PROGRESS MADE IN PEACE PARLEY Four Other Powers Aiding China and Japan to Reach Agreement ADVENTISTS DECLINE POPE'S INVITATION Cant Accept Roman Catholic Faith, They Say WASHINGTON, March 19 (A- P--The invitation of Pope Plus for Protestants to return to the Roman Catholic faith, has been turned down by the executive committee of the general conference of Seventh-Day Adventists.

In resolutions made public today, the committee called attention to differences In doctrine between the two churches and added: It Is perfectly apparent, even to the casual reader, that It would be just as Impossible for us to become members of the Roman Catholic Church as it would be for the Pope to become a member of our church. Inasmuch as our doctrines are so absolutely at variance. We cannot accept a call for unity which Involves the violation of our the truth of the Gospel. POLICE TAKE RED JOHNSON ON TOUR OF LINDBERGH PLACE Continued From the First Pag correct, said Col H. Norman Schwarzkopf, superintendent of State Police.

They are not being held In connection with the case. Schwarzopf said that when It was decided to bring Johnson to the estate last night he arrived tired and so was permitted to sleep before detectives began examining him. He is being questioned this morning, Schwarzkopf said. His statement indicates he had been to Hope-well several times and It is desired to take him over the ground to verify the statement. His status has not changed and he is not under arrest by the New Jersey authorities on any charge, but is still held on a detainer lodged against him by the immigration authorities.

New Theory Advanced A new theory set detectives to work yesterday. It is that the abductors fooled pursuit by substituting the child for another. The police think it possible they already had one of the same age. The custodians of the Lindbergh infant would then have to send their own child away. That is why two detectives from Newark were in Washington last night checking passport records on the chance the child may have been sent to a foreign country.

Other Tips Followed The detectives also visited Baltimore on a tip the custodians real child may have been sent to Europe on the Baltimore mail liner City of Baltimore, which departed for Havre the day after the kidnaping. Ten children were on the ship, the line officials said, and one was about the Lindbergh baby's age. Meanwhile the pursuit of countless leads and tips went on. An alarm was sent out when some one reported he saw three men drive through Keyport, with a hole-punched box from which cries of a baby came. In Pocatello, Ida, Ignace Blaustein recanted his story that he drove the automobile for th- kidnapers.

Two servants who quit their jobs in Franklin Park. the day after the kidnaping were found and explained their movements satisfactorily. The servants, Paul and Katie Engstenberg, had gone to new posts In Bryn Mawr, Penn. Two persons out of a steady stream of men and women seen to enter and leave the office of Police Capt Hjnry Gauthier in Jersey City were recognized as Johansen Junge, friend of Johnson, and the sailor's brother, ho lives In Hartford, Conn. They left after several hours.

Police, however, refused to discuss the incident, or even to admit that Junge and Johnson were questioned. LEARNS IDENTITY OF CHILD WHO SAILED ON STEAMER BALTIMORE, March 19 (A. Lieut Lo H. Vogelsang of the Baltimore Detective Bureau has reported solving the matter which brought two Newark detectives to Baltimore Thursday. looking for clews to the Lindbergh baby.

He found out, after a days Investigation, he said late last night, that a child who sailed from here on the Baltimore Mail Line steamer City of Baltimore March 2 was Frances Quir-back, the 2-year-old daughter of a biitler, and a. maid now employed in York, Penn. It was this Incident which led Investigators to Baltimore. The childs parents, Mr and Mrs Frederick Quirback, lived here for several years. When they went to York they left their child with Mrs Rose Vanverberg of Hamilton, a suburb.

On the parents Instructions, Vogelsang said, Mrs Vanverberg put Frances aboard the City of Baltimore, which sailed the day after the Lindbergh kidnaping, and sent her off on a visit to Quirbacks mother in Germany. Frances arrived in Hamburg safe and sound March 15, according to the detective official. Detective Sergt Vogelsang said today he received a telephone message from detective Strong of Newark, furnishing him with additional information regarding the Baltimore angle of the kidnaping case and asking him to run down all possible leads. John Hoffman, chef of an exclusive Baltimore club, was questioned last night by detectives here in connection with two couples being investigated in the Lindbergh kidnaping case. The 'detectives made it clear Hoffman was not questioned concerning the kidnaping but merely conctrning the background of the couples, friends of his for a number of years.

LINDBERGH BABY SCULPTOR RECEIVES POISONED CANDY NEW YORK, March 19 (A. McLeary, sculptor, who recently modelled a bust of the Lindbergh baby from newspaper photos, was recovering today from what was believed to be an attempt to poison her.

Over the police radio officer Floyd Culllngs pleaded last night with the mother, Mrs W. I.

Brown, grief stricken over the loss of her husband and son and facing poverty, to abandon her plan of death. Last February the police received a letter, written by 12-year-old Harud Brown. It read Who Is the police officer with the pleasant voice who always ends his calls with: Thats all? We are away up here near Boulder Creek In the Santa Cruz Mountains, mother and my kid sister and and we always feel safer. when we hear him. I am only 12 years old, but my daddy Is dead and I am all the man they have.

Culllngs sent a picture of his family and himself to the lad. Yesterday he received a letter from Mrs Brown, telling of the death of RAILROADS NEEDS PROVIDIED FOR Continued From the First Page purchases of supplies, and at the same time to establish confidence in the security of the bonds which are the reliance of great trustee institutions of the United States, which are in fact the property of the entire people. The end to be attained is, tnere-fore, one of increased employment on one hand and stability in the financial structure of the country on the other. The coordination of programs and policies has been arrived at by the Government and the railway agencies to effect these results. GARNER INDORSES SALES TAX BILL Continued From the First Page necessity.

No man can call himself a patriot who in the face of so overwhelming a crisis can give heed to his own political fortunes or to the viewpoint of particular groups or sections. The general interests of the country. as a whole, will be a safeguard to our feet in this vital matter. As for myself, I say now that if the need, I am ready to yield temporarily every economic opinion I have ever held to reach that goal the financial salvation of my country. Knowing, as I do, the high character of the membership of this Congress, Republicans as well as Democrats, I do not for a moment doubt that the goal will be reached.

The statement was handed out at Speaker Garners regular conference with newspapermen, shortly before the House convened for its second day of the reading of the bill for amendment. Income Tax Increases Criticized Confronted by the victories of bipartisan opponents of the sales tax in writing into the revenue bill yesterday heavy increases in surtaxes and high bracket incomes, the leaders of both parties today were seeking to realign their forces. Acting Chairman Crisp of the Ways and Means Committee said before the House met that the Treasury estimated' only $30,000,000 would be added to the national revenue by the amendments adopted yesterday. That isnt much compared with the $600,000,000 the sales tax is estimated to bring in, he said. The increase from 6 to 7 percent on Incomes over $8000 will bring in and the wartime surtaxes will yield only $10,000,000.

Decision has been made to resist any attempt to send the bill back to the Ways and Means Committee for insertion of substitutes for the $600,000,000 sales tax provision. Substitutes Proposed Representatives Doughton, Dem, of North Carolina, and La Guardia, Rep, of New York, plan to seek to send the bill back to the Ways and Means Committee for substitution of taxes on luxuries for the sales levy. Their program was described ny Representative Snell of New York, the Republican leader, as worse than the sales tax. La Guardia announced today he would propose also a large increase in the tax on stock transfers. He said he would try to force an increase of this tax to one-quarter of 1 percent of the sale price, with a minimum of 4 cents a share.

The Ways and Means Committee rate Is 4 cents a share. In anything like an approach to normal conditions this sources of revenue will bring in an enormous amount of taxes, La Guardia said. NEEDHAM TOWN. MEETING TO BE HELD MONDAY NIGHT NEEDHAM, March 19 The annual town meeting will be held in the Town Hall Monday night at 7:30 oclock. The town warrant has 32 articles and the Finance Committee report to be discussed.

I PSYCHOLOGY LECTURE DELIVERED AT M. I.T. Adventures in Industrial Psychology was the subject of the fourth Aldred lecture delivered at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, yesterday afternoon, by Dr Walter V. Bingham, director of the Personnel Research Foundation in New York. Dr Bingham gave a thumb-rule definition of science as a precise determination of the relationships between variables.

He said that two concepts found in science, namely measurement and correlation, were necessary for the successful culmination of the work of psychologists. He said psychology needed a more precise yardstick with which to measure human attitudes, but industrial managements should use even the crude yardsticks already available.

SPRING TOMORROW, BUT ONLY IN NAME Snowstorm Likely, With Cold to Follow The vernal equinox, separating Winter from Spring, will officially arriv at 2:54 tomorrow, with anything but Spring-like weather, in the opin. ion of the Weather Bureau officials.

The vernal equinox is the exact instant of the sun apparent crossing the Equa. tor on its way northward. At that time night and day are of equal length. The Instant also marks the beginning of Fall to the countries south of the Equator. From present indications overcast skies are probably for tomorrow, with a possibility of some snow.

In fact, clear weather looms for Boston and it vicinity before the first of next week. Cloudy weather set in over Greater Boston early today, and by noon snow squalls occurred, enough so to cause the streets to become slippery. It wag a part of a disturbance central early today over Parry Sound, which is headed toward Boston.

FOR OTHR DEATH NOTICES SEE PAGE 15 NAVY NIGHT MEETING or to persuade him to do it for lofty motives than to do it against his will.

Thats what that talk of limiting expenditures and of making battleships obsolete is all about. When two billions of dollars are spent in this country for various and sundry things is hardly honest to say that replacements cannot be made when 90 percent of the money spent on ships goes to labor. Under the present Administration, non-military expenditures have been increased 30 percent and military expenditures have decreased 2 percent. It seems clear that the rising cost of Government is not -because of the Navy. Too long has it been the scapegoat of the for talk of costs is buncombe.

Mr Myers' Reply Mr Myers said he was against the idea of America disarming so as to set a good example. He decried Japans aggression in China and said he hoped the other Nations would stick to their agreement not to recognize the advantages that Japan has gained. Personally I dont care how they make it stick. He said he did not hope for any millenium peace, but said that the peace he could foresee is a process projected on a national and international beajo such as occurs in our daily life, in which our relations are often disrupted without resulting in fisticuffs. He said that war was a means to political end, and that as civilians were responsible for political ends, it was fitting that they, rather than militarists, have charge of disarmament negotiations and national defense.

Church People Call for Navy First Admiral Coontz said that the biggest talk against an adequate navy came from the people who were the first to want missionaries rescued by the navy when war does break out He said that in 1922, for the first time, a naval policy was drawn up for this country and approved by President Harding. The first item of this policy was that a navy be created second to none. He said that this policy had not been lived up to, particularly because of opposition from the inland States. By Dec 31, 1936, be said, Japan would be on a parity with the United States under present plans. He explained that superiority of design has much to do with naval strength as well as tonnage.

He said that all of our destroyers, most of our submarines and all our six-inch cruisers are of prewar design and we will especially be behind in those classes by 1936. We are in extreme danger of becoming the third naval Power." he said. He said he didnt like the London naval agreement, but that it was the law of the land and that he would stand by it. The quicker we build up to the limits of this agreement the surer we will keep out of trouble, he said. China is a good example of what unpreparedness brings.

If we keep losing tonnage every day well soon be in the same fix. We have 6 percent of the worlds population and 30 percent of the wealth. It is better that we build up the navy than spend money on Federal roads, on which only the rich can ride. We are the easy marks of the world, in the opinion of the other Nations. Trade, in my judgment, is the cause of nine wars out of 10.

As for economic boycotts, nothing could bring on war any quicker." Police Headquarters and they will be there until Monday. Warrants charge Shibley with armed robbery and larceny, and the other two with being accessories before and after the fact of the robbery. Bonds of $50,000 will be asked for by Chief Pollock. SLIGHT FIRE IN FAMOUS NOTRE DAME CATHEDRAL PARIS, March 9 (A. There was a small fiire today in the basement of the famous Notre Dame Cathedral.

The damage was slight and the incident di dnot Interfere with the consecration of Mgr Rene Graffin as bishop. DUMB-BELLS CHIEF SPEAKERS AT William Howard Gardiner, president of the Navy League, and Admiral Robert E. Coontz, U. S. retired, who was official advisor to the Secretary of the Navy during the Washington naval conference, were lined up im a debate against Denys P.

Myers, director research of the World Peace Foundation, at the Navy Night meeting held at Gardner Auditorium last night, under the auspices of the Army and Navy Club. Mr Gardiner and Admiral Coontz were united in their plea for an American Navy of full treaty strength and were firm In the belief that an adequate navy is necessary for wars that are inevitable. Mr Myers did not differ with them as greatly as the audience had expected. Mr Gardiner and Admiral Coontz both demanded a navy built up to treaty strength, pointing out that 90 percent of the expenditures for ships goes to labor, and that it is Just as bad for a Nation to destroy the balance by being less than treaty strength as it is to be of more than treaty strength. To this Mr Myers said: I have no objection personally to building up to treaty limit.

Japan is 9000 miles away from Europe. The same goes for Washington.

Her answer to their protests-and ours is yeah! Now England has 25 percent transoceanic trade and 75 percent coastwise trade. We have 75 percent transoceanic trade and only 25 percent coastwise. England wants small ships, and naturally wants us to have nothing but small ships. She wants this, of course, so that we cant use our chief tool, Rudyard Kipling told a meeting cf British shipbuilders at the time of the London conference that it is cheaper to have your enemy cut his own throat RECOVER $1645 IN SOUTH END RAID Continued From the First Page of 40 Union-pk st, Boston; Edward McCaffrey, 36, of 12 Puffer st, and illiam H.
