THREE YALE MEN
 IN STRIKE MOVE
Questioned by Prosecutor as
 Possible AgitatorS

Boston, Oct 2S Mobilization in- volving more than s3,0Oo.o0o in back dividends of the Boston X Maine railroad company, brought by stockholders who refused to waive cumulative back dividends at the time of reorganization of the road. was advanced a step further toward Considera ton by the full bench Of the Massachusetts supreme court un- der a decision of Supreme Court Judge Sanderson today.
 Judge sanderSon sustained de- murrer of the company to an action brought by Helen D. Morse to com pei directors of the company to de- clare dividends to holders of pre- fcrrad stock out of surplus earnings for 1925 and 1926. The petitioners and others who owned the stock did not assent to waiving the back dividends when the reorganization plan was accepted by the stock holders
 Counsel for the plaintiffs argued that the contract entered into by the Railroad company with the pre- ferred stockholders required the di- rectors to declare a dividend on the stock out of the surplus earnings of 1925 and 1926. Railroad coun- sel contended that to do this it would be necessary to pay s3,- 100, GOO, which with undeclared divi- dends in arrears on preferred stock held by those who assented to the reorganization plan would bring the roads surplus down 10 s1,5O0,000.

zEPHYRS GENTLE
 IN WINDY CITY
NeteorOlosist Finds Chicago
 Not So Breezy"

Chicago. Ill. Oct. 2S Upt-Today's question: What place is known aS the Windy CIty?" Answer: Chi ago" But is il? Prof. Henry J. CON, chief United States meteorolo- -ist here, says Chicago Nty once have been the "Windy City" but that + is no longcr-speaking mcteorolo- SIcally. Of course.
 Chicago used 10 have winds that went "Whoo- ooo-ooo." Just like the poem says. winds that whistIed and howled: winds that lifted top-hats bowling down Michigan avenue, winds that made walking for wom- n with fluffy skirts a science and an art.
 On such winds as these Chicago rode to the nickname 'Windy City"
 Back in 1898 the average wind velocity. Mr Cox said, was 1S.4 niles an hour. Since then, however. chicago has builded upward and her Skyscrapers and tall apartment buildings have formed an aerial brcakwater
 In 1900 the velocity averaged 16,G five years later 1T was 154. Tn 1910 f dropped 10 13.2, in 1922 to 11.7 and in 1925 10 comparative calm of ln.6. Last year the average slipped up 10 i2. but 1t was not so much a difference in wind velocity, MT. Cox said as 1t was the fact that the recording instruments were trans ferrel to the wide open spaces at the University Of Chicago. Previously they had been kept atop the federal building in the Loop, surrounded by ,kyscrapers.
 Even without the skvscrapers. Mir. COX said, Chicago is no windier than any other lake city and not a bit vindier than New York. still speak ing meteoroloeically. Mir. Cox was careful to point out.
 The suggestion was made. how ever. that the designation "Windy City, was not based on meteoroIogi- c.l considerations at all.
 some old timers said that the nickname became popular shortly after the fire Of 1871 because those engaged in rebuilding "were plainly bragging about the city Of the fu- tura.''
 Those persons pointed 10 the dic- tionary for authority. In one of five definitions appears the following col loquial usage: "Windy-given to or characterized by vain or empty talk. especially given to boastinE; boast fpl. Windy city, Chicago, III, nick name"

PRESIDENT THATCHER SEES IDEAL
 IN EDUCATION FOR CITIZENSHIP"
Massachusetts Agricultural College Head Explains Vo cation Training as Distinguished From Ordinary
 Academic, Scientific and "Cutural' Learning.

cation In the several pursuits and professions of life XXX The time and practice required to give even a modicum of handicraft skill in only a few Of the practices involved in any common vocation of life would mean such narrow specialization of effort as to defeat that liberal edu- cation which is our goal and which is the education for citizenship which justifies expenditure Of public funds for its promotion.
 From my standpoint vocational education differs from ordinary academic, scientific or so-called cultural education not in standards of quality or thoroughness or de- velopment Of those attributes Of soul, mind and body which characterize the educated person; but only in the method and material used in impart- ing these desira ble characteristics and In the enhancing and dignifying Of the circumstances and surround ings of life in a given vocation."

CHANG REJECTS
 B|NGHAM'S PLAN
Chinese Leader Sees Increased Strife and Anarchy in Proposal

Peking. Oct. 2s (UP)-Any sug- gestlon working toward regional recognition of Chinese parties by the United States, as was suggested by Senator Bingham of Connecticut, was rejected emphatically and un- conditionally by Chang Tso-Lin in an exclusive interview with Karl 4 .. Bickel. president of the United Press and the United Press Peking man ager.
 proposal would be certain 10 in- crease strife and anarchy iii China and delay harmony and the creation of q unified nation.
 Chang appeared to be in the best of health-alert and vigorous. He was garbed in plaincst black silk.
 During the Tai-Pins rebellion" :" he said, 'certain governments made the mistake of conditional recogni- ton. Later they saw their great mistake. The same situation exists today"
 The generalissimo Of the northern armies dismissed contemptuously the possibility Of Chiang kai-Shek re turning 10 take command of the combined southern forces to which Chang is opposed.
 "A tea cup once broken" Chang said, "can be repaired-but it never will be strong again.
 'Chiank kai-Shek and the south ern movement similarly are smash cd and real repair is impossible. "Chang Kai-Shek is a war pro fiteer. He never was a patriot. He is reported 10 have made s200,0oo,- GOO. This way be an eXaggeration.
New Britain herald., 1927-10-28

"l am the last man to suggest in- tcrNention of foreign nations in the purely domestic affairs of China. But foreign nations must understand that the situation on the Yangtze river, created by foreign agitation, is one of international concern.
 Chang Tso-Liu emphatically de- nied the reported possibility of the extension of Japanese railroad inter- ests over the Chinese eastern rail road from Chang Chung to Harbin or other extensions of Japanese rail- roads in Manchuria and outer Mon- golia.
 You may hear that the Japanese control Manchuria. But l control ManChuria.'

Amherst, Mass, Oct. 2s.--P,- Education for citizenship" was held forth as an ideal for American col leges in the inaugural address Of President Roscoe W. Thatcher Of Massachusetts Agricultural college today
 Unfortunately" he said, there still persists in the minds of many persons the idea that the purpose of vocational education" Is to impart handicraft skill in the practice of some vocation. As applied 10 agri- culture this is said to mean that the purpose of an agricultural college curriculum should be to teach stu dents how to farm. and that if its graduates do not go immediately into the farming practice of farming their education must be at fault.
 TO my mind this trade school conception Of vocational education is wholly erroneous as applied to these institutions which are established to provide liberal and practical edu-
New Britain herald., 1927-10-28

But the amount h. took to foreign lands and now IS enjoying was enor- nous.
 Americans must understand that Chiang kai-Shek is no Abraham Lincoln.
 T believe ln nationalism as deep ly as any man can believe in it. but nationalism for the people, not for the benefit Of war proflteers.
 Many indications have been brought to me that the southern people are eager for peace, as under false leaders business has been strangled and all progress has been brought to a standstill.
 Our first duty is 10 restore order and eliminate communistic agitators and clashing factions.
 "No man in the world more thor oughly understands the plans Of the Bolsheviks than l. as the -commun- ists Borodin, karakhan and Joffe all came to me first with their propos- als before going to the southern
 leaders.
 They told me that after China
 they desired to penetrate the United
 States, which they felt to be their
 greatest enemy.
 "I feel that America should un-
 derstand that. and know that I am
 fighting to suppress Bolshevism." Would Restore Order "Our first duty is 10 restore order and eliminate communistic agitators and clashing factions. No man in the world more thor oughly understands the plans of the bolsheviks than l, as the communists

 "They told me that after China ! they desired to penetrate the United States, which they felt to be their greatest enemy.
 T feel that America should un- derstand that. and know that l am : fighting to suppress bolsheviks.' Chang Tso-Lin declared that i'm mediately prior to the recent Shansi uprising Feng Yu-Hsiang, Christian general among the southern or na- tionalist leaders, received s5,0o0,00O and Yen Hsi-Shan, governor of Shansi, s3,0O0,00 from a Russian source for the purpose of wrecking the Picking or northern government. "We now can prevent the Rus sians from sending Feng uHsiang war material" Chang continued. i But they still smuggle through money"
 Outlines Plans ! He declared that recent defeats { Feng Iu-Hsiang had suffered, soon would eliminate him as a factor of any force in northern Chinese af- fairs. Now. Chang Tso-Lin said, , 'eng Yu-Shiang would be forced to retreat If he was able, into kan-Su. Chang Tso-Lin regarded Wu Pei-fu as definitely out of the picture. When he was asked what had been America's greatest contribution toward the pacification of China, Chang Tso-Lin said:

REVIEW

New York. July 2.-{P)--A down.
ward readjustment of stock prices
was under way as the half year
closed, with both the rail and in.
dustrial averages slightly less than
five points below the record high
levels established a month ago, but
still about Is points each above the
levels at the beginning of the year.
June was the first month in which
the averages failed to gain over the
preceding month.
UnfavOrable business news, acc ON.
panied by a temporary stiffcning of
call money rates, was generally
given as the reason for the weeks
setback. Many stocks, however,
showed remarkable recuperative. pow
ers. Baldwin, for instance, after
selling down to 2l8 on Thursday
rallied the next day to a new high
high record for all time at 235. The
sensational rebound in that and other
stocks was believed to be due, a.
least in part. to an overcrowded
short position and limited float
ing supply.
Steel shares were inclined to
sluggishness on the announcement
that buying Of steel appeared to be
only for the barest needs and that
there was no evidence of the quick
ening in demand apparent at this
time last year. SlOss Sheffield Gulf
States and Youngstown Sheet and
Tube sagged to new low levels for
the year.
Railroad equipments were adverse
~ affected by the announcement
that Baldwin had cut operations
from 20 to 10 per cent of capacity,
and by the publication of the annual
report of the American Cor and
Foundry company, disclosing that it
was necessary to dig into surplus to
pay the common dividend.
Steady growth Of crude oil produc-
ton found reflection in the sluggish
ness Of many of the oil shares.
Amusement shares had another sink
ing spell on reports of poor cur
rent earnings.
A cut in prices on Nash cars. ac-
companied by rumors Of further
price cuts by other manufacturers,
had an unsettling effect on the mo-
tor shares. several Of which reach ed
new low ground.
