Great Petroleum Deposits
Believed Near Vesuvius

From a Special Correspondent
MILAN, April l5-The active search
made for petroleum by orders of the
Italian government gave some astound-
ing results in the vicinity of Rome dur
ing the last few weeks. Now there is
speculation that if similar borincs
we're conducted in the direction Of Ma
pies great petroleum deposits might DC
discovered in the zone of Vesuvius
This idea has long been favoritc
one of scientific speculation. 1t ALWAYS
was supposed that coal and oil deposits
must exist somewhere in the Cam
ragnia and near Volcanoes.
Within the last six months numerous
borings have been made, and the frs
satisfactory results were achieved when
several wells gave from 1000 to 1000
gallons day. But they all dried IN.
Until Inally one was struck 1000 feet
below the surface which now promises
to be continuous. as already it has been
going several weeks and is producjn,

Prince Of Wales, has just gained new
laurels by winning his first steeplechase
race, riding his own favorite horse, Pet
Dog.
Like his grandfather, Edward VII
the prince is lover of all sports and
mas long taken an interest in racing.
he recently won his first race over a
polnt-to-point course, and when he rode
the steeplechase course captured the
Welsh Guards Challenge Cup over two
and a half miles.
There were three starters, Of which,
ret Dog was always an odds-on ia
vorite. The prince finished alone, the
other two riders going down. Pet Dog
jumped the difficult course we'll, and in
handling his mount the prince proved
himself an excellent horseman.
The King, the Queen, the Duke Of
York and Princess Mary were present
at the race, and were as obviously de-
lighted as was the large crowd present

Parlor as Essential Adjunct
OF Home an Issue in London
From The Tribune's E,tropean :

From The Tribune's European Bureau
LONDON, April 16.--The building Of
community homes for workingmen-
undertaken by the government to re-
lieve the housing shortage-has caused
controversy regarding whether the
parlor is an essential adjunct of the
modern household. One school holds
that it is superfiuous. Another con-
tends that the parlor is vitality neces
sary as "courting room" when the
daughters of the family arrive at mar
riageab!e age.
recent editorial in morning paper
says:
"Othcr nations have homes of dis
tinctive and surprising qualities, but
from China to Peru there is nothing to
be found quite like our parlors. This,
indeed, has long been admitted. but the
fact does not give universal satisfac-
ton. 1t is, some tell US, an apartment
only fit for funeral baked meats: it is

and utility. Yet the parlor is found
necessary to the course Of true love
In the publicity OF a family living room
it is not possible to WOO or to be wooe3
with any comfort or satisfaction. With
out the shade of an aspidistra, the
glow of waxen fruits, or at least the
romantic seclusion Of paror, heart
cannot commune with heart. There is
plainly no more to be said. The Brit
ish Empire is built upon the British
parlor."
Latest reports from the National
Housing and Town Planning Council
indicate that the parlor will survive.

NJ problem play. "a Bill OF

ence Dane, just produced here, have on
the campaign for better and more
enient divorce laws in England?
Since 1909 English women have been
divorce. The present laws are obso-
ete, difficult and impracticable. BY
making it more difficult for woman to
get divorce than for man to do SO
they admit of double standard of
morality. People who because of in
compatibility OF temperament desire
divorce are forced 10 manufacture
evidence against themselves and face
me marriage bonds.
Yet, despite this fact, the annual
total of divorces in England has in
creased 500 per cent in the last four
years. Some say that it is due to the
war. Some say that it is due to the
increasingly active part that women
take in business and affairs outside the
home. The fact remains that divorces
and the demand for easier divorce laws
has become nation wide
1t is partly because of this that "a
Bill Of enforcement" has gripped Lon

emotion that was felt in can English

masterful treatment of the divorce
question, handling particularly the sim

Most Powerful Drama
OF Year, Critics Declare
Almost 10000 of the 100000 insane
persons In the United States are mar
ried, and under the present law neither
the husband nor the wife Of an insane
person can obtain relief in the courts.
This problem is wildly dealt with by
Miss Dane in her play. Critics COM
ment on the fact that "a Bill of Di-
vorcement"-universally spoken of as
the most powerful drama Of the year
is written by a woman. Miss Dane is a
young actress and is also novelist
This is her first play. She has not an
swered the question of whether divorce
laws should be made more lenient, but
has merely presented the situation
honestly, forcibly and graphically
The action Of the play takes place
in 1882, after the passing of freer d.
vorce laws. when it. is possible for a
married person to obtain a decree on
the grounds Of insanity. With the ris-
ing Of the curtain the audience is faced
with the grim tragedy Of husband
who escapes from an asylum after six
teen years imprisonment and returns
to his home, apparently cured Of she'll
shock, the cause Of hts detention. He
retains, however, the faint Of heredi-
tary insanity. From this point the
presentation Of the story has about it
the thrill Of Greek drama, the slow
moving circle of events that must end
in disaster.
The mans wife has divorced him a
year previously, and is about to marry
