Three Bowery vagrants have impli- cated Mrs. Mary Jones, an Fast Side resident, in the case, and she is being held for a hearing next week.

NEW YORK, April 3.—This genera- tion, will experience another great war whiel® will threaten the permanence of modern civilization, Raymond B. Fos- dick, trustee of the Rockefeller Founda- tion, predicted yesterday before the New York Rotary Club, “There is no such thing as a per- manent civilization,” he sald. “The same pallbearers who carried out the coffin_of Tut-ankh-Amen are waiting outside our door for the remains of our civilization.” A Permanent Court of International Justice provides the only preventive for the dangers that threaten, he said in a plea for American entry into the exist- ing court. Modern world conditions make victory in warfare impossible for any natlon, he continued. “England,” he said, “was called one of the victors in_ the late war. What empty words! England has 15,000,000 persons on the borderline of want today seven years after the war.” Coming From Haiti. Lieut. Col. D. C.
