Franco-Britis~ Peace Plan
Stirs Up a Big Row
p REMIER LAVAL of France and
Slr Samuel Hoare, British foreign
secretary, seem to have made an aw-
ful mess of things with their plan to
end the Italo-Ethiopi-
an war. AS was ex-
plained last week, they
proposed that Italy
should be rewarded for
ceasing its invasion ot
Ethiopia by receiving
about two-thirds of
that hapless country,
in return for whtcl~
Emperor Halle Se-
lassie was to be grant-
ed a seaport. As the
Eduard callousness o f t h I s
Herriot plan dawned on the
world, angry protests were heard ev-
erywhere. The English people were
IDo aroused that Prime Minister Bald-
:win's government was threatened.
Still worse was the plight of Lavars
ministry, for E~uard Herriot, leader
of the powerful Radical Socialists, at-
tacked the premter's policy as inimical
to tile League of N~ions. His party,
~Ierriot declared, favors settlement of
the war by conciliation, but only on
the following conditions: First, it must
be freely accepted by both parties, and
second, the method of conciliation
must be compatible with the covenant
of the league and the principles of
collective security and must be ac-
ceptable to the league.
Placed before the league council, the
peace plan was assailed by represent-
olives of the smaller European nations
which fear they, too, might be similarly
sacrificed in the future; and Mexico
arid other Latin American nations also
signified that they disapproved it.
Halle Selassie strategically demanded
that the league assembly pass upon the
proposals. Mussolini took them under
consideration, asking that they be
Sclarified"; but tile inspired Italian
press said the plan would give Italy
less than her armies have conquered
in the Tigre, "only sand" in the East
and South and a zone of influence
where hostile Emperor Halle Selassie
would reign,
Throughout the whole matter ran
the mysterious threads of secret Eu-
ropean diplomacy and one could only
guess at the real motives of those
concerned. It was supposed Baldwin
and his British cabinet were weaken-
ing in the matter of sanctions against
Italy because they feared Mussolini
would resist by force of arms and
would do tremendous damage to the
British fleet in the Mediterranean with
his powerful air force. Laval, of
course, was still trying to preserve
both his political position and the new
France-Italian friendship. Mussolini
seemed satisfied for the present to
keep everyone else terribly worried.
A dispatch from the Italian front re-
Teals the interesting fact that Henry
Ford canceled the contract for 800 cars
for the Italian army and thereby, ac-
~eording to Gem Rudolfo Graziani,
greatly slowed up the invaders on
their march toward Addis Ababa•
Republican Convention .
Awarded to Cleveland
CLEVELAND Is the place and 3une
9 the date selected for the Repub-
lican national convention of 1936. The
matlonal committee heard arguments
on behalf of Chicago, Kansas City and
Cleveland, and then decided on the
Ohlo city, largely for political reasons.
Crov• All Landon of Kansas and Col.
Frank Knox of Chicago both being po-
tential candidates for the nomination,
it was thought wise to h'bld the con-
qention tn neutral territory. Ralph E.
~llllams of Oregon, vice chairman of
the committee, was made chairman of
the committee on arrangements. Dele-
gates to the convention will number
997, or 157 fewer than In 1932.
The national committee concluded its
session with an invitation to conserva-
tive Democrats to Join with the Repub-
licaus in the effort to oust the R0ose-
•elt administration.
Gov. Talmadge Announces
His Candidacy
UNLESS Eugene Talmadge, the fiery
governor of Georgia, changes his
mind, the Democratic national conven-
tion isn't going to be the mere Roose-
velt renomination love feast that ad-
Imlnistratlon supporters, had intend-
ed it should be. Talmadge went to
Washington and there boldly an-
mounced that he would be a candidate
for the Presidential nomination. He
declared the Democrats would lose the
election if they put Roosevelt at the
bead of their ticket again, and de-
nounced the President as an "usurper"
In the party.
The governor also announced that
I convention of the "southern Jeffer-
l~onlan Democracy" would be held in
Atlanta the last week in January for
the purpose of formulating a program
¢o battle the New Deal and President
Roosevelt.
He added: "The southern and bor-
der states have 360 votes lu the Dem-
ocratic national convention. It takes
but 3¢,7 votes to block the nomination
of a President. We are gbing to bring
a let of delegates to that convention,"

of $200 monthly to all persons more
than sixty years old, the governor said
he was opposed to any pension plan
except one for incapacitated veterans
of the World war. He favors pay-
ments of the soldiers' bonus out of the
$4,800,000,000 works relief approprl~
lion, he added.
James A. Reed Bolts the
Roosevelt Camp
JAMES A. REED, former senator
from Missouri and long one of the
more prominent Democrats, Is an-
other who will not support Franklin
D. Roosevelt for re-election. He said
in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, that If the
President were renominated he was
prepared to vote for the Republican
nominee provided the latter is pledged
to stand by the Constitution and Amer-
ican fundamentals.
"In so acting and voting," said Mr.
Reed, "I shall continue to be a real
Democrat. My democracy shall not be
taken away by any one man or group
of men who have attained office by
posing as Democrats and who have
turned out to be enemies of all the
Democratic party has advocated in the
past and which the real Democrats of
the United States still cherish."
Senator Lewis Is Willing
to Be Re-Elected
SENATOR JAME~ HAMIT~TON
LEWIS, returned to his Chicago
home from a trip to Russia, during
which he was critically ill in Mo.~cow,
appeared to be entirely recovered, and
declared he was willing to serve an-
other term as senator from Illinois if
hts party wished it. He was emphatic
in classifying himself as "an Independ-
ent Democrat," who had, on occasions,
opposed the will of the President and
some of the administration's plans.
Senator Lewis disclosed his ~)lans
for a personal campaign for reduction
of federal expenses by drastic consoli-
dation of governmental agencies. The
$30,000,000,000 federal debt Is a mat-
ter of deep concern to him, he asserted

Calles Returns to Mexico
and Trouble Results
pLUTARCO ELIAS CALLES, one-
time "iron man" of Me~Ico, has re-
turned there from his exile in Califor-
nia with the apparent Intention of dis-
puting the rule of the country with
President Lazaro Cardenas. In order
to prevent a military coup against the
government, Cardenas dismlssed Gem
Medina Veytta as chief of the mili-
tary zone of the Valley of Mexico and
Gen. 3"oaquln Amaro as director of the
national military school Both were
among the supporters of CalIes. as
were five senators who were previous-
ly expelled on charges of rebellious
and seditious activities.
The administration's next move was
to oust four state governors.
Most leftist labor organizations lined
up with the president, more than two
score of them petitioning the gov-
ernment to expel Calles as a "Facial
threat."
Japanese Troops Seize
Another Chinese City
STILL further tightening their grip
on North China, e Japanese sent a
blg detachment of troops with machine
guns to Kalgen, Chahar province, the
interior gateway on the great wall. The
soldiers seized the vital railway yards
and closed all city gates. About the
same time armed forces of the east
Hopei autonomous state which 3apart
supports took possession of Tanhku. the
strateg:.c seaport of Tientsin. These
two movements gave Japanese and
.Tapanese-sponsored forces control of
both ends of a 200-mile line extending
through Chahar and Hopei provinces,
from Kalgan down through Peiping,
ancient capital of China, and Tientsin,
important commercial city, to Tangk~

Carlos Mendieta Resigns
Presidency of Cuba
CARLOS MENDIETA reslgne•d as
president of Cuba because of a
fierce quarrel in the government over
procedure for the election of a con-
stitutional president. Mendleta had
held the office for two years. Secre-
tary of State Barrier took over the
office and reappointed all members of
the cabinet, and preparations for the
election went ahead.
Agreement Reached for Air
Route Across Atlantic
THE United States and Great Brit-
ain, In the conference at Washing-
ton, agreed upon a plan that Is ex-
pected to result in regular atr mail and
passenger transportation across the
Atlantic by the summer of 1937. Ne-
gotiations were under way for the
northern route by way of Canada, New-
foundland, and Irish Free State to
England, and the southern route from
Porto Rico and American ports to
England.
The northern route is more practica-
ble than the southern route because of
the shorter ~istance, but is less prac-
ticable in winter because flights would
be undertaken under less favorable
conditions.
Under the agreement experimental
flights will begin next summer. W~en
regular service Is inaugurated, accord-
ing to the agreement, four round trips
will be made each week.
Constitutional Rule in
Egypt Is Restored
CONTINUOUS rioting In Cairo, di-
rected against British control of
Egypt, attacks on English soldiers and
smashing of street cars and shop win-
dows, forced Premier
Nessim Pasha and his
cabinet to decide to
resign. The rioters de-
manded the restora-
tion of the constitu-
tion of 1923 and the
ministers pleaded with
Sir Miles Lampson,
British high commis-
sioner, to give his con-
sent. He was obdurate
in his refusal until
King Fuad Nessim Pasha an-
nounced that he would quit, but yield-
ed then to avoid disorders similar to
those of 1919.
Therefore, with the consent of Great
Britain, King Fund signed a royal de-
cree restoring constitutional govern-
ment, and the cabinet members with.
drew thglr resignations. The• coasts
tution thus restored provides for a
senate and chamber of deputies and
takes control of Egypt's internal affairs
completely out of British hands. It
does not, however, affect Britain's con-
trol of Egyptian foreign affairs~ nor
the British military protectorate.
Farm Bureaus Uneasy About
Federal Fiscal Policies
BEFORE the American Farm Bureau
federation closed its convention in
Chicago, it adopted a resolution en-
dorsing reciprocal trade treaties• To
avoid dlgsension, the resolution did not
mention specifically tbe recent trade
agreement between Canada and the
United States, which lowered the duty
on many farm products coming in over
the northern border.
Another of the 17 resolutions adopt-
ed at the meeting concerned "federal
fiscal policies•" Indicating their un-
easiness over the mounting federal
deficit, the farmers recommended that
the fiscal policies of the government
be modified, and that "its revenues
shall be increased, and that its expen-
ditures shall be decreased, to the end
that within the next few years a bal-
ance shall be attained."
The federation also approved a res-
olution pledging Itself to defend the
Agricultural Adjustment administra-
tion act. The meeting offere~l no seri-
ous criticism of the act, but asked
that its administration be simplified.
The delegates, representing a paid
up membership of 300,000 farmers ia
37 states, re-elected Edward A, O'Neal
of Alabama as president of the federa-
tion for a term of two years. Charles
E. Hearst was re-elected vice presi-
dent and all 15 members of the board
of directors were reappolntetL

Industrial Council Is
Hard to Organize
GEORGE L. BERRY, industrial co-
ordinator, found great difficulty in
mustering his proposed industrial coun-
cil, in which many great industrial
groups had refused to participate. The
initial session of his conference broke
up in ~lisorder amid shouts of "liar"
and threatened fist fights. Further do-
ings were postponed for a week or more
and most of the delegates went home,
declaring they wanted nothing to do
with a permanent council which might
lead to further government interfer-
ence with private business. The ~abor
unions stood by Berry, hoping his pro-
gram would aid their plans for a 30.

"And one minute," replied Bruce,
"it's this year--and the next It's to-

She smiled at him, a little dark thing
In filmy clouds of white. They circled
the ballroom once more.
"And one minute," said Bruce with
a deep rumble he tried to keep from
soundlng tender, lest someone overhear,
"you're Miss Corinne Mumford, and the
next," he whirled her off into a quieter
corner, "you're Mrs. Bruce MacQueen ["
"Indeed... as quickly as that?" She
smiled again but her cool voice trem-
bled.
"Do I gather," her lashes fell on her
cheeks, "that this Is In the way of a
)roposal of marriage?"
"Bright girl! On New Year's eve I
demand a new wife.., a new life., o
and happiness ever afterward."

"How modest," she murmured, "you

"Speak .. ! promise me before the

Promise me!" Now he held her closer,
his breath fanned her hair. "They pile
up and pile up . . . and then life goes
on . . . and we're old. Minute after

The violins seemed to beseech her;
they cried out at her in lovely golden
voices. One minute Is today . . . the
next Is tomorrow! They danced and
danced. One minute Miss Corinne Mum-

Queen.
In ber clouds of filmy white, whirling
and whirling in her partner's arms, she

glitter and life and beauty of a blg
party? The Joy of dancing as if her
feet were shod with wings? The de.
light of hearing Bruce's voice begging

more and more closely in his strong,

"I only heard today."
He was going away.., when today
was tomorrow, he would be gone. A
little pain climbed from her heart to
her throat. She lifted her chin and
looked up.
His glance, sober and dark and shin-
ins, plunged Into her eyes. She quiv-
ered.
He began to sing with the music, but
words of his own. "The boat sails on
•.. and the wind blows south ,.. I'll
never come home again."
The music stopped. A hush fell on
the huge ball room. The first slow peal
of a bell sounded high In the air.

She turned her face away. She knew.
So, ~olning her small human voice

LOOSE THAT ART
IMPULSE TO CALM
UPHEAVED EMOTION
Should you have a lurking sus-
:)Icion that part of your child's life
is dormant or incomplete, you can
find out by encouraging his ~rtlstlc
efforts. This opinion Florence Cane
expresses tn an article in the Par-
ents' Magazine. Her belief is based
on the theory that art functions In
the life of the clflld in three ways,
lhrough his physical, his mental and
emotional life.
"If art were undertaken with as
firm a realization of Its importance
re children as writing, spelling,
geography and language, I believe
we should soon see a different
world," optimistically declares this
lecturer on creative expression In
New York University's School of Ed-
ucation. "People would be lifted
above continuous commercialism,
above the vibration of guns, above
boredom or despair to a world of
color, light and life."
tIowever, if we are to rise above
conditions that disturb or displease
us, we must become as little children
and s.~tisfy our art impulse; must
banish the thought that art is some.
thing to while away the hour, some~
thing to be smiled at. We will b~gin
to take art reverently as a great
reality, a necessity in man's soul by
which he takes the constructive road
rather than the destructive. The art
impulse, whatever form it may take,
very definitely is the god-given de-
sire to create. And, in manner of
speaking, In creating we pour oil
upon our upheaved emotions.

The wife of an African planter

"While in East Africa a few

four native "boys.' I missed several
small Items--tea, sugar, etc.~and
when a pound note disappeared trom
my handbag I decided it was time to
do something. All four boys stead-
fastly declared they had never stol-
en a thing in their lives. I told the
'boys' that I was going to call upon
the White man's God to find the thief.
I gave each 'boy' a piece of bamboo
cane six inches in length, telling
them they were to take it to bed
wlth them, and that the white man's
God would make the thief's cane
grow one Inch longer during the
night.
"The following morning the four
'boys' smilingly brought their pieces
of cane for my Inspection. The first
two pieces were of the correct
length, but the third 'boy's' cane was.
