LECTURES ON ASIA
BEFORE n. G.. SOCIETY
Roy Chapman Andrews Addresses
Two Audiences on Research.

Recounting his adventures and
describing the results of the Asiatic
Geological Expedition, which explor-
ed the great plateau of Central Asia
lying south of the Himalayas. Roy
Chapman Andrews. its leader, ad-
dressed two audiences of the Ma
tional Geographic Society yester-
day. The route chosen by the ex-
pedition was across China from
Hong-Kong and up into Tibet. From
there they retraced their steps
through Yunnan, across Burma and
northern India, coming out at Cal
cutta and thence back to japan.
Mr.. Andrews illustrated his talk
with several reels of motion pic
lures. Coming into the city OF
Tali-fu they passed through the
same gate as did Marco Polo hun
dreds of years before.
Specimens of the birds, mammals
and reptiles were collected by the
expedition. which was sent out by
the American Museum of Natural
History. and its personnel consisted
only OF Mr.. Andrews, his wife and
Edmund Heller. of the U. s. Nation
al Museum. who also accompanied
Col Roosevelt on. his African trip,
Mrs. Andrews was the staff photog-
Tapher and Mr.. Heller collected the
smaller mammals. of which they
secured the largest collection ever
brought out of this territory. Mr.,
Andrews devoted himself to the
larger animals and directed the ex-
pedition. One of the Tibetan bear
cubs captured survived a trip OF
$4,000 miles and is now a guest al

CAMPS WILL train
SOLDIERS FOR stage
New Plans Provide Development of
Thespian Talent.

Under plans drawn up by Raymond
b. Fosdick, chairman Of the commits
sion on training camp activities, milf
tary training camps will be made
training grounds for soldier-actors, 1t
was announced yesterday.
Amateur dramatics will be made a
part of the comprehensive program
OF entertainment that the War De-
partment Commission on Training
Camp Activities has formed. follow
ing successful experiments which al
ready have been made along this line.
1t is proposed to organize soldiers
possessing dramatic talent into groups
or units. and to select as their leader
one of their number who has had
previous experience in theatricals. The
general organization and development
of the amateur companies will be un-
der the supervision of a director. The
whole idea, Mr.. Fosdick explains. is
to teach the men to be self amusing
and will in no way interfere with the
commissions plan of having the big
theatrical producers go into the camps
to put on their productions for The
benefit of the soldiers

US. WILL TAKE
WOOLEN MILLS
FOR UNIFORMS
All Looms Suitable for Max
ing Cloth for Army
Affected.

The government has decided to take
possession Of all the looms suitable
for the making Of cloth for American
army uniforms that the country al
fords. This decision has been reached
by the War Department and 1t Is
expected the notification will go to
all woolen mill owners today.
This action is taken, it was under
stood last night, on the suggestion
and initiative of Acting Quartermaster
Gen. Goethals. His division OF the
War Department will take possession
of the mills it deems suited to its
needs, and run them, through their
present organizations, for the beneht
Of the government. Owners of the
mills will be protected against none
tary loss, but details have not yet
been announced as to protective ar
rangements.
The War Industries Board, it Is un-
derstood, will make any agreements
needed to safeguard the interests oil
the government, at the same time pro
tecting mill owners.
General GoethaIs a few days ago
announced the receipt Of a report
from his special clOth investigating
committee. and adopted their recon-
mendatlOnS as 10 SpeCl4lCdllOlS lOi
all future army uniforms now in use,
especially as regards weight of cloth
and employment of rewerked WOOL
or shOddy.
With demands coming in for vastly
greater numbers OF uniforms and
coats. due to the increased draft QUO
tas and early overseas shipments
planned within the last few days
General Goethals is understood TO
have decided he could best meet the
needs by taking over the mills This
will eliminate all possibility of fric-
tiOn or delay due to disagreement
over cloth specifications. delivery.
prices, etc.
Seizure of the mills by the War De-
partment is expected to involve the
expenditure of millions of dollars. The
Department is counting on OffsettinS
this expense by savings in manufac-
tUre and increased speed in turning
out The finished product. New Eng
Iaud. eastern Pennsylvania and New
York are the regions most vitality
affected by the decision.

political significance in the action
taken by the commander OF the Japa-
nese fleet. The belief is held that
has been growing In
Vladivostok in the last week and that
have been operating
openly.
The Japanese commander sent a
force great enough TO ward OF at
tacks upon the Japanese citizens Of
the city should they be forced to
seek safety aboard the japanese. war
ships in the harbOT.
War Supplies In Heaps.
japanese business houses and the
public. warehouses contain millions OF
dollars worth of merchandise and war
supplies shipped from the allied coun-
tries. More than s1,OOO, 100 worth OF
war supplies from the United States
are piled upon the docks. Men in
close touch with conditions in Nladi-
vostok say that the taking of life by
Russian bandits may be only pre-
Iude to 1ooting, and If lawlessness
breaks out foreign property will be
among the first seized by Russians.
AIthouSh the japanese have prepared
to meet any outbreak with ample
forces. american marines and sailors
aboard American warships in the Pa
cific may be called upon TO assist in
protecting American property in the
affected zone.
One of the interesting questions
brought to a head by the failure OF
the Vladivostok police to guard the
lives of the Japanese residents is
whether the Japanese government will
treat with the present Russian govern
ment as a political entity. 1t is a mat
ter of established precedent that the
japanese force will not be withdrawn
until assurances have been given to
Japan that her citizens will be protect
ed. Furthermore. Japan probably will
not withdraw her armed forces until
she has demanded and received an
apology and explanation.

BEN JOHNSON
SAYS HE FINDS
D. G. CLANNISH
Hence Need Of Pushing the
Rent Pro6teering Bill,
He Tells Senators.

Declaring that a "clannishness'' ex-
lists among the people OF ~" District
such as he has not found to exist in
any other part OF the country, Chair
man Ben johnson '-'ore a Senate
subcommittee yesterday urged the
need of his so-calleG rent profiteering
bill and its passage in its present
form.
Chairman johnson made this dec
laration when arguments were put
forward for the substitute Tinkham
measure, stating that he did not be-
lieve a resident for rent administra-
tor could be found with sufficient
backbone to stand between the land
lords owning some $4OO, 900 go worth Of
property and the humble tenant
The Tinkham BILL" Chairman
johnson continued. provides that a
rent administrator shall be appointed
and that he shall be a resident of
the District of Columbia. l cannot
see any reason why he should be a
resident of the District and | can see
may reasons why he should not
III a resident were appointed, he
would be a man OF affairs. And the
purpose Of the bill would then be
defeated"
Mr.. johnson told the subcommittee
OF a tendency he said existed now of
colorful sales Of property to force the
tenant to quit the property. and voic-
ed the belief that a new clause should
be inserted to remedy this practice.
He urged most upon the subcommit-
tee the need for nonelastic legislati ton
which will curb the profiteering In
rents during the duration of the war
and one year afterward. He said that
he now believed that the bill should
remain ip force longer than one year
after the war ended. He declared that
to permit the law Of supply and de-
mand to govern here at a time like
this would be reprehensible.
