in London on a double mission. one Of

The other purpose is in connection
with a scheme for the reclamation OF
the Agrum Romanum, an extensive,
barren tract lying between Rome and
the Mediterranean. In this scheme he
has the support of one American and
two English banks
Prince Orsini told THE New YORK
HERALD correspond ent here that the
Vatican felt that owing to the worlds
economic depression, all countries should
do their utmost toward cultivating their
territories which are now waste. He
said the Vatican had induced some
landed proprietors to form "a company

between Rome and the Mediterranean,

hundreds OF years has been n pesti-
lential. malarial district. comprising So
600 acres. II is estimated that the cost
of the reclamation work will be $780,
0O0. 600, and that IL will take six years
to complete II. However, " II is done,
he said. the land would be Of inestimable
value to Rome and would make the
city self-supporting and bring back to
the capital OF the Caesars something OF
its old time glory.
The chief town in the area is Ostia,
which In y. c. 20 was one of the prin-
cipal cities of Italy. but in the first
century of the Christian era deposits
from the Tiber gradually silted up the
port and caused the ruin OF the city
at the rivers mouth. Previous to the
outbreak OF the world war excavations
at Ostia revealed enormous granaries
which proved the richness Of the soil
there.
II is now planned. the Prince said. &c
build another city near Ostia. which
is twenty-five kilometers southwest OF
Rome. to relieve the housing conges'
ton in Rome itself. and TO build port
there which will make Rome n mari
time city. The engineering charges are
TO be borne in connection with the
reclamation work in the Pontint
marshes.
The Pope is interested in the scheme
because Il would carry out the plans
OF some of his predecessors and DC

London. Feb. 3.
Hundreds of American army officers
who were stationed in or passed through
London during the war will regret to
hear that the Washington Inn, in the
central area of st. James square, has
been closed and is to be torn down so
as to restore the square to its original
condition.
Washington Inn was a favorite hos
telry for American officers because it
offered them a touch OF home due largely
to the efforts OF British and American
girls who conducted the place and even
waited at table. To many the time spent
at Washington Inn left one OF the most
pleasant memories OF the war
Among the matrous who were patron
esses of the inn were number OF Amer
lean women who married men of the
British nobilty--Arrs. John Astor. now
Lady Ribblesdale: Lady Deerhurst Ala
stair Innes-I<er and the Hon. Mrs. John
Ward
Since last June the Washington Inn
has been used by the Officers Associa-
ton to accommodate cx-scrvicc officers
who came to London looking for EN-
ployment. For that reason and the linn
ted housing facilities that exist in Lon
don it was urged that the Inn be al
lowed TO stand for "a while yet. but the
trustees Lord Astor, Lord STAFFORD.
Lord Kinnaird and the Bishop of Lon
don. representing the inhabitants of the
square. despite the fact that many prom
inent persons supported the plea, decided
that the Inn must be torn down.
Last June. when the International
Y. NJ. c. A. discontinued the use of the
Inn as a hotel for American officers, il
turned the place over TO the officers AS
ISOLATION with the understanding that
the place was to be vacated at the
end of the year and the buildings re-
moved. To this the trustees agreed, and
they refuse to postpone longer the re-
moval Of the structure.

agreed to buy the first few cans Of
gasolene for it and also to introduce
the man to an italian dealer who prob
ably would take the motor car Off his
hands.
Unfortunately for the Able. the po-
lice trailed the automobile, and after
returning 1t to its rightful owner
rounded up the band with the Able
while they were celebrating what
seemed to have been a profitable
transaction.
The Abbe's fearful assurance that
he had not wandered from his re-
ligious paths almost convinced the
court of his innocence, but one of the
bandits who had admitted he had
never wanted TO let the priest into
the scheme dropped a hint that the
Abbe's confessional experiences might
not bear an investigation. The Able
thought otherwise, but to avoid too
searching an inquiry admitted he was
the father of one child. to whom he
had given his name, and that he
shared his priestly earnings with this
child's mother.
With this doubt cast on tho pris-
oner's moral actions the court decided
to hold open the case.

To an observer who knows something
about art, but not a great deal about
the new art" at least not in the way
that its creators would like to have II
understood, It seems that the exhibit in

beginning to get used to 1t. but it does
seem that the subject matter has been
given a less hectic treatment than OF
yore.
There is, for example, Minda Buchan-
ans conception Of New York, which
shows green skyscrapers, purple streets
and yellow skies and seems to be hung
