Solar System Out of Order; Moon
 Running Wild

SWARTHMORE, Pa, Dec. 3O.- (By The Associated Press. )-Some- thing is wrong with the solar sys- tenn, Dr. Ernest w. Brown, head or the mathematics department Of Yale University, told members or the American Astronomical Society in session today at Swarthmore College. Either the earth's rate Of rotation is slowing down, or the moon is moving faster. This con- clusion was reached by Prof. Brown when he observed that the days are becoming longer.
 This fact, long suspected and now verified beyond reasonable doubt. the Yale mathematician de- clared. need not be taken into ac- count in the daily life of laymen be- cause it amounts to less than one thousandth of a second year. He said that he had spent number of years mapping the course of the moon for several hundred years and had compiled a table of the moon s orbit. But, apparently, the moon was not following the schedule and he threw his mass of investigations into the wastebasket.

Yellow River, Again Breaking Banks, Submerges Area of
 10000 Square Miles

NEW YORK, Dec. 30.-New floods sweeping over vast sections of China and followed by famine, have killed thousands and left hundreds of thou sands starving.
 This was the message received to- day by the Episcopal department of missions from Rev. Edmund J. Lee, secretary of the international famine relief committee at Ahnwei
 The Yellow river, which last Aug ust overflowed its banks, flooding a large part of the province of Shan tung.- again has risen, this time coy ering great tracts in Shantung, Kiang SUI and Ahnwei, and finding a new outlet to the sea.
 50 suddenly did the flood come that great numbers were unable to escape wrote the clergyman. Whole villages were swept away and thousands were drowned.
 "In Ahnwei province, the Red river burst it's banks and has become one great inland sea. Large parts of thirteen counties are submerged. the flooded area comprising about 10,Oot square miles,"
 Other reports received at Episco pal headquarters indicated that sev eral lakes had been formed over enoI nous tracts formerly under cuItiva tion and that it was impossible tt drain many sections. This would | can that the dispossessed would b' unable to return to their ruined vii lages and w&ld be dependent oi famine relief the rest of the winter
 An international famine relief so ciety has been organized in Anking including the governor, military gov 1 ernor and Bishop Huntington.

Witnesses Unable to Attend Probe Into Disappearance
 of Dallas Motorist

PHOENIX, Ariz., Dec. 30-The in quest over the skull and partially charred bones found on November 23 in an arroyo 12 miles from Buckeye on the Hassayampa river, and tenta- lively identified as those or John J. Knight, wealthy Dallas, Texas, busl- ness man, missing since July last, has been postponed by Coroner Park R. Mitten, of Buckeye, from tomorrow until next Tuesday morning, on ac- count of the inability of several ma terial witnesses to be present tomor- row.
 Following the finding of the bones buried in shallow grave, eight per sons were arrested on a, Charge os murder in connection with the disap- pearance of Knight, but the charges were dismissed shortly afterward, on grounds of lack of evidence to con vict. The failure of the relatives of Knight, in Texas, to send chart of his teeth, officers said, made it im- possible to identify positively the bones as those of Knight. The body had been stripped before being placed in the grave. and apparently was turned with an acetyfene :orcn. hole in the skull, apparently made by a hammer, indicated the manner ip which the man met his death.
 Knight, who was enroute to Los Angeles from Texas, was last seen III Buckeye on the night of July g, whe" he ate supper in a restaurant there His automobile was round stalled IT the sand several days later on an un used road about 14 miles from Buck eye, and the entire deser, surround ! ing the car was searched for his body 1 The bones were found about three

AGAIN EXPLAINS
 WHY PRESIDENT
 LIBERATED DEBS
Daugherty in Long Statement Admits Guilt of Socialist
 in Violating War Laws TELLS ACT OF GRACE Attorney General Says Debs Gratitude For Freedom to
 Be Shown by Conduct

WASHINGTON, Dec. 30.- Eugene V. Debs, the Socialist leader, was granted his freedom from the Atlanta federal penitentiary on Christmas by President Harding solely as "an act of grace;" his violation of the war laws remain unforgiven by the government. This was disclosed to- night by Attorney General Daugherty who made public the text of his rec concentrations to the president in the Debs case.
 'It will be observed" Daugherty said, "that a pardon was not granted Debs. but that his sentence was com muted. The action of the president in no wise condones the offense and the relief was solely an act of grace; The gratitude of Debs will be meas ured by his conduct in the future"
 The administration theory Of ac- tion in the Debs case, according to Daugherty, is to be considered as the government policy in relation to oth- CTS imprisoned for violation or the war laws, of which class of offenders probably no better case could be se- lected," he declared, than that of Debs."
 Sincere Beliefs Shown
 "Regarding this class of so-called political prisoners as they are term ed by those who are demanding their release" Daugherty said, there is nc real reason why they should be treat ed any differently than any other per sons who violate the law aside from the fact that many of them, as well as their friends and associates on the outside, actually believe and are sin cere in their belief, that they have violated no just law and were strictly within their constitutional rights 1T their utterances which have beer found to be in violation of the espi onage act.
 "Of course, there are others among them who were and are actively, con sciously disloyal to our government and who contemplate and intend tt disrupt and overthrow our presen form of government whenever oppor tunity presents itself, and are work ing to that end. AS for them, noth 1, ing need be said. They are past req son and the only argument they cal understand is the heavy arm of tn law. They have been justly and wis ly convicted and must suffer the pen alty of their misdeeds."

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 30.-Rebuttai testimony was started today in the trial of Arthur C. Burch on the charge of having murdered J. Relton Ken nedy, the prosecution first attacking the defense of insanity. Three wit nesses had been examined when court adjourned until Tuesday morning.

 He said he asked Burch to relate his actions on the day in question ano Burch safd he would do so if Mrs Obenchain wished and would send hin a note to that effect in her own writ ing. Dr. Moore said the note was sent, but Burch declared he had changed his mind.
 Dr. Moore said he thought he still had the note at his home, and if he could find it, would produce it later.
