Sir James was to arrive on the Sat

To keep pace with the increasing
importance Of geography In CONNER

and charts are appearing, intended
especially for the business man, says
Popular Mechanics. As rapid trans
portation has reduced the distance be-
tween various parts Of the earth, bust.
ness mems markets now embrace al.
most every part Of the world. And the
modern globe is designed, not SO much
for the theoretical geographer. as for
the business man.
One interesting globe, invented by
an American railroad man, but manu-
featured in Germany, is almost com.
plete commercial geography in itself.
It gives not only the outlines Of the
various continents, but all the steam.
ship routes. all the sailing routes. all
the railroads, all the cables and tele.
graph lines. and the location of all
German consulates.
Fourteen different kinds Of lines are
used to indicate the nationality of the
ships sailing various routes. The van.
Gus drydocks. repair yards, coaling sta
tons and their capacities are all indi-
Gated. Figures on the globe give ocean

REPORT RIOTOUS
 BREAK IN CEYLON
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPArcHI


 LONDON. June 7.-There has been a riotous outbreak in CeylOn by Budd- hists against the Moslems, in which numerous Moslem shops were footed, and many murders occurred, according to an official communication made pub lie tonight. Martial law has been de- clared and the situation is reported as improving.
 The statement says: The governor of CeYlon reports that on the twenty eighth of May, the birthday of Buddha, Mosem shops in Randy were footed by the Buddhists. The outbreak was quelled in Randy but diffused through the central province where it was re- pressed by the arrival of a military detachment. On May 31, there was a later outbreak at Colombo. which sub sequently spread to the south.
 Martial law has been proclaimed in the Western. Central, Southern, North western and Sabara GamuWa provinces On the third of June the governor left Randy quietly and proceeded to Co., lombo. He found the town quiet but the district much perturbed. He hopes to suppress the disorder in few days. Much Moslem merchandise was des- troyed."
