5 1K CHUR TARETHEN BACK Providence, R. 1., Cathoiics; Had Been Ex-communicated for Legal Steps. By the Assoclated Press. PROVIDENCE, R. I, February 11— Elphege J. Daignauit and 53 of the 62 French Americans who last vear| were ex-cummunicated with him from the Roman Catholic Church for their combined legal action against the head of the Providence diocese have agreed to seck reinsiatement in the church. Their action was taken yesterday at & secret meeting called by Mr. Daig-| nault at Woonsocket. Individually and | collectively the ex-communicants voiced | their intention of seeking immediately the forgiveness of ecclesiastical au- thorities. Regulation forms were filled out. The Rev. Frances Desmarals, pastor of the St. James Church at Manville, wit- essed the signatures at his rectory. Daignault remained silent when he was charged with insincerity by more than a dozen of those at the meeting. Discussion centered on a report that the directors of the Canado-American Society, meeting at Manchester, N. H,, had voted 11 to 4 to terminte Daig- nault’s duties unless he recanted of his stand against the church. Daig- nault is the paid president. Two years ago Daignault and others filed suits against 12 church corpora- tions of the diocese, alleging that money originally intended solely for parish pur- poses had been diverted to pay for schools not in the parishes, to pay for unauthorized subscriptions to the Provi- dence Visitor, a diocesan publication, and to the National Catholic Welfare Bodrd. The State Supreme Court dis- missed the cases. KING GEORGE ADMITS WEIGHT DOWN T0 112 Jollies Men Who Bear Him to Am- bulance, Hoping He Is Not Too Heavy. By the Assoclated Press. THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. MONDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 1929.° OUTSTANDING WORLD EVENTS OF PAST WEEK BRIEFLY TOLD By the Alsociated Press. Two momentous events were on to- day’s internatinoal program. In Paris the new reparations commission assem- bled in its first formal meeting; in Rome the Pope formally was acknowl- edged a free and independent sovereign by the Kingdom of Italy. The two occurrences had a common background of reconciliation—hoped for in the case of reparations and accom- plished in so far as the vexatious Roman Question was concerned. The repara- tions experts have been described as the keenest financial brains of seven pow- ers—the United States, Great Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Belgium and Japan. Purpose of the Conference. The gap between what Germany claims she can pay and what France thinks she should pay is a veritable grand canyon of finance. The United States is represented only in an unoffi- cial capacity. This country has stead- fastly adhered to the idea that repara- tion payments by Germany should not be measursd by debts of other countries to America. The settlement of the Roman ques- tion ends a condition which has exist- ed since the Eternal City was occupied by troops of the House of Savoy in 1870. The concordat, giving recognition to canonical law in Italy, shows, too, that the Vatican and the Quirinal have reached an understanding on questions which provoked irritation until only re- cently. It establishes religicus instruc- tion in the schools under church super- isi t also provides for drafting as chaplains and other members of religious workers as hospital and re- lief workers in the Italian army in time of emergency. Another Significant Feature. Anpther feeler for a “Balkan Locarno™ came a few days ago. The possibility of a mutual gnarantee of security has oc- cupied diplomatic thought in Southeast- ern Europe off and on for many months. The latest expression in favor of such an agreement came from Jugoslavia and named Greece, Bulgaria and Rumania as possible parties. Turkey put out a similar tentative suggestion about five months ago. Inclusion of Rumania in a Balken act would make her a_connecting link etween Balkan and Baltic interests. That country for the first time in 10 ars sent a representative to Moscow, where, with diplomats of Poland, Es- tonia and Latvia, he signed a Russian protocol for immediate application of the Kellogg treaty among the nations that line the western boundary of the Soviet Union. Bombay, India, has been the scene of savage fighting between Moslems and BOGNOR, England, February 11. Some of those about Craigweil House have passed a story around indicating that King George's illness may have reduced his weight to 112 pounds. It is said he was quite cheerful and Jollied those who carried him from his Toom at Buckingham Palace to -the ambulanc. that brought him to Bognor Saturday. He told them he hoped they would not find him too heavy. When the chicf bearer sald they had been practicing with a man weighirg 170 pounds the King laughed and said he weflghed only 112 pounds, It is a good thing for you you don't have to carry that big policeman out- side Buckingham Palace. I believe he weighs 280 pounds,” he said. The King has been encouraged to practice deep breathing while lying in the sunshine by the big window in his room at Craigweil House. MR MARKINGS ASKED. Transcontinental Guide System Is Recommended to U. S. By the Associated Press. The placing of air markings on the tallest buildings of cities to guide avia- tors on.the transcontinental flying Toutes was recommended yesterday to the Commerce Department by a special committee of officials and representa- tives of aviation interests. The committee submitted a report recommending a standard set of air- way markings which approved the s tem already begun by the Federal air- way establishment for marking routes. In urging the use of high buildings to help aviators locate their bearings the committee recommended that the name of the respective cfty be promi- nently displayed on the roofs of the structures.

A group of Turkish tourist agencies plan to make a dance hall out of Yerebetan Serai, “the sunken palace.” ‘This beautiful pillared cistern, built by the Emperor Justinian in the sixth century, has existed for 1,400 years, and waters from an unknown source still lap the 336 stately, marble columne. A dance floor will be built over part of the black waters. For colds, grip and flu takge:l alotal)s TRADE MARK REG Relieves the congestion, prévents complication:: and hastens recovery.

BATAVIA, Ohio, February 11 (#).— Three persons were found dead in an automobile near Williamsburg early tion in Hindu belief that Mohammedan | yesterday, the victims of monoxide gas, Pathans had kidnaped and sacrificed Hindu children. The rioting thrived on motives of revenge, each side trying to even the score for outrages by the other.

By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, February 11.—Pedro Lo- casto was “taken for a ride” last night, shot six times and thrown into. the ditch 19 skirting a lonely roadside. Picked up, still living, by a passing motorist, Lo- casto was taken to a hospital where he set a precedent among “ride” victims by “telling.” With bullets in his shoulder, neck and jaw and another dangerously near his heart, Locasto, who is 36 years old, named his ride companions and between lapses into unconsciousness described what happened in the automobile. Locasto said Mike Mediera and Sam de Salvo were his companions. When their car reached Twenty-second street and Harlem avenue, Locasto said, Mediera dropped his right arm in a friendly gesture back of Locasto. In his hand was a revolver and six shots from it were fired into Locasto's body. After dumping Locasto out the men drove away. Physicians said Locasto probably would not live. One bullet, near the spine, partially paralyzed him. AT ety India is now only four flying days from Western Europe.
