CECIL B. DeMILLES PRODUCTION  OEAnatOI' With an all Star Cast
MOVE MADE 10 BUILD UP NEW
 INDUSTRIES
With an d'l Star Cast

WASHINGTON, March 7.-Facing the loss of various industries which sprang up during the war, and are now dying out in this country, var- ous government agencies are a: work in an effort to build up the more val uable ones.
 Among these defunct activities is the manufacture of optical glass in the United States. Most of this material came from foreign sources, especially Germany, prior to the war. When war interrupted the sources of supply an impetus was given manufacturing genius in the United States. which has since gradually disappeared. The optical industry is of value to the country not only for economic reasons, it is pointed out today by a naval official, but also for war pur- poses, without which supply our mili- tary and naval manufactures would be greatly hampered
 Accordingly, the navy particularly, is engaged in stimulating as much as possible the manufacture of optical glass in this country, in an endeavor to keep it alive.
 The same applies to aircraft fac tories of private control. In an effort to encourage this invaluable source of defensive power the navy. as well as the army and other agencies, is lending every possible aid. The navy itself has refrained from building it's own planes in a desire to furnish oc- |'cupation for an infant industry which has suffered seriously since the war robbed it of it's market.

Treatment tor Leprosy
 Is Cutting Death Rate

TOKYO, Nov. 2-The future of the lepcr is now bright and the dis ease being much less courageous than is generally supposed, a judi cious system of segregation with the present methods of treatment will rid Korea of the menace, according to MT. Mackenzie head of the Fusan Asylum. The Mission to Lepers has three asylums in Korea.
 "At one of those, nine patients have been discharged with no trace of the disease left" said MT. Mac kenzic Before the special treat ment was begun in the Fusan Asy- lum, the yearly death rate always was above 25 per cent. For the last year it stands at two and one-half per cent, but as half the deaths re suited from typhoid it may be said that the death rate from normal causes was but one and one-quarter per cent"
 The government contemplates the erection of a large national asylum outside of Tokio for the aecommoda- ton of lepers, of whom there are about 16.000 in Japan.
