 "A third said: The manifestation of joy and brotherly love by the workers is most inspiring and is noticed and spoken of in praise by persons knowing little or noth- ing of Christian Science
 A publisher who would not even advertise our lectures, was so in- pressed by assistance given him that he has since been carrying Lesson Sermon excerpts, and has offered to carry 8 full lecture report"
 In the report of the clerk, Ezra w. Palmer, attention was drawn to the international appeal of Christian Science as indicated by the fact that the instructions for filling out ap. plications for membership in the Mother Church are now available in II languages.
 "The Mother Church, built on the Rock, Christ, is a mighty power for righteousness" he declared. Tt is leavening, transforming, and spirit ualizing thought throughout the world, both within and without the Christian Science movement. Grad ually, but surely, barren dogmas and false concepts which obstruct the flow of light from God to human consciousness, are fading away as the spiritual idea of Church becomes clearer and dearer to the seekers for reality"

our Lesson Sermons, each of which showed that Christian Science is based on the Bible. Radio stations carried some nine thousand relig- ious programs, each of which in- cluded passages from the Bible and from Mrs. Eddy,s writings. Secular newspapers reprinted about twelve thousand religious articles from the Christian Science Monitor, and more than two hundred and fifty radio stations now carry The Monl- tor Views the News
 We are glad to report that pub lie thought, which is reflected in legislative bodies, has become sufii- ciently free from prejudice to pre- vent the passage of many meas ures which would have restricted the rights of Christian Scientists" l"
 The place of Christian Science periodicals in carrying on healing ministry, disseminating inspiration for humanity that it may find re- lief from it's burden of sickness and sin, fttured the report of The Christian Science Publishing So- ciety, presented by Roland R. Har- rison, manager. Mrs. Eddy's state ment on page 27l of Miscellaneous Writings was quoted, that students of Christian Science should take our magazine, work for it, write for 1t, and read it." This applies to all the periodicals, it was concluded. sm 1h jllSemmEj -6iE :gegoat

 The hint that Italy might add two battleships to its already big program was made as Mussolini staged an impressive naval review between Gaeta and Naples, oil the west coast, for Field Marshal .Wer- ner von BloMberg, German war minister.
 More than 100 units participated, including some 70 submarines; Re- liable information was that the tac- tical problem for the review was whether submarines and destroyers could attack and destroy a fleet of cruisers advancing to attack q coastal city. Mussolini's close attcn- ton to the British and French navy programs seemed to leave little doubt of the nature of the problem.
 Hitler Disarmament
 Berlin, June 7-(U.F.) = An in- vitation to other nations to make a move toward disarmament was read by diplomats today in a speech by Fuehrer Adolf Hitler to l50,000 Nazis at Regensburg.
 Addressing a regional party con- ference at Regensburg yesterday Hitler said that Germany rearned because other nations reartned. Pre- viously, Hitler said, Germany dis armed, first but this time others must disarn first because i've have become suspicious"
 But if others desire to dispel this suspicion" Hitler added, "They can easily do So by giving an example and disarming."
 He asserted that Gerfnai1y's arm ament did not mean that Germany wanted war and said that the third Reich would not start a war mot today nor tomorrow nor the day after tomorrow"
 He said of statements abroad disarmament would be 8 blessing: 'They could have had this blessing long ago. We have made them offers and Germany moreover was dis armed when we made them"
 AS to statements that Britain was rearming in the service of world peace, Hitler said that the same held good for Germany.
 "Germany's millions want to work in peace" he said. "They do not want to fight. But Germany will not suffer to be insulted or attacked. If someone thinks he may throw bombs on our ships, then we shall show him that we do not stand for such things"
 In this connection he referred to the bombing Of the city of Almeria, Spain, by a German war fleet in reprisal for the bombing of the bat tleShip Deutschland:
 T read in foreign newspapers that the Alineria bombing damaged out reputation. I want to say this: People associating with notorious criminals are not qualified to be judges of our reputation"
 In brief reference to Jews, he said:
 'There is only one effective means against the Jewish Bolshevist clique: to hit back when they at tack"

CRAZY FARMER
 BEING PURSUED
tContinued from Page D
EScaped March 2

Robbins escaped from Worcester state hospital March and since had lived with his mother here. On complaint of parents of little girls in the nearest settlement mile away that a man had molested chill dren as they walked past the Rob- bins farmhouse enroute to school Trooper Howard CsRead and James P. Collins, hospital attendant, went to the farm yesterday to return Rob- bins to the hospital.
 Begins Shooting
 When the troopers automobile pulled into the farmyard, Robbins ran to the second floor of the farm house and obtained an automatic.
 Hello Robbins" called Read from the foot of the stairs. Aren't you coming down here and see me?"
 No" shouted Robbins. And if you take a single step, I'll drill you. I'll blow your head off,"
 Hardly had Read began again to ask the man to surrender, than Rob- bins opened fire. The first bullet whizzed by the troopers head and a second lodged in door behind him.
 Shot At Mother
 Robbins mother, Mrs. Julia Put nam, went to the foot of the stairs and begged her son not to fire again. His answer was another shot that struck a stool near her feet. Read picked up Mrs. Putnam and placed her in side room and then fired two shots to frighten the fugitive.
 Robbins outwitted the officer by descending another flight of stairs and escaping from a rear door into woods.
 Two boarders at the Robbins farmhouse telephoned the nearby Grafton barracks, but by the time a squad of officers armed with tear gas bombs had arrived, Robbins had disappeared.

 To Discover Cause
 The government inspectors were due later. Theirs was the job of try ing to determine from the scattered parts what caused the pilot to leave his course and turn into the peaks, instead of following the regulR route across Salt Lake Valley.
 Allen Barrie, vice president of the Western Air Express, was in charge of the party. He ordered that no bodies were to be moved. All were crushed, broken and frozen.
 Letters and packages from the mail cargo were strewn in all direc- tions. Some were illegible. Andrews said the largest piece of wreckage that could be seen on the south side of the mountain was half of the propellor.
 35th Try Successful
 It was Devey's 35th expedition in search of the plane. Only in rare good weather could men venture into the mountains, where snow was piled 30 feet deep in places, and the wreckage was not visible from the air, which accounted for lhe fact that it lay unfound nearly six months.
 The plane left Los Angeles at 11:53 p. m, December 14, reported by radio from over Milford, Utah, at 2:28 a. m. December IS, and was never heard from again. In addition to Pilot Samson, there were aboard: |: William Bogen, co-pilot; Miss Gladys Witt, stewardess, and the passeli- gers: MT. and Mrs. John Wolfe, Chi cago; H. w. Edwards, st.

C." 3e0 Police On Guard As plans were made to strengthen picket lines on all fronts, 300 po- lice remained on guard at the Re- public plant. There was no disor- der.
 Peace likewise returned to Ohio picket lines after minor flareups. At Canton, O., early yesterday, a small group of men exchanged shots with pickets as they dashed into the republic plant. Police stopped fighting with tear gas.

As they were wading the creek, pick cts fired on them. according to po- lice Captain John Macdonald. The men returned the fire and ran.
 Macdonald said about 10 shots were exchanged. Other reports said many more had been fired. Po- lice stopped the battle before the workers reached the plant. They found no evidence of casualties.
 The strike committee at Canton dropped leaflets by airplane into the plant calling on the workers to come out
 State Of Riot Vice President c. w. Galloway of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad tel egraphed Governor Davey that ito all ntents and purposes a state of riot exists because we are pre- vented by strikers from performing our obligations as common car riers." He said that as a substan- tial taxpayer, the road was entitled "to the protection of the state in the peaceful pursuit of our busi- ness"
