ANOTHER ILL BABY DIES Third, Crittenton Infant Is Victim of Mysterious Malady A third baby of the Florence Crittenton Home died today from the strange illness the nature and persistence of which have baffled physicians since Monday. The baby boy who died today at Children’s Hospital was taken there with two others yesterday, according to Miss Jean Cole, superintendent of the home, and the three, together with two already there, were given blood transfu sions as a last resort. Three other babies at the home are less seriously ill, Miss Cole said today, admitting that two of the cases developed since yester day. Disease Still Is Puzzle Miss Cole said the nature of the intestinal ailment, which already has killed three-babies, is still baf i fling the physicians and herself, and I that no new features have develop jed. She says no nurses or others 'at the home are ill, and that every I precaution is being taken with the babies to reduce the epidemic, i The Board of Health has absolved the home of all blame, and the care and expert attention given the babies by Miss Cole and her assist ants have been officially commend ed. A post mortem examination, conducted by Doctor Herbert E. Martyn, deputy coroner, has dis closed no trace of poison. Further examination of specimens from sick babies will not be completed until next week. It is feared, however, that possible germs in the speci mens will be dead and impossible to identify. Doctor ,J. G. Cummings, of the Bureau of Communicable Diseases, said. "Unless specimens of a disease are obtained at an early stage of the malady, the diagnosis is some- I times lost entirely and the epi j demic remains a mystery. I cer i tainly want to find out what this j disease is and I am making every i attempt to diagnose it.” Condition Unchanged The hospital report to Miss Cole today said the condition of the four other babies given blood transfusions there was unchanged. In three of the cases, mothers furnished the blood for their babies. Doctor P. H. McLendon, staff specialist at the home; Doctor Harry A. Ong and Doctor E. D. Brooks, other prominent specialists, are at tending the sick babies. Unless it is an especially violent form of dysentery, the exact na ture of the malady apparently is not known. Its chief features are its rapid changes. Vomiting and diarrhea are factors, together with a deathly weakness. Two of the babies who died had been ill but a few hours. Analyses of the stomachs and kidneys of the dead babies have been made by Doctor T. M. Price. He reports that no poisonous sub stance could be located. No Impuri ties were found in the milk, accord ing to the report by Doctor John Noble, bacteriologist. Although the illness of the babies has been described by Doctor I*. A. 1 McLendon, attending physician at the home, as a seasonal disorder, 1 all precautions are being taken against a spread of the ailment. MK9mOHES No. 13,356 o WASHINGTON, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1925 ggja* THREE CENTS| rams m SCOHED If IM Mine Workers’ Chief Blames Them for Reign of Terror in Coal Industry By International News Service FAIRMONT, W. Va., Sept. 26. A broadside attack against certain bituminous coal operators, whom he charged with violating the Jacksonville agreement, was launch ed here today by John L. Lewis, nead of the United Mine Workers, at a great mass meeting of miners, designed to be the opening wedge in the miners’ greatest effort to unionize the fields of West Vir ginia. "This agreement has been dis honored and impaired to a degree which reveals moral turpitude upon the part of a group of coal opera tors who are seeking to escape tnelr contractual obligations upon the flimsy grounds of business ex pediency,” Lewis chaged. Led by me Pittsburgh Coal Company, and the Consolidation Coal Company, the two largest coal producing companies in the United States. 1 numerous operators in western and central Pennsylvania and northern West Virginia have repudiated the agreement and have struck down the wage structure of the industry. Community Terrorism “They have torn up their wage contracts; they have closed their mines for long periods in order to starve their employes into submis sion; they have evicted their em ployes from their homes; they haW manned their properties with armed mine guards, searchlights, barbed* wire fences, stockades and such paraphernalia of war. Thejf have resorted to the use of unfriendly courts and have sought to bind the workers hand and foot by the is suance of court injunctions, strip ping the worker of nearly every right guaranteed him under the Constitution. They have, in sub stance and effect, conducted a cam paign of community terrorism in the isolated mining villages. Lewis said that some of the in dividual operatois who had violated the agreement were men of national importance. “The Jacksonville agreement was negotiated with the ad and co operation of high Government offi cials.” Lewis added. “By the same token the industry has a right to expect that moral influence and power of those same Government officials will be ut.lized to preserve the integrity of the agreement and to maintain in the public weal the tranquil’ty of the coal industry. The mine workers simply ask :hat those operators who executed the three-year wage agreement with the United Mine Workers be com pelled to live up to their contracts Workers to Fight “It is the purpose of the organ ized mine porkers to exercise their I WELCH’S TERM CUT TO SB MONTHS Judges at Leonardtown Re fuse to Release Alleged Vic tim of Bootlegger’s Plot Acting on an appeal of Sidney Welch, 2717 Alabama avenue, sup ported by Wayne B. Wheeler, set ting forth that Welch was “rail roaded” into jail by bootleggers. Judges Diggs. Mattingly and Logan in Circuit Court at Leonardtown, Md., today reaffirmed the guilty verdict originally rendered in the case, but cut the sentence* imposed from eighteen to six months in jail. The judges stated that, in their I opinion, Welch was guilty of the assault charge brought by J. C. Mattingly and that he was not the victim of a “frame-up” by boot ieggers of St. Mary’s county, Md., in retaliation fur his activities I against him. They took into consideration, however, certain extenuating cir cumstances in the case and decided that the eighteen-rnonth sentence was too stff. Welch was sentenced September 11, to serve the eighteen rnonth sentence. Welch was released from the House of Correction several days ago under S3OO bond, furnished by prohibition officials. Trial of the, appeal occupied al most all of the da.y yesterday and Welch was released on the same bond when the Judges announced they would render their final deci sion today. Welch claims that Mattingly, who swore out the warrant was actual ly the promulgator of the alleged assault, which occurred near Chap- tico, Md., several weeks ago. When he sought to have Mat tingly arrested,\ he says, he was seized by a mob of fifty men who drove him to a deserted farmhouse, and there beat him into unconsci ouesness, practically demolished his car, and then left him to get back to town as best he could. Mattingly in his complaint charged that Welch had provoked an argument with him and struck him with a pair of “steel knuckles.” The case had attracted much at tention in Maryland and has re sulted in a campaign by prohibition workers to “clean up St. Mary’s county” which they charge is over run with bootleggers and saturated with stills. Welch’s fight for freedom was conducted by State Senator L. G. Sasscer. Havre de Grace Scratches FIRST RACE—Silver Blaze. SECOND RACE—Grolto, Revolt, Bernice, Harrar, Deadfall, Button, Bright.

Judge Disapproves of Gay Garters Worn By School Girls NEW YORK, Sept. 26.—A pair of gaudy orange-hued gar ters, worn by two high school girls, came in for stern disap proval from Judge Burke in Orange, N. J., police court. The two girls, it was testified, had been engaged in a fist fight, revealing to the onlookers the brilliant article of attire. The court delivered this dictum: “A request will be made to the board of education to see that their girl pupils dress more modestly in future.” WENTurON MEHLHORN AT9TH Champion Starts Round With Eagle and Birdie, But Lead Is Cut Down CHICAGO, Sept. 26.—Walter Hagen, of Pasadena, Fla., got away to a good start in defense of his pro golf crown today against “Billy” Mehlhorn, of Chicago, with an eagle 3 on the first hole of the final match in the championship tournament of the Professional Golf ers’ Association at Olympia fields. Mehlhorn’s drive was 250 yards into the rough, Hagen’s straight l and 15 yards longer. The cham pion’s iron second was 50 feet over the flag, from which he sank a downhill putt, while Mehlhorn took a brassie and two putts for a 4, one under par. Hagen, partly stymied by Mehl horn's ball, sank a seventy-foot putt for a birdie 3 at the second hole, putting him 2 up, then got a par 4 on the third and was 3 up. With both balls carrying mud as the result of a drizzle, they halved the fourth in par 4. Mehlhorn sank a fpurteen-foot birdie 3 on the fifth and was only 2 down when Hagen missed from twelve feet away. They halved the 150-yard sixth in par 3 despite a heavy downpour of rain. Mehlhorn missed the cup by an inch on the seventh and they halved the hole in par 4, Hagen being still 2 up. The eighth also was halved in Par 3. Mehlhorn sank a forty-footer for a birdie 3 on the ninth ’and they rounded the turn with Hagen only 1 up. The cards: °HnK.‘n 3 3444343 4—32 Mehlhorn .....44643343 3—33 The 111-Fated S-51.

SENTNER By International News Service LAKEHURST, N. J., Sept. 26.—A pall of gloom hung over the naval board of inquiry as news of the dis aster to tho marine S-51, off Boston whei ourt reconvened today to conti. its investigation into the cause of aonther naval tragedy —the breaking In two of the dirigible Shenandoah on September 3 with the loss of Commander Zachary Lansdowne and eleven members of the crew. The court directed its questioning of the Shenandoah survivors in an attempt to confirm the statement of James H. Collier, chief rigger, that a gas cell was ruptured before the airship collapsed. August C. Quernheim, machinist mate, was the first witness called. He testified that he saw a gas cell deflated at the time of the crash. Whole Cell Collapsed “The lower part of the gas cell cupped up as they do and then the whole cell dropped down,” Quern heim said. The witness said he was not sure whether this was before or after the Shenandoah broke. Quernheim described the incident as “a sudden collapse of the cell.” “What did you formerly notice about cell No. 10?” Lieutenant Com mander Rosendahl. senior surviving officer of the Shenandoah asked. “It was so tight I could lean against it and support my weight,” the witness answered. Cell No. 10 was described by Col lier as being deflated before the ship broke, while cell No. 8 was fully inflated. William A. Russell, chief ma chanist’s mate, was called next. ROME-TOKYO FLIGHT IS MADE BY ITALIAN TOKYO, Sept. 26.—Major Fran cisco De Pinedo, Italian aviator, successfully completed his Rome to- Tokyo flight late this afternoon when he lan4ed at Kasumigaura air field. His lost hop was a short one. He was accorded a great welcome. Death Is Held Accident Coroner J. Ramsey Nevitt has issued a certificate of accidental death in the case of George W. Landon, sixty-seven, a plasterer whose home is at 1205 K street northwest. He died yesterday at tne Georgetown Hospital from a fractured skull. Landon fell from a alx foot ladder at Western Hign School the day school opened. j J| m|| EDITION ABSENCE OF O'L ON SURFACE Mi E5 NAVY’S HOPtS By International News Service. NEW LONDON, Conn., Sept. 26.—The luck of the navy stands today as the one last hpoe that the thirty-four men who went down with the submarine S-51, when she was rammed by the steamship City of Rome last night, may still be alive. Hopes for the rescue of the men hang upon re ports of a patch of oil. Captain Diehl, of the City of Rome, reported that a spot of oil was the only trace left of the S-51 after she went down. Ordi narily this would mean that the submarine had been punctured and had sunk, with her crew drowned by the inrushing flood waters as she hurtled to the bottom. Later reports, however, received from naval ves sels searching for traces of the S-51, stated that no traces of oil had been found on the waters where the S-51 went down. This fact was immediately seized upon by officers here and buoyed up their hopes, and now they are depending upon the luck of the navy, for they say that had the vessel been badly punctured the exud ing oil would have remained upon the waters for hours. MAY HAVE CLOSED COMPARTMENTS. They believe it possible that the crew of the S-51, im mediately after being rammed, were able to close the water-tight compartments and hatches, but in water-tight comparments and with sufficien air in the chambers to keep the men alive for many hours. Coast charts indicate that the water where the S-51 was sunk is but 127 feet deep, and officers here are of the opinion that if the vessel can be located that it will only be a few hours before she can be raised to the surface, possibly liberating many of the thirty-four men who went down with their ship. A salvage ship has already been dispatched from Bos ton and it is hoped that operations for lifting the sunken submarine may start this afternoon. The Navy Department has authorized the of pri vate salvage vessels and the hiring of divers, and no effort will be spared to determine at the earliest possible moment the fate of the men now officially listed as missing. t Naval surface vessels, submarines and aircraft are searching the waters in the vicinity of the dis aster striving to accurately locate the submerged submersible, but as yet no reports have been given which offer tangible evidence of the exact location of the sunken sub mersible, although the eyes of the navy are scrutinizing every bit of flotsam and jetsam uppn the waves in hopes that they may find some signal shot to the surface from the torpedo* tubes of the TKS-51. Officers Not Downhearted. Once the vessel is located offi cers state that it will be easy to establish ignal communications with her crew, if they still live. Delicate instruments for sub marine communication and sound detection are on board the search ing ships. The officers' quarters and the men’s barracks here are not alto gether downhearted, for they are hoping against hope that Lieuten ant Dobson and his men may be found alive, just as Commander Rodgers and his men on the naval plane PN-9 were found alive when they had been considered lost. Valuable Information for the searchers may be expected when the City of Rome docks at Boston this afternoon. The stories of the three survivors and the report of Captain Diehl may give an indication as to the probable fate of the submarine and its crew. The City of Rome wUs bound from Savannah to Boston Wiien she crashed into the submarine at 10:24 o'clock last night. She was in Boston at 2 o’clock this afternoon. The liner was little damaged in the collision, according to brief radio messages to the Tropical Radio Company here. The submarine left New London, Conn., Friday ajfternoon. on a twenty-four-hour “sea run,” a prac tice trip frequently ordered for sub marines to keep officers and erew familiar with handling their craft In the open sea. Lieutenant Rodney M. Dobson, voung junior grade officer living in New York State, commanded the S-51, according to officers at the Charleston navy yard. It was believed the submarine was running on the surface of the water when the liner dealt it the death blow and that the three who escaped and were picked up by the City of Rome’s boats were the first to reach the open hatch before the submarine’s speedy plunge to the bottom. May Have Missed Lights Naw yard officers believed it possible that the lookout on the liner missed the lights on the low-lying craft. The S-51. a first-line submarine of 1500 tons displacement, sub merged, was built at Bridgeport, Conn., by the Lake Submarine Com pany arid launched in 1921. Her last assignment Atlantic Pa- trol, Division No. with base at New London. The submarine counted five tv/enty-one aad

The City of Rome Is a ship more than twice the tonnage of the sub marine. She is 309 feet in length and draws nineteen feet of water. Captain Diehl, commander of the liner, dispatched the messages to New London which told the first story of the disaster. Four Other U-Boats At Scene —Officers Hoping for Rescues NEW LONDON, Conn., Sept. 26. Aboard four sister ships of the luck less submarine. S-51, fellow pallors today sought the steel tomb which held her crew— sought and listened Intently for the faint undersea tap ping that would tell them some of the men were still alive. The four submarines all "S-boats,” nut out from the New Londoh naval base before dawn, followed shortly by a mine sweeper. The craft are the 8-3, 8-10, S-49 had 8-50, all sister ships of the stricken craft, and the mine sweeper Ewing. Twenty fathoms deep in Block Island sound lay the object of their quest, the steel hulk of the stricken craft. Despite the swift rush which car ried the 8-51 to the bottom after she was rammed by the steamer City of Rome, it was hoped that possibly some- of the crew had time to close water-tight bulkheads and fight off death as long as air lasted. It was a fajnt hope, but under its incentive crews of the four submersibles drove on toward the spot where their comrades’ ship lay. Listening apparatus delicate enough to catch the faintest under sea noise was in operation to ap prise the searchers whether any of the thirty-five sailors still lived. Divers and lifting apparatus with which it was hoped to bring the S-51 swiftly to the surface also were carried by the searching ships. Reports reaching the New Lon don base located the sunken sub marine accurately enough, it was hoped, so that little time would be lost in finding her, fourteen miles off the island, on a line toward Point Judith. The submarines were under or ders to cruise along the bottom in this vicinity until the 8-51 was found. The survivors— ls there were sur vivors—would keep up a steady tap-tap on the side of their steel, tomb, it was believed, to let the j searchers know there was life aboard the sunken craft. If that hope is realized, and it is! learned that some members of the crew were alive, there will follow a race against time to raise the submarine before the imprisoned men are suffocated. Ships from the Charleston navy yard at Boston and liners called in by radio messages broadcast when word of the disaster was received were expected to swell the number of searching craft to around a score before this afternoon. But the greatest dependence was placed on the submersibles able to search the depths and detect the first sound giving hope that some of the submarine’s crew still lived. Navy men held stubbornly to the hope of rescue. Some few of the crew, they be lieved, might have been in the small air-tight compartment forward and by quick closing of the bulkhead and all air vents escaped death by drowning or the more horrible suf focation by chlorine gas, formed when salt water poured into the acid of the submarine's storage bat teries. Dispatch Here Gives Few Details; Craft In Bad Luck Class Thirty-four officers and men of the U. 8. submarine S-51 were be lieved drowned wnen the sub mersible was ramm-fj off Newport, R. 1., the commandant of the first naval district in Boston today advised the Navy Department. A recheck shows the S-51 car ried six officers and thirty-one men when It went out to sea on a prac- cruise. Three enlisted men but no offi cers were saved when the boat sank after, being rammed by the steamer City of Rome. The first dispatch contained only meager detail that the S-51 had been rammed and sunk by the steamer City of Rome and that only three of the submersible s com plement of thirty-seven officers and men had been saved. Only two officers were aboard the ship ajid both are believed to have perished. They were: Lieutenant R. H. Dobson, Brook port, N. Y., commanding. Lieutenant Harlow M. Pino, Long Beach, Cal. The three men saved, picked up by the steamer City -of Montgom-1 •ry, were: Alfred Geier, electrician’s mate. Dewey G. Kile, engineman. Michael S. Lira, seaman, first class.

Fla., in February, 1924, becoming effective April 1, 1924, and to run until March 31, 1927. Supplemental contracts based on the agreement were then nego tiated in the coal districts outlying the central competitive field, and included the coal fields of northern West Virginia and central Pennsyl vania. The agreement, he said, was designed to insure peace in the bituminous industry for a three year period. aster* orders were dispatched to the naval stations at New'London, Newport and Boston to rush avail able craft to the scene of the sink ing to aid the search for survivors. The S-51 was one of the newer of the navy’s submarines. She was of a class of four submersibles laid down after the war by the Lake Torpedo Boat Company, at Bridge port, Conn. Misfortune has seemed to hover over her class, for another of the S boats sank in Long Island sound more than a year ago. Her offi cers and crew escaped by cutting through a bulkhead and climbing out of the vessel as she lay with her prow sticking up in the air, clear of the water. The Navy Department was ad vised today by the commander of the patrol forces at New London, used to expedite rescue work. Sub- Conn., that every means was being marines and available craft have been ordered to the scene of the wreck. The message follows: ‘‘Submarines have been ordered to the scene of the wreck. Falcon been ordered from New York yards and additional divers been requested as soon as possible. Am conferring with Merritt, Scott and Chapman with view expediting rescue work.” A brief message from Captain Diehl of the City of Rome told the navy the story of the sea’s latest tragedy. After his ship collided with the S-51, Diehle radioed: ‘‘Have rammed S-51 at 10:24 p. m. Saved Kile, Lira and Geier. Nothing else could be found. ‘‘An oil spot showed up where the S-51 went down.

S. City of Rome stated today in a wireless message to the International News Service in response to a radio query. Captain Diehl’s message Indicated I hat there was no damage done to the City of Rome, but failed to give details of the disaster to the submarine. Captain Diehl’s wireless to the International News Service was as follows: w ‘‘Three men saved from S-51 doing well, passengers and crew on S. S. City of Rome all O. K.

S. STANDING FIRM ON DEBT from First Page.) as are necessary and applicable to France’s peculiar situation. The chief departure from the Brit ish plan is understood to be in the terms offered France for the first ten years of the agreement. Ma* terial concessions have been offered France in this first ten years be cause of the chaotic state of her governmental finances. American experts have calculated that even a financial ‘‘wizard,’* such as M. Caillaux is reputed to be, will need ten years to inaugurate the budget ary and taxation reforms necessary to put governmental finances on a solid keel in Paris. The theory underlying the Ameri can proposition is that France Is prosperous, commercially and indus trially, that her economic resources were greatly increased as a result of war spoils, and that after this breathing spell of ten ypars she should be eminently able to dis charge her debt to the United States on the same terms that seven other debtor nations have agreed to. While there is nothing in the nature of an ‘‘ultimatum” in the American offer, members of the commission made it plain today that there will be no material de parture from the terms contained therein. Hold Terms Generous Not only do the American com missioners consider it a fair—even generous offer —but they are fully aware that much more leniency would inevitably result in a con flict in Congress in December that would not only likely result in a refusal to ratify, bdt also lead to embarrassments with those seven other debtor nations that have come to the Treasury and taken up their burdens. In this respect, at least, it was said today, the offer which M. Caillaux pored over today is, gen erally speaking America’s best terms. Sitting grimly at Capitol Hill and closely following the negotiations day by day are Senator William E. Borah and several other influential Senators. They have already served notice that they will oppose any plan thp.t strays very far from the British agreement. Tn a letter to Secretary of the Treasury Mellon, Senator Borah to day called his attention to reports that a French, settlement is to be followed by the flotation of new foreign loans in Wall Street, ap proximating more than $1,000,000,- 000. Borah asked, with obvious sarcasm, what will be the probable rate of Interest on these loans, knowing full well they will bear 7 or 8 per cent, and that M. Caillaux is figuring on obtaining some of these enormous sums at these rates. Borah To Draw Camparison At the proper time Borah in tends to draw the comparison be tween these loans, and M. Cail iaux’s picturesque protestations that France is unable to pay th3 American Government 3% per cent on money advanced in her hour of need. Despite the surface standstill of things today, optimism continued in Treasury circles that M. Caillaux ultimately will settle on the general outlines of the offer he was study ing today, although it is recognized a lot of hard bargaining must come before agreement is reached. If for no other reason than to satisfy French public opinion, M. Caillaux, it is pointed out, must give the appearance of making a hard fight. “France will settle because she must,” said a member of the Ameii can commission, tersely. "M.« Cail laux knows that he cannot go back to Paris and report failure." M. Caillaux himself reiterated to-' ARLINGTON GO. STIRRED BY OIL EIRES Commonwealth Attorney Says He Will Draw Stricter Law on Storage ARLINGTON COUNTY, Sept. 26. Determined that the dangerous conditions surrounding the oil com panies located in Rosalyn shall not continue, Commonwealth Atorney William C. Gloth, stated today that the present ordinance, passed by the board of supervisors, is not strong enough and that he will have one drawn which will re quire that all tanks must either be burled or moated. If the compan ies refuse to obey the laws of the county, they can move, he said. The case against Paul Himmel farb, president of the Penn Oil Company, who has been cited te appear in court to answer the charge that he had erected cer tain structures at his plant before first obtaining a permit, has been postponed until Tuseday. ‘‘Unless there Is something done at once to force the oil companies to provide the proper Are protec tion at their plants, I will not allow my men to go near them,’’ said Chief Jack A. Spates today. Should an alarm come from any of the oil plants, Chief Spates stated, he would stop his men at Murphy and Ames Lumber Company. Former Chief C. C, Donaldson, of the Cherrydale department, said today that the fires at the oil companies have in the last year cost the department more than $2,000. According to announcement made by J.

The bathing process becomes necessary, he said, when any of the sea creatures received at the ac quarium are suffering from a dis ease. The commonest illness, suf fered by the fish, according to Mr. Radcliffe, are sores of the body, which appear when parasites, scarcely discernable to the naked eye, attach themselves in the man ner Os leeches. These thrive on the victim and, if not exterminated in time, will kill the fish. Attempts to scrub off the barnacle-like creatures are first made and this failing, the fish are bathed in a solution. usually of salt water, strong enough to kill the parasites without injuring the fish. The salt water bath does not in any way injur* a fresh water fish, Mr. Radcliffe said. They are only kept in th* salt water a short time, long enough to kill off the parasites, and then replaced in fresh water tanks. However, he said, if the fresh water~fl«h were allowed to stay in salt water any length of time, they would, of course, die. The Bureau of Fisheries has just received a shipment of YO.&OO sal mon eggs from the Columbia river country, but* they will not be hatched in this section of the coun try due to the fact that the nearby waters are not cold enough, Mr. Radcliffe said today. They will be reshipped to New York where the temperature of the water is much colder.

MITCHELL, READY FOR BATTLE, PREPARED TO MAKE NEW CHARGES COLONEL SHOWS FIGHT Unified Air Service Supporters Made Optimistic by His Presence By KENNETH CLARK Under the personal direction of Colonel ""Billy” Mitchell, advocates of a unified air service fortified battle lines today for the fight against what they consider the “hidebound” conservatism of the army and navy before the Presi dent's air board next week. Though himself discreetly main taining silence about the major issues of the aviation row, imme diately and promptly imposed upon him by close friends and advisers,** there was no gainsaying that Mitchell's presence has rallied air service enthusiasts and given en couragement to the younger mili tary flyers who are preparing to buck their chiefs in demanding that-aviation be divorced from its present lodgment. Mitchell today, retaining his usual smiling debonair demeanor, an nounced that he was fully prepared to substantiate every charge of ‘treasonable administration and criminal negligence’* against the air force, and declared he would sub mit new charges and prove them. “I am ready, he declared curtly. Equally was Mitchell undisturb ed by reports that the higher of ficers of the military and naval establishment were out to “scalp’’ him by driving him from the army and discrediting him before the public. He said he was fully aware of these efforts, and would meet every charge against him before the air board. Has Prepared Defense Mitchell has prepared an elab orate defense. If permitted by the board, he indicated it would take at least four days to present his full case against the present air services. Three army pilots will assist Mitchell. They are: Captain Rob ert Oldys, air service; Lieutenant Charles Bissell, Langley Field, Vir ginia, and Lieutenant David Linglo, McCook Field, Ohio. Their selec tion by Mitchell has been approved by the War Department. With the ice broken by Com mander John Rodgers, chief of the PN-9 flights, it was learned today that a number of naval aviators will join in demanding a separate air corps, analogous tb the marine corps. This also has been advo- cated by Senator Bingham (Re pub- llcan) of Connecticut, member of the board, but stiffly opposed by the “old guard” in the navy. Flyers To Present Views A secret poll has been taken in the Bureau of Aeronautics, it was learned today. The concensus of flyers was said to be strongly in favor of the air corps, but opposed to an independent air ministry in the* Cabinet. A captain and pos sibly two commanders will be named by naval flyers to present their views to the board. The board Monday will hear army and navy pilots. Mitchell may j be included, but it is believed the board will not get to him until Tuesday. Tonight Mitchell will attend a celebration by the local American Legion, and possibly will deliver a speech.

Se pt. 26. —A. dead Niagara, the river bed of a long since dried up outlet of the entire Baltic Basin Into the North Sea and Atlantic, has now been discovered and clearly indentj fied in the heart of Sweden by two Swedish geologists, Henrik V. Munthe and Lenart von Post, the former professor at the University of Upsala and the second director of Sweden’s Geological Survey. At the end of the glacial period; that is, some 9,000 years ago, these scientists have demonstrated, the Baltic and the North Seas were not connected at the <ame level, as now, by the Sound between South ern Sweden and Denmark,' or by the Belts which seperate the Danish Isle, to say nothing of the German Kiel Canal, but the Baltic was then a fresh water body, the surface of which lay about 90 feet above the contemporary level of the Western Sea, and its outlet cut directly across Sweden at the lati tude of Stockholm. Lakes Mark Course A chain of important lakes now mark the course of this pre-historic water course, called by geologists the Svea River, and across the watershed between two of these lakes, Hjalmaren and Vanern, the two professors have now identified I no less than 12 former river b?ds, the rocky banks of which have been polished by water as rapid as that now pouring over the cliffs at Niagara At one point near Degersfors, popularly called “The Judgment Hole,” the erosion gradually cut a channel 75 feet deep through sheer rock, while collected shells of bi valves which cannot live in salt water prove that the Baltic was then fresh, instead of slightly sa line as now. The situation would be paralleled if the American Great Lakes should begin to use the Chi cago river, instead of the St. Law rence as an overflow. Without being identified as a former outlet of the Baltic, this depression across Sweden has been known for centuries, and proposals have been made since the days of Gustavus Casa to construct through it a canal, connecting the Swedish eastern and western seaboards, but the project has languished, partly on account of the completion of the Gota canal, further south, and partly because of the rapid build i ing of railroads The Idea of a "Save canal” is not dead, however, and a special com mission to study the scheme in de tail was appointed by the Riksday in 1916.

LECTUO SEES BLASE YOUTH IS DINGEB Emotional Excitement Main Aim in Going to School, He Tells 2,000 Teachers By International News Service SAN ANTONIO, Sept. 26.—Pres ent day youth, blase, sophisticated, and wildly seeking "emotional ex citement” Is leading us to the same fate that befell’ ancient Greece and Rome, M. V. O’Shea, lecturer from the University of Wisconsin, de clared recently in an address to 2,000 teachers at the Southwest Texas Institute here. Rome, once the center of all the civilized world, now Is regarded aa a hasbeen, the professor stated, and that will be the way In which the United States will finish if youth is permitted to carry on without restraint. "Boys and girls In their high school and college days ought to be eager for a knowledge of the things that make for a higher civi lization," Professor O’Shea said. "But, we find them coming to school and college for emotional excitement. They stand around the .campus with bored, cold and sophisticated airs. They look at their books during study periods but their minds are seeking satia tion for their emotionally saturated make-ups.” Professor O’Shea declared that if youth craves emotional excite ment only, as a large per cent of youth now does, it cannot be in duced to advance Intellectually. This, he safe, has been the tragedy of every civilization that has fallen. The modern dance also was at tacked, not because of any Im moral tendencies but because it robs youth of Its teachability. Professor O’Shea closed his ad dress with a vivid word picture of the average day spent by the mod ern girl and boy. brothers pass daily BUT THEY DO NOT SPEAK LONDON, Sept. 26.—William and Harry Dean, brothers, although working on the same railroad and passing each other once a day, have not seen each other for six teen years.

HNS BRING CURVES SB IN STYLE Frocks follow Lines of Body and Quest for Thinness x Disappears Ry ETHEL MARSHALL International Nawa Service LONDON, Sept- 25.—Women’s fashions, which have been prac tically unchanged since the world war, are to suffer grea* revolutions this fall. Fashion’s new decree will bring relief to thousands of her suffering followers, so need no longer be thin. y Women will now be able to give up their skipping exercises, Turkish baths, aftd other weight-reducing mediums which they took up a few years ago in the quest to get thin. The silhouette fashion Is now passe, and a becoming amount of plumpness with a few graceful curves will be a woman’s best help if she wants to be fashionable this ten. The reason for thd change lies partly In the new frocks, which are waistless and fit closely to the natural curves of the body, a style which looks nothing on a lean or angular figure. The winter girt of 1925 will be a girl once again, smart but supple. Now More Feminine M«fny of the models already In the salons, by a little fitting here and a little shaping there, are at tempting to show some”kind of waist. Little dodgers of all kinds have been introduced in frocks, like pocket pleats and frills, to give a full effect, and the whole trend of the new fashions i» to make women appear more feminine. Skirts, however, will not be very much longer. They will be wider, however, and will doubtless facil itate easier and more graceful walk ing and danedng. Evening gowns have tight bodices and skirts flar ing out from the waist-line In a modified ballet costume style, while they are trimmed In devious ways to emphasize the feminine efjtect. Some Are Grotesque Some of the evening and dance frocks are grotesquely trimmed with huge goldfish, complete with bubbles, and present a picture ft gorgeousness. It is expected tWht the new fem inine fashions will lead to the abolition of bobbed hair, a style which is already on the downward grade here. The newest styles are conducive to curls, and bobbed hair looks out of place.

4 JEAN ELIOT’S GOSSIP OF SOCIETY ;POST PRESENTS LE BRETON IN NEW ROLE Former Argentine Am bassador Teaches Dances to Pfince of Wales By JEAN ELIOT r’ has been a long time reaching Washington, but a letter telling something, of the two day stay of H. R. H. the Prince of Wales at the Huetel Estancia in Argentina has considerable interest not only because of the affectionate remem brance with which His Royal High ness is held since his visit here a few years ago but because our old friend Doctor Thomas A. Leßreton, J sometime Ambassador of Argentina to the United States, was among those? who contributed to the enter tainment of the royal guest. This was the freest forty-eight hours the prince spent in Argentina, with no hint of "protocol,” no visits of state, no dinners or lunch eons—beyond the pleasantly in formal meals served in the Estancia —to mar a perfect holiday. And one can imagine it was the happiest period of his South American stay —remembering how much joy the heir to the British throne got out of the moments when he was "off duty” in Washington and out of that visit to White Sulphur Springs, when he was to all intents and purposes incognito and when a group of pretty Washington girls and the young attaches of the British embassy were his play mates. Dr. Leßreton In New Role was a small house party— all men —assembled; at the Huetel Estancia and my letter gives amus ing details of an informal after dinner smoking concert, at which His Royal Highness brought out one ~"of his famous ukeleles, with digni fied Doctor Leßreton, now Minister of Agriculture of Argentina, among those who undertook to initiate the visitor into the mysteries of various Argentine dances. Inspired by the performance of gome famous Criollo musicians, who varied quaint Old World airs with tangoes, modern and old, and good American jazz, the prince tuned up his ukulele and gave a medley of airs, humming choruses, and keep ing time to the Argentine songs of. the performers, who quickly fell into *the royal whim and gave liberally from their extensive reper tory. The prince was much inter ested in a Spanish version of “Honolulu Blues.” It is of record that his royal highness slept late next morning, missing a program of camp events —pony breaking, the bringingMown of ostriches, etc. —at which, how ever, the Maharajah of Kapurthala was an interested spectator. And after the royal guest had risen he spent the day roaming at will over the great estate, accompanied by some of his hosts. Remembered With Affection Doctor and Mme. Leßreton are remembered here as among the most distinguished and delightful diplomats ever sent to us from South America. Cosmopolitan in their experience, they made the Ar gentine embassy one of the most important in town in a social sense. And their niece, lovely Mlle.* Manuela Lloveras, who made her home with them, was exceptionally popular with the younger element of the Diplomatic Corps and with resident society. WILBURS ABANDON HOLIDAY CRUISE The short cruise aboard the U. S. 8.

RELIGIOUS LECTURE THE WASHINGTON TIMES The National Daily SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1925. Will Make Address On Mental Power ■ML J LEWIS C. STRANG, Who comes to the National Cap ital for a series of addresses on mental power. LEWISTSTRAIG TO LECTURE HERE Disciplined by Church, Former Newspaper Man Takes Plat form to Tell Views “What It Means to Live by the Spirit” will be the opening subject of Mr. Lewis C. Strang, a former Washington editor and now re nowned as a writer and speaker on themes concerned with human bet terment through wiser thinking. Mr. Strang will speak tomorrow evening at 8 o'clock in the New Willard Hotel ballroom, beginning a week’s series of nightly discourses on the matter now engaging all his attention. He has given a similar series in Boston for the past twenty years. The subjects for the lec tures following that of tomorrow night will be, in turn: “Individual Integrity,” “Conviction and Spirit ual Understanding,” “The Divine Requirement and the Moral Law,” “A Vision of True Religion.” Much interest has this year cen tered upon Mr. Strang, because of his controversy with the board of directors of the Christian Science Church, of which organization he hac been, for almost a quarter of a century, a leading member. He was closely associated with Mary- Baker Eddy in* the preparation of her books, and. under her direction, elited a new issue of her “Science and Health.” Mr. Strang says that shortly before Mrs. Eddy’s death she said to him: “Your work is finished; go tell the world what you have learned.” It is in keeping with this injunc tion, he says, that he published his now famous bocks, “The Master and the Modern Spirit” and “Free dom Through Right Thinking.” However, some of his utterances in the letter work caused adverse comment by leaders of the Chris tian Science Church and Mr. Strang was made the subject of disciplinary measures by the board of directors. A few months ago he withdrew ■om the church and began prepara tions for the present series of lec tuies. He also has commenced the publication of his own paper. The Open Mind. Mr. Strang, as a Washington edi tor, was prominent in the discus sion of public affairs, and wrote much on literature and the theater. Later he did important book review work for Boston newspapers. He and Mrs. Strang are to be guests of friends all the coming week, while in the, Captial City. BAPTIST lemple Baptist Ctaircf I 10th N Sts. N. W. REV. T. O.

M.—Morning Worship “THE DIVINE APPROVAL” 7 P. M.—Young People’s Service Miss Niemeyer Will Speak Joyous Living From the Christian Science Monitor The student of the Holy Scrip tures scarcely can fail to be deeply impressed by evidences which in dicate the joyous lives of the spirit ually-minded, of the prophets and patriarchs, of all in those ancient days who lived in tne constant de sire to know and obey God’s coml mands. The conclusion seems justi fied that this joyous attitude arose from -an abiding sense of God s ever-presence, and of His unfailing love for and protection of all His children. None, perhaps, manifested this quality of joy in greater degree than did David. The Psalms are redolent with the joy which springs from the assurance that all is well. Unmistakable evidence of God’s presence and goodness was a lively fact with the shepnerd king. Isaiah was equally certain of God's pres ence and of His love. While Christ Jesus has been termed, the “man of sorrows,” there evidence In the four Gos pela*Hhat he continually rejoiced in a tremendous conviction of the Father’s presence ana unchanging love for His offspring. His sor rows arose over the follies of a benighted people, who were con tent to feed upon the husks of Existence when they could have come into man's "'true inheritance. It is little wonder that at times the tragedy of the situation moved him to tears; but both by his e* ample and in his teachings he glorf-. fied God, the Father, in the joy of his spiritual certitude. YOUNG MISSIONARY WILL GIVE FAREWELL ADDRESS “The Divine Approval” is the theme of the morning sermon to morrow of Doctor Joseph R. Sizoo, pastor of New York Avenue Presby terian Church.
