1' S I* &? ?E $tH AGE TWO $ 1 HI NEW STYLE OF ARCHITECTURE Long Sought and Made Possible Only Through the Employment of Mod ern Reinforced Concrete. Planning a memorial church to be built entirely of concrete, an American architect introduces a novel mode of construction and claims to have found "what architects for centuries have failed to producean entirely new and pare style of architecture. Pure, be cause it conforms to all the essential Ideas of architecture new, because only modern reinforced concrete has made It possible" The structure takes advantage of the plasticity of rein forced' concrete, and the building which would be practically monolithic when finished, would have its external and internal forms identical to a degree new to architecture Its vaults would spring direct from the floor lerei and there would be no separat ing distinction between walls and roof. In fact, one might say that the build ing would be "all roof, and have no structural walls whatever." Archi tectural opinion may fail of unani mous approval yet it must be ad mitted that the plan, seems to adapt Itself logically to the medium In which It is to be worked out, which is an Important point in its favor.Ex change. FLY ENEMY OF GYPSY MOTH. A recent agricultural department bulletin states that a parasitic fly, Compsilura civcinnata, has been used with great success to destroy gypsy moth and brown-tail moth in New England. It will also aid in file control of other insect pests. A fe years ago the white-marked tus taock moth was a serious pest in New England, but has practically disap peared since Compsilura became es tablished. The cabbage worm, the celery worm and the fall webworm have all been reduced by the activi ties of the new parasite. PARACHUTES IN PARI3.

WTD3 WTI O MINOR FREE AND STILL SPELLBINDING Robert A. Minor, an American journalist and cartoonist and a "sensa tional spellbinder of the soap-box type," is a storm-center and has been for some time. He was arrested In April of 1919 in Paris by the French at the instigation of the British and taken to Ooblenz, where he was tried by the Americans on the charge that he had engaged in a campaign of prop aganda to weaken the military pow er of the allies. July 5 he was re leased from the military prison under circumstances which the war corre spondents endeavored vainly to ex plain. July 31 the senate' passed a reso lution calling upon the secretary of war for explanations. October 10 the senate passed another resolution to the same effect. Several senators freed their minds. Senator Poindex ter, comparing Minor to Trotzkl, said: "So It Is with Minor, who, by some authority evidently above General Pershing, was released from the custody of the courts-martial of the American expeditionary forces, set free. and allowed to return to America to continue his revolutionary activities here, with what consequences the future remains to tell." October 22 the secretary of war reported to the senate on the Minor case. In brief it amounted to two statements. One was that Minor was guilty as charged but that it couldn't be proved. The other was that after his discharge "important additional information" was obtained. Minor predicts in his public addresses that the Soviets in Russia, "the greatest ruling power in the world," will maintain a government after all the ruling governments of Europe are overthrown.
