eiety of Fine Arts. Miss Leila Mechlin.
in her annual report called attention to
the fact that Washington lags behind
other cities in educational work of this
sort. She said: When are We going TO
have in Washington genuinely art
loving public? We must begin with the
children IN our public schools, The love
Of art must be early cultivated among
them. Our art museums are not richly
endowed II this work is to be done. it
must be done through the cooperation
Of other organizations such as ours.

nered by two State troopers who
sought him for the murder of Marie

orator, Harry McHugh shot and

ROME, March 29.-Negotiations
between the Vatican and the Mus
solini cabinet for adjustment of the
5S-year-old dispute between the
church and the state have been
halted by the sharp exchanges De-
tween the Pope and Premier Mus
solini, it was learned from an au'
thoritative source today.
The negotiations, which had been
described as unofficial" were un-
dertaken following the publication OF
suggestions in the Osservatore Ro'
mano, official organ of the V1tlcan,
that the controversy might be set
tied.
The first intimation of rift in
the conversations came with the
speech of Pope Plus XI before the
Rome diocesan board in which ne
criticized policies of the Mussolinl
government The crux of the con-
trOverSy is the education of Italian
youth and the authority Of the
church to organize associations OF
Italian boys for religious and citi'
Zenship training"
Premier Mussolini, in his reply to
the pontiff's criticism, intimated that
the Fascist organization might as
sumo a monopoly" in the educa-
ton of youth so that they could be
grounded in the principles OF fascism
almost from the cradle"

substantial majority.
In its new compromise form, the
bill differed considerably from the

into former relief bills, but in such
an amended form that its authors
hope to secure Presidential APP

agricultural depression, due to huge
SURPRISES.

 New Britain suffered its first de- feat in the second round of the league last Monday night at the hands of Waterbury. The local quin- tet started out with a rush but its attack petered out and the Brass City outfit came through with flying colors.
 It has been years since Hartford and New Britain came to death grips on the hockey rink and the revival of the ancient feud Thursday night will allow for no let-up by the To- calls. If there is anything local hockey fans want. it is a victory over Hartford and Fred Jean and his mates are in for plenty of the stuff that "Red" Donnelly got last Mon- day night.
 The unusual spectacle of Jean playing for Hartford when years ago such thing was unheard of, makes the game here Thursday night one of the features of the season. Jean passes from the position of the most beloved of old-time hockey fans to that of being "poison to New Brit ain" because anything pertaining to Hartford in the sport world Is aa bad aa that to the Hardware City.
 The usual preliminary game feat uring Harry Kieffer and his Paw nees, will be staged ayS o'clock. The main feature will take place about '9 o'clock.
