24 (AP) -Death, romance, fever, sunburn, lipsticks and powder puffs are mingled in queer defiance as racers in -the national women's air derby wing their way from Santa Moni ca, California, to Cleveland, Ohio. It's a peculiar business, this straddling of the major part of the American continent by fifteen sun burned, seriousminded young women. Peculiarities of the derby were demonstrated here today when the fliers stopped to refuel and eat lunch before continuing to East St. Louis. A mere man, Frank C.

Copeland of Santa Monica, is director of the flight. But the pilots, woman-like, have the last word. If a flier drops behind, lands on a western desert, or cracks up a plane, a vote of the participants is taken. If the vote is favorable, the tardy aviatrix is allowed to continue. No one has been disqualified thus far.

Ruth Elder, Hollywood, actress, who, with George Haldeman, was rescued from the Atlantic ocean after the plane "American Girl" had flown most of the way to Europe, admitted she was winging her way to matrimony. The groom, she said, is to te Walter Camp, son of the late Yale football coach and now a moving picture company president in Holly wood. Young Camp, she said, pro posed Just before the hop-off of the derby. At San Bernardino, Calif or nia, Miss Elder telephoned an af firmative answer.

Claire Fahy, Los Angeles, retired from the race shortly after the start, asserting acid had. been used to eat away guy wires on her plane.

Thea Rasche, German aviatrix, left Kansas City a Joyful young woman. At Wichita, yesterday, officials were notified her federal license had expired and that she was to be "grounded." Negotiations with the department of commerce resulted in the license being renewed, a telegram to this effect being received here. In flight, the pilots dress as their whim suggests, knickers, unlonalls, puttees, silks, ribbons and moleskin coats are mingled In strange coniu slon. Of the twenty women pilots who left Santa Monica last Sunday, fifteen passed through here today. Bobbie Trout of New York stop ped In Fort Worth today to have her plane repaired.

Florence Lowe Barnes of Ssn Marino, withdrew from the race at Pecos, Texas, after her plane had cracked up In landing ish troops and warships rushed toward Palestine tonight to restore peace on the mandated territory where nearly two score had been killed In rioting between Arabs and Jews over the, holy sites of Jerusa lem. The colonial officer stated that "immediate action is being taken which will enable local authorities to restore and maintain order." Meanwhile, the holy city is under martial law, with citizens ordered off the streets by 6 p. m. and strict military censorship imposed on al outgoing telegrams and news dispatches.

Secretary Stimson has been dealing intimately with the situation and has been in constant touch with Mr. Hoover and American naval exports. Officials here tonight pointed put that Mr. Stimson would be prepared to enter a conference thoroughly acquainted both with the American and British desires and viewpoints. To assist him there would' be Ambassador Dawes and Hugh S.

Gibson, American ambassador to Bel-glum and head of the American delegation to the League of Nations preparatory disarmament commission, who is particularly well informed on the viewpoints of other nations. Rear Admiral Hilary P.

Zeppelin Proceeding Toward United States With Better Weather (Continued from Page One) ed position received here by the Radio Marine corporation. TOKYO, Aug.

25. (Sunday) (AP) With a third of the Paci-Iflc ocean behind her the Graf Zeppelin was speeding on to the halfway mark on her 5,400 mile journey toward America at a speed of nearly 70 miles an hour. Her position at midnight Saturday, Tokyo time (10 a. m. Saturday E.

S. was more than 500 miles to the south of the western Aleutian islands and ap-proximatedly 2,000 miles east" of Tokyo. This was 32 1-2 hours after she left Kaumis-arua naval airfield at 3:15 p. m. Friday, and indicated a SDeed of aonroxima- miles an hour as an average for the run.

In the first 21 hours she had averaged 69 miles an hour. The Ochiishi government wireless station picked up numerous messages form" the Zeppelin yesterday and today. The, Graf announced she was picking up speed again since weather conditions began improving after nightfall last night and was making a speed of 70 miles an hour. She had met splotchy weather during the run' from midnight to midnight. Interspersed with periods of fair weather were rain, heavy fogs, clouds and head winds which" sometimes materially reduced her speed.

Them directly-eastward course which she followed most of Friday was changed to keep fairly closely to the old sailing route' of the wind-jammers from Yokohama to San Francisco early Saturday. She followed the east-northeast course in a general way throughout Saturday with minor deviations to seek more favorable conditions. The general trend of her course late Saturday was away from, the windjammer route towards the steamer lanes of the great circle. The Graf informed the Ochiishi station she was in communication with American wireless stations from which she had received accounts of the preparations for her reception at Los Angeles. These naa greauy increased the eagerness of the passengers to reach the, goal of the third stage of the Zeppelin's flight around the world.

The messages from the Graf Indicated she might mave to' omit her flight over Seattle in order to avoid a low pressure area reported off the coast of Canada. She would be obliged in that case to strike the Pacific coast of America further south, probably in the region around San Francisco.

She was not one of the leaders. After her arrival shortly before 5 o'clock, Miss Haizlip said a farm youth volunteered to help her after she was forced down. He couldn't crank the ship so she did it "with my good right arm." Thea Rasche complained that dirt in the gasoline had slowed her plane today. There was ni talk of sabo tage, however.

Miss Elder said she had not charged or suspected any wilful damage to her plane. She said that at San Bernardino, Calif, a mistake was made in putting gasoline into the oil tank, but that the error was discovered and remedied at once, and she did not consider it an act.

"A plate dropped out and the wa ter came in," said Captain George Pietsch, who, as a German naval officer, had several boats sunk under him during the war. "Rust spot gave way," said the Second Mate Nils Jorgenshen. 'She was so rusty, I think I could have poked my hand through." "She laid down and died on us," said the crew. And: "Just another shipwreck" added an American member of the crew, Cook Harry Anderson, of Portland, Oregon. "The old ship was all right," said Captain Pietsch.

"If she hadn't been, we wouldn't have taken her out. She was passed by the Lloyd inspectors at Norfolk just before we started." The Richard Nathan company, American agents for the owners, issued a statement today in which they, too, declared the Quimistan was seaworthy when she started out. They denied reports that she was in such bad shape that a captain and crew brought her from New Orleans to Norfolk deserted. "The facts are that Captain Theodore Weisa, who came from Germany to make the Quimistan to Genoa trip, was offered another job on his arrival in New York," the statement said. "We released him, but before he left he supervised the final repairs to the Quimistan in drydock "at New Orleans and he brought her around to Norfolk." MISS HOLM STARS SAN FRANCISCO, Aug! 24.

Workers to Satisfy The Britishers (Continued Page One) shakins tin the almost expiring conference today Mr. Snowden so stirred its blood, as to give it new life. The chancellor in a letter to Premier Herfri Haspar of Belgium, said he had had enough verbal pro posals and that the time has come to put on paper whatever the other creditors had to offer, and to do it at once. He asked' for a reply this evening but it was readily apparent that the written proposals could scarcely, be completed before tomorrow morning.

The British chancellor took occa sion in his letter to repudiate any thought that the British were en couraging or abetting a move to induce the Germany to contribute to the offers to Britain by Increasing the uncondition portion of the annuities. Mr. Snowden already had made It clear that he would not accept for Britain sacrifices by the smaller allies and he now revealed determination not to accept further sacrifices by Germany. The British theory Is that the other creditor powers obtained In the Young plan undue advantages from which the British suffered. Mr.

Snowden wants those powers, notably France, and Italv to Dut things right by abandoning to British" what he claims they took away In the Paris conference of experts. An immediate consequence of the intervention by. the chancellor was postponement until next week of a meeting of the six powers that organized the conference, which had been set for this afternoon. i The chancellor suggested that It was useless for them to meet again until the creditor powers had put on paper what they proposed to offer. The four powers interested In evacuation of the Rhineland meanwhile went on with their work and were understood to have practically completed an agreement, subject to adoption of the Young plan.

The date for final liberation of the occupied territory will not, however, be given out until Tuesday when Arthur Henderson, British foreign secretary will present a report on the subjects to the full political committee. Progress made with regard to the Rhineland again revived hopes of a final agreement on everything.

The injured numbered more than 200.

Cotton after consultation with the president. Secretary Stimson and the naval Officials expressed some doubt, however, whether the president, in the event a conference Lj held abroad, would desire both his secretary of state and undersecretary to be absent at the same time.

Lumpkin, who wa3 one of the main cogs In the backfield which helped the Jackets win both the southern conference and unofficial national championship last year, told classmates in the summer school at Georgia Tech he was going to his home at Dallas, Texas. The backfield ace, it was said, was reported for cutting classes. This led to an investigation by faculty and coaches. Lumpkin was warned that he must make up his class work if he hoped to play football this year. Lumpkin packed his trunk and quit the campus.

Close friends do not look for him back. 'It was said at Tech flats that unless Lumpkin returns to classes within a. few days he will not have time to make up his work and become eligible to participate in athletics. A few weeks ago the big- Texan caused a flurry in southern gridiron circles by going to Portsmouth. Ohio, where he is said to have considered an offer to join a professional football team.

Lumpkin changed his mind, however, and after a few days of sight seeing in came back to Atlanta to announce that he was done with the pros and would be back in the Tech backfield again. Loss of this star fullback adds another major problem to the long list confronting head Coach Bill Alexander, Who must find another running mate for Thomason and Mizell In addition to replacing "Pete" Pound, all American center; Raleigh guard; "Frank Speer, tackle and Bob Durant, quarterback. Harrison lis Leading In Tariff Row (Continued from Page One) In addition, from rfigh republican councils there was issued a warning that should a filibuster develop, endangering passage of the proposed legislation at the special session or early In regular session, a move would be made to defer action on the tariff for another year. Under no circumstances, it said, would the republicans counte nance any effort to postpone action far into the regular session beginning in December or until the time of the spring primary campaign for the next congressional elections. Attributing this warning to Sen ator Watson of Indiana, the repub lican leader, Senator Harrison, democrat, Mississippi, said that the move was not surprising.

"This administration and those who have brought forth this tariff iniquity," said, "are beginning to feel. the aroused indignation of the American people. "They have retreated step by step and now are only looking for some excuse to extricate themselves from the position they have Instead of a filibuster, Harrison said there "is going to be orderly, reasonable debate. 'The democrats he added, would "not be bludgeoned by coercion or threats from a full and frank discussion of every item and a record vote on the vari ous increases in present duties and on amendments 'that will be offered upon the "That is what the country wants and that is what the democratic minority will demand," he asserted, adding that the measure was indefensible, that the republican leadership Was beginning to see this, and that "leader Watson's move is the first step In the retreat." Chairman Smoot said, today that as one time-saver, he would not make an extensive speech in explanation of the bill at the opening of debate, but would confine his re marks to a brief explanation of the proposed changes as each revised paragraph was reached. He said he formally would intro duce the bill September 4, and ask that consideration begin the fol lowing day.

The senate probably will recess on the -first meeting day but of respect to Senator Tyson, democrat, Tennessee, who died early today. Smoot said he "hoped" the bill would be passed at the special session but would not make a definite prediction that this! would be done.

STIMSON TO HEAD DELEGATION THAT WILL DISCUSS NAVAL DISARMAMENTS WASHINGTON DISCUSSING CONFERENCE WASHINGTON, August 24. (AP) Secretary Stimson Is expected in well informed circles to head the American delegation to the naval parley which is being tentatively discussed by Ambassador Dawes and Premier Mac-Donald.

While there has been no decision on the date or location of a disarmament conference, some consideration has been given by officials in both the state and navy departments to the personnel of. the American delegation. Reports from London have stated that the conference will likely be held there, either late this year or early next year. President Hoover and Secretary Stimson are well aware that the setting of a definite date for the conference must necessarily depend upon the progress which is made by the British premier and the American ambassador in securing some f- basis of settlement between Great Britain and the United States on the basic factors and principles in the problems as they concern these two countries. After these factors are determined, and hopes are held here that some definite arrangement can be reached in a matter of weeks, the other powers will be consulted with a view to calling a general naval conference.

Since Prime Minister MacDon-.
