After serving as head of the Phoe- nix branch of the Salvation Army for two termI four years, Commander and Mrs John J. Shearer have been transferred to be head of the Salt Lake City division.
 Tonight at o'clock, at the City Hall plaza, Commander Shearer will conduct his farewell service in Phoe- nix. A record crowd is anticipated, as he has done much to popularize the army and it's work here by his untiring erergy and conscientious attention to the multitude of calls upon the labor and charity of his organization.
 The work of the Shearers has been so satisfactory to the city and to the general headquarters of the army that they have been kept here four years, which is twice as long as the com manders are generally kept in one city, and are now being sent to a larger field.
 The work of the army in Phoenix for the past four years while largely un- known to the general public. has been just as efficient and resultful as the more spectacular work of the army behind the trenches in France. Through the active support given the army here by the citizens, by their liberal dona- tions of a machine, clothing and SUD- plies of all kinds, and funds, Con- mander Shearer and his assistants have been able to answer every request for service and assistance to the un- fortunate and poor of the city.
 Whether the need was for a meal. g suit of clothes, a bed an order of gro ceries, nursing, the moving of z family too poor to pay for drayage, ol for spiritual care and advice to those ir trouble, the Salvation Army has met the demand.
 But preaching the Gospel to the poor is the greatest work of the Sal vation Army" said Commander Shear CT, and in this we have been more than successful, bringing many hun dreds td see the light that might other wise never have realized the benefits of treading the straight and marrow path. The converts have been mum bered by the hundreds, and the per- sonnel of the local soldiership has beer more than doubled. A number O young men and women have been sen

ORIGINATOR IF PIMA
 COTTON TO ATTEND
 BIG TOUR TUESDAY

Dr. T. Fl. Kearney of the United States department of agriculture, orig inator of both Pima and Yuma varie- ties of American Egyptian cotton, has promised to be present during the cot ton tour of the valley 10 be held under the auspices of the county agricultural agents office next Tuesday, it was announced yesterday. Dr. Kearney was the first of the government men 10 un- dertake the adaptation of the Egyptian type of cotton to southwestern cOndi- tions
 The story of the long years of ef- forts in this line before the cotton in dustry had assumed it's present pro- portions in this valley IS more or less familiar to all Most growers fail to realize however, the efforts being put forth at present by Dr. Kearney and his colleagues to protect the industry they have established and to insure steady supply of the best seed Dr. Keaney is now in the valley person ally selecting fields for seed production and carefully rosueing these fields in order that all off-type plants may be removed.
 x. Fl. Hastings, superintendent of the gover ment experiment farm at Saca- ton, will also be on hand for the biz cotton tour planned for next Tuesday MT. Hastings is quite well known in the valley, as he has spent several years on the Sacaton farm and is known as one of the greatest authori- ties on American Egyptian cotton in the country. He has developed some very interesting methods Of growth of this type of cotton and has made some nhannu1nraa1 ia1G !, two bales per acre
 Hastings spacing method will prove particularly interesting to local growers, since enormous yields are produced on plants that are easy to handle and that do not grow large enough to materially sap the ferti,ftv Of the soil. Hastings is convinced that the average yield of cotton n the Salt River valley can be increased by so per cent without increasing costs of production when growers realize the necessity of correct irrigation and get the proper type of plant fixed in mind.
 Both Dr. Kearney and Nr Hastings will be glad to answer any questions that might arise in the min ds f those going on the tour. Opportunity will be had at some time during the day for personal talks with these gentlemen and short talks will be given by each in some of the fields visited.
 ALI cotton growers going on the tour will meet at the county agri- cultural agents office. room s Central School building at o'clock Tuesday morning. While those attending will be expected to furnish their own trans portation, it is likely that considerable room will be available for those who wish to go but do not have cars. Fields visited will include those on which tests of various fertilizers, inter- cropped cowpeas and different meth eds of spacing and irrigation are be- HHg conducted. For the benefit of those who may be late or who may come from the Scottsdale and south side districts, it is announced that the first field to be visited is on the farm of Walter P. Smith on the western edge of Scottsdale.

AUSTRIA WORRIED
 BY ART TREASURES Italian Claims Will Ruin Some of Finest Collec-
 tiOns If Allowed

Vienna. May 19.-Italian claims to own ership and restoration to Italy of paint ings and jewels in the Vienna art collec- ton seem to be disturbing the Vennese quite as much as any other probable clause of the peace treaty of St. Ger main.
 It is understood that promises have been made by the Austrian delegates to the peace conference that the collection shall be left intact and the claims of Czechs and ,Jugo- o-Slavs not granted. This position is Said to have been taken art ly because if the principle of restitution were once allowed 1t would apply also to American and English collections. the origins of which<are shadowy, especially the Greek treasures in London.
 As some Italian claims to paintings are based on the treaty between Italy and Austria of 1866, it is stated that Aus tria will demand payment of two billion lira unpaid by the Italians, although owed under that treaty. It is said also that \ Italy would welcome any honest readjust- Nment of collections of sculptures and paintings, wherever owned, and that Greece also favors this attitude
 Some of Italy's present claims date back to the middle ages or earlier, as in the case, of the so-called crown of Charlemagne made by Italian goldsmiths also the imperial cape made by Saracens for the Norman kings of Sicily, and Gel mrs golden Saltcellar designed for Car dinal Medici. but cast for Francis the First, and later given by Charles the Ninth of France to Ferdinand of Tyrol \ as wedding present. Its present value \has been estimated at possibly one mil lIion dollars.
 Claim is laid to the Este collection of Egyptian and Roman antiquities, musical instruments, marbles and bronzes which the Emperor of Austria inherited from the Duke of Modena. This collection was brought here from Cataro, near Padua, 25 years ago, but has not yet been exhib- tied to the public although museum is now being arranged for it in the new Hofburg palace.
 Fhe most important single object of this collection is Cupid Discharging an Ar row. by Donatello, cupid being consid- cred by many the most lovely child ever modelled. This work was cast in the

GERMANS ALREADY
 INVADING SERBIA
Selling of Goods Is Object of Present Great Influx
 Into Belgrade

Belgrade, May 1o.-By Man)-The Ger man and Austrian peaceful infiltration or Serbia has begun. The hotels of this city harbor guests whose identity is revealed by their heavy Teutonic cast of features. They talk in German and laugh loudly over their beer. Indeed, if one does not speak German in Belgrade one sometimes finds himself misunderstood. The walters do not know iEnglish or French in the majority of cases.
 My friends in Basle told me [ would be mobbed in Belgrade if I spoke Ger man there,' declared a self-styled Swiss salesman. However, I found that when spoke Italian I was treated with dis respect, that when l spoke French I was ignored, and that when I spoke Eng glish l was smilingly but politely told, in German, that I could be best served by speaking the tongue I know best"
 Serbia from one end of the country to the other has been flooded with cheap Austrian and German goods. How they got in one cannot learn, but every shop window in the villages from Uskub to Semendria contains cheap mirrors, toilet articles, knives and gimcracks of every description made in Austria" Many of the articles are backed with colored pie lures under celluloid of the former Aus trian and German Emperors in all their regalia. There sems to be little preju-
 
 among the peasants and village dwellers of Serbia
 The Serbian hates the Bulgarian as venomously as ever but he does not sing a morning hymn of hate against Ger many or Austria. The country is flood ed with pictures of atrocities committed by Bulgarians upon Serbians. The for mer Emperor Charles picture still adorns the local police headquarters.
 In Belgrade there is bitterness against the Austrians, especially among the bet ter class of people, whose homes were systematically despoiled by Austrian of f1cers who shipped 50 trains of household goods from Belgrade across the Danube into Austria Each train was composed of approximately 90 cars Three hun dred pianos were included in the loot Belgrade and northern Serbia are flooded with the Appreciated Austrian currency In fact, there apparently is more Aus trian money in circulation than Serbian The American Red Cross employs a number of German prisoners in trans porting it's supplies. They are better clothed than many Serb soldiers and go about the streets laughing and joking and in general quite at home.
 | The American Red Cnoss has for its warehouse the Palace hotel which, just finished before the war, was intended to be the best hotel in Belgrade. When the Austrians entered the town, how ever they deliberately smashed the plate glass mirrors, marble wainscotng and stabled their horses in the drawing room and dining saloon. The woodwork was torn out for firewood and the ma hogany furniture wantonly hacked with axes.

Italian Scientist Has
New Cravitation Law
Professor Maiorana Says Tests
Will Upset Newton's Ideas
and Change Solar Phvics

ROME, Oct 27.-Newton's theory of
gravitation has been attacked by Pro
fessor Maiorana, who. speaking before
gathering of prominent scientists
here, declared the results of expert
ments he has performed upset the
hitherto accepted laws of physics gov
erning the motions of celestial bodies
Newton's theory, while hitherto con-
sidered absolute, is only an approx
mate hypothesis, according to Pro-
fessor Maiorana, who supports this as
sertion by showing that ball of lead
floating in mercury becomes slightly
lighter.
From this the professor deduces that
bodies have both a true and an appar-
ent mass, the true mass OF the sun be-
ing double the apparent mass; that the
stars attract other bodies with forces
entirely different from those thus far
Of stars is generated by the force of
gravitation emanating from interior
strata.
From this. he argues, the solar sys-
tenn has had an immensely longer life
than has been believed by scientists up
to the present.
His last conclusion Is that the evolu-
tion of the world has been closely
linked to the phenomenon which he has
discovered
Professor Maiorana explains by this
means the fact that all stars are more
or less luminous and claims that his
theory Will bring about a revolution in
astro- physical science

BRIGHTON, England. Oct. o-.-Lieu-
tenant Colonel John Cyril Porte, for
mer wing commander of the Royal
Navy Air Service, is dead here of tu-
berculosis.
Lieutenant Porte came to this coun-
try in February, 1914. to cooperate
with Glenn II. Curtiss in the construc-
ton and navigation of the huge air
plane America, which Rodman Wana-
maker purposed to send in A transat-
lantic flight. He returned to England
IN March, but came back in April with
his young wife, announcing his inten-
ton of remaining here until he could
go across in the airship. He planned
to go from Newfoundland by way of
the Azores and Spain. The vessel was
| built at Hammondsport, n. y. and was
completed by June 20. Two davs later
1t was launched on Keuka Lake, and in
trials it more than fulfilled expecta-
tons. Delays arose, and at the begin
nlng OF August 1t was announced that
Lieutenant Porte was returning to
England for army service. and that the
flight across the Atlantic would be
postponed until after the war A little
later the America was purchased by
the Dfltlsh government and taken over
on steamship. and with it Porte did
noteworthy service over the North Sea.
In the summer of 1915 Porte visited
this country in the interest of the
British aviation service. In July. 1917.
charges of conspiracy and graft were
preferred against him in England. but
the government soon withdrew its case
and fully eXonera+ed him. He was at
that time suffering from serious lung
troubles.
In May last he went to Newfound-
land to compete in the transatlantic
race for the prize of $4,000 offered by
The Daily Mail" of London, but was
recalled by the British Admiralty. He
was the Inventor of the eype Of air
plane known as the "Feiixst0wc Fury. ''
The largest aircraft of that type. and
indeed the largest alrplane OF any type
ever built, was about TO start from
England for Capetown, South Africa,
on August II last, when on trial
flight off Felixstowe it sideslipped and
fell into the sea. The wireless opera
tor was drowned, but the other six pas
sengers were rescued.
