chanics will bo Inaugurated in the four Michigan noxmal colleges next fall
Thomas E. Johnson, state superintend ent of public instruction, announced today. '. -.; It will be necessary to train teachers to operate motion picture machines to carry out plans already laid by the state for introducing motion pictures into the schools, according to Mr. Johnson. Next fall the state department of education will establish a distributing station for education films. The films are to be purchased outright by the state and rented to high schools. After the next school year it is planned to enlarge the cinema program by using not only purchasedfilms, but films depicting Michigan Industries and institutions, manufactured under the supervision of the. state department of education. . , Value Is Proved. According to Superintendent Johneon, preliminary tests have proved the educational value of films. Students in manual training classes, he asserts, pick up the rudiments of bench or lathn vnrlr mnnv tlmca faster if thev are first shown the processes of the work they are to undertake in pictures. - The same fact applies to natural history, botany, zoology, chemistry and physics, he states. Within a few years he expects that the motion picture phase- of education will have been developed to a point where literature and history will be taught through the medium of well acted plays on the screen. Mr. Johnson's idea of making motion pictures a vital factor in education already has been indorsed by the state administration. A fund has been granted him for the establishment of a distributing station for films next fall. He plans to ask the 1923 legis-j lature for a budget to runner develop the idea. SAYS WIRELESS MAY CAUSE DEAF TO HEAR (By, Associated Press) LONDON, July 10. Wireless, with all the manifold benefits already to its credit may enable the deaf to hear, thinks a writer in the current number of the Medical Press. If recent experiments with wireless telephony come up to expectation, he declares, then there is little need for the deaf to give up hope, for by means of "thermionic" valves the very deaf have been enabled to hear. The author records the case of a man of 50 who had been deaf for many years, so deaf that he could only hear the shouted voice. Nevertheless, be experimented with wireless telephony. It occurred to him that by increasing the number of thermionic valves in his receiver he might thereby raise the sound to a degree of intensity to be heard easily. This he did, working up gradually until he had five thermionic valves in his apparatus, with the result that he c4n now Rear his friends in Paris more plainly than he can a person sitting in' the room beside him. Also his hearing for the ordinary voice has become more acute The Marconi company's experts are using a valve similar to the thermionic on their "bonaphone," an instrument for imparting sounds to the brain by means of the bony parts of the crani um. It has enabled a large number of persons to hear who hitherto were deaf. Thought has been given in England to a universal language for interna tional radio communication, but no def inite conclusions yet have been reached. Questioned on this subject, Godfrey Isaacs, head of the Marconi Wifeless system, said he did not think Esper anto would do. "But, at the same time," he added, 'we are- keeping in view in connection with the scheme now under consideration for the estab lishment of wireless broadcasting sta. tions, the possibility of teaching lan . guages by wireless telephony. I think this will be a highly important part " of the educational action of our broadcasting programs. One foresees the engagement of eminent professors of languages for the purpose of wireless tuition." REPORT SAYS SUN'S ARMY IS DEFEATED PEKIN, China, July 10. American naval advices received here report that the forces of Sun Yat Sen, deposed president of China, were defeated in a battle fought July 9 near Canton, and that Sun escaped down the river toward the sea with three cruisers still remaining loyal to him. Advices received yesterday under a Canton date line recorded Sun Yat Sen's flight after a bombardment by Chen Chiung-Ming's forces and the blowing up of Sun's ammunition dump. Propose Using Wireless To Safeguard Miners WASHINGTON, July 10. A new use for wireless telephone in connection with mine-safety and mine rescue work, is proposed by the United States bureau of mines. The suggestion has been made that the rescue cars and trains stationed at various points throughout mining regions, be equipped with apparatus, , and that high power apparatus at the bureau's cafety stations and experimental laboratories in the regions be installed to broadcast hurry up messages in case of mine disaster. Aerials have been successfully installed on trains in Germany it is pointed out, and the bureau's rescue and training cars could easily be 60 equipped. In this way, it is said, not only could warnings and calls for aid be sent without delay to those points best equipped to offer aid, but mine rafety programs and other instructions could also be broadcast. Field engineers of the bureau have reported that the radio is already in wide use In the different mining centers. Chicago has one cold Btorage plant which will accommodate 21,000 tons of meat. . i

fBy Associated Press) MEXICO CITY. July 10. Freedom
of the press in Mexico is aa near a reality now as has been recorded dur ing the past half century, according to competent observers. Contrasted with the censorship day3 , of Huerta and Carranza, editors and correspond ents are enjoying almost unprecedent ed liberty, and President Obregon on several occasions has emphasized that newspapers and other publications are free to go as far as they like. The newspapers Omega and Las Noticias, the former a weekly and the latter a daily, lead the opposition to the administration and the vindictiveness which they display in almost every issue would not have been tolerated for more than one day during the Carranza regime, for instance. The more substantial newspaper of the capital spare no ink now in telling the reading public wherein they think the Obregon regime is at fault and even rank misquotations of conversations with the chief executive are allowed to pass with only a mild protest Claim No Censorship Foreign correspondents are told that there i3 no cable or mail censorship and if there is, it is so adroitly done that it has not yet been detected. President Obregon in one respect offers sharp contrast to his predecessor President Carranza. The present executive is much more approachable and has none of thealoofness of the former First Chief. He receives news papermen regularly every fortnight. and local reporters, many of whom have been with him on campaign, feel no hesitation in calling Chapultepec Castle by telephone to converse with the president. The newspaper interviews are extremely informal affairs, the president sitting at a little table in the center of a circle of reporters and correspondents. Refreshments are served and quite frequently the president relaxes and tells iively stories. EXPECT 75 KAYSEES TO GO TO MUNCIE The Richmond council of the Knights of Columbus will return the visit which was made some time ago by the Muncie council when several members of the local council journey to Muncie Monday night to attend the regular meeting of the Muncie organization. Arrangements have been. Wade for about 75 members of the local order to make the trip and the party will leave the clubhouse at 6:30 o'clock Monday evening. Father Walter J. Cronin, pastor of the local St. Mary's church, and John J. Craig, of the extension division of the University of Chicago, will speak at the meeting. Dr. Misener Appointed Government Surgeon Dr. W. L.

(By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, July 10. Taking care of Uncle Sam's disabled veteran? of the World war and fitting them for useful vocations, is a huge task, according to the Veterans' bureau, publishing accounts of the number of men undergoing vocational training. Up to May 1, the bureau s figures show, a total of 601,515 veterans had applied for vocational training, of which number 312,930 applications had been approved. In addition to the 30,000 factories and industrial organizations which are affording placement training to 36,704 veterans, there are 3,228 Institutions engaged in the work of remaking men who were disabled or partially disabled. Of this number there are 162 universities. 253 colleges, 98 state normal schools, 1,0.41 commercial schools. 244 public schools and 266 institutions teaching miscellaneous subjects. Of these 49 are government institutions. Number Doubles The number receiving istruction has almost doubled in the period from July. 1921, to last May, the bureau says. On July 1, 1921, there were 85,338 men actually taking vocational training, and on May 1, last, thero were 108,919. The number of those graduated, or
j declared rehabilitated, is constantly in
creasing, up to last juiy, s,uou men had been declared fit to take up new vocations, and since that time 7,51 veterans have been added to that number. Agriculture, the bureau adds, seems to be the most popular course preferred by the men, as there are now14,006 men under that course of in-T etructicn. The other courses which ' seem in greatest demand are commercial, professional, mechanical and electrical trades and the various various crafts. In the government schools alone which offer such courses, 4,674 veterans are enrolled.
