MONITOR MISMAMAGED,
Nv. DITTEMORE CHARGES
Christian Science Publishing
Society Trustees Are Scored
in Answer Filed.
By the Associated Press.

| By the Associated Press.
| BOSTON, April 10.-Charges of dis
loyalty and mismanagement on the
part of the trustees of the Christian
Science Publishing Society are made
in a separate answer filed in the
supreme court by John V. Ditte-
more, one of the defendants to the
suit brought by the trustees last
lmonth to restrain the directors Of the
First Churci, Of Christ, Scientist, from
interfering with their management of
the society.
The answer declares that the man
ual or bylaws of the Christian Sci
ence Church as administered by the
board of directors constitutes the su-
preme authority over all departments of
Christian Science activities, including
the publishing society.
Charges are made in the answer
that the circulation OF the Monitor
has been misreprssented and that it's
management has been extravagant,
especially in its foreign service.
1t cites payments of large sums for
cable news, amounting to S21, 900 in
been largely rewritten from London
daily papers.
The admission is made that there
has been an increase in the income of
the publishing society from the sale
of certain periodicals. but it is as
serted that this was due to the fact
that prices had been increased in some
instances so per cent and in other in
stances 100 per cent. and that this
burden had been borne by the sub
iScriberS, who are almost all members
of the First Church of Christ, Sci

TEACHING GREEKS HOW
TO AID THEIR DISABLED
Americans Making Artificial
Limbs in Workshop Taken Over
by Red Cross Mission.

Modern Greeks will soon be shaping
portions OF the human body that, al
far as artistic merit are concerned
would probably make Phidias or
Praxiteles writhe in his grave. What
ever they may lack in beauty, how
ever. they will make up in usefulness,
for the parts in question are artificial
limbs for Greek soldiers crippled in
the war.
Americans are now making these
limbs and are teaching the Greeks
the trick. A workshop has been
taken over by the American Red Cross
mission to Greece, and eventually the
Greek werkmen being instructed
therein will man the plant.
The artificial legs will be fitted
and given to Greek soldiers without
cost Until lately hundreds of dis
abled Greek fighters got along as
best they could with crude peg-legs
and cumbersome twenty-pound arti-
fetal limbs, and their Joy At receiving
a workable four-pound artificial leg
knows ne bounds. Already the work
is extending, through the ordering
of machinery and tools, so that soon
approved types of artificial arms will
be supplied those who have suffered
the loss of that member.
The same mission to Greece also is
aiding a educational school, where
mutilated soldiers are the pupils, ac-
eoFding to announcement from Red
Cross national headquarters here.

of the governments of America and
France to provide free tuition to a

"The scheme of both governments"
Corp. Townshend declares. "is to pro-
mote a friendly intercourse between
the educated young men of the two
countries. We are studying French
history, art, commerce and geography
SO that we may come to a true UNDER
standing of what the real French
people here are, and. by so doing. we
will be able to Offset the somewhat
hostile opinion the A. E. F. is going to

The American students at this par

better opportunity of learning the
