N|CARAGUAN TREATY

(Continued from First Pake.)
Mr.. Bacon in his statement said in
part:
II should not favor such treaty
as that negotiated In the former ad-
ministration for the reason that II
practically turned the financial at
fairs of Nicaragua over to lot OF
private bankers, and put the army
and navy OF the United States behind
them to enforce their contract. and
the payment OF their debts.
II would prefer not to have any
thing to do with the internal affairs
Of Nicaragua, or any other country,
but II conditions require that we
should take part In them, then In my
opinion we should have some such
control or supervision a. is furnished
by the provisions found In the Plat
amendment 1t may be necessary.
and probably will be necessary. to
modify those provisions to make
them more directly applicable to the
conditions In Nicaragua.
The serious feature about the pro-
position IL that II adopted In the case
OF Nicaragua it will be the tnaugura-
ton of more far-reachinE policy
which will not be limited to NicarA-
qua, but which. In time, a. necessity
arises. will doubtless be extended to
other Central American States"

AMOS FINDS ROOT

PRIVATE OWNERSHIP AND BACK
ING KEEPS TANfMANY
IN POWER.

NEW YORK, July 20.--Amos Pin
chot suggested today that instead
of making graft and economy of ad-
the issues of the COM
ing municipal campaign the question
of municipal ownership should he
taken up, He made the suggestion
in a long letter to Francis w. Bird,
Norman Hapgood. Samuel 8. Joenig.
and chairmen of the various county
and other ORGANIZATIONS.
Mr., pinchot wrote:
1.-THE strength of Tammany lies pri-
marily in one thing--in the private
ownership OF public utilities. Tam
many's ability to win, to stay, or to
come back after defeat, depends. and
has always depended. upon the sup
port OF those powerful financial in
terests who own and operate our city
utilities. and who must control the
city government, and even the legis-
lature In order to safeguard their mo-
nopolies."

The area sought to be purchased
includes about 800 acres. The last

While the real estate problems ara
being agitated the old argument be-
tween large guns and smaller guns ID
being heard In regard to the proposed
fort. Representative Sheriey Is for
sixteen-tnch guns. the biggest made,
for the fort. but some of the army
men are for fourteen-inch guns. Cen
eral Weaver, chief of coast artillery,
has spoken for sixteen-inch guns at
the fort. One of these enormous guns
is being mounted at Panama now.
Guns of this caliher have q range
Of 900 yards and AT thar enormous
distance will perforate twelve inches

carried. The twelve-inch gun previ-
ously considered will perforate four

mind that it is the traced line on which
you will baste.. As it follows the pattern

to preserve the shaping.
To make the blouse, turn the right back
edge of the blouse under on the first line

an underlap. Next form plat at each

material folded as in the shop, you will be
obliged to purchase three yards, as you

For putting the blouse and the skirt

There are three diagrams shown. In
one is illustrated the most economical
way Of placing the front and the back of
the blouse and the sleeves upon material
"a inches in width. In another are
shown the belt cuff and collar cut from
material 36 inches wide which is the mar
rowest that will cut the belt without
piecing and, sin the third are shown the
shield and collar on material I8 inches
wide, which is the accepted width for
all-over embroidery, tucking and the
like. The skirt is only straight piece and
therefore, it is not shown in the diagram.
Before placing the blouse portion of the
pattern on the material. it will be neces-
sary only to cut off two widths of the
44-inch goods for the skirt. The pattern
gives the skirt without hem; therefore
you must cut each of these widths three
inches deeper than the pattern to allow
a hem of the usual width. If, for any
reason, you desire a wider hem. then
you must allow more. but three inches is
the width usually chosen.
