"My policies were adopted but from four to six months late," Sims said. Sims Says Navy to Blame For Great Marine Loss The management reports that everything is all set for the big event; on the first floor here will be bally-hoo bands sawdust floats, canvas sideshow tents featuring a collection of freaks, Faro, Hit the Nigger Babies, Forty Niners.

CULLER WILL SPEAK ON NEAR EAST RELIEF Prof. Williams is in Charge of University Commission to Obtain Funds Lawrence's Quota is $4.100 Near East is in Most Destitute Situation of Any Country —Hoover A. J. Culler, member of the Near East Relief Commission, will speak at the noon day luncheon of the Y. M. C. A. Thursday. He has just returned from the Near East and so speaks authoritatively on the subject.

"The Near East is in the most destitute situation of any country or section of the world," says Herbert J. Brown, who looked carefully into the situation. It is reported by Colonel Haskell, the Allied officer in charge of that region, and Mr. Padlock, American Conul at Tabriz, that the suffering of a Muslim in relief is forthecoming innumerable deaths will result in the district. Those in charge of the relief say that whole herds of people are seen in the feda eating grass, because "the Lord had sent to Mr. Edward Todd, A. B., 18 son of Prof. J. E.
