if TUESDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 11, 1930 THE SPRINGFIELD LEADER FIVE VTu i riin irrN I I no PAGI OKI 1 1 1 SUBS SURVIVE TENSE ATTACK Secretary Stlmson presented the American viewpoint, asking abolition' of submerslbles In an. address which he said that the essential objection to the submarine "Is that It is a weapon particularly susceptible to abuse, that it is susceptible of use against merchant ships in a way that violates alike the laws of war and the dictates of humanity. The use of the submarine revolted the conscience of the world in the World war." A. V. Alexander, first lord of the admiralty for Great Britain, was the first to speak.

"As regards those nations which wish to use submarines for the purely defensive he declared, "quite frankly we feel that those views are mistaken." SUmton'i Stand He was followed shortly by Henry L. Stlmson, secretary of state and Jiead of the American delegation. "It seems to the American delegation," he said, "that we have a common Interest in the abolition of the submarine; first of all for the purpose of suppressing costly weapons which we can forego by agreement and by the abolition of which we reduce our requirements and other classes of ships and second, for the purpose, of eliminating in the future the dreadful experiences of the past. The American delegations, therefore, urges that they set aside technical considerations and give careful study to the possibility of eliminating this whole problem. "We look upon it as a practical arid common sense measure directly in line with the limitation and reduction of armaments which the peoples of the.

world expect us to attack resolutely and successfully." France answered the plea of the United States and Great Britain to abolish submarines with the flat statement by Georges Leygues, minister of marine, that "Prance cannot do without submarines." France and Submarines, He explained this viewpoint, holding that the submarine I a defen alve weapon which the naval powers cannot do without. tibutnjaflne, he saiaTsnould I "i afti always disappointed and reguiaWllkMk VroHem Se aolveafte any otner waranip. At the Washington conference, France, he said, in a spirit of conciliation accepted ratio for capital ships "clearly Inferior to her level which he'r position in the World would have allowed her to reach on the express condition she should keep her entire liberty as concerned defensive ships." 'After asserting that there had no change in the French viewpoint since the Washington conference, he said that France, however, would be willing to discuss a motlpn for abolition of submarines based upon three principles: First, the measure of lawfulness of any weapon of war deriving from the progress of science. Bsc on1, trie light of lesser powers to possess as sovereign states navies corresponding to their requirements and means of their national defense. Third, freedom of the seas.

"We Can't Accept" The French minister concluded that his government believed, however, that the discussion would proceed along other lines. Consequent ly, he said, the French declare "they cannot aocept the abolition of the submarine but they are ready to concur in an International agreement regulating the use of the sub marine and to submit to the conference the following motion: "A committee shall be appointed to prepare an agreement open for signature of all the. naval powers forbidding submarines to act toward merchant ships otherwise than in strict conformity with the rulrt, either presently or in the future to be observed by surface warships." Dlno Orandl, Italian foreign minister, announced, after France had Insisted that she must have submarine, that the Italian government was willing to participate in a discussion for abolition of the tub mertibles. Italy's Position He said the Italian government eonsidera "In the present state of armaments that the abolition of the submarine would favor a stronger navy to the disadvantage of the less powerful, and would unjustly de priv the latter of this weapon without due regard to their possi bilities of defense." Ht said, however, that Italy did hot object in principle to Abolition, "if all the naval powers concurred therein, and if such abolition is to exert decisive Influence in bring lng about that drastic reduction of armament which the whole world desires." Admiral Hyo Takarabe, head of the Japanese admiralty, followed Slgnor Orandl. He declared that the submarine waa a necessary dc tensive and legitimate weapon of warfare but said that Japan would associate herself with a movement to confine activities of submersible within legitimate TWO FLEE; ONE CAUGHT i m.

The place had the atmosphere of a drug store. School or Business? Aviation he touched on lightly. Asked what his attitude toward commercial aviation, he replied "Do more 'experimenting to increase safety before commercializ ing too much." "Do you think a young man grad uated from High school would, derive greater benefit by spending four years at the average modern university or by entering business im mediately?" he was asked. "The way things are today, I should say enter business," was Edi son's reply. A smile spread over Mr.

Edison's features as he read the next ques Hon: "Do you think there is life on other planets besides the earth, and do you think we may some communicate with them?" "I would guess, but won't," he wrote. Prohibition Views "What is the greatest educational force operative today?" was another question. "Young men's desire for a tech nical education," was his reply.

"Not yet," waa his reply.
