V Echoes of the Hoover-Laval Conference?Tremendous yictory of British Conservatives?Japan Doesn't Weaken in Manchurian Affair. ?' S 1 By EDWARD W. PICKARD Puimhikii lavai. has sailed hark home happf' In the belief that his conversations with President Hoover accomplished a great deal toward OAttllrtr. mA-M ? W Willi I'l Wll- ; lems. And Mr. Hoover and his aids presum ably are equally sat isfied. Others, In America and Europe, are doubtful. How ever, deductions from the rather vague statement issued by the President and the premier are that the real achievements of the conference are these: Co-operation between the United States and France on the economic and financial remedies necessary to end worldwide depression; recognition of the fact that Germany may find It necessary to call for re-examination of Its capacity to pay reparations, as provided by the Young plan. In lieu of extension of the Hoover moratori um; maintenance of the gold stand ard and a stabilization of exchange rates through the medium of Interna tional monetary conferences. If neces sary; an end of the drive on the dol lar, so far as French holders thereof are concerned, and an excellent un derstanding of the political problems which underlie such questions as dis armament. Senator Borah's projection of him self and bis opinions Into tlte discus sions will be a subject of excited apeculation for some time to come. Whether or not he tried to steal, the spotlight, he almost succeeded In do ing just that when he bluntly told the French correspondents that the Ver sailles peace treaty would have to be revised, especially In regard to the Polish corridor and the division of Hungary, and that the United States would not enter Into any security pact. In later conversations with M. Laval and with Tytus Fillpowlcz, the minister from Poland, Mr. Borah stuck to his pronouncements though he ad mitted considerable ignorance of con ditions in central Europe. M. Laval treated the chairman of the senate committee on foreign relations with politeness, but the French newspapers dismissed his suggestions as childish. ? ?? MANY of the Berlin papers called the parley In Washington a fail ure, but German statesmen unofllclal ly expressed'their satisfaction because DwAalitnn* *? A m. i loiucui au* vised Europe It must get together and ar rive at a definite agreement, not only on reparations, but on war debts also. He did not, It was re marked. address him self to France and Germany alone. It was said that Germany fears that the coun try might be placed at the mercy of r ranee If the Washington parleys failed to accomplish a Joint solution had proved unwarranted, and that the problems are now before Europe as a whole. Berlin feela that an Interna tional conference on war debts and separations must be called quickly. Germany derived further satisfac tion from the visit to Berlin of Dlno Grand!, foreign minister of Italy. The Italian pledged his country 'to help Germany In the task of overcoming Its present great difficulties, and the Berlin officials also believe that the forthcoming trip of Slgnor Grand! to Washington will further clarify the situation and redouud to the benefit of Germany. Great Britain went to the polls and gave the Nationalist govern , ment of Ramsay UacDonald a most astonishing victory. The Labor party was almost wiped out so far as parli amentary membership goes, and the Conservatives are In fall control. Though at this writing the returns are not quite complete. It Is known that every member of the cabinet Is re-elected except Sir Willlsm Jowett, attorney general, who lost to another Conservative candidate, and Chancel lor of the Exchequer I'hlllp Snowden, who was not a candidate. The suc cess of Prime Minister MscDooald himself at Seaham Harbor was In doubt for a time, but be won by a good majority. Among the victors were Lady Nancy A at or and Viscount Bocodala. son of Earl Beatty. Labor party leaders who want down In defeat Included Arfhttlr Henderson.. Ben Tlllett, Ben Turner, jidiTivClync$ anil Margaret Bundfleld. Tiify other prominent Ijihorltes wfjpfce pro vlded with scata later thnyjfch the resignation of memhera repMfecmlhg sure constituencies. Sir Oswald Mns ley. wealth; lender of the n?i* party, was a poor third In his dlstrit. -|i The triumph of the Cunse vntlves Is so tremendous that It m* -prov^ emharrnssing and result In ts t dntyiv fall of ITIme Minister Mnpliniiald. The Tories have such a hum major ity .that they probably will ftike over the control of the governinpit. ' In thnt case It Is expected fljey Ski 11 undertake to pass protective tariff legislation, though Stanley Bnldwln and other Conservative lenders have been rather noncommittal on that sub ject. RADICAL Republican congressmen, eight In number, have served no tice on the regular Republicans thai they will not co-operale wfth the IijL,: ter In the organisation Of the new house unless their demands (fir agri cultural and unemployment relief are given consideration. These La Fol letle followers, accordlog To their1 newspaper In Madison, are to hold1 a meeting within a few weeks and. have Invited the attendance of radical rep resentatives from other states, name ly : Philip D. Swing, California; E. H. Campbell. Iowa; Florello La Guardla, New York; James H. Sinclair, North Dakota; O. B. Lovette, Tennessee, and Paul J. Kvale, Minnesota. Democratic financial experts in the senate are proposing' the creation of a $2,000,000,000 pool by . the government fbr Immediate redls * counting of frozen BIHHK; real estate securltle*. and other slow paper. In the hands of banks.. The plan yvas'put for-*' ward by Senator ISulkley of Ohio. who. called It a corollary of the Hoover emer- ? gency economic pro gram. He urged thai It should be carried out through an estn6-' Ilshed g o v e r n m fix agency rather-''than a new one, ana suggestea rne reaerni land banks. His Idea Is that t(ie gov ernment should float bonds to raise the hnge sum, believing that such an Issue would do a lot In drawing,cur rency out of hoarding. ' ' ; Senator Glass of Virginia, , who Is spokesman for the Democrats on hanking matters, gave the' Ilulkley plan his approval. Both these sen ators are on the banking subcomralt tee now engaged In drafting new leg islation. They have declared their opposition to any tampering with the. federal reserve system In the effort to get that organization to rediscount . new paper to meet the emergency. CONTROVERSY over the admlnle tratlon's naval economy program reached the .acrimonious stage. Wil liam Howard Gardiner, president of the Navy league, a civilian organiza tion, gave out a statement attacking the President's navy construction pok idea and accusing Ur. Hoover of "abysmal Ignorance"' of the reasons why navies are maintained. The Pres ident retorted with the announcement that he would appoint a committee to Investigate the charges ma^e by Gar diner, declaring they were'full of up truths and misstatements and that at the conclusion of the Inquiry lib Would expect a public apology from Gardlder.

BURGESS BOWSER WONDERS WHAT AILS PETER Bow wow, wowt Here Is where I vet you! Thump, thump, thump] 1 will never let you! II? UNCT BILLY I'OSSU&l thought Peter Rabbit crazy when he ran out from the safety of the bramble tangle In the Green Forest rlgtt under the very nose of Bowser the Hotind, Siipmy Jay and Blacky the Crow Mus rled Over to Watch the CHaee. yoc may be sure that Bowser lUioughit the- same thing. -He had tried hie very beat to frighten I'eter, and Peter had merely sat there and. laughed at, him. Then Peter suddenly hopped out right In front of htm and Bowser vras so surprised that for n minute he quite lost his voice nod simply stared Id the most stupid way. Peter bopped along a few steps and then thumped the ground, which was his way of saying "Catch me If you can!" "Of course I'll catch youl" roared Bowser. He didn't really believe he would, for he had chased I'eter often eDough to know that 1'efer was full of smart tricks, but he wanted to scare I'eter, and then perhaps he liked to boast a little, too. Pretty soon he began to think that he really might catch Peter this time. You see'usual ly Peter kept so far ahead of him that he only got n glimpse of him now and then and followed him by keeping his wonderful nose In Peter's tracks, but this time Peter kept only a little way ahead and In plain sight all thg time, so that Bowser could follow blm without depending on his nose, *t all Sometimes Pete would let him gel so close that It seemed as If he would surely eaten mm in tne nest jump, but somehon he never did. Bowser was puzzled. There wits no doubt about that; I'eter wasn't doing any of the things he usually did. He didn't run In a single circle. -He didn't once try to ml* his trail. Ite didn't take a single'long side Jump tp break his trail will make Bowser waste time Id htWIng to'f It. In fact lie didn't-tithy the game at nil the way he usually did. 4'oil see- Bowser had ; become so. uSed So hunting Peter and never catching liiin Uuit he had come to look al.lt as fl game,,and he knew that I'eter'looked at It the same way. Itlght down In his heart'Bowser didn't i warn 10 caicn i*eier ho mucn ns ne tried to make himself thin* he did. You see If he should catch Peter why that would put nn end to these games. But this time it began to look as if he really might catch him. Peter was running as if he were lame. ?'Some thing Is the matter with him," thought Bowser. "As sure as I can wag my tall something ails Peter Rabbit, lie Isn't running right. What under the sun made him cpme out of that bram ble-tangle when he knew that he was perfectly safe there? And why didnt he run into that hollow log we just passed? I couldn't have got him there and he knows it. lie must have lost bis senses. He must be crazy. Well. If he doesn't know enough to take care of himself it is no fault of mine. It Is every one for himself In the Green Forest and Peter can't exi>ect roe to let him go after the way he has teased me and fooled me and made fun of me In the past.** So Bowser ran harder than ever and the Green Forest rang s^jth his great voice, so that everybody within hearing knew tip* fbeye was an ex citipg gh^sp on. Sammy Jay and Blacky the Crow hurried over to watch it. and when they saw how clitse to Peter Bowser was. and that . Peter wasn't trying a single trick, bat seemed to be having the hardest work to keep oat of Bowser's rea -h. they, too. wer> sare that something was the matter with Peter. "He's trying to reach the Okl Brier Patch, and he'll never get there in the world" cried Sammy Jay. "He's all ? oat of breath now. and be hasn't reached the edge of the Green Forest yet. I never expected ta see the day when Bowser the Hound would catrh Peter Itabbit. bat he's going to do it this time or my name isn't Sammy Jay." (dby j a Lloyd.) ?
