SAYS PART OF LECTURE
WAS misunderstood
Admiral Chester Did Not Challenge
Right Of U. S. 10 Fix Tolls
for Foreign Vessels.
OBJECTION BY ENGLAND.
Considerable Discussion Caused BY
Panama Speech.
Postponed.

Admiral Colby NJ. Chester, u.
S. NJ, (retired), whose address on
tie Panama Canal, before the Ma
tioual Geographic Society last Fri-
day night caused considerable discus
sion, states that wrong construc-
tion has, I'm some quarters. been
placed on those parts of his lecture
referring to the system of tolls pro-
vided for the canal in the bin passed
by Congress last June.
Admiral Chester states that his re-
marks did not constitute a challenge
of the moral. ethical or legal
rights" of the United States to fix a
schedule of tolls to be paid by for
eign-built ships using the canal. A
portion of the lecture dealing with
this subject, giving Admiral Ches-
ter's language verbatim. follows:
But is it necessary for us to run
the risk of breaking up our trade re-
lations, not only with England, but
with practically every Other country
in the world, in order to maintain
our rights at Panama Can we not
accomplish our purpose in some way
that shall not bring the country into
disrepute?
Whatever objections England may
offer to privileges granted by the
United States to her own vessels
using the canal, any attempt on her
part to bar rebates would be illogi-
cal. France, Russia, Austria Hun
gary and Sweden, to a greater or less
extent, have for years made direct
refund OF Suez canal tolls q part of
their mail subsidy syStem, and indi-
rectly the mail subsidies of England,
Germany, Italy and Japan have rec
oganized and provided for Suezscanal
tolls. Why cannot we do the same
for our shipping that will use the
Panama canal. whether il be the
coasting vessels or those engaged in
foreign commerce, just as all these
countries are bound to do, in accord
ance with their long-estabIished poll
cies?
eff we place our shipping that uses
the Panama canal, both coastal and
toreign, on exactly the same footing
as those Of every other country, and
grant subsidies equal to the toll on
more, even, as we have perfect
right to do, we shall at once remove
the obj sctions of other nations to our
hastily considered act Of Co, gress
passed last June -
These remarks, Admiral Chester
explained, were originally contained
in an address before the Massachu-
setts State Board of Trade at Spring
field on November 13, and reported
in full in the issue of the Springfield
Republican of the following day.

INTERESTING TALK.
Before St. ABne's Parish Branch Of
the Woman's Auxiliary.

At the regular monthly meeting OF
the WOmsns' Auxiliary yesterday
afternoon the members and friend:
had the great pleasure of listening
to an inspiring talk by Miss Sallie
Stuart, of Alexandria.
Miss Stuart was an officer in the
first branch of the auxiliary when ii
was organized in Baltimore by the
board of Missions in 1871, and has
been heart and soul in the work ever
since. She has visited every mission
IN the State of Virginia, all through
the mountains and all through the
country, including the Norman work
~ Utah. and the missions in Alaska.
She said in part
The aim of the Woman's Auxil-
iary is to bring every womaa in every
parish, in every diocese ali over the
world into cooperation as a soldier
and servant of Jesus Christ 1t is to
inspire her to pray, to study and to
give, to extend His kingdom. The
women of today have a special oppor-
tunity to bring in all the women of
the church This is the day of oppor-
tunity for the church is awakening
to worldwide view, ard men of
affairs are taking up the task of
world-evangelization. The nineteenth
century made US neighbors, but the
twentieth century has made us broth
ers.
The Woman's Auxiliary is the
most wonderful organization in the
world, inspired with the largest pur-
pose and capable of the most tremen-
dous results. We should realize its
privileges, its responsibilities and
its possibilities, and not rest until
every baptized woman in the church
works with us. The women of to-
day, through modern machinery and
manufacturers, have more time than
their grandmothers. What are you
going to do with that time? Use
part of il at least for Gods service
that you may study and work fer the
extension of His kingdom. The Wo-
mans Auxiliary is a dynamic force
its work is evangelistic, medical and
educational, a personal work for a
personal Christ.
christian Womanho0d can make
our great country whatever she
chooses. It is pity there was ever
any distinction as to foreign and do
mestic missions, as the work should
be called church extension. But we
must remember that without foreign
missions we ourselves might be
heather. We are only returning to
the East what we received from Pales-
tine. The Auxiliary has particularly
at heart work by women among and
for women and children. 1t stands
for information, inspiration and as
piration. In bringing Christ to the
world we are brought closer to Him
aid have the wonderful privilege of
being co workers with God
81 am but one, but ! am one
canLot do everything, but
can do something;
What can do, ought to do,
What ought to do | will do
God being my helper"
All business was postponed and
there will be a special meeting for
business only on Saturday morning,
December 2, at ii o'clock. The meet
ing will be short, but the business is
of great Importance and all members
are urged to be in the 0uild Room
of st. Anne's Church at that hour.

MIOSHIPMAN BLANDY
LOSES HIS COMMAND
Give Striper" Of Regiment Re-
duced for Misconduct.
ABSENT WITHOUT LEAVE.
Violated Orders by Not Turning Up in
Time iOr March TO Franklin
Field.

The trip of the brigade Of midship-
men to Philadelphia last Saturday for
the Army-Navy game resulted SER
iOusly to At least one Of the middies.
1t became known today that VIM.
II. +. Blandy, of Delaware, the lead
ing scholar of che graduating class
and cadet-commander of the brigade,
the highest rank that may be attained
by midshipman, had been deprived
of that Office for absence from his
command during a part of the sojourn
while in the Quaker City. Immediate
ly after the return OF the middies
the authorities TO the Academy start
ed an investigation with the result
that il was decided to strip Blandy
of his command. In addition TO be-
ing disrated he was also assigned 25
demerits.
1t is understood that Blandy left
the miishipmen following luncheon
at the University of Pennsylvania. and
did not return in time TO march with
the brigade to Franklin Field. He
was in his place at the field shortly
afterward, however. But Superin-
tendent Gibbons had issued explicit
orders that none of the midshipmen
would separate until after the game.
Then certain privileges were permis-
sible.
The Superintendent has designated
Everett Leroy Gayhart, of Ohio, 20
succeed Blandy. 1t is also said that
several other midshipmen were nip
ped in the bud for minor offenses.

EMPTY STOCKING CLUB.
SOIieils Gifts for Christmas for Poor
Children's Stockings.

YOU may think because comfort
and happiness surrounds you there is
no want about the town and county,
but this is a mistake. Many poor
children will not have their Christ
mas stockings filled unless the Empty
Stocking Club does the filling, and It
takes several weeks to do it.
Mrs. Paul Capron, 179 Duke Of
Gloucester street, has kindly offered
her home as a clearing house for dolls
and toys, games and books and candy,
too. Don't forget the candy, for it
would not be Christmas without candy.
It isn't only the grown-ups who are
bringing in their old toys. The chill
dren are coming, too. Some children
are so fortunate that they get a
whole new batch Of toys every Christ
mas. Sometimes they just have to
give some Of the old ones away to
make rom for the new ones. Think
Of thatl Sometimes they throw
them away.
But now they can just bring them
10 the Empty Stocking Club and rest
assured that Santa Claus will get
them and that he will as conse-
quence add another name to his list
the name OF some little girl or boy
who maybe wouldn't otherwise have
been on there at all. so look them
up. There are lots Of dolls, games,
blocks. fire engines, locomotives,
automobiles. dishes and baby carri-
ages that aren't working that Santa
Claus can we'll use. And when you
have looked them up, bring them
around
Everybody should take a look into
their garrett or cellar to find out If
there are any old toys, games or
books to give to the Empty Stocking
Club and send them nowl
