, GOVERNMENT GIVEN PROPERTY OF CHURCH IN MEXICAN STATE (By Associated Pr-8) MEXICO CITY, Jan. 27. The supreme .court's . decision in the "La Piedad" ease whereby Catholic church property in the state of Puebla has been turned over to the government, is asserted by the newspapers here lo be of vast importance, inasmuch as it establishes a preceedent for future investigations into church holdings) with their possible reversion to the eovernment. ' The Sociodad de La Piedad" (socity of piety) was organized several years ago with headquarters in the citv of Puebla and administered vast holdings in that state. In March, 1915, civil action was brought against the society in which claim was made that it was merely a mask for the real holders, tho Catholic clergy in the state of Puebla, who under the federal constitution are not allowed to own or administer such property. Claim Law Violation The state courts ruled against the society, maintaining that the property was "Irregularly" obtained in violation of the federal and state laws and ordered that the holdings revert to the care of the federal secretary of the treasury, who would administer inem and use the funds for any worthy public enterprise. . Then followed various legal proceedings with' the society attempting to retain the properties. But in April, 1318. . President Carranza by decree ordered - their immediate reversion, whereupon the society introduced amparo proceedings in the supremo court, which was its only recourse under the circumstances. The case was not taken up until two weeks ago. when the supreme court heard arguments and eventually pave its decision yesterday by a vote -.t 6 to 3, sustaining the findings of Ihe lower courts and ordering the immediate nationalization of the society's holdings, which are variously estimated as representing a value of from 15,000,000 to 20.000.000 peso;!.

Walter Ratliff to Speak to Indianapolis School Walter Ratliff has accepted an invitation to address the students of Shortridge high school of Indianapolis, next Tuesday. Mr. Ratliff will lecture about birds. He will take with him over 40 mounted specimens with which he will illustrate his talk. Mr. Ratliff has completed his report to tho government upon the birds of I Eastern Indiana. His report shows that the number of robins is increasing each year. Sparrows, the report Bays, are decreasing in number, each year, owing to the care that is being taken of hawks .and owls. These birds of prey kill the sparrows but do not molest the singing birds. The number of warblers in this section of the country is decreasing, the report adds. TEACHERS COMPLETE SEMESTER REPORTS Silence reigned in the high school halls Thursday, but back of every class room door teachers labored industriously completing final reports of the fall semester's work. At noon the faculty gathered in the lunch room for an hour to observe the annual mid-dav luncheon. They re- , sumed their efforts shortly after, and j planned to hand in detailed reports to Principal Bate by the end of the day. Friday morning the former students of the school will return for their promotions and will make out their programs for the spring term, beginning Monday. Students entering high school Monday will go to the school Friday afternoon to prepare their programs for the coming term. NO FIVE-CENT LOAF IN SIGHT, SAY BAKERS Tivnrts frnm' Kpw York npwsnanprs who nave mvesugciieu me claims jl the production of a five-cent, loaf of bread at a profit to the baker, show that it is impossible at the present price of flour and the" cost of labor. John F. Hildebrand, president of the Schulze Bread company, submitted figures to show that no baker could produce bread at. five cents a loaf and f.lill make a profit of a cent and a half to two cents on a loaf. Investigators gave credence to the figures of Mr. Hildbrand after they had made a careful study of the subject. The claim of any baker to produce bread at five cents a loaf without los ing money on the charge was declared to be ridiculous by the New York men who conducted the investigation. Conditions elsewhere in the United States. thiy said, were identical with those in New York City, and the prospects of a five cent loaf was out of the question until pre-war conditions had been restored. Friends Will Instruct at Yearly Meetings Charles Dudley, pastor of the Friends church at Lewisville, Ind.. was to have arrived in Richmond Thursday, preparatory to a trip to Kansas Yearly meeting, where he will spend two monlhs giving illustrated lectures.

A. Long company, of Union City, for money due. Wallace asserts that the sum of $6,516.39 is due the Long Buttermilk company from the J. A.

Long company refuses to pay the same. , Wallace claims that Allan Rice, Union City, who was also named as receiver for the Buttermilk company, refuses to join with him in filing suit against the Long company for the recovery of the debt.. He asks the court to grant him permission to bring suit as one receiver for the collection of the money due. Revise Premiums.

In underground galleries heretofore unvisited by white men a human skeleton has been discovered in Great Crystal Cave in Hart county, says a report from there today. The explorers also found a great natural cathedral which, it is said, will rival the wonders of Mammoth Cave. An avenue, half a mile long and almost as level as a boulevard, was found. The dome of 'the natural structure rises 200 feet above the bed of the cave. The skeleton was unearthed on a terraced lodge above the floor of a gallery beneath a pile of drift. The discoverer was Floyd Collins, on whose farm the cave is situated. The skeleton was left where it was found and Dr. E. D. Turner of CaVe City iwas called to examine it. He pro nounced it that of an aborigine and perhaps of a race that preceded the Indians in Kentucky.

At times the air rushed out of the bole with a singing sound. With dynamite the opening was made large enough for a man to descend with a ladder. The first explorer thought he had found unexplored recesses of Mammoth Cave. The cave is about 11 miles from Cave City and is near Green- river. It is . nine miles from the main entrance ! of Mammoth Cave but is a separate cavern. JAP LEADER SEEKS NAVY RESTRICTION Fy Associated PresM TOKIO, Jan. 27. Resolutions suggesting that Japan approach the world powers in the interest of an agreement relative to restriction of armaments have been submitted to the Kensei-Kai, or opposition party, by Yukoi Ozaki, a member of the organization and an advocate of curtailment of military and naval programs in this country. He asks that the resolution be submitted for passage to the Japanese diet. The conservative organ Jiji Shimpo says the majority of the members of the opposition party are opposed to the project on the ground that it is idealistic and i practicable. The existing international situation, in the opinion of this newspaper, renders assurance of permanent peace difficult, it being pointed out that America's refusal to join the league of nations, makes this fact quite evident. "Japan has grave responsibilities in maintaining the peace in the Far East," the newspaper declares, "and must complete and amplify her national defense. The 'Naval Holiday' idea, held. in the United States and Great Britain is not based upon motives which guar.';.ntee future peace, but upon curtailment of growing armament expenditures. It is questionable, therefore, whether M. Ozaki's proposition is feasible at present." Japan Protests Building With American Capital (By Associated Pross) TOKIO. Jan. 27. Janan will enter a pretest, against tho construction with American capital of a large wire- ; less station at Shanghai and branches j at Tien Tsin, Chi-Fu, and Harbin, says : the newspaper Niehi Nichi, of this city. , This action will be based on the claim j that the work would infringe upon concessions granted Jnpan, authorizing this country to build wireless plants : at points in the interior of China. j The artificial eye is by no means a modern invention.
