PORTUGAL ENACTS PECULIAR STATUTE Makes 1t legal to Go Without Shoes Washington, D. C., Oct. 17.—Fail- ing to wear shoes will be against the law in Portugal after October 1. Because of the many adults who have been in the habit of going barefoot, In the cities us well as in the country districts, the authori- ties, according to dispatches, are expecting difficaities in enforcing the new statute. “This unusual law draws atten- tion to the great number of peopl in the world who still go unshod says a bulletin trom the ton, . C. headquarters of the Na- tional Geograpnic Society, “and to the varied kinds of footwear in use from the Polar regions to the Tropics. “The tropicul countrivs are strongholds of the great unshod. Africa, parts of Central America, the northern portion of South America, and in southern Asia, the the majority of the human feet are de- | void of any covering through the seasons and from the cradle to the grave. In the cooler parts of the earth both rigorons weather and the greater activity of the people have made foot coverings necessary dur- ing the winter months at leas “It is in the warm regiol outside the Tropics such as Egypt and Mesopotamia that we can trace civilization farthest into the past. There the slaves and lower classes could go comfortably throughout the year without protecting their feet, but the use of shoes for the upper classes developed at an early date, The primary consideration was to protect the bottoms of the feet, therefore the sandal was the first type of shoe to be invenetd. It was merely & flat piece of some protec- tive material bound loosely to the foot. Since wood was difficult to ob- tain both in the Nile and in the Ti- gris-Euphrates valleys, sandals of crudely plaited straw and reeds were first used. Later the Egyptians made sandals and light shoes of beautiful workmanship from leather and kid. “In Palestine, the ancient He- brews wore sandals made of a heavy plece of leather, of cloth, or less frequently of wood. A few of the latter, for rough use, were shod with jron. The Greeks and Romans, starting with a simple sandal, im- proved on it in time by adding edges that turned sides and at the back. A network of thongs passed over the top of the foot and around the ankle, fore- shadowing the closed shoe. The thongs became sheets of leather, and so shoes and boots were born in Europe. Cold Climate Gave Birth to Boots “In Central and Northern Europe the cold winters made it necessary, of course, to cover the feet and legs when out of doors. In early times, crude sacks of skins were made. Grass was stuffed in under the sole of the feet and around them to add warmth., Later well made boots of leather replaced this crude footwear. A parallel evolution took place among the American In- dians and the Eskimos where moc- cusins and soft close-fitting boots of skins came into use. “The Crusades, which affected the habits and customs of Europe 30 signally, marked the appearance of really serviceable leather shoes on that continent. S8oon style began to play its part in shoe evolution. Toes were lengthened and curved upward until, among the fops, it became necemsary to attach them to the knees—sometimes by golden chains. Sumpturary laws put an end to this development, and the fash- fon makers turned to heels. These were increasel until forms like those ©f women’s modern dress slip- pers were reached. “Although shoes of leather and other tanned hides of substantially the same form, are now the gener- ally accepted footwear of the West, millions of people both in Eastern and Western Hemispheres still wear Washing- | In| up along the CONNECTICUT LABOR SITUATION IMPROYING Conditions Better in All New Eng- land States Except New Hamp- shire Government Says Boston, Oct. 17 (UP)—General |improvement in New England iu- | dustrial congditions was rcported to- |day in the monthly bulletin of the U. 8. employment service.

Walsh it is alleged was then bound and taken to a lonely spot in New Hartford where all of clothes, except his socks, were re- moved and he was again grilled by his captors without result. Then the police say, they secured a piece of rope and making a noose slipped it over his head, tying one end under the chin and knotting the robe on top of his head to prevent him from strangling. They then strung him up to & tree where he was later found and released by neighbors who noticed the car driving into the woods with three men and returning with but two. The same people also took the number of Albertelli's au- tomobile and after finding Walsh, passed the information along to the New Hartford authorities who got in touch with the state police. Buperintendent Nichols of the state police when questiomed over the telephone this morning. stated that he was unfamiliar with the de- tails of the case. It was learned, however, that the two men were re- turned to New Hartford today in the custody of the state police and were scheduled to appear in the court of that town today. Lived Hermit's Life Walsh lived a hermit's life in his one room cabin. His nearest neigh- br was at least a mile away and as Walsh showed no inclination to visit his, he was left alone. The cabin, in which he lived, was built by himself several years ago and he earned some money by working as a wood- chopper. Even his employers never knew his first name. Albertelli Has Case Pending Albertelll was arrested by the local police several weeks ago when his automobile struck a child on School street. The case has never been disposed of because of the in- ability of the child to appear in court. Albertelll is charged with reckless driving and operating an automobile without a driver's license {and it i» understood that, although operating a car frequently, he still was without a driver's license.

DIVORGE PROBLEMS NOT IN THE CHURCH (Continued from FKirst Page) religious factors; that the commis- rion study and report to the next convention, first, on the ecclesiastical and canon law of this church in re- lation to marriage, divorce, and the annulment of marriage, and second, of the relation betwecn civil and re- ligious marriage.” Enumerates Factors The report enumerated a number of factors which social workers ha noted as tending to strain the mar- riage relations. Among these were hasty marriage, the lack of children, sex tension and the frequent dis- placement of the home as the unit of fumily life. The report said that some church- men felt that the increase in divorce is due to the fact that the church did not take the “same firm stand that is taken by the church of Rome in regard to the indissolubility of marriage. Conditions in Roman Catholic countries, however, are by no means reassuring, and studics of conditions in this country show that the desertion rate among so-called Roman Catholics is deplorably high.” Summarizing a questionnaire sent to about 800 clergymen of each of the Episcopalian, Presbyterian, Bap- tist, Methodist and Congregational churches, the report said that "di- vorces are mainly confined to men and women who are not regular church attendants and that divorce is relatively rare among those who are regular members of the com- munity. “What is nceded is the same thorough study and diagnosis that are characteristic of all good en. gineering and medical work toda; The report said, noting that *judges, lawyers, clergymen and social work- ers—who would appear qualified to speak on t e subject—suggest vari- ous causes and remedies frequently quite different from one another.” FLOURSPAR TARIFF RAISED BY COOLIDGE President Advances Rate Effective In 30 Days to $8.40 Per Lonz Ton, Washington, Oct. 17 (®—Presi- dent Coolidge today raised the tariff on Flourspar from $5.60 per long ton to $8.40 pcr long ton effective in 30 day In his proclamation the president said that such an incrcase in tariff was found to be necessary by an in- HOOVER RECEIVES HASSELL-CRAMER (Continued from First Page) inefficient, the latter being quite beyond the farmers’ control.

He told of the uphill fight which the missions are waging to bring about peace and reiated many incidents during the revolutions in which the | missionaries proved their worth. “The real leaders of China are in | the process of maturing and it will be ten or fifteen years before they will make their fullest contribution to the nation,” he said, and added “can we give them time to make their adjustments in their' own way?"

Mr. Kellogg said that he knew, as a member of the senate at that time, that Mr. Hoover had nothing to do with the fixing of the price, but that he was largely instru- mental in preventing a combination of allied countries from lowering the price of wheat, Secretary Kellogg spoke mostly of northwestern and Great lakes prob- lems and declarcd that Mr. Hoover was strongly in favor of the build- ing of the St. Lawrence river canal to give the great region in the norihwest an outlet to the sea. He sald that the United States is doing everything it can but that no canal could be built on the international scction without the cooperation of both governments and that he be- lieved the Canadian government was giving the project all the attention this country could ask.
