NO ATTRACTION FOR
old HERMIT PRIEST
CBy Associated Press,

HONOLULU, T. H, June 13-Broth-
er Dutton, hermit priest of Molokai,'
the leper island of the Hawaiian
group, celebrated mis- 79th birthday
and his 36th year of labor among the
exiled inhabitants of the colony on the
rock-bound peninsula of Kalawao re-
Gently, according to messages to
friends in Honolulu.
81 am still happy and the outside
world has no attraction for me-" wrote
the successor to the famous martyr
priest, Father Damien, who died, a
victim of leprosy, after years of devo-
ton to the care of the Kalawao EXP
lies. 81 find my duty and my pleas
ure in trying to ease the sufferings of
stricken humanity here" Brother
Dutton added.
The life story of Brother Dutton is
unique, according to Honolulu friends.
He has never set foot off the lonely
isle since his arrival there 36 years
ago to work with Father Damien.
Once a soldier, he retired with the
rank of captain after the Civil war.
He was "debonair, a lover of the
treasures VI lie, q Beau Drummer, anu
he sowed his wild oats until he was
35 years old" Then he concluded
that This life had been wasted and he
must salvage it through penance."
Convert to Catholicism
As a convert to Catholicism, he was
pabtized at the Trappist monastery al
Gethsemane, Kentucky. He deter
mined to bury himself from the world
and to spend the remainder of his
I days in self-abnegation.
! In the Redemptorist monastery in
! New Orleans he read a magazine ar

! life should be devoted to the care OF
| the lepers. and he sailed from San
! Francisco in 1886. When Father Da
mien died, he took over all of his
! duties.
No mother nursed her children with

CHURCH ADVERTISING
VALUABLE ADDITION
TO PAPERS IS CLAIM
(Ry Associated Press

MILWAUKEE, Wis, June 13-
Church adveI Using can be made a val
liable adjunct to every good news
paper in every community. according
20 Frank T. Carroll, advertising man
2ger Of the Indianapolis News, in an
address today before the Associated
Advertising Clubs of the World.
From the standpoint of the news
paper, there are many reasons why
the development of regular church
advertising should be fostered," the
speaker said. "A page or pages of
church announcements gives added
character to a publication because ii
puts the stamp of approval of the
church-going public upon the news
paper The support of the churches
is valuable asset for the advertising
manager because the church people
are the thrifty, homecoming and bet
ter element of the community; the
people on which every advertiser de-
lends when he places his store an.
nouncement in the columns of the
newspaper.
"A church advertising section also
is an asset to the circulation depart
ment of a newspaper because it gives
the newspaper a representation with
the congregations of the various
churches using its advertising col
umnS."

1Rv Assoedated Press

WASHINGTON, June 13.-Informal
conversations looking to establishment
of a new basis of negotiation in the
Tacna-Arica dispute were continued
today by the delegates to the Chilean
Peruvian conference. The subject OF
the exchanges was kept mystery, but
the plenipotentialries did not try to
conceal their reviVing hope that a way
soon might be found to break the vir-
tual deadlock reached almost a week
ago.
At the same time in circles close to
the conference renewed prominence
was given to a suggestion for COM
promise arbitration formula, under
which the United States would be CIV
en- authority to decide on broad con-
siderations how the Tacna-Arica ar
ticle of the treaty of Ancon should be
fulfilled.
Any such formula it was suggested
necessarily would take into account
in an Enthusiastically way the respec-
tive attitude of the two delegations
and incorporate both the Chilean pol
icy for arbitration of the conditions OF
plebiscite in the disputed territory
and the Peruvian stand for an arbitra
ton to decide whether any plebiscite
should be held

To seek middle ground between
these two positions was understood Il

the continued recess of the formal con

Meantime any prospect of an exer

Bile that steps toward American media
ton might ibe taken should the pres
ent exchanges result in a disagree
ment although it appeared certain tha
any mediatdry action pending a defir
tie decision on the new Chilean sug
gestion was out of the question.
The general prediction in confer
ence circles was that this decision
probably would be reached within
day or two and that another forma
session then would record final
either an agreement or a definite in
passe.

That the crippled children of Rich
mond and vicinity are being cared for
by special committee of the Rotary
club was brought out at the regular
meeting Tuesday noon at the Airing
ton hotel Julian Smith, who is head
of this committee, reported that orig
inally there were IA crippled children
on the list but that this number was
later swelled to %. He stated that
every one of the cases had been eth
er treated or investigated. He re-
ported on each individual case. He
stated that thus far the expense of
the work has not been burdensome.
One of the most interesting facts
brought out by the report was that
the parents of many of the children
had hampered the efficient working
of the committee by refusing to per-
nit the proper and surgical care to be
given. 1t was brought out that in the
future this trouble could be alleviated
by the presence of a member of the
board of state charities, whose au-
thority will permit the committee to
proceed unhampered.
Plans to repair and complete the
work on the Ki-Ro-Y boys camp at
Fairfield also were discussed at the
meeting The Eiwanis club, which
helped purchase the camp, will be
asked to cooperate in the new plans.
No definite date was set for the work,
but it was pointed out that all of the
Rotarians would be expected to go on
the outing and give personal aid. A
committee was appointed to make def
mite plans for the project.
