WNarvik, Norway July 28th. The Itali-

from their base ship Citta di MilanO on
Thursday night, while a great crowd as
sembled to watch, maintained silence,
broken by a few scattered Kisses. On the
other hand, the members of the Swedish
relief expedition. who are travelling to
Stockholm by the same train, were loud
ly cheered as they boarded their car. The
Italians hurried from the ship to the spe-
ciaI car reserved for them and the train
left at $50 pm. General Mobile showed
plainly the strain under which he had
been labouring. The other members of
his party appeared well, except Natalie
Ceccione, motor chief, whose leg, which
was broken in the crash of the dirigible,
was b%andaged. When lhe Cltta di Milano
arrived at the little place of Fagernes,
about 2 miles from Narvik the crowd
waiting on the quay ignored the appeals
of the Italian crew to take the mOOrIng
rope cast ashore. A sailor was forced to
jump from the ship to the quay to tie the
ship. Captain FilippO Zappi, navigator
of the airship, appeared on deck, intend
ing to 90 to buy some clothes. There
were hostile cries from the crowd on the
quay and he decided to remain aboard
the ship. There was a military air about
the vessel. Marines with bayOnets fixed
stood guard over the %gangplank. Gener.
al Mobile looked like man broken ply
sicaIly and mentally. He was pale thin
and stopped and his haggard face show
ed plainly the strain of worry and illness.

Greater New York area was the
scene today of an unannouneed
strike Of Members Of the Brother
hood OF Railroad and Express Clerks
employed BY the American Express
company which went into effect mt
midnight and the cause of which
was Surrounded in somewhat OF a mys-

Union claims were that between
twelve and fifteen thousand employees
had quit their places on trucks,
weighing machines and desks and as
serted the strike would be extended
throughout the country.
No official union statement on the
reason for the strike could be obtain
ed but one delegate explained that

most recent employe would be the
first to be laid off.

RELIGION
IS NECESSARY
Coolidge Tells Epis-
copal Assembly of
Influences

WASHINGTON. Oct. 10.-P1-Ad-
dressing the general convention of
the Episcopal church here today.
President Coolidge proclaimed re-
liTion 70 be necessary for the con-
tinuation Of American government
and the maintenance Of those liber-
ties and privileges which are charac-
t~eristic of American life.
ave cannot remind ourselves too
often" the chief executive said,
that our right to be free. the sup
port Of our principles Of justice. our
obligations to each other in our do
nestle affairs. and our duty to hu-
manitv abroad. the confidence in
each other necessary to support our
social ard economic relations and
finally the fabric Of our government
itself. all rest on religion.
IF the bonds Of our religious con-
victions become loCsened. the guar
antics which have been erected for
the protection of life and liberty and
all the vast body Of rights that lie
between are gone"
The present convention and other
similar organizations were taken by
Mr.. Coolidge as evidence that "these
forces of the world are actively and
energetically engaged in promoting
the spiritual advancement" of hu-
manitv.
In this country. the chief execu-
tive saw conditions which require
constantly increasing efforts for
their betterment. The problem Of
the training of the youth IF the ma
ton" he said. ais one that is now
and will be forever recurring. There
are large settlements of people in
great centers of population still
living under foreign conditions. Al
cur borders. they have never yet
really come into the United States.
I'VE have provided by our insti.
tutions for a genuine method Of
self-government. but there are many
of our people who, through indiffer-
ence or inability. are not receiving
the full benefits Of such a system.
In the midst Of a high productive
capacity and constantly expanding
material resources there are yet
those who. through ignorance or
misfortune. are not able TO p~artici-
pate TO the extent Of their deserts
in our economic progress. The forces
OF evil are constantly manifest and
their opportunities for activity en-
large with the increasing complex
ties OF our modern modes of life"
