siderably depleted since the war, the
Navy Department now Is working out
plans and details for the establish
ment OF the Naval Reserve Officers
Training Corps and for the establish
ment Of units at six colleges to be
designated later. The primary OBJ
1ect is said to be to afford systematic
instruction and training to qualify
students for appointment as ensigns
in the Naval Reserve. According to
the present tentative plans, the
courses Of instruction will be open to
members of the freshman classes in
the Autumn and will continue
throughout the four years of under
graduate work. The naval subject
covered will be credited toward the
university degree.
The four-year course will be divided
into two parts. basic and advanced.
The basic course will continue
through the first two years work
and will be open only to the fresh
man and sophomore classes. The
advance courses will embrace the
final two years work, and will be open
only to students that have passed
the basic course and that are juniors
or seniors in the college or engineer
ing schools.
The law provides for a total OF
1900 students and establishment OF
the Naval Reserve units in six differ
ent colleges. This would apportion
approximately 200 students to each
college: and, since the course is for
four years, there will be about is
students in each class.

establishment OF these units is only

DRAMATIC INCIDENT AT

Thousand Soldiers Take Part in Manifestation at Grave of
 Unknown Soldier

Warsaw, June CP)--A dramatic incident following the election last Monday of Marshal Pilsudski as president of the republic, a post he declined to accept, is related by the newspaper Pbzeglad Zieozorny.
 General Corecki led a thousand soldiers to the Poniatowslly statue in Saxon Square, where Poland's un- known soldier is buried. He faced the statue, saluted and said:
 Marshal Poniatowsky: l report that the first marshal of Poland, Jo- seph Pilsudski has overtaken the supreme office by the will of the na- tion,"
 Then turning to the grave of the unknown soldiers, the general said:
 unknown Polish soldier: We come to give thee joyful tidings. The man who led thee and marked Po- lands boundaries with blood has re- ceived the supreme office of state. Forgive me for disturbing thy we'll earned rest by calling for three cheers for the first marshal of Po- land"
 Thousands gathered in the square, stood at attention as General Coreski spoke.

300 MILLION DOLLAR
 SURPLUS IS IN SIGHT
This Is About StO0,OOO,0OO More Than President Coolidge Had
 Estimated.

Washington, June 3 Pl-A sur plus of almost $3O0000,00O for the fiscal year which ends June 30, or about S100,O00,0O0 more than esti- mated by President Coolidge, is in sight on the basis of conditions of
 the treasury at the end of May.
 The treasury report made public today showed the surplus for the first Il months was sS5,000,000 more than for this period last year which was closed with a balance of S250,- 100000.
 Indications of the surplus led Sen ator Copeland, democrat, New York, 10 suggest another tax reduction to-
 day. He asked Chairman Shoot of the senate finance committee why further reduction was not in order immediately and MT Shoot said he would have a statement to make
 later
 Despite the prospect of the sur
 plus this year, Mir. Coolidge is con- cerned with next year when he feels
 the real effect of the recent tax re-
 auctions will be felt, There are indications Great Brit ain will make it's debt payment this
 month in cash for the first time
 rather than bonds which will in- crease the apparent treasury surplus about $50,00O,000. This, as will the remainder of the surplus would be .devoted to retirement of the public debt.

WHITTENORE NEAR
 END OF HIS ROPE
Also Near End Of Han8mal'S
 ROpe--SentenCe Next Week

Baltimore, Md, June GG) - Richard Reese Whittemore, bandit and convicted murderer, apparent- ly is near the end of his 19-year career of crime. He is to be sen tenced to either death by hanging, or life imprisonment next week by Judge Eugene O'Dunne, before whom he. was convicted of killing a Maryland penitentiary guard while effecting his escape from the prison more than a year ago.
 Whittemore was denied a new trial by the supreme bench of Bal timore yesterday. In the absence from the city of Edgar Allan Poe, the gangster's counsel, it is not known whether an appeal will be taken. Although, under Maryland law, passing of sentence must at any rate precede an appeal. Judge O'Dunne withheld his action until Mr Poe's return, expected early next week.
 First haled into court on a dis ordefly conduct charge at the age of seven, Whittemore finally be- came one of the country's most mo- torious underworld figures.
 Lost to sight for months follow ing his prison break here, he final ly was captured in New York, where he confessed to engineering robberies that netted his gang nearly $1,o0O,O0O. Wanted in Buff falo, however, for murder, he was first placed on trial there. When the jury failed to agree. he was released to Baltimore. Here, he was convicted of staying Robert H. Hoffman.
 In denying Whittemore a new trial, the supreme bench over ruled every point in the defend ants argument. Whittemore ad- mitted killing Hoffman, but plead cd self defense and his counsel ar gued that second degree murder was the most honest verdict that could have been returned.

Senator Tyson made an effort to retain the extra pay provisions for enlisted mechanics but the senate voted against it.
 The senate was forced to devote two hours today to farm relief Legislation. but republican leaders finally had their way and sidetrack- ed that bill long enough to pass the army aircraft program.
 Taking advantage of the parlia- lmentary situation, Senator Blease, democrat, South Carolina, refused early in the afternoon to agree 10 unanimous consent for the tempor- .ary laying aside of the farm relieT bill for the aircraft measure as had been done yesterday after the for Imer had been made the unfinished business of the senate.
 This made 1t necessary for Sena- tor McNary, republican, Oregon. in charge of the cooperative market ing-corn belt bill to begin his open ing statement on that measure. After he had proceeded for two hours amid numerous interruptions, Sena- tor Morris, republican, Nebraska, Icaled attention to the fatigue Of the Oregon senator and the senate agreed to proceed with the aircraft measure.
 In asking that the original pro
 gram of the majority leaders be
 carried out, Senator Bingham, re publican, Connecticut, explained that Senator Blease, who was not then present, had agreed not to
 press his objections against side
 tracking farm relief. Senator Blease's protest against putting aside
 the farm measure was voiced after
 the democratic leader, Senator Robinson of Arkansas, and Senator
 La Toilette. republican, Wisconsin, had expressed doubt as to whether
 there was a sincere purpose to put through real farm measure at this session.
 At plea of Senator Bingham
 that the air bill was measure of national defense, the fiery South | Carolinian replied that when the | United States adhered to the World i Court there was a promise of no
 more wars and that consequently additional airplanes were not needed.

SENATE VOTES ID
 AID AIR SERVICE
Farm Relief Measures Put Aside
 in Favor of Other

Washington, June 0P - The house bill designed to strengthen the army air service during the next five years was passed late yesterday by the senate without record vote over the attempts Of democrats to restore parts of the measure as passed by the house which were eliminated by the senate military committee. The measure now goes to conference for adjustment of diff ferences between the house and sen ate.
 The bill would authorize an addi- ton of 40S officers in the newly es- tablished lair corps 'an increase in enlisted personnel from S,4o0 to ap- proximately 15,000 whenever con- gress provides the necessary funds, and construction of 1900 planes in the five year period and as many airships, free and captive balloons as the secretary of war may deter mine to be necessary for training purposes. The cost is estimated at 40,00O,00O annually.
 The bill also would create the of flee of second assistant secretary ot war, who would be charged with the supervision of the air corps and the coordination Of its activities with other governmental agencies.
 The senate refused to limit to the air corps appointments of the major generals to be chief of the air corps, and of three rigadier-generals to be assistant chiefs. Senators Robinson the democratic leader and Tyson democrat, Tennessee, insisted on this restriction, but the senate voted B to 23, to limit the appointment c officers of not less than fifteen years of commissioned service and to those who have demonstrated by actual and extended service in the air corps that they are qualified.
