POPE SAYS CHURCH
MUST TEACH YOUTH
Family Held Second and State Last
in Educational I'm
portance.
By the Associated Press.


VATICAN CITY, January 11.-Pope
Plus today issued new encyclical on
the education Of children, in which he
said that the church had the first
share, the family the next and the
state the last in juvenile education.
For the first time In the history Of
the papacy an encyclical was issued in
italian. It will be followed by trans
lation into other modern languages.
The encyclical was devoted entirely
to the Christian education Of youth. In
it the pontiff summarized the supreme
principal of the education of youth and
the necessity Of applying new peda-
gogic theories and practical modern
methods to that of the Catholic prin-
ciple.
The encyclical emphasized the excel
lence of Christian education, which
must be taken care Of in order to Sc
cure its perfection. Outlining the
principal points in Christian education,
the encyclical said that 1t belongs to
the churches in certain measure, to
the family In another and to the state
in still another.

CRUISER QUESTION
IS HELD UNSOLVED
U. S. Delegates Now Believe
Size and Type viii Be
Issue at Farley.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press. 80.
s. S. GEORGE WASHINGTON, Jan
uary 11.-Announcement by First Lord
Of the Admiralty A. ". Alexander In
Great Britain yesterday that his gov
eminent would consent at the forth
coming London conference to reduce
the number Of its battle cruisers from
70 to 80 created considerable interest
among the American delegation aboard
this ship today.
But it was not believed that the
British announcement would remove
British cruiser strength as live issue
from the London negotiations. The
feeling was, rather, that remaining
difficulties would have to do with size
and type Of ship, instead Of their exact
number
The french and italian situation has
been frankly puzzling, but Col. Henry
L. Stimson, American Secretary Of
State, was believed to be confident some
solution was possible and would be
found. Doubtless one Of his first con.
ferences will be with the French dele
cation head, not with the idea of medi-
alton, but in the hope of assuring that
all parties to the conference approach
1t with a conciliatory spirit.
Pleased With Pact Reference.
The American delegates are pleased
over references to the Kellogg anti-war
pact as a basis for reduction.
The Kellogg pact is regarded as an
American brain-child. It has been the
major premise Of all President Hoover's
activity toward naval Limitation and
disarmament, and First Lord Alex
ander's acknowledgment Of its poten-
tialities for peace was eminently salts
flying.
The George Washington will be
speeded up to bring the official party
to Plymouth early next Friday, 80 as to
enable the delegates to reach London by
noon. The arrangement will imply de-
barkation at an unusual hour.
It is known Col. Stimson wishes
ample opportunity to talk over the sit
uation with heads of other national
delegations prior to opening Of the con-
ference the following Tuesday.

PARROT MALADy
TAKES TWO LIVES
Eleven Cases Are Reported in
Three Widely Separated
Sections of Country.

With two dead from parrot fever and
II cases of that mysterious malady re-
ported from distant sections Of the
country, Government health authorities
are taking steps to prevent the spread
Of the disease.
The deaths occurred In Toledo, Ohio,
where Mrs. Percy o. williams sue
cumbed to the ailment, and In Balti-
more, Md, where the victim was Mrs.
Louise Schaeffer. Four additional
cases were reported from Ohio and
seven from Maryland, with uncondrmed
reports Of three more cases in the lat
ter State and one in California.
Ailment Diagnosed.
Surg. Gen. Hugh s. Cumming has
been advised that three cases In Annap-
oils resulted from contact with q re-
Gently imported parrot that had been
purchased from New York pet store,
and has informed DR.. Shirley Wynn,
the city health commissioner. Fumiga-
ton of the store is expected to ensue.
Maryland health authorities have
been asked to investigate and report to
the Federal bureau. and yesterday one
of its agents, DR.. Charles Armstrong,
called on the Annapolis patients and
said there was practically no doubt that
they were suffering from parrot fever,
known to physicians as psittacosis.
The three stricken In Annapolis are
Lee Kalmey, his wife and mother. A
number of friends were exposed to the
parrot from which the Kalmeys con-
tracted the illness and the unconf1rmed
report CT three more cases In Maryland
placed them within this group. In Bal
timore. four employees Of q pet shop
were sick with the disease.
Four Are Stricken.
At Warren, Ohio, Mr.. and Mrs. w.
w. McEntire and Miss Clody McEntire
were i'll and under quarantine, with
psittacosis and the widower of the dead
woman at Toledo was seriously III from
the same ailment.
DR.. Cumming has no fear that the
disease will become epidemic, but urges
caution. He advises that contact with
newly imported parrots be avoided as
sure means of preventing contagion.
The symptoms OF the malady are al
most identical with those of typhoid fe-
yer, but are complicated by pulmonary
disorders similar to pneumonia. The
disease Is very rare and Is believed to
be contracted only from the birds, with
little danger of contagion from individ-
ual to individual.

BRAND Asks Disarmament
Treaty to Bring Peace
To Nations

GENEVA. Sept. u. -tF-Tne
Anglo-Saxon and the Gallo points
Of view about the best way to in

of Nations assembly today with no.
thing TO indicate that the gulf be-
tween them was any narrower than
ii has always Deen.
The cleavage. visible frequently
since the World War, has appeared
this time In the addresses Of Artist
ide BRAND, French foreign minister,
and Arthur Henderson. British
foreign secretary, before the league
assembly.
M. BRAND, in an address lacking
much OF the ~oratorical force with
which he usually defends his pro-
lects, pleaded for a federation OF
European states, within the frame
work Of the League of Nations. in
volving an economic and political
collaboration, and disarmament pre-
ceded by guarantees Of mutual Sc
curity.
MIR. Henderson advanced the
Anglo-Saxon viewpoint that peace
is best assured through disarm-
ament.
I'm our profound belief" he said,
security and disarmament are
closely interlocked and nothing can
make cur peoples truly safe from
war until a treaty Of general dis
armament has been made. Security
Is impossible if competitive military
preparations continue as they are
going on today. After all. there Is
none of us who in his heart does
not know that of all security mea-
sures disarmament IS in itself the
most important"

President ~Irigoyen's
Whereabouts Mystery

BUENOS AIRES. Sept. 12.-lP-
Mystery today surrounded the
whereabouts Of Hipolitto Irigoyen,
deposed Argentine president who
yesterday, III and feeble, was placed
aboard a warship at La Pita and
presumably started toward a place
OF exile.
1t was learned today that the
Uruguayan consul cabled his gov
eminent at Montevideo yesterday
that the cruiser. General Belgra-
no. had sailed for Montevideo with
the former president aboard.
Preparations were made in the
Uruguayan capital to receive him
last night, president Campistiguy
delegating his secretary and other
officials to meet him and make him
welcome.
But the General Belgrano did not
reach Montevideo. 1t was believed
here that after leaving La Plata
IL merely anchored outside the har-
Dor to await further orders, but
this was q matter Of speculation.
Another suggestion was that per-
hapS the cruiser would head for
Europe, since DR.. Irigoyen yester-
day told physicians he would like
70 spend his exile in Europe. The
new president, General Jose Fran
cisco Uriburu. previously had ex-
pressed willingness for Irigoyen to
have his way.
DR.. Irigoyen was taken from the
Seventh Infantry barracks at ii a.
m. with the utmost secrecy. Troops
deployed in the neighborhood kept
even newspapermen from the scene.
He is understood TO be convaleScent
from his illness. which was dag
nosed as pneumonia.
