NAVY BEGINS
WORK TOWARD
BOAT TREATY
Cruisers and U-Boats
Also Planned Under
London Pact

WASHINGTON, July l4.-F-As
a step toward building up to London
Treaty strength. the Navy Is about
to begin the job OF replacing some
OF Its ~destroyers built in the days
OF the dreaded U-Boat activities.
The eleven on which the depart
ment plans to advertise for con-
struction bids tomorrow will be a
move in this direction. Secretary
Adams indicated he may ask the
new congress 70 provide money for
more Of this type.
Over Tonnage
In this small put important type
Of fighting ship, the United States
at present is over the 10000 ton
mage specified by the London treaty
for December 81, 1886. Scrapping on
account Of age, however, Will pull
the total well below by that GATE
and necessitate requirements.
At present the navy has 2l9
destroyers, most OF which are under
1900 tons as compared with 1900
tons for the IL which are 10 be
built.
No vessel Of this class has been
laid down since the wa and Secre-
tary Adams probably had special
reference to the destroyer fleet when
he remarked that construction IN
the navy since the London confer
ence had not kept pace with depre-
citation.
New Subs Bailt
In the submarine class such x
pensive replacementS are not eH-
pected TO be necessary to keep up 10
the 25,7O0 tonnage SPECIFIED Q the
end Of 1886. Six large fleet un-
marines OF the v type have been
commissioned and three more are
building.
AS for cruisers. the United States
is well on its way TO the treaty
maximum in the eight-inch gun
IO.OOO-ton class while considerable
leeway for construction OF six-incn
gun ships remain
Completion Of the seven eight
inch gun cruisers now under con-
struction will make a total OF 10.
Three more can be started, II each
in 1888, 1884 and 1885, 70 reach the
Is allowed under the treaty. These
already have been authorized. al
though the money has not been APP
~propriated.
Get More Cruisers
The United states now has ten
7,5O0-ton six-inch gun cruisers ana
is entitled to about ten more OF the
same SIZE.
In aircraft carrier tonnage this
country is below the maximum OF
1879 tons. The three carriers
afloat and the one now buildinE.
the Ranger. together total only 81
800 tons. Three more nearly the size
OF the aRnger. which is 1890 tons,
thus could be constructed.
In the. remaining category
battleships-the United States does
not have to worry about new con-
s~truction as 1t already has the 10
alloyge1 under the London treaty.

HISTORICAL DRAMAS
 TO BE BROADCAST
Margaret Anglin to Portray Joan of Arc in
 Series

One of the most ambitious histori- cal drama broadcasts ever attempted will be inaugurated by NEG com- memorating the 500th anniversary of the martyrdom of Joan of Arc on May 30, 1431.
 The series will be heard weekly on Tuesdays May 19, 26 and June 2 and 9 between 10 and 10:30 p. m. over an extensive NEG network, with Margaret Anglin. internationally known actress assuming the role of Joan of Arc. She will be supported by specially selected NEG radio cast.
 Indications are that at least two of the broadcasts will be picked up and retransmitted by short wave to Domremy, France, birthplace of the great French martyr.
 During the four broadcasts the life of Joan of Arc will be related with elaborate musical background provided by full symphony orches- tra. Tschaikowski's little heard Jeanne d'Arc Suite" will furnish the basis for the musical synchro- nization.
 The broadcast will be heard in New York through WIZ.

HEALTH MEETINGS
ARE CONDUCTED
AT INSTITUTE

Great interest among school
nurses and physical education
groups has been displayed at
health meetings conducted at the
teachers institute, according to DR..
Warren F. Fox, city and county
public health officer. A joint
meeting of school nursing and
physical education groups was held
Monday.
A proposed health program was
discussed by DR.. Fox who presented
plan whereby the various school
districts would join with the county
health department in pooling their
resources SO that additional per-
sonnel could be employed, consist
ing of a woman physician and
dentist, both full time.
DR.. Fox pointed out that there
are approximately 10000 school
children In the county and all of
them should have the benefit of 4
complete routine physical examina-
ton yearly. Except for the rural
schools and a few scattering eX-
aminations in some of the cities,
no physical examinations are be-
ing made in the county at the
present time by school physicians.
At the morning session, Tuesday,
various eye infections were frs.
considered by DR. Fox with a DEM
onstration of cases of follicular
conjunctivitis. Following this the
subject of the recognition OF visual
defects and their correction was
discussed by DR.. Norman E. Du-
pont. Doctor Dupont gave pres
entation OF this subject, touching
on the cause of eye strain. the re-
suits of surveys made in various
schools. and pointed out that in
one survey in New York recently
completed of 100000 school chill
dren, SO per cent were found TO
have visual defects.
At the afternoon session, DR..
Edwin o. Carter gave a talk on
dental hygiene, stressing the i'm
portance Of early recognition of the
permanent teeth and the preven-
ton of dental carries and laying
particular emphasis on a proper
diet.
At today's session, Miss Frances
P. Ostberg of the county health
department, discussed posture de-
fects and their correction, with a
demonstration Of exercises.

Quote Me-
By United Press

WASHINGTON, Dec. %. U.P)-
The congressional record, uninspir-
ing in appearance but packed with
meaty reading, today contained
health advice to congressman. 1t
was an example Of tricky parlia-
mentary procedure and repartee.
Senator Borah, Repn., Ida. had
been objecting TO a lengthy holiday
recess. He gained the senate floor.
Mr.. President" he said, Il have
understood that a precedent has
been established TO the effect that
this concurrent resolution 'propos-
ing a recess until January d. when
offered, will not be debatable. Is
that the parliamentary situation in
case it should be brought up here?"
That is my understanding, re-
sponded Senator Watson, Repn,
Ind.
"I think a resolution Of this kind
is debatable. Mr. President" per-
sisted Borah.
"A resolution to adjourn is not
debatable," rule d Vice President
Curtis.
Then said Borah, neatly solv-
ing the situation, "let us debate it
before it comes in"
The health advice was offered by
Rep. Seger, Repn., N. J. praising
the decision of Speaker Garner to
get along without an official auto
mobile, Seger said:
Il took occasion the other day
to ask some one familiar with the
subject how many members own
automobiles. l was informed that
80 per cent own and ride in auto
mobiles to and from the daily ses-
sions Of congress That is some
thing TO think about
However, there are things which,
I think, we should be more con-
cerned. We have lost in the last
II months IA Of our friends and
| colleagues. I think it is partly
true that the reason for these
deaths is the lack Of exercise, the
lack of proper air, and the lack
Of proper food I do not think
that necessarily a man becomes dig
nified because he rides in an auto
mobile, but If he does not ride in
an automobile and walks more, eats
less and breaths more of Gods free
air he will be much better off for
| it,"

Tropical Drama
At Fox Imperial

safe in He'll" is the lurid but
rather misleading title of the pic
ture booked for tonight only at
Fox Imperial theatre, with Dorothy
Mackail in the leading role.
He'll in this case is not satan's
kingdom, but an out of the way
place in the tropics where those
bounded by the law seek refuge
from pursuit.
Miss Mackail is cast in the role
of 4 girl who is brought TO the
tropical refuge TO escape the law
and Immediately becomes the OBJ
ject of attention by all of the
criminals with whom she is thrown
in contact.
Again misfortune throws her
into the tolls of the law and blasts
the romance which has come into
her drab life.
