ARSENAL AT DOVER
HELD TOTAL LOSS
Admiral Gregory Says Value
of Salvage Will Be Offset
by Cleanup Cost.
special Dispatch to The Star.


DOVER, n. j., July 24.-The ord
nance depot at Lake Denmark must
be considered a total financial loss,
Rear Admiral Luther A. Gregory.
Chief of Naval Bureau OF Yards and
Docks, today told the Naval Court of
Inquiry inducing the evidence in the
disaster of July 10, which cost many
lives.
''In estimating the cost Of recon
structing a large portion Of the plant.
no allowance should be made for sal
wage value of material now on the
Site" he said.
He explained that the cost OF clean
ing up the depot will offset the value
of the salvaged material. Naval
board officers said the same situation
held true of salvaged munitions which
places the aggregate loss at ISL 1886
900 of which 1886, 900 is the valua-
ton of the depot buildings.
Admiral Gregory told the court of
inquiry that Naval experts are unable
to agree upon a lightning protection
system that would be considered, al
though experiments by large electrfca
corporations have been watched care
fully by the Navy.
A correction was made in the
records regarding the Iona Island
Naval Munition depot in the Hudson
River, which was given a valuation
of $211 900, 900. The correct value
was announced as S11, 000, 900.

WAR ON BULL FIGHTING.

PARIS, July "a OLA Fronde. a
Paris Daily written by women for
women, has undertaken crusade to
abolish bull fighting in France by
strengthening the law against cruelty
to animals. The paper would make
penalties such that no one would az
tempt to organize the spectacles. and
would confscate the receipts when
ever a fight was held.
The popularity of bull fighting III
the south of France is scarcely rear
lied outside of the country, as 1t is
generally believed that the sport Is
limited to Spain. Thousands of per
sons, however, attend many bull
fights every Sunday. The French
claim that these fights are not as
cruel as those staged in Spain.
La Fronde is not finding active sup
port from President Doumergue in its
campaign, since the French Pres
dent, a true son of the South, is
fervent supporter Of bull fights.

!. FORCOMM|SSIONER
Four Citizens Associations
Declare Eligibility to Post
Is Clearly to Be Seen.

The Cathedral Heights Citizens
Association and representatives of the
English Village Citizens Association,
the Richmond Park Citizens AsSocla-
ton and the Burleith Citizens Asso-
citation, at q special meeting held last
night, issued the following statement
The opinion expressed by men,
Der of the Thomas Circle Citizens AS
sociation last night that retired Off
GERS of the Army are not eligible for
appointment as District Commission
ers apparently was predicated on the
erroneous assumption that retired of
fiCers and active officers of the Army
occupy the same status as to citizen
ship.
Active Officer Defined.
Section 1929, r. S, prohibits Off
GERS on the active list of the Army
from holding any civil office. This
law applies only to officers on the ac-
tive list, and the Attorney General of
the United States, Court of Claims and
various United States courts have so
held The active officer is an active
member of the Army, subject to cali
to duty at any hour. It would be inn
possible for him to hold civil Office
without vacating his military office.
when an officer retires, however,
he is not subject to any call to duty
except in time of war, when the
s President, in his discretion and in
s9urtherance of national defense, may
s call him to active duty. During times
of peace a retired officer may not be
called TO active duty without his con-
sent, and is III the status of all other
citizens of the country, eligible to any
Office, State or Federal to which he
may be elected or appointed. They
have held many: they still hold many.
One of the Assistant Secretaries Of
@the Treasury. the Director of the
+ Budget the president OF the Shipping
Board are all retired officers.
HeImick Held Eligible.
Gen. Helmicks eligibility for APP
pointment as District Commissioner
EhinSes solely on whether he can by
Jaw go on the retired list of the
Army Having completed 40 years of
service, he may by law demand and
receive retirement. That fact is con-
elusive proof that he may be retired
from active military service upon his
request and establishes his supporters
contention that in retirement he be-
comes a plain citizen like all other
ritizens who are being proposed for
the appointment.
Gen. Helmick has been a bona fide
resident and householder in the Dis
frict of Columbia since 1921 and dur
5ng that time has neither voted or
claimed residence elsewhere

Pavlova Seeking
Desirable Homes
For Five Cygnets

Nine. Pavlova is advertising
for good homes for five cygnets,
progeny of the famous pair of
swans which the Russian dancer
has in the garden of her home in

Pavlova, like all other famous
toe dancers. has always been
partial to ''The Dance of the Dying
Swan" and for years she has kept
swans in the garden of her Lon
don home so she could study
their movements.

sirable homes will not be given
avav until Autumn, and will be

Railroads in Australia.

Building railroads across Australia
has been one of the monumental tasks
In that wide country. The east and
west sections have narrow gauge
lines, but the central section of
standard gauge is 1.051 miles long,
one single stretch Of 300 miles without
a hill or curve.
Water tank trains are run regularly,
as the interior is largely without
water, wells having been driven in
many places from 500 to 1000 feet
in depth in the effort to secure water
for use. but all water found was
extremely salt, so the reservoirs near
the shore provide supplies to be
hauled in to the points where needed.

Capt. Whitehurst believes that a

contain the information necessary for
the public. One of the chief objects
of the conference is to learn whether
larger signs are desirable, and if so,
how long they should be permitted to

Munitions Depot Blast.

Another subject taken up with the
President by the Secretary was the re-
cent Lake Denmark disaster, He said
he told the President that while the
amount of damage resulting from the
explosion of the munitions storehouse
at Lake Denmark is now being ap-
praised by two courts of inquiry, his
information leads him to feel that the
damage cost will be found consider
ably below the original estimate. He
stated that the civil damage to life
and property was comparatively small.
Secretary Wilbur was not inclined
to say for publication whether he
favored the proposal to have one big
central storage depot for Army and
Navy munitions.
He stated that isolation of munition
depots may have many advantages,
but he was not in a position to say
at this time whether he would urge
the abandonment of those depots and

Michelangelo, lost for 800 years,
has been found in an obscure pri-
vate gallery in Bologna. Experts
who have examined it place its
value at 100000 lire.
The owner of the gallery, Giu-

them valueless. Calling an expert
to arrange a sale, he was stunned
to learn that he possessed what
may prove to be the most valuable
picture in the world The picture
