CARDIFF, Wales, Aug. IA (by Asso- ciated Press) Again British clergy man has put his foot down against the prevailing fashions in women's dress and refused to give communion to all women who kneel at the altar rail in attair which he may regard as immodest.
 Father Joseph Parlin, celebrating high mass at Saint Paul Roman Cath olic church here, issued the following warning to his congregation: "I hope" " he said, "that lady members of my parish will not attempt to attire themselves in some of the present day fashions. If any immodestly dressed woman approaches the altar for Holy Communion I shall refuse to allow her to partake of the Sacrament, pass ing her by as if she did not exist"

INDUSTRIESOF BELGIUM BACK
 TO NORMAL

BRUSSELS, Aug. IA (by Associated ss).-Belgian coal miners have al most reached pre-war production. The output of the Belgian mines for the month of May 1920 reached 90.9 per cent of the production for May, 1913, amounting to 1,737,O tons as com pared with 1,91O,71O for the same per iod before the war.
 What is more remarkable still pro- duction for the Mons coal fields, taken alone, was even greater during May than during the same month before the war, the percentage being 104.3.
 Further illustrating the wonderful progress toward reconstruction which Belgium has made, Director-General of Telegraphs and Telephones Rossen points out that 2S2 central telephone offices out of 2S3 have been re-estab. lished and 80 per cent of the pre-War subscribers have been regained.
 At Antwerp, Malines and Turnhout, more telephone subscribers are report ed than before the war. The scarcity os materials has prevented even great e" results in reconstruction. Wires were hard to obtain, the Germans hay ing carried awav most Gf the wiring throughout Belgium. Installations in Enls>els were carried to Berlin where they were located by allied officers aod two engineers have been sent to re..uver what materials they can ident' ify. The Germans carried away over J4Os,G worth of telephone and tele. graph materials from Brussels and SIP zoo ,OOO from belgium as wholo.

ton Of a baby, believed to be that OF
Blakely Coughlin, in an abandoned
quarry at Swedeland.
The Coughlin family, at Norristown

1t was said he was away on busines,
for the day. The deputy superin
tendent said that no reports had beer
made to the Harrisburg office of tn,
finding of body. Coroner Neville, Of
Montgomery county, denied that an,
report had been made to him that
body had been found at Swedeland.
Captain Gearhart. of the state police
does not believe, 1t is said. that Blake
ly's body has been recovered.
Gearhart today accompanied Majo
G. Townley Larzelere, counsel for tn
Coughlin family, and Mr.. Coughlin {,
Philadelphia to attach $275 of Pas
quale's money deposited in the Yves
End >Trust Co.
Later they plan to go to Egg Harbor
n. j., to attach another S240O in tn
Egg Harbor Bank, and will also file sui
to obtain S170O which the kidnappe
paid on the farm he bought at New
Gretna, n. J. Last week Captain
Gearhart recovered S340O. the balanc
Of an account opened by Pasquale wit
a New York bank.
