DANCE DRAMA
ON VIEW AT LYRIC.
The bill at the Lyric this week is
headed by verna Mesereau and company
in dance drama called "Reincarnation.'
Miss Mesereau first introduces -four
pretty girls, whom she says may have
been queens of ancient history. Then a
male dancer (he probably was king)
makes his appearance. The entire COM
pany takes part in several Egyptian
dances. Miss Mersereau is clever
dancer and her act is pleasing.
Earl Cavanaughs Last Night is a
fast moving little musical comedy, with
special songs and dances, some pretty
girls and situations which afford plenty
of comedy.
The Parker Trio are three men with
good voices who sing some songs and OBJ
tain lots of laughs with their ''wop'
style of comedy.

MASAUORI ITO
DESIRES JAPAN
TOKEEP 'MUTSU'
Japanese Newspaper Writer
Says New Battleship Is
Pride of Nation.
/ Special to Indiana Daily Times
and Philadelphia Public Ledger.
r. AYASArnTy ITO

By MASAUORI ITO,
Of the Toxic Ji-Ji-SbimpO. Japan's fore
most naval writer.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 15-In yester
days article I personally insisted that
the United States proposal should be ac-
cepted by Japan in principles that is to
say, abolish or scrap all super dread-
naughts under construction Or on pro-
gram. l firmly believe that an impreg-
nable tie with the United States is far
more effective than the SIS fleet for
Japan's national defense
Taking it for granted that Japan will
gladly welcome the United States plan Of
ten years naval holiday, which aims
at adjustment of capital ships, certain
slight suggestions to revive a proportion
of dreadnaughts, I hope, would be met
with friendly and sensitive consideration
by American readers. l can not PREJUDICE
as to what sort of proposal our expert
advisers may suggest but as far as my
tactical conception goes ii is not i'm
possible to make 4 constructive sugges-
ton to satisfy all three naval powers
alike.
SATISFIED WITH
20 PER CENT.
Within my short radius of intelligence
/ of naval affairs l am confident that a de-
fensive party when the battle is to be
fought near it's own territory, is sufficed
to have a strength Of 20 per cent of the
offensive party. This will be admitted
by all naval authorities of the world
If the United States naval authorities
recognize this as principle-I am Ger
tain of it-Japan'S allotted proportion Of
dreadnaughts should be subject to a
slight revision.
I believe that the japanese people at
home, who very likely share my view in
naval questions will expect a revision Of
the great United States plan when it is
applied. The one is the omission of the
battleship "AIutsu" from scrapping on the
ground that it is now completed and on
the morrow Of being commissioned. 1t
may not he unreasonable that the nation
regards it next to intolerable to have
"Mutsu" abolished on the very day of its
completion, after they paid more than
! 80, 100000 yen from their scanty purse.
SEES NOTHING
TO ALARM.
! Let me analyze it. An addition Of
"Arutsu" brings our allotted dreadnaughts
to eleven and total tonnage approximately
to 325,OOO instead of the proposed 2SS32O.
According to the United States plan
Japan's dreadnaucht tonnage ratio to
! America is approximately J1l@ per cent.
the latter's allotment being 300.050 An
addition of "tIUtSu" strengthens it TO 60
/ per cent, which viii 20 a long way to-
ward satisfy Japdnasc a. home. and
will also serve 10 develop appreciation Of
Americas peaceful intentions and broad l.

CARDINAL GIBBONS
IS BETTER TO-DAY
Catholics Pray for Him After He
Suffers Relapse-Museular Weak
ness Involves Heart Action.

BALTIMORE, Jan. Cardinal Glib
bJnS rallied today from his relapse after
nights rest and was much better, ac-
cording to news received at the arch
where he is iii at the home of friends.
The message came from Cardinal Glib
bOns'S secretary, who was quoted aS say
ing. rIIiS eminenee is feeling fine and
IS talking about coming home
All the Catholic religious communities
here prayed throughout the greater part
of the night for the cardinal. Special
PRAYERS also were offered at all masses
today by direction Of Bishop @. T. Carri-
gan. vicar general of the diocese. The car
dnal's Baltimore physician said the pre-
late was suffering from muscular weak
ness. which involved the heart action, but
that between these attacks he was as well
a. anybody.
Since last Sunday, when the condition
of the cardinal took a favorable turn. it
had been hoped he would steadily gain
strength and eventually be in condition
to travel To Baltimore. Obviously the
doctors had not anticipated the relapse
but this turn. fhey explained, was due
to the cardinals advanced age and con-
sequent inhrmities. The mind of the pre-
late is said to be perfectly clear.
The turn in the cardinals condition
prompted the Rt. Rev. Owen B. Corri-
gan. auxiliary bishop of Baltimore. who
is associated with st. Gregorys church,

Catholic clergymen OF the archdiocese. and
through them to their congregations. di-

prelate, or, in lieu of this, for a happy
death
Earlier in the day Cardinal Gibbons
from his sick bed gave New Years
message to his hosts of friends in Balti-
more, Washington and Throughout the
country, expressing particular regret that
he would not be able this year to greet his
Baltimore and Washington friends in
person. rs has been his custom for NOR,
