Meat Eating Endorsed By Stanford Scientist

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Cal, Aug. 25 [Pt,-Prof. James R. Slonaker, of the physiology department at Stan ford University, has emerged from eight years experimenting with the conviction that meat eaters as com pared with vegetarians will live long, CT, have more children and be of more hardy physique.
 Prof. Slonaker confined his labora- tory research to 40 pairs of white rats but he said that the conclusions he reached coincided with reports of the results of restricted diet on people in many localities during the World War.
 He divided the rats into two equal groups, feeding one set an ordinary diet, including protein, the other the same diet minus the protein.
 He found that withdrawing meat from the rats diet caused males to weigh 5 per cent less than those fed meat, the females 28 per cent less.

Wyoming First Claciated
 State, Ceologist Believes

ROCK SPRINGS, Aug. 8 (P)-In the opinion of c. J. flares of Denver, a noted oil geologist, Wyoming was the first section of the country to be covered by the great ice sheet which ages ago surged down from the north.
 He considers that the glaciation of Wyoming occurred in the mid-tertiary period, whereas the ice sheets filled the rest of the country in the Pleis- tocene age The glaciation of Wyo- ming was millions of years before the present great rivers of the Rocky mountain region began to flow.
 Two centuries of tertiary glacia- tion in Wyoming are known" MT. flares reported to Western scientific bodies. The ice must have been ap- proximately 5000 feet thick and it probably moved forward at the rate of three feet year, taking more than 100000 years to spread over the cen tral and southern parts of the state, where it left it's most apparent traces.
 The tertiary glaciation undoubted- ly occupied a very long time in geolo- gic history. It marks a profound change in the climatic conditions of that period"

Noted Windjalnrner Ends
 Career As a Fishing Barge

NEWPORT, Cal, Aug. 25 (P)-The final chapter in the romantic career of the three-masted schooner Muriel is written on the sands of the beach at the entrance of the harbor here, where the battered hulk of the craft, once proud figure in the Pacific Coast commerce of windjammer days, lies hopeless wreck.
 Since her launching at Alameda, Cal, more than 30 years ago, the Mu- riel has established an enviable re- cord among sailing ships on the sev- en seas, particularly in her fast pas sages while engaged in the copra trade in the South Sea islands. She was once ranked with the finest and most stately sailing ships of the Pa ciflc and the waterfronts of the coast heard tales of romance and adventure woven about her by scores of grizzled seamen.
 Of late she had been serving in the moving picture navy where venerable ships enact strange roles before the grinding cameras, but at length the world of make-believe also turned it's back on the Muriel
 A Respondent waif of the sea, she was recently stripped of her masts, and lowed beyond the breakwater to serve as a fishing barge, but a final heave of groundswell parted the cable and the Muriel rode proudly

DANZIC OFFICIAL SAYS
 POLISH POSTB0XES IN
 HARBOR UNNECESSARY

DANZIG, Aug. 25 (P)-There is no economic, commercial or business reason whatsoever why Poland should have her own postboxes in the har- bor of Danzig, in the opinion of Pres ident Heinrich Sahm. Explaining the so-called postbox conflict further for The Associated Press, Dr. Sahm, popularly known as "the tallest presi- dent of the smallest state in northern Europe" said:
 Under the treaty of Versailles the right is given to Poland to maintain her own postboxes in the harbor of Danzig. Mail arriving in Danzig and intended for Poland can be handled as eXpeditiously by us as it can be handled by a Polish postoffice in the port.
 What we chafe under particularly is the implication that Danzig is on plane with Chinese cities like Shanghai where the foreign residents have their own facilities because the native are not or have not been, ade- quate. Danzig is proud Hanseatic town which resents such an imputa- tion of inefficiency."
 A further complication in the post box question arises from Poland's contention that by the term, "harbor of Danzig" is meant the whole city. The Danzigers hold-and in this they have been sustained by the British high commissioner assigned to Dan- zig by the League of Nations to arbi- trate disputes between Poland and Danzig that the term was intended only to include the port proper.

BOAT OF LATEST TYPE.
Was Launched in 1921. and Ranked
With Largest

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, September
26 OP).-The submarine S-51. sunk off
Block Island, was built by the Lake
Torpedo Boat Co. OF this city, was
launched September 20, 1921. and was
the latest submarine of that class built
by the company. The S-51 was 240
feet long, 21 feet 10 inches in breadth,
mean draft of 13 feet 6 inches, and
had displacement OF s93 tons. Her
battery consisted of five 21-inch tor
pedo tubes. four forward and one aft.
She was equipped with submer-
sible radio equipment and had two
Diesel engines. each driving a twin
screw with $50 horsepower behind it.
When submerged the submarine was
propelled by an electrical engine of
equal power.
The S-5l, If operated at full crew
strength. would have had officers
and 38 men aboard.
Simon Lake, inventor of the even
keel type OF submarine OF which the
four 81 boats built at the plant of
the Lake Submarine Co. were the
finest examples, was visibly affected
today when informed OF the disaster
which had overtaken the S-61.
The S-51 was the last subma rine
built at the Lake plant in Bridgeport"
he said 1T was the very last word
in submarine boat construction and
was equipped with electrical devices
that permitted the men in the control
room to detect the approach of a
teamship when the submarine was
running submerged. The purpose of
these electrical sound.detecting de-
vices was to give the men in the con-
troll room an opportunity to change
their course If they found that
another vessel was bearing down upon
them"

in the Summer of 1922.
The hearing OF the case before
Judge Frank limerick at Alpena early
this year was interrupted to permit
both sides to obtain additional data,

The testimony was fringed with
stories of liquor drinking and gam
bling parties at Washington, and the
names Of several Congressman or for
mer Congressman were heard.
On the congressional trip to Pan
anna aboard the steamer Cristobal
Mrs. Scott charged that her husba nd
and other Congressman gambled and
drank. There was testimony that a
quantity of liquor was taken aboard
the steamer at Panama, and that
what was not consumed was unload
ed from the boat at Norfolk, Va, and
taken to the Washington homes Of the

some of the liquor went to the Scott
apartment, although Mr.. Scott denied
this.

miral Hutchinson said that it had
found no basis for charges against
any one in the band.

LAWYER FILES SUIT
FOR $1,000 IN FEES

Abner Siegal, attorney, yesterday
filed suit for $500 against Jerry c.
South and Louis Little, attorneys, and
the firm of W. B. Hibbs & Co.. deposi-
tary, alleging this amount is due him
for services to South.
In his declaration Siegal states that
South agreed if Siegal would intro
duce Little to him and -"cause Little
to retain" South as counsel for certain
clients, South would pay Siegal one
third of all sums for retainers and
fees from such arrangement.
Siegal states he did so. He adds
that Little deposited $1,000 with the
Hibbs firm with the proviso that ST.
500 be passed to the account, Of South
Immediately as retainer. leaving $4,000
as a balance. OF this balance 5000
was permitted to be used for necessary
expenses and the remainder, $4,000, is
still in the hands of the depositary,
which should be turned over to South,
according to the plaintiffs declaration.
The suit is to recover $1,000 Of this
balance. which, it is alleged, the Hibbs
firm refuses to turn over without Lit
ties order.

peared in the Langley case, in which

SHIP CAPTAIN CRITICIZED.
Should Have Stayed at Scene, in
Wilbur's Opinion,

The steamship City of Rome should
nave remained on the spot, unless
urgently impelled to leave after ram
ming the submarine S-51 last night,
Secretary Wilbur declared today.
The conduct of the captain Of the
CITY of Rome. the Secretary added,
would be inquired into in connection
with the investigation that would
be ordered. and if it was found that
there had been any criminal act or
negligence on his part action would
be taken against him.
Assumed All Lost
Apparently the City of Rome, when
she saw the submarine go down, re-
garded all on board as lost, he said,
whereas such is not necessarily the
case with a submarine.
Reports from the steamer indicated
to him that the three survivors are
injured, and the captain of the City
OF Rome may have felt that it was
his duty to get the men to shore as
soon as possible. He has informed the
Navy that the men should be placed
In the naval hospital at Chelsea,
Mass, just outside of Boston.
The Navy is proceeding on the
theory that there are men alive on
the submarine.

TURK ARMY READY
FOR BRITISH MOVE
Delegate to League Warns
Britain-Sees State of
War Now.
BY tho Associated Press.


LONDON, September 2S.-The state
ment that Mosul Is Turkish and that
the Turkish army. the peace strength
of which is 10000 is prepared to en-
force this claim In warfare, is attribut-
ed to Ruchdi Bey, head of tho Turkish
delegation to the council Of the League
Of Nations. The correspondent of the
Daily Express in Geneva quotes tho
Turkish statesman as announcing that
it is the determinat ton Of his country
to possess this province in Mesopo-
tamia, rich in oil lands, and to repudi-
ate the British claim that 1t must be
given to the Kingdom of Irak
Ruchdi Is said to have complained
bitterly that lrak troops recently made
incursions into Mosul across the So
called Brussels line Of the frontier and
thereby involved the loss of many
lives.
IF British troops enter tho disputed
territory, they will be repulsed, -
Ruchdi Is quoted as having said
When asked whether he considered
that a sort of state OF war already ex-
listed between Turkey and Great Brit
ain, the Turkish delegate replied,
vaguely: Naturally we will repulse
any invasion Of Turkish territory. II
you call that war"
Ruchdi said it depended entirely on
Great Britain whether there would be
war.
Fear that the tense situation over
Mosul might result in a clash at arms
between Turkey and Great Britain
frequently has been voiced both here
and at Geneva. especially since the
council of the League of Nations on
September 19 passed to The Hague
Court certain points involved In the
dispute, thereby delaying a settlement
of 1t for at least three months. This
fact caused irritation and regret
among both parties to the dispute, and
was widely regarded as endangering
an ultimate agreement Ruchdi Bey
left Geneva for Angora yesterday. 1t
remains to be seen whether his gov
ernment will back up the statements
he is reported 10 have made before
his departure.
Whatever danger there may be of an
outbreak of fighting seems to lie for
the moment in the question how far
the local commanders are able to con-
troll their forces. The Irak troops,
under British officers. are on one side
Of the frontier faced closely by
Turkish troops on the other side. Ex-
perience too often has shown that in
sum vi nave a way
of going off of themselves. with re-
sultant hostilities.
It seems that the local situation in
Mosul has been heightened by charges
and counter-charges OF the ill-treat-
ment Of natives. These charges al
ready have been brought to the notice
of the council of the League of Ma
tions at Geneva and are to be a sub
ject Of investigation by a representa-
tive of the league.

tip Of Block Island, and the depth Is
129 feet, the S-51 had bulkheads to
withstand pressure at 200 feet.

the coming tower and the stern. De-
clartng the three men rescued were

serted 1t was entirely possible the
bulkheads were holding with men in
other parts of the ship. where they
might remain for several days with
the oxygen apparatus and other equip
ment at hand.
One man was rescued from O-5 Pan
anna several years ago after being
down three days.
Lights May Have Been On.
1t was pointed out by officials that
the S-51 might have had her lights
showing, and that the City Of Rome
did not see them. They assumed
that visibility was good because the
bearings given by the City OF Rome
were from shore lights several miles
away. Such bearings are often in
accurate, Secretary Wilbur said, and
for this reason he believed 1t would
have been desirable for the City of
vaging craft to the scene. r
Records show that the heaviest loss
of life previously sustained by the
American Navy in submarine dis
aster was on March "a, 1915. when rs
were lost in the sinking of the F-4 off
Honolulu The exact Cause of the F-4
loss never was definitely determined.
Seven Accidents Listed.
Apart from the sinking Of the F-4
the records show seven submarine ac-
cidents. all In the last six years. The

mooring on the West Coast. with the
loss of three men. The HI on March
"a. 1920. ran on the beach at Magda-
lena Bay, with the loss of one officer
and three enlisted men.

Dor channel. without loss OF life. and
the So, the same year, was in collision
with a destroyer at Chefoo. China
without loss OF life. The O-5. on Octo-
Der 29 1923. was In collision with a
