Sir Edward, iii a speech, declared that the time had come for the loyalists of Ulster to translate their words into action. He said something must be done to compel the British government to make up its mind. Ulster, he concluded, was anxious for peace, but was not going to accept peace with surrender.

A guard of honor composed of 4uo armed volunteers and 50 armed motorcycle dispatch riders, escorted the leaders to the residence of Captain James Craig, the military leader, where they will remain for a week. The intentions of the provisional government have not been disclosed, but one object of the meeting is the arrangement of an impressive celebration of the lath of July, or “Orangeman’s Day," in order to show the government and the people of Great Britain that nothing but the absolute exclusion of Ulster from the operations of the Irish home rule bill will satisfy us." Major General Sir Cecil MacReady, in command of the military in the Belfast district, has been in conference with Premier Asquith regarding the situation and the police have been instructed to act with great care so as to give no excuse for an outbreak.

ST. PAUL, .July 10.—The present school system was vigorously attacked today and the inefficiency of the average school teacher was denounced by J. H. Francis, superintendent of schools of Los Angeles, at the National Education association convention. characterized as soul Francis wreckers “certain powerful interests that are blocking all forms of education progress.” “Our public schools are namby pamhy places to which we go because it is the custom, and some of us become good citizens In spite of them. The purpose of education is to make us scholarly enough so we may separate ourselves from the common herd," Francis said. The hall rang with applause when Francis shouted, "God bless the girl who refuses to study algebra, a Study that has caused many girls to lose their souls. Give them courses in costume designing instead of mathematics.” “The schools are all wrong, because we give credit to the captain's things and not to the stokers,” declared Francis. “When the teaching force is allowed to make its own judgments and to stand on these judgments, we have different boys and girls.” He added that nine-tenths of our immorality was caused by damage done boys and girls by teachers. “Teachers who train the child to believe that he cannot be respectable unless he is a professional man, are a menace to society.” “Every child has a right to freedom in the pursuit of his normal development, free from mental, religious, political or financial exploitation on the part of those stronger than himself,” Mr. Francis continued. “Quiet opposition of powerful or-' ganizations toward any change lead-

Editor and Aviator Are Arrested For Disclosing Military Secrets


Charles K. Field, Robert Fowler, Ray A. Dhem and Riley A. Scott Accused by Government Officials


By the Associated Press.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 10. Charles K. Field, editor of the Sunset Magazine, former president of the Bohemian club; Robert Fowler, the aviator; Ray A. Duhem, a photographer; and Riley A. Scott, a writer, against whom warrants had been issued charging the disclosing of military secrets, were arrested today and taken before United States Commissioner Francis Krull. They were released on their own recognizance. The charges were based on published photographs of the Panama canal fortifications.

At a special session of the federal grand jury tomorrow the government will present its evidence against Field and the other defendants and ask for indictments.

In April the Sunset published an article entitled "Can the Panama Canal be Destroyed From the Air?" reproductions of photographs taken from an aeroplane and showing some of the fortifications of the canal zone and of the San Francisco Presidio accompanied the text. As soon as a copy of the number was called to the attention of the war department, it requested Preston to investigate.

The penalty is ten years' imprisonment and $10,000 fine for such disclosure if made abroad and one year and $1,000 fine if made in the United States.

The editorial comment of the magazine on one of the photographs against which the war department particularly complained was as follows:

"This is one of the most significant photographs ever published in this country. Below the aeroplane from which the picture was taken, lie the Nace Islands, in the Bay of Panama, on which the United States government is now mounting batteries of the heaviest artillery in the world to protect the Pacific approach to the Panama canal.

"On the island, almost directly under the aeroplane can be seen the emplacement for the most powerful weapon ever constructed, the first 16-inch disappearing gun, which has an effective range of about 12 miles.

"Here is the significance of the photograph: The aeroplane might have come in time of war from a battleship out of range of the big gun, flying at a safe height, and carrying 500 pounds of high explosive instead of a camera. Would not the big gun be helpless against such a foe?"

Mr. Field's defense today was that the photographs showed no actual fortifications, nor artillery but only the emplacement for a gun and the preliminary work for a fort. To this Mr. Preston replied:

"I think the case has merit. It has always been an army regulation with the force of law forbidding the taking of photographs or view's of the permanent works of defense, whether in course of construction or completed.

"By the act of March 3, 1911, congress strengthened the regulation so that it is now a violation of a plain statute for any civilian to take or publish photographs of any fortifications, whether complete or in process of construction.

"The war department regards the enforcement of this law as absolutely essential and my instructions are emphatic in this case.”


Mr. Warburg has finally decided that he will not appear personally before the banking committees to be t ross examined, and the president is backing him in that stand. The nomination of Thos. D. Jones which tne banking committee has voted to report adversely, is In a lows; different position.
