BRITAIN FORMALLY
DEMIDS THE RIGHT
HAVE URGE FLEET
NEGOTIATIONS NOW STRAINED
ALMOST TO THE BREAKING
POINT
GENEVA, July 12. (TP)—With Great
Britain and Japan deadlocked and
standing pat on their cruiser tonnage
demands, the fate of the three power
arms limitation conference is hang
ing in balance and will probably be
determined one way or other at Fri
day’s meeting of the executive com
mittee. The Japanese delegation
showed great determination, clinging
to the IT. S. demands for limiting
Great Britains cruiser strength to
250,000 tons minimum figure set by
the United States. Great Britain was
equally persistent in its claims for
560,000, the tonnage allotment claim
ed necessary for adequate protection
of its far flung empire. The United
States made a final proposal to reach
a compromise. Each nation under
the new proposal would be allowed
18 boats of ten thousand tons and
other cruisers of unnamed tonnage
totalling 220,000 tons. The outcome]
of the conference depends on Great
Britains willingness to accept the
compromise figure. If a refusal is
made, the conference will probably
adjourn. It was considered likely
that Great Britain would present a
new compromise of its own manu-1
facture, Friday.

EVERY MINUTE OF WILD
WESTERN EXHIBITION
BLAOK HILLS, S. D., July 12. (/P)
—President Coolidge wearing a 1C
gallon sombrero laughed and applaud,
jed the daring stunts of wild riding
Western cowboys as they ran off a
panorama of exciting and dangerous
pleasures of plainmen at the State
rodeo. The. President was presenl
as the chief attraction in spite of ap
peals from anti-rodeo associations
not to attend and he appeared to eu.
joy every minute of the hair-raising
program from riding of wild horses
and steers to the episode when a
jovial cowboy rode up close and shout
ed “Howdy Cal”. One of the most
impressive ceremonies which seemed
to give Mr. Coolidge a cool and a
warm moment was the war dance by
100 Omaha Indians who ran within
20 feet of the President, waving
aloft their razor edged tomahawks
and shreiking the terrible war cry.
