..Dr Hurry was progressive. He
always thought ahead of his time.
There was never a man who did
more for his hobby. Nothing too
laudatos.y could be said of him, be-
cause he persistently hung to the
idea Of advancement. He was al
ways on the spot whenever there
was an epidemic. He fought day
and night for the citizens Of Indi-
ana.
Although his life was crowded
with public work, he did not slight
his family. He was loyal and de.
voted husband and father and con.
sistent IN private life.

that the festivities had to be Cancelled

Lady Aberdeen announced at a re-
ception last night that the New York

did not know whether cancellation of
the plans had any relation to a letter
recently written here by Mrs Sara L.

NAVY TITLE FIGHT
NOW Up To WILBUR
Secretary viii Hear Both
Sides in Row Over
Staff'S Status.

Secretary Wilbur has taken under
Amusement an opinion by the judge
advocate general of the Navy that
staff officers are not entitled by law
10 the titles or rank borne by officers
of the line in the same grade
Should the Secretary issue an order
IN line with the opinion it would have
the effect OF abolishing the regulation
issued by Secretary Daniels in 1913.
which did away with the distinctions
previously existing between line and
staff and caused a connection. which
has not ceased to re-echo in Navy
circles.
Mr.. Wilbur is expected to hear
arguments from both line and staff
officers before determining his course
OF action in respect to the Judge
advocates opinion and it is possible
he may defer final action until
Congress meets and then seek legisla-
ton to settle the question definitely.
Would Cancel Titles.
Should the Navy revert to the sys-
tenn obtaining prior to 1918. there
would be pay directors instead of
admHals and captains in the Pay
Corps, ChapdlnS instead OF captains
in tile Chaplains Corps, surgeon gen
eral would replace the title of rear
admiral for the officer in charge of
the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery.
and officers in the Construction Corps
would be naval constructors.
In his decision, the judge advocate
general, quoting from numerous
statutes, holds that the use of line
titles by staff officers is inconsistent
with the statutes, that the Secretary
of the Navy may issue regulations
only that are consistent with the
statutes and that therefore the regu-
latioh promulgated by Secretary
Daniels is not legal

and strength, bringing untold honor
to the country of It's birth by that
coming. Its record throughout these
passing years has been one of constant
growth and noble endeavor.
Each of the thirty-eight national
councils is entitled TO 10 delegates to
the quinquennial convention. The dis
tances to be travelled and the heavy
expenses of transportation have pre-
vented the full quota from coming
from the smaller and more remote
countries, but as an evidence of the
remarkable interest taken in these
great meetings of the international
Council, only Victoria, of the Common
wealth of Australia, and Russia are
unrepreSented."
Many of the countries are sending
alternates as well as delegates and
large numbers of visitors, according
to Mrs. Moore. England, Canada.
Norway and the United States have
the largest delegations. France, Den
mark and the Netherlands are also
represented by large groups of inn
portant women.

Boston, Dec. 1S.-(AP)-After near
ing arguments three federal judges
took under advisement today a petition
to enjoin four Massachusetts state Of

Counsel for the petitions argued
that the law was unconstitutional and
violated the constitutional rights and
guarantees of the plaintiffs in their
daily lives" and made it necessary for
them "to conduct their business and
social lives on two theories of time"
Three judges were required to hear
the case under a law which provides
that an action in the United States
dourts to enjoin state officials from
enforcing a state law shall be heard
by two United States district judges
and either a federal circuit Judge or a

ATTACK IN SENATE

Washington, Dec. 1S.-(AP)-The
world court drew both offensive and
defensive fire today in the Senate, with
opponents laying down their first bar

Taking Up the gauge of battle
thrown down by Senators Swanson,
Democrat, Virginia, and Lenroot, Re-
publican, Wisconsin, Senator Borah of
the foreign relations committee yigor-
ously disputed their contentious that
the court was Independent of the
League of Nations and offered reser-
vations which he held to be necessary
to safeguard American interests.
These reservations were in addition
to the Ave contained in the Swanson
resolution of ratification and would
provide:
That the court could perform no
functions except those provided for in
the statute creating it unless the stat
ute is amended by unanimous consent
OF the signatory nations.
That no force or economic sanction
could at any time be employed to en-
force the DEGREES of the court.
That nothing in the statute could be
construed as requiring the United
States to depart from it's traditional
policy of non-entangling alliances
with European states or to relinquish
its traditional attitude toward purely
American questions.

Recover Bodies 4
Little Children from
Ruins of Holden Fire

Holden, Mass, Dec. 18.-(AP)--The
charred bodies Of four little children
of Mr.. and Mrs. John ]. Hoey were
recovered from the ruins of their home
late today while the mother and father
lay in critical condition at Holden
Hospital. A 16-months-old child died
at the hospital this afternoon from
burns received in the fire. bringing the
death list to five. Two other children
who escaped the flames were being
cared for by neighbors and Holden cit
liens, appalled, by the worst fire trag-
edy recorded in the history of this lit
tie town, were preparing to provide A.
nancial relief for the family.
John j. Murphy, aged father of Mrs.
Hoey. was outside of the Hoey home
early this morning when he smelled
smoke A moment later he saw the
upper part of the house in flames. He
aroused Hoey and the two children
who were sleeping on the lower floor.
Hoey tried to reach his wife and chill
dren on the upper floor but the stair
way gave way under his weight.
Rushing outside he saw his wife
with their 16 months old baby in her
arms. He raised ladder, but before
he could reach her, the fire forced her
to jump to the ground with the child
in her arms. Both mother and child
had been horribly burned as they
fought their way through the flames
to the window.
Firemen and state police who ar
rived while the rescue was taking
place made an effort to~reach the 9TH
er four children but they had been
trapped by the flames.
Mrs. Hoey was so severely burned
that little hope is held for her recov-
cry. Hoey is so affected by the shock
of the tragedy that tonight his men,
tai condition is being closely observed
and 1t is feared that he, too. may
succumb. The fire is believed to have
started from defective chimney.
