LITTLE M'HENRY
 GIRL IMPROVES
Courageous Young Miss Is Giving Hope to Doc-
 tors in Charge

Fall River, Mass, March G. (UP) - Courageous little Alycc Jane McHenry was smiling again today as she gained fresh ground in her uphill battle toward recov- cry from a miracle operation" in which her inverted stomach was righted. The 10:3O a. m. bulletin from her "rose room" on the sec- ond floor of Truesdale hospital read: Alice slightly improved. Temperature 1902, pulse '128, ree- piration 24." Thus. her tempera- ture and respiration were un- changed from S:30 a. m., at which time her pulse was 124.
 Doctors who yesterday had given the impression that the chubby 10 year old Omaha girl had an even chance to live, would make no defi- mite statement along this line to- day, but they admitted they were more optimistic than at any time since the operation.
 Their optimism was shared by Alyce's mother, Mrs Louella Me- Henry, who has been at the bed- side almost constantly since the child underwent her ordeal. The continued improvement in the lit tie patients condition was believed due in part to a successful enema the first that Alyce had ever had -early this morning.

BY rREDERICK KUH

London. March 6-tUPD-Naval estimates calling for $292.0 .000.000 comprised Great Britain's response today to German anger over charges that Germany's military spirit forced Britain to rearm.
 The estimates were issued just 24 hours after Adolf Hitler. on the plea of a cold, cancelled visit set for tomorrow from Sir John simon. foreign minister.
 Belief here that the cold was a diplomatic one was strengthened by bitter comments in the closely controlled German newspapers over the charges of Nazi mill itaristic sentiment.
 Building Program
 The building program under the estimates calls for 2S new ships as follows:
 Three cruisers.

 Sir Bolton Eyres- M onsell, first lord of the admiralty, in issuing the estimat tes pointed out signifi- cantly that new construction con- tinues to be limited under the Lon- don naval treaty until December 3l 1886.
 Mondays white paper, which reused German anger, said that Britain must rebuild it's capital ships-battleships, which are cov- cred by the Washington treaty. also expiring at the end of 1886.
 Eyres- -Monsell in his estimates memorandum, explained that 26 capital ships and cruisers are now fitted with airplane catapults, and equipped with 33 planes.
 He said that the great $5O,OOO,- 900 Singapore naval base was pro- ceeding satisfactorily.

 Mr. Wehrle's motion for the es- tablishment of the board was put before the meeting and was car- ried without dissenting voice.
 It was evident that Mir. Hotch- kiss address on local taxes and ex- penditures had prodigious effect on the vote to sanction the finance board here, the voters apparently believing that such group will eventually bring a lower tax rate, Land Purchase Tabled

ANOTHER FREAK TO ASTOUND THE
 MEDICAL WORLD
Boy Was Born Without an EsOphagus-ls Be-
 ing Kept Alive

Newburgh, N. Y., March 6. - (UU)-Robert Earl Linsig, whose plight is even more extreme than that of little Alyce Jane McHenry of the upside-down stomach, started his 18th day of life today with a part of his destiny already marked out for him. He is going to be a -chewer. Robert Earl was born without an esophagus and is being kept alive through a tube connected directly to his stomach. Today Dr. W. B. Harris of St. Lukes hospital. disclosed that the otherwise sound young fellow would be sentenced to a gum diet as soon as feasible.
 Hell have to chew gum," said Dr. Harris. "The gum will help develop his jaw muscles and his tongue for articulation, since he won't be using them to eat. As far as tasting goes, he'll have to be on gum"
 Dr. Harris expects the child who, he said, ''grins like any thing" to live and even some day 70 be able to play football. But his optimism is guarded.
 The child was born Feb. 16 and weighed pounds, l3 ounces, he said. Now he weighs 6 pounds, 3 ounces. We expect to feed him indefinitely through the tube leading to his stomach. An operation to remove the obstruc- tion in his throat probably would be fatal"
 And on Orange street.. in near by Marlboro on Hudson, Mrs Ray mond Linsig, thinking of her seven years of childless married life, said she guessed this wouldn't have happened if they hadn't wanted the little fellow so badly.
 An ounce and half he gained today" she sighed. "I think there'il be little boy here yet"

ECONOMY PLAN OF GOVERNOR CROSS { MEETS TROUBLE
Merit System for State Em= plOyes and COrOners
 Face Opposition

Hartford, Conn, March c. UP) Governor Cross far-reaching government economy program has landed in the middle of the gen. eral assembly trouble zone. Among other things, proposed as money savers, the executive suggested a merit system for state employees and abolition of the office of coro- ,ner. Both were torn apart in com- mittee hearings late yesterday and received but feeble support-har,i- ly enough to get them out of com mittee on favorable reports. Coro- ners receive $20 a day and medi- cal examiners SIC day for each work day.
 Senate republican floor leader and chairman of the judiciary com nittee. J. Kenneth Bradley. called it "a rotten fee system," and "wasteful and inefficient" He read report showing fees totaled $l73,125 for the two years of 1892 to- 1884. Hartford county paid out $I180 during 1883, he said. and New Haven county $5.280. There E something wrong with a system that permits such discrepancy"
 Supporters of the system de- clared the varying amount of work in each county responsible for the difference in expenditures. It was admitted that medical ex- arniners often were called unnec- essarily. Several coroners, appear ing in opposition to the measure. promised to submit report of the number of cases handled in each county as an argument against Bradleys proposal coroners and medical examiners be placed on a flat salary basis.
 There was even more spirited op- position to the recommended merit system. Mrs Ruth M. Dadourian. president of the Connecticut League of Women Voters, was its sole supporter. Others argued it more of a protection for the inefi- cient than a help for the efficient" and Dr R. L. Leak, superintendent of. the state hospital at Middletown declared the civil service system in New York state "a disgrace and Il was glad to get away from it."
 The committee also squeezed in hearings on two tax bills, designed to enforce payment of personal taxes and make taxable joint bank accounts in event of death of one of the depositors.
 The motor vehicles committee was urged to report favorably or bill 10 establish motor highway and traffic patrol. Former Motor Vehicles Commissioner Robbins B Stoeckel spoke in behalf of the bill and declared 1t would eliminate the necessity of compulsory liabIl- ity insurance by cracking down nn the small number of drivers re- sponsible for the majority of ac- cidents.
