BROADER SCOPE
 FOR EDUCATION
Govt. Surgeon General Gives
 Advice to Schools

Washington. May IT (UP)-The United States public health service today called on educators and par onts to give frank, fearless and hon. est sex instruction to children from kindergarten through college.
 A symposium of sex education, prepared for teachers and made pub lie by Dr. Hugh s. Cumming, sur geon- general, asked for elimination Of adult taboos, fear. false modesty and shame which were declared to have dominated the situation too long.
 Most adults think in terms of i'm moralities and sexual abnormalitics. on terms Of disease and personal eX- perienccs, and in consequences have had difficulty recognizing and ap- preclating the value of the normal. hcaIthful phases of the subject" the symposium said.
 Sex education does not call for stress upon vice or Niciousness, up- on prostitution or illcgitimacy. upon psychologist theories Of he neuroses or aught else that need inhibit the pedagOgic approach of the subject.
 Sufficient knowledge for all the undesirable clements now abound,' it continues. sex education is means of approaching these present day problems of youth ill terms Of sex cSthetlcs sex ethics. and sex morality in terms of emotional con- trol and intellectual responsibility or social livlng.'
 Dr. Cumming said America must brush aside the prudish attitude which prevailed toward sex educa- lIon. He recommended that schools make provision for instruction on human reproduction and personal hygiene.

FILIPINO REVOLT
 WIPED AT START
Arrest of 'Insane Emperor
 FruStrat@ Plots

Manila, May r P - A reign of
 fear and business tie-up in two
 provinces as result of the recent
 uprising by followers of the insane
 Flor Intreacherado. "emperor of the Philippines" testified today to the far flung plot which had been laid among the natives for eventual seizure of the entire archipelago.
 The constabulary report received here said the revolt left many ha- ciendas in Iloilo and occidental Ne gros provinces without laborers and that serious stoppage Of business resulted. Rumors that certain of the ringleaders who escaped arres. may attempt to prevent removal Of Intrencherado to Manila for con- tinement In an insane asylum have caused terror. Many natives are staying indoors. The reports also indicated that an attempt would be made to free the 5s persons ar rested in the outbreak.
 Confessions from many of those under arrest have revealed that t first was designed to seize the pro- vincial government of lloilo. Some what less definite arrangements were made for taking over the whole Of Panay and Negros islands. two of the more sizeable areas Of the Philippines.
 Many of the prisoners admitted plottings to kill municipal officials and take possession of their towns for Intrencherado. Policemen were to have beeen disarmed and promi- nent citizens captured and their wealth distributed among the h. followers.
 In the event that these plans had been successful, 1t was planned to proclaim Intrencherado emperor of the Philippines and to extend his realm later to embrace the whole of the Malay archipelago. Organiza- ton to carry this out had been formed in a dozen towns.
 Policapario Montarde. one of h. trencherados leading lieutenants and the actual leader of the recent uprisings, still is at large and a of constabulary has been sent to find him.
 Although the supreme court order for taking h. to the insane asylum had not arrived at Iloilo. where the i emperor" resides, a dispatch to the Manila Tribune says the court 1 of first instance in 1loilo has or dered him surrendered to the au-
 horities for confinement here.
 The move to send Intrencherado | o the asylum precipitated the first ! which was felt in four owns. Intrencherado, although l playing part of an "emperor' was unaware of the outbreak at he time and has not been impli- catcd directly. He had indicated a to go to the asylum but his followers insisted on his re- at Iloilo.
 Another dispatch says Governor Wood. who is touring in that vicinity, arrived at llolio and Intrencherado to visit him aboard the governor generals yacht Apo to discuss the grievances of his followers, but that 1n- followers. fearing a plot to kidnap him. refused to al- low the "emperor" to go aboard. and in his place sent a woman friend of the leader and his broth er-in-law.
 General Nathorst. commander of the constab abulary, has ordered Colonel Guillermo Francisco. com mander in the Nisayan district to investigate the entire situation.

.FRU|TLESS SEARCH
 FOR LOST PLIERS
But Hunt for Nung@Ser and
 Coli Continues

Ottawa. May 17 Rr-Unfavorable weather condition in Cabot Straits, lying between Canada and New foundland, continued today 10 im- pede government boats searching for the missing French tiiers Cap tains Nungesser and Coli.
 The Mukula and Montcalm re ported to the Department of Marine and Fisheries today that no trace of the airmen had been found in their patrol of waters bordering the Nova Scotia shore and Newfoundland.
 4 similar mo information" re- port today has been received from government radio stations along the Atlantic sea border.
 New York. May IT P-After a week Of search. hope and false re- ports. the world today knows as much of the fate that has befallen Captains Charles NungeSser and Francois Coli as it did Monday q week ago when the intrepid French aviators failed to reach New York on their nonstop flight from Paris. But the search goes on. The bleak shores of Newfoundland continue 10 he combed for some trace of the Nungesser plane in response to sev- cral reports that sounds of an air plane were heard over parts of the island on that foggy Monday morn- ing, but so far no definite word has come from any Of the coastal vil- lages. However vain the search has been to date, it will be continued until every bay and cove of the is- land has been visited.
 The principal remaining hope, however, was that the White Bird was forced to descend off the grand banks and that Nungesser and Coli Were picked up by some fishing ves- sci. In such an event it would be a matter of days before any word could be received. Any vessel that may have rescued the flyers, it is believed, would not return to port until it's fishing work had been com- pleted.
 Not Same Plane
 From London came a report that for time tended to change the en- tire complexion Of the mystery, tell ing that a German steamer had found an airplane. believed to be French. in the North sea. The Havas News Agency later announced that the committee which backed the Nungesser flight stated that markings on the plane found in the North sea were not those of the White Bird.
 From Paris also has come an- nouncement that the International League of Aviators has voted to erect a monument in memory of Nungesser and Coli. The monument will be placed on the cliffs above the town Of Etretat over which the plane flew as it left French soil and started across the Atlantic.
