ever, by machine gun and rifle fire.
Prince George has joined his father
King Constantine, here and they are
living in private Turkish villas out
side the town He had planned to

SUCCEED IN ATTEMPT
TO MAKE GUARDSMEN
ARMY reinforcement
(Ry Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16.-Substan-
tial progress is being made by the
army general staff acting in co-opera-
tion with the states executives in
developing the national guard along
lines of the new organic law, designed
by congress to make that body the
first reinforcement of the regular army
in time of war.
The department up to Sept. I, had
reorganized and given federal recog-
milton to National Guard units ag-
gregating $4,000 men, an increase of
$4,000, approximately since January l..
The authorized strength also has been
increased in the same period from
20S,155 to 225,000.
The national guard divisional units,
or their substitute units. which par
ticipated in the war have been recon
stituted and three additional divisions
have been organized.
Basic Plan.
The basic plan for recognizing the
guard, adopted by the general staff
provides for the creation of Is divis-
ions and a small proportion of corps
and army troops, so that when COM
bined with the regular army, both will
be able to furnish on mobilization es-
sential combat elements of three field
armies.
The organization OF these Is divis-
ions was reported recently as averag-
ing Sc per cent of completion. The
9th was nearest the top with 80
per cent and the S6th the most back
ward in reorganizing its units with
% per cent.
While the procuring of National
Guard officers is left largely in the
hands OF the states in peace time, the
war department keeps check on COM
missioned personnel In the last six
months 1856 officers have been given
federal recognition, bringing the total
to SIPS.

WILL REBUFF SMOOT
(Ry Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16.-Revision

pleted today by the senate finance

approximately $1o0,000,000 more this

ed under the bill as passed by the

Pending changes included the treat
ment of personal service corporations
and a reduction of the rate in the in
come tax brackets. Important admin

manufacturers tax on finished arti-

ed through the changes thus far
agreed upon. but roughly it was esti
mated that for this fiscal year the bill
would yield nearly $3,450, 900, 900, OF

ED IN OTHER CITIES.

In report read and discussed by
the Child Welfare Department of the
Cleveland Federation of Women's
Club, r. G.. Jones, Superintendent OF
Schools of that city, says immortality
is the greatest menace of the public
schools today; that we are fast drift
ing toward free love in this country;
that the mothers of the nation are not
doing their duty, and that dancing in
Cleveland schools will be barred en-
tirely unless it is conducted as a
wholesome pleasure and entertain
ment for school pupils.
Indifference on the part of par
ents toward the activities of their
children is one of the greatest prob
lens in immortality" Mr.. Jones's re,
port continued. 1T is up to the wom
en- and mothers to set higher stand
ards of morality and home life. I'm
less there is greater feeling foi
morality, / fear the community and
nation will drift toward free love-.
The situation in rCleveland's higI
schools, Superintendent Jones assert
ed, was. particularly aggravated b,
extreme dressing of many girls, b,
might riding in automobiles and b!
immodest dancing at school parties.

FRANCE AND VATICAN
UNLIKELY THAT RELATIONS
WITH HOLY SEE WILL BE RE-
sUMED BEFORE AUTUMN.

The resumption of diplomatic rela-
tions between France. and the Holy
See has been held up, as had been ex-
pected, by the action of the Senate,
which has decided to postpone con-
sideration of the bill until the budget
has been disposed of. This probably
means delay until the Autumn.
The French Premier appeared be-
fore the Foreign Affairs Commission
of the Senate to urge the early con
sideration of the Vatican bill, and
pointed out that France is greatly
hampered, in comparison with other
nations, by not having her official Am.
bassador at the Vatican. "The mis-
fortune is" Premier BRAND said
"that such question, which ought to
be dealt with apart from all contro
versy, should not be settled at once
1t ought not to be allowed to fall into
the domain of party politics. A rapid
solution is, then, highly desirable"
M. Marrand, the Minister of the
Interior, and a large number of Sena
tors are opposed to the measure, ant
may succeed in preventing it's adop
ton, although the Government il
pledged to resume relations with the
Holy See.
