ITALY CONTINUES
 INFORMAL PARLEYS
Appears Anxious to Start Debt
 Funding Negotiations
MAY ASK FOR SOME DELAY
But Such a Delay Would Not Apply to Interest, it is hought--Total Obligation Exceeds s2,100,- 100000.

Washington, May :S,-(AP)-Am- bassador De Martino Of Italy has cabled his government for additional information upon which to continue discussions with Secretary Mellon relative to funding the Italian debt.
 Secretary Mellon regards the visit Of the ambassador two days ago as the beginning Of actual negotiations for funding settlement. He is con- vinced that Italy is desirous of con- tinuing the conversations to q con- clusion.
 No Explicit Statements.
 While there is said 10 have been no explicit statement from the Ital- Ian envoy, the treasury understand ings Is that the ambassador will con- ttnue the discussions personally un- til stage Is reached when concrete terms can be submitted. A commis- sion from Rome is then expected by the treasury.
 It appears reasonably certain 10 officials here that Italy will ask for a definite delay in beginning pay ments under any amortization plan and that the rate of amortization to be asked will be lower than that agreed to by Great Britain. The Brit ish debt is to be liQuidated in 62 years.
 American officials do not under stand that a delay will be sought by Italy In the payment of interest.
 The Total Debt.
 The total debt is in excess Of se,- 100000, 900, so that if the Italian government commits itself on funding plan and begins the payment Of interest, the total to be funded will in no event grow larger.
 The discussion that took place at the first conference between Mir. Mel- lon and Am bassador De Martino was more for the purpose of establishing guiding principles for future con versations than for the discussion Of actual terms. The am bassador is said to have expressed a desire that the whole financial situation in Italy be pictured to the treasury and the treasury desired to hear just wNsSs the Italian government thinks it rh, safely do at this time.

FEDERAL AID IN
 MINE EXPLOSION
Eieht Bodies Already Taken From Coal Glen, N. C, Shalt
45 MEN STILL MISSING
Government Has Sent Experts to Help in Effort to Rescue Men Trappcd--Littie Hope Any Will Be Found Alive.

Coal Glen, N. C.. May 2s.-At- tempts to rescue the victims Of the explosion in the Carolina Coal com pany mine here yesterday were con- tinued today but with little hope that any would be found alive.
 A careful re-check by the time- keeper of the mine today showed that there were 53 men recorded as having been in the shaft when the explosion occurred. Of these. 27 were white men, and 26 were ne- groes. Eight bodies, five of white men and three of negroes, have been recovered. On this basis AS men remain trapped. but other estimates placed the number at between 50 and 63
 Federal Men Aid
 The rescue work today was stim- Clated by federal aid, and they were able to clear the main shaft of the mine nearly two thousand feet down. It was found, however, that an al- most solid wall of slate had closed the shaft, perhaps cutting the men behind It of from the foul air caused by the three explosions nearer the surface but at the same time effectually closing their only avenue to fresh air.
 Experienced miners were of the opinion that the men could not be extricated before tomorrow. They held no hope that any would be found alive, and mine officials also were less confident after the condi- ton within the mine had been re- vealed.

Coal Glen. ". C., May 2S.-(AP) The number Of bodies recovered from the wrecked Carolina Coal company's mine stood at eight at noon today. with approximately three score still unaccounted for as a result of an explosion yesterday.
 After damp. dread enemy of the miner, claimed their lives, if they survived the series of explosions which yesterday closed their escape 10 the surface. rescue workers de- clared. But, despite this belief. they labored no less faithfully In the ef- ford to reach their imprisoned com- rades. Throughout the night, hun dreds Of relatives of the entombed men strained against the barrier ropes surrounding the dusky en- trance to the mine.
 For hours after the disaster. hope that the Imprisoned men might still live was nurtured by the report that fresh air had ben encountered by rescue workers.
 Time after time fresh crews of rescuers replaced tired workers un- til the 1,S0n foot level had been reached without bringing evidence of the imprisoned men. The belief grew that after damp had claimed as its toll the lives which might have survived the explosion.
 Six bodies, removed at sunset yes terday, represented the sole fruit of abor of rescue workers. Mine otf- cials expressed the opinion that fifty to sixty-fve men still were buried beneath the 1500 foot level.
 Arrival Of a mine rescue car from West Virginia, whence it was order ed by the Bureau of Mines, was ex- pected 10 facilitate the work of res cue.
 Mine officials believed the men would be found in the main shaft after wall Of debris blocking the main passage way had been cleared away.
 Hospital and other relief facilities were made availab ble to care for any who might he rescued alive. A hos pi'al unit from Fort Bragg. N. C.. sent here yesterday, stood by to aid.

nurse still lives. She is Linda Rich

nurses, Linda Richards was a woman
of thorough education, great strength
OF character and wonderful perseyer-
ance. She was tall, dark, stately and
forceful. Her personality was impress

what nursing might be. 1t was she
who set out to fix it's standards in a
foundation of intelligence, education
and dignity. Her school of nurses was

VIOLA

THE practically unique occurrence
a Of an old Latin word as a modern
feminine name, without change of
spelling or significance is evidenced in
Viola. 1t is one of the few names
which has not undergone a lengthy
process of evolution from some root in
a dead language. 1t has not even sub
mitted to revival but has passed down
through the centuries as the Latin
word for violet and will remain a
feminine proper name signifying violet
to the end of time.
There are many instances of the use
of Violet in England and Scotland
There is the equivalent Yolande in
France and also Violetta. But in Italy,
where the Viola arose, there is no rec
ord of its having been used as a
proper name
The common opinion of etymologists
seems to be that it was a fanciful
name imported from Italy by Shake
speare and bestowed upon one of his
heroines in Twelfth Night" But
however 1t may be, the Viola who
loved Orsino endeared the name in

Much in West to
Appeal to Tourist

The men and women whose lives re-
volve around New York or Boston or
Philadelphia, with an occasional visit
to London or Paris or Rome, are la
mentally ignorant of the romantic
past and the almost boundless future
possibilities of their own country, is
the assertion made by Lawrence Alb
bolt in the Outlook.
The knowledge of human endeavor
and achievement derived from books,
no matter how loyal and discriminate
ing reader he may be, is not COM
parable to the incisive and effective
education which Is obtainable from
personal contacts.
No matter how vivid may be the
pictures of the Pilgrim Fathers of New
England inscribed on the printed
pages Of history, they are still merely
pictures of the dead past. In the great
Northwest one may touch shoulders
and have converse with living Pill

UHO SAID
"Man IS to man either
god or a uU0If."

p ESIDERIUS ERASMUS, the an
- thor of the above quotation, was
born at Rotterdam, Holland, in the
year 1867. His real name was Gerard
but this he changed-a practice which
was greatly in vogue in his day.
Erasmus had been left an orphan
at an early age, and the efforts of his
guardians were largely responsible for
his entering q monastery and swear
ing he would become a priest. This
determination he later relinquished
and by special dispensation from the
pope at Rome was relieved from his
monastic vows.
In the year 1492-the year that Co
lumbus first set foot on the shores
of the new world-Erasmus left his
home in Holland and, with the per
mission of the bishop of Chambray.
who was in charge of the monastery
where the lad vas living, Travelled TO
Paris. There he studied theology and
literature and there he formed ac-
quatntance with many wealthy Eng
lishmen whose instructor he became
One of these-Lord Mountjoy-was so
impressed with the monk, and became
so great an admirer of him, that he
settled on him lifelong pension.
In 1897 Erasmus accompanied Lord
Mountjoy to England, where he was
graciously received by the king and
where his learning secured him con-
siderable attention from the men of
letters of that country. Soon after
Erasmus returned to the continent and
secured the dispensation from the pope
relieving him Of his monastic VOWS.
