) WANT INNEDUTE WORK IN SAN 0 Porty Rico Trying to Find Em- Ployment for Poople San Juan, Porte Rico, Sept. 22 (P ——Fearing that permanent disaster ‘would result if relief work were pro- longed to the point of charity, Porto Rican leaders today were consider- ing how the problem might be met by immediate employment. In the hope that a definite program might be planned, Chairman Andres Can- dia of the Porto Rico Red Cross called a meeting of representatives from all towns for Monday. Returning from a three day sur- wvey of the districts devastated by the hurricane, a medical comhission re- ported that the people who suffered most were the rural Jivaros, or country workers. In normal times they have next to nothing and now they have not even that. Faco Hard Task The physiclans were convinced that a long, difficult ond essential task faced the relief forces in en- abling at least one-third of the island’s popualtion to become self- sustaining. They were prepared to suggest no means to do this. In some towns they found that un- der intelligent local leadership there wdre already evidences of beginnings made toward & new life, The physicians who made the sur- vey were Colonel Bailey K. Ashford, U. 8. medical corps, retired; Dr. Robert A, Lambert, heaud of the school of tropical medicine of the University of Porto Rico and Colum- bia University; and Dr. Walter A. Glines, who has had 20 years' ex- perience in tropical medicine. They will embody their impressions in a « Teport to the secretary of war. The physiclans believed that in some places part of the coffee crop, a vital economic factor, might be salvaged. The extent of the damage to the coffee trees which will deter- mine the crop for the next five years would be learned only in time. Motor trucks, loaned by civilians reinforced the national guard and army vehicles rushing food to the in- land points, In ohe motfning enough food to last 25,000 persons one day ‘was moved out of Ban Juan. g Comes to Ald The Dominican Republic has come to the aid of Porto Rico sending plantains, yams, yautia and other foods which the islanders usually eat. President Vasquez of the re- public cabled the Red Cross asking where fresh fruits and vegetables could best be landed. ‘Widespread destruction of public schools has brought forth charges of faulty construction. In recent years, many towna have been build- ing elaborated and costly concrete schools and most of these crumbled while nearby bulldings supposed to be of inferior conatruction weather- ed the storm.

Dressed in their picturesque regalia, the In- dians were preparing to adopt “Charlie” Curtis into their tribe, 1f the opportunity afforded. Chief Plenty Coos of the Crows had made the arrangements for the ceremon- fal. Real Indian Country This is a real Indian country and it looked the part today with the tribes from all sections of the state encamped about. Not far from here General Custer fought his last fight against the Indaans and it was plan- ned to show tHe senator the scene of the massacre later today. Senator Curtis welcomed the In- dian pow wow, the second he has attended this week, as a brief inter- lude in his whirlwind campaign of the morthwest. But later today he hurried on to Billings, where he is to speak tonight. The repuklican vice presidential nominee took the republican campaign into Wyoming last night in a speech to a crowd which overflowed the newly erected tabernacle in which revival services soon will be held. He urged a high- er tariff on agricultural products and attributed the farmers' troubles to the Underwood tariff act in ef- fect at the close of the war.

WILKING ENGAGED 70 BE HARRIED Pole Expeditioin New York, Sept. 22 (M—When Captain Sir George Hubert Wilkins is in the Antarctic on his aerial ex- ploring expedition, one of the most interested in his exploits will be Miss Buzanne Bennett, actress, and Australian like the eaptain, On the dve of his sailing she announced they were engaged. Captain Wil- kins refused to discuss the matter. Captain Wilkins sails today aboard the Munson liner Southern Cross for Montevido, Uruguay, from where he will go on a whaler to De- ception Island, bese for his explor- ing flights. “Yes it is true,” Miss Bennett shid when asked concerning the rumors of their engagement. *“We have been engaged for a couple of days.” She said no date had been set for the wedding and refused to discuss the details of her meeting with the Arctic explorer. Native of Melbourne Miss Bennett, a native of Mel- bourne, had the lead in “Guns”, a Broadway' play which recently closed. ‘Prior to that she had ap- peared in two other plays and sev- eral years ago was in Earl Carroll's “Vanities”, 8he is a slender bru- nette, Captain Wilkins who won his title, with the Australian forces in the’ world war, flew aeross the “Top of the World” last spring, from Point Barrow, Alaskd, to Spitzenbergen. His planned Antarctic flights are said to be the most hazardous and difficult ever undertaken. He must depend on some whaler in the Ross 8ea to pick him up at the end of his flight along Graham Land and the southern ice barrier. He will be accompanied on his flights by | Lieut, Carl Ben Eilson, who flew | with him across the Arctic, and Joseph Crossan. He was knighted by King Gecrge after his Arctic flight.

Sharp Earthquake Is Felt on Instruments Washington, Sept. 22 (P — An earthquake described by Director Tondorf as “Very, ver. heavy,” was recorded today on the instruments 3f Georgetown university. It began at 2:51 a. m., and lasted for four hours. Its maxamum in- tensity, beginning at 3:33 a. m., con- tinued for 20 minutes which is a very unusual occurrence. Director Tondorf estimated that the center of the disturbance was 5,000 or 6,000 miles from Washing- ton, but the direction could not be determined. TO STOP FIGHTING London, Sept. 22 (UP)—A Daily Mail dispatch from Tientsin said that after an all-night conference | thrée generals—representing the na- tionalists, Mukdenites and northern- ers—had agreed to a cessation of fighting. The conditions of the agreement were not disclosed. NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, IDIAMOND VETERANS STRATON ANSWERS SMITH TONIGHT New -York Pastor o Speak in Oklahoma City, Sept. 22 (®—To- night has been set by .Dr. John Roach Straton, fundamentalist Bap- tist pastor of New York, campaign- ing against Governor Alfred E. Smith, to answer charges made by the presidential candidate in his speech here Thursday_ night. Dr. Straton in an address last night said he had arranged for a second appearance at the coliseum tonight, at which time he would dis- cuss “in every detail” the governor's allegations that his religion had been made a campaign issue, and that a “whispering campaign” was in progress. " Same Platform Bpeaking from the same platform where the New York governor 24 hours earlier had pleaded for toler- ance and pilloried certain organiza- tions and people for attacking him on what he .declared ‘“religious grounds,” the pastor charged the governor with raising the religious issue to hide his own ‘“muddy record.” “Not one of us have raised the re- ligious issue,” he said. “I have not said one word concerning Governor #mith's right to worship God accord- ing to his own dictates. There has not been the rcligious issue except as he has lugged it in. *“I have not come here to stir sectarian bitterness nor to arouse religious or personal prejudice.” Governor Smith was labelled a tool of Tammany Hall by the pas- tor, who was frequently applauded by the moderately-sized crowd in the hall. NEW ENGLAND T0 HEAR HODVERLATER Will Make Speech Just Before Leaving Tor West Washington, 8ept. 22 (P—The controversy stirred up by Alfrtd E. Smith’s Oklahoma City declaration on religious intolerance still awirled and eddied today, but Herbert Hoo- ver was silent on the subject as he worked away on the next address of his campaign. | | The repubncan presidential candi- date seems to be content to stand on the statement he made in-his ac- ceptance address. Then he said that “by blood and conviction I stand for religious tolerance both in act and spirlt,” adding that “the glory of our American ideals is the right of every man to worship God according to the dictate of his' own con- aclence.” May Force Him to Talk Whether the development of the campaign wiil lead him to make an- other pronouncement upon the sub- Jject only the future can tell. Those who profess to know his views assert that a decision to do so would be reached only with great reluctance. Prohibition is another subject on which the republican nominee does not intend to have more to say dur- ing the campaign, although it has been repeatedly reported that he | would go into that proposition again | in his Elizabethton, Tenn., speech on October 6. Under gpresent plans there will be no addresses before that one and none between that and the one at New York city on October 16. The New England speech will be made late in the campaign shortly beforc his departure for California. Works on Speech Hoover finds time only intermit- tently for work on the Elizabethton speech, but he 18 giving as much ef- fort to it as he can. Visitors who come to sce him now find him writing away on a pad, which he lays aside to talk with them, but few realize that he thus is preparing a campaign address. Much of his time is taken up with conferences. On his calling list today were several visitors, among them Senator Pine of Oklahoma, bringing fresh reports from his state, where the democratic candidate spoke Thursday night. Another is Repre- sentative Hamilton 1%sh of New York, who is doing campaign work in the east for the national ticket. Substitutes Bricks for Liquor; Goes to Jail London, Sept. 22 (P—Sixty days in prison with hard labor is the tence that John O'Rourke, a Glas- gow truckman, has received for sub- stituting bricks for 24 bottles in two cases of a load of whiskey which he was conveying from the railroad station to the docks. News dispatches from the Scot- tish port say that this case may be an explanation of many complaints received from certain quarters in the United States that whiskey cases from the Clyde districts often con- tained hard stuff in the form of bricks instead of Scotch blends. Says Title Isn’t Worth Bothering to Give Up London, Sept. 22 (A—Young Os- wald Mosley, whose father, 8ir Os- wald Mosley died yesterday, is not going to reject the title despite his socialistic beliofs, says the Evening Star in a dispatch from Nice whence Mosley is returning to England to- day. “I shall retain the tilte,” the dis- patch quotes him as saying. “It is rot worth giving up. Titles count for nothing nowadays. Young Mosley sald that he would continue his work as labor member of parliament. DR.

SAY ACCORD WILL OFFEND UNCLE AN British Press Criticizes Agree- ment With France London, Sept. 22 (A—With terms of the Anglo-French naval com-- promise gradually becoming known, the opposition presses today criticis ed it as bound to offend the United States. Even papers not hostile to the| government dwelt on the mischief which had been done Ly the failure of the government to reveal the terms. The papers carried abstracts cabled from the United States after publication by some papers of what purported to be the text, The French have been insisting that the terms be revealed immedi- ately, but the British have withheld consent, Advices from Geneva assert that the accord covers an agrecment be- tween France and Great Britain that a disarmament confcrence shall deal with these classes of naval vessels, 1—Surface ships of 10,000 tons or | less armed with guns ‘over six and | up to eight inchies in calibre, 2—Ocean going submarines of more than 600 tons. 3—Capital ships of more than 10,- | 000 tons or armed with guns ex- ceeding eight inches in calibre, 4—Airplane carriers of more than 10,000 tons.

It gives Great Britain un- | limited small eruisers, France un- | limited small submarines and gives | America nothing she wanted. It is! almost too crude to be tru The Socialist Herald said: “Pub- lication of this document will deep- en the indignation and distrust al- ready aroused in the United States, | and the results will be disastrous. Anglo-American relations already are none too good, and this folly will make them worse.” The Morning Post alone of com- | mentations laid the blame for any |injury to international relations upon persons in America interested in creating an impression of con- spiracy against the United States and upon a “press utterly unscru- pulous in pursuit of its political end.” “The transcendent folly” of the British government making a mys- | tery of a “clumsy and unappetizing | document which led the American | people to think that Great Britain was trying to hide something” was denounced by the Daily Chronicle.

It was not the first time in the athletic history of New Britain that a championship in a diamond battle went to a team of veterarns over a club of youths, and undoubtedly many fans in the city who were in the bleachers last Saturday recalled a series that ended in “much the same way at Pioneer field on Ellis street in 1913, just 15 years ago this season. The Independents, managed by Jim Luby, and the Pioncers, un- der management of the late Julius Rosna, were the foes and the Inde- pendents won three straight games and the championship of the cit. Throughout the season of 1913, the Pioncers rode roughshod over a string of crack semi-pro clubs, in- cluding 1 Springs, Williman- tic, the Irish Boys of Wallingfotd, the Newficlds of Bridgeport and a number of others high up in the race for the state honors, while the Independents were having a touglh| time with their schedule, losing a number of hard fought games at home and on the road. The Royals of Hartford, Manchester and other high class teams locked horns with the Lubyites and while the locals played good bal their record on pa- per was not nearly as impressive as that of the Pioneers. Hot Rivalry For Title Both local clubs were pointed for the championship series and the rivalry between players and rooters was fully as hot as that between the Burritts and Falcons or any of the present Industrial or City League teams. In addition to-the will to win for the glary that went with vie- tory, the clubs had an eye to the financial end of the series, for the and up- wards of 2,000 fans were certain to on hand for every game. The of the Pioneers for the champion- ship but the teams seemed to be more evenly matched in 1913, al- though as it turned out, the Inde- pendents were far too classy for their younger opponents. The players who took part in that series and are active in the game to- day, are: Mickey Noonan, who caught for the Pioneers and is now doing the backstopping for the Fal- cons; Warner Johnson, who twirled for the Ploneers and was relief pitcher for the BStanley Works, champions of the Industrial League this scason; Joe Fitzpatrick, Ploneer first baseman who starred for the Rangers in the clash with Kensing- ton last Sunday; “Buggy” Fitz- patrick, third baseman and leading hitter for the Pioneers, who was with local teams early this season; Steve Dudack, who played the outfield for the Pioncers and still roams the pasture for the Gascos; Johnny Schroeder, who caught for the In- dependents and has the same job with the Stanley Works; *“Red" Campbell, who played shortstop for the Independents and was a main- stay of*the West Ends this year, playing third base, second base and the outfield, besides wielding a potent bat; Eddie Goeb, star out- fielder for the Independents and ©ne of the leuding members of the Landers club in the Industrial League. Blanchette's Big Season Tommy Blanchette, whose pitch- ing was one of the sensations of tne City league season, had one of his bese Seasons in 1913 when he twirle ed for the Traut & Hine team in the Industrial league, and also worked for other teams in Sunday games. Although the Traut & Hine outfit was weak, due principally to the fact that there were comparatively few baseball players employed in the plant, Blanchette managed to win a game now and then. It was common talk in the league, though, anyone who hit the ball on the ground was sure of a base ard even fly balls that should have been easy outs often went for base hits. Blanchette, according to the rec- ords of the league for that season, struck out 18 men in a game against Corbin Consolidated at Pioneer field, yet lost the game by several runs. Had he been with one of the leading teams, he would probably have gone through without a defeat, and his success in the City league this yvear made him look more like the star of other days than he has in any season in the meantime. Basile Stars Despite Handicap Another veteran of 15 seasons or more is Tothmy Basil, who had one of his most successful seasons in the outfield for the West Ends. Al- though having but one arm, Tommy in the City league and is always up among the leading hitters. His work has for some time been a feature of the West Ends drive for the cham- pionship and in the deciding game everyone on both teams and among the spectators realized that the end had come when Tom.ny got set un- der Bill Mangan’s high fly to cen- ter field. Tommy never clutched a ball any tighter in his life than he did at that moment, Mrs. Kaly at Odds With Fire Department Cambridge, Mass., Sept. 22 (UP) —Mrs. Catherine Kelly, housewife, nd Cambridge firemen were not on speaking terms today.
