Treatment Of
Employees Leads To
Industrial Success

BOSTON, Dug. 81 - ASSOCIATED
Press MaiD-Survey committees of
the Unitarion Laymen's League, in
vestigating business concerns in 2S
states and in Canada in which in
dustrial harmony prevails and con-
flict is unknown, have completed
their reports of $50 surveys, covering
both the very largest industries and
also many which though small are
representative, and the "one out
standing fact which exists in every
single case was announced by the
League as follows:
THE managers have acted upon
their consciousness that all who work
in their organizations are fellow hui
man beings-brothers and the spirit
of the manager is also the spirit
of the great majority of the work
ers.
"The Unitarian Laymen's League
is not equipped to make a complete
canvass of all the concerns in the
United States and Canada in which
industrial harmony prevails, but GER
tainly the fact that, in every case
reported, success in business and in
dstrial harmony have gone hand in
hand with action based upon the
principles of mans brotherhood of
the wind"
These surveys were authorized by
the annual convention of the Lay
mems League, held in September 1921
at Narrangansett Pier, r. l., to which
166 of the Leagues 242 chapters sent
delegates. The report of the commit
tee in charge will be submitted at the
1922 convention, to be held at New
London, Conn, september 1910. The
80 chapters which have been organi
Zed since the 1921 convention will be
asked to make surveys before the
final report, with conclusions and re-
concentrations, is made.
Other League and chapter prob
lens and programs will be discussed
without benefit of clergy" At these

Buddhist Union Will
Send Expedition To
Explore Old Tibet

LONDON, Aug. 10 - ASSOCIATED
Press MaiD Great Britain intends
to make a thorough study of the little
known land of Tibet, where devil
worship and belief in ghosts still exist
A mission composed OF some of Eng
lands ablest explorers, scientists,
missionaries and ethnologists soon
will leave London for the city of
Lhasa, which is buried behind the
worlds greatest rampant of noun
tains, the Himalayas, between India
and China. The mission will proceed
under the auspices of the Interna-
tonal Buddhist Union, representing
all schools of Buddhism, including
the Buddhist Society of the United
States.
The mission will make a closer in
vestigation of the Tibetian people,
their customs, religion and language,
than has yet been possible, together
with a study of rare books and manu-
script known to exist in the monas-
tic Libraries. These are expected to
prove of the greatest value, not only
to Buddhist scholarship and to the
study of comparative religion, but to
fill many gaps that at present exist
in the worlds knowledge of the early
history of a country which to the
present day is yelled in mystery.
The Tibetans live in mountain
strongholds, $4,000 feet above the
level of the sea, which is 500 feet
higher than Mount Whitney, the
highest peak in the United States.
They have always proved inhospi-
table to foreigners and to the intro
duction of modern ideas. Little is
known of the origin of the people.
Local tradition has it that the pro
genitors of the race were "a She
devil of the Himalayas' and an ape
from the plains of Hindustan.
The last foreigner in Tibet was an
American medical missionary, DR.. A.
L.. Shelton, of San FRANCISCO, who
spent II years at Batang, near the
Chino Tibetan border. In it's form
of government, Tibet is one of the
few remaining t~heocracies in the
world. The people lead a nomadic
life. Monogamy, polygamy and poly
randry flourish. Under the polyand-
o u system, the eldest son of a
family marries a woman and she be-
comes the common wife of himself
and his brothers.
DR.. Shelton found that the Tibetan
woman usually marries three or four
brothers, and in one case that came
under his observation a woman had
six brothers for husbands. The old
est brother is considered the father
and the other brothers the uncles of
the family. Woman occupies a SUI
perior position. She is master of the
home and farm. Grass worms fungi,
and the horns Of young deer, ground
to powder, are considered by the I'll
betans infallible medicinal remedies
for all ills, and are even held in high
favor as table ~delicacies.

Court Finds France
Aided In Agitation
Of ~Separatists

MUNICH, Aug. 9 - ASSOCIATED
Press MaiD-Evidence introduced at
the recent trial of Baron Won Leopre-
citing, who was sentenced to penal
servitude for life on charges of high
treason, indicated that the accused
had received regular monthly pay
from the French minister in Munich,
NJ. Dard, and that France vas inter
ested in his alleged efforts to bring
about the separation of the south of
Germany from the north.
The Baron was charged with trying
to effect the separation of Germany
through French military occupation of
the line formed by the river Main. The
sections to be cut off included Bavaria.
Wuerttemberg, and Baden. The plan
involved also a part of Austria and
the Tyrol.
A document introduced at the trial
as having been prepared by the baron
was branded by the court as "a faith
fully reflected image of the annihilat-
ing methods already used against Ger
man by Cardinal Richelieu, Cardinal
Macerin. Louis XIV, Cardinal Fleury,
and Napoleon l."
"The document is a monument to
the burning hatred against German
unity and against all that is German"
the court declared in ~pronouncing
sentence. 1t planned the political,
economic, cultural, and moral disor-
ganization of Germany, and the des-
truction of the unity of the German
people,"
The court asserted von Leoprecht-
ing's plan aimed at making Germany
entirely dependent on France, political
~ and economically, and that it con
stituted documentary proof of Frances
scheme for forcible establishment of
French hegemony in Europe.
The court said it was convinced
that M. Dard came to Munich with a
mandate from the French government
to pursue an intensive agitation for
the separation of the south of Ger
many from the north and that he had
arranged with the French government
that, following certain preparations by
him, the French generals in the Rhine
land territory, with their troops, would
suddenly occupy the line of the Main
for the purpose of effecting the separa
ton.
Baron Won Leoprechting pleaded that
he acted purely out of patriotic mo
tives. intending no s"ubjugat1on OF
Germany and meant to accomplish
only a temporary separation. In pro
nouncing sentence the court announc'
ed it would have imposed the death
penalty had the law permitted.
