ITALIAN FLIGHT . SHATTERS HOPE OF ARMS LIMIT Military Experts Agree Air Forces Offer Newest Peace Problem. BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Serlops-Howard Foreign Lditor WASHIGTON, Jan. 9.—Disarmament is impossible. Such Is the lesson which General Italo Balbo's foray across the Atlantic with a fleet of ten planes helps to drive home, in the opinion of military experts here. Warships may be strictly limited by international agreement. So may armies operating on land. But airplanes can no more be limited than automobiles, and merchant ships no more than railway trains. And the two together could wage gory and as ghastly a war as ever 1 'fell mankind. New Problem Formed The Italian exploit is being '•.atched in Washington and other world capitals with special interest in view of the fact that the most important arms limitation conference of all time is planned for early next year. Ambassador Hugh Gibson even now is. arranging for American participation. To the navy General Balbo’s t,rans-Atlantlc exploit is especially interesting. It offers further proof that even if the United States builds up to warship parity with Great Britain, ton for ton and gun for gun, America will still be vastly inferior as a. sea power. Britain’s merchant marine in conjunction with aircraft is what makes the difference. Planes Aid Ships Dependable, sea-hopping airplanes have increased tenfold the effectiveness of merchant ships in time of war. Formerly a fast ocean liner could mount a few guns up to sixinch, with a range of eight or ten miles. Their value as auxiliary cruisers, therefore, was comparatively limited. Today the use of such liners has been revolutionized. Ships like the Europa, Bremen, Majestic, Homeric. Berengaria, Leviathan and others of their class, could carry in addition to armament, anywhere from 100 to 200 or more planes, each capable of dropping bombs on objectives 600 miles away and returning to base.

She told deputies the Negroes lifted her from the davenport, carried her to the bedroom, and, opening a window, hurled her into the yard. She said she hid in the garage until her husband’s arrival, nearly an hour after the thieves departed.

GREEK met Greek Wednesday night at the Marott when the toga of Athenian days ogled the modish frock of 1930 and said, 'Copy cat! You’re not so hot.” The meeting of the two extremes in dress came at the PanHellenic dinner of Butler university when approximately 500 sorority sisters doffed the modish gowns of today for the garb of Helen of Troy. Sandals supplanted high-heeled pumps and ribbons served as headdress. BANQUET ENOS COURSE Purdue Workers Hold Classes for Putnam County Fanners.

GUNMEN WILT AFTER CHASE * Desire to Fight Shaken by Police Weapons. By admission of two captured gunmen today, Police Chief Jerry Kinney's order equipping police cars with automatic shotguns saved police from another casualty in their war with criminals. Lewis Kelly, 30, of 1564 Broadway, and Frank Rooney, 30, of 826 Ft. Wayne avenue, were held on vagrancy and carrying concealed weapon charges after Walter P. Bennett and Mowrey S. Johnston, radio patrolmen, captured them at the close of a pusuit in the 5400 block College avenue, Thursday night. Police say they confessed they planned to hold up a north side theater before Bennett and Johnston became suspicious of them and started the chase. Had they not seen the shotgun they would have shot it out, the two men said. Both were armed. Kelly told police he escaped recently from the state farm, and Rooney is on parole from the state prison, where he was sentenced in 1927 for vehicle taking. TEST RAILS FOR FLAWS Delicate Instruments Used in Run Over Pennsy Tracks.

WIFE’S POVERTY CHARGE ANGERS ANCIENT A6HA 156-Year-Old Turk Says He Left Funds With Great-Great-Great Grandson. By United Press NEW YORK, Jan. 9—The curse of an ungrateful child and an angry wife descended on Zaro Agha today, and the blithe Broadway spirit which he has acquired since he- has been in America gave way to some- ; thing very much resembling vin-; dictive gloom. The grand old man of Turkey, who gives not a thought to his alleged 156 years, barged gaily into the lobby of his hotel Thursday evening after an exciting visit to the movies, and was met with the information that Mrs. Agha (The Eleventh) back in his native Istanbul had gone to law over him. Zaro flung off his imitation coonskin coat and gave vent to his rage. It seemed that Mrs. Agha informed the authorities that when her husband left for America he left her only SSO, a mere pittance. She wants the government to give her Zaro A pension. “It’s all the fault of my greatgreat - great - grandson!” Zlaro stormed, “there’s something funny going on here, and he’s responsible for it.” He explained that he had left the great - great - great - grandson 1,000 marks, or about S6OO, with which to tak; care of Mrs. Agha. “And that,” he cracking his knuckles viciously, ‘was plenty to keep her for two years.” He sat down and wrote a letter to the Constantinople authorities asking them to investigate the matter. “I’ll tan that youngster’s hide when I get home,” he added. FOUR GET LONG TERMS A “co-operative holdup” proved disastrous for four Negro bandits who were convicted today by Criminal Judge Frank J. Baker and sentenced to penal institutions for long terms. Ten-year reformatory sentences were given William Holloway, 24; James Walker, 19, and Elmer Thompson, 2J; Lawson Jacks, 17, accomplice ’vith the three others, was given a one-year farm sentence. They were charged with holding up John Birdmaker Dec. 22, obtaining $45 loot.
