DR.. NICHOLS QUITS
TECH PRESIDENCY
iIelds to Urging of Physicians
and His Resignation Is
Accepted.

CAMBRIDGE. Mass. Nov. 20. - DR..
Ernest Fox Nichols has resigned the
presidency of the Massachusetts, In
stitute OF Technology and his resigna-
tion has been accepted by the executive
committee o. the corporation.
His decision resulted from the advice
of his physicians that the illness which
followed Immediately upon his inaugura-
ton on June 8 last had resulted in
Certain physical limitations. some Of
them probably permanent" which would
make it unwise fer him to assume the
responsibilities of the position.
DIR. Nichols accepted leave of absence
until January next, when the next
meeting of the corporation will be held
and the action of the executive commit
tee ratified. DR.. Elihu Thomson or
Swampscott, chief consulting engineer
Of the General Electric Company, who
served as acting president after the
death of President Richard c. Mac
Laurin in January, 1920. has again been
appointed to that position.
Il have contended earnestly with my
doctors for lighter judgment" said DR..
Nichols in a speech. Il feel more than
willing to take personal risk. but they
know better than I and they stand firm
IN their conclusions.
THE success of the institute is of such
profound Importance to our national
welfare, to the advancement OF science
and the useful arts, that no insufficient
or inadequate leadership is sufferable.
In the judgment Oh my physicians the
physical disqualifications for the e&igen-
cies of educational administration are
such as need not restrict my activities
in the simpler, untroubled. methodical
life of scientific investigation to which
was bred. 1t is to the research labo-
-atory, therefore, that l ask your leave
to return"
In his reply, Frederick p. Fish chair
man of the executive committee, said the
committee had no alternative except to
accept theresignation. and added:
Il cannot adequately express the deep
regret of the committee that the insti-
tute must lose your services as its presi-
dent. We shall never cease to deplore
that you were not permitted 10 make the
great contribution to the work which
your characer. personality and training
would have assured to it."
Dr. Nichols's plans are indefinite. His
chief concern will be to regain his
physical strength. after which he hopes
to resume certain Investigations in con-
nection with problems of lighting. which
he interrupted to become president of the
institute. Search has already been
begun ny the corporation for his sue
cessor.
From 1909 to 1916 DR.. Nichols was
president of Dartmouth College, resign
ing to accept professorship of physics
t Yale University. He assisted the
Bureau of Ordnance of the Navy De-
partment during the war. Previously he
had served as professor of physics at
Colgate, Dartmouth and Columbia. He
is a native OF Leavenworth Kan, was
graduated from the Kansas Agricultural
College and took his masters and
doctors degrees of science from Cornell.
He also studied at the University of
Berlin and Cambridge University.

Asylum in Indo-China.

Special Cable to THE NEW York HERALD.
Copyright, 1921, by THE New York HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau.
Paris, Nov. 20.
Confirmation has been received here
of reports of the death at Saigon. capital
OF French Cochin China, of the unfor-
tunatS Prince Myngoon. who was long
described as a victim of British i'm
perialism.
Heir to large estates in Burma, the
English chased him out of that country
and when he returned there they i'm
prisoned him. More than a hundred
attempts by him to escape failed but
he finally managed to reach Indo-China,
where the French Government welcomed
him and gave him pension. When he
learned that the throne of Burma was
being usurped by the illegitimate Prince
Thebaw, Prince Myngoon tried twice
to regain his rights, but failed.
Prince Myngoon then returned broken
hearted to Saigon. 1t is reported that
he died in abject poverty, but still pro-
testing against the British conquest of
Burma.

Near Brink of Insolvency, Says British Paper,
Warning of Threatened Catastrophe.

LONDON. Nov. 20.-Unless the United

financial catastrophe which is ever

clares in it's editorial columns this morn

The newspaper regards the limitation
of arnaments as an accomplished fact
for which it gives credit to the United
States. and passes on to its discussion
of finance with the remark that is hoped
the American people will display equal
courage and foresight in coping with the
vastly more imminent menace OF world
finance.
America alone can stabilize credit by
devising some scheme for financing the
nations now lowering on the brink of
insolvency" it says. under the caption

French finance may prove insuperable.

ALEXANDER TO KEEP
JUGO-SLAV THRONE
Young King Interested in
Developing and Strength

SOUNDS HOPE FOR PEACE
Ridicules Importance Of AL
bania, Saying He Wants
Protection From Clans.

BELGRADE. Nov. 20 (Associated Press)
All reports that King Alexander has
any mention Of abdicating may be put
down as pure fiction. The King has
never given the slightest thought to the
subject, and indeed it may be said that
no cause ever existed for such step.
The young serbian ruler already has
taken the oath to support the Constitu-
ton and his coronation probably will
occur soon after completion of the new
palace. which is expected to be ready
for the event some time next summer.
The King in an interview has just de-
ciared that stories forecasting his abdj-
cation were quite as absurd as other
reports concerning him while in Paris.
He said his health was excellent and that
he was glad to get back to Jugo-Slavia,
take up the reins of government and
help in the solution of the country's
problems.s His robust. fresh appearance.
quick step and buoyant, cheerful spiflt
certainly supported his statement that ne
was in excellent physical condition.
Hopes for Success of Farley.
Alexander sought news of the WASH
lnStOn arms conference, III The outcome
of which he said he was deeply in
terested. He expressed the wish for its
fullest success.
"Jugo-Slavia welcomes most cordially
every step toward the avoidance Of armed
conflict in the future" he said. Like all
other countries, we need peace, not only
to heal our wounds from the great war,
which are especially grave, but also to
enable us, by the mutual effort of our
united races. to achieve our full stature
and to gain that position and standing
in the family of nations to which our in
dustry, our riches and our situation en-
title us. / should indeed be happy If our
greater friends among the Allies fol-
lowed to a larger degree of sympathy
and understanding our efforts in this di-
rection."
Asked his views concerning the de-
cision of the Allied Council of Ambas-
sadors on the Albanian boundary dis
pute, the King replied that he hoped the
council, on reflection, would modify it's
decision so as to give greater justice
and protection to Jugo-S;avia.
"All we desire is peace and esta ablished
order" he said. I'VE have no imperialis-
tic ambitions In Albania or elsewhere.
Albania consists of poor. unproductive
mountain land, and no part Of 1t could
add materially to our wealth or impor-
tance. We seek only a strong boundary
line which will assure us security and
immunity from the constant incursions
and violence of the tribal groups that
make up that country"
The New York herald., 1921-11-21

1t was pity. Alexander added, that
Europe and America seemed so slightly
to understand Albania and the real
character of its people. They seemed TO
think Albania was a modern. progressive
and orderly country, with an organized
and stable Government and an enlght-
ened, peaceful and law abiding popula-
ton.
IF you have been in Albania you will
know how far this is from being fact"
Alexander said. "The country is ex-
tremely primitive, the Government Is
weak and without decisive authority the
people are untutored. hostile and re-
sentful.
The country is made up largely Of
tribal groups which constantly are at
war, even among themselves. They are
led by chiefs who rule by paternal
right"
