Japa- nese news sources called them bandits. Reuters referred to them as “Chinese troops” numbering‘ 6,000, and said there were 200 casuall The bombing apparently was in re- | taliation for the recent shooting down of a Japanese military plane. The expedition which occupied New- chwang, Manchurian commercial cen- ter, was explained by the Japanese dis- patches as made necessary by “wide- spread lawlessness” churia. Chinese authorities said the Jepanese wers responsible for such conditions because the _confusion destroyed the former machinery for the maintenance of order. Manchuria in the past decads has been the best governed part of China, i first under the military dictator, Chang Eso-Lin, and since his death under his son, Chang Hsueh-Liang. is convalescing in a Peiping hospital from a“serious illness, where he looks on helplessly at what he considers an in- vasion of his realm.

Fraser did not mention the general secretary of the Methodist Board of Temperance and Public Morals by name, but alluded to the statements made by “a paid clergvman reformer.” “We resent such statements that try to discredit us before the citizens of our community,” the Legion official said in a letter given to the press last night. He attached to his statement | & letter from the manager of the hotel in Detroit where the District Legion- naires made their headquarters, stati their conduct w2s “above reproach,” and that there was “no drunkenness or rowdyism."” | His statement continued: “The District of Columbia delegation voted as a unit against prchibition at ,our national convention. ~All members ! of our delegation were present when the vote was c2st and none‘was under the influence of liquor.

The story of an 11-year-old boy who suffers no ill effects, although one of the most important parts of his brain has been missing. apparently from birth, is told by Dr. Ellis Freeman of the University of Louisville in the cur- | rent issue of the American Journal of Psychology. ‘The boy has no occipital lobe on the left side of his brain. Theoretically, | the right half of each eye should be useless. Tests show that each eye ! functions normally. The eyes them- | selves are in good condition and the bor never has been troubled with eye- sight defects. The nerve fibers appear to follow | their normal course through the lower | parts of the brain. What happens to | them when they reach the ~cerebral cortex cannot be determined. Free- | man offers the conjecture that a new visual projection area has been estab- lished somewhere else in the brain— or else thet in some way the whole brain has taken over the functions of its missing part. The boy has suffered convulsive selzures, probably associated in some | way with the brain defect. - ) ;@ FREE Against loss, breakage or damage of any ind!

Irish Orator THOMAS SHILLINGTON. IRISH ORATOR WINS CONTESTENTRANCE County Dublin Youth to Come Here for Participation in World Finals. ‘Thomas Shillington, 18-year-old stu- dent at St. Columbia's College, Rath- farnym, County Dublin, has been chosen to represent the Irigh Free State in the Sixth International Ora- torical Contest here October 24, it was announced last night. Young Shillington has as his alter- nate Daniel Aloysius Murphy of Presen- tation College, Rathfarnum, who was awarded a tour of Continental Europe. Irish Contest Held Unique. Shillington won the right to compete in the finals with his prepared speech on “The Irish Free State” and an ex- temporaneous talk in which he dis- cussed the proposition “That State Lotteries Are Undesirable.” A feature of the Irish finals was the fact that each contestant was required to speak extemporaneously on the State lotteries As in the American contest, each orator completed his prepared speech and re- ceived his extemporaneous topic as he left the stage. Since each contestant returned to the stage only in time to speak again, none heard his fellow orators’ impromptu speeches before he himself had discussed the subject. According to reporis of the Irish finals, the unique sameness of the ex- temporaneous topics made acute de- mands on many of the contestants These orators had had rather compli- mentary things to say regarding their Irish sweepstakes, and to be required suddenly, to refute their own views, wa: a real test. New Entrant Praised. ‘The Irish finals were held in Engi- nreers’ Hall, in Dublin, and the judg: were Justice J. Creed Meredith. K. C.: Sir Robert Tate and J. E. Henly, editor of the Irish Times, sponsor of the con- test in Ireland. Dr. C. B. Armstrong, Irish contest manager, has advised Randolph Leigh. contest director gen- eral here, that the Irish contest was a success in that it produced two out- standing orators for first place and alternate winners. Shillington. he.said, is an exceptional orator. He is the son of a prominent linen manufacturer. In school the orator is proficient in football, cricket and swimming. and is ambitious to be- come a teacher. The other five participants in the finals, who already have been an- nounced. are John Thomas Lumsden. 17, of England; Pierre Henri Courtade- Cabessania, 18, of France: Henri R.

VOCATION EDUCATORS TO HOLD CONFERENCE State Supervisors and Trainers of Teachers Coming Here Next March 14. Approximately 300 State supervisors and teacher trainers in agriculture and home economics will attend the joint conference here next March 14 of the North Atlantic and Southern region of the Federal Board of Vocational Educa- tion Arthur P. Williams, Federal agent for agricultural education, will preside over the North Atlantic group, while R. D. Maltby will occupy the chair at the Southern region meetings. Miss Edith M Thomas will direct the home eco- nomic sessions of the Southern Region Conference, with Miss Edna Armidon heading the North Atlantic group. Special attention will be given the needs of home makers in relation to the present business conditions at the home economic cenferences. The total num- ber of home makers included in all Federal vocational education classes in the United States is 109.271, an increase of about 11,000 over last year's figure. | . The keynote in the agricultural edu- cational conferences will be better trained farmers, rather than more farmers. Statistics show 300,000 farm- ers in the United States go out of agriculture annually. The purpose of the Federal board is to fill these vacan- cies with men who are well trained.
