The British position was set forth in a formal statement issued by Stanley Baldwin, head of the delegation from the United Kingdom.

The heart of that statement was this paragraph: The representatives of the United Kingdom have put frankly and fully to the dominions the articles on which they desire to secure further ndvantac.es In dominion markets; and they will welcome from the dominions an equally full statement of the corresponding advantages they seek In tho markets of Great Britain."

Miller, banker and lawyer of Utlca, New York, as" the seventh member of Its board of directors. Miller, a Republican, will be elect ed president of tho corporation, filling the post lea by Charles G. Dawes. Announcement of this choice followed a meeting between the president and the corporation directors In the cabinet room of the White House.

Present in addition to the president and Miller, was Atlee Pomereno, Ohio Democrat, whose recent appointment to the corporation's directorate threw nominal control of the board away from the Republican members. Pomerene will be named chairman. Although no longer legal members of the board, Eugene Meyer, former chairman, and Paul Bestor, a former director, also were present, as were all tho directors except Jesse Jones of Houston. The conferees as they left the White house would say nothing except that the election of Pomerene to the chairmanship of the board, as forecast by Mr. Hoover, had not yet taken place.

Between conferences, directors continued to press forward In their task of making loans to needy Industries and to the states for Individual relief. A $3,000,000 loan already has gone forward to Illinois. Pomerene, Miller and Secretary Mills today held an early morning conference with Mr. Hoover at which It was said the former's new duties were discussed.

Three Fliers Die In Mystery Crash Wife of Parliament Member Is Among Victims FARNHAM, Surrey, England, July 28 England's leading aviation experts came here today to discover the cause of a mysterious airplane crash which took the lives of Mrs. Alfred Bossom, wile of the noted architect and member of parliament; her 21-ycar-old son, Bruce, and their guest, the 23-year-old Count Otto Ebrath-Fuerstenati of Germany. The crash, which ocourrcd during a thunderstorm last night as the three were flying from London to Southampton, was preceded by an explosion, according to witnesses. The chief probabilities, according to the experts, were that the ship cither was strutk by lightning or that It suddenly was thrown Into an awkward angle by wild air currents.

The bodies were found several hundred yards apart. An examination ol the fuselage of the ship revealed Its cntlro right side had been torn orf. Indicating the victims were hurled out Instantly. One wing was found a mile away from the main part of tho ship. The ship had been rented In London and was being piloted by Bruce, who had many hours' experience In the air and was planning a trans atlantic flight as well as air Journeys to Australia and South Africa ln an attempt to set records.

Mrs. Bossom was the former Emily Bayne, daughter of the late Samuel O. Bayne, president of the board ot the Seaboard National bank of New-York. She was married ln 1010 to Bossom. Fatty Arbuckle to Attempt Comeback NEW YORK, Jly 28.

Hen-ry Ford has proved to farmers In this vicinity that he knows as much about steam engines as he do about gasoline motors.

Visiting his 1250-acre Lenawee county farm yesterday to view the threshing of wheat and rye, Ford found one of the three old-style steam threshing rigs out of commission. The operator Informed Ford he had sent to the Ford factory for a mechanlo to make repairs. "I know a little about these engines," said Ford. "Let go to work on It." The motor manufacturer shed his coat and vest, crawled about the threshing rig, tore down the ejector, and put It together again In 20 minutes. The engine ran perfectly.

Meantime, In Pittsburgh, James Francis Burke, general counsel for the national committee, spoke of "Democratlo desperation" In an at tack on President Hoover's critics. He said there was "no more amaz ing evidence" of such "Democratic desperation" than the comments of Democratlo leaders on' President Hoover's appointment of ex-Senator Pomerene to tne Reconstruction ri nance corporation. "No matter what the president does." Burke added, "they are deter mined to criticize." Sanders, here to map out eastern campaign plans, said he would spend the week-end at the Coolidge home stead In Plymouth, Vt. "I am not going up there for any specific nurposc." he nut suppose Mr.

Hyde, secretary of agriculture, today declared American grain prices under the farm board have been higher than those enjoyed by raisers elsewhere In tho world. Tho ex-offlclo member of the board challenged as Inaccurate and misleading the testimony given here by grain men before the Shannon house committee Investigating government competition with private business. Hyde also commented In his statement on the demands for abolition of the farm board voiced before the committee by several grain growers, Including Mrs. Ida Watklns, the "Wheat Queen" of Kansas. "Several farmers gave their opinion that the farm board Is a sinful institution and should be abolished," the secretary said.

All they knew was that the price of wheat is heart breaklngly low-cruelly low. Those farmers are not really angry at the farm board, they are mad at the price of wheat. I don't blame them I am. too. It's enough to make a farmer 'curs' his grandmother as well as the farm board, when, after a year's labor, he has to take a price for his product less than It cost to produce.

"Nevertheless, farmers should study the situation closely before they abolish the farm board. And I would recommend that they get the facts and make up their own minds rather than take somebody word a grain dealer for Instance. "Except for the tariff and the farm board, wheat would te 10 cents a bushel cheaper than It Is." Butcher Knife Slayer Planned Alibi SAN JOSE.

On that basts, the British delegation argued that preferential rates of duties imposed by the dominions should be graduated to give United Kingdom products a reasonable chance of competing on even terms and that protective tariffs against United Kingdom products should be only high enough to give a fair opportunity to reasonably efficient dominion industries, American Mew The effect of the British statement was to define the lines of future negotiations between the mother country and the dominions. It came as American Interests, not partici pating In the conference- but here only as observers, began to draft an unofficial statement of their view. The Americana planned to act forth the disadvantages that might result to trade bctw.een the United States and Canada If certain proposals before the conference were agreed to.

As a result of the British statement, It was expected Prime Minister R. B. Bennett of Canada would bring out into the open the list of products on which Canada is willing to give Britain an advantage over the rest of the world.

Hitler Says Democracy Must Die Within Next Few Days Leader of Nationalist Party Wants Restoration of Old Regime BERLIN. July 28 Adolf Hit ler's threat that democracy In Ger many must die within a few days was followed up today by a strong call for "kaiserism" from Dr. Alfred Hugenberg.

leader of the Nationalist party which, with Hitlers National Socialists, is dedicated to putting Germany back In her "place In the sun." "Kaiserism is the country's safest etiaranteo for a clean, strong, right ly As state," Dr. Hugenberg told an i audience In Koenlgsbcrg assembled to hear the Nationalist campaign argument In preparation for the important relchstag elections Sunday, tiwayi Masses The fiery Hitler, who swept Into Berlin by airplane last night, brought forth thunderous cheers from 100.000 persons gathered in the great Berlin stadium by declaring: "July 31 must remove the rule of democrarcy and Marxism and its vassals from Germany, and restore regime of discipline, national conscience, honor and power." Dr. Hugenberg, privy councillor under the old monarchy, declared emphatically that real German manhood never will be developed until universal military training, forbidden by the treaty of Versailles, Is again established. "Compulsory military training always has been the sternest and the best school for the German man," he said. I'artv Jealousy Although the Nationalists and the Hitlerites are united In their demand that Germany be reestablished In her old power, they are far from political unity, as Dr.

Hugenberg indicated by making a Jibe at the Nazi Brown-shirts. "Let's not Imitate other countries," he said. "That applies also to outward things like uniforms and salutes. The simple field gray and the military salute of the old army are closer to our hearts." In his Berlin stadium speech, Hitler attacked the multiplicity of political parties that have arisen In Republican Germany. "We aim," he said, "to sweep the thirty political parties out of the country.

We Germans must be a united people. We are on the eve of great historical decisions. The thirteen vears of decadence (the life i' ot the republic) are nearing an end." 1 ywumors that, as a result of Sun day election, me wcwmi cumum-tion establishing the German republic may be thrown Into the discard, and that consequently there will be no celebration of Constitution day, August 11, were set at rest by an- 1 nouncementa from the federal and Prussian governments that the usual exercises will be held.

Between Danville and Chenoweth Pwners, on Aug. 7. WASHINGTON, July 29. The four wretched encampments which for two months past have housed the bonus army lay burned to earth early this morning, and the veterans that have lived there sought haven ln aark gtreeta, on country roads and the path homeward. One of their1 number had been shot dead by police.

That affray, near the capital ln the afternoon, led to President Hoover's calling upon federal troops to clear the camps which they did with use of tear gas. In late afternoon and early evening, they successfully attacked the three shanty-sltes ln the city proper, applying the torch once the veterans had fallen back. Last night, after It had been decided to hold oft drastla action ln the main Anacostra camp until tomorrow at least, one after another blaze broke out ln huts where the veterans were, and that portion of the city was coat In a lurid glare that could bo seen by the president as he retired at the White House, nnauy It was determined to let the troops comuleto the destruction. They did. and set up a guard there such as was watching over tne otner inree scenes of attack.

VPI Behind a blue mist of tear gas, federal troops today cleared the bonus army from their village In tha shadow of the eanltol, where shortly before one veteran had been snot to death and others Injured In fights with the police.

A few of them nursed minor bruises, the results of their brushes with the police and soldiers, but on the whole the Infantrymen did their work without the exercise of actual physical force. Accompanying cavalrymen, however, rode their horses Into the crowds on occasion to dis perse them. Camps Cleared First a plot of government land at Third and Pennsylvania avenue, scene of the earlier clash with the police, then other camps a few blocks farther from the capltol, were cleared by the soldlcTy and left in smoking ruins. The torch was applied by the military to shacks and tanti left behind by the departed squatters, and the ground made ready for the government building operations which federal authorities had decided should no longer be Interrupted. Walter W.

Waters, the young Ore-gonlnn, who led the bonus march to Washington, disclaimed responsibility for bit followers' resistance to the first eviction order of the police, and said tonight he was through. "The men got out of control." he said. "There was nothing and la nothing I can do to control them."

Charles Hushka said his brother took his discharge papers with him to Washington, where he was slain today ln tho bonus riot.

He did not know what regiment he served with, and other information was in tne locked trunk. Different spelling of the family name was caused by a mistake on William Hashka's naturalisation papers. Mrs. Charles Hushka said: "William went to Washington because he couldn't find a Job. His wife divorced him and has remarried.

Their one daughter, Loretta, was living with her mother the lsst we heard. He told us he might as well go to Washington with a group of Chicago friends as live with us without a Job."
