ITALIAN PRESS CENSOR
 ASKED TO CONDEMN EARLY
Publishers Urge Prompt Action If Any Curtailmcnt of Editions
 Are To Be Made

Rome, Oct. 16 R>-Italian news papers allied politically with the parties opposing the present Fascist government, whose daily destinies are at the mercy of the press cen- sor, have addressed a plea 10 the cen or that "he condemn them quickly If he intends to condemn them"
 The press law provides that the censor approve each issue of each newspaper. the penalty being sup pression of the edition if anything Is found objectionable.
 Recently the censor changed his office hours so that he did not ex- anime the newspapers until several hours after their appearance. The result was that condemnations came so tardily that the newspaper was unable 10 print later expurgated edition, as was previously the cus- tom. Consequently all the copies of the newspaper were seized and the regular readers had no copies st all.
 "Please. Mir. Censor" the news rapers said. would you mind con dcmning us quickly If you intend to at all?"

Great Number of Women
 At Oxford Summer School

Oxford, Oct. l6 Pl-The Oxford summer school was outstanding tof its great proportion of women stu dents They were numerous in all lecture rooms and often well out the men, especially in the libraries. Oxford experience shows that women in university are more conscientious and work hard CT than 10 men. without winning proportionate honors in final ex. aminations. This fact tends to reconcile the men to the admission of women, for they now are losing their fear of female prCdominanCe.
 It is often remarked that several Oxford colleges were founded hy women. either alone or with their men relations. but that In no case were women students admitted 10 the foundation. This fact Is the more noticeable in that Coeducation was not unknown at the time.

Barristerss
 Will Revive MoOts

London. Oct. 16 R -- A revival Of the old custom of holding "moots" in the Middle Temple ia being planned for November.
 The moot is a mock trial design. ed to give men in the legal pro- fession and now women - the opportunity Of arguing legal prob lems arising from esta blished facts. in the form in which cases are argued in the court of appeal. Two counsel are assigned for each side and when they have put theil case, the judge gives judgment. Justice Sankey has promised to preside over the first moot.
 This is considered to be one of the best methods of giving junior counsel an opportunity Of putting and arguing case. as we'll as gathering hints regarding pro- cedure, and pitfalls 10 be avoided when taking legal case into the glare of a public court.

Universal Service Staff Correspondent.
LONDON, Dec. 22.-Great alarm
is felt throughout London over the
extraordinary epidemic of "cat burg
laries" conducted by cleverly organized
gangs. Every part of the city where
wealth is assembled in movable form
has been successfully raided and in
practically every instance no trace
has been found of the perpetrators.
Lady Invefforth's loss of jewelry
estimated to be worth between $780,
600 and 100000 transcends in mag
nitude all other thefts and has led
to a public cutlery for more efficient
police protection.
INSURANCE GOES UP
Gangs have been working success
fully in the Kensington and Mayfair
districts and looted four houses in the
fashionable Chelsea district in one
night. In one section one row of
residences were entered in night.
As consequence Of the epidemic
there has been a sharp rise in anti
burglary insurance rates.
In Southgate where a number of
wealthy men reside on big estates, the
gangs have been doing their latest

tire collection which included a dia-

Scotland Yard investigations today
