• STUDENTS SAY
REGULATIONS
ARE CHILDISH
EDINBURGH, Scotland, Aug. 16
(by Associated Press).—Young women
students of the University of Edin
liilgh have revolted against what they
regard as “childish” restriction in the
use of latch keys after the regulation
* hour for closing the hall in which they
live.
Thirty-three students of Masson
hall, one of the numerous hostels in
which women students reside, have
gone on record as refusing to obey
instructions regardirg the use of the;
night keys. The girls assert that they
are being treated as children rather
than as young women well able to
take care of themselves.
The protest resulted in a petition to
university requesting a change in
the warden of the hall. The view of
the management is that too much lib
erty was given the girls under the
previous regime and that unless they
alter their petition, the girls must
leave the hall at the end of the ses-,
sion.
The Pall Mall Gazette of London
in commenting on the incident says:
“With the merits of the particular
& case we are not concerned but there
is a principle involved which sooner
or later will have to be decided.
When women won their right to com
pete with the men in the professions
they practically won all the rights
-« that appertain to the acquirement
and the practice of those profes
sions. Those who imagine that all
young women will submit to the ex
ercise of authority which would not
be tolerated by their brothers, make
a great mistake which, if it is per
sisted in, will do an immense amount
of harm, for opposition to liberty is
the surest fosterer of license.”
ALLEGED THAT
' CUBAN ESTATE
STOLEN
SAN JUAN. Porto Rico, Aug. 16 (by
Associated Press).—Extradition pro
ceedings brought by the Cuban consul
against Rafael Marterell, a Cuban busi
ness man here, reveal what is alleged
to be a remarkable case of intrigue
and impersonation to obtain a $250,
000 estate.
The estate belonged to a Porto Ri
can, Manuel Fernando Fernandez Vega
of San Juan, and the story of the al
leged plot goes back to the days of
the Cuban revolution, wrhen Vega and
Martorell were said to have been com
rades-in-arms in Cuba. Vega was
'^killed in battle, but it is alleged that
^•ord of his death never reached his
father in Porto Rico and valuable
property later was bequeathed him.
The present proceedings are based
upon an allegation that Martorell per
suaded Juana Maria Valdes Suarez and
Manuel Antonio Fernando Fernandez
Vega falsely to represent themselves
as the widow and son of the deceased
Vega. It is further alleged that, in
1917, in connection with these repre
sentations, Martorell committed fraud
in the municipal court at Regia and
also before a notary at Havana, Cuba
and by such means succeeded in hav
ing all the rights to the estate of
Vega conveyed to him.
The extradition suit occupied the
federal court here for the greater part
a wreek and resulted in Judge Ham
ilton ordering the translation into
English of all papers in connection
with the case. Martorell, meanwhile,
** w’as released on $1,000 bail.

TRAVELERS IN
LEVANT HAVE
DIFFICULTIES
_
CONSTANTINOPLE, Aug. 16 (by
Associated Press).—Travel in the
Levant has become so difficult that
hotels in nearly all the larger cities
are crowded with persons waiting for
steamer and railway accomodations.
Strikes in Bulgaria, Serbia and in
Italy, together with the lackt of
through trains and the impossibil
ity of getting checked baggage
through because of theft, have forced
travelers to rely chiefly on steamers
to French ports. The steamer lines
have also been badly disorganized by
labor troubles and most ships are
many days overdue and behind in all
of their schedules.
Although the United States shipping
board has many ships in Constantino
ple and’other large eastern ports, it
has no regular passenger sailings and
women are not permitted to travel
on most of the shipping board boats
unless they are on government ser
vice. Consequently Americans have a
great difficulty in getting through
sailings to America. Major E. E.
Booth, who wras formerly with the
shipping board in Paris, has now been
transferred to Constantinople as a
director of shipping board affairs in
the near east and is endeavoring to
get changes effected which will make
travel easier to and from America.
F. C. Tobey, representing the Har
riman line, which is about to estab
lish sailings to the Black sea, was in
Constantinople recently and said it is
likely that the line will establish reg
ular monthly passenger sailings from
New York to the Levant.

NEW CREED IS I
PRODUCED BY
VICKSBURG, Miss., Aug. 16 (by
Associated Press).—A newspaper man
here, Charles W. Miller, city editor
of the Herald, has compiled “An
American Creed,” consisting of pas
sages from the Old and New Testa
ments. The selections, transposed and
arranged in such a manner as to pre
serve the continuity of the creed un
broken to the end, are said by Mr.
Miller to contain “the wholesome
truths handed down from the prophets,
the Saviour and the apostles.”
There are seven quotations from
the Old Testament and 21 from the
New Testament making a total of
more than 300 words in the creed.
It begins with the words of Timothy,
Godliness with contentment is great
gain. For we brought nothing in to the
world, and it is certain we can carry
is introduced by a passage from Mal
nothing out.” The second paragraph
achi. “Have we not all one Father?
Hath not one God created us? Why
do we deal treachedously every man
against his brother by profaning the
covenant of our Father?” The Creed
"Now unto the King Eternal, Immortal
closes with these words from Timothy,
*
Invisible, the only Wise God, be Honor
and Glory for Ever and Ever.”
W. F. Bond, state superintendent of
oanpatinn in Afictcicsirmi writinp' tn thp
compiler, said: “This is a splendid
creed, and we should like very much
to have a copy in the hands of every
school child in the state.”
Mr. Miller, who has been a news
paper man more than 30 years, said:
i “In this age of Godless selfishness,
the tendency of the times is running
steadily and rapidly into a state of
| unrestricted license, regardless of a
high standard of life. Something is
needed to assist in turning the atten
tion of old and young to their duty
to God and their neighbors. The Holy
Bible will give the correct answer
to every conceivable question that can
be framed by man. It is the rule and
guide for humanity.”
