WASHINGTON. July 14—(UP) The United States tried after World War I to return the Caroline, Marshall, Marianas and Sam on* Islands to Germany so that it then could bargain with Germany for their outright avquisitkm, ita was revealed
today.
The proposal, made to the peace conference by the American repre sentativea, came to nought and for mer German Islands, already held by Japan in 1918 and well on. the road to Japanization, were eventually mandated to Japan. The proposal was brought to light today as American officials agreed that those Pacific Island" must be kept by the United States after this war. But a lot of those officials are concerned and searching for a way to reconcile such acquisition with pledges of the Atlantis charger and the Cairo declaration against territorial expansion. The proposal for returning the islands to Germany after World War I was published recently in the state department's volume of papers relating to the Paris peace conference but it was overlooked then because of the vast amount of other material released.

A nine-state alarm was broadcast as the search for the missing Goggin baby became one of the most intensive in recent years. In addition, an order was issued by assistant chief inspector John J. Do Martino, directing all uniformed personnel to j search every city area, hospitals, ; other foundling homes, parking lots. playgrounds. f exits, terminals and even all'oyways in an attempt to locate the goldenhaired baby. The kidnaping was without precedent in the 75-year history of the hospital. A blood-stained sheet, found in thy hospital, was considered a lead, for a time but authorities later discounted
it.
