Experiences
(By Associated Press)
Washington, Nov. 14.-Possible ad
dition of railroad legislation to the
ship subsidy and other administration
measures on the program for the win-
ter in congress was indicated todgy
by White House developments.
Harding to Press Bill
Pres. Harding was said to have told
White House callers that he intend-
ed to press the ship subsidy bill
strongly in the house next week an
also through the senate and this it
the face of discouraging reports froir
Republican congressional leaders. The
president also made an appointment
with chairman Cummins, of the Sen-
ate inter-state commerce committee
to take up in a few days the question
of railroad legislation. Amendment
of the Esch-Cummins law to strength-
en the railway labor- board by giving
it power to enforce orders on railroad
officials and employees was reported
under contemplation.
Makes Plans for Special Session
The president today made partial
plans for the opening next Monday of
the extra session of congress. His
opening message which will be in'the
form of a personal address at a joint
session next Tuesday will be very
brief, he said, and will be devoted
principally to the ship subsidy bill.
The opening address also is expected
to urge speedy disposition of appro-
priation bills with a view to a cleanup
of all p'ressing business by March 3
and avoidance of an extra session next
spring.

Representative Fred A, Britten
Representative Fred A. Britten of
Illinois, has announced that one of his
first moves when congress convenes in
special session Nov. 22, will be to in-
troduce again the soldiers' bonus bill
with an additional provision to pay
the bonus by a tax on light wines and
bee:.
New York, Nov. 14.--Sun Yat Sen,
first provisional president of the Chi-
nese republic, deposed president of
South China and present leader of a
faction battling against the existing
Peking administration advises the U.
S, to "keep her hands off China."
This advice he gave to Dr. William
Hiram Foulkes, genieral secretary of
the Presbyterian New Era movement
who returned today after a three
months study of far eastern condi-
tions.
Declaring that China was grateful
to America for its disinterested work
and that this country has kept out of

DRIVEAPR OACHE S 0OA
Over $28,500 has been subscribed to
the Community fund drive according
to a statement given last night by
Karl Malcolm, general chairman of
the drive committee. The goal of the
drive is $45,608, the amount needed
to carry out the work of the associa-
tion for 1923.
Soliciting will be continued 'Ail
every home in Ann Arbor has been
reached. Team captains report that
more money has been subscribed over
practically every route than Kas se-
cured in the 1921 drive.
A banquet will be given to all 'mem-
bers of the teams Friday night which
will mark the formal end of the cam-
paign. Coach Fielding H. Yost will
be present at the banquet. The cap-
tain of the team that finishes and re-
ports its work first, the captain of the

succeeds in getting a pledge from ev-
ery person named on his list, will be
the guests of Coach Yost at the Mich-
igan-Wisconsin game Saturday.
Students' will not be solicited due
to an action taken by the Community

JUDGING TO BEGIN AT 9:30
O'CLOCK SATURDAY MORNING
Houses who wish to enter in thq
contest to determine the best decorat-
ed house for this week-end must have
their applications in the hands of the
Student council by tonight. Several
houses have already sent in their ap-
pications, and it is expected that the
greater number of those remaining
will sign up with the council today
The contest being conducted is un-
der the auspices of the Student coun-
cil and the Ann Arbor Chamber of
Commerce working together to pro-
duce a city that will be adequatel$
decorated for the Wisconsin-Michigan
game Saturday. Requests have been
.made by these bodies that the red and
white of Wisconsin be given nearly
equal prominence with the maize and
blue of Michigan.
A cup is being offered by the Stu-
dent council to the fraternity, sorority,
league house, dormitory, or any oth-
er house in which students are quar-
tered. Judging in the contest will
begin at 9:30 o'clock Saturday morn-
ing. The sole qualifications for the
decorating laid down by the council
is that all designing, decorating or
painting be done by students who are
members, residents or pledges of the
house.
In judging the decorations the
judges will take into consideration the
artistic harmony of the display, the
ingenuity and talent displayed, the
originality used, and the neatness of
the yard and surrounding street. Em-
phasis is laid on the fact that the
decorations count and not the natural
beauty of the house.
Stores in the business section will
also be judged in order to determine
which is best decorated.

DAMAGEI -MOUNTS
IN .CHILE QUAKE
Atacama Province Reports Death Toll
Exceeding 1,500; Frieirina
in Ruins
LACK OF CLOTHING, SUPPLIES
CAUSE THOUSANDS DISTRESS
(By Associated Press)
Santiago, Nov. 14.-Each hour brings
further details of the great disaster
to Chile caused by the earthquake
and the tidal wave, and each new re-
port adds to the list of dead and the
enormous damage already reported.
Advices this afternoon from Valle-
nar and the province of Atacama say
that the total dead recovered thus far,
at that place number 1,500, while the
adjoining town of Frieirina is in com-
plete ruins, the casualties not being
known.
An official compilation by the min-
ister of the interior, based on reports
received early in the day gave the
number of dead in six towns as 886
and the injured as 4,110. These towns
were Ballenar, Copiapo, Coquimbo, Hu-
asco, Chanaral and Frieirina. This
compilation therefore did not take in-
to accouft the hundreds of smaller
places within the radius of the earth-
quake which are shut off from com-
munication because of the breakdown
of telegraph lines.
Twelve hundred ,miles of the coast
line felt the effect of the great tidal;
waves which followed the earth
shocks and for a large-proportion of
their distance sea port towns and
villages were inundated for nearly
four days after the disaster. Thous-
ands of families are wandering about
the country. Their dlistress is great
for they have little clothing and sup-
plies.,
Again today severe earth tremors
were felt and strange illuminations
were observed last night over the sea
off La Serena and at Copiaco.
Research Club Meets Tonight
Members of the' Research club of
the University will hold their regulai
meeting at 8 o'clock tonight in the
Histological laboratory. The program
will consist of papers by Professor J.
H. Hanford of the English department,
on 'Milton and The Art of Love."
Professor W. H. Hobbs of the geology,
department on "The Growth of Moun-
tains on the Borders of the Pacific."
There will be a' council meeting at
7:30 o'clock preceding the regular
program.
Sir Basil Thomson, world-renown-
ed criminologist will speak at S o'clock
tonight In Hill 'auditorium on. "My
Experiences in Scotland Yard." He is
the fourth man to appear on the Uni-
versity Oratorical Lecture course this
season.
Scotland Yard, famous In detective
stories and in the newspapers as the
center of one of the greatest, crime
detecting organizations in the world,
will be revealed by the man who head-
ed the English Criminal investigatidn'
department from 1913 to 1921. Sir Ba-
sil went to Scotland Yard nearly a
year before the war began, recom-
mended by his long experience with
the British criminal which he 'iad
gaired through his service as execu-
tive in British prisons and through his
extensive work as a member of the
Scotland Yard force.
Controlled Traffic Between Countries
While the war was being conducted,
Scotland Yard had entire control of
all traffic conducted between England
and the Continent. Thus every one
of any rank traveling to any point
had to pass the observation of Sir
Basil's operatives.
Watches Radical Element
Since the war Sir Basil has been
given the important task'in England
of fighting the Red Peril. He was
required to keep a close watch over
the radical labor'parties in England iii
their relations with the Bolsheviki
junta of Russia and with the anarchist
leaders of Germany,,;Ito1j;~,inie, ai
Spain. He is recognized as one of the
great underlying fOrces in checking
the influx of the Red emissaries into
England. He labored under theats
against his life and the British preju-
dice against secret'service, particular-
Ily when the action is associated with
political interference with individual
freedom.
Sir Basil belongs to a. notable Eng-
lish family and is a son of the late
Archbishop of York. Receiving his
early education at Eaton, he after-
ward was graduated from New col-
lege, Oxford, when he entered the
British Government Colonial service.
During this period of government
work he was one of the leader in the
exploration of New Guinea. Later he
held official positions in' Tonga and
Fiji. in the South Sea regions.
Author of Famous Works
le then started his long work as
criminologist with the appointment to
the committee to reorganie several
of the British penal institutions. He
had experience which qualified him to
deal particularly with the more vio-
lent types of' crimi'nals.
Not only has Sir Basil Thomson
won fame as a criminologist, but also
as an author, 'his works including en-
tertaining accounts of his official ad-
ventures ;i Tonga in the South Seas
under the title, "The Diversions of a
Prime Minister." His other books are,
"South Sea Yarns," "A Court In-
trigue," The Indiscretions of Lady
Asenath," "Discovery of Solomon Is-
lands," "The Fijians," and "The Story
of Dartmoor Prison.
