U.S. MAY LOSE WAR DEBTS IF TARIFFPASSES Other Nations Can Not Pay If Trade With America Is Barred. 30 BILLIONS INVOLVED Yankee Investments Abroad to Exceed 19 Billions by End of 1930. BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Serippi-Howard Foreixn Editor WASHINGTON, June 2.—Further drastic reduction or cancellation of the war debts at a cost of billions cf dollars to American taxpayers may become inevitable if the tradekillinl tariff bill now nearing a vote in congress becomes law. Americas total foreign investments. not counting the war debts, amounted to nearly $ 17,000 ,000,00J at the end of 1929. As we are adding to these investments more than 52.000.000.000 a year, by the end of 1930 foreigners will owe us aPP™* 1 " mately $19,000,000,000 plus some SI 1000,000,000 in war debts, or a total of about $30,000,000,000. Sat makes $250 a head for every man. woman and child m America. Feat Is Impossible Normally, with international trade in full swing, repayment of tms colossal sum would present no 301:10 difficulty. Great Bnt . ai P as she never prospered be when her foreign investments amoun.cU S> S2O W 0 000,000. But Britain was a free-trade county, without * tariff wall between her and her debtor nations. Her a well as her exports, lea the world. Bv the time the proposed tar ff begins to have its full effect on our foreign trade Americans with in vestments abroad will be trying to ect at least their little 5 per cent per annum on $30,000,000,000. This amounts to no less than $1 500.000.000. and that this huge sum can be collected from foreignour buying large quantities of goods, services and other things from them, economists admit, is simply out of the question. Our ordinary sales overseas already exceed our imports by some $800,000,000 a year. But there a th e ' ta Benito I* account—the purchases t expenditures of American tourists abroad, remittances home of foreigners working in the united States, and so on. \ Much More to Collect These reach a total of approximately a billion dollars annually, so, counting these in, foreigners may be said to profit, in ttoeir tradeswi us, to the tune of $123,000,000 a year, or thereabouts. But without counting repayment „„ B ?hW principal of foreigners soon must begin to pay us at least $1,500,000,000 annually if we are to receive even 5 per cent in our Tnvestments. The njsm.000 mentioned above, therefore, is hardly a drop in the bucket. We must collect $1,375,000,000 a year in addition. Foreigners, of course, may go on for a while paying their debts to us, regardless of which way foreign trade balances go. They can borrow the money, mostly from us, with which to do it.

War Debts Will Go Like a manufacturer getting started, they can carry on for two or three years with more going out than is taken in, but eventually the manufacturer must sell enough to make a profit, or break even, or he goes bankrupt. Sooner or later America must trade with her debtors. directly or indirectly, or she won't be able to get her money. And if it ever becomes a case ot reducing or canceling pot ions of our debts abroad, the first portion to go will be the war debts. The senate has insisted that these war debts must be paid to the last red cent, but congress, by passing its trade-killing tariff measure, may make collection impossible. DEMAND QUICK ACTION ON SITE OF HOSPITAL Marion County Group Charges Politics Is Causing Delay. Resolution urging immediate action on the selection of the site for the United States veterans' hospital in Indiana was the answer today for the Marion County Council, Veterans of Foreign Wars, to press dispatches asserting politics was causing the delay. Unwillingness of Indiana Republicans in congress to the selection of a site in Indianapolis, represented in concress by a Democrat. Louis Ludlow, was blamed for the delay, in dispatches from Washington. The veterans' resolution demanded that politics not be injected into selection of the site. Charles R.

GRAF ZEP IS i READY TO HOP FORGERMANY Dirigible Will Take Off at g 10 Tonight for Its §r Base City. i<§ THREE TRIPS SLATED Norway, Spitzbergen and Iceland to Be Visited t by Eckener, jj BY LYLE C. WILSON, United Press Staff Correspondent LAKEHURST, N. J., June 2.—The dirigible Graf Zeppelin stood fueled | and ready in the naval air station hangar here today for the final leg of a pioneering commercial flight linking three continents. Dr. Hugo Eckener, commander, has set 10 tonight as the .hour at which the world’s largest airship will depart for its base, Friedrichshafen, Germany, to end th 12,000mile voyage which started two weeks ago Sunday and took the dirigible over the south Atlantic to Brazil, then northward to the United States. While a throng of 100,000 persons poured into the air station from every direction Sunday for a final glimpse of the famous ship, workmen finished refueling and inflating the dirigible with hydrogen. The Zeppelin could have left early today, officials said, but for the desire of the passengers for relaxation before the final leg of the trip. Little more of the world remains for the ship to conquer, but Dr. Eckener is going after that little in a systematic manner. In July, Eckener will begin a series of three northern cruises, the first to northren Norway, then to Spitzbergen, where Rear Admiral Byrd took off on his north pole flight, and finally to Iseland. The complete passenger list of twenty or twenty-two persons will be made public before the ship sails. Crowds returned to the air station today, but not in the proportion that choked roads Sunday and sent thousands away disappointed at not seeing the big dirigible. Zeppelin officers and members of the crew took advantage of tjie stopover to obtain rest.

BANK OFFICERS HELD Accused by Grand Jury of Embezzling Funds. By United Pret* PORTLAND, Ind , June 2.—Two more officers of the Jay County Savings and Trust Company were arrested today as the result of failure of the bank a few weeks ago. Thomas W. Shimp, president, and Roscoe D. Wheat, vice-president, were arrested on a grand jury indictment charging bankers’ embezzlement. They are charged with accepting deposits after they knew the bank was insolvent. They were released under bond of $2,000 each. Wheat is a former judge of the Jay circuit court. The bank was closed after Clyde D. Bechdolt, cashier, confessed that he had embezzled a large sum of money, believed to amount to more than SIOO,OOO.

FORMER CINCINNATI CITY EXPERT HERE

Ex-Municipal Head Confers With Local Officials on Employment. Unemployment and municipal affairs were to be discussed this afternoon by C. O. Sherrill, former city manager of Cincinnati, and Indianapolis city officials. Sherrill, who becomes public relations director for the Kroger Grocery and Baking Company, came here with Albert H. Morrill, recently elected president of the chain store company. The two arrived by airplane. They were scheduled to meet Mayor Reginald H. Sullivan and other city officials at city hall at 3 this afternoon. During the discussion Sherrill will outline the system used in Cincinnati to minimize unemployment. Under the system a bureau was set up to find temporary jobs and each family head, is guaranteed twenty-four hours’ work week at 30 cents an hour. The system involves staggering hours of employment, much similar to pains undertaken by business men here under leadership of the Chamber of Commerce. Chamber of Commerce officials met the two visitors. At 6 tonight

TARIFF IS BIG ISSUE AT lOWA POLLSTODAY G. 0. P. Voters Seek to Name Nominee to Take Senate Seat From Steck. FOUR-CORNERED BATTLE 400,000 Are Expected to Cast Ballots; Hot Fight •for Governor. BY GENE GILLETTE, United Press Staff Correspondent DES MOINES, June 2.—Republican voters in lowa went to the polls in the state primary election today to choose a candidate for the United States senate whom they hope can retrieve for the party the seat that was lost six years ago to Democratic Senator Daniel F. Steck. Steck was unopposed on the Democratic side of today’s primary ballot but Republican votes will decide a four-cornered political battle in which Governor John Hammill and Congressman L. J. Dickinson have been leading figures. A vote of 400,000 was anticipated. Whether Hammill or Dickinson or either of their two less favored rivals, Major Frank J. Lund or W. O. Payne win the nomination, parly leaders feel confident the G. O. P. standard bearer will displace Steck, who is the first Democratic senator from lowa in a half century. It was on a split in the Republican ranks that Steck rode into office and there is no threat of a similar division this year.

Centered About Tariff The senatorial campaign, centered about the tariff and the political records of the candidates, has been vitriolic, but hardly more so than the race for the Republican nomination for the Governor’s chair that will be vacated by Hammill. Taxation was the issue in the Republican gubernatorial race with Dan W. Turner favoring a state income tax and his opponents, Ed M. Smith and Otto Lange, opposing it. Fred P. Hagemann was unopposed on the Democratic side. In both the senatorial and gubernatorial races each candidate was predicting victory today by a comfortable margin with the exception of Payne, who tempered his optimism with the assertion that the race might go into convention for a decision. Eleven Seats at Stake Under state law a candidate must receive 35 per cent of the vote cast for nomination. Otherwise the contest goes into convention. Eleven seats in the United States house of representatives were at stake in today’s primaries, but seven incumbents will be renominated without opposition. An entire new state house of representatives was in the making today and twenty-one seats in the state senate were to be filled.

furnish meals for the threshing crew. And meals for a crew that worked from sunrise to sunset, were no quick lunches. The threshing crew, however, is eliminated by the combine, and the women’s role is easier. * * n WHEAT farming corporations were a further development made possible by the machine in agriculture, and are adaptations of big business methods. A company, for instance, will lease a strip of land across Kansas and with the combine harvester, will cut the entire area, working northward as the sun turns the fields a golden brown.

Murder of Girl Is Linked With Rothstein’s Slaying: ‘Squawked’ on Killers of Lover, Flouting Underworld Silence Decree. BY PAUL W. WHITE United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, June 2.—Anna Urbas, 24, and flamboyantly pretty, was sought for months by police and gangsters. The gangsters found her first. Her boay lay unclaimed today in the morgue, where it was taken after having been lifted from the Harlem river. Perhaps, in some remote way, she owes her death to the fact that Arnold Rothstein was slain. So complicated are the mazes of intra-gangland feuds that no one can be certain—but the muKier of Anna, of her one-time lover, Eugene Moran, and of six other men well may have developed as an aftermath of the fatal shooting of the east's best-known gambler. Authorities admittedly have their hands full in attempting to find her killers, the men who attached wired weights to her neck and right thigh and then threw her into the Harlem to drown. But then the identification itself was difficult, because two months in the sluggish river had erased all traces of her garish beauty and otherwise had disfigured her. a a a NOT until detectives consulted a dentist in Brielle, N. J., were they satisfied that the slain girl was Anna Urbas. The dentist had known her as the wife of John Rice, an alias taken last summer by Moran. Oddly enough, it was the same dentist (whose name has been withheld for fear of reprisals) who was able to identify Moran after the whilom henchman of Rothstein had been filled with bullets and then cremated in a blazing motor car on the city dump at Newark. Anna Urbas knew too much about Moran’s assassins; at any rate she talked too much. Moran, according to police, was a sl,ooo-a-week bodyguard of Rothstein and shared the guardianship with such well-known underworld characters as Fatty Walsh and the Diamond brothers, Jack (Legs) and Eddie. The henchmen fell out after Rothstein’s murder and not long afterward Walsh was shot to death in Florida. Then came the firing of several shots at Eddie Diamond in Denver. Eddie since has died, but from tuberculosis. Gangland heard that the killing of Moran was in retribution for the attempt on Eddie Diamond's life. Anna Urbas supported this view and named three men as the slayer of her paramour.

AMONG this trio were James Batto and Morty Shubert, both of whom since have been taken on that form of “ride” which has death as its destination. Meanwhile, occurred other killings, including that of Frank Devlin, known to have been in Denver with Moran at the time of the Eddie Diamond episode. At length Anna Urbas realized that to have spoken so freely in a society where silence is the better rule was not particularly healthy. She had been living at the home of Moran’s father, William Moran, when she was informed that a gunman was looking for her. Anna lit out. The police also wanted her for further questioning concerning Moran’s affiliations. n n IT was a long chase. At various times she was trailed to West Virginia, to Weehawken, N. J., and Cleveland. The police always found that not only had she evaded them, but that others were on the same trail. Her last known abode was in Long Island City, where she lived with Richard Fuqua, a taxi driver. Fuqua, questioned by detectives, said he had not seen the girl since the night of March 24. It is assumed that she was overtaken that night by gangsters and put to death at once. Police found that the girl had taken out a SI,OOO life insurance policy, with her mother named as beneficiary. They telegraphed the mother, Mrs. Mary Urbas, of 14822 Hale avenue, Cleveland, and received word from Police Chief Graul of Cleveland that Mrs. Urbas “was financially unable to assist” in Anna's burial.
