INDIANA PHYSICIANS
DOING more TO STOP
TUBERCULOSIS SPREAD
(Rv Associated Pressl .

INDIANAPOLIS, Oct IS. = Physi-
clans of Indiana are giving more sup
port each year to the efforts of the
tuberculosis association toward the
prevention of tuberculosis, according
to Murray A. Auerbaeh, secretary of
the Indiana tuberculosis association
This is true not only of individuals in
the medical profession throughout the
state, but of the profession itself as a
body, he said
The latest instance of such support
is to be found in the passage of resolu-
tons by the Indiana Medical associa-
ton, in its annual meeting at Muncie,
Mr.. Auerbach said. In these resolu-
lions the Medical association says:
Whereas, the Indiana Tuberculosis
association is carrying on a campaign
for a more intelligent appreciation of
the medical problem, which is evidenc-
ed in its program for the prevention
and control of tuberculosis; its health
activities among children 1.-The organi-
zation of county groups stimulating in
terest among laymen; the progress
made in bringing about the earlier di-
agnosis of tuberculosis, and increased
facilities for the care of the tubercu-
losis, be it
Resolved, that the Indiana Med
ical association endorse the work of
the Indiana tuberculosis association,
and urge the earnest support of the
medical profession in furthering its
| endeavors."

SOVIET NOTE DEMANDS
CHINA FORBID WHITE
TROOP CONCENTRATION
(By Associated Press)

PICKING, Oct 1S.-The soviet gov
eminent at Moscow, through its en-
voy here, Adolph Joffe, today pre-
scented flat demand on the Picking
foreign office that China desist from
permitting armed white" forces to
concentrate on Chinese territory for
attacks on Siberian soil.
The note cited an alleged agree
ment between Gen. Dieterich, head of
the Vladivostok '"white government"
and Chang Tso-Lin, war lord" of Man
churia. for mutual support. 1t cites
also Chang's receipt of arms from
Vladivostok, which, in the circun-
stances, is declared to be intolerable.
The soviet government freely charges
that the authorities of North Man
churia are assisting the whites" to
deal a blow at the Russian people and
enumerates in support of the charge
a long series of attacks made against
Siberian territory from China during
the last three years.
The soviet note asserted that the
alleged collapse of the Chinese eastern
railway constitutes a serious compli
cation which may result in entirely
isolating eastern Siberia, with the pos
sibility of an attack from Mongolia.
China's previous contention that the
evacuation of Mongolia by soviet
forces should be discussed before any
general conversation on Russo-Chinese
relations is Instituted is categorically
denied in the note which insists thai
all phases of the Russia-China situa
ton must be taken up simultaneously

M|LITARISTIC CHARGE
RIDICULED BY TROTzKY

MOSCOW, Oct. 1S.-The idea ad
Sanced by some sections of the for
eign press that Russia is becoming
militaristic and imperialistie because
of the revival of her naval forces, was
ridiculed by War Minister Trotszky
yesterday in an address before the
Union of Young Communists. Quite
the contrary was true, he said, as the
fleet was being re-established for
home defense only.
The occasion of the address was the
final meeting of the congress held by
the Young Communists, who have
taken over the guardianship of the so
Wet navy, promising to assist it in
every way possible Trotszky ap-
peared in a naval uniform
Eve have absolutely no imperialis-
tic aims he said. Therefore, we
need no navy for any international
purpose. We want peace. We want
to re-establish our economics. But at
the same time we must see to it that
our doors are firmly locked to assure
our own security"

Religious Instruction
Is Needed In Schools
Says President Eliot
CBv Associated Press

CAMBRIDGE. Mass, Oct. 1S.-The
most necessary change to be wrought
in American popular education is the
introduction into all the public schools
Of religious instruction, ethical instruc-
ton, President Emeritus Charles W.
Eliot of Harvard said in an address
here yesterday.
Speaking on the function of educa-
ton in heterogeneous democracies DR..
Eliot said: Some Of US believe that
there is a fundamental ethical teach
ing which may justly be called religi-
Gus and which conveys all the funda-
mental motives and all the spiritual
powers without being characteristic of
any Christian, Chinese, Buddhist, Con-
fucian, Hindu or MosIem church. How
can we get that kind of religious in
struction, ethical instruction, into all
our public schools? We shall not make
Democratic education successful until
we have accomplished that object.
Il imagine that agreement may pos
sibly be reached among all the relig-
ions represented in this country as to
the fundamental principles which
could be introduced into every Amer.
lean school. And what I believe to be

wrought in American popular educa.

cast here today
From all indications, both in the

bitterly for two years.
This was disclosed upon the return
of Edouard Harriet, mayor of Lyons
and the radical Socialist leader in the

NEW YORK. Oct 1S.-Delay in

Commissioner Plummer of the United
States shipping board declared in an
address today before the convention
of Industrial Engineers on board the
steamship, President Harding, here.
"To delay enactment of the bill, .
Commissioner PIummer said, means
giving the foreign interests a chance
to improve their fleets while our idle
ships are steadily depreciating; ii
means letting them get a grip on ouI
business, while we stand by and jab
Der; it means taking from US the op
portunity which our war-bulit fleet
has given the country, and the con
tinued outlay of 25 million dollars q
year caring for property that we won't
let earn a cent, while constantly in
creasing the cost of any merchant ma
rine that we may undertake to es
tablish at later date. Should we
indulge our competitors to that ex
tent?"
Discussing the bill, Mr.. Plummel
emphasized the Importance of its pro
visions for co-ordinating railroad ana
shipping service for the benefit o.
American exporters, which was pos
sible, he said, only through its gov
eminent aid provisions and also wha
he believed would be it's inevitable eff
