THREE-POWER ARMS
 FARLEY IS LIKELY
England, Japan and U, s. Are Concerned in Proposed Pact

Geneva. May 21 Pl-A naval re- duction conference by Great Britain the United States and Japan seems among the possible eventualities of the gathering of representatives of the nations here.
 The Japanese assert that they will advocate a three-power conference if France and Italy adhere to their reported decisions not to participate in a discussion of naval ornaments except at a general disarmament conference. Japan, it is announced, has abandoned it's previous position and is convinced that naval affairs could be handled separately.
 A three-power conference, 1t Is contended by the Japanese. could Lrame a supplementary Washington naval agreement to cover cruisers submarines and seaplanes.
 The belief is expressed here that the "fve-Gve- three" Washington naval conference powers may make further naval cuts, despite what France and Italy may do, Much in- terest is eyinced here as 10 the ideas of the United States and Great Brit ain on the Japanese viewpoint.
 Humania. Poland and Finland are standing with France, Belgium and Italy in the contention that greater security than now prevails must be had before further land disarma- ment may be carried out.

WORCESTER MANS DEATH
 UNDER POLICE PROBE

Worcester Mass, May @l tPi--J.
 Leo Mccarthy -, widely known
 milk dealer, died at City hospital
 this morning d few hours after he
 had been found unconscious in the
 roadway on Bradley street with d
 fractured skull. While police were mot ready to make q definite report
 the circumstances surrounding the lease convinced them that McCamhy was a victim of foul play. Robbery lis believed to have been the motive.
 This belief was strengthened when -physicians at City hospital reported .that the mans head injury appeared to have been caused by a club. Pc lice officials said. however, that the theory that Mccarthy may have been hit by an automobile, the driver of which sped away without revealing his identity, had not been entirely discarded. Mccarthy start ed from his home early last night to make collections from patrons of his milk route. The truck in which he made the trip was found aban- dO0e0 carry LUIS llloi lil6 d''N' |" mile from where he was found un- conscious. Two men in a taNicab found Mccarthy in the roadway. ac- cording to the report they made to
 the police. They took the injured man 10 the police station and then 10 the City hospital A roll of bills
 and some checks which Mccarthy had when he left home was not found in his clothing.

Course Is Now Set Out for
 POSt.Graduate Work

Cambridge, Mass, May 21 (R- The Harvard university engineering school will conduct metallurgical in- struction on a post graduate basis starting this fall.
 It has been considered that since fundamental knowledge of mathe- matics, chemistry, physics and min eralogv may be obtained in most col Ieges and universities, there was no longer need to continue the hitherto traditional four year undergraduate program in mctallurgy.
 In it's place the university will offer 6 one year program Of 1n- tensiyc study in either the metal lurgy of iron and steel or in non- ferrous metallurgy. The course will be open to qualifying graduates of colleges and engineering schools and will lead to the degree of master ot science in that field. A two year course, comprising the work of both branches. will also be offered, lead ing to the degree of mctallurgical engineer.
