MAGIC GERMAN SHIP SCORNED BY U.S. EXPERT! Naval Engineer Blows Up 1 Talk of Speed-Wasp in Article. PICKS ON ENGINES Critic Says Any Nation Can Build Battle Vessel of Same Design. RY JOSEPH H. BAIRD I nit*d Prrs. Stft Cnrrr.pondrnt WASHINGTON. July 2—The Krsafz Preussen, new German battleship cruiser heralded last winter as combining the speed of a greyhound with the sting of a wasp, again was being discussed in naval circles today as the result of a derogatory article about the ship written by Captain H. C. Dinger, t ; aval engineering expert. Dinger’s study, published in the United States’ Naval Institute proceedings, picked the ship apart, viewed it through the eyes of an engineer, and found it wanting in many respects. The officer said he found “noth, ig magical about the vessel. ’’ x . “It is not quite possible to have • greyhound and a bulldog in one unit,’’ Dinger wrote, referring to German’s sacrifice of power in the new ship, made in order to gain an armament weight unusual for a 10,000-ton vessel. Omit Credit Cine Specifications of the German ship . were printed in a recent issue of the navy department's official engineering bulletin after being re- | vealed first by Hector Bywater, EngS lish naval writer. It was said the ship, limited by the Versailles treaty to a cruisei I weight of 10,000 tons, nevertheless, carried an armament of six eleven's inch guns, which makes her a small battleship. Her maximum speed | was given as twenty-six knots and ' her cruising range as 10.000 miles. .Referring to the Erstatz Pruessen tvpe the bulletin said: In fighting power they are greatly superior to B the treaty class of battleships, and it is difficult to see how any vessel other than a battle cruiser could deal with them. Possibly, therefore, the Erstatz Preussen eventually may necessitate some region of the treaty rules governm\t the time of its publication, the ; statement was considered an official pronouncement from the engineering division of the navy. Today it was explained, however, . that the article was reprinted from the Engineer, a London magaane end the credit line inadvertently was omitted. No Technical Restriction "There has been much comment, lin the press as to this wonder " ship” Dinger said, “which is to cause consternation in all the navies j and is heralded as almost the wo.k I ° "An examination of the alleged . characteristics from a dispassionate technical angle fails to show anything magical about the vessel.’’ iHe added German engineers, "without undue technical or financial restrictions." had achieved results -t which “might be produced in other under like conditions" I The Ersatz Preussen’s power is only half that of an American light cruiser, although its battery does not weigh more than half again as much, he pointed out. Referring to the welded hull, pointed out by naval critics as one of the outstanding means used to B reduce tonnage in the German ship. Dinger said: "There is nothing to prevent the fc United States navy or the English 4of French navies using welding as If extensively as it has been used in Up this German vessel. United States iwelding technique is. I believe, fully ,up to that employed in Germany." Just an Experiment ! Dinger discounted reports that ‘Germans had built highly efficient | developing one unit of (horsepower for each seventeen founds of weight. When the total machinery weight is added to the 4 actual engine weight, the power if plant's efficiency will be reduced by | half, he predicted. “Whether these Diesel engines \ will be as reliable as turbo-reduc- | tion gear remains to be seen,’’ he \_said. “It is possible, but from past . experience with Diesel engines, either German or otherwise, it is doubtful. i “The Ersatz Preussen will be a very interesting engineering experi;j ment and her actual operation will ano doubt serve to teach many lesisons. There appears to be no com}pelling reason for the large navies to rush in and build vessels of her particular characteristics."

EYESIGHT GONE, CHOOSES DEATH Watchman Kills Self When Blindness Loses Job. R’i r „;t, n CHICAGO. July 2.—Failing sight cost Frank Garthen, 74. his job as night watchman a few days ago, and it was with the greatest effort that he manipulated a pen as he sat in his small hotel room. On the reverse side of a “do not disturb” sign, Garthen scrawled in wavering capitals the following notice: “Dead man inside.” A porter, alarmed by the odd | notice on the outside of Garthen's I door, called the proprietor who entered the room and found the 1 old nightwatchman dead, with a . bullet through his brain. A note in the same crooked capi- | tais said: “Only SBO left. Use it for the funeral." SEAT TRADE HEADS Deluse Assumes Duties as Board Chief. Otto P.

I RIVER RECEDES, j AVERTS FLOODS Rises to 12.6 Feet: Repair Damaged Buildings. From a crest of 12.6 at 7 this morning, highest stage here since ! Jan. 20, this year, the White river | was receding today, eliminating the flood danger made imminent by the j downpour which accompanied Sun- ; day night’s devastating gale. While state, county and city road | and street crews reported debris ; cleared from highways and streets, | carpenters, masons and roofers were repairing hundreds of structures damaged by the storm. Power, light and telephone companies were completing repairs today. Many cottagers searched the banks of White river and Fall creek for boats carried away by the sud- , den rise of the streams. White i river's level this morning was within | two-tenths of a foot of the 12.8 | mark set Jan. 20. The upper part of the west fork of White liver reached a stage of | 13.7 at Anderson this morning, 1.7 feet above flood stage. At Noblesville the level was 12.7, near flood stage. Although there will be considerable rise downstream on the White river, southern Indiana will not be endangered by high waters, J. H. Armington weather bureau head said, because the Wabash did not get as heavy rainfall as centered over the White river and Fall Creek. Fair weather tonight and Wednesday with rising temperatures Wednesday was the forecast for Indianapolis today. BEATS LICENSE GRAB Union Official Gives Free Notary Service. M. H. Miller, legislative representative for the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, has taken up The Indianapolis Times’ idea of beating the drivers’ license notary “racket" and in going to local union meetings throughout the state has been giving free notary service to members. Monday Miller came to the office of Otto G. Fifield, secretary of state, with a letter from C. E. Ballam. Andrews. returning an application for drivers’ license, which Miller had notarized. with a letter stating that he had been refused a license at the licensing branch at Huntington. Fifield ruled that the Huntingi ton buraeu would have to recognise j Miller’s notarization, or any other, ! on applications properly made out.

BRITISH KING ASKS PACT TO REDUCE NAVIES Ruler Says New Talk With U. S. Offers Hope for Reductions. PARLIAMENT OPENED George Unable to Attend: Sends Message Outlining Peace Programs. BY STEWART BROWN United Press Staff Correspondent LONDON. July 2.—Conversations which have begun between Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald and Charles G. Dawes, United States ambassador, are the basis of British hopes for action toward an early reduction of international armaments, it was declared in King George's speech at the formal opening of the British parliament today. Because of the king's recent illness he was unable to deliver the speech in person. It was read instead by Lord Sankey, lord chancellor of Great Britain, before a joint session of the houses of parliament in the house of lords. A strong program for world peace and better relations with all nations was indicated. In the field of foreign relations, the proposals may be summarized as follows: 1. Early reduction of armaments throughout the world, in co-opera-tion with the dominions governments and foreign powers on foundations to be laid by naval conferences with the United States. Soviet to Be Recognized 2. Acceptance by Great Britain of compulsory arbitration of disputes by the world court. 3. Resumption of relations between Britain and Soviet Russia. 4. Evacuation of the Rhineland through acceptance of the Young reparations plan. In domestic and empire affairs, an elaborate program to relieve unemployment and stimulate industry was outlined. The principal points of domestic policy urged were: Relief of unemployment by stimulating transportation development; stimulation of Britain’s depressed export trade; relief of agriculture, and improvement of marketing facilities for farm and fisheries products, with further encouragement of the fishing industry. Greater migration overseas should be sought in co-operation with the dominions to relieve unemployment. The coal industry, which has been demoralized, should be reorganized. The iron, steel and cotton industries should be surveyed with a view to improving their position in world markets. The Washington hours-of-labor agreement should be made effective and slum clearance and housing projects undertaken. Liquor Survey Suggested The whole field of legislation relating to the supply and sale of intoxicating liquors should be surveyed by a royal commission. In view of the recent extension of the franchise to include all men and women of voting age, revision of the parliamentary election laws should be undertaken on the basis of the experiences of the recent general election. The opening of the new parliament was shorn of most of its usual color by the absence of the king, the state of whose health made it inadvisable to undertake the ordeal of the customary ceremonials. Instead of the blaze of the scarlet and ermine robes of the peers, the black and gold robes of the lords of appeal and bejewelled peereses, the chamber presented an ordinary, everyday appearance. It was perhaps symbolical of Labor’s plainness and dislike of pomp. Almost the only touch of color was furnished by the robes of the five royal commissioners, seated on a bench behind the wool sack. CITY SELLS AIRPORT SITE CROPS FOR $1,138 Timber Valued at $1,526 Is Not Put on Sale. The city airport fund was richer today by $1,138 following bargain day Monday at the city hall when the houses and crops on the airport site were sold. Wheat on the ground sold at par, but clover and timothy bids were too low to sell. Timber on the ground appraised at $1,526.34 was not put up for sale.

SEEK SCHOOL POST Several Mentioned for City Transfer Position. Several names have been mentioned by school officials as possible successors to Fred T. Gladden, city school transfer clerk and first as- j sistant to Superintendent Charles F. Miller, whose resignation will become effective Aug. 16 when he becomes county school superintendent. Russell C. Lowell, 5722 Oak avenue, is reported by school commis- j sioners to be an active candidate for the post. Lowell, at present an oil burner salesman, several years ago was manual training supervisor in the city schools. Another mentioned as a possible choice is Mrs. Maude Moudv, 4319 Park avenue, principal j of School 58 for a number of years.! Mrs. Moudy. it was reported, may have the support of Mrs. Lillian V. Sedwick, school commissioner. 1

Downtown InTN dianapolis had this demonstrated before interested crowds today while expert blasters in three hours did what fifteen laborers with air drills, heavy chisels and sharp picks had failed to do in six weeks of work, day and night. The crew of the William P. Jungclaus Company had been trying for six weeks to remove the reinforced concrete vault of the State Savings and Trust Company from the ruins of the building being wrecked at East Market street and Monument Circle to make way for the new Circle Tower building.

In desperation the company got a permit from the safety board to use dynamite for three hours this morning and the heavy masonry finally was crumbled. John Lambert, "expert blaster for forty-six years, who participated in clearing of the war memorial site directed the dynamiting. The vault had stood for eighteen years during which no burglar had even attempted to chisel into it. ELKS TO CONVENTION Delegates Ride on Special Train to Los Angeles.

BANKER TELLS WEIRD STORY OF KIDNAPING Captive Nearly Week; Loses $2.80 to Abductors at Penny-Ante Poker. SERVE EXCELLENT WINE Missing Financier Found Sitting in Own Auto Reading Newspaper. BV United I'ri nd EAST ORANGE. N. J., July 2. Willard H. Elliott, vice-president of the Hobart Trust Company of Passaic, today told a weird story of being kidnaped and held captive lor nearly a week by men who described themselves as Chicago gunmen, and who entertained him by winning $2.80 from him at pennyante poker. “They served me excellent wine,” Elliott sa'd in his home today, “and when I left they wanted a souvenir from me. so I gave them my belt with a valuable silver buckle.” Elliott was found early today by Sergeant Samouckie of Nutlev, sitting in his own car reading an account of his kidnaping by street light. Taken to police headquarters Elliott was identified by officers because of his former connection with a bank there. He was questioned brifiy and allowed to drive to his home. Consents to Tell Story Before retiring Elliott telephoned Mayor John J. Roegner, president of the Hobart Trust Company, and told his employer that, he would report for duty Wednesday after resting up a bit. The Elliott home at first was barred, but later Elliott consented to give his story. Elliott, prominent in New Jersey banking circles, disappeared last Wednesday after gaily waving a farewell to his daughter Ruth. “On Wednesday I left little Ruth (his daughter) at the playground," Elliott said. “When I got within a mile of my bank, I noticed a gray j sedan following me. In it were two men, Italians I am sure, one about 23 and the other about 35. Frightened by Publicity "When I reached a driveway opposite a roadhouse on Passaic avenue, in Passaic, a smaller car came out of the driveway and pulled along-side my car. The fellow in the small car had a pistol in his hand. The gray sedan pulled up on the other side of me, and I stopped. "The man from the little car came over and put his pistol in my stomach and forced me to get in the back seat of my car, lie down on the floor and covered me up with a rope. "I was assured that I would not be harmed if I kept quiet. I couldn't see much after that, but I believe my car was driven to a junk yard of some kind, because I saw a paper press and bales of paper. Children Played Around "The man held a conference here and decided to take me elsewhere. I w r as blindfolded with a handkerchief, and still in my own car, I was driven about a half-hour and then taken up on a porch. “There was a slight pause, and then a door opened and a feminine hand, or at least I believe it was, took hold of my hand and led me into the house. "The men took me in a room, removed my blindfold and I saw a room with a nice bed in it, but no carpet on the floor. They admitted they were Chicago gunmen, hired to kidnap me, but they said they didn’t know why. They were acting under orders. "They told me if at. any time I was kept captive I should hear any gunplay, they would leave the back door open so I could make my escape that way, because I was not mixed into that. “I was kept in that house until 1:30 this morning. They treated me very fine. We played poker and drank wine. My food consisted of sandwiches and the most wonderful coffee. "These fellows took nothing from me excepting that I lost $2.80 playing penny ante. In fact, that cleaned me out of ready cash. ”On Saturday night I told them I could not stand it any longer and that I must find some way to let my wife know r I was all right. They got some stationery for me to write my wife. I wrote: “‘lamo. k. Don’t worry. Am being detaitned. Best love to you and Ruth. WILLARD.’ / "They told me they would mail that to my wife or see she got it promptly. She tells me she did not receive it. “They let me go this morning at 1:30. They had kept my shoes from me all the time I was there. When they gave the shoes to me they were muddy, so one of the men scraped the mud with a pistol. “I was somewhere in Bergen county. I remember seeing a milk bottle with the name Clifton on it. is a town near Passaic.) “If I hadn't been worried about my wife I would have had a wonderful time. They were very decent to me. I heard many conversations between the men, but they didn’t mention the bank. "When I got away from that place this morning I drove a while and then got out and looked at my license plates. The rear plate was gone and I looked inside the car and found the plate wrapped in a Passaic newspaper that carried a picture of my daughter. I was looking over the papier when the officer,! Jtound me." . M
