Italy and Germany

HNE of the curiosities of the great conflict
~ lis brought again into the lmelight by
dispatches from Rome predicting that Italy
Will declare war on Germany some time this
week. The Italian people clamor for such a
declaration, but the government as yet has
been able TO resist these demands.
1t is not very difficult TO understand why
resistance is made. German capital, in the
decade before the VIII: was poured into Italy
in enormous quantities and is employed in
many of the countrys principal Industries.
There is, in consequence of the financial rela-
Lions thus induced and of intcrmarriages OF
the German and Italian nobilites, a strong
pro-German party in Rome and the prov
inces 1t has exercised its influence on the
government to maintain the existing anon
alous situation
Yet this situation cannot last. Italvs
allies must chafe under its continuance as
we'll as 1taly's people. In one way or
another-if not this week. then within the
near future-it must come TO an end

PEANUT-ROLLING BET
HELD UP BY POLICE

The aspirations Of Mum Cannon, George
Washington University student and
member of the local chapter of Sigma
Chi Fraternity, to become the champion
peanut roller of the city came to an
abrupt end about II o'clock last night,
when police of the First precinct inter-
fered.
Cannon lost an election bet on Mr..
Hughes to H. c. Lowry. of the same
fraternity. The bet was to push a pea
nut with toothpick, held in the mouth,
sixty yards up Pennsylvania avenue from
Fourteenth street, on hands and knees.
Down on hands and knees Cannon was
going at a lively clip up the avenue past
the New Willard toward the goal, sixty
yards away. Excitement was at a high
pitch when the police put a stop to the
fun, alleging a blockade of the sidewalk,
though the fraternity had received per-
mission from headquarters In the early
afternoon to carry out the unique way of
paying a debt.

SPANISH GOVERNMENT
To MEET Paper CRISIS
viii Pay Advance in Price from the
National Treasury.

The shortage OF paper and papermaking
materials In Spain has been officially
recognized by the Spanish government
Officials are considering the expediency
of drawing on the national treasury to
pay the users of paper an amount equal
to the advance in price. This would make
paper practically the same price as 1t
was before the shortage.
This information is contained in a
statement to this government from Con-
at Barcelona, Spain. The plan under con-
Is expected to relieve the paper famine.
The entire advance on paper since the
war would be borne by the government
dustry returned to a normal condition
the government would levy a small tax
on paper for a number of years until the
treasure had been reimbursed for the
amount expended.
In this way It 10 believed by the ad-
vocates of the plan the crisis could be
met and by the aid of the resources of
the government the pressure could be
distributed over Q long period of time and
would not be felt to any great extent.
In Spain, as in this country, the public
press Of the country has been freely dis
cussing the paper shortage and many
plans have been advanced. The govern
ment Of that country has already passed
provisional legislation to foster the do
mestic industry.
Spain normally exports a large amount
of cigarette paper and several varities of
parchment to South America

CAN ANSWER DOOR
WITHOUT Being Seen
.Magiclike Device at New Burlington
Proves Friend to Tenants.

The embarrassments Of answering the
doorbel when attired only In negligee
are removed by new device known as
the "Servidor," which has been instalieo
In all the apartments Of the New Bur
Hngton Apartment hotel in Vermont ave-
nue..
This device is used for the first time
In the United States in the New Bur
nngton. All the petty difficulties OF go
ing to the door at inconvenient times
are obviated by the device, which Is so
simple that 1t cannot get out OF order.
The doors to which the "Servidor Is
attached are double paneled. Between
ments. the former allowing room Tor
clothing to be pressed or shoes to be
shined, and the latter providing space
for the delivery Of cake ice and Ice
water In thermos bottles.
When a suit is to be pressed or other
work done, the occupant Of the apart
ment unlocks the inside door OF the
"Servidor" and places the articles to
be removed in the compartment. The
bellboy is called on the telephone and
unlocks the outside door, takes the con-
tents away. and replaces them when the
work Is performed, without seeing or be-
ing seen by the tenant
It Is pointed out that q man intending
to wear his dress suit in the evening can
leave it in the "Servidor" when starting
for office. The bellboy Is notified and
has the work attended to before the own
er's return.
Both doors of the 'Servidor" are as
thick as the average house door, so that
the interior OF the house is as safe as
that Of any other house. All packages
for tenants are delivered to the baggage
room Of the apartment and taken by en-
ployes, who are always In attendance to
the "Servidor' Of the addressee.
Another important feature of the doors
Is a newly patented ventilating device
which allows a current OF air to pass
through the door, an ingress being fur
nished at the bottom and an escape at
the top. This attachment may be shut
on and the entrance or escape Of air
prevented.

new Church BUILDING
OPENED IN BRIGHTWOOD
Edi6ce Contains Kitchen and Club
Room.

Opening services Of the new Sunday
School building Of the Brightwood Park
NJ. E. Church were held at that building
yesterday morning. A sermon by the
Rev. L. Morgan Chambers. pastor Of the
McKendree NJ. E. Church. marked the
opening.
The new edifice has Just been complet-
ed. and is situated on the mound at
Eighth and jefferson streets, giving a
splendid outlook over the surrounding
suburb Of Brightwood. One of the feat
ures connected is that no public subscrip-
tion was taken. The entire amount OF
$4,000 needed was given privately by
members of the congregation. The Sun
day School building joins the church and
has many features, namely, a kitchen
with a large room connecting, used al
present as a social or club room and can
be used for either banquet or business
purposes.
Four bowling alleys have been installed,
which will be opened to the members
and their guests Wednesday. This IL the
only Methodist church south Of New
York that has this innovation.
The formal dedication will not be until
next Sunday when Bishop W. F. Nc
Dowell will deliver the principal address
at the morning Eervices.
