NAVY WILL RECEIVE 11 DESTROYER BIDS Contracts to Brmg Total[ $hip Construction to $200,- 000,000 Shortly. Br the Associated Press. Naval ship construction costing more than $200.000,000 will be under way shortly after the Navy Department awards contracts for the building of 11 destroyers to cost a total of $50,000,000. The bids are to be opened mnext Wednesday on these craft, the first de- signed by the Navy under the terms of the London Naval Treaty. The Navy Department hopes the successful_bidders will be able to begin work on the vessels in early October, so shipyard workmen may be employed in the Winter months. | One of the 1500-ton, 35-knot ships is to be built at the Brooklyn Navy| vard to avert a slump and resultant discharge of experienced workers. For | the other 10, bids are expected from a half dozen private East Coast vards,!| and naval yards at Boston. Charleston, | S. C.; Marc Island. Calif,, Puget Sound, | Wash., and Norfolk, Va. The last Congress appropriated $10, 000,000 toward construction of these: vessels, instituting 7 program of replace- | ment of this type of fighting eraft. | Destroyers now in commission are | 1.200-ton craft and were war-time | built. They socn will pass the age| limit. Their successors will be capable | of longer sustained speed and wider | crusing_radius | The Navy plans to ask Congress for | $20,000.000 to_proceed with the work | next year. With this construction, | fighting vessels being built include seven 10,000-ton_8-inch-gun_cruisers to cost | $17,000,000 cach, a 13.800-ton aircraft carrier to> cost $19.000,000 and three fleet-type submarines to cost an a\Cl’- age of $4.000.000 each. Bids for a $2.000.000 dirigible hangar_ to be constructed at the projected $5.000,000 naval airship base at Sunn_v-“ vale, Calif, are to be opencd Sep-| tember 23 GANDHI BARS U. S. VISIT BECAUSE HE THINKS *HE 1S NOT WANTED’ (Continued From First Page.) Oriental visitor to western lands, that of being mobbed by several hundred almost hysterical newspaper corre- spondents of both sex and all national- ities and being chased from deck to deck of the liner Rajputana under the curious eyes of his phlegmatic Anglo- Indian fellow passengers by an impor- tunate mob of Interviewers until he escaped on the smiling plea of fatigue with the apologetic words, “Gandhi is going to his cabin.” But if the meek little Mahatma eluded the embarrassing questions of reporters with all the strategy of an accomplished _ western politician, Mr. Gandhi's baffling mixture of humility and political sense led him to make a theatrical appearance in Europe which will never be forgotten by those who witnessed it. Glimpsed Under Flag. As the liner Rajputana glided into her mooring in the cloudy dawn yes- terday morning several hundred offi- cers, newspaper men and cameramen who had been waiting for hours on the Quayside suddenly glimpsed Mr. Gandhi standing in his white garb at the deck rail above the silent screw of the steamer and—symbolically or not— immediately under the British flag. His head was bare, his eyes mystically fixed on the land and his hands clasped in an attitude of prayer. He stood mo- tionless in the middle of a group of friends, flanked by the purple-robed In- dian poetess, Mrs. Sarojini Naidu, and by his bronze-featured, slim English disciple, MI.<< Madeleine Slade, daughter admiral and now Sister Gandhi’s ashram at Ah- As the ship silently approached land it scemed to some sentimental Indian watchers as if Mr. Gandhi, who stood at the extreme after rail of the vessel, 2 slowly moved westward by an irresistible force. In the half-light of the dawn it was as if a new white- robed prophet were coming out of the East. Speaks Against Wars. In sore such apostolic light Mr. Gandhi himself must have seen his mission in Europe, for in his speech to French students at a reception organized in his honor he urged them to combat | war and militarism by adopting the same ‘methods of passive resistance which he had successfully employed against the British government in India. But when the meek-voiced prophet received his interviewer in his berth in the second-class cabin in which he trav- eled from Bombay, he at once dropped the mantle of the prophet to assume the heavier and more wearily borne garment of the politician. It was as a weary and disillusioned but still, in his own " words, “irrepressibly optimistic” politician that he outlined his attitude — SPECIAL NOTICES. i WILL, NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY debts other than those contracted for by myself.

A vast audience yesterday at the ‘. sentimental tit- bit of a sweet young wail life one great pas- sion for a handsome poser, with all the fervor tha t it had pent up just such an occasion. All up and down blue-ribbon Pollyana grlngx back Janet Gaynor and Fox grested this whose is young com- within itself for the theater / were to be heard the sup- pressed sobs of those who could not bear to see Miss Gaynor saying good-bye to a canary bird. And When that really catching melody, “Kiss Me Good Night,” was intuned by Mr. Farrell's rigid fingers on the piano, and the lady of his heart stood at the doorway bidding him a mute good-bye, the tears actually seemed to rise and stand in the aisles and scream their heart-rend- ing approval is film will, of course, be furi- ously popular. Stuffed to the brim with everything which has made this voung couple the idol of certain por- tiens of ecstatic America, it pboto- graphs both the lady and the gen- tleman in handsome fashion, re- duces Mr Farrell's speaking voice to a lower Cape Cod dialect, and gives Miss Gaynor an opportunity to do all those delightful Cinderelia tricks which she has learned so well to do. 3 Although recommended mostly for those who faint at the sight of blood and bring their smelling salts with them in crowds, and although its story is so slight that it hurts—it still’ fills an important niche in the entertainment world—that of the whimsical and the sentimental—and its patter is something that every one can understand Apart from the always appealing Miss Gaynor, never more attractive, and Mr. Farrell, who by the end of our “gay ninties” may be an actor, the cast is notable for the services of Beryl Mercer, who at last has a role which is nicely villainous, and who in doing it very nearly steals the picture. Her = daughter, as played by Lorna Balfour, is also somebody worth watching. Otherwise, the “tender” little story concerns the sad plight of a poor little waif in a boarding house whose soul leaps with fire at the sight of a struggling young composer who eschews the vulgar things of life. (Listen closely when Mr. Farrell says: “I knew the filthy thing reeks with vulgar sentiment!”) Eventual- ly, of course, she inherits a fortune. and he writes a successful operetta. and as the curtain descends love flies permanently in at the window.

He sat cross-legged on his narrow berth in his cabin, his fingers already mechanically busy with a_takli, smail brass bobbin on which he practiced yarn spinning for several hours daily as an_example to his followers. He had already recovered from his temporary panic at the tumultuous character of his reception. He said, earnestly and sadly, “I am afraid there is no hope for India at the round table conferesce as far as external appearances are con- cerned. But, s in irrepressible opti- mist, I hope against hope something will turn up which will alter the aspect of the horizon. But since such a hope is only based on faith, not on reason, it may prove illusory. Janet Gavnor. Comes Without Program. “I have come to London with neither a program nor proposal. I have sim- ply accepted the invitation of the Brit- ish government, and I am ready to place myself at their disposal, to answer ques- tions and to give them all tbe infor- mation within my power. I have come expecting to remain in London only two weeks, but I am ready, if neces- sary, to remain two montl “The only engagement I have made is in the nature of a pilgrimage. I have promised to visit my friend Roma in Rolland, the celebrated French writ- er, who is lying sick at his home near Territet, Switzerland, and whose sister, Madelire Rolland, was among the cld friends who greeted me on my arrival at Marseille.” Asked if he believed the recent change | in the government of Great Britain | would change the British policy toward India, Mr. Gandhi said unhesitatingly: “No, Besides. the new governmcnt has already given me assurances it carry out the policy of its predecessor, as far as the India conference is con- | cerned.” Hindu-Moslem Situation Gloomy. ‘With - regard to the ecritical Hindu- Moslem differences, however, h2 showed | unmitigated gloom. As frank as ever, even where his dearest intereste are in- volved, the uncompromising Mahatma admitted: “I fear the Hindu-Moslem question has now become almost insoluble for reasons_on which I don't wish to en- large. But I am still not without hope that a solution may be found. It is open to the Moslems to block the way to a settlement of the future of India as it is equally open to the British government to make their opposition an excuse for not granting India self- But if the British gov- crnment is in earnest in its desire to make a friendly s:ttlement with Incia: it should not take shelter behind the Moslem.” Assures Civil Justice. ‘He was asked if he was fully satisfied Moslems and other racial or re- ligious minorities would receive justice would probably make Al Capone scream with rage, it is fine for the children and fine for those who still buy lavender on the corner. The stage show, “Russian Art” , is funnier and brighter than ould suspect, what with Bill Tela.sk and Bud Manley and a splendid Russian ensemble.

MELCHER. “Fifty Fathoms Deep” Offers Jack Holt an Effective Role. ¢JQIFTY FATHOMS DEEP,” at R-K-O Kelth's, represents & response to the human demand for pictures of life in a perilous setting. It is also attractive as an example of photqgraphy under the surface of the Dcexr with evidence of skill that arouses the curiosity. Questions are asked. How are movie views of a wrecker's work made to appear realistic? How is the spark that cuts through metal to release the unfortunate hero operated in the midst of the fishes? How does the director record the operations of a salvage crew in the midst of a heavy storm? The frame of mind set up by “Pifty Fathoms Deep” makes the picture strong and effective. The physical and the material are ideal- ized in their most glorious moods. The selection for putting the punch into a story of this kind is obvi- ously and unqualifiedly Jack Holt. The hero of the sea must be one like this established actor, who looks the part of the great diver and oc- casional hero. The imagination suf- fers no strain when he achieves the courageous. His associate, Richard Cromwell, in the part of a fellow diver, makes it clear that he is just as devoid of fear as the chief figure in the story, but. nevertheless, is one of those who always follow the leader. Burdened with some gulli- bility, he has the handicap of a wife who lacks the quality of constancy, but in this instance furnishes the plot for a good story, reaching its climax when her dead body is found on the bottom of the ocean, in com- pany with her wealthy friend, the owner of a yacht. Mr. Cromwell has capacity in representing the good friend of the hero, and his emotional type adorns the film. Loretta Sayers. as the woman in the case, is more restrained than the average of those who undertake such roles, and in fact does an ex- cellent bit of sincere acting which might be interpreted as either virtuous or otherwise. Others in the cast are Mary Doran and Wallace McDonald, and they carry their roles well. Keith's also offers one of those ludicrous burlesques of Bowery melo- drama in a former age which have a vogue at present. However en- tertaining the original might have been and however exaggerated the shows in the slums of a former period, the earlier productions are eclipsed in “Stout Hearts and Will- ing Hands,” which has the unusual merit of synchronizing the methods of the past with the advantages of the prescnt. Krazy Kat cartoon and a Samoa travel talk, together with the news reel, also are on the bill. D.C. C. the ‘untouchable’ classes must be made a ‘reserved’ subiect in any home-rule settlement.

BALTIMORE, Md., September 12.— Announcement that the American Med- ical Association would ask the Ameri- can Legion to use its influence to halt the erection of veterans’' hospitals was made here in a statement yesterday by Dr. Thomas 8.

Dr. Cullen, Johns Hopkins medical school professor, said, however, that the | association does not plan to ask Con- gress to abandon a policy of rendering | hospital and medical benefits to vet- |erans with disabilitles m-t connected | with military service. A resolution call- ing on Congress and the Legion to sub- stitute a plan of disability insurance benefits for the policy of providing ben- efits for disabilities not incurred during military service was approved at a re- cent session of the medical association, This resolution was condemned at the recent convention of the Veterans | of Foreign Wars. | The last Congress appropriated $20,- | 800,000 for more veterans' hospitals. Dr. Cullen said the approach to the | Legion would be in “a very friendly! | spirit” and the proposal for - direct appeal to Congress would be disre- | garded. “The proposed veterans' hospitals will cost millions,” seid Dr. Cullen. “Much time and expense will be re- | quired to furnish surgeons and physi- | cians equal to those in the existing | hospitals, and in 30 or 40 years most of the veterans will have died and the | veterans' hospitals will be of little fur- ther use.” K He said the Government would be saved hundreds of millions of dollars by the plan approved by the Medical | Association whereby disabled veterans | would make use of existing hospitals, which he said “now have a hard time | m meet expen.m PARAGUAY CONDEMNED BY BOLIVIAN LEGATION Favorable Atmoxphere for Peace Pact Shattered by Latest At- tack, It Is Declared.

WEAPON Woodcock Plans Collections When Criminal Action Is Not Effective. By the Associated Press. Speakeasy operators and bootleggers are to be confronted by civil action, brought by the Prohibition Bureau, to collect liquor taxes under the Federal revenue act. A revised set of orders has been is- sved by Prohibition Director Woodcock to his dry enforcement army to insti- tute civil action to collect taxes where | criminal prosecution has failed and where it is not contemplated. In this way the dry law enforcement chief expects to punish Volstead act violators who, through technical or o&her means, evade criminal prosecu- n. Collections to Be Larger. ‘Tactics such as were employed years before prohibition against moonshiners in the Kentucky hills by revenue agents are to be used. However, the taxes under the 1926 revenue act are much larger, and, with penalties, col- lections probably will range into the hundreds of thousands against some big liquor operators. The tax on a gallon of spirits used for beverage purposes now is $5.30. Di- were single again.

Early this year, previous orders relative to the practice were rescinded pending the outcome of & case before the United States Supreme hrnd by Criminal Action. ‘The case—United States against La France—involving a civil action for the collection of taxes, resulted in a de-| cision holding that recovery of revenus was barred by a previous criminal ac- tion. Thus, the bureau is to take civil action only where criminal action has not been carried out or where it is not contemplated. The court decision involved Anthony | France, a Louisiana restauranteur, con- victde of selling liquor in his establish- ment, thus becoming a retail liquor dealer in violation of State and Federal laws. When the Government attempted to collect the taxes in a civil case he appealed and was sustained by the Su- preme court. | Despite the civil action orders, the thlhmon Bureau believes best en- forcement of the dry law can be ob- tained through criminal prosecutions, and will continue its principal efforts in this direction.
