MENTION MRS. LINGELBACH
,
j Probability of b content over the
election of a new president of the
Board of Education to succeed Simon
Gratz, who resigned nt the Inst mcet
1, is seen when the board holds Its
monthly meeting tomorrow. Several
members of the board have been men
tioned as possible nominees, Including
Mr. William E. Ungelbach, William
Bowcn, vice president of the board;
Joseph W. Catharine, Thomas F. Boyle
aad Harry T. Stoddart.
"Wo should select at this time," said
Mr. Stoddart, "the strongest and most
aggressive member that we have. The
post Is one of the most Important in
the whole school system by rcm-on of
the responsibilities and the influences
which the board head has.
"We want a president who is nble
and willing to do tlio hard work that
is ahead in the important matters that
will shortly come up. He should be
well educated and able to go before the
people and represent the board effec
tively on public occasions. It is tlmo
that the board took a more active part
in acquainting the public with its prob
lems, its alms and its achievements. For
that reason the new head should not
only be a good specchmaker. but one
ablo to write his own speeches.
Dr. Frank P. Graves, deun of the
School of Education of the University
of Pennsylvania, also pointed out the
opportunity which the election of to
morrow presents to the board. "Wo uro
now. ' he snlcl. in tne miasc 01 tnc
greatest period of educational recon
struction that the State and city have
ver known. The election of a strong
man as head of the board now, ono with
Yialon, would mean a great deal in the
lurmerunce 01 una ihum""-
Mayor Gives Order
to Speed Bridge
Continued from rare One
along this line must be prepared for
Council as well as for condemning
streets and making changes in sewers.
So the City Solicitor plays his part.
Broad Proposition
"It is a great, big. broad city. State
and national proposition that we have
In front of us. Each and every depart
ment is doing its part, not only to pro
mote the bridge but nlso to safeguard
the city's interests.
"The Mayor Ls strongly for the bridge
and has been so from the beginning of
the agitation., Ho has insisted, how
ever, on every Jegal safeguard, includ
ing limitation of the costs of the pre
liminary survey, now completed, to
1100,000, n sum within which, although
400,000 was provided, the engineers
have completed their work.
"The question of design and span
was one which had to be taken up with
the Federal Government. Tho Mayor
pressed this matter before the Inter
state and Foreign Commerce Cominittea
and the War Department. These were
precautionary measures essential to a
r proper start on the permanent work.
Sees Preliminary Work Indorsed
'"The measures necessarily consumed
tlmo, but the manner in which the gen
eral public has received the plana of
tho Board of Enslneer. seems to be an
Indorsement of the six months' hard
work which has been done on tho pre
liminaries. "Now we are up to the bridge itself.
Preliminary work of the engineers is
done. They have been paid and only
the clerical force of the bridge com
mission remains on the payroll until
the report of the engineers is acted
upon. It was thought wise to give
the public a week to consider the report.
When the hearings are over, the bridge
commission will meet and act on the
report.
"There will be no delay as every day
Bow lost will be a day of expense to
the three parties to the agreement.
The commission will have to decide
whether the plans us submitted by the
engineers shall be approved or disap
proved. Then will come tho selection
of permanent engineers and the organ
ixation of a permanent staff
Can Start Work Immediately
"If the engineers making the pre
liminary report arc re-employed they
announce they can begin work almost
immediately on the caissons which nre
to be run down to bedrock to support
tnc pters ana anchorages at the pier
head lines on either side of the river iu
the 1750-foot span.
"In any event whether we como to
an ugreement with the old engineers or
employ new ones, it will take omc
months to prepare the working plans
before the contracts are advertised for.
But hincfi tho caissons can be com
menced earh . nnd the hold-over clerical
force ls now considering caion plans,
all available time will be utilized."

SAYS HE WAS MISQUOTED
By tit Associated Press j
London, .Tune 13. Rear Admiral!
William 8. Sims said this morning he'
had riot received the cable message from '
Secretary of the Navy Denbv rnncellnsM
the remainder of his leave of absence
and ordering him to report as soon as
possible in Washington.
He left his hotel early in order to
fulfill n day of crowded social engage
ment. He has no further public speak
ing engagements before his departure
from England on Wednesday, and there
Is nothing to indicate that he intends
adding anything to his side of the de
partmental incident until his return to
America.
The Admiral told an interviewer that
he believed Secretary Denby's second
message had been fllsnntht Wiu -f
Admiral Sims' delayed response to the
nrst one asKing ir no hnil been cor
rectly quoted in his nddress here last
week, in which he criticized Americans
in sympathy with the Irinh Republic.
Blames Cable for Dolay
Admiral Sims insisted that the delav
In his reply wns du only to delay In
transmission and declared that he made
his reply within nn hour after receipt
of the cablegram.
Admiral and Mrs Sims have been in
vited to dine this evening with United
Mates Ambassador and Mrs. Hnrvey.
The Duke of Connaught and other no
table ncrsonaee are nmonir the Inrittvl
guests.
The editorial silence of tho London
daily press on tho Sims incident was
first broken today by comments bv two
papers. The Daily News declares It
takes no pleasure in any case in the
incident.
"The admiral's speeches seem to us
mischievous and Indefensible," says the
iNew-s. "Their cfTect in this country ond
Ireland is deplorable, and the repercus
sion In America is to the highest degree
undesirable. The American Navy
Office could do nothing else but what it
has done, though it might perhaps have
done it with n thought less truculent.
The only good feature of the whole
affair is the possibility that it may
erve as a warning of extreme caution,
which it is imperatively necessary pub
lic officials, both British and American,
should display in dealing with the Irish
question."
"The Man Not Afraid"
The Daily Express, under the cap
tion "The Man Who Is Not Afraid to
Speak," ascribes the recall of Rear
Admiral Sims to the clamor of pro
Sinn Fein voters, and says :
"Admiral Sims ndds to his nnnnlsritv
among the remaining 80 per cent of
uoncsc-io-iioa Americans. He has
been reprimanded before for attempting
to promote good feeling between the
countries, nnd we hope he will be ngain.
Knowing him as we do, and aware of
the fact that his views are those of tho
majority, we believe he will do it again.
And so we wish him God-speed "
Washington, June 13. Rear Admiral
Sims' reply to Secretary Denby's de
mand for nn explanation of his Irish
American speech in London last week,
was received and issued nt the Navy
Department yesterday. It says:
"Statements attributed to me were
not correctly quoted. Context mis

wrong. Statement actually made was
substantially the same as repentedly

FOLK SAYS ARMS
IMP WORLD
Foresees Doom of Civilization if
War Preparedness Compe
tition Continues
HOPES FOR UNITED ACTION
By the Associated .Tress
Morgantown. W. Va.. June 13.
A
world hope has sprung up since tho
great war mat some kind of nn under
standing may be reached freeing the
nations from the burdens of nrmament
expenditures. Joseph W. Folk, former
Governor of Missouri, declared here to
na In n speech at the University of
West Virginia. Mr. Folk asserted thnt
it required no prophet to foretell "tho
end of nil" if peoples were to continue
their competition in nrmament which,
he said, had caused even the United
States to stagger under the lond.
The chief clement of strength welded
from the last war, Mr. Folk said, was
the spirit of service for the common
good. Pointing to tho heroism of men
in battle and the consolidation of women
In service rendered for the welfare of
all, the speaker asked if all this was
to be lost by failure to arrive at an
international arrangement to cease
spending a largo proportion of revenuo
for arms.
"Humanity cannot long continue to
carry the burden of the cost of war,
tn say nothing of the sacrifice of human
blood," said Mr. Folk. "Even the
United States, the richest of all nations,
is staggering under tho load of debt
caused by the war which mokes th
lot of the average man harder to bear,
and which, If not remedied, will loaJ
in time to the overthrow of civiliza
tion itself.
"Shall the nations go on competing
with each other in nrmament? If so.
it takes no.prophet to foretell the end
of ,, ' , ct Pn"lencc must mnke us
realize that, so long as other nations
are armed for offense, we must nrm
for defense. The only practical road
to disarmament is through international
agreement and that somo such under
standing among the nations may be
arrived at is a world hope, a hope of
mankind."

That these arc times to "try the met
tle of men's souls," but mnke up ideal
conditions for young college graduates to
leap out into their lifcwork, was tho
sentiment einressed by John M.
Thomas, president, in bis bnccalaureate
sermon yesterday.
-.iou are leaving college nna unumg
your nlaccN In the world in a most
difficult and trying time." Dr.Th5tins
said. "Thought is confused nnd un
certain. A spirit of depression nnd dis
couragement is in the air. The prob
lems of humnnity seem too vast ana
intricate for the minds at hand to solve
them. The wnr haH brought a great
disillusionment and we see that we arc
not so far alonir townrd a world of
happiness nnd peace ns we had before
imagined. It is a time that tries the
mettle of men's souls.
. "You arc fortunato that this Is true.
It is well for a man to face difficulty
in his vnnth. Knsn Is no friend of ours.
but hardship, trial, danger, temptation,
the utmost burden a man can stagger
under nnd not lose his spirit these are
bis truest friends.
I covet for vou each one the hardest
place he can find, for it is in the meet
ing of a task worthy of him and n
little larger! and more difficult than he
can ever accomplish to his satisfaction
thnt a man finds lasting joy."

zation of the school gave a concert nnd
later the Sixth Form gave scenes from
Shakespeare's "Midsummer Night's
Dream." At the closing ceremonies

Syracuse, June 13. Condemnation
of class hatred featured the baccalau
reate sermon delivered yesterday by Dr.
James Roscoe Day, who last week re
signed tho chancellorship of Syracuse
University.
"There is no trouble with the people
until tho idle agitator comes among
them to tench them that the prosperous
nave stolen wnat tney nave from the
less prosperous," Dr. Day said. "The
logic of which is that the poor arc
poor because they have not bad n square
chance to steal from their neighbors.
"There Is nothing more flattering to a
man than to tell him thnt Ills failures
in life are not due to himself but to
others, or to a wrong condition nnd
economy among his fellow men. It is
flattering, but it is false and fatal.
Wherever it has been reduced to prac
tice it has strewn its path with mire."

Who Caused Son's Death
New York, June 13. Standing by
the temporary grave of his five-year-old
son. Giuseppe, kidnapped and
thrown into the Hudson River when

of those enguged in foreign missionary
work was urged today by tho Rev.
Frnncls Shunk Downs, pastor of the
Market Stpmrc Presbyterian Church, of
Germantown, in nn nddress before the
Presbyterian ministers in Westminster
Hall.
"Tho loyalty of many of those in our
foreign missionary fields, as to their
teaching the religion that we stand for.
is under question in the minds of
mnny," said Dr. Uowus. "Wo owe it
to our missionaries and to tho heathen
whom we are trying to rench that all
charges be eurctully and fully investl
gated.
"There has also been too much of
u tendency ut home to soft pedal the
religion that wo stand for nnd to throw
rosewatcr ovor the situation. What wo
1 need aro ministers who shall be
prophets to apply religion to the needs
of today."
