REMOVALS by motor van, by Se- Past Two Years by Half of Those in Union. About one-half of the States of the Union have come to accept the guard- ing of the physical safety of school chil- dren as their own responsibility, through enactment during the past two years of laws to insure conservation and promo- tion of school children’s health, it is announced by the Interior Department’s Bureau of Education. Arizona, Kansas, Michigan and South Carolina have put legal compulsion on school bus drivers to stop before cross- ing railroad tracks, the announcement said, and South Carolina requires fire drills in all public schools and adequate fire escapes where two or more stories are in use. Arkansas requires courses in fire prevention methods in every school. Besides the safeguards against accl- dents, physical culture and mental training in the importance and the means of maintaining health have been included in State health programs. Arizona requires elementary and sec- ondary schools to provide physical training; Florida's Legislature has pro- vided for a State “supervisor of physical and health education,” and Idaho has authorized county superintendents to close class buildings reported in insani- tary condition. No student can be graduated from an | Tlinois normal school, under new laws of that State, without having completed a physical education course running through 144 periods of 45 minutes each. And that State specifically provides tax- ation for playgrounds in large cities. Kansas school children are insured treatment of physical defects at public expense in cities of more than 100,000 population and New Jersey has rovided nurses to examine every pupll in the public schools. ‘Texas has visiting nurses to inspect health conditions and Wyoming has provided by law for teachers; assisted by countthhyslclnns and nurses, to examine children for defective sight, hearing or diseases of the the nose and throat. RADIO SHOW TO BE HELD NEXT IN ATLANTIC CITY Controversy Over Broadcasting: Sports Events Rests With Committee. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, October 24 —Atlantic _City was awarded the radio show, which for three years has been held in the Mid- dle West, the board of directors yester- day voting unanimously on the proposal and setting the first week of June next Summer as the date.

The group will discuss the question with officlals of tbe two large broadcasting systems of the coun- try. Interest in broadcasts of sports events is primary with radio listeners, officials of the Radio Manufacturers’ Associa- tion said, while sport promoters con- tend that the attendance is affected ad- versely by the events being broadcast. LT T e R SOVIET REVEALS PLANS *FOR INDUSTRIAL CENTER Equipment Worth $100,000,000 for New City Will Be Pur- chased in United States. By the Assoclated Press. MOSCOW, October 24.—Details were published yesterday of plans for a huge $300,000,000 indastrial center to be built by the Soviet government on the banks of the Dnieper River adjoining a $110,000,000 hydro-electric plant now being supervised 'by Col. Hugh L. Cooper, American water-power engineer. Equipment for factories, mills, ware- houses and railroads in the new city, which will be called “Bolshoi Zaporo- jle,” will be ordered largely in the United States and will cost $100,000,000, while the cost of construction will total $200,000,000. ‘The plans as announced call for con- struction of more than 100 large model workers' homes, accommodating 20,000 employes. Schools, hospitals, warehouses, workers' clubs, railroads and sawmills are expected to be finished some time next year. HUNT “LOST” PLANE. Four Say They Saw Craft Fall Into Lake Michigan. MENOMINEE, Mich., October 24 (®). —Ffforts to learn something of the {identity of an airplane which four Me- nominee business men claim they saw fall yesterday on Green Island, or in Lake Michigan near the island, were futile last night. High waves on Lake Michigan pre- vented searchers from attempting to reach the island in boats and they were forced to watch along the shore for possible wreckage which might have appeared had the plane fallen into the lake.

N.W Phore National 0850, Indispensability of Sex in Electoral Matters First Talk- " ing Point of Noted Leader. By the Assoclated Press, Nellie Tayloe Ross, former Governor of Wyoming, has on the task she came to Washington to begin today—organizing women's ac- tivities at Democratic national head- quarters. She has christened the subject of her endeavor “the women’s arm of to call it & “women's division” or a “Woman's organization” or a ‘‘woman’s auxiliary.” She does not argue woman'’s equality in the political field, but woman's in- dispensability. Shoulder to Shoulder. “Such an organization as I have in| mind implies women working shoulder to shoulder with men. and in no sense ‘auxiliary,’” sald Mrs. Ross. “Women and men bring different assets into the field of politics. Any question of their relative importance is like the eye say- ing to the ear, ‘What need have I of thee?” However, women may profit by the political experience of their hus- bands and brothers, and may well take their counsel and advice, since men have had charge of the Government since its organization.” Very feminine was her attitude, her attire. She lounged in an easy chair in her new hotel home, slate shoe buckles touched with iridescence, clocked stockings, soft velvet dress, dis- tmsfly belted; jewels at throat, arms an TS, Feminine Touch. Not an opportunity had she missed to add “that feminine touch,” and Year-0ld Mansion by Dr. Frederick May. Marking the 130-year-old structure | as one of the historic places of Wash- | ington, a tablet was unveiled yesterday afternoon at Friendship House, 324 Vir- ginia avenue southcast, as a part of the | | silver anniversary celebration of the | very decided opinions | the | Democratic party” because she refuses | NELLIE TAYLOE ROSS. in her talk of politics, she used the old- fashioned verb, “to court” in its old- fashioned sense. “Masculine political leaders must not only show a disposition to receive; they | must court the participation of women,” she sald, adding, quite significantly: “The importance of an element in the electorate that supplies 50 per cent of the votes cannot be minimized.” It is to that element Mrs. Ross refers when she says, “the woman's arm.” “This particular function of ‘the woman's arm’ will be to muster for service the potential woman power of the Democratic party,” she said. “To arouse to aggressive activity those al- ready in the faith; to stimulate the wavering; to enlist the interest of those independent women who are susceptible to_persuasion.” ‘The purpose of the “woman's arm,” she said, is to reach into every remote precinet, “not to define new issues, not to champlon the cause of any individual, but to weld all elements of democracy into a mwerml organization, ready for action future campaigns.” NANKING'S FORCES DRIVE BACK REBELS “People’s Army” Continues Warfare Along 50-Mile Front in Honan. By the Associated Press. HANKOW, October 24—Continuous but indecisive fighting between the Na- tionalist forces and the religious Kuo- minchun or “people’s army” was in progress today throughout that portion of Honan Province west of the Kinhan Rallway. The opposing armies appeared to be facing each other alongex north and south front, 50 miles west of the rail- way, whereas two days ago they formed an east-to-west line. The present bat- tle line extends north from the border of Hupeh Province to the Lunghai Rail- way near Chengchow. Still 100 Miles From Hankow. At their nearest point the Kuomin- chun forces still were more than 100 miles from Hankow, their apparent ob- jective. The shifting of the battle line resulted when the right wing of the Nationalist forces advanced northward along the Kinhan Railway, driving the rebels from the railroad zone, while the left wing of the central government's forces withdrew toward the southeast, permitting the “people’s army” to reach the Hupeh border. The Kuominchun army now is ad- vancing eastward in three columns, hoping to regain railway territory. Kuominchun spearheads were aimed at Shengchow in Northern Homan and Yencheng, in the central part of the province. Both cities are on the Kinhan Rallway, Yencheng beiln” about 200 miles north of here. Rail Capture Is Held False. Reports that the Kuominchun forces had captured Chengchow, junction point of the Lunghai and Kinhan Railways, apparently were erroneous. The rebel army did launch a vigorous attack against the junction city yesterday, but the Nationalists used ormored trains, artillery and airplanes with deadly ef- fect, repulsing the attackers. Bodyguards df Chiang-Kai Shek, head of the Nationalist forces, arrived here from Nanking, seemingly indicating that the generalissimo, who also is the head of the Nafionalist Civil Guard, would arrive here soon to take command of the central military forces. PARIS LAWYE.RS OFFER DIVORCES ON CREDIT One French Attorney Will Cut Any Marital Tie by Mail in Mexican Courts. ©Outside certain offices in Paris, writes a correspondent of the London Sun- day Times, the husband or wife who was tired of his or her spouse, but not too well endowed with this world's goods, used to be able to read the tempting notice, “Divorce on Credit,” Another Paris lawyer, it appears, might equelly well advertise “Divorce by Post,” though in this case the procedure certainly would not appeal to the needy. Some time ago there was a minor scandal in the French law courts when it was discovered that, by means which need not be specified, a good many American couples had been able to ob- tain French divorces with an abbrevia- tion and simplification of procedure :,hal was certainly not foreseen by the aw. A stop was put to these practices, but now it appears that an enterpris- ing lawyer here is making the most of the facllities for divorce existing in Good-by, Friends; Good-by, Purse; Thea Goes Home By the Assoclated Press. NEW YORK, October 24— Leaning over the rail of the liner Resolute to say good-by to friends as she was about to de- part for Europe, Thea Rasche, German aviatrix, last night drop- ped her purse into the water. Miss Rasche went ashore in an attempt to recover the purse, which she said contained valuable papers, but failed. Friends assured her they would make an attempt to recover it last night and the aviatrix again boarded the vessel just before it sailed. MRS OWEN URGES DISASTER FUND Would Set Aside $25,000,000 to Aid Sufferers in Emergencies. Under a plan formulated by Repre- sentative Ruth Bryan Owen, Democrat, of Florida, a permanent national emer- gency commission, with reserve funds of $25,000,000 to relieve stricken com- munities and co-operate with the Amer- ican Red Cross, would be established. Under her proposed plan the Presi- dent would be authorized to allot any of the funds necessary for the commis- sion to render immediate ald to the vic- :.:lx;ns vtvlllthout going ;.o Congress or tak- e money fro e y m appropriated The commission would work with the Red Cross and would be charged with bringing about economic relief by mak- ing Joans to persons whose subsistence been wiped out by either disaster ur;}:nefxencles. . e loans would be made to fa; ‘who have lost their subsistence thmlez: the destruction of their crops by infes- tation, as well as to persons who lose hther.r1 means ;l livelihood in tornadoes, urricanes, floog ear i mfir e By ds, thquakes and rs. Owen is studying the plan preparation to introducing a blrl‘l soolr? She has discussed it with House mem- bers and Government officials, whom she said today declared it was a “sound economic policy for the Government to adopt.” “The disasters in various parts of the country in the past 20 years have been handled by more or "less temporary measures,” she continued. “During that ::{::e‘l ;h:2.3‘%n3'051u expended approxi- ,000, annually in disaster victims alone.” . ey The money loaned under her plan would constitute a revolving fund, while the remainder would have to be re- placed from time to time by Congress. COMMISSIONERS NAMED. Four Will Take Depositions in | Tunney-Fogarty Suit. BRIDGLPORT, Conn., October 24 (). | —An order appointing four commis- | sioners of the court to take depositions | for Charles J. Martin, counsel for John ! 8.
