PARIS, Oct. 9-"The proposition
of Alderman Fiquet to permit mixed
bathing in municipal baths" says
PIntransigeant, has had an effect
similar to dropping a paving-block
into a frog pond" At the present
time the municipal baths have
separate hours for men and women.
The Intransigeant means to say
that the Paris prudes have jumped
in Indignation. Several papers have
taken up the mixed bathing cause
for NJ. Fiquet, the Paris Soir re-
marking that there is no reason
why men should be shocked at
the abbreviations of a woman's
bathing suit.

bare flesh is seen at the Opera

Others point out that mixed bath

AINUNDSEN HAS
POLAR FLIGHT
PLANNED
VIII Sail in Refitted DirigibIe
in Search for New Land

NEW YORK, Oct. 9.-Undaunted
by the failure of his airp1ane ex'
petition, Captain Road Amundsen,
famous European explorer, viii
make another attempt next spring
to explore the North Polar regions
from the air-this time with
dirigible. He made known his pur-
pose today. when he arrived in
New York on the Mauretania, to
commence a lecture tour OF the
principal American cities.
An Italian airship. renamed the
Norge, has been acquired by the
intrepid arctic voyager and is De
ing made ready for the perilous I'M
dertaking. Lincoln Ellsworth, Cap
tain Amundsen's American CO.
leader on the recent unsuccessful l
flight, will go with him and they
will have a crew of eighteen men.
Ship Is Readied
The Norge, which at first was
offered the explorer free by the
italian government il he would fly
the Italian flag, but which was
sold to him alta nominal price
when he declined, is being refitted
with German engines in place OF
the Rolls Royce motors with whicn
it is equipped. Other changes IN
construction are to be made.
Hydrogen will be the lnIlatlon
medium, nelium being scarce In
Europe. II is planned to have
the Norge sail from Rome some
time in May, take on gas and sup
plies a. Fulham, England, and then
point her nose in the direction OF
Spitzbergen, the hop-off point.
Captain Amundsen was met at
quarantine by a welcoming COM
naittee. headed by Ellsworth, the
Norwegian consulate officials and
other prominent individuals. An
escort of police accompanied him
to HIS hotel.
His arrival was hailed as partic-
l,larly appropriate today, this being
the centennial of the entry OF the
first large batch of Norwegian I'M
mig, ants INTO the United States
Not for North Pole
The explorer, robust and rudy,
told newspapermen his expeditions

BOMBAY. Oct. 9.-Bolshevization

Officials are frankly worried, lest

The end of the war found India
in a better position than ever with

The menace of Russian invasion

Indian government.
Officials are convinced the red
