances would back.” The Daily News earnestly hopes the suggestion regarding Herbert Hoover wsl be acted upon as the decisions of the reparations commissions “must be lifted above the scramble of Interests where judgment is warped.” The Express warns, however, that if America's help is to be efficacious, Europe’s house must first be put in better order.
