STAR, WASHINGTON, D. €. DECEMBER 30, 1928—PART T. 15 OPPORTUNITY FUND MOUNTS 10 §10,121 Associated Charities Makes Appeal for $4,855 Still Lacking of Total. The total for Washington's 14 neediest families, whose cause is pleaded in the annual Christmas Opportunity appeal, had amounted to $10,121 last night, but many of the women and children for whom the money is sought will feel the pinch of want during the coming year if Washington fails to con- tribute the $4,855 which is still lacking. Contributions can be sent direct to The Star, or to John B. Larner, treas- urer, Associated Charities, 1022 Eleventh street. The fund, if completed, will supplement the budget requirements of 17 adults and 65 children. Officers of the Associated Charities are gratified at the wide response to the appeal, but pointed out that disappoint- ment must inevitably be the lot of many of its wards if the fund is not made complete by New Year day, when the lists will be closed. y A summary of the subscription lists shows that 640 individuals and 58 or- ganizations have contributed this year. The corresponding figures cf last year up to New Year day, when the list was closed, practically fully subscribed with $15,080 asked for, were 755 individuals and 71 church and other organizations, a total of 826. Two of last year's con- tributors have assumed for the coming year full responsibility for the famiiles which they took care of in 1928, their gifts reprcsenting more than $1,500. The Associated Charities is holding at the request of the donor $100 to be used at the last moment for the Oppor- tunity farthest behind. Opportunity No. 1. Fully subscribed with $1,300.

Y., December 20.—A second attempt to photograph the in- side of a prisoner’s stomach has been abandoned, at least temporarily, it is announced by Sing Sing Prison author- ities, following failure of the first at- tempt a week ago. . Alexander Vollero, who has served about 10 years of a life sentence for a gang murder in Brooklyn, was the sub- ject for the first experiment.- A tiny camera was lowered into his stomach and a flashlight picture made. The re- sult was a failure, however, due per- haps to the fact that Vollero’s stomach ‘was not washed out. ‘Thousands of requests have been re- ceived by prison authorities from per- s%n; wishing to witness the second effort. $14,976.00 10,121.84 $4,854.16 EDITOR RETIRES.

GUADALAJARA, Jalisco, Mexico (#)—Troops of all branches of the service are to be concentrated here this month for a decisive drive against the bandit and rebel bands operating in Jalisco. ‘The outlaw and insurgent movement is more intense in Jalisco than in any other part of the country, the marau- ders taking advantage of the retreats afforded by the mountainous nature of the territory. It is hoped that with Owensboro, Prof. Harry J, Carman of Columbia University, secretary of the endowment fund committee of the Historical Assc- ciation, stated that the proposed $1,000,000 fund, started in 1925, now has reached a total of $224,017.42.

The cast-off garments of the inteliec- tuals of one age are found, soiled and tattered, on the backs of the ignorant many in the next, declared Dixon Ryan Fox, professor of history at Columbia University. “Astrology, by which Tycho Brahe, Kepler, Huggens and other scientists supported themselves, now lurks in obscure hallways,” Prof. Fox continued. “Bleeding, once the general resort of physicians, is now used freely only by old wives. Nature stories, once solemnly retailed by the leading geographers, are m found only in the lore of bedtime - ‘The Middle West branch of the Amer- ican Oriental Society today elected Mrs. Caroline Ransom Willlams of Toledo, president for the next year.

Prussia Is Not in Position to Bid for Guelph Treasure. BERLIN, December 29 (#).—The re- ported authorization of the sale of the Guelph treasure in the United States for $10,000,000 was made a matter for question in’ behalf of the People’s party in the Prussian Diet today. Premier Braun replied that the state ministry had looked into the matter, but the financial condition of Prussia did not permit making a bid for the treasure. The Guelph treasure is a collection of early hand-wrought jewels and furni- ture inherited by Ernst August, former Duke of Brunswick and husband of the only daughter of the former Kaiser, from the Dukes of Cumberland. The former duke is reported to be hard pressed financially and so to have con- sented to sale of the collection. For some years it has been in Switzerland. IR Col. W. A. Carleton to Retire. Col.
