DISARMAMENT PACT NECESSARY TO AVOID BANKRUPTCY, CLAIM (By Aasoctated Press.) WASHINGTON; Feb. 7. An international agreement :for- limitation of armaments Is" -absolutely", essential to
"TIPPIE"
the avoidance of bankruptcy by some
of the more. Important nations of the world with ; its, attendant measureless confusion and -distress Representative Mondell of - Wyoming, ' Republican house leader declared today before the house naval, committee. "If an agreement Js not reached in the near future. Mr..' Mondell said, the fault will be that America as in, former days the fault was that of . Germany. He added, however, that there was no time to work out the problem before the chance in . administrations next month. ' " . Urges Action. j "The fault will.be ours," he asserted, "because as we are the only great nation which could, maintain enormous establishments on land and sea without bankruptcy, without being condemned to bear indefinitely and add to today's frightful load of national debt, it is our duty to lead the way toward relief from the present and future burdens of war like expenditures which irksome and oppressive, to us, would be unbearable to other nations. "More than that; it is our, duty to lead the way because strangely enough we are the only great nation that since the world war has officially taken a position favorable to the increase . rather than the decrease of armaments and warlike expenditures, features and the one nation in which, I fear, re is a really dangerous sentiment in favor of increases rather than decreases of , military establishments; a sentiment limited, it is true, to the number of people openly avowing it, but a sentiment nevertheless deeply planted, shrewedly calculating, I and very persistent." Attacks Departments. Mr, Mondell attacked the executive departments of the government for1 their advocacy of increased naval and military "fortes and assailed particularly Secretary Daniels proposal for a navy second to none. -, "We havp not followed Secretary Daniels' ambitious program", he said; j "we shall not follow it. But that program is a message that goes out to all the world from alleged peace loving, non-militaristic America as the agreements for disarament. Complete disarmament is not possible and one of the most effective ways in -which to head off, thwart, sidetrack and defeat X reform movement is through urging it in a manifestly, impracticable way." SOUTH POLE PICTURE ; IS FIRST MOVIE SEEN BY PRINCESS JULIANA (By Associated Press) Tiiw. MAfiTTV PVh 7. The little . . ........ , . - . -w , 1 T- ! 1 .1 r I l rincess juuana, ouiy i-uuu ui vucci Wilhelmina and Prince Consort Henry who may one day succeed to the throne of the Netherlands, has just been permitted to see her first moving picture show. She is 11 years old and is being reared in the sheltered fashion characteristic of the home life of Queen Wilhelmina. The little Princess, however, is beins trained in music and other arts as well as in the duties of a housekeeper. Her first moving picture show was of the educational type, a South Pole picture. Queen Is Reserved. Queen Wilhelmina rarely appears at fetes, public receptions or patriotic celebrations. In fact, . she is seldom seen in public except when walking through the woods or driving in one ot her carriages or automobiles. She prefers dignity to display and her residences could hardly be called palaces. Supporters of the continuation of the present form of government in Holland, a constiutional monarchy, oxpress few apprehensions over the postiiHilitv Viat this form mierht be chanaed even to that of a republic, which has been proposed in event mat me Princess Juliana should fail to give Holland a male heir to the throne. Dutch officials say that the House of Orange is deeply rooted in the affections of the Dutch people and there are in the country millions who desire to adhere to the present form of government.

Protected By . George Matthew . Adams AGED FRENCH AUTHOR ENTERTAINS CHILDREN AT COUNTRY HOME (By Associated Press) TOURS, France, Feb. 7. Anatole France, the aged French s-.thor and critic who has just announced his adherence to the Communist party of France, lives in a large villa, about25 minutes walk from the nearest tramway terminus running out of town and is known to the peasants for miles around for his democratic manner and his weekly Sunday receptions to which every one rich or poor, bourgeois or worker, peasant or city dweller is received on the same footing. Sunday is the day of rest for the peasants and time hangs heavily on the hands of the hardy tillers of the soil. The father often proposes the moving picture house but the hardworking, centime-saving mother balks at spending 10 to 12 francs for tickets to the cinema and tries to compromise by suggesting the Zoological gardens. Monday is "Cleanup" Day. ' The urchins, however, with visions of fruit cakes and candies and chocolates dispensed at the France .Villa often settle the argument: "Let's go to Anatole's," they beg. And to Anatole they go. The master, sitting in the large reception room, greets them all with cordiality and the children make themselves at home. The servants and the gardener generally spent the whole day Monday, in repairing the damage and clearing the wreckage left behind by Anatole France's Sunday visitors. Anatole France has long been a leading critic, is author of the opera "Thais" and of numerous works of fancy, fiction and satire. He is 76 years old, a member of the French academy, and his real name is Jacques Thibault. Served As Poilu. He served iu the world war as a private, having prevailed upon the premier to permit him to enlist. In October last he married Mile. Emma LaPrevotte. For many years has has been a member of the French Socialist party. He announced his adherence to the French Communists after the French Socialists in their convention at Tours, in January, voted to join the Third Internationale.

Kilauea, the great active volcano, 32 miles from this city, wilich for the past two years has been exhibiting a tremendous volcanic force, recently overflowed the rim of its active throat and burst forth in fresh activity and brilliance. Following weeks of steady rising of the lava, in the pit of Halemaumau, the "House of Fire," the molten column reached the rim and poured over it toward the southwest side of the great crater, while simultaneously another lava stream burst through the crater floor, 'some distance from the first. Hundreds of fire fountains began playing on the numerous lava lakes pnd sheets of flame gushed intermittently from beneath the crust surface. Along the main line of the old rift which the new flow is following, several lava cones, or small craters, have formed and these add to the weird scene with their thundering blasts of steam and fire. Except in minor ways the village life in India has not changed for 2,000 years.

PREHISTORIC SKULLS ARE FOUND IN CAVE
(By Associated Press) MANILA, P. I., Feb. 7. Nearly 50 skulls, believed to have belonged to people who inhabited the Island of Masbate, one of the Philippine group, just south of the Island of Luzon, at a much earlier period than the present Filipino race, were found in a cave recently on that island by Dr. W. D. Smith, chief of the mines division of the bureau of science of the Philippine government. It is the belief of Dr. Smith that the location of the cave was not known to the natives of the island, being far from any habitation. Besides the skulls many primitive implements of carpentry and warfare were collected and brought to Manila. These consisted of stone hatchets. axes, scrapers, pipes, pots and a amulet. Deer teeth and shells were also found in the cave, leading Dr. Smith to the conclusion that the primitive cave dwellers lived by hunting and fishing. Professor H. O. Beyer, of the anthropological department of the University of the Philippines, who has the skulls and other relics brought from the cave, expressed the belief that they belonged to the early Indonesian peoples, who emigrated to the Philippines in prehistoric times. Some of the skulls also were found to be artificially deformed, a custom of deforming the head artificially having prevailed in some parts of Europe in very early times. INVESTIGATE SCHOOLS CLAIMING TO TEACH MOVING PICTURE ART (By Associated Press) NEW YORK, Fe'b. 7. Schools claiming to teach the art of motion picture acting must in the future be a bit care ful and see that they really teach the ) art, instead of luring embryo screenstars and their money to so-called studios, where the money remains while the would-be dramatic artists return to the prosaic typewriter or kitchen. This was brought out when it was learned that assistant District Attorneys Owen W. Bohan and Frederick Sullivan have started a sweeping Investigation of such schools and concerns that advertised in the "helpwanted columns of newspapers for chorus girls or motion picture people. The attorneys say they intend to put out of business any such concerns which mislead the girls into expecting immediate employment and they have begun investigation of several which appear suspicious. The "students" of these schools, say the attorneys, are usually girls. The investigation was instigated by Frank P. Donovan, who said he was a former motion picture director. He said he personally visited one such school and found some prospective artists acting before a real camera, except it was minus a film. The whole proceedings, he declared, were a farce to anyone who knew anything about motion pictures. Three girls swore out affidavits saying they had been orally promised positions with big film companies, but thus far they had not seen even a train bound for Los Angeles. District Attorney Bohan said these schools were not licensed, and that although their contracts did not promise jobs with motion picture companies, they usually painted the pros pective student's future in glowing i terms in order to obtain the $25 necessary to make a screen star. IOWA SOLONS SAVE TIME BY NEW SYSTEM OF ELECTRIC VOTING (By Associated Press) DES MOINES, Feb. 7. Representatives in tbe Iowa legislature vote their opinions on roll call now with their fingers. No longer does the clerk call the roll and the member vote with his lungs. One result of the change is a saving of 15 minutes to half an hour in taking a roll call vote. When a question is put to a vote every representative may vote at the same time. It is difficult for any to wait and see what some one else will do and let his vote follow. Is Complete Record Since the session two years ago an electrical device has been installed in the house, and already has been used. On each member's desk is a little device to which he carries a key. No two keys are alike. There are three small lights to show him how he is voting. When the question is put the legislator inserts the key and then manipulates the devie. What he does is not only recorded for his own benefit by the light on his desk, but shows on a board above the speaker's head. The members all are named cn the board. Opposite the name are three lights and a slot If his vote is "aye" a red light shows, and a "Y" appears in the slot. A blue light shows and the letter "N" appears for a negative vote.

MEXICO CITY BOMB PLOTTERS SEARCHED FOR BY GOVERNMENT MEXICO CITY, Feb. 7. Police authorities and government secret service agents were engaged today in collecting evidence which might lead to the arrest of men who bombed the residence of the archbishop of Mexico and the building occupied by Juergens and company, an American jewelry manufacturing concern in this city, yesterday morning. Four men are under arrest, but it is known several others were implicated in the two crimes. The residence of the archbishop was badly damaged, but the Juergens building was virtually destroyed by the force of the explosion of the infernal machine placed in front of it. Its en tire street frontage was wrecked and windows of houses across the street were blown in. Four Men Suspected. The upper story of the factory, which is located in the resident section of the city, was occupied by the families of the owners, but no one was injured. Information gathered by the police would seem to indicate that four men did the actual work of setting off both bpmbs. A small car was seen to approach the archiepiscopal residence shortly before 4 o'clock yesterday morning. It stopped a moment while one man alighted, and then started off at a rapid pace, being well down the street when the explosion occurred. What appeared to be the same car, or one of similar make, stopped in front of the Juegens factory an hour later, and then it hurried away in the direction of Guadalupe. Four men were said to have ridden in each car. Radical activity bas been increasing in Mexico City recently, and newspapers here say that two communist congresses will be held this month, one in Mexico City and the other in Tampico. The newspapers also have reported the arrival during the past week of a number of agitators, two of whom have been characterized by El Univer sal as being "delegates sent to Mexico by Niko'ai Lenine to work among laborers in the interests of the Third Internationale of Moscow." Charles Sehg, manager of the Juergens factory, declares radical agitators have been exceedingly bold at his plant, having several times stationed themselves at the entrance to the building and threatened the 200 employes with violence if they dared to enter. This aggressive attitude led to the recent closing down of the plant
NEWSETTLEMENTOF IRISH QUESTION IS RUMORED IN DUBLIN
(By Associated Press) DUBLIN, Feb. 7. Interesting rumors are circulating in Dublin today with regard to fresh efforts the government is reporting to be making to effect a settlement with southern Ireland. The belief is growing that an important development may come to light when praliament reconvenes. According to one report, the government is trying to bring the Ulster leaders into line with a well formulated scheme to persuade the south to accept the partition provided for in the home rule act, and work un-, der it. This version of the reputed plans has it that the prize to be offered for acceptance is a grant of full financial autonomy to both sections of Ireland. This would be coupled, so far as the south Is concerned, with an offer to release the political prisoners and grant amnesty to Irish Republicans generally, including the members of tbe Irish Republican army, and even men "on the run." Negotiations Now On. Negotiations to this end are now proceeding, it is said, between Mr. Lloyd George, the prime minister, and Sir Edward Carson, Ulster leader in the British parliament, on the outcome of which depends whether the plan will be formally announced. Other concessions are said to be contemplated, particularly with regard to the amount of taxes payable to England under the new act. It is generally understood that the attempts made by Sir Hamar Greenwood, chief secretary for Ireland, to secure the nomination of candidates for for the proposed southern parliament have thus far signally failed. As supporting this belief, and also the reports that the government has renewed its peace efforts, it is pointed out that Sir Hamar, who usually is easily approached, by the press, has during the past three weeks resolutely refused to be interviewed. WAR TIME ROUTINE ON BATTLESHIPS OF U. S. ATLANTIC FLEET (By Associated Press) ON BOARD THE U. S. S. PENNSYLVANIA, Feb. 7. By Wireless to The Associated Tress. War-time .routine was being observed today on board the battleships and destroyers of tbe United States Atlantic fleet The warships, which left Callac late Saturday, were steaming southward along the Peruvian coast to meet the United States Pacific fleet, which left Valparaiso, Chile, on Saturday, headed north. The two squadrons were expected to meet at any time in a sham battle which would closely approximate conditions encountered in war-time on the high seas. President Augusto B. Leguia, president of Peru, has sent to Admiral Henry B. Wilson, commander of the Atlantic fleet, a message expressing bis gratification at the visit of the fleet to Peruvian waters, felicitating the admiral upon the good impression made by officers and men and the beneficial effect the call of the fleet at Callac will have upon relations between Peru and the United States. Is Doubly Significance. "The coming of the great Atlantic fleet to our waters," said President Leguia's message "was a demonstra tion of double significance, which was important from a moral and material viewpoint. First, its cordial visit personifies that of the great nation which throughout the whole world has left impressions of respect for right and justice. Officers and crews demonstrated by their gallant and friendly actions the proof of affecting toward Peru. The presence of the fleet likewise was a demonstration of the heights the young and vigorous North American republic has reached in science, industry and the arts. This development is a guarantee for human progress and well being, since the United States uses its strength enly for serving ideals and supporting legitimate aims. Thi3 is the ineffable remembrance which the friend ly visit of the Atlantic fleet leaves with men and the Peruvian people.
