MODERN HAT INTERFERES
WITH MOSLEM PRAYERS
Order Requiring Covered Heads
Makes Touching of Floor With
Forehead Difficult.

BY the Associated Press
CONSTANTINOPLE, June 1.-The
law on the compulsory wearing Of the
hat in Turkey is conflicting with the
traditional Moslem prayers.
Religious usage has required that
the heads of those who enter a mosque
should remain covered. wThe visorless
fez did not interfere with the genu-
fections which demand the repeated
touching Of the forhead to the floor.
but with the hat this ritual is we'll
nigh impossible.
Consequently worshipers are using
the expedient of taking off their hats
when they enter a mosque and of i'm
medlately tying on their heads large
handkerchiefs or nightcaps. The di-
rector of religion said the Moslem re-
llgion does not demand that the head
be covered during prayer, however.
and that this is merely a tradition
which should be stamped out.

VIENNA, June 1.-Jugoslav opposi-
ton has been aroused because the
trade agreement with Italy contains
an unusual clause making ratification
unnecessary. Simple acceptance by
both governments makes the treaty
valid.
The Democratic newspaper Politika
warns against a false friendship with
Italy. It says that Italy Is systemati-
cany infiltrating into the Balkans.
Gen. Trif1niftich the Jugoslav min
lister of war. says in the Skupschtina
that Jugoslavia should protect her
Adriatic interests, and pointed out the
necessity of a Jugoslav fleet.
The Cera Agency quotes Second For
eign Secretary Markovitsch as saying
that the trade treaty is to the mutual
advantage of the two countries and is
based upon reciprocity, Italy being the
market for one-third of Jugoslavia's s
exports.

NATIONS BLAMED
FOR DRUG TRAFFIC

GENEVA, June 1.--Following an
appeal by Arthur Woods, former
police commissioner Of New York.
that the League of Nations opium
committee lay aside diplomatic and
adopt police methods in combating
the world drug traffic. members of
the committee indulged in a frank
expression Of opinions.
Chairman Bourgeois of France en-
tertained a motion to exclude spec
tatorS when reports on Illicit drug
ira tfic involving japanese and Dutch
citizens were presented. Sir Malcolm
Dclvicne of England and NJ. Dinichert
OF Switzerland protested vigorously
against the abolition of publicity
which hitherto has been permitted.
Japan Pleads Ignorance.
Sir Malcolm requested an explana-
tion from the Japanese government
as to what it is doing to suppress
the traffic in cocaine and heroin. The
japanese representative, Sugimura,
replied it was impossible to trace ship
ments to their source.
The quantities reported here
could not he purcha sed anywhere
without conniyance by the manufac-
ing to hundreds of ounces bearing
japanese labels which had been
seized in China. ANY system of
control which permits such immense
amounts to be shipped ont isn't salts,
factory 1t simply cannot happen
without being known"
Counterfeit Held Possible.
Mr.. Sugimura suggested that SNUG,
Clers might have counterfeited the
Japanese labels while DR.. AnSelino of
Germany said that similar trickery
had brought Germany into disrepute
as TO its drug traffic.
IF the countries would put into
effect the international obligations
they have assumed. the drug traffic
could be stopped absolutely" declared
Sir John Campbell of India.

There has already passed the Sen

ton to the big print shop. This is the

New Structure Needed.

The Public Buildings Commission
has pretty well decided that increa sed
accommodation must be provided for
the Government Printing Office. In
his annual report the public printer
impressed Congress with the very
serious need for u new tircproof build

lie printer has still further stressed
the dire need for accommodations. II
the addition on the old Yale Laundry
site is approved il will mean also
a new building on II street little
later on as part of the public building
program.
The old building, part of which was
erected 20 years ago. is not only Il
very dangerous fire risk. but is also
wholly INADEQUATE for storage pur-
poses and the rapidly increasin" work

this office is so essential to the proper

Another strong Team

Rockne, by the way, appears to
have another strong eleven this year.
While whipping little Beliot was, of
course, no outstanding feat, the fact
that Notre Dame ran up such a NAM
moth score, proved Knute must have
something in the way of an offense.
The defeat of Minnesota was
especially noteworthy. The Gophers
this fall look like one of the best
teams in the Western Conference.
That's saying quite a bit, too, for
there are several really strong outfits
in that circuit this season. Rockne's
boys completely outplayed the Spears
aggregation, though the victory was
costly, two Notre Dame players being
put out for the rest of the campaign
Just what Rockne and his charges
will be able to accomplish against
the Army, Georgia Tech, Southern
California and the rest is problem
atical. They may sweep aside all
opposition. And then, again, they
may not. Whipping nine pretty good
outfits on successive week ENDS is
no small assignment for the best
eleven in the game.

men to drag it into the shade.

clared the deer to be the largest they

Speaking of tough football sched-
ules, don't overlook that mapped out
for Knute Rockne's Notre Dame foot
ball eleven this fall. It's as hard q
list of games as any school has
carded.
After taking on Beloit and Mime
sofa in the two first starts, the South
Bend team meets Penn State, North
western, Georgia Tech, Indiana, West
Point, Drake, Carnegie Tech and tops
off the campaign with a Dig inter-
sectional battle at Los Angeles
against Southern California
From the Minnesota brush right
through to the end of the chase,
there's scarcely a soft spot on the
schedule. Furthermore, Notre Dame's s
program calls for five games away
from the home lot with trips to
both coasts
Tough football programs are moth
ing new to Rockne and his partim-
ers, however. Year after year the
South Benders tackle as formidable
a gang of opponents as any team
In the country. More than that,
Notre Dame does much of it's play
ing on foreign fields. It's mileage
each fall is far in excess of that of
most teams.
