Latest Religious Leader In Philippines Preaches | Crusade Against Hard ork By William R. Kuhns (U. I*. Staff Correspondent) Manila.— (UP) —An epidemic of healers, Supreme Rulers, Holy Ghosts and Emperors has swept the Philippines since Tntrencharado I achieved such distinction as Emperor of Hollo that he was given a cool, roomy suite in the government’s best insane asylum. The constabulary and various local police are faced with a big problem. In the heart of Manila these semireligious leaders have been Known to soring up for a few days, collect several hundred followers and then move their spiritual kingdom to another locality.

For a small fee they cure all diseases and their fame spread quickly over a wide area. Intrecherado I was not a healer, in a strict sense. He was a dictator and acquired the quality of divinity later, with his crown and sword. But his imitators are taking tlie simpler path of healing the bodies of their subjects in return for obedience and a small fee. The most recent case to come before tile police is the Holy Ghost. In a section of Manila where the population is measured by the square foot, this healer has acquired much public support by denouncing hard work. He tells his audiences that the Supreme Being will visit heavy punishment on those who insist on working He reinforces his comfortable doctrine by saying that persons who refuse to work will be favored and live in wealth and happiness. His popularity grew by leaps. He cures baffling diseases by rubbing the limbs of patients, accompanied by strange incantations. He claims to be the most recent reincarnation of the Holy' Ghost. o . 1 I HEDDA HOYT TELLS I ....about... | FASHIONS for WOMEN i By Hedda Hoyt (United Press Fashion Editor) New York, July 14—(United Press) —Luncheon time at any of the smart hotels proves that the pi inted chiffon frock is the headliner this season. As a title, the chiffon is of small floral figured pattern of conservative iype rather than of large-patterned tiashy type. One-piece printed frocks outnumber twc-piece types, the majority of models having slightly bloused bodices, crushed girdles and skirts trimmed with tiers, flounces or pleats. Sleeves are long except in some instances where dark chiffon or georgette coats are worn over them. Next in importance to printed frocks are monotoned effects. The plain blege or giay theme is repeated in many instances and here we find the entire ci st tithe of crepe satin, crepe or georgette matched by slices, hosiery and hat. Rose-beige tones are quite prominent as are some of the soft banana and flesh tones. Black continues it s popularity especially among older women. The large black straw hat is without doubt the choice of the season for afternoon wear being worn witli printed flocks as well as with plain ones. Beige and deep brown hair hats often accompany costumes of beige colciing. One notices that the smartly-dressed woman Wears less jewelry during the daytime than formerly. For instance, numerous bracelets of last season are replaced by one or two bracelets of semi-precious type which harmonize in color with the costume. Chalcedony and grayish agate necklaces and bracelets are worn with gray costumes, carnelian and jade, used sepal ately or together, conform with almost any scheme, rose-quaitz is worn with costumes having a flesh or pinkish tone and amethyst is worn with pastel orchid costumes. The favorite necklace of the moment is the choker of large carved semi-precious beads such' Us rose-quartz, amethyst, carnelian or jade. o Find New Birthplace For Spanish Ruler Madrid (United Press) — Another historical mistake has just been reported. It seems that King Philip the Second of Spain, whose fourth centenary is being celebrated this year, and who had been known heretofore as born on May 22, 1527, in Valladolid, saw the light first in Vlloruela, a village near Panaranda de Barcamonte. province of Salamanca, distant fifty miles from Valladolid. The discovery has been made by the Villoruela parish priest while looking back through old registers on one of which he copied the relation of the King's birth. What took place in Valladolid was the christening ceremony.

By Paul R Mallon (United Press Staff Correspontent) Rapid City, S. !>., July 14—(UP)— The saying -Coolidge Luck" has become u proverb out here where the President has established his summer. White House. When it hails in the fields beside him. Mr. Coolidge in a open car is untouched; when it rains, there is no downpour near him and when other fishermen have bad luck he hooks ten trout.

Bandit-Ridden Chinese Villages Form Vigorous Vigilante Organization Peking.— (UP) —Natives of the , thickly populated province of Shantung have adopted the methods of the California Vigilantes to protect lhemselves against great bandit bands now terrorizing villages in many parts of Shantung. The organization, known as the "Self Protection Corps,’- started in the northeastern part of the province where a bandit army recently sacked a village, kiling many of the inhabitants after submitting them to the most horrible tortures. Sectional organizations are built around the mystic figure "72,” which signifies cooperative work on a large ' scale. Thus villages and hamlets, 72 In number, bind themselves by agreements made between their elders, to join in defense against the bandits in case any village is attacked. Villages are being strengthened and defense towers built. Arrangements have been made to call people into the walled villages from outlying hamlets in event a bandit army apepars. The young men in each village are ! arming themselves with iron-tipped bamboo spears, knives, scythes and ! other weapons and are' sworn to fight the bandits to the death. An effort also has been made to propitiate the evil spirits which are supopsed to in. ite bandit raids against the peaceful villagers. To this end ( villages are flying magic flags and
