Great applause rang thruogh the meeting hall yesterday when Bishop Brent in presenting the American proposals delivered an eloquent ap- peal for practical steps to save the human race from the scourge of opium and narcotic drugs. His favorable refercnce to the League of Nations and the protocol for the pacific settlement of interna- tional disputes created extraordinary interest among the delcgates, as did his remark that all must recognize the esscntial unity 6f humanity and that there is no white, yellow, black or brown race. “God never made one nation to be exploited or despised by another,” he declared.

The hearing is on an appeal by the State of Florida from a Land Office decision which declared the islands to be public land. Two torneys for the State, which =old Lone abbage Island for $21.000, argued the islands did not exist when Florida entered the Union in 1845, but have since been formed by the deposit of silt and the low- ering of the lake. : BOMBS PEPPERING BATTLESHIP HULL (Continued from First Page.) Navy feels that America, hypnotized at the conference, has been further lull¥d to the notion that naval rival- ries are a thing of the past and that it is little short of foolishness to maintain any navy at all. An effort is to be made to dispel that idea in the coming Congress. Guard Operations. In any event the operations against the Washington are to be guarded as naval secrets which may accrue to the advantage of this country in time of need. There will be no journalistic observers at the obsequies of the Washington and no detailed descrip- tion of the sinking will be given out. As already stated. the Navy hopes the Washington will prove a tough nut to crack. If she does it may-tell the world that the Washington re- mained afloat in almost unbelievable The Navy may say nothing at all. The Navy feels. however, that the information it will obtain in the Washington experiments is worth vastly more than the funk value of the ship if cut-up and sold. It is Ppos! le that the Washington might Lring under the hammer something $60,000 or $70,000. The v; to gain construction may save the country in its future maintehance of the fleet. The Navy hopes to gain in- formation which may result in the aving of hundreds of lives in the event of a future conflict at arms. The junk value of the Washington means The Washington has been in prepa- ration for something like two years for the sinking that is in store for her. She was selected for her own pe- cullar fate soon after the Washing- ton treaty narfed her among the doomed ships. Some years ago the the older battleships—ships of the Spanish-American War type. But the World War proved that ships of an entirely qifferent design were neces- sary—to meet particularly the men- ace of the submarine and the air- plane. The Washington has been equipped in what might be termed post-Jutland is to be sub: jected to every test which, in theory, she might meet in war. She is heavil armored, she has torpedo “blisters and every device to guard her against the sinking which inevigably Is in store. The Navy's aspirations are tied up in the hope that she may prove a glutton for punishment. Much Detail Involved. The operations will involve a vast amount of small boat work. Mines and bombs are to be exploded near the hull. After each explosion a | minute examination must be made by a boarding party. Photographs and drawings must be made; data must be jotted down. The battleship Texas has been named as the execu- tioner of the Washington. It has just been learned that some Navy Dlanes may drop a few bombs on the deck of the Washington. If she stands up under all of this the old Texas will open up with all her guns, all her armor plercing projectiles and keep the guns going until the Wash- ington, like a crumpled criminal, col- lapses to her doom. The Navy would have preferred to conduct the experiments in inclosed and shallow waters, that they might more leisurely inspect the hull after sinking. But the terms of the Wash- ington treaty are so stiff and tight that it was necessary to choose the open sea in order that when the Washington goes down she will go forever and be a forgotten unit in the navies of the world.

The society has been compelled this early in the season to engage several special nurses for whom no Pprovision has been made in the budget and this demand for more nurses will steadily increase when the cold comes, Mrs. Cross, president of the society, eaid today. “The require- ments which we are facing do not consist of something which may be deferred,” she said. that people will become ill and that many should have the care of a trained nurse. It is not as though we' were trylng to raise some money for a building projéct, or some other proposal which may or may not be carried out.

They have finally surrendered to the &train of their home life, and now absolutely require the care of a visit- ng nurse during several hours of the week. These mothers are usually un- derfed and overworked. The constant worry of their children, their uncer- tain income, the dread of unemploy- ment, the swift approach of prem ture old age, the hopeless future, have all combined to break down their health, depressing and disheart- ening them and destroying their courage. Ald in Checking Cancer. Dr. Harry H. Kerr, president of the Washington Society for the Preven- tion of Cancer, today indorsed the work of the visiting nurse in check- ing the spread of cancer in Wash- ington. Dr. Kerr said: “Visiting nurses, who go regularly into the home to give bedside care to the sick frequently discover in their natural contact with the family some mem- ber who has a painless growth which she is prone to regard as harmless. The nurse is in a position to direct the patient to her physician for e amination, diagnosis and care. Hav- ing won the confidence of the family, she is often able to persuade a re- luctant member of the importance of such early care.” RESERVES COMMISSIONED Lieutenants Given Places in Army’s Auxiliary Forces.

Springmann expressed his commen- dation of the witness who had the foresight to take down the number of the truck. “If every citizen would be on the alert in cases like this the work of the police would be greatly simplified,” the detective pointed out Maj. Daniel Sulllvan reported today to Commissioner Oyster that 69 drivers were arrested during the past 24 hours for violating the speed laws. Five were arrested for operating their machines while intoxicated. There were 90 other arrests for in- fractions of other traffic regulations. Tag Tangle Explained. Inspector Headley has assumed full responsibility for the fact that the automobile of Arthur E. Sixsmith, secretary to Secretary Mellon, has been running under “dead¥ license tags since some time last Summer. Mr. Sixsmith said that the car in- volved in the accident on the Con- necticut avenue bridge Tuesday be- longed to him, as he had bought it from Mr. Melion last Summer. At that time, he said, he told his chauffeur to attend to the purchase of new license tags, something which is re- quired by law every time a car changes hands. Then, Mr. Sixsmith said, he thought no more of the mat- ter.” The car is still listed at the Traffic Bureau as belonging to “A. W. - Mellon.” Inspector Heldley said today that the short time which intervened be- fore the next year prompted him in allowing the tags issued under Secre- tary Mellon's name to remain on the car. The chauffeur had previously suggested to Mr. Sixsmith that it would be a good" thing if he could retain the original numbers.

PARIS, November 20.—Postpone- ment of the discharge of the soldiers In the 1921 class, whose time has expired, has caused trouble throughout Spain, according to a person well acquainted with the Spanish situation, who has just arrjved over the border, says the correspondent of Le Journal at Hen- daye. According to the traveler there were numerous cases of insubordi- nation in the African army and also in the Madrid barracks, where muti- neers had to be disarmed. Two hun- dred of them were arrested and will be court-martialed, he reports. The acting premier, Rear Admiral Marquis de Magaz, told a delegation of soldiers’ families, who appealed for the discharge or at least the transfer to Spain of those in Africa whose time had expired, that necessity dic- tated thelr retention. He hoped, how- ever, that the men could be dis- charged by January 10. Premature calling to the colors of recruits of the 1924 class, who were not due to be summoned before Feb- ruary, has added still further to the discontent, according to Le Journal's informant.

No mourn- ers surrounded the grave, which was purchased by Michael Dun- levy, Xenia-Pike grocer. The city paid for services of an undertaker. Henry was known to few persons in Dayto: Seven years ago he placed his belongings, contained in an old trunk, in a shed in the rear of Dunlevy's grocery. Yesterday Mrs. Carrie Raymond of the City Wel- fare Department examined con- tents of the trunk and learned for the first time that he had been a member of the South Dakota Legislature in 1895. Subsequently, according to documents found in the trunk, he was appointed to be postmaster of Spearfish, S. Dak., by Postmaster General John Wanamaker.
