BUILDING OF " HISSION N JAPAN Bpiscopal Diocese Auxiliaries d Hears Report Today Stamford, Oct. 24~—A word from Japan about the earthquake and the rebuilding of 8t. Luke's hospital in Toklo was brought to thedi ocesan hoard of womens' auxiliaries of the Prptestant Episcopal diocese of Con. néeticut by Dr. Tewsler, a mission- ary, at the second day’s session yes- terday. Before his address telling of the rebuilding of the missionary en- terprise the session listened to the anncal reports of the board and of- flcers. Right Rev. Bishop C. B, Brewster had charge of the opening service and Suffragan Bishop E. Campion Acheson also was present, Mrs. Acheson is president of the board and presided at the business session, A discussion of the budget ré- vealed that a deficit from last year of $2,900 was faced and while the finance committee had recommend- ed $7,705 for the coming year Mrs. Acheson pointed out that the way to meet the deficit was to limit outlay on many items of auxiliary work. A special pledge of $3,350 to- wards the woman's auxiliary for training women as missionaries was voted. Miss Grace Lindley, auxii- jary general council secretary, spoke on the training of ‘women for life work as missionaries, and the| pledge voted was an answer (o her | plea for funds. NEED $15,000000 10 REPAIR FLEET Curtaile¢ Funds Question May Waskington, Oct. 24. — An- nouncement at the navy department that the battleship Florida would be placed “in reserve,” and that the proposed winter cruise ‘to Aus- tralia. might be abandoned, has| again brought to the front in serv | ice circles the serious conscquences of curtailed funds for upkeep of | the ships. Already working under general | orders which limit repairs to 70 per cent. of recommended pro- | grams, bureau chiefs in Washington | recently have held continued con- | ferences in the effort to work out some plan by which vital work on | the principal units of the fleet can | be accomplished despite the short- age of funds. “Accumulating de-| terioration” i3 the nightmare which | haunts grey old seadogs who lovi their ships. In the intimacies of | club 4nd offce they are making | mathematical computations to show that & ship would be only 49 per cent. efficient after a sccond visit | to her home yard, and 35 per cent. i upon the third departure. Curtalled repairs are declared by members of the engineering staft already to be apparent in the oper ation of the fleet, one estimate he- ing that $15,000,000 would ba-re« quired to bring that force to its proper rating. A radig’ dispatch bearing on the subject was recently sent to all ships and stations. Calling atten- tion tq the “inadequacy of funds,” the department announced that “no alterations will be undertaken upon any ship until further instructions,” unlegs a bureau had made provi- slohs for them from'@& special ap- progpriation, “Alterations under way will be discontinued,” the orders «added, “unless too far advanced to make stoppage uneconomical.” While a limit of 70 per cent. ap- parently has been lald upon repair work, instances are cited fn which ships have psan withdrawn from their ways Avith only 30 or 40 per cent, of the scheduled work com- pleted, Further additions to the re- serve list are declared to be in prospect as the fiscal year grows older W]LL MARK ROUTES Trunk Lincs, Following Trail Bllled by Forelgn Flyers, to be Founded in Japan, Tokio, Oct. 24. — Acrial routes across Japan, already blazed by American, British and French avia- tors, are to be permanently estab- lished and equipped as trunk air routes, according to plans of the aviation bureau of the department of communications. The depart- ment's estimates for the 1925-26 budget contain an item of 5,000,000 yen for these routes. The program outlined by the aviation bureau covers five years, calling for a total expenditure of 21,000,000 yen. The 5,000,000 yen to be asked for the next fiscal year would be spent as follows: 500,000 yen for ordinary maintenance of flying fields, hangars and other equip! t on the routes; 3,500,000 yen for the establishment. of air and the establishment of new and the remaining million r subsidies to civilian avia- tion enterpris BAN WITHDRAWN. Chinese Minister of Education Will Allow Students to Study in U, S, Peking, Oct. The minister of education had rescinded his recent instruction to the provincial author- ities that the scending of students to Amer be dizcouraged, in order to avoid *a special intellectual influ- ence’” growing up in China as a rE- sult. In his new instruction the minister says: “A letter has been received from the ministry of foreign affairs stating that the American State De- partment has instructed itd consuls in China to issue mnon-immigrant assports to students going to Amfr- ica for the purpose of study in thos institutions recognized by the Unit- od States government. Thus, since the obstacle has been removed, ex- aminations should be held as usual without suspension.” HARMLESS LAXATIVE For Sick, Feverish, Bilious Children Mother!

Have Serious Consequences |+ SONS HOPES JANGER EX-HAISER “Little Willie” Wants to Desert Old Friends in Defeat Doorn, Oct, 24. = Life at the Chateau of Doorn has become, par- tieularly during the past few months, extremely animated, Every day, aimost, sees the arrival of fine auto- mobiles bringing princes, ex-ambals- -adors, former ministers and gen- erals who had served under the 0ld monarchial regime in Germany. Some of the visitors leave after a @ay or two; but others prelong their stay, reglding for the time belng in expensive “pensions’” where they make an ostentatious display of thelr war decorations, and pay al- most daily visits in full dress uni- form to the ex-Kalser, The former emperor appears to be doing everything possible to en- tertain and attract to himself the sympathies of all German monar- chist and military circles. His con- sort, Hermine, who burns with the desire and hope of one day becom- ing empres§ of Germany, seconds her husband in these efforts in the most active manner, and with all the grace at her command, by hold- ing grand receptions and entertain- ments, All these activities have for thelr principal object, according to what is related in the best informed quar- ters, to counteract similar ambi- tious projects entertained by the former crown prince. It is even sald that the rivalry between father and son has developed recently into a state of latent warfare, pursued merciléssly on both sides. The activity displayed since' his return to Germany by the former crown prince in political circles, es- pecially among the Nationalists gnd Monarchists and the younger gener- ation of militarists, which reach the ex-Kaiser from Berlin, serve to render the latter furious against his son. The prince, on his side, is said to show but lit- repect or admiration for the of the old regime and onored traditions. The ex-crown prince would seem to be desirous of breaking definite- ly with the ideas and personages of the past, and even to be willing to find himself at the head of a re- | gime purely democratic, provided that it was at the same time na- tionalist. The former emperor, on the contrary, clings desperately to the ideas and persons of the past, and shows Himself a bitter and” un- changeable enemy to all demo- cratic sentiments, | Remove stains from fabrics by soaking in cold strong borax water for half an kour.
