CALLS HALT IN DRESS
 SHRINKAGE IN FRANCE

PARIS, June 3 (by Associated Press) The after-war orgie of pleas ure in cosmopolitan centers has de- veloped so much daring license in Paris that the minister of justice has taken the matter in hand and called a sharp halt to the gradual shrinkage in the amount of dress worn on the stage and continual increase in loose ness of speech.
 Everything Approaching obscenity must be cut out of stage representa- tions, he declares, and dramatic art ists and music hall singers must be clad. Otherwise. the artists and the directors responsible for the character of the attraction offered to the public will be prosecuted.
 The press praises the minister for his courage and proposes a general movement in favor of the uplifting of dramatic productions.

TROOPS WITHDRAWAL
 WAS CAUSE OF PANIC

NEW YORK, June 3 (by Associat- ed Press) ).-Announcement that the French troops would be withdrawn from the Cilica district of Turkey as result of negotiations with the Turkish Nationalists caused a panic among the Armenian residents there, says Dr. J. K. Martin, a relief work CT at Aintab, in report sent to the Near East relief
 Dr. Martin said that most of the Armenians were leaving that city as fast as they could and that the poorer people who could not afford to leave were almost distraught with fear. The Turks have become bolder and more threatening since reports of the contemplated French evacuation were received.
 The missionary quoted a reported boast of the Moslems that they would rebuild their shattered mosques and minarets with Christian skulls and says this has not failed to have it's effect on the Armenians

THINKS CANNIBALS
 INHABITED OREGON

CORVALLIS, Ore, June 3 (bv As sociated Press) That an ancient race of cannibals inhabited Oregon before. the Indians, was the conclu- sion drawn by Prof John B. Hoerner, of Oregon agricultural college, after examining relics excavated from pre- historic mounds three miles west of Tangent, Ore.
 "The ancients were buried on their sides or in sitting position in 9 bed of charcoal four feet deep and encased With clay with charcoal over them" said Prof. Hoerner to a class of students who helpel in ex- cavating one of the mounds. "Sacri- fices were offered to the idols these people worshipped, and human flesh and bones were put in the grave be- side the dead to be used on the long journey. This goes to prove that some of them were cannibals and not Indians"

COMMUNIST MEETING
 IN ENGLAND BROKEN UP

LONDON, June 3 (by Associated Press) The temper of the people toward the Communists who are per mitted to preach their doctrines here unhindered was shown by an incident in Trafalgar square.
 After the strains of the Red Flag had been started at a Communists meeting, former officer, wounded so badly he could scarcely stand, stood up in front of the crowd num- bering several thousand, and called for cheers for the king.
 The response to his appeal was ear splitting. This so enraged one of the women members of the Commun- ist crowd that she rushed upon the officer and cuffed him roundly. There upon he called for three cheers for the queen, the prince of Wales and finally for law and order. This broke up the meeting.
