Washington, May 3.--Army sub sistence experts have worked out de- tails of the bills of fare for the citi- 5cns' military training camps thls year at which some aS,0o0 youngsters will receive training.

 The menus provided by the quar- termaster corps for the guidance of camp subsistence officers include an allowance of fresh fruit and cereal Tor breakfast, salad and raw vegc- table for dinner, and a pint Of fresh milk of buttermik day for each person. The camp subsistence offi- ccrs have authority over the menu, provided they keep 1t well balanced and give every opportunity for the nourishment of the youngsters during their training.

Berlin. May 3.-Thc business asso- ciatcs and family Of Hugo Stinhes, now that the German indusi rial mag nate is dead, are taking cognizance of reports regarding him that were generally accepted and widely print cd ouis side of Germany in his life time especially in America, and which he, never took the trouble to contradict.
 Such report was one which rep resented him as boastful of his wealth and assuming to quote him as say ing he was the richest man in the world and could buy any man in Europe" Herr Stinnes not only ig- norcd all such reports, but did not even permit the three daily news papers which he controlled to deny them, saying he was too busy to worry about such stories and taking the position that they would not be credited. as similar tales were always printed about successful men.
 The report widely circulated abroad that he was of Jewish descent was also ignored by Herr Stinnes and became one of the errors connected with the mythical Stinncs known outside of Germany. His mother. the records show. came of an old French Huguenot family and his father was Q member of Westphalian Evangcl- ical family which has been identified for generations with the coal in- dustry.

NATIONAL STRIKE
 ONE ALTERNATIVE
Argentine President Warned
 Against New Pension Law
Ry The Associated Press.

By The Associated Press,
 Buenos Aires, May 3.-President De Alvaer was faced today with the al- formative of postponing application Of the new pension law or accepting the consequences of a nation wide strike, country for the reason that it is vir- tually accompa lying protest from both capital and labor against what is termed as absurd piece of legislation. The law provides for the deduction Of five per cent from salaries to be ap- piled to pension fund. the employ CTS contributing like amount.
 Strikes and lockouts have already begun in various cities, and in Ro- sario several persons are reported to have been wounded in a clash between strikers and police. A city wide strike is scheduled to begin in Buenos Aires today. while a general closing down by the employers is fixed for Monday, with the likelihood that it will con tinue unless the government yields.
 This general closure would affect many non-union employees, such as those of the depart ment stores and other commercial concerns who arc not participating in the general strike. Householders throughout the city be- sieged the provision stores today, buying quantities of food supplies to tide them over the strike period.
 President De Alvear while report ed as acknowledging the imperfections of the new law, has taken the stand that, as it is on the statute books, he is powerless to send message to cona gross asking amendment of the law, but the legislative body cannot be con vened immediately owing to technical and legal difficulties arising from the recent elections.
 The popular demand for postpone ment of the laws application is based on the argument that the president has already postponed it once and can therefore do so again.
 The situation is considered the gray est in the countrys recent history, threatening to tie up all commerce and industry excepting only the public utilities for which the pension scheme was previously established.

A RTHUR BYRON is one of the four
stars appearing in Spring Clean
ing at the E1tinge Theater, New
York. He resides in West 57th street.
The other morning after arising he
looked out OF the window. To his
amazement he saw man in evening
clothes running behind a taXicab
which was standing in front of the
house next door. and there was much
commotion both inside and outside
of the taxi.
While continuing to watch with
suspicion and alarm, he suddenly
saw the man this time dart from the
taxi and bound up the steps to the
house. To his astonishment he
recognized the man to be Lionel
Barrymore.
Much startled. Mr.. Bryon considered
his own condition of mind. was ne
fully awake, was he dreaming? lie
looked again more intently. The
man was most certainly Ionel
Barrymore and repeating the same
antics as before.
Relieving that Barrymore had sud
denly gone out of his mind Mr..
Byron hastily rushed to his friend
assistance only to discover that Mr..
BARRYMORE was as sane and as SOUND
as ever, and was rehearsing a scene
in a new motion picture before the

A Bit of Realism.

ZERO hour had arrived for the exc

by a chaplain and four guards, Rob
ert Agnew, young motion picture
star. entered the death cell. With
apathetic face he watched while the
guards attached the leg band and the
head piece which would electrocute
him.
Suddenly there was shrek and
young Agnew leaped from the death
chair Clutching at the air.
Hey, quit it, I'm being murder ed
The solemnity in the air melted
away like driven snow and the death
chamber rocked with roars of mirth.

When the laughter had subs~

constructed the execution chair had
done such a remarkable technical job
that he couldn't refrain from giving
them permission TO try out just a
weak shock of real juice when Agnew
took his place.
