j, S. FORCES IN
CHINA INADEQUATE

Inchang, China, Sept. 25-( BY
the Associated Press) The Ameri-
can naval force on the Yangtse
river between this port aud Sui E'u,
about 500 miles west Of Szeehuen
province, is inadequate to afford
full protection to the hves OF Amer
leans, it is indicated as result Of
an inspection trip made by Admiral
W. Phelps Of the United States
navy up that stream.
While firing on steamers has vir-
tually ceased and navigation 10 open,
the feeling against foreigners which
exists among the Szechuenese has
tendency to make the situation
gradually grow worse, with tho
probability Of a renewal Of fighting
and attacks on foreign shipping, it
was said.
As late as September IS, foreign
steamers plying the Yangtse were
fired on by isolated groups Of Chin
sse soldiers and it was necessary TO
keep navigation open by means Of
foreign gunboats.

Athens, Sept. -(By the Asso-

effort by the popular elamor for it's
resignation, the cabinet Of Premier
Triantafillakos is developing unex-
pected cohesion in strength and may
even live out the present national
crisis.

ministry, chosen with the view OF
bringing it popular support; has
appointed General Papoulas govern
or general Of Thrace and has des~
ignated three popular generals to
proceed TO Thrace and push the
work Of reorganizing the army
there.
1 Meanwhile a note from the al
lied powers disclosing their eommun-

according to his conditions for peace
has reached the foreign office, and
has had the effect on the Grccian
people Of frigid and undesired
shower bath. The powers in their
communication merely informed the
Greek government Of their action.
Greece is not looking for more
trouble, said one official today, but
she intends to go right on with the
task Of building up her army in
Thrace. In Thrace, Greece is aad

PLAN TO PROTECT
YOUNG COASTERS
Mayor Harvey Approves
Roping Off Certain Hills
For Shedding
COMMUNITY. HEAD
AT WORK ON SCHEME

Plans are being considered for
roping Off certain streets Of the city
on evenings when coasting is good,
so as to lessen the peIti to boys and
girls who delight In shedding.
Mayor Harvey today gave the
scheme his approval. and Charles r..
Ernst, director of the wilmington
Community Service. Is working out
details whereby It can be put into
effect with least Inconvenience to
vehicular traffic and with greatest
safety to the coasters.
Il is expected that Director Ernst
will confer with Mayor. Harvey and
Police superintendent Black this
afternoon on the subject. The re-
cent injury TO a number OF coasters
has served to arouse strong public
sentiment forfaction Of some sort
which will enable the youth of the
city to enjoy the comparatively few
nights when Shedding is possible and
at the same time protect them from
harm.
BY selecting convenient hills in
different sections OF the city and
formally designating them as coast
ing places and by roping them of
and providing men to oversee the
coasting. 1t is believed the danger
can be reduced, TO a minimum.
Members OF the various neighbor-
hood associations are counted on by
Director Ernst to assist him in the
work.

While in Washington they con-
ferred with United States Senators
T. Coleman dupont and L. Heisler
Ball and Representative Caleb r.
Layton, comprising the Delaware
delegation, regarding the recon-
mendations to be made for the i'm
provement OF the harbor.
Primarily, the conference, which
was held in the office Of Senator
dupont, was designed to formulate
plans for the best presentation of
Wilniington's claims for aid by the
government in advance of the com
ing meeting of tte River and Har-
Dor Committee OF the House. The
Harbor Commissioners and Della
ware congressional delegation are
specially desirous of being able to
present intelligent data, should 1t be
called for by the committee.
Representative Layton is a MEM
Der of the River and Harbor Com
mittee, and Wilmingtons cause will
be sponsored by him when it is
takeniup.
While membeds OF tho Harbor
Commission declined to go into de-
tails as to the conference, they ex-
pressed satisfaction with the pro-
gress made toward winning Congress
sional support. One Of the strongest
factors in the situation is the attitude
of the Board of Engineers Of the
War Department, which has given
wilmington's project its warmesi
endorsement.
In this connection II has beer
note dthat no uess than three diff4r
ent engineers for the Wilmington
district-Colonel J. p. Jervey, Col
onel Il. N. Johnston, and Colone
Earl /. Brown, the present district
head-have been unanimous I'm theh
recommendations of the request.
made for Federal aid. Moreover
their recommendation have been en-
dorsed by the Engineer Board.
According to one member of th'
Harbor Commission, this afternoon
lengineers in Washington regard vii
mington's prospects as among th'
best of those OF any city in tb'
country applying for government as
sistance.
The fact that Wilmington has gon'
ahead with the construction OF tn
initial unit OF the new marine term
lnal at an approximate cost of 81.
100000, borne entirely by the muni
cipahty itself has greatly strengthen
ed its position. Such has been tn
method Of procedure adopted by nu
merous Pacific Coast cities. as wa
pointed out a year ago by Senate
Ball, upon his return from an in
spection Of the ports of San Fran
cisco and Seattle.
