'T’HE person to ask whether the
preparation you or your family
are taking for the relief of headaches
is SAFE to use regularly is your
family doctor. Ask him particularly
about Genuine BAYER ASPIRIN.
He will tell you that before the
discovery of Bayer Aspirin most
“pain” remedies were advised
against by physicians as bad for the
stomach and, often, for the heart.
Which is food for thought if you
seek quick, safe relief.
Scientists rate Bayer Aspirin
among the fastest methods yet dis
covered for the relief of headaches
and the pains of rheumatism, neu
ritis and neuralgia. And the experi
ence of millions of users has proved
it safe for the average person to use
regularly. In your own interest re
member this.
You can get Genuine Bayer
Aspirin at any drug store — simply
by asking for it by its full name,
BAYER ASPIRIN. Make it a
point to do this — and see that you
get what you want.

France Forming Solid Front Against Germany in New
Crisis—Paraguay Made Totalitarian State— ~
Chester Davis Is Sent to Europe.
By EDWARD W. PICKARD
• Western Newspaper Union.
SIXTY thousand German troops
In the Rhineland that was sup
posed to be demilitarized. Practi
cally the entire French army In and
M. Flandin
behind the vast
system of fortlflca
tlons along
Prance’s eastern
frontier. The
French govern
ment, backed by
the other signers
of the violated Lo
carno treaty and
by the little en
tente, Poland and
Russia, demanded
that Germany
wiuiuiaw uci uuuys uuiu me
Rhineland or that sanctions, eco
nomic and possibly military, be Im
posed by the League of Nations.
Great Britain trying hard to keep
the peace, reproving Germany, sup
porting the French demands in
great measure, but urging that Hit
ler’s proposal of new non-aggres
sion pacts be given consideration.
Reichsfuehrer Hitler reviewing his
forces In the reoccupled territory
and receiving the loud plaudits of
the Inhabitants for restoring their
military sovereignty.
That In a nutshell was the peril
ous situation In Europe as the rep
resentatives of the Locarno nations
and the council of the league as
sembled In London to consider what
to do next Foreign Minister Plerre
Utlenne Flandin of France was
there with the full support of Pre
mier Sarraut for his demands that
Immediate action be taken to bring
Hitler to time. He was represent
ed as “almost convinced” that a
“preventive war” now would be
preferable to "carnage two years
hence,” and in Paris it was dis
closed that France counted on hav
lng'it her disposal, from her own
forces and those of Russia, Poland
and the little entente, a potential
army of about 40,000,000 men. It
was said 8,000,000 could be mo
bilized In 48 hours and 31,000,000
were trained reserves; and that
8,000 airplanes and a million tons
of warships were ready.
The Franco-Russian treaty came
up In (he French senate and was
ratified by a huge majority. It
Is this pact that Hitler gave as his
excuse for remilitarizing the Rhine
land, asserting that It was a viola
tion of the Locarno treaty, being
aimed at Germany. It is the final
link In the “Iron ring” around the
reich which France has been forg
ing.
At first the British government’s
response to France’s demands for
full support against Germany was
ambiguous and not satisfactory to
Sarraut and Flandin. After con
ferences with Prime Minister Bald
win and other ministers, Capt Afi
thony Eden, the young foreign sec
retary, appeared before the house
of commons and declared any at
tack on France or Belgium In vio
lation of the Locarno pact would
compel Britain to go to their as
sistance. He added, however, that
there was no reason to suppose
“the present German action Im
plies a threat of hostilities.” Then
he Indicated Britain was willing
to consider Hitler’s proposals for
new peace covenants.
The British statesmen seemed so
calm in the crisis- that there was
reason to believe they knew in ad
vance what Hitler Intended to do.
When Flandin and the other Lo
carno signatory representatives ar
rived In London, the attitude of
the British cabinet changed and
grew decidedly stlffer.
HITLER was not represented at
either the Locarno conference
or the session of the league coun
cil In London. He himself, hav
tog precipitated
tbe crisis, made
bis triumphal ap
pearance In tbe
Rhineland and
then awaited
events. His drama
tic and Sudden de
nunciation of the
Locarno treaty was
accomplished in a
speech before tbe
reicbstag and in
formal announce
Adolf Hitler
meats to the ambassadors in Ber
lin of the nations concerned. He
asserted that the troofrs he sent
Into the Rhineland comprised a
“symbolic” army only, and that the
relch, while ready to defend it
self, was wholly desirous of peace.
To prove this be offered a plan
which Includes: A demilitarized
strip of German. French and -Bel
gian land; a 25-year non-aggres
slon treaty, among Germany, France
and Belgium, with Great Britain
and Italy as guarantors; inclusion
of the Netherlands in the system of
pacts; ho air pact with the western
powers ; a non-aggression pact with
Germany’s eastern neighbors. ln
Uthuanla; and return of
to the League of Nations
■
after her equality la established and
her sovereignty restored.
France’s reply to this was that,
having just violated one treaty, Hit
ler could not be trusted to observe
another; and anyway, France would
not even listen to the relchsfueh
rer's new proposals nntll lie had
withdrawn his troops from the
Rhineland. The French army was
moved toward the frontier and the
“Mnginot line” of fortifications and
underground passages was fully
manned. This system of defenses
has been criticized because It re
quires so many troops that the
army Is rendered virtually station
ary—what has been called in Paris
'“the concrete army." Remaining
forces would be insufficient for of
fensive movement. But this fault
might be disregarded if France gets
the expected millions of soldiers
from her allies.
CHESTER C. DAVIS, head of the
invalidated AAA, Is not going
to administer the soil conservation
program devised as a substitute.
President Roosevelt .announced that
Mr. Davis would leave soon on a
trip to Europe to make a special
study for the government of eco
nomic conditions bearing oh the
agricultural plans for this country.
Critics of the administration imme
diately assumed that Mr. Davis and
Secretary of Agriculture Wallace
had disagreed and that the former
was being gently edged out of the
picture. This Mr. Wallace warmly
denied, asserting there had been
ho friction and that he bad deep af
fection for Mr. Davis
In announcing the assignment,
Mr. Roosevelt said: “In requesting
him to make this study for our
government. Secretary Wallace and
I have had In mind the distin
guished service Mr. Davis has giv
en American agriculture, especial
ly during the last two and one
half years. As administrator he
has been directing governmental
efforts which, to a considerable de
gree, were made necessary ' by
changes In the European outlets
for American farm products.
“Information to be gathered by
him at close hand ns to the precise
nature and extent of these econom
ic changes abroad is expected to
assist greatly in developing Amer
ican farm' programs."
pOL. RAFAEL FRANCO, who be
VJ came provisional president of
Paraguay after the recent revolu
tion there, has set up a totalltari
Rafael Franco
an government
modeled after Ger
m a n Nazism and
Italian Fascism.
Be Issued a decree
which declared the
state and the "lib
erating revolution”
of February 17 as
Indivisible and'
banned for one
year political, la
bor, or other un
ions which “do not
emanate explicitly from the state.”
Paraguay, the government assert
ed, will be purged of “endemic,
demagogic, Industrial, and sectari
an evils." The official statement
places in the “liberating army” the
principal source of authority.
The-alms of the new government,
the decree said, will be the con
struction of a new, strong Para
guay and constitutional reorgani
sation for a future republic.
CHIEF JUSTICE ALFRED A.
WHEAT of the District of Co

Black senate committee on lobbying.
He granted the Chicago law firm of
Silas H. Strawn an Injunction re

EARL BEATTY, commander of
the British war fleet In 1916
18 and afterward, tirat lord of the
admiralty, died In London after a
long Illness at the age of sixty
Are. Rising from s sick-bed to at
tend the funeral of Bari Jellicoe
last November, he predicted that
be would soon follow his colleague.
Lord Beatty bad a meteoric career
Great Britain is interested
and pleased to leltrn that King
Edward Vni may abandon his state
of bachelorhood and take unto him
self a wife. This was revealed
when the king authorised these
lines In the message submitting the
civil list to the house of commons:
“His majesty desires that the con
tingency of his marriage should be
taken Into account so that, la that
event, there should be a provision
for her majesty.”
Five princesses of Europe are
considered most eligible to become
Edward’s spouse. These are Irene
and Catherine of Greece (whose an
cestry Is Danish), Juliana of the
Netherlands, Eugenia of Greece,
ftnd Kyre of Russia, daughter of
Grand Duke Cyril of Russia who
is pretender to the Russian throne.
COMMUNISTS and radicals who
appeared as representatives of
the Workers’ Alliance of America
went before WPA Administrator
Harry Hopkins and made a series
of demands - that were all coldly
turned down by that gentleman.
These Included the dismissal of
Victor F. Rldder, New York WPA
director; no cut In the 3,500,000
persons on works relief, and full
union pay and union hours for per
sons on relief and pay for sick
leave. They also demanded that
all employed, whether or not on
relief rolls, be given WPA work.
IN RECENT financing operations
the government sold $1,355,643,
550 In bonds and notes, according
to Secretary of the Treasury Mor
genthau. The offerings, largest
since the Victory bond issue of
1919, were heavily oversubscribed
by banks. This borrowing brings
the public debt up to the record
figure of $31,413,000,000. The treas
ury’s cash balance is increased to
$2,675,000,000.
The funds will finance New Deal
spending In the near future, par
tially defray bonus costs and re
tire $450,000,000 worth of treasuty
bills falling due March 16.

POWERS of the federal trade
commission to investigate unfair
trade practices will be greatly
broadened by the Wheeler bill' ap
proved by the senate interstate
commerce committee. It Is vig
orously opposed by the Chamber
of Commerce of the United States,
the National Association of Manu
facturers and the American News
paper Publishers’ association. The
measure would:
Make “deceptive acts and prac
tices in commerce” unlawful in ad-,
dltlon to "unfair methods of com
petition” specified in existing law.
Expressly give the commission
authority to proceed “upon Its own
initiative,” as well as that of the
President, or either house of con
gress as now provided.
Include persons and partnerships
as well as corporations within the
scope of the commission’s authority
to Investigate business practices
and conditipns in Interstate and
foreign commerce.
Redefine "documentary evidence"
to include “books of account, finan
cial and corporate records,” and
make such records subject to com
mission subpoena.
