T am pico Improvements
Are Given Approval by
Public Works Department

MEXICO CITY, Sept. 27.-(Special to
The Dispatch) Plans for the improve
ment of the port of Tampico have been
approved by the department of com
munications and public work. The
plans involve the draining of the Car
pintero lagoon which touches the city
on the north and virtually cuts it off
from the mainland. The project is be-
ing backed by the state of Tamaul1paS.
A concession for this project has been
granted to a Mexican company recently
organized In remuneration for the ex-
pense involved in draining the lagoon
the company will have the right to sub
divide the reclaimed land for residential
purposes. The work is expected to start
next month.
Involved in the project is a plan to
connect the port with Neuvo Laredo
and with Matamoras with more di-
rect railway service, and also with the
motor highways. The improvements are
expected to make Tampico the most i'm
portant city of the republic.

One of the little advertised Amer
lean pilgrimages in London is to John
Wesley's chapel in City road.
The tourist automobiles miss the
little chapel Of the. famous Methodist
divine, but hundreds of foreigners
particularly Americans, seek 1t out
in the labyrinth of twisting streets
of old London. Recently the chapel
was renovated and now Is open daily
for prayer and meditation.
A Wesleyan museum has been found
in a neighboring house, where Wesley
lived and where he died on March 2.
1891, in his SSth year.

courts of the city parks, SUBURBAN

have no pennies to spare for the pur-

GIVEN IMPETUSVICE CHAIRMAN.
AT GENEVA MEET OF DEMOCRATS

GENEVA, Switzerland, Sept. 2S
(AP)-The American delegation to
the preparatory disarmament commits
sion, actively backed by the British,
obtained the passage today of a
series of instructions to sub commit
tees which are expected to hasten the
preparatory work and increase the
chances of success of the proposed
international disarmament conference
The experts attached to the COM
mission hence forth are expected 70
drop all political consideration prob
lens submitted to them and limit
their activities to technical studies.
The unanimous vote by the commits
sion came after Hugh Gibson, Amer
lean minister to Switzerland, made
a speech which evoked the delegates
applause, setting forth the stand of
the United states regards disarIna
mert. AS for criticism in the news
papers and elsewhere that the Amer
lean delegation was inclined to IN

arations for the disarmament ceu-
ference he characterized them as mis-
leading.
inion that the commission was not
misIed by the criticism, declared.
that he felt obliged to again outline
the American viewpoint. He called
attention to the statements on the
subject contained in the recen speech
of he American secretary Of state

achieve success for general limita-
ton was to deal with concrete prob.
lens in direct practical way.

BETTER GOLF:
CAN DO BETTER

LONDON, Sept. 27 (AP)-The Prince
OF Wales golf is. improving, but
it could still be much better. DAN
iels, who caddies for the heir appar-
ent to the throne when he plays
ever the famous ST. Georges links at
Sandwich, is authority for the state
ment
Daniels says Wales gets along
nicely with the wood, frequently MAX
ing magnificent shots with them.
But his short game is somewhat
''scratchy." The Duke of York is
considered by the caddy a steadier
player and more likely to turn a
better medal round at the honorable
and ancient game than his elder
brother.
Wales is qualified for membership
in the great fraternity of average
golfers. He is satisfied when he
breaks 100 over a full course. He
has been known, however, to finish
is holes in the early nineties and
to have been very proud of his work.
The chief difficulty of the Prince
is in making his mashie behave when
about 100 yards of the cup. Daniels
says only practice will remedy this
weakness, but that the Prince is u
very human young man and would
rather play a round with friend
than devote the little time he has
for golf to dull practice.
The old home in Brampton, Hunt
ingdonshire, of Samuel Pepys, the
famous diarist, is to be taken over
by the Samuel Pepys club and saved
from ruin.
Lord Sandwich, the owner, has Of
fered to lease the place for five
pounds year, on condition that il
will be maintained in good repair.
There is nothing of the grand Eng
lish country house about Brampton
establishment, but Pepys looked for>
ward to peaceful retirement there.
1t was in the garden of this house
that Pepys buried his money when
England feared the coming of the
Dutch. When the danger was passed
Pepys retrieved it all but 20 or 80
gold pieces and rejoiced greatly.

Mussolini is cleaning house. Fas-

is not altogether pure of mind and
