A delightful program of Negro
folk and spiritual songs was given
last night at the Sylvan Theater
by the Tempo Choral Society, I'M
der the direction Of DR.. w. Scott
Mayo. The beautiful blending Of
voices, balance of sections and the
fervor of the singers made a
deep impression upon the large
audience.
DR.. Mayo led his chorus, all Of
which sang entirely from memory,
with a close attention to fine ex'
preston born of much rehearsal
and love of singing. While the i'm
mediate response Of the audience
was stronger following such songs
as Good News" Dett), Joshua
Fit De Battle Of Jericho" (RoSa-
mond Johnson) and Every Time
1 Feel the Spirit Moving" there
was a strong appreciation for the
gutter works, Coin Home"
Weeping Mary" (Dett) and Deep
River" (Burleigh).
In the two latter songs there
were contrasting moods of EXPIRES
sion that at times burst forth into
mighty climaxeS that were thrill
ing to listen to. Probably the most
sensational work of the evening
was the solo numbers Of Mr.. E. E.
Ayres, bass, when he sang "Ex-
hortation" Cook.
Mr.. AyreS has an exceptional
voice, robust and resonant, which,
together with a fine sense Of
dramatic values, completely capti-
waited the audience. For an encore,
he sang the solo lines of Every
Time I Feel the Spirit Moving"
and at the end repeated. by re-
quest, "Exhortation."
This concert, which was the
final presentation of the summer
festival series, was brought to an
impressive close when the Tempo
Choral Society marched slowly off
the stage singing the Negro Spiri-
tual, STEAL Away to Jesus"

JAPAN TO KEEP
SUBMARINE
TONNAGE
By KINGSBURY SMITH

LONDON, Sept. 2 G.N.SJ.
Japan created a new naval sen
sation today by officially notify.
ing Great Britain Of her inten.
ton to retain 1888 tons of ex.
cess submarines which should be
Scrapped before the end Of the
year under terms Of the London
Naval Treaty.
Retention Of this tonnage will
give Japan nearly a 80 per cent
supremacy over the United
States and Britain in submarine
strength.
Reply to Britain
The Japanese action was taken
in connection with Britain's invo-
cation of the treaty's "escalator
clause" in the case of destroyerS.
Britain had notified other sig
natories she was retaining 4O,-
900 tons of destroyers, an action
which gave Japan the right to
retain $4,000 tons OF destroyer
strength if she chose to do so.
Japan in reply advised she was
retaining 1859 tons of destroy
ers and the balance at 1888
tons of submarines.
Under the London treaty, Britain,
Japan and the United States are
entitled to 52,TO0 tons OF sub
merSibles each.
The japanese move is expected
to open up the entire question OF
excess submarine tonnage. White
hall spokesman said there had
been no advance information re-
garding Tokyo'S action.
Question Studied
It was considered unlikely Britain
would agree to grant Japan any
submarine supremacy. Careful
study is being given the notifica-
ton, received by Whitehall during
the morning from the Japanese
embassy.
Britain is expected to take
up the matter with Washington
shortly. Unless Japan invokeS the
''escalator clause" it is questionable
whether she can retain excess sub
marine tonnage without violating
the treaty, observers declared. It
was recalled the United States re-
fused to assent to Britain's reten-
ton of deStroyerS without invoking
the clause.

Child Dental Health
 Program Is Stressed
State Department Announces Need for More Centers
 for Care and Teaching

nurse or dental hygienist. Mothers no longer cease their attention to children's teeth after eruption of the first teeth, and await complaint of toothache. It has been well dem- onstrated at the Well Child Con- ferences and Summer Round-U Ups that this new care of teeth has made an enormous difference in the condition of children examined, the bulletin said, yet these improve ments, important as they arc, are but minor part of the work to be accomplished by the educational efforts of dentists, doctors, dental hgienists and nurses. There is a pressing need for more centers where the gospel of oral health can be spread, especially among par ents of children of the pre-School age. It is in the pre-School period that there exists the greatest op- portunity of establishing founda- ton for good teeth for future citi- Zens.
 It cannot be denied, the bulletin continued, that many maladies, such as sinus infection, mastoid abscess rheumatic fever, heart disease and many others, have been directly caused by, or aggravated by. infec- tions which have gained entrance to the body through neglected, un- sound teeth. Decayed teeth may act as the portal of entry for bacteria to any part of the body.
 Due to present economic condi- tions, many children have had to get along without fresh fruits, and have been deprived of a sufficient amount of milk, both of which are foods necessary because of their high calcium and Wtamin content and their importance in maintain ing the integrity of the mucous membranes and the bony structure of theI body-a fact which empha- sizes the fact that adults and par ents of the present cannot stand by and see the handicap of disease placed upon these children whose real heritage should be sound and healthy body.
