let would greatly benefit fishermen
from as far north as Massachusetts
and as far south as Virginia. Sen
ator Tydings of Maryland told the
board that such an inlet would af-
ford the only safe harbor of refuge
between the Delaware Bay and the
Virginia capes. Representative t.
Alan Goldsborough, of Maryland,
has been one of the chief sponsors
of the inlet project, as well as a
number of Eastern Shore projects.
He announced Saturday that Cen
eral Brown and the Secretary of
War had approved the recommend
ations for dredging a channel 9
feet deep and rs feet wide from
Tangier Sound along the shore of
the Upper Thoroughfare to the
highway bridge, to be protected by
a breakwater at the entrance. The
dredging of a turning basin at this
point $50 feet wide and 6 feet deep
was also approved. In the con-
struction of the Ocean City inlet,
it is proposed that this would be
10 feet deep and 200 feet wide, also
calls for a channel from the inlet
in the Sinepuxent Bay s feet deep
and 100 feet wide into Chinco-
league Bay. Maryland has already
agreed to share two-thirds of the
cost of the Ocean City project.

GRADUATES OWN DAY

One Of the turning points OF
life is the day when anyone
graduates from a school OF
college. A hill top scene,
truly, when one surveys the
toilsome and dusty path over
which one travelled. Also
one peers into that fascinat-
ing and mysterious future, be-
hind which one feels so many
glorious scenes are concealed.
College graduates, wise
young persons, often look at
commencement day as a bore.
Many Of them would prefer
kicking up some dizzy dance,
to having a stiff diploma tied
up with blue ribbon, poked at
them by some venerable trus-
tee. However, all these
youngsters know at heart
that their labor has been re-
warding, and they have found
meanings in life never i'm
agined before.
High school graduations are
scenes of equal enthusiasm
and charm. The boys exude
manly vigor, the girls sweet
ness, in solid chunks, but
these qualities are not invar-
iably exhibited the next day
when they are asked to hoe
the garden or cook dinner.
But these youngsters are the
darlings of their communities
and the expectation is that
they are headed for the White
House or will at least thrill
the world.
Even in the modest gram
mar school, or the Little Ru-
raj Schoolhouse, the exhibit
ton day when the top class is
passed on, is an event the i'm
portance Of which is never
surpassed by later occasions,
in the minds of the partici-
pants anyway. You can never
make the parents believe
there is a decline Of genius, as
they listen open mouthed to
the performances Of their off
spring.
Young folks do not probab-
ly listen to serious graduation
addresses as they used to.
However, the graduating class
advertises education. 1t per-
suades youngsters that the
way to life lies through that
gateway labelled knowledge.

.CANDHI MAKES . THREAT;|S TO
 DIE AS MARTYR
Will Starve to Death Rath- CT than Submit to
 New System

LONDON, Sept. 13. Mahatma Gandhi is determined to starve himself to death rather than ac- cept the electorial representation system worked out for India by the British Cabinet.
 This was revealed today when the India Office made public let ters exchanged by Mahatma Gand- hi and Premier Mcdonald.
 Gandhi intends to take no more food after midday September 20.
 The particular part of the Gov ernment's electorial scheme to which Gandhi objects is the provision for modified form of separate electorate for India's untouchables.
 T respectively inform His Ma jesty's Government, in the event of their decision creating a separate electorate for the depressed classes, I must fast unto death" Gandhi said in one of his letters.
 Official sources are unable to say what steps the Government will take to prevent Mahatma killing himself by starvation.

STOCKHOLM, Sept. 13. = The .Ivar Kreuger Collection" of works of art, jewelry and furni- ture. assembled during the years when the match king lived with a check book in his hand, is to be auctioned off to the highest bidders at the Swedish French art gallery here, starting tomorrow.
 There are 617 separate items in this collection, including 130 oil paintings, etchings, and water col ors, 30 silky Persian rugs, 60 jew eled rings, necklaces, cuff buttons and watches, along with small stat uary, glassware, china, gold plate, and tapestries.
 The match king was not a con- poisseur of things beautiful in the strict sense. He did not spend his time dallying through art gall leries or trying to pick up bargains at auction sales.
 When he saw something he liked Ee bought it. The ever ready check book spoke for him.

PARIS, Sept 13. = In reply to Germany's demand for arms equal ity, France has notified the Ger man Government that by modify ing armaments, Germany will not only violate the treaty of Yer sailles but also make it impossible to bring about eventual general disarmament.
 The French reply was made pub lie by the Government.
 While refusing the German pro- posal, France expressed conviction it is possible to work with Ger many in seeking new arrange ment, not for the return to the old procedure of preparation for war but to progress in an organi- zation for peace"
 The French doctrine set forth that efforts must be directed not toward rearmament in particular countries but toward general dis armament and supervision of armS aments."

CENSURINCO OF

 PLAN OF 4. |,
Use of Troops to Be Con- demned-Hurley Kissed,
 Booed and Cheered

PORTLAND Oregon, Sept 13.- A proposed resolution censuring President Hoover for use of troops to evict bonus seekers from Wash ington, D. C., and resolutions on bonus and prohibition kept the Legionnaires abuzz today while the rank and file formed for the huge parade.
 The presence of Secretary of War Hurley, who alternatively was booed and hissed and cheered thus heightened interest as the Pennsylvania delegation planned to carry the fight to the floor for a censuring resolution on Hoover for calling out troops in Wash ington.
 The convention adjourned yester- day afternoon with a speech by Mayor James Curley, of Boston, Mass, in which he said: "The wartime heroes were shot down like dogs in the Capitol of our Nation
 Secretary Hurley avoided contro- versial subjects in his address and urged the Legionnaires to put patriotism above politics."

SENT IMENT FOR
 GOV. ROOSEVELT M AKlNC GAINS
Pacific Coast Is Solid for Democratic Ticket, De-
 clares Harry F. Morgan

Sentiment for the Democratic National ticket continues to pre- dominate on the Pacific Coast and seems stronger now than six weeks ago, according to Harry F. Mor- ton, prominent Anchorage attor- ney, who visited local friends here today He is enroute home after several weeks spent in San Fran cisco on legal business.
 Washington and Oregon are re- garded as certain for Gov. Roose- velt, with good chances for Con- gressional and State tickets win- ming, and California seems likely to give MT. Roosevelt a majority and elect William Gibbs McAdoo to the Senate, MT Morton said. AS the campaign has progressed the strength of the Democratic ticket has become more and more apparent.
 A strenuous campaign for the Democratic ticket in Alaska will be waged in the Third Division and the majority for Senator Di- mond and other candidates will 1e impressive, according to MT. Mor- ton. He has kept in touch with the situation during his absence and will take an active part in the. campaign during the closing weeks.
 MT. Morton was accompanied north by Frank L. Reed, Anchor age business man, who made the trip to San Francisco with him in connection with legal question affecting the Eklutna waterpower development.

 Relic from Church Foes

MALAGA, Spain, Sept. 13.-The image known as the Christ of Mena," which was thought to have been lost in the 191 orgy of church burning, is safe and scarcely dam aged, says Salvador Gonzalez An aya, President of the Academy of Fine Arts.
 He adds that the statue is being kept safely while the minds of the people are perturbed by re- ligious matters"
 The image was made by Pedro de Mena in 1858. It was in the church of Santo Domingo here, burned in May, 1881, and Senor Anaya says the image was saved only after a sharp fight between members of the parish and the rioters.

SEATTLE, Sept. 13. = Tentative plans for Gov Franklin D. Roose- velt's fourteen-hour stay in Seattle, September 20, have been prepared by George E. Starr, Democratic State Chairman, and telegraphed to Democratic National Headquart- CTS.
 Starr's proposed program includes an evening address at the Uni versity of Washington Stadium or Civic Auditorium, in addition to parade, public luncheon and a TWO and one-half-hour reception.
 Leaders Doubtful
 Democratic leaders were frankly doubtful whether their Presidential candidate would approve the even- ing speech, as he had previously announced that his only major ad- dress in the Pacific Northwest would be at Portland, the day fol- lowing the Seattle meeting.
 Whether the evening portion of the program is approved or reject ed, Starr's outline includes an op- portunity for thousands to see the Democratic nominee for President, and for several hundred to grasp his hand.

 Present Setback

NEW YORK, Sept. 13. = The Stock Market dashed down in a torrent of selling in the earlier hours today but showed an inclina- tion to climb about midday.
 Losses of two to more than ten points were about half recovered, in many instances, but the mar ket remained highly unsettled and selling was general throughout the entire session today.
 Off Many Points
 Stocks off four to six points in- cluded United States Steel, Am erican Telephone and Telegraph, Westinghouse, American Smelling, Bethlehem Steel, Youngstown Tube and Allied Chemical.
 Reasons for Setback
 A wide range of reasons for the setback were mentioned in broker age quarters, from political to econ omic, but most bankers say the market has gone ahead too fast and needed correction.
 The severity of the decline. the brokers said, partly reflected the fact the market is honeycombed with stop loss orders as it became apparent good shakedown was coming. Buyers stood aside and the market sank abruptly. These orders touched off large volume.
