THE OSHAWA DAILY. TIMES, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1929 NO RACE WITH US. IN NAVY BUILDING Premier MacDonald Gives Definite Assurance to the League Assembly Geneva, Sept. 4.-~Premier Ram- 'say MacDonald of Great Brita yesterday told the assembly of the League of Nations that a prelimin- ary understanding on naval mats ters had heen reached with the United States on 17 out of 20 dis puted points. His auditors applauded vigorous- ly when he announced that the An- glo-American accord would be more than a mere agreement as to naval ratios and would be a document which will establish peace. With great earnestness Mr. Mae- Donald stated that the British gov- ernment declines absolutely to build up a navy against United Btates. He added, "The United States tan take that--I think I might can BARBARA KE&NT Universal player, wears this pretty ensemble of white crepe, the coat of which is embroidered in pas- tel colors. > -- Fg WN iy 7 Mtrarad IAI) it---as a last word, because it is not only the word of the Labor government, It is also the word of its predecessors, the Conservi- tive government." The British premier insisted that the only purpose was to get an agreement with the United States which would be preliminary té summoning a five-power confer: ence, and that the other powers would be as free to make their pro- posals as though no conversations |. had taken place between Great Britain and the United States. Mr. MacDonald said that he did not want to hazard a promise but that he thought an announcement as to definite results of the propos- ed naval agreement could be made before the present assembly ter- minates. "An agreement will make us free agents fn promote naval diss armament of the world." No Conspiracy Against Nations At another point in his address he said that one of the greatest risks of war is that "some of us are too heavily armed. We must face the problem of disarmament with undivided minds. Still, tne risk of war 'breaking out is now much less than i§ the hope of main- taining peace." He emphasized that the Anglo- American negotiations are in no way a conspiracy against other na- tions. The eagerly awaited address by the British Premier fulfilled the erpectations of the delegates. Not only did he make the most positive statement 'concerning the naval sit- uation that has yet been made, nut he dwelt at some length on other uppermost international questions, such as the relation of .the Kellogg anti-war pact to the covenant of the league and the conflict in the mandated territory of Palestine. Mr. MacDonald was in magnifi- cent speaking form. He scarcely glanced at the few notes he had laid on the rostrum. His speech was practically extemporaneous. "The new maid seems very nice and quiet." ; "Yes, she doesn't even disturb the dust when she's cleaning."

Contributions to th' « 'umn will b= welcomed, and should be sent to the Times office not later than - Tuesday morning each week, SCOUT EDITORIAL One of the finest sections of Scout work, is the hike, Hiking is apt to be put to one side by busy Scoutmasters as a rather un- important part of a Scout's training, and in this fault many are apt to fall, In reality a hike is something more than a mere ramble. It is a walk with a definite objec- tive and a set purpose. There are different kinds of hikes such as: Bird Observation, Weed and" Wild Flowers, 'I'ree and Leaf, Treasure Hunt and Tracking and Stalking Hikes, which serve to add a certain zest to the occasion which will en- trance the average boy, if he has any imagination at all, The onus of preparing and superin- tending hikes should not be left to the Scoutmaster, however, for while a Troop hike every now and then is a good thing, the various Patrols should go out ncarly every week, and the Patrol Leader who does not ar- range one or two Patrol hikes cach month is falling down on his job rather sadly. It is really surprising how much knowledge can be obtained in a plea- sant way from hiking, and it is rcal sport to cook your own meals over an open fire with nothing' but nature's cooking utensils, Finally, there arc only a few sim- ple rules to hiking which all scouts observe. These are: (1). See that your good condition. (2). Do not wear stockings with darns where they will hurt. (3). Prick blisters with a needle and smear with good soap or Ointment, (4). Always ask permission footwear is in clean toilet before entering another man's property. (5). Be sure to clean up when you leave so: that nobody would know that you had. heen there. If these rules, along with the Scout Oath .and Laws, arc observed, there will be nothing but pleaswge . and kiowledge gained from hiking. a SCOUT NOTES There were sighs of a good time with plenty of eating and singing at the Cofn Roast of the 2nd Troop, at which the 4th Troop, and a Company of Girl Guides were the guests, The sight of the Camp Fire burning merrily, and 'the sound of the sing- ing proved undoubtedly that the ev- ening was heing enjoyed. Whether this continued after every body had tasted the damper cooked by ASM. O. Flint is a matter for question, but we hear that those who tasted it voted it as being very good. VISITED C. N. E. CAMP E. Hann, W. McLeese, G. Terrett, G. Rooney, ASM. G, Bickell were among the Qshawa Scouts who visit- cd the Camp at the C.N.E. in Toronto From all accounts the visitors had a good time, and met some interest- ing scouts who had come from great distances, including one boy from New York, who was able to tie knots quicker than one could see. I'his boy could apparently pick up a picce of straight rope off of the are 1 and hand it, to anybody with the required knot in it, as quickly as if he was just picking up the rope and handing it to them untouched. We would like to know if there is anybody in Oshawa who can ap- proach this speed. PASSED TESTS On Monday of this week, several LIST SPEED FLIER FOUND IN DESERT Major Wood Still Missing-- Feared May Be Dead Needles, 'Ariz, Sept. 4.--Ward Miller, 25-year-old aeroplane me- chanic, was found wandering in the desert here yesterday, and told a gtory that hinted of tragedy for his companion, Major John Wood, aged 32, President of the Northern A1r- ways, who took off from Los An- geles for Cleveland early on Mon- day. Last night men and aeropianes were searching the desert for Major Wood and his machine, Miller, whos aid he believed the Miller, who said he believed the explosion hurled him from tne speeding machine. 'He told a pros- pector, who found him dazed and near collapse, that he lapsed int¢ unconsciousness just as he pulled the rip cord of his parachute, After he regained his senses, Miller said, he found himself pros- trate on the desert. Wandering about, he saw bits of the wing of an aeroplane but could find no trace of the pilot or other parts of the craft. | It is possible that a bolt of light- ning struck the ship, as a severe storm raged over the desert early on Monday.
