(Chicago Tribune Foreign News Service Copyright, l'J'J2, by the Chicago Tribune.) PARIS, Oct. S. A near riot was caused today to hear Dr. Serge Voronoff give his report of his gland transplantation experiments which the congress of French sur geons refused to hear Thursday Hundreds of persons, almost half whom were young girls and women almost fought to enter the experi mental laboratory of the College of France, where the Russian savan had waiting some rejuvenated men. some rejuvenated rams, moving pic tures and a mass of fascinating de tail. One woman became so thrilled Dr. Voronoff's description of "virile impulses" that she lumped up and shouted, "When are you going to' do something like that for us women? "You ladies will never need any thing like that. It is only old men who need it," said Dr. Voronoft smilingly." . Girls Pet Monkeys His enthusiastic audie'nce not only heard a complete description of the transplanting, process, but actually was able to shake hands with re--juvenated patriarchs and fondle the chimpanzees. Many girls picked up the great 'simpering monkeys and patted them.

The pictures showed old men before the operation, during the operation and afterward. They showed monkeys chained in a cor ner while a clinic cut open 'their glands and sewed them into -men. and everything. For the first few minutes the audience was hushed, and then it began to applaud and stamp its feet The most important event of the day, the exhibition of the rejuve nated patient, Arthur Evelyn Liar det of London, could not have been more dramatically arranged. Rejuvenated Man Appears. Dr. Voronoff had spoken one hour, tracing the history of his experi ments, describing their significance and results, and then the lights were turned off and the movie pro jector began turning. Step by step the film showed the process of transplantation before, during and after. At first it showed transplan tations in. rams and then men. The lights suddenly were switched on and Dr. Voronoff stepped to the front. He beckoned smilingly to a man in the front of the audience, who came forward. It was Mr. Liardet, the most rejuvenated man in the world today, Dr. Voronoff de clared. The lights were flashed off again and the film showed Mr. Liardet boxing, climbing mountains, riding horseback, golfing, rowing and, finally, jumping up steps four steps at a time, liKe a monkey. Women Hush Doctor. Mr. Liardet again became the chief interest to the spectators to ward the close of the meeting, most of the women and girls crowding around him and inquiring of him i , v -L II II " ": ' ' -r i J I'-.

Enforce ment of the prohibition amendment on sea as well as on land was hailed last night by individual and or ganized foes of the Volstead act as a measure which would speed the legalized return of beer and light wines. ' The Association Against the Pro hibition Amendment issued from its J national headquarters a statement giving its emphatic approval to Attorney-General II ships, whether foreign -or domestic, should be bone dry.' It then proceeded to "go the opportunity, and intend to do their atUTjiey-general one better.' best, to register in President Hani- i pointing out that the third plank ing's own state a verdict of disap- jn the associations platform held proval of his administration.

They would prefer not to have a complete majority of the lower house and thus be held re sponsible by the public for the spec tacle of two years of bedevilling deadlock between a republican president and a democratic house. Observation on the ground and later developments mayjmodify the above estimate of the probable re publican strength in the next house, but that is the way it looks from Washington a month and a day be fore the election. Dry Majority Seems Safe. Neither can it be said that-there is great doubt about the outcome of the other big contest of the year, he f iglvt between the "wets" and "ctrys" -which Is almost as much to the front as the contest between the republicans and democrats. The "dry" majority in the present con gress is overwhelming. Based on knowledge of the number of sitting representatives in congress who term in the senate, it will be real ized instantly that he will be a very probable democratic candidate for the presidency in 1924. In Indiana the senatorship fight Involves the re-entry into public af fairs of ex-Senator Albert J.

Reed Fighting Desperately. In Missouri SenaTor James A. Reed is plunging, fighting, scratch ing, and biting in the second and final installment of his attempt at politically rehabilitating the role of a democrat who opposes his oVn party and advocates isolation as the foreign policy of the United States. In Minnesota a woman, for the first time in history, has the nomi nation of one of the great parties for United States senator. North Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa and Nebraska form the storm center of that political territory, where the issue of radical versus conservative overlaps the issue of republican versus democrat and where the radi cal sentiment grows visibly from day to day. Aside from the importance of these specific contests, it will be in teresting to find what is the state of feeling of the country about Harding on the second anniversary of his emergence upon the country as an elected president, about the tariff, about prohibition, and about the gradual but clearly developing return of our foreign relations as a national issue. th law of the land, they should be obeyed," the statement continued.

S. The Union Oil company tanker Lyman Stewart was reported by marine surveyors to b pounding open her seams tonight on the rocks south of Point Lobes on the San Francisco ocean shore line after having col lided with the freighter Walter A. Luckenbach in a dense fog that swirled in through the Golden Gate yesterday afternoon. A fleet of tugs and the salvage steamer Homer tried all day to nose the big vessel out into the fairway off the jagged, rocks, but she only settled deeper. . Early in the day it was announced that her No. 1 and No. 2 holds and her engine room had been flooded and that the pounding seas were pulling and hauling her over the rocks in such a fashion that her whole bottom was in danger of eventually being torn away. The Stewart is lying broadside to a surf that continuously rolls high -and in addition is in the path of currents that race between the Seal rocks, a few hundred yards away, and the shore cliffs. Position Is Sorveyed. Government marine inspectors surveyed the vessel's position today and expressed the opinion that there was little hope for her. Her oil cargo of 65,000 barrets, valued at $150,000, was jettisoned immediately after the collision to keep her from sinking before she could be beached. On account of the surf and the heavy groundswells, the crew had difficulty in landing. The Luckenbach bow was twisted and many of her plates- sprung, but she made her berth, and was not taking any considerable amount of water today. She will be surveyed tcday. Throughout the day crowds run ning into many thousands sought every vantage point above Point Loband around the nearby Cliff House, to watch the giant combers grind the Stewart against the rocks. The sorely distressed vessel repre sented the second great marine dis aster in the known history of the treacherous south channel of the Golden Gate, the first being the sinking of the Pacific Mail liner Rio de Janeiro on Washington's birth- ay, 1901, at almost the identical spot where the Stewart and the Luckenbach smashed together. No Trace of Rio Found. More than 150 lives and more than $1,000,000 in treasure were lost when the Rio went down. No trace of her was ever found. Like the disaster yesterday, the sinking of the Rio was due to a dense fog, the liner striking a sub merged rock a short distance off shore while she was trying to feel her way into the bay to her berth. The possibility of salvaging any of the Stewart's machinery and other portions of her power plant was minimized greatly today by the flooding of the engine room. Ac cording to the marine exchange of the chamber of commerce, which is receiving regular reports of her po sition, she is being nosed further down on the rocks. In the collision the Luckenbach ripped a hole ap proximately seven feet wide in the tanker's storehold. just aft of the forepeak. The oil was turned into the sea when the Stewart began to sink by the head. The fog was so df-nse that tugs summoned by the Stewart's wireless had considerable difficulty in finding her. The Stewart 1 was built in San Francisco in 1914, and was of 5919 gross tons. She is & steel screw, three-masted vessel.

"Gump-for-Congress Club'-to Be Factor in St. Helens Vote for City Officers. ST. HELENS, 0, Oct. 8. (Spe cial.) With election less than a montti distant, the political situa tion in Columbia county is becom ing .more interesting. There seems little doubt of the county giving Olcott a substantial majority over Pierce. Republicans are sure of this and several of the leading democrats admit it. The county is normally a three-to-one republican county, and the injection .of re ligious or school matters will not change the political situation, it is thought. In county matters there is likely to be a close fight for the office of commissioner. J. N. Miller of Clats kanie is the republican candidate, and is opposed by William Pringie, democrat, of the Nehalem valley. RHidnts of that section, irre spective of party, feel that the Ne halem should be represented on the county board, and will give pringie a larga vote. For representative, Sherman M. Miles, democrat, and present repre sentative, is opposed by A. E. Veatch of Rainier, who won the republican nomination. On account of Mr. Miles' record in the last legislature and his popularity throughout the coun ty, it is likely that party lines will will be closely observed In the con test, which promises to be a close one also. In city affairs It Is likely the nominees for councilman who re ceived complimentary votes at the primary election and were declared regularly nominated will be opposed by several members of the present council, who will run on the "(Jump" ticket, the "Gump-f or-Congress" club having been formed here with a membership which will number several hundred before election day.

Skulls of Revolutionary Heroes Thought to Have Been Hauled to Scow by Italians. New York. Sept. 19. Two motor truck loads of human bones, the re-' mains of several hundred of New York's early settlers, some of them possiblv minute men heroes of the American Revolution and American soldiers of the War of 1812. were in gloriously and unceremoniously dumped into the ocean today from a city rubbish scow. Workmen employed by a construc tion company excavating a cellar, dug up the ancient church yard. Old brownstone tombstones with names and dates, the latest of which was 1820, were unearthed In one corner of the plot, when a brick vault was. broken open, the excavators d iscovered the human skulls and other bones. It was evi dent that there had been reinter ment from, the original burial, pos sibly some 60 years ago, when a public school was erected on th spot. The foreman of the construction job called up police headquarters and asked what to do with the human remains. "Oh, throw 'em down on the dump," he was instructed, he said. So a gang of Italian workmen with shovels loaded the bones of many of Manhattan's, pioneer citi . zens nonchalantly into two big motor trucks and the driver dumped them on a scow in the river. From records it was found that the old graveyard was undoubtedly connected with two prominent Man hattan churches of the early 19th century. .

After you have read it, do not say that such a shocking thing ( ' could never happen in Portland because it can. J Less than 50 years ago Portland's two principal fr cemeteries were at Tenth and Washington and f First and Ankeny. Everyone then thought that ' c the dead were safe from desecration. But today ,," within the limits of a single lifetime large buildings cover the burial grounds, and the bodies have been scattered. , Every large city has the same story to tell. It is one of abandonment of cemeteries, with such shocking results as the accompanying news item tells of. And so long as human beings remain blind to the fact that earth burial is unclean and WRONG in PRINCIPLE just so Ion will news papers carry reports of brutal and unfeeling tratment of the remains of heroes. Once the cemetery was a necessity. Today it is only a sorry makeshift; a relic of a barbarous past. Nor can all the ceremonies and flowers in the world hide from REASONING people the FACT that it is UNCLEAN, and is a method that does no honor to the living nor shows true rever ence and respect for the dead. There are many reasons why THINKING people are turning from earth burial to choose for their sleeping, ones either of the two incomparably better ways Vault Entombment or Cremation. And not the lerfst of these reasons is "PEACE OF MIND" in the knowledge that your loved ones are truly in repose safe against desecration, secure against vandals and tenderly guarded from the hands of uncaring strangers whose attitude is so clearly shown in the brutal remark, quoted in The Oregonian's news report: "Throw 'em on the dump."
