SEVEN MILLION TN
 NEED OF TRAINING
Industrial Workers Handicapped By Lack of Opportunities for
 Self Improvement.

Washington! D. C., June 17.-That seven million of the 0Q,O00,O00 in- duStrlal workers in this country are handicapped by lack of adequate op- portunities for self improvement is the statement of the director of the C. S. training service of the depart ment of Ia bor, based on investig gations made in a large number of typical
 manufacturing plants and on personal interview with manufacturers, shop superintendents and foremel4.
 Modern industry has developed many important lines of manufac cture of such limited skill that no appren- ticeships have been instituted for them. In the skilled lines apprentice- ships are haphazardly conducted. Tn most lines of production where there is no apprenticeship adequate training is wholly lacking and so employers and employees are at a great disad- vantage.
 It is to overcome this needless bur den on American production that training courses in plants are advo- cated by the training service. To back up it's claim that this method of fitting men for their jobs is profita ble, the service exhibits g, number of charts showing the transformation wrought in workers who were sent through training departments. These show that on the average the new enploye learns his new work in about half the time formerly required and that old employes of mediocre skill, or less, can be "upgraded" to equal some of the best. Others are fitted for promotion by training.
 Not only is the average production raj 1,1-f Q iI1tr t,-oi but labor turn over is reduced and spoilage is much less. The factories having training departm ents find that in most cases thev are Self-Sllpnor

INTERNATIONAL SITUATION
 IS GIVEN IN BRIEF OUTLINE

Immediately after the assem bly has acted, it IS expected, the chief of the German delegation will start on his return trip to Versailles.
 The detailed reply, a, summary of which was made public in Paris on Monday night, fails to make material alterations in the fundamental feat ures of the treaty. There are some concessions but they appear to be of 8, rather minor nature compared with the demands made by the Germans in their counter proposals. One of the principal concessions is the admission of Germany to the league of nations 'in the early future'' if she fulfills her obligations.
 A notable feature of the allied re- ply was the covering letter by Pre- nnler Cle.nenceau, president of the peace con gress, which was a scathing a.rraignment of Germany for launch ing the war and conducting hostilitiea so ruthlessly. It pointed out that the German people supported the war and that the peace of justice demanded must be one of justice not only for Germany but for the other peoples of the world.

ing over his wife. who was lying on the pavement.
 II asked him what the trouble was said Sergeant Schneider, ''and he replied that there were burglars in the house."
 The policeman testified that the doctor was wearing a battered hat and that the lapel of his coat was torn. The witness identified the lead pipe, the hammer the derby, and a hat belonging to Mrs Wilkins, which have been included in the evidence. He found no cigar nor cigarette stubs, the witness continued He also stated that he examined the locks and win dows of the house, but found none broken. He testified that he tried to get some answer from Mrs. Wilkins as to the identity of her assailant but found she was unable to speak He repeated the story the doctor told him that night of having been at tackled by three robbers.
 Patrolman White, who stayed all night in the house with the doctor after the crime, testified how the de- fendant spent a sleepless night, re- fusing to go to bed. He testified that the doctor had said a lovc-knot pin, a watch and $40 or $50 in cash had been taken from him by the robbers The doctor early the next morning broke down and cried for twenty minutes, the witness said. A dog of the doctors that was badly hurt dur ing the crime was in the room all night with the two men. according to the policeman.
 Miss Frances O'Nelll, who lived in the house next to the Wilkins home, told of how the doctor had come to her that night and asked her to call for the police. The last witness of the day was a Mrs. Rudolph Duisbers, who was in the same house as Miss

DOCTOR HAD NO
 LOVE FOR WIFE
Charge Of Prosecutor in Wilkins
 Murder Trial

Mineola, L. l., June 17.--In his opening address before the jury that is trying Dr. Walter Keene Wilkins for the murder of his wife, Julia. at their home in Long Beach on Feb. 27 last, District Attorney Charles R. Weeks declared that while the evi- dence in the case was largely cir cumstantial, he would prove that the doctor had no affection for his wife, that he had married her for money. and that he was afraid of losing that money. The district attorney also said that the prosecution was pre- pared 10 show that pr. Wilkins story about the attack by burglars. whom, he declared, killed his wife, was false.
 Several witnesses were called, chief among them Police Sergeant Harry C. Schneider of the Long Beach po- lice, who described incidents when the police arrived at the scene of the murder. The doctor, who has maintained a stoical expression of calmness throughout the selection of the jury, for the first time evinced signs of mental distress.
 During the cross examination of Sergeant Schneider the defense made a, point in support of their conten- ton that 1t was a robber who fe1Ied Mrs. Wilkins with a hammer, when the policeman admitted finding a pocketbook owned by Dr. Wilkins 100 yards back of the doctors home the morning after the crime
 Sergeant Schneider testified that he met Dr. and Mrs. Wilkins the evenin q of the murder when they got off the train at Long Beach and spoke to them. At s:53 that night, he said he was called accompanied by Pa trolman Ebert White.
