ARMY ENLISTEES. 'AT 1T FAVORED.
Harvard President Backs
 Reduction in Age Limit | for Volunteers

Cambridge, Mass, Jan. l5-(UP) -The U. 8. Army should reduce from 18 to n the age limit for vol- Iinteers, President James B. Conant of Harvard university believes.
 Explaining that the average age of graduation from high school is lTtk, pr. Conart said in his annual report today that the Army policy of drafting men at IS would leave Q gap in their education.
 Modification by the Army to take in men under ie on Q volunteer basis would remedy this situation, he said, and save many illatl-hours of combat training and service. pr. Conant expressed confidence that the liberal arts would survive the war and asserted that appre- henslve educators manifest "a sur- prlsing lack of faith in the vitality of this tradition.
 It was more probable, he said, that the liberal arts in the post war era would undergo e new period Of growth and evolution.
 "Conceivahly the humanistic stud- les, as they are sometimes called, cannot weather Q period of hiberna- ton while we win this war;" he said, "but if that Is SO, the war be the proximate, not the real cause of their demise"

TWO EARTHQUAKES HIT NEW ENGLAND.
Each Shock Sways Build. ings Gently; No Serious
 Damage Results

Boston, January IS. - (Up) = Reports from all sections of New England today indicated that no serious damage was caused by two earthquakes which shook the re- zion last night.
 The first temblor occurred ct 5:S3 D. m. and apparently was centered off Cape Ann. The second shock came Q few seconds later, but the first one had jared seismograph instruments ct Harvard and Weston college 50 its epicenter was not located exactly.
 The intensity of the vibrations carried considerably but seemed strongest in Maine, giving rise to the belief the epicenter might have been in the vicinity of Portland or Augusta, where many persons fled to the street when the quake started.
 Carroll County in New Hampshire, which experienced . series of shocks two years ago, also reported the vibrations were quite strong, but this was believed caused by the convergence of the two separate shocks.
 l.. Don Leet, Harvard seismologist, said 1t was possible more Quakes would follow, but said they prob. ably. would be no stronger than those of last night. A series of shocks IS not unusual, he said, as one often acts as e trigger" for the next.
 Each shock last night resulted in vibrations of from five to 10 seconds duration and the only unusual inci- dents were the rattling of dishes. and the gentle swaying of buildings.
 In some sections the shock was sharp and in others was gentle. Jack Quinn of Norway, Me-, was working in a garage and thought truck had hit the side of the building, willie others thought the quake was mere ly snow sliding off the roof.
 At Lynn, many buildings shook, but residents of Beverly Hamilton and Essex which were nearer the center of the quake did not notice any disturbance.

 10 Late Mayor Father

The Catholic Transcript, in an editorial today, declared that the late Mayor Vincent A. Scully, Furnished Q shining example of integrity and unselfishness in po- htical life" Mayor scully, se'd the paper, was "chlp off the old block" referring to his father, the late Mayor Martin scully.
 The editorial in The Trans cript follows:
 MAYOR sCULLY
 The greatest difficulty that the late Vincent A. Scully, mayor of Waterbury had in his campaign for election in 1889 was the stench of scandal lowering over the poli- tical scene in general and the Democratic party in particular. His greatest difficulty in office, however, was in living up to the reputation of his father who was mayor of Waterbury before him.

Dr. John M.

And the greatest tribute paid to him by his friends Is that he was his fathers son, Q chip off the old block in honesty, ability ard energy.
 His reelection in l041 by Q larger majority than in 1899 was a per- sonal tribute by the voters to the qualities which he inherited and which he exercised so ably and unselfishly as the chief executive of his native city. That he died so young, partly, at least, as the result of strain and overwork on the multitude of war time tasks loaded upon him, is matter for keen regret. That he furnished a shining example of integrity and unselfishness In political life be- fore his death is a matter for re- joicing. It is to be hoped that he will become as much of a noble tradition in Waterbury as his father,

Lawmakers Consider
Northwest proposals

A 1856, 0OO,O program of rivers
and harbors improvements in the
postwar period went over its first
legislative hurdle today, stated an
Associated Press release yester-
day.
Nearly 300 navigation and hy-
dro-electric power projects were
approved by the house rivers and
harbors committee with the under
standing that none would be con-
structed during the war, save a
dozen or so recommended by the
army and navy.
Omitted from the program were
several controversial items, but
the committee approved a few big
works such as the $4,000, 900 nav
igation and power program Of the
Snake river in Oregon, Washing
ton and Idaho and the 49,470,-
900 Umatilla dam in Oregon and

Says 10000 More
Trailers Comma
Here This Spring.
Many more workers ex-
pected for local project /;
hire more help

For every trailer there is now
in this locality we may look for
10 more in the spring, according to
Mr.. Kersher, sanitarian for the
Benton-Franklin health depart
ment. Mr.. Kersher appeared be-
fore the local city council Tues
day night, asking for further in
structions regarding the enforce
ment Of the trailer ordinances. He
said that the labor unions had
advised him to make preparations
for an influx of at least 10000
more as soon as things opened in
the spring.
Many hundreds of workmen,
now employed in similar work are
living in trailers on the jobs which
will soon be ended. These peo-.
pie are expected to arrive for
this job in the spring and the
trailer situation is expected to
become really acute in this area.
In preparation the state has au-
thorized the employment Of an
addition of two sanitarians and
two more nurses. They will be
put on the job as soon as they
can be secured.
