"Wasfitngtofl.--President CootMge til a proclamation recommending that the week beginning October 4 be observed as national fire prevention week, expressed great concern over the disclosure that during the last year there occurred the greatest fire losses in the history of the country. "The time has come for the annual ijesurvey of the nation's enormous wastage, alike in human life and in property, and for the annual appeal for the lessening of this huge loss. I am informed that during 1924, fires' caused the loss of approximately 15,000 lives and of property exceeding $548,000,000 in value. The'figures are startling; they are yet more so when It is added that this Is declared by competent authorities the greatest fire loss in any year of our history. "This waste results from condition^ which justify a sense of shame and Borrow; for the greater part of it could and ought to be prevented. Not only was the 1924 fire loss greater than that of any preceding year, but the ^088 for the first half of 1925 exceeded that for the like period of 1924. As a result of careful inquiries, I am informed that whereas the absolute as well as the per capita fire loss of this country tends to increase from year to year, the same losses in comparable European countries tend to decrease. For the most recent comparable periods fire/, losses in Great Britain are calculated at less than $1 per capita per annum, while those of the United States are placed at approximately $5 per capita. Comparisons with other European countries are similarly to our discredit. "It is highly desirable that every effort be made to reform the conditions which have made possible so vast a destruction of the national wealth. To this end for a long time past it has been customary to set aside a week in each year, during which the need of fire prevention may be emphasized. It la important that this practice be«contlnued. •Therefore, I recommend that the week beginning Sunday, October 4, be observed as national fire prevention week. To state and municipal officials, civic organizations, school authorities, and all citizens and organized bodies, I appeal for the fulleat co-operation in improving conditions. There is need for earnest study Ot the principles of fire protection, as • practical measure of national econr* "• I:'life. President Is Almost Run Down by Careless Autoist Washington. -- President Coolidge narrowly escaped being struck by an automobile while taking hi9 customary walk In the downtown section.

NAVY AVIATOR FLIES S UlLES IN MINUTE Lieutenant Flashes Through Air 302.3 Miles an Hour. Mitchel Field, N. Y. -- Flashing through the air at the speed of 302.3 miles per hour, better than five utiles a minute, Lieut. Alford Williams, U. S. N., gratified a lifelong ambition and set a new unofficial speed record. The 2,200-pound plane which Lieutenant Williams piloted Is the new Curtis racer with which the navy hopes to win the Pulitzer race "In October. Climbing in steep spirals, the plane poised hawklike at 3,000 feet and then dived toward the earth. Barely 800 feet from the ground It flattened out and Williams shot off on the straightaway one kilometer course. Lieutenant Williams said the airship balances perfectly and that the faster it goes the more sensitive are the controls.. Driven by a Curtiss V-1400 motor, the plane measures twenty-two feet from wing tip to wing tip, nineteen feet eight and one-half Inches in length, and stands eight feet and onehalf inch high. The speed attained by Lieutenant Williams, althoiffeh unofficial, breaks the world's record set by a French aviator. Adj. Fiorentin Bonnet, of 278 miles per hour, lost December. The plane will be taken to Manhassett bay, where It will be equipped with pontoons. Here the plane will be put over a course of approximately four miles in a tryout for the Jacques Schneider trophy race at Baltimore later in October. Nine Dry Agents Fired i b/NM~AJmi^rator\ AU*t*ri?> °* , Riff Revolt, Wounded Interest Rate to Bo 3l/% Per Cent--Boih Sides Are Pleased*7. *' '*•* '••'.".ydSS ' :'*** Wasttin^on.--Broad ofitTIhes'fif'the French debt settlement have already been practically agreed upon in preliminary negotiations, it has been disclosed, virtual agreements having already reached a point which insures the success of the formal negotiations. briefly the fundamental principles, which seem satisfactory both to the French and the administration include : • 1. Consolidation of the three classes of debt into one. These three are the prearmistice loans, the postarmistice loans, and.the price of the war supplies sold tgjhe French government n 1919. 2. Fixing of V period over which payments shall be made at sixty-two years, the same term as adopted in both the British and Belgian settlement 8. An interest rate of three and one* half per cent. 4. Reduction of the acumulated interest which had been figured at 5 per cent, thus bringing the present total of the debt up to $4,500,000,000 roughly speaking by making the rate of 3% per cent retroactive. 5. Further reduction of the present total of the debt by a retroactive adjustment of the interest actually paid on the $400,000,000 of debt for war supplies. France has actually paid $20,000,000 a year since 1919, or six years, at the rate of 5 per cent. This adjustment will practically credit France with the excess 1% per cent or some $6,000,000 a year for these six years, with a further adjustment for compounding. 6. Very Ipw payments during the first few years of the refunding period. This period of smaller payments Is fixed tentatively at not less than ten years nor more than fifteen, but probably approaching the latter figure. Both the administration and the French, It may be stated, are very much pleased with this progress toward the settlement Army and Navy Work on Proposed War Draft Bill Washington.--Army proposals for a selective service law to round out the national defense act have been referred to the joint board of the army and navy for ironing out disagreement between the services as to the form such legislation shall take. Both departments are hopeful that such a law will be enacted at the coming session of congress so they may have definite legal status for their man power mobilization plans. The army's proposed selective servive bill, now in virtually final shape, provides that after congress has declared a national emergency to exist, the President might proceed forthwith to draft for military service all male persons between eighteen and thirty years of age or such other age limits as he might fix "without deferment on account of industrial agricultural occupation." r" Nathalie Crane, twelve-year-old poetess of Brooklyn, N.

Bibane had been captured the day before by a sudden Rlfflan assault, and the French sought vengeance. While the planes dribbled death from above, field guns hurled shrapnel into the Rlfflan position,.2,500 feet above the valley. When the infantry was unleashed against the Riffians, after artillery and aerial preparation, the soldiers halted only long enough to bring their machine guns into place before rushing .forward for the crasy, scrambling asisault on the peak where they hoped to obliterate the memory of the costly defeat by a liberal shedding of Rlfflan blood.
