On another occasion Stambou-
lssky, the vigorous statesman
farmer-reformer, told the congress
that Bulgaria would establish re-
public with King Boris as its pres
ident if the intellectual classes at
tempted to seize the reins of gov
eminent. His words were received
with volleys of applause.
The fact is that Bulgaria today
is. in a transitional stage from a
monarchy to a sort Of socialized
republic. The country is ruled en-
tirely by farmers. With one or two
exceptions the entire cabinet is
composed Of peasants and school,
masters. The king is negligible
quantity. - Stamboulisky exercises
the powers of a dictator. His atti-
tude toward the king Is that Of a
stern father toward Jealous son.
But he is very fond of the young
monarch, and many Bulgarians be-
Eeve that if he is able to retain Of
fee he will carry out his idea Of
making Boris the first president Of
the Bulgarian republic.

J. The German experimenterss how

been determined by experiment
That a propeller of three or four
narrow blades, caused to revolve
by the air pressure resulting from
a forced descent with a dead en-
CINE, will develop as much para
chute resistance as a solid disc of
the diameter Of the blade spread.
In addition, the German machine

Any Of the types advanced, would.

Courses in newspaper. reading in

supervisor Of school libraries In
Madison, Wis.
Pupils, his paper said, now spend
considerable time on such subjects
as algebra. (which they will never
use after they leave school," but il
Is more important time should be

| delpIda, chairman Of the Association
| of Railway Executives, outlining the
plan which he hoped would result in
| SPEEDY termination Of the strike.
Mr.. Harding, in his messages. asked
| both parties to the dispute TO agree
to comply with the decision rendered
on seniority by the labor board.
The further statement was made by
the president that he was mindful of
the pledge Of both the executives and
the striking Workmen to recognize
the Validity Of all decisions by the rail
road labor board" He also pointed
out s.he question Of seniority (which
the executives rejected" as outlined
