The judge declares that a very large porportion of the young offenders that have faced him durIng tile past twenty-two years to answer criminal charges have developed Into useful citizens. "The children, who come into this court, I have learned, are not bad," eald Judge Portdrfield. ".Records show that between eighty and ninety per cent of them become useful law-abiding citizens when they are taken in hand and shown the right way. If their home life had been of the proper sort they would never have been brought into court for delinquency or petty crimes." o BRONZE HONORS NEVIN’S MEMORY New Haven, Conn., — (UP) Music lovers will gather tomorrow before an old ivy-covered house at 40 Trumbull street where Ethelbert Nevin wrote ■The Rosary" and where he died on February 17, 1901. iu an appropriately simple ceremony, the widow of the composer will unveil a copper plaque placed between the tall windows of the room in which Nevin breathed his last.

The Nevins. Ethelbert, hie wile, i and their two children, Paul and IJ Doris, came here early in 1900 from J New York. He was born in Edge-1 . I worth, Pa. Although he had been a • I social light in New York, he lived I I simply in the small apartment. He I . moved his piano into the parlor ; i downstairs and did most of his comi posing there. Robert Cameron Rogers, here as a Yale student, wrote the words . of “The Rosary," the song which , gained Nevin undying fame. [ The composer’s life here is commemorated by more than the tablet. > Mrs. Frank Crown, who occupies I the house .has gathered what is i probably the most complete collection of Nevin relics. Miss Flora Calhoun, a neighbor. I remembers him as a frail man who I played the piano and always had a blossom—usually a single narcissus—near him. o CHINESE TONGUE TO BE LATINIZED Leningrad, —(UP) —The Institute of Eastern Cutleure at the Academy of Science has been commissioned to Latinize the Chinese language The work is in charge of Professor Vasily Ailekseyev, who is one of the greatest Sinologists (scholar of Chinese) in the world. • Tremendous political importance is attached to successful Latinization of the Chinese language. It is very difficult for the average Chinese to learn Chinese writing at the present time. It is therefore very difficult to spread literacy among the Chinese masses. Great Influence The reduction of the Chinese counds into a very few alphabetical elements will exert a tremendous influence on the cultural and political fate of this nation of four hundred eighty-five million people, or nearly one-fourth of the population of the world. The work of Latinization is being done under the auspices of the Mongol National Republic, popularly known as Outer-Mougolia. It is alleged that the Chinese generals and other conservative elements in China are vehemently opposed to this reform and regard it as a Bolshevist propagandist stunt. o Hang New Hughes Picture Cambridge, Mass., —(UP)— An oil painting of Charles Evans Hughes has been added to the collection of Chief Justices' portraits in Langdell Hall of Harvard Law school. The portrait of Chief Justice Hughes is by Hans Schleretch, noted German artist. Says Rackets Scourge Sins Philadelphia, —(UP)—Racketeering in all walks of life was held as a scourge for the sins of manknid by the Rev. Dr. Floyd W. Tomkins, rector of the Church of the Holy Trinity, on fashionable Rittenhouse Square, before deputies attending the convention of the Diocese of I Pennsylvania.

GERMANY BUILDS CIRCLE OF LARGE RADIO SYSTEMS — Construction of System Designed To Eliminate Outside Interference Berlin —(UP)—Germany is preparing to defend the air above her territory against invasion by foreign radio stations. By the end of this year, she will have completed a preparatory "circle of defense" in the form of five I new 75 kilowat broadcasting stations which, with the two already in operation, will effectively cut out interference from French, Italian, English, Polish, or the powerful Soviet stations? The program of the great Teletunken company forsees the possibility of a full dozen stations in the coming years. One Station Functioning On the east border, at Heilberg, near Koenigsberg one high powered station is already functioning ready to answer the new station at Warsaw, or the Russian plant if necessary. Another 75-kilowatt plant will be installed at Breuslau this year. Leipzig and Munich also are scheduled for super stations, and the circle'will be completed when Langenberg, at Cologne is raised from 15 to 75 kilowatts. The Berlin station, Koenigswusterhausen, is due to be raised from 35 kilowatts. The pride of the Telefunken company, a new super-plant at Muehlacker between Stuttgart and Karlshuhe, has been opened and has already caused com-1 I plaints from neighbor countries, but | it has served its purpose in keeping the German air closed for national programs. Muehlacker can, if necessary,! double the 75 kilowatts of its normal power. The antenna, which is 100 meters high and 200 meters long is the vertical cage corm grounded! in a net work of buried copper I wires. The station gets its power from a three-phase current net of 15,000 volts and 50 cycles, Plate tension is supplied by rectifiers, or high voltage direct current machines. The valves are also heated by direct current machines. The transmitter is seven stage with secondary circuit. The output stage consists of 20 water-cooled 20 KW type valves. There are no batteries in the station. It broadcasts on a wave length of 360.1 meters. Trying New Tube Telefunken experts are experimenting with a special lOOkilowatt tube which would do of five of the present type. It is intended to install four of them in the Muehlacker station, replacing the ones there now, as an experiment. Radio has grown by leaps and bounds in Germany in the past few years. The last report of the Deutsche Rundfunk Gesellstiaft, official broadcasting company in which the government ’owns 51 per cent of the stock .shows that some 3,500,000 owners of receiving set pay a lii

cense of two marks a month each. The company now owns some 28 stations, and with licenses increasing undoubtedly will be able to extend its super-power program with- 1 out financial difficulties. _n_ King Snake Kills Rattler Buckeye Ariz, —(UP)— Harry I — ■
