From now on the proposition prevent accidents in the Connecticut resolves into an attempt to intensify and to pro more care than has been exercised in the past Discipline must ha more actively ap plled and the warning systems a conducted by organizations must be speeded up. The department has recefved from #0me of those organizations a sub stantial number of complaints and in each instance has followed up and tried to accomplish the corrective ac- tion needed. More of this is needed Fatal Accidents A comparison of the statistics of fatal aceldents covering a period of | six months in each of the years 1920, 1921 and 1522 can now be made. 1920 January to July .. 1921 January to July... g 1922 January to July .........

TFor a time it was the| only city which the authorities of China permitted to have intercourse wtih ‘the western barbarians.’ “Canton's priority was not alone in trade. The first Roman Catholic mis- slonaries to China settled in 1571 at Macao, a few miles down the river from Canton, and ten years later he- gan wrk in Canton itself. The city, too, had one of the first Moham- medan mosques to be established among the Chinese; and there in 1807 the first Protestant missionary to White Kid, White Canvas White Nu- Buck, Also Sport Combi- nations in Black, Russia Pricked By Western Ideas. “Although the Cantonese were probably more alert to begin with the Chinese of other regions, they undoubtedly have heen quick- ened and made more progressive by the constant stimulus of contact with westerners during the past 400 years Their western visitors aroused their curiosity, with the result that the Cantonese are, par ‘excellence, the emigrantg of China. Thousands of them have graduated from the Unit- tates and Canada, South America, South Africa, and rope, where, while serving as cooks or laundry- men, restaurateurs, shopkeepers, or lottery magnates, they have in some measure absorbed western ways and ideas. Back in Canton, they have not failed to leaven somewhat the oriental lump.

To Answer Charges of Undue Influ- ence in Will Contest. Los Angeles, July 14.—Miss Gloria Swanson, film actress, will appear in court here to answer charges made against her and her mother of undue influence in connection with the will of the late Matthew P. Burns, step- father of the actress, it was an- nounced here yesterday by Josepn Scott, her attorney. The case re- volves around application by Mrs. Burns, Gloria's mother, to yrobata the will of her late husband, who was a shoe merchant here, and the contest against this by his relatives. Hearing of testimony by Burns' rel- atives to support their charge that Burns was of unsound mind and un- duly influenced by Miss Swanson and her mother into the marriage and into framing of the will, which left the bulk of his estate to Mrs. Burns, was completed yesterday. Mrs, Burns and the actress took the stand today to defend their claims and‘ refute charges against them.
