Mid Ocean Earthquake Makes The Barber's
 Razor A Menace

San Francisco, July S.-An earth quake is a mean proposition at best But for one to occur while a ship is passing through the quake zone is still worse- And worst of all. accord ing to Collector of the Port John O. Orient, is to be in a barber chair on board said ship, with a shaky bar Der welding the razor.
 The earthquake shook the Nanhng from stem to stern, and the barber bolted, locking Davis in the shop.
 Davis said the earthquake occurred in the region of the Lomocks Islands. close to the point where the Chinese steamer konk Moh was wrecked re- gently, with 1,2o0 Chinese passengers lost, and that the vibrations had giv- en rise to the belief that the Nan king was meeting a like fate
 The Nanking passed through the wreck zone three days after the yes sel had gone down, and Davis said bodies were still to be seen floating around on the Oceans bosom
 Davis related a tale of heroism in connection with the rescue of 200 survivors by Captain Evans, of the British ship Carlisle, which put out to the wreck scene from Hong Kong refusing to leave the fragment of their, boat protruding above the wat CT and save themselves. With seas too heavy for navigation by small boats, Evans Swam from shore with a line and effected the rescue being compelled to throw the majority of the paniclSy passengers into the wa ter.
 Evans was forced to jump in the ocean a second time to disentangIe hawSer which had caught in the propeller of a launch.

NO ROSY PICTURE
 OF RUSSIAN LIFE

Reval, Esthonia, July S.-Those who have the idea that BoIshevilz newspapers printed in Russia say only rosy things about the country could quickly be diSilluSiOned by per- usal of the paper themselves. Dur ing the past four months, the princi- pal Moscow and Petrograd newspap- CTS have been startlingly frank about some of the conditions that Commun- ism has produced.
 The Moscow Economic Life not long ago wrote the following descrip- ton of conditions on one of the Com munist 'modeP farms:
 ''The farm presented a picture of complete desolation- For years there have been no repairs. Win dowsx are broken, walls are falling in, afd some of the buildings are in ruins. Workers live in terrible, dir ty rooms, black from smoke. In one of the rooms there lives a calf, plac- ed there by the foreman despite pro tests of women tenants.
 There are neither potatoes nor vegetables for the workers. In the summer no one has bothered to store them- People are starving, cattle are starving. In the farm there are 32 persons, of these six are officials 2
 Phe old program of the BOlshevik government called for an increase in the number of these ''moder' farms. The new program by which the pea sants are given nine years tenure of their land, practically does away with them
 No less frank were more recent admissions in the Moscow newspap- CTS about the economic state of Rus sian factories, some of which were per cent of what they produced be- fore the war

TO PATENT
 NEW WING
 FOR PLANES

Dayton n,-O-. July S-Years of effort to cut down the comparatively high -cost of commercial aviation will be realized. officials of the Dayton with the patenting of new wing, invented by an employe of the com pany. Patents now are pending in Washington
 The wing will be controlled by the pilot, and in coming to earth can be so manipulated that it will arch, much as a birds wing, enabling practically undertaking glide to earth, instead of flying at various levels be- fore alighting, it is stated Pending it's patents the company is discios- ing nothing further regarding the nature of the invention
 The new wing, according toeCol- V. E.. Clark, chief engineer of the com pany, will make possible reduction in cost, by increasing the carrying capacity of any plane upon which it is installed by more than 300 per cent The same wing area and the same low speed in landing are-re- tained, he said
 Clark said, by increasing the lift CO., efficient so per cent
 It is singular that the invention was practically completed by CO worker of the Wright brothers-J- M JacoHbS-an emp1oye of the Dayton Wright company for 12 years He spent seven months working on plans for the wing. The invention was concluded under the direction of Col. Clark
 Officials of the Dayton-WGight company expect it to revo1uuonize commercial flying. In addition to increasing the carrying capacity of plane, the wing, Col Clark said, will make it possible to decrease the land ing speed by 30 per cent if the~same load is carried as with ordinary wings, and increase the flying speed by Zs per cent.e carrying the same load
 Most of the danger of landing will be eliminated, he said. and a flyer small field, now one of the most diff hcu1t things to accomplish in cross country flying.
 Advantage of the Improvements, Col Clark pointed out, may be taken as conditions arise and as the pilot sees ftA
 Another saving that should be re flected in the freight cost, he added, is that 1an{Ilg fields will not have to be as large, for in keeping the same locHl as with ordinary wings, flyer may get into a field one-tenth as large Small municipalities, he pointed out, could better afford to es- tab1ish such fields.
 Increasing the carrying capacity or plane will be accomplished, Col. Clark said. by adding to the total weight of the plane, hence giving more poundage room for fuel and load
 A plane that ordinarily has a ca pacity of 1000 pounds for fuel and load, with the new wings may take on 4.200 pounds.
 They are designed to give a slow speed and a high lift in landing. and a purely high speed in flight
 The gliding angle may be changed without changing speed. It is neces- sary with old type wings to jockey est speed, Col. Clark continued
 In landing in a restricted space, the wings may be set so as to offer in- creased resistance, enabling a land- barrier.

mate Of the prospective vote in the
house of commons tomorrow on the
Anglo-lrsh treaty. indicated that

complished by vote of ten to one,
according to officials.
A statement issued by canon De-
Valera at Dublin, in which he de-
clared that any agreement was sub
ject to ratification by the Dali
Eireann is considered in some quar-
ters to lend support to those who
think the Dali will make no decision
but refer the issue to the electorate,
on the ground that the members of
the Dali were not authorized by the
Irish people to accept the settle
ment the delegates signed.
1t Is reported from Dublin that
Professor MacNeil, speaker of the
Dali Eireann, and $. Hays, noted
figure in the Irish republican army,
are in favor of ratification.
Conservatives and moderate ele-
mehts throughout the south are
pressing for ratification and power
ful impetus will be given this move
ment if, as expected, the hierarchy,
which meets Tuesday comes out with
a plea for acceptance Of the treaty.
At Belfast, the Ulster party held
