HUNGARY CASTS
COVETOUS EYE
AT SLAVOKIA
BUDAPEST, Aug. 23 (by Associat
ed Press).—Those* who charge there
is a movement afoot for Hungary to
regain Slovakia, now part of Czecho
slovakia, or Transylvania, point to
the food and munition stores being
accumulated as evidence to support
their contention.
It is said, there is now in Hungary,
American canned food worth more
than $1,000,000 ready for army use.
Twenty-eight war tanks and large
quantities of rifles have been received
and large supplies of munitions have
been manufactured, ostensibly for
the Polish forces but the Poles have
complained that these have not
reached the anti-Bolshevik forces.
Whatever secret intentions some
elements may have, it is said, it is
apparent that Hungary is strengthen
ing its armed forces to be in a posi
tion to assume a menacing attitude
toward Austria, should the Vienna
government attempt to take over
Western Hungary or to combine with
Poland should communism become
dangerous among the Czechs.
KING OF ITALY
OMES
FOR PEASANTS
ROME, Italy, Aug. 23 (by Associ
ated Press).—Commendatore Lusig
noli, the new head of the housing
commission, with a touching be
lief in the goodness of human nature,
celebrated his appointment by send
ing an appeal to the aristocracy of
Rome, asking them to allow any
spare rooms in their splendid old
palaces to be rented out to some of the
weary seekers after houseroom in the
Eternal city.
All with one consent began to make
excuse. King Victor, however, was
an exception. He has already made
ten new apartments for humble fam
ilies in the large stables near the
Quirinal palace which his father,
King Humbert, kept full of horses,
but which, since the accession of the
present king, have always been more
or less empty. At an expense of
nearly $200,000 he plans to construct
39 more apartments.

WORLD SUNDAY '
SCHOOL PLANS
ARE OUTLINED
TOKIO, Aug. 23 (by Associated
Press).—Plans for five large pageants
to be given in Tokio during the
World’s Sunday School convention in
October are now being worked out.
The first of the pageants will be the
“City Beautiful,” staged under the
direction of Miss Olive Hodges and
Miss Hazel Yerry of the Yokohama
Y. W. C. A. Children of the Sunday
schools of Yokohama will make up the
cast for the number, in which about
$1,000 worth of costuming will be used.
These costumes will be brought to
Japan by Prof. Augustine Smith of
Boston university, who will be in gen
eral charge of the pageants.
Mrs. John M. Hager of Tokio will
be in charge of the second pageant,
“The Rights of the Child.”
“The Torch Bearers,” the third
pageant, will be a symbolical repre
sentation of the modern religious edu
cational movement. It will be rich in
electric lighting effects.
Other pageants will be “The Sunday
School from Bethlehem to Tokio,” and
“The Court of Christianity.”

JAPAN CAUSES
GREAT WORRY
TOKIO. Aug. 23 (by Associated
