ANCIENT ROMAN
 DOCUMENTS FOUND
 IN fGYPT'S SANDS
Remarkable Collection at Michigan University Will Take Fourteen Years
 to Decipher
By Associated Press

Ann Arbor, Mich, November b. What is described as one of the most important collections of ancient doc uments yet discovered, consisting Of more than 100 legal papers dating from the reigns of the Roman Emper- -ors Augustus, Tiberius Caligula and Claudius, has been brought here by Professor Francis w. Kelsey of the University of Michigan. Professor Kelsey spent some time In Egypt in search of records. The collection is held to be important because it re- veals the life of the people during the early Christian era.
 The records obtained by Professor Kelsey constitute a part of the files of record office in or near Tebtu- his. Egypt, and were discovered four months ago. They are written on papyrus and are chiefly In Greek, a few being Demotic. They are be- lieved to have been covered with sand soon after the record office fell. and, with few exceptions, are pre- served perfectly.
 The earliest records Is dated ' 4. D. and bears the signature of a woman who agreed not to bring claim against her brothers. Another rec- ord, of the same period, Is a contract of common law marriage.

I've just received a letter from Tony Iorocci asking me to the first annual dinner of the Garibaldo Golf and County club
 In the afternoon the club cracks will play match with the cracks of the New Odessa Golf and Country club, of which Mendel Liebowitz is president At the same time Marco Pouvoulidaearis, the pro of the Mace domia Golf and Country club will play an exhibition round with Nogi Kodama. who holds a similar posi- tion with Sayanara Golf and Country club.
 Among the guests of homer will be Foo Chow Lee. who holds the record on the course of the Sun Sang Vow Golf and Country club, and next week will meet Vanderhoven Hollenbeck of the Amsterdammer Golf undt Field Verein.
 I would like to attend this dinner, but 1 can't. l have accepted an in- Sitation to speak that evening to the Booker T. Washington Golf and Coun- try club, whose course has just been opened in Westchester county.
 A few years ago bout the only Americans who played golf were re- lations by marriage with the remit tance men in British Columbia and native born Scotsmen who sent back home for their clubs.
 It's different now. Coming down on the communication train about the only conversation you hear is what the man ahead of you made theat tough fifteenth in, and what Jim Barnes told him about the way he was pulling in with his brassie.
 If you go by one of the sporting goods stores you will see cunning lit- tie bags of cunning. little clubs for the five-year-o to begin with. The kindergarten in the town I live in Is looking around for tract of land that can be used for a course for It's pupils. It will get all the kid trade, In town by this enterprise unless the opposition kindergarten lays out a course of its own.
 How Things Change
 Out on Long Island the residents of the big estates some years ago put up terrible howl because the state was talking of locating an 6rphan asylum in the same township.
 They've withdrawn the complaint now, and are offering to advertise the asylum at their own expense, so 1t will attract orphans from all quar- ters of the world.
 The orphan asylum, you see, will break the caddy shortage, and a cad dy shortage Is about the most serious thing that can happen to an Ameri- can community nowadays.

 It would take si,00O to get back to the United States, which meant 100,o00,0o0 rubes. Speculate as he might, he could never get togethei such a sum.

THINKS POWER IS
 NECESSARY BASIS
China Expects Little From Conference Because of
 Her Weakness
By Associated Press

Peking, September 27.-The Tient- sin newspaper, Ia Chun Shang Pao. believes that with civil strife up- setting the country. China can hope for little benefit from the Pacific conference.
 "The ministry of foreign affairs has just established an investiga- ton bureau for the purpose of gath ering materials, records and other documents to be used at the Pacific conference in connection with China's case" says that paper
 We believe this can do little to- ward attaining our object, for so long as China lacks the power essential to success, foreign powers will con tinue to look down upon her and treat her as an inferior; so that even if we have overwhelming evidence at our disposal to support our case, they will never take the trouble to go into it so as to render a decision in our favor Under such circum- stances 1t would be foolish to expect success.
 '"The all l-important question today Is to settle our domestic strife. When peace and order are restored, for eigners in our midst will not suffer from occasional disturbances. and their ministers and governments, seo- ing that China still has the ability to maintain order, will naturally treat us with respect, and the Japanese propaganda that China has not the necessary capacity to protect foreign life and property and that Japan should be appointed guardian over her. will explode by itself
 If all this can be accomplished before the Pacific conference, We are not without a ray of hope. If, how ever, we indulge in continual civil strife between one province and an- other we are simply furnishing evil dence to prove the truth of the Japa- nese contention.
 ' For the peace of the far east and the interests of their national for eign powers cannot but approve the internationalization of China and 1t is perhaps not unlikely that they will charge Japan with the task of over seeing us. When this happens our sovereignty will be completely lost and what favor can be expected from the powers when we set forth all our evidence and records before them to support our case?
 Let both the people and the gov ernment work to avoid this eventu- ality."

Tiflis, October 2.-(Ey Staff Cor respondent of The Associated PressJ The question uppermost in the minds of all visitors To Russia Is: What can be done to revive Russia's broken down economic and industrial situa- ton.

 The friendly Jew, high official in the soviet of Georgia, sent here from Moscow to carry out in some degree the latters plans, sat down in the crowded compartment and talked about Russia from his point of view
 "Russia's got to be boiled out that's all" he explained. The pro- cess may takeN20 years, but when it's finished there'll be but two great peoples on earth, Russians and the

 What Russia now needs is factory products, is trained engineers to put her on her feet, to help set to work her mines. and whoever gets in on that job is bound to make big for tunes.
 "The next and immediate need of Russia is education. The soviet is trying to do that. Every man in the Red army is taught to read and write But the job Is a difficult one. Under the old regime. education was discouraged The people were eN- plotted by the wealthy and educated few"
 This keen Russian-American told of himself and his present needs. He was earning a big salary. 100000 ru- bles a month, exactly $1 at the pres- ent rate of exchange. and enough to keep his family going for about a day. The rest the millions of rubles necessary for the other days, he made up by speculation, by snrewd prac- tices. for which he would be shot if they were known, But it was either that <br starvation.
