The Italian cabinet, in which Mussolini holds eight port folios, announced In Rome that Italy would accept no compromise and would not retreat from the course it has laid out in East Africa; that Its mil Benito Museollni itary preparations were being intensi fied, and that its forces were adequate “to respond to any menace whatever.” Still more important, in the light of de velopments, was the cabinet’s an nouncement of strengthening its military forces in Libya, where Gen eral Balbo has been establishing a strong line of air depots. This col ony borders Egypt on the West, and there was Immediately a lot of speculation as to whether Mussolini planned to attack the British em pire In that region. Italian forces in Libya have received reinforce ments of 40,000 men with tanks and field artillery, and are much strong er than the British forces in Egypt If economic sanctions were imposed on Italy, Mussolini might well re ply by threatening Great Britain In that quarter, by Invasion and by arousing the native population to revolt Premier Laval's speech before the League of Nations" was exceeding ly clever but did not clear the situ ation sufficiently. While he gave assurance that France would abide by the league covenant and fulfill Its obligations, he hinted that his government would demand In re turn that Britain enter a definite engagement to carry out the pro gram agreed upon in London on February 3—an air Locarno with automatic enforcement and the con clusion of Danubian and Baltic se curity pacts. One after another the nations represented in the league announced their support of the British stand against Italy. If the British do not back down—and that seems unlike ly—and if Italy persists in Its ad venture, the league will be called on to apply article 18 of the cove nant This requires the submission of any dispute, likely to lead to a rupture, to the council which must then try to effect a settlement. The council also will adopt as its own the report of the committee of five, which has failed to find a solution acceptable to Italy. The parties to the dispute are obligated to keep the peace for three months in any event, which would prevent an Ital ian campaign before the rains set in again in Ethiopia. If In the next three months either side accepts the council's de cision, the other party is automat ically outlawed If it starts a war at any time in the future. In that case, the penalties against an ag gressor as provided in article 16 must take effect automatically, It is believed in Geneva that the penalty easiest to apply would be a general boycott of all trade with Italy. In that case the course, fol lowed by the United States would be all Important The European statesmen feel confident that they can count on President Roosevelt once a war breaks out, to Interpret cotton, wheat, and other raw ma teriais as war material and under the American neutrality legislation forbid direct shipment to Italy and Ethiopia. New German Laws Bear Down on the Jews SIX hundred members of the Ger man reichstag, all fervent Nazis, met in special session in Nurem berg and at the demand of Belchs fuehrer Hitler passed two laws bearing down hard on the Jews In the reich. Jhe first of these new statutes prescribes prison sentences as pen al 11 e s for mar rlages between Jews and cltlsens of German kindred Adolf Hitlor uioou, ana aeciares such marriages void If performed la a foreign country. Jfrtra-marltal relations between Jews and Aryans also are punish able by prison sentences. Jews are forbidden to employ women under forty-five years la their boose holds after January 1, on penalty of Imprisonment Jews are not al lowed to hoist the national flag, be ing limited to the Zionist blue and white emblem. The second law provides that only a person who “belongs to the pro tective association of the German empire and Is especially obligated to the relch” may be a cltlxen of Germany. This citizen mast be of German or kindred blood and show that he is willing to serve the Ger man people. Thus Jews and Ger mans of whom the Nazis disap prove may be excluded. Hitler also put through a third law establishing the Nazi Swastika as the national and trade flag of Germany. The war ministry was Instructed to adopt a war flag of black, white and red. In his address to the relchstag Hitler said that by the laws adopt ed he hoped to deliver a fatal blow to Communism and Jewry. He also discussed the Memel question and warned Lithuania that Justice must be done to Germans in Memel ‘‘before events take form that one day may be only regretted.” Mr. Davis Tells President of Conditions in Europe NORMAN H. DAVIS, American “ambassador at large,” called on President Roosevelt at Hyde Park and gave him a clear picture of the situation in Europe. After leaving the conference, Mr. Davis said to reporters that war In Eu rope Is extremely probable but he sees no reason why the United States should become involved. There had been hopes, Mr. Davis said, for a conference on naval dis armament this fall. But the Italo Ethlopian dispute has removed any such possibility. Smetona Says Lithuania Will Fight for Memel Chancellor hitler’s re marks about Memel aroused .President Antonas Smetona to put ting out the first interview he has granted in six years. In It he de clared that Lithu ania, relying to the utmost on the le gality and Justice of her stand In Me tnel affairs, la ready at any time to de fend her position before the perma nent court of Inter President Smetona oauouai justice. But should an ef fort be made to dis regard legality and justice In favor of force, Lithuania is prepared, stated President Smetona, to “de fend Memel with all the means at her command.” He regards as Lithuania's chief problem In Memel today the action of Germany in practically stop ping all imports from Lithuania with “resultant economic pressure” and what he terms the “relentless Influence of foreign propaganda.” Continuing, President Smetona said: “Memel Is to us an economic necessity, not a political Issue. We are too small a nation to engage In political bargaining, as we are too small a country to engage in con tra-propaganda. Our only point is the Memel, containing Lithuania's only seaport. Is an essential part of Lithuania. And the freedom and preservation of Lithuania Is to her people a precious thing.” Soft Coal Strike Averted for Another Week STRIKES that would have closed down a large part of the coun try’s soft coal industry were avert ed for a time at least by the vigor ous action of President Roosevelt and Assistant Secretary of Labor Edward F. McGrady, the Labor de partment’s best conciliator. The controversy between the miners and operators has been going on for eight months and many negotiations have been attempted. In a meeting with the President and McGrady at Hyde Park the United Mine Work ers agreed to permit existing wage pacts to continue in force seven more days, thus averting the walk out that would have started Sep tember 16. Nogotiatlons toward a new wage contract were then start ed, with- McGrady representing President Roosevelt. Secretary Hull’s Reply on Brodsky Protest OFFICIAL annoyance In Ger many over the remarks of Magistrate Brodsky of New York who called the Hitler regime “a throwback to babrbarism’’ probably was allayed by the note from Sec retary of 8tate Hull. This ex plained that the federal government had no control over the magis trate, bat Mr. Hall In It gave a. sound verbal spanking to Brodsky for “Indulging In expressions of fensive to another government with which we have official relations." Communists Art Barred by Commercial Telegraphers THE Commercial Telegraphers’ Union of North America, at its annual convention In Chicago, voted to bar .Communists from member ship. international President Frank & Powers of Chicago and Secre tary-Treasurer W. L. Allen of Win nipeg were re-elected. Kentucky Operators Fight Guffey Coal Act t Legal attack on the ' di£v soft coal act has been qpeiwd by 16 coal companies operating In Harlan county, Kentucky, in Feder al court at Louisville. They brought suit for injunction against Its en forcement, charging that It violates the federal Constitution in, these ways: ’ ' £ L It violates the fifth amend ment, which forbids taking proper ty without due process of law,.. ' 2. It violates the tenth amend ment, which reserves to the states, or to the people, all rights not granted the federal government or forbidden the states. 3. It attempts to delegate legisla tive power. 4. The section levying a 18 per cent tax on all coal production, with a 90 per cent refund to pro ducers submitted to the code pro vided by the act, is “an unconstitu tional attempt on the part of con gress, under the guise of taxation, to punish those producers of bitu minous coal who are unwilling to surrender their constitutional rights.” 5. Congress has no jurisdiction over and no power to legislate upon certain matters covered by the'act or the code. The companies declared they would refuse to submit to the act and the code it authorizes. Former Federal Judge Charles I. Dawson filed the action as counsel for the plaintiffs. Judge Dawson recently left the bench to re-enter private law practice after declaring unconstitutional the NBA, the slum clearance condemnation proceed ings, the taxes Imposed by the Kerr Smlth tobacco act, and other New Deal measures. Remnants of Grand Army Parade in Grand Rapids KtWB WENT to war on foot, VV and we’re Joining the pa rade the same way,” declared about 150 of the grizzled veterans who at tended the annual encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic In Grand Rapids, Mich. So these sturdy old men marched in the big parade, while the rest, numbering some 250, rode In automobiles. Here were all that remained of the hun dreds of thousands who answered the call to the colors In Civil war days, save for a few who were kept at home by extreme age and Illness. Some of the states had no repre sentatives in the line, but their dags were carried nevertheless. From other states there were but one or two. It was a pathetic but Inspir ing procession, watched by thou sands whose eyes were dimmed by tears and escorted by Sons of Vet erans, American Legionnaires and Veterans of the Spanish War. Oley Nelson, ninety-one, of Sla ter, Iowa, was elected com mander-ln-chlef, to succeed Albert E. Stacey of Elbrldge, N. Y. President Settles Warm Hopkins-Ickes Dispute PUBLIC WORKS ADMINISTRA TOR ICKBS and Work Progress Administrator Hopkins got Into such a quarrel over the spending of the *4,000,000, 000 fund that the President had to call them to Hyde Park, together with the third and neu tral member of the triumvirate— Frank G. Walker, the di rector of the na tional emergency council and admin Harry Hopkins “™0r 0f appllCa Others called to the Important works-relief parley included Dan iel Bell, director of the budget; Charles West, under-secretary of in terior; Corrlngton GUI, assistant of Hopkins; Fred Ironsides, admin istrative assistant of Walker; and Col. Horatio Hackett, chief of hous ing In the public works administra tion. ( Ur. Roosevelt was determined to have peace, and told those present that the prime necessity at this time Is to make jobs quickly, al ways keeping in mind the Idea of turning workers back to private In dustry as business warrants. This looked like a victory for Hopkins, who favors quick jobs, over Ickes, champion of permanent public works. The President has declared that he hopes 3.500,000 persons can be removed from the relief rolls and put to work,by the first of Novem ber. President Roosevelt’s Warm Tribute to Trees PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT mo tored up Into the heart of the Adlrondacbs to witness the dedica tion of the White F>ce mountain highway, an engineering feat start ed when he was governor of New York. He also attended a celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of conserva tion of forest lands in the state. To a crowd of about 1,000 persons the President said; "I hope that the next session of congress will pass legislation ex tending credit to owners of forest land. There Is no reason why either government or private Indus try should not consider trees just as much an asset as bouses or barns. Trees are great assets of nature that God has given us." Shopping May Be a Wearisome Work or a Pleasant Adventure Shopping has two aspects,' One Is of its tiresome element. The other Is of Its Interesting element. It Is wearisome to stand about and wait until busy salesmen have the chance to wait on you In your right turn. The walking from one store to an other, and then through the shops, In search of the needed, or wanted, thing to accord with both preference and price the purse permits, the trying on of frocks, or being fitted to articles, if clothes must be bought, all these and many other of the ac tivities of shopping are tiresome, In deed. Were it not for the pleasant reverse side of the consideration, stores would not be crowded, only dire necessity would tempt purchas ers. Fortunately all shopping Is not of this sort. Window shopping Is the feature that begins the pleasure, even be King Who Reigned 10 Days Left 10 Tons of Books The libraries formed by Henry V, of France, and by the Empress Elisa beth of Austria, have been acquired by a famous London bookseller and will probably be exhibited to the pub lic this fall. Henry V, of France, who reigned for ten days In 1830 and died as the Comte de Ohambord In 1883, was Henry, Duke of Bordeaux, a grand son of Charles X, of France. His magnificent library, consisting of ten tons of books in 87 huge cases, was eventually left to the son of Don Carlos—Don Jaime, Duke of Madrid. After negotiations lasting over a year it has been bought from his heirs and removed to London from the Castle of Frohsdorf, near Vienna. Many of the books have superb Louis XVI bindings, and a feature of the library Is an extraordinary collection of French pamphlets writ ten between 1820 and 1875, for and against the monarchy. The library left by the Empress Elisabeth consists of a huge number of volumes in lavish bindings. Liszt's Coronation Mass, 1856, is In a spe cially ornate binding of salmon pink, embossed with the arms of the em press. Smooth Article A rolling stone gathers no moss, but what a lot of polish I fore the shops are entered. Window dressers are paid well to arrange goods so that the; will appeal to passers-b; to enter. They may see wb£t they want, or perhaps what they wonld like to have. These window displays are planned to lure persons Into the shops, for compara tively few persons go through a store without buying something, however small. Windows, conse quently, are worth looking Into. It la a pleasure to do It. If windows are fascinating, this is but the beginning of Interest. Once the shops are entered, it is amazing how well and how Invitingly the wares are displayed. Any woman who has gone through just one de partment, that carrying kitchenware for Instance, will discover many ar ticles, new Ideas, or Improvements of old ones, that makes her feel repaid for the exertion. The furniture de partment or the furniture store, the yard goods department with Its handsome textiles, the dress shop,: the lingerie shop, etc., each is a joy just to look at. Shopping in large cities has both the tiresome and the pleasurable sides to the fullest degree. Shop ping in smaller places Is far less exhausting, and, when there are fine shops in that town or locality, then the enjoyable element prevails. As every normal person has more or less shopping to do, It is well, before starting out, to determine on one of two ways to shop. Either she should go with unseeing eyes straight to the department or shop where the wanted articles are to be found, and eliminate to the least possible degree the wearisome fea ture. Or she should be determined ! to Bake the trip as pleasant anti M profitable as possible, with toast ex ertion. • Bell Syndicate.—WNU Service. BILIOUSNESS m.
