Body of French Socialist
 Joins Heroes At Pantheon

morning on a huge cotafalque erected before the central facade of the Chamber of Dupties, facing the River Seine, and in the afternoon will be borne in procession to the Pantheon. Many socialists from other countries will attend the ceremony, among them Dr. Brietscheid of Germany; Emile Vandervelde, Belgium, and Thomas Shaw and George Lansbury, of England.
 The progress of the train bearing the coffin across France was marked by q series of touching manifesta . tions. In every city along the route great crowds gathered about the sta tions to render homage to the friend of the people," as Jaures was known.
 Expenditure Criticized
 On the other hand the allocation of more than half million francs of the nations money to this socialist de- monstration in a time of financial stress has caused sharp criticism in many quarters. The government also decided against the use of "too much red" in the decorations of the cham Der and the Pantheon, and requested the architects to choose a more Sombre color.

NAVY TO HELP
 SOLVE PROBLEM
 OF INSTABILITY
Expedition Will Explore Ocean Depths To Obtain
 Scientific Data
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Nov. p. The navy, through its projected expedition to explore ocean depths and their make up and life, looks forward to aiding in solving some of the problems of today and yesterday.
 One of these grows out of the fact that every year the Mississippi river dumps into the Gulf of Mexico vast quantity of mud with an effect not yet fully assessed. Speaking before the conference on oceanography, which , planned the expedition, Austin H. Mu- scum, pointed out that this dumping of mud caused "a certain amount Of ln- stability" in the gulf, but added that the course of the mud has not been traced, in detail, though presumably y 1t goes to the right about the Mexican Gulf" ,.
 "As to the relation which this Mis- sissippi mud derived from the whole area of the Mississippi Valley, and also from the mountains on each side, but dumped upon a relatively small area Of sea bottom, bears to the, volcanic and seismic activities of the region from Mexico to Costa Rica, we know noth- ing" he said.
 Calling attention to the Oronoco and Amazon rivers on the south dumping quantities of mud to the south and east of the Lesser Antilles, Mir. Clark asked:
 Has that anything to do with the seismic and volcanic activities in the Lesser Antilles from St. Vincent to St. Kitts?"
 The outpouring of volcanic dust from volcanoes in that region, he added, has settled to the bottom of the Caribbean. The attention of the conference was dl- rected also to current elements Ill the Gulf of Mexico-C Caribbean area, where it is proposed to begin the naval pro- gram of sea exploration.
 What the divisions of the Gulf Stream in the area of the Bahamas will mean in determining the physical clements in the region in question Is tbe thing that this exploration should settle" Dr, Paul Bartsch, curator of the division of Mollusks, United States national museum, told the conference. I've know as yet very little as to what the proper faunal elements of the Gulf the Caribbean and the outer Bahama shelf may be and what relationship they may bear one to another
 A study of the sea bottom between Northern Siberia and Alaska might un- cover interesting data concerning the supposed land bridge that long ago linked two continents, Dr. H w. Nel- son, chief of the Bureau of Biological Survey, informed the conference:
 Tt is believed that north of Bering sea great land bridge once connected Asia with Alaska and thus made a road cross which came most of our big game and many of our smaller animals" Dr. Nelson said.

PARIS, Nov. 22.-The ashes of Jean Jaures, "the greatest French socialist" who was assassinated on the zoe of the war declaration in 1914. will be placed in the Pantheon tomorrow, alongside other great men of France. The trans fer from the Albi cemetery in the Tarn department, where the ashes were placed ten years ago, was made possible by the victory of the left in parliament last May. Six hundred and fifty thousand Francs was voted by parliament last week for the cere- mony.
 In the presence of the minister of education. the coffin containing the socialist leaders remains was disin- tered yesterday. This morning it was placed on a train, which reached Paris tonight. Meanwhile, room in the Chamber of Deputies building had been converted into a mortuary chapel, to which the coffin was taken, and groups of deputies and senators planned to spend the night in vigil.
