PARIS, April 28—A new theory| of relativity is announced by Prof.| Paul Painleve, former and moted | mathematician, who declares his con- | ception is based on mechanics of | broader lines than those developed by | Prof. Albert Einstein, the German | scientist. “My work is to attempt to recon- | cile the old school springing from Newton's theory of gravitation with the new school emerging from Ein- | stein’s theory,” he said. i I consider Einstein’s theory a step in the right direction; certainly it was necessary to sclence to explain phe- Describes Work In Meding Canal Zone Needs| How the Protestant churches are working together to meet the needs of the Canal Zone is described by Rev Dr. David G. Wylie, who recently spent several weeks there. “The Panama Canal Zone is a strip of territory ten miles wide and fifty miles long. In it there are 10.000 American soldiers and the population is practically 100 per cent American,” he said. “The moral conditions in the zone are good. Just across the street, in Colon, on the Atlantic side. and in Panama City, on the Pacific side, the moral conditions are bad. 1 “In March the Atlantic fleet passed through the canal and united with the | Pacific fleet. The brothels, saloons and gambling dens spent tens of thou- sands of dollars in their effort to rob and debauch the young men of the Navy They engaged practically all the jitneys. automobiles and carriages within a radius of many miles to meet the young men when they came off the wharves and drove them direct to Panama ity The streets of P City were wWhite with midehipmen officers e saloons and wo filled with our 3 It was fortunate that the admiral of the fleet had issucd an order giving the men shore leave from 1 to 6 only. This kept thousands of young men from the “perils of the Panama City Erect Bulldings for Worship. “When the government undertook the work of building the canal. build- ings in varlous places were erec for social and religious nd religious services. Later on it was felt it would be a mistake for a large number of Prot- estant denominations to build small churches in the zone. and an effort Was made to consolidate the work of vangelical denominations. Prac- 1 adopted this exeept stesiant Lpiscopal und Southert ptist churches. At the present time the Protestant Episcopal Church has an excellent building at Ancon at the Pacific side, and the Southern Baptists have a good edifice at Balboa, also on the Pacific side of the canal. ““The Union Church has four congre- gations: One at Cristobal, on the At- lantic side; at Gatun, about nine miles from Cristobal, where the first lock is locate at Pedro Miguel, six or seven miles from Balboa on the Pacific side, and at Balboa. “The church at Cristobal. completed last vear, is an excellent edifice.

HEAD SCORES ECONOMY Refuses to Take Blame for; “Rotten” Service—Sees | Improvement Coming. ten to The Star. April 28— “Besion's postal service is far from perfect, it's rotten, but the blame should go where it belongs, on Washington economies | and the railroads,” declared Roland | M. Baker, postmaster, today, in an | effort to defend himself in the whole- | sale attacks being made upon the| service by Boston business men and numerous organizations. Not in vears has Boston suftered. actually suffered, from poor postal service as during the present post- | master’'s administration. | Thousands upon thousands of com- plaints have been made, and Po: master Baker's office has been round- 1y scored by the public, business and the press. May Restore Old System. Out of the wretched conditions that prevailed during the winter months there has eyerged a better order of things, «nd v ¥th the advent of July it is expected the old-time System, one that e Boston's post office famous for speed and efficiency, will be re- &tored. Shortage of funds and the curtail- | ment of service, the “pinch penny policy.” as it has been called, that fol- lowed the era of economy prescribed | by the post office officials in Washing. ton, has brought wretched service to the cities and towns outside the Bos- ton zone. Boston suffered during the first months of the strict economy period. but such a flood of complaints poured in, that department heads in ‘Washington stretched a point to make it possible for Postmaster Baker to better his service, “The service in Boston is not up to old standards,” says Mr_ Baker, “but we are getting better service, and 1 am quite sure that by July the Boston district will have returned to its old standard of efliciency. Blames Lack of Funds. “As a business man, I am forced to admit that the service today is not as satisfactory as it ought to be, but that is due to the failure of the gov- ernment to give us sufficient funds to do the work. “In the last year the business of the Boston office has increased more than 20 per cent, and the working forces until quite recently remained in the old niche. Because of the complaints that poured in, Assistant Postmaster General Bartlett made special provi- sion for the Boston office, which gave us an opportunity to increase the working force. “In the last few weeks we have put on twenty-five new clerks and twelve mew carriers.” = For months, mail matter from New York that ought to have been dis- tributed for the first morning de- liveries failed to make its way into Boston offices and business houses until the late afternoon, and in many instances not until the following day. These delays caused great annoyance and actual loss in business. STAREK FLYING TO D. C.
