MEMORIAL WORK . TOBE STARTED ‘Second Division Ceremony of Ground-Breaking Tomorrow. Years of planning for a Afitting tribute to dead and living members of the 2d Division, A. E. F., one of the outstanding fighting units during the World War, will be climaxed to- wmorrow by the breaking of ground for & memorial monument at Constitution avenue and Sixteenth street. Maj. Gen. James G. Harbord, wko Jed the Marine brigade at Chateau- *Thierry and later commanded the 2d Division at Soissons and in other major engagements, will turn the first éarth for the shaft. The ceremony will begin at 11 am. and will include addresses by Gen. Harbord and Gen. Hanson E. Ely, commander of the 3d Brigade at Belleau Wood, and music by the Ma- yine Band, conducted by Capt. Tay- Yor Branson. The invocation will be given by Col. Alva J. Brasted, chief of Army chaplains. Raising of Funds. Funds for the monument, nearly $100,000, were raised by subscriptions from members of the 2d Division and 4heir friends, and a design was se-| lected through a contest by werld- | famous sculptors. The site was set| aside by Congress. Designed by James E. Fraser, cre- ator of some of the country’'s most peautiful memorials, the monument will be of laminated granite, with & honed finish, in huge, solid blocks, each weighing 30 tons or more. On a large panel on each side will be carved the names of the little French villages and sectors of the battle front which the deeds of the 2d Divi- sion immortalized. Between the panels a large arch symbolizes the gateway to Paris and before it will be an upright, flaming sword, 16 feet long, on which the Indian-head insignia of the 2d Divi- sion will be embossed. Together with its approaches, the impressive struc- ture will be 26 feet high, 30 feet wide and 40 feet deep. It will be land- ecaped with trees and shrubbery, with & tall yew tree placed so it will fill the background behind the open, sword-guarded doorway. Work to Start at Once. Construction of the monument will begin immediately after the ground is broken. The memorial will be fin- ished early next Summer and will be dedicated by Gen. Harbord in July as & feature of the eighteenth annual Teunion of the 2d Division here. A distinguished gathering of diplo- mats, Army and Navy officers, heads veterans’ groups and persons prom- ent in civilian life is scheduled to attend the ground-breaking cere- monies. A delegation of Gold Star| Mothers, including several whose scns | died in action with the 2d Division,' and representatives of the American ‘War Mothers also will be in the re- viewing stand erected near Constitu- tion avenue for the occasion. The en- | “NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC MARCH” IS ANNOUNCED Capt. Darcy Composes New Work Inspired by Aid in Strato- sphere Trials. A new musical composition, “The National Geographic March,” was an- nounced here today by its composer, Capt. Thomas Darcy, leader of the United States Army Band. pt. Darcy has dedicated the march to Dr. Gilbert Grosvenor, president of the National Geographic Society. The march is of a stirring military type and is so constructed that during its course each of the band’s sections are brought into prominence in suc- cession. The Army Band has been rehearsing the composition for severl weeks and has played it before officials of The National Geographic Society and small groups of musicians. Capt. Darcy plans to include it in radio and concert programs. The idea for the march, according to Capt. Darcy, grew from the cd- operation of the Army and The Na- tional Geographic Society in strato- sphere exploration and aerial photo- graphic work. In musical phraseology he has symbolized the world-wide ac- tivities of the Society, as do its officlal flag colors, on sea and land, and in the air. o Domestic Science Popular. SALAMANCA, N. Y.

(#).—A “turn-the- lepers-loose” act of the Philippine | Legislature, though vetoed by Gov. Gen. Frank Murphy, promises, ac- cording to authoritative official opinion, to result in changes in the long-established present method of treatment of lepers. One predicted development is a drastic reduction of the size of Culion, world largest leper colony, an island where nearly 7,000 patients are seg- regated. « Appoints Commission. ‘Murphy accompanied his veto with the appointment of a commission of 10 members to consider changes in present methods and the group im- mediately started consideration of a proposal to decentralize treatment. ' By this there would be numerous small ||zrlcultunl colonies instead of one big colony at Culion. “I am in sympathy with any plan | making conditions under which the | lepers are segregated less drastic, provided such a plan does not create a situation dangerous to public health,” Murphy said in a statement accom- | panying his veto. This measure would have permitted .

Application for allocation of relief funds whereby the Social Security Board may set up a skeleton adminis- trative organization for the next few months has been made, it was an- nounced today in the name of the board. The amount requested was not disclosed, other than to say it ‘was approximately the estimated need as provided in the third deflclency ap- propriation bill. Today's announcement was the first made since the three-man board assumed office. Chairman John G. Winant, together with his associates, Arthur J. Altmyer and Vincent M. Miles, posed for photographers after making the announcement, but de- clined to make any further comment at this time on their plans. A small emergency staff of persons borrowed from other governmental agencies already is functioning in the security program. Principal need for administrative funds is to allow this curtailed organization to continue studies toward aiding individual States to perform their part of the entire program.

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1935. by the Chinese national government, says Miss Gertrude E. Hodgman, dean of the School of Nursing at the Rocke- feller-endowed Peiping Union Medi- cal College. Miss Hodgman has just returned from a tour of inspection of public health projects throughout the Yangtze River Valley. China’s need for trained health workers was realized by the foreign missions long age, Miss n said, but their work in this field has received government recognmnn only recently. Her trip revealed that everywhere along the Yangtze, where populatfon is dense, the government is now glad to receive the help of missions, and the foreigners are anxious to co-op- erate with officials in improving liv- ing conditions.
