WANTS REAL SEAPORT
 ON AEGEAN SEA

Sofia Bulgaria, June 15-Bu1garia must have a territorial outlet on the Aegean Sea, Ivan E.. Guesho off, one of Bu1garia's most brilliant statesmen and formerly Prime Minister. now a Deputy of Parliament, has told The Associated Press correspondent "A mere economic outlet will be of no use to her and she has catergorical1y re- fused and will refuse, to accept it," he went on. "A glance at the map of the Balkan Peninsula will prove that a port of the Aegean is a matter of far more vital importance to Bulgaria than Plume is to Jugo-Slavia
 We know" continued M Gueshoff, that on the question of ethnic and territorial claims of Bulgaria, the United States was overruled at the Peace Conference. We are neverthe- less genuinely grateful to all those Americans who, in the commissions appointed to study the questions of Thrace and the northern and western frontiers of Bulgaria. gave conclu- sions in our favor. We now implore the generous help of the great Ameri- can people in the solution of a ques- tion fraught with momentous conse- quences to Bulgaria and to the peace of the whole Balkan Peninsula"

GRASSHOPPERS
 CREATE HAVOC

Fort Worth Texas, June 15.-Acres upon acres in some West Texas counties are ping eaten bare by q new plague of grasshoppers that Hooked down in May from the Middle West like clouds, according to reports reaching Fort Worth.
 The invasion has become so serious that concerted action to meet it is being taken by agricultural agents. Fields of wheat, they said, have been devastated in many parts of the Pan handle. Cattle ranges. according to official reports to headquarters of the Cattle Raisers' Association at Fort Worth, have been denuded. At the offices of the Texas Farmers Union here, it was stated that the plague may result in total destruction of plant life in some localities.

CHILD WELFARE
 TAKEN UP IN SEVERAL STATES

Hartford, June 15-As a result of trip through the Middle West, Prof. H. P. Fairchild, executive secretary of the Connecticut Child Welfare Commission, has obtained informa- ton in regard to the work being doQs among the children, which will be of benefit in the Investigations which are. now being conducted by the Connecticut Commission. in pre- paration for recommend dations which will be submitted to the legislature at it's session in 1921.
 Nebraska and Ohio have had child welfare commissions, explained the executive secretary, and Illinois has just had a state organization which is particularly interesting in view of the work of the Civil Code Commis- sion in this state: =
 In Lincoln, Professor. Fairchild con- ferred with c. E. Prevey, secretary of the Children's Code Commission, and with Judge Lincoln Frost, who was for many years judge of the juvenile court there.
 The representative of the Connecti- cut commission talked with number of social workers in Chicago, and at tended a child welfare conference under the auspices of the state de- partm ent or publ1c welfare In Co- lumbus, he conferred with the secre- tary of the Board of State Charities, spending some time, also, at the State Bureau of Juvenile Research, of which H. H. Goddard is director. This is a progressive institution which makes careful study of defective children in the state.
 "In general said Professor Fair child, 'I found a very keen interest in child welfare problems in these states. I found that their problems are similar to those in Connecticut. In some respects they have progress ed further than we, and in other re- spects we have shown the greatest progress
 "One thing that impressed me par ticularly was the importance of local committees to study the question of child welfare and to stimulate inter est on the part of the people of the state. Another thing was the Juvenile court system and probation system in the handling of children's cases. There is also a general agreement as to the desirability of having some central state agency dealing with child welfare questions.

New Haven, June 15-A letter pro testing the dismissal of former Pro hibition Enforcement Agents Hogan. Monahan and Reynolds, who were until recently members of Prohibition Enforcement Chief McAuliffe's staff, was sent yesterday to officials at Washington by United States Marshal Palmer. Accompanying the letter were sent afidavits as to the good character of the three dismissed agents and refuting the evidence which R. T. Sands, investigator from the Internal Revenue department in Washington claims to have obtained here against the trio.
 = The three were dismissed following Sands report, submitted after com plaints had been filed with Chief Me Auliffe that they had been guilty of intoxication and disorder1y conduct in Bridgeport. It developed that the complaint was made by two bartend- CTS, &who according to the agents were guilty of violations of the Vol stead act Chief McAu1iffe, as he is in dut bound to do under the cir cumstances, submitted the complaint to hiss uperior officer, Director Shev- lin in New York, and as a result In- vestigator Sandsw as sent here.

SURVIVED ORDEAL
 OF CRUCIFIXION

Mexico City, June 15.-Dr. Jose di Gabrielle, the Italian religious zea1ot who was crucified by the Indian in habitants of Tequizistlan, Oaxaca, last Good Friday, arrived recently in Mexico City, en route to his home in Pachuca, apparently little the worse physically, but still harboring his beliefs
 Di Gabrielle appeared in Oaxaca early in Lent, proclaiming himself to be the Savior and so worked on the superstitious and ignorant In- dians that they crucified him, using railway spikes to nail him to a rude cross. He was taken down the next day and survived his ordeal, being viewed by thousands on Easter.
 News of the crucifxion reached the capital of the state, Tehuantepec and the governor ordered Di Gabrielle brought there- A great procession followed the cart in which he was transported. Later the mayor of Te- quizist1an, who acted as the Roman centurion and four other principal figures in the crucifixion, were ar rested.

GREAT INTEREST
 IN ALASKA A LAND

Juneau, Alaska, June 15.-Requests for information are being received by the Alaska Bureau of Publicity from capitalists in all parts of the coun try who are interested in pu1pwood timber, mill sites and water power, presumably as a result of the re. cent intimation that the Department of Agriculture is about to propose 30 or 35 year leases to those desirous of engaging in the manufacture of pu1pwood.
 The Tongass national forest, com prising about 15,000,O00 acres, ap- proximately one-sixth of which is heavily timbered and abundantly supplied with mill sites and water, is the subject of many inquiries. Those who have closely observed the awakening of interest in the pulp wood industry in Alaska are of the belief that the elimination of the 'tcash in advance and year to year" system of leasing timber lands will result in the development of d great paper making industry which they are confident, is bound to al tract attention to other natural re. sources of Alaska which have Ions awaited the touch of capital

RIVER
 GRAVEYARD FOR ANCIENT SHIPS

Chicago, June fl There is a graveyard of famous fighting ships in the heart of Chicago's manufacturing district In the Chicago river is as- sembled one of the strangest fleets ever assembled on the Great Lakes.
 The submarine. once the U-97 and one of the brides of Admiral von Tfr- pitz, has little in it's appearance to indicate its war record Of seven allied ships sunk by torpedo and gunf1re and no one knows how many destroy ed by mines. for the U-97 was mine layer, On deck she still boasts a long range naval rife. but below is only a she'll Her main engines and all her principal working parts have been stripped out and shipped to Annapolis, where future officers of the navy will receive their education on machinery donated by the late Imperial German government The U-9Z was surrendered at Scapa Flow after the armistice and was one or five U-boats allotted to the United States She toured the Great Lakes during the Victory Loan drive before coming to her last rest here.
 In this strangely assorted fleet is the Essex, whose ancient wooden hull was designed to break up the slave
 
 tic was built as a yacht for President Lincoln, then renodelled as a naval corvette Her most noted exploit was the vain attempt. In company of the Proteus, to rescue Lieutenant Greelys Arctic exploration party at Discovery Harbor in 1885,
 The Hawk. formerly yacht. was sold by the late Mark Hanna, of Ohio, to the government at the outbreak of the Spanish-American war; She cap tured the Spanish liner Alfonso XIII ofr Havana and brought her prize into port
 The gunboat Wilmette. still in her gray war paint, bears little resem- bance to her formIer self when she was the passenger liner Eastland, which turned over at it's dock in 1915, drowning SIP excursionists- Remod- eled and armed by the navy depart nnent she is now what her officers claim is the finest gunboat in the ser vice and is in use training ship.
 Half a dozen submarine chasers stationed here, all of which saw ser vice overseas during the war, are to be sold, if the government can find purchasers. Two have already been disposed of, one bringing $12,0O0 and the other s20.OOO. They cost the navy department about $9O,0o0 each.
