One after the other of the leading
colleges are going on record as OPP
posed to the stand taken by Harvard.
Such colleges as Amherst, Brown,
Dartmouth, in particular have ex-
pressed themselves as differing in
principle with the stand taken by
President Lowell. Yet I cannot help
but believe that the restriction meas
ures suggested by Harvard will be
put into effect, exactly as they are
already in effect in some other lead
ing universities. While on the sub
iect I am sure that most college
presidents will agree that while some
Jewish students may not be socially
acceptable they are not such drunk
ards and gay-white-way boys as all
too many of the Gentle students
are.
The world do move. That in
cludes even the Episcopalians. I al
ways thought Episcopalians trifle
too "churchy.' Took their worship
too seriously. Over Theological, so
to speak. Too much pomp and cere-
mony: choir boys, vestments and all
the rest of it. Then they lack a
sense of humor. I am speaking of
course of the official Episcopalians;
if they hadn't taken themselves SO
seriously and got into such a frame
of mind where they actually believed
that there was only one heaven
and that an Episcopalian one, they
wouldn't have become such over
starched theologians. For example
for some three hundred years they
have linked up officially the TURK,
the Jew and the Infidel." Rather
rough on us, I say. But they took
this quite seriously and God knows
what the Episcopalians have been
consigning us to during all this time:
that is in their Prayer Books. But
light is beginning to dawn and
we discover that the general con-
vention of the Protestant Episcopal
Church at Portland, in September an
effort will be made to disassociate
the Jews from their neighbors. -
the Turks, the infidels and the
heretics" for some say that it isn't
fair to class the Jew who believes
in God with the others. But until
this resolution is finally passed quite
a number of Jews will yet be con-
signed to the fires of hell. One Won
ders at the little progress men have
made mentally. And it seems to me
that the Church needs vacuum
cleaner to rid itself of the accumu-
lations of age-worn superstltlons.

Land Reclamation Plan
Wins Bonus Advocates
Proposed Amendment 10 I'm.
prove Western Farms Cain
ing in Favor

From The Tribunc's Washington Burcon
WASHINGTON, July 3.-Supporters
of the Smith McNary reclamation
amendment to the soldiers bonus bill
nave become among the most enthusi-
astic advocates of the bonus measure.
according>to to Western Senators who are
in favor of the amendment The par
pose of this proposed amendment is to
replace the land settlement feature of
the bill. which the Finance Committee
eliminated, with a comprehensive
proposition looking to the reclamation
of not only irrigable land in the West.
but also the reclamation of swamp
lands, cut over lands and the like. This
reclaimed land would be available to
soldiers on easy terms.
senator Ashurst, of Arizona who is
one OF the leaders in the movement
said to-day he regarded it as one of
the biggest features of the bonus plan.
lie pointed out that it would make
$3.50 900 available for the reclaim
ing of lands in many states.
Supporters of the bonus bill continue
TO await a favorable oportunitv to
press motion for the consideration of
this measure. 1t it appears soon after
July that the tariff controversy will
be prolonged, another effort to bring
forward the bonus bill is likely to be
attempted any day when the attendance
OF Senators justifies it.

Custave Holman. OF 7o6 Commerce
Street, Jersey City, was arrested yes
terday by Councilman Joseph Klitch,
Of North Arlington. charged with reck-
less driving of an autom mobie on the
River Road, North Arlington. Holz-
man was fined S25 by Referee Bennett,
who lectured him severely.
Councilman kIitch told the referee
he met Hoizman's automobile in the
River Road early yesterday afternoon.
Holman, ne said, was steering with
his left hand. His right arm encircled
the waist Of young woman, who ac-
companied him in the machine. The
Councilman blew his police whistle to
halt Hozman's car and told the young
msn he was under arrest.
Mr.. klitch explained that while Holz-
man was not driving at high speed
his attention was devoted rather to
the girl beside him than to driving, and
this, in the officials view. constituted
recklessness.
Holman explained that he had never

Port Arthur Abandoned

Toxic Admiralty Also Denies
Reports That Arms Treaty
Is Being Evaded

TOXIC. July 8 (By The Associated
Press).-The Admiralty day issued a
formal statement fatty denying recent
reports that Japan was cvading the
washington naval treaty by increasing
construction OF auxiliary vessels The
statement, which outlined the tenta-
tive auxiliary program, also announced
that Fort Arthur, taken from the Rus
slams in the Russo-Japanese War,
would be abandoned as naval port
Japan's auxiliary naval program, ac-
cording to the Admiralty, while still
uncomplcted. probably will consist of
Jour cruisers of 10000 tons each and
four Of 1000 tons each; "a first class
destroyers. with an aggregate tonnage
OF $4,000; "a submarines with an ag-
gregate tonnage of 28,166
This, says the official statement, rep
resents reduction of 1895 gross ton
mage, or one cruiser, IS destroyers and
"a submarines. less than the original
program for ships to be completed in
1927.
Obsolete ships will be scrapped as
new ones of the same type are com
pleted. The new plans involve great
er total cost than the old program, ow-
ing to increased expenses in material
and labor, but a saving is to be effected
by converting the port of Maidmura
from naval base to a naval port and
abolishing the naval port of Port Ar
thur. This will be accomplished as
soon as ratification of the Washington
treaties is fact.
The reduction in tonnage will neces-
state dropping 10000 officers and non-
commissioned officers from the naval
rolls.

Greek Meets Greek

Rough Stuff Is Out
Travellers Society Secs 10 1t
Cave Man Scheme to Kid

Others Here for Husbands

The Travellers Aid Society, at 465
Lexington Avenue, was crowded yes
terday with picture brides from Greece,
who had arrived here last Sunday on
the King Alexander. Outside their
fances waited, smoked cigarettes and
swore at the delay. Among these last
was Caipo Nikoli, a prosperous pcr-
chant from the Middle West.
Calpo. had had plan whereby he
might dispense with all this formality.
He had thought to meet the ship when
it dockcd in Brooklyn, and with the
aid Of two friends whisk his lady into a
taxi and away with her to Coney
Island. Her name he knew to be Ana
stasia Giano, because she had written
that it was so, and according to the
picture she was beautiful. He had
never seen her.
He would take her to the amusem cnt
places, dance her around, give her a
couple Of rides in the chute the chutcs,
and then next day they would be mar
ried without any fuss or confus ion.
1t would be better that way than let
ting her be taken in tow by the Tray
elers' Aid Society and not seeing her
until they permitted it, and then hav-
ing the ceremony attested by one of
their agents.
The only mistake that Calipo made
in this impetuous program was to dis
cuSS the details of it with his accom- e.
plices they waited on the dock for
Anastasia to appear. One of the so
ciety's agents overheard them and
understood their language. 1t was.
therefore, tough luck that two burly
men should intercept him and his
friends when they rushed forward to
meet the charming Anastasia.
The brides there were 125 of them
were taken to a hotel for the night.
Calipo followed his Anastasa. He
tramped the corridors until late at
night and was up early yesterday
morning to greet her.
She was taken to the Offices Of the
society. There, after Calipo had al
most despaired of ever seeing her
again, she was finally presented to
him, and after he had been warned of
his duty, the marriage ceremony took
place.
