Army Physicians
Hope toProlong
Lives of Officers
Orders Issued to Treat Any
Focal Infections" Found
During Spring Examina-
tions of Personnel.

Washington, March 25. - Army
doctors are hopeful that a very ap-
preciable prolongation OF life among
regular army officers will result from
steps being taken as a result Of the
annual physical execution OF the al
lied commissioner personnel. Under
special instructions issGed by Sur
geon General Ireland when the JAM
uary physical examinations began,
efforts are being made to treat
definitely any focal infections Cab
cesscd teeth, diseased tonsils, defect
ed sincess) or conditions which may
be responsible for chronic degenera-
tive changes"
THE removal of such underlying
causes" Gen. Ireland said, in men,
orandum to Maj. Gen. Harbord,
deputy chief OF staff, may result in
return to normal condition and very
appreciable prolongation of life"
The memorandum pointed out that
the annual examiners were under
taken IA years ago, primarily with a
view to eliminating those officers,
found incapaciated," but that of re-
cent years the value of the work to-
ward heath preservation had been
stressed. As part of this develop
ment, "a very thorough investigation
OF the medical records of all COM
missioned officers of the army is in
contemplation. Gen. Ireland said,
with the object of determining cor
rectible abnormal conditions which
might have a bearing on life expect
ancy." Determination of "the in
fuence of the world war on
physique" and also the effect of trop-
ical service in the army on health
would be a part of this study, he
added.

Rival Irish Heads
to Meet In London
to Discuss Riots
Griffith, Dugan and Collins
Expected to Confer in Lon.
don With Craig and
British Officials.

Dublin, March 25.-Arthur Grit
fifth, president OF the Dali Eireann,
and Eamon J. Dugan, minister OF
home affairs in the dali cabinet, are
planning to go to London Monday
in response to the British govern
ment's invitation to a conference on
the unsettled situation in ireland.
London, March 25.-(By A. P.)-
Michael Collins, head of the pro-
visional Irish free state government,
was reported as preparing to leave
Dublin for London today in response
to the imperial governments invita-
ton to discussion of the situation
growing out of the recent grave
events in Ireland.
Nothing had been heard from Sir
James Craig, Ulster premier who
was also requested to come, except
the statement over night that he had
not yet received the governments
message. 1t was assumed however,
that he would be on hand for he
conference which it is hoped will
bring forth some means OF restoring
order.
Should the Ulster government ac-
cept the invitation to the conference,
it is expected the conference will
meet here on Tuesday.
Express Horror.
The invitation asked the heads Of
the two Irish governments to bring
with them such colleagues as they
might deem necessary, parties to
the discussions.
The morning newspapers comment
at length on the situation, especially
expressing horror at the murder in
Belfast of five members of the family
of Owen MacMahon. They term
the tragedy the worst massacre in
Ireland since Dublin gunner slaugh-
tered IA British officers there in No
vember, 1920.
Latest reports from Belfast say
the crime has profoundly shocked
the conscience of every decent ele-
ment of the city, and it is feared
more murders will occur as reprisal
Meanwhile nothing has been learned
so far as known here, which will
identify the murderers.
Blame Northern Government.
Some of the newspapers which in
no wise condone the outrages com
mitted by southern extremists and
contend that the north has given
much provocation, roundly denounce
the continuance of violence in Bel
fast. They are disposed to hold the
northern government responsible to
great extent for having, as they
say. failed to exercise sufficient
repressive measures.
Belfast, March 25.-(By A. P.)-
Premier Sir James Craig today re-
ceived a telegram from Winston
Spencer Churchill, imperial secre-
tary for the colonies, inviting him
to conference in London on the
Irish situation. The premier replied
that the message would receive the
earnest consideration of the north.
ern government and that a further
reply would be sent shortly.
The Ulster cabinet has been sum-
moned to meet Monday for other
business. and it is understood Sec
retary Churchill's invitation will be
considered at that time.
Gunmen were again busy today
Three men ambushed John Beres-
ford, Protestant and an employe
of morning newspaper. He was

CITY BANKS To
AID IN PAVING
CENTRAL AVENUE
Offer to Accept Five Year
Liens on Property Along.
Avenue to Cover Proper
ty Owners Expense.

Paving liens covering a portion
of the cost of paving East Central
avenue from the city limits are be-
ing signed by the property owners
on this section of the avenue.
OF the federal aid project, the
property owners share of the ex-
pense will be approximately
$4,000. How to finance this por-
ton of the cost has been a prob
lem, but indications are that it has
been successfully worked through
the cooperation of the banks of
the city.
The majority Of the property
owners have agreed to spend as
much as $2.70 per running foot for
the improvement including curb
and gutter. This would bring the
maximum price of the paving per
SO foot front to $135.
City banks have agreed to take
liens on the property along the
avenue with the condition that 20
per cent of the sum be paid at once
and the remainder within five
years. 1t is these liens which are
being submitted to the property
owners. 1t is understood that the
entire business must be completed
by Tuesday in order that the state
highway commission can be noti-
fled of the property owners deci-
sion by Tuesday night.
The project is to be constructed
under federal aid, the expense be-
ing divided between the property
owners, the county. the state and
federal government.
