Washington, March 25 (P)-President Hoover and his new Secretary of State will have their first meeting tomorrow with the arrival of Henry L. Stimson after his long trip from Manila, by way of San Francisco and New York. Mr. Stimson had been invited to the White House today, but after his arrival in New York he found that he would be unable to come to the capital until tomorrow afternoon. The Chief Executive and Mr.

Stimson have a host of subjects to discuss, and in order that they may facilitate the work ahead the new official will be a White House guest for the remainder of the week. The Root formula for American adherence to the World Court, the Mexican situation and European reparations are some of the questions facing Mr. Stimson, but perhaps the foremost is the reorganization of the Diplomatic Corps and the selection of the new high officials of the State Department. Kellogg Going to Europe. Frank B.

Kellogg, who has remained in his post at the urgent request of President Hoover, will be officially relieved of duty when Mr. Stimson takes the oath of office, but he will remain here until Friday, on which date he sails for Europe, where he will spend several weeks on a vacation tour. The new and retiring Secretaries will meet daily so that Mr. Stimson can be acquainted with intimate details of the problems pending before the Department and the actions that have been taken in such current affairs as the Mexican rebellion and the preparations for the preliminary arms conference to be held at Geneva next 1 month. May Have Free Hand.

Repeated statements at the White House that consideration of diplomatic appointments and American adhesion to the World Court on the basis of the Root formula would await Mr. Stimson's arrival have led to the opinion in some quafters that Secretary Stimson is to have a free rein in handling State Department matters. However, there long has been a feeling among some of Mr. Hoover's friends and many politicil observers here that the Chief Executive would closely supervise the operations of the Department even if he did not in fact act as his own Secretary, as did Woodrow Wilson. Silent on Foreign Policy.

Henry L. Stimson, who arrived here yesterday from the Philippines route to Washington to succeed Secretary of State Kellogg, remained in the seclusion of his town house at 120 E. 36th Manhattan, today, clearing up the last of his personal affairs preparatory to his for the Caiptal tomorrow. He declined to discuss the foreign policy of the Hoover Administration. "I cannot tell what policy I will follow until I have consulted with my chief," he said.

"I have formed no plans for the direction of the State Department and will give it no thought until I have had full opportunity to look over the present situation and discuss the matter at full length with the Questioned specifically about the Government's attitude toward the revolt in Mexico, the Colonel replied: "I cannot answer that, either; but I will follow whatever policy the President considers advisable. Colonel Stimson arrived in the city yesterday with Mrs. Stimson after a journey that required a month and a day. PARTY FESTIVITY TURNS TO GRIEF There was no celebration today in the Furst home at 2035 E. 1st Coney Island, as had been planned yesterday morning when Mrs.

Furst returned from a hospital with a girl addition to the family. The festive decorations had been replaced by funeral flowers, a last tribute to Saul, 6.

He rushed the boy to Coney Island Hospital in a taxicab but the child was dead when the hospital was reached.

Carlo Messuri, 19, of 1913 E. 1st driver of the car which ran Saul down, was locked up on a technical charge of homicide for arraienment today in Homicide Court. He said the accident was unavoidable. SUE TO REGAIN LAND APPROPRIATED Engle FOR Barenu. PARK Capitol Building.

Albany, March 25 Injunction proceedings have been instituted against the Palisades Interstate Park Commission to compel the commission to restore property which has been appropriated in Rockland County at Piermont for State park purposes. The case is returnable before the District Court, Southern District, on April 6. The suit is brought by the Sparkill Realty Corporation, owners of valuable trap rock property at Pierpont, and the Standard Trap Rock Corporation, which contends it had invested $1,000,000 to develop a quarry on the site before the Park Commission stepped in to appropriate the land for park purposes. The Standard Corporation leased the property from the Sparkill Company. Freeport K.

Louisville, March 25 (P)- Floods rushing down from the Cumberland Mountain watersheds took a toll of 37 lives in southeastern Kentucky and northeastern Tennessee over the weekend, while tornadoes and storms spread death over four other Southern States, bringing the South's death toll to 49 and possibly more.

Tennessee was the hardest hit, with 31 known deaths. Kentucky has six. Alabama five Negro children killed in a tornado. Two Negroes were killed Georgia by a tornado and a white man by lightning. Three Negroes were killed in Mississippi in a storm.

A boy was killed in North Carolina by a storm. Mountain streams in eastern Kentucky and Tennessee receded as rapidly as they rose and trapped their victims. Twenty persons mostly women and children, were lost when the Emery River at Harriman, left its banks at 3 o'clock yesterday morning. Kentucky's death toll was heaviest in Knox and Bell Counties, where five lives were taken by the sudden freshet. Three were drowned near Barbourville, and two near Pineville.

One was drowned in Perry County. Hundreds of families are without homes in the Kentucky and Tennessee mountains. All coal mines in these sections, were automatically closed Blankets and other National Guard equipment from the Frankfort arsenal and other arsenals in Kentucky are being forwarded to the flooded areas under orders from Governor Flem D. Sampson. While property damage will run into millions of dollars, no attempt at official estimate has been made.

Levees Still Threatened. Chicago, March 25 -The Mississippi and Missouri rivers still threatened to batter down levees and overrun their banks today as patrolmen and apprehensive residents watched eagerly for signs of relief. The Quincy, district that had watched expectantly for the Mississippi to fall for several days was again disappointed last night when the river had reached 20.3 feet, the highest since 1903. Denver, March 25 (P) -The mountainous area of southwestern Colorado was buried under another deep snow following yesterday's storm. Several mining towns in the San Juan Basin (Colorado) were isolated by slides that buried railroad tracks under 20 to 40 feet of snow, traffic was paralyzed in others and industries were at a standstill.

S. immigration officer, was shot fatally Saturday night in the river version of gangland's ride. Roberts was shot, dragged into a boat and thrown out on a dock at Port ton, by rum runners.

"Vet" Brown, named by Roberts before he died as the man who shot and abducted him, was arrested yesterday at Sombra, and released to Michigan authorities. Roberts was shot when he and W. J. Stoutmeyer, deputy collector of customs at Algonac, came upon a crew of men unloading load of liquor on the shore of the St. Clair River.

As they approached four shots were fired and Roberts fell across the gunwale. He was pulled into the boat, which backed into the river and disappeared.

She was pronounced dead. Her son was unable to account for his mother's act. mates were found by the police of the Gates ave, station who conducted an investigation. It is believed she was despondent because of falling health LINDBERGH BLAMES MOST AIR MISHAPS ON POOR PILOTING Lack of Intrastate Control and Inadequate Training in Civil Schools Deplored. "A majority of the accidents in flying due to faulty pilotage," said Col.

Charles Lindbergh in speaking recently on safety in the sir and how it is best advanced. His statement is regarded as im- portant in view of the mystery surrounding the cause of the recent disaster near Newark in which 14 persons were killed when a trimotored ship piloted by Lou Foote crashed into a sandcar on a siding. Advocating a careful study and improvement of conditions which allow such happenings, the Colonel said: "There are two methods of decreasing these accidents by the training and regulation of pilots and by advance in aerodynamic design of aircraft so that less is required of the operator and more of the airplane." A definite standard of flying instruction, State adoption of Federal flying regulations, and the development of commercial training planes and suitable location of training fields would result in greater safety, the Colonel said. "Accidents due to improper training will continue to an excessive degree as long as Federal inspectors have no control over intrastate flying activity." He declared that the commercial flying school was one of the most important problems confronting aviation today. "Most of our pilots in the past received at least a major portion of their training in military schools, but with the rapid advance in commercial flying the supply of these men has become inadequate.

Consequently it has become necessary to draw from pilots who have not had the opportunity of attending military institutions but who have received their instruction in commercial schools. "Students are graduated from some flying courses with 10 hours or so in the air. These men cannot operate under Federal license, but in a number of States they can carry on commercial flying with passengers, provided they do not cross the State boundary." This practice is in the opinion of Colonel Lindbergh not a good one. Today's Scratches AT KEENEY PARK.

Albany, March 25 Governor Roosevelt may yet get his own gas tax bill, without, however, the provision providing for a 20 percent reduction of the income tax. In an effort to break the deadlock within the Republicans' own ranks and to force into line a trio of upState county leaders who have succeeded so far in blocking gas tax legislation, the legislative leaders here have opened negotiations with Governor Roosevelt with a view possibly to passing the Democratic bili instead of their own.

The leaders, still hammering away at William L. Ward of Westchester, Harry J. Bareham of Monroe, and Fred' Bradley of Erie in an effort to bring them and their representatives in the two houses back to party regularity, let it be known today that Governor oRosevelt nas consented to strike out the income tax reduction provision of his bill if the Republicans want to pass it for hira, Bills Are Similar. It would be easy to pass the Governor's bill with an alliance of Democrats and Republicans, against the insurgent Republicans. The two bills, aside from the income tax cut, are very similar.

The cities get even less out of the Governor's bill than they do out of the Republican organization bill, however. It is alleged discrimination against the cities and more populous counties that led to the insurgency in the Republican ranks. The leaders are in hopes that the threat of passing the Governor's bill will force the members from Westchester, Rochester and Buffalo into line. The Republican leaders also are urging the Governor to submit the dispute over the constitutionality of certain features of the budget to the Court of Appeals rather than to veto the appropriation measure again. If these two questions can be settled, the Legislature will adjourn probably Thursday afternoon.

The Legislature must act upon by Thursday, or finally ignore, the subjects of tax equalization, prohibition enforcement. development of the St. Lawrence River power resources, multiple dwelling legislation and the legality of passage of appropriation bills before final action has been taken on the budget. A long array of measures of lesser degree is appended to this program. Prohibition enforcement, after remaining beveath the legislative sea for months, reared into sight in the closing days.

Last week a Republican party county option enforcement measure, accompanied by the statement of party leaders that it was to be submitted for passage only in the event the Jenks measure failed, was introduced in the Senate, Confidence was expressed that it would be passed in the Senate: Assembly passage was considered probable but not certain. Action remains to be taken by the Legislature on the multiple dwelling bills submitted by the special commission delegated to study the matter. The measure this year has been amended and modified from the more rigid and inclusive draft of last year. The bill now has been drawn to apply only to New York City.
