Sets Dead Heart To Beating Again Cambridge, Aug. a human heart survived 30 hours after the death of the individual was told today to the physiological congress by Professor Euscbio A.

Hernandez of Paris who told of his own experiments. The Parisian physiologists proposed that'a study of death be made bv an international organization of physiologists. Professor Hernandez's proposal followed the experiment performed before the congress by Prof. E. Newton Harvey of Princeton, in which a dead heart was set beating rhythmically by super- sound waves.

Dr. Harvey placed a heart of a frojr in a glass tube. A level was attached from the heart to a revolving drum which showed straight line, the sign of death. Then without any change in the surroundings, the ventricles began to beat, and the pencil traced the lir.e of heart action. "A beating heart can be mode to neat much more rapidly by passing sound waves through it," the physiologist stated.

"But it would not be possible to resuscitate a person whose heart stopped beating, by means of sound waves because the tissues would absorb them nnd not penetrate the chest cavity." Dr. Philip B. Hawk of the food research laboratories of New York said that he discovered that there was no noticeable difference in effect from drinking six cups of coffee daily compared with drinking of one cup. The international congress comes to an end this afternoon at Sanders Theatre. Harvard.

Following that, several expeditions of physiologists will leave for other centers of research. Begins FTght From Moscow To New York Moscow, Aug.

Staff Correspondent Washington. Aug. for pending tariffs wars, Democratic members of the senate finance committee mot-today to devise a campaign for wholesale slashing of Ihe sharp Increases in industrial duties in the new Republican tariff bill. Democrats came Into the picture as Republican tariff-makers stepped aside after completing their revision of the house bill. Democrats met with Senator Simmons of North Carolina, minority tariff leader, to draft amendments to the Republican bill and to determine a' course of strategy for approaching debates.

Democrats will concentrate their heaviest fire upon a few industrial schedules, which accept almost verbatim increases in the agricultural schedule. It appeared the sugar, watch, cement and iron schedules would be his hardest by Democrats, al- fhough an effort undoubtedly will be made to restore bides and shoes to the free list. Senator Borah (R) of Idaho, gave Democrats some hop- for success in their effort- to slash industrial rates. Borah issued a statement, declaring the bill should be defeated in its present form as it increased the economic inequality between agriculture and industry. While Borah declared the increase on farm products rates were adequate to protect agriculture in the present market, he said the larger Increases in industrial rates would continue "the same injustice we were pledged to remedy." "It Is all wrong," Borah asserted.

"It Is a violation of our pledge ar.d if it is possible to defeat the scheme, it ought to be defeated." While the Democrats were accord on the plan to attack the Re- prblican nclustrial rates, they exhibited a divided front as to whether the new agricultural rates should be approved or increased. Senator Simmons announced he wasn't quite satisfied with them but if any change were recommended, it would be to increase them. This was echoed by Senator Connally (D) of Texas. Ten Chinese Arrested In Big Opium Seizure Boston, Aug. N.

Large quantities of opium and smoking Implements were seized, nnd ten Chinese were arrested early today when five car loads of police from the headquarters vice-squad raided a four story house in Albany Street.

Nino planes were scheduled to take off at 10 a. m. Reports from Cascade Locks, stated there was no celling In that and that flying would bo dangerous. Rcfcrco Russell Lawson said the talteoff would be governed entirely by weather reports and refused to set any definite time. Charles W.

Hoiman, Chicago, and W. H. Emery, Bradford, were among the latest to arrive here. Earl Wright, San Francisco, and D. G.

Warren had not arrived last night but may arrive in time to start the race. Hoiman and C. D. Dickinson, 72-year-old aviation enthusiast, dropped in from Chicago with their Laird racer. Dickinson will accompany Hoiman in, the race.

Ilolraan Is considered one of the best bets. He won the Gardner Trophy Race between St. Louis and Indianapolis this spring as well as placing first in the Los Angeles-Cincinnati Air Derby in 1928. Tex Rankin's plane was attracting' considerable attention. His Waco ship has neither wheels or shock absorbers.

Large tires attached directly to the hub constitute the landing gear. C. F. Bates, Milwaukee pilot is flying the same Waco speed wing plane that won the National Air Tour last year and which placed third in the 1928 New York-Los Angeles race. The route from Missoula where the first overnight stop is scheduled will be to Billings, Mont, and then to Bismarck, N.

Broken Kt-artcd Boy Kills Girl He Loved Denies She'll Wed Young Hoover New York, Aug. girl and a boy lay dead today, victims of a romance that was broken when another youth stole the girl's heart while her fiance was in Copenhagen, Denmark, to tell his parents of his great fortune. While the boy, Paul Larsen, twenty-two, was abroad, he received a note from his sweetheart, Edith Clum, seventeen, 477 Clinton street, Brooklyn, in which she said she had learned to love another. Paul raced back to New York, arriving July 13, but could make no progress toward regaining Edith's favor.

So he shot and mortally wounded her, and then put a bullet through bis own brain. They met when he boarded at her mother's home in Poughkcep- sie two years ago.

N. S. Staff Correspondent. Albany, Aug. 22.

Democratic leaders are convinced Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt will consent to accept renomination next year for the post of Chief Executive but should he finally decide to retire from politics they plan to nominate Lieutenant Governor Herbert H. Lehman for Governor. Friends of Governor Roosevelt at the Capitol are somewhat divided' about the possibility of the Executive consenting to become his party's standard bearer In the state a year from this fall. One group is certain that when another year has rolled around, Roosevelt will have had enough of the Governor's office and will want to retire to his country home at Hyde Park.

Another group not only has visions of Roosevelt again running and being elected Chief Executive of the state but they also insist is a possible candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination in 1932. The Governor has refused to discuss his political future except to make it plain that he is giving no thought to the presidential nomination in 1932. Last winter after Roosevelt had isued a statement setting forth, what, in his" judgment, was wrong with the Democratic party in the nation, some newspapers carried stories that he had his eye on the presidential nomination in 1932. The governor was frankly disturbed about these stories. The following day he-said to the newspapermen: "Boy I wish you wouldn't write anything more about me and the Democratic presidential nomination.

Honestly I haven't any thoughts in my mind along those lines. I am trying to do this job the best 1 can and that is all there is to it." During the last few months, however, some of the Governor's close friends insist he has made several moves which would appear to indicate he would not be adverse to accepting the Democratic presidential nomination in 1932. One thing is certain--New York has never had a Governor who has been more active in about the state than has going Gov. Koosevelt. He has traveled hundreds of miles this summer inspecting state institutions in every part of the state.

General Naval Conference Call From Washington In October Seems Likely Now By GEORGE R. HOLMES International News Sen Ice Staff Correspondent Washington, Aug. 23--If negotiations for Anglo-American naval agreement continue to progress at their present satisfactory pace. It Is entirely likely that a call for a general naval conference will go out from Washington sometime in October--with Premier Ramsay MacDonald of Great Britain as Its sponsor. The White House expects MacDonald to come to Washington about the middle of October.

By that time, it is expected, the naval experts will have jockeyed the current negotiations to a point where the British premier will be bcr of the Italian Schneider Cup able to announce that "substantial team, was almost Instantly killed accord" exists between Great Brlt- wJicn his plane plunged Into the aln and the United States on the lake at Dcsenzano during a trial i knotty question of naval parity, flight. Tho invitations to Japan, France Tno plane, built especially for the races, was totally destroyed.

TUB BEST aiiiMote for defeat CltuUled and Italy, the other great naval powers, to Join with Great Britain jind the United States in a general conference would logically follow. The Issuance of such a call from Washington bv a British Premier would give It a joint sponsorship aspect ot considerable moral value.

This ia the way Administration officials would like to see things work out. It is realized, however, that there still remain a great number of formidable hurdles to overcome before such a program can ue realized.

If they have massed as many on that front as they have on the front page, why they have done what I would call some mass production in massing.

PEOPLE wno retpond Quickly to claulfled ad opportunltlei make quick irocnw-toward aucctta, By International News Service Copyright 1S23, by International News (Via Radio to International Newj Service.) On Board Graf Zeppelin, August 23--The-Graf.

Zeppelin, cnroute from Kasumigaura Flying Field to Los Angeles, on the third leg of its round-the-world flight, today successfully passed through the worse storm in the history of its air travels. The airship struck the storm within 300 miles after the start from Kasumigaura, at 3:12 p. m. (2:12 a. Eastern Daylight Time).

The storm was of greater intensity than that which the Graf encountered over the Atlantic last October during the first flight from Friedrichshafen to Lakehurst, and was far more dangerous. This storm furnished the passengers aboard the Graf, and Dr. Eckener and his officers, their first experience with an electric storm while in flight. For several minutes, which seemed like hours to those in the control cabin, the vivid flashes of the deadly lightning played about the great silver hulk of the airship. Any one of those brilliant bolts, the concussion of which sounded like the rending of the universe, would have blown the great air liner and its human cargo to bits, had a direct hit been registered on one of the gas bags.

-I 1 By JAMES R. YOUNO International News Service Staff Correspondent. Tokio, Aug. 23--The Graf Zeppelin, bound from Tokio to Los Angeles on the third leg of its round the world flight, crossed the Japanese coast line to the Pacific Ocean this evening and at 9 o'clock, (8 a. m.

New York Daylight Saving Time), was approximately; 420 miles east by northeast of Tokio. The Graf radioed her 9 p. m. position as 147 east longitude and 37 north latitude. She gave her 6 p.

m. position as 145 east longitude- and 35 north latitude. Dr. Hugo Eckener, the commander, reported north wind blowing slightly more than 22 miles an hour. Just four hours after Dr.

Hugo Eckener, commander of the round-the-world airship, gave the order "Let go!" at Kasumigaura Airfield, near here, to begin the third leg of the world-circling flight, the airship was-sighted passing over Sanohe, Aomuri Prefecture, 343 miles northeast of Tokyo. Two hours previously word had reached Tokyo that the Zeppelin had passed over Tiara, which approximately 125 miles northeast of the capital. Both reports of the liner's progress indicated Dr. Eckener had chosen excellent flying weather for the start of the Pacific leg of his trip, and that he was driving his charge at an average of better than 85 miles per hour. It was not known here whether the Graf's commander was following the practice established on the Red Leader Burns And Massacres London, Aug.

23--(INS)-It is officially reported from Sangchih, Hupeh Province, China, that the Red leader Ho Lung and his followers burned 50 persons to death, massacred 500 families and destroyed 2,000 houses by fire, said an Exchange Telegraph dispatch from Canton this afternoon.
