The treaty between the Emperor
Charles V and Francis ! of France Is
an example Of a treaty which was
longer In Its making than II was In
It's observance. 1t Is cited by all
writer's on international law and com.
m%entators on peace treaties In their
arguments as to the binding force Of q
treaty signed under duress-thOugh.
rs a matter Of fact. every treaty
signed by a defeated nation may be
said to be signed under compulsion.
II is also worthy of note that after the
peace conference had lasted six
months. the treaty had been signed
and the high contracting parties to 1t
had taken their solemn Oaths to OBJ
serve It, the emperor and the king
challenged each other to q duel over

In February. 1925. the armies of
France were defeated at Pavia by
the armies of Charles v, emperor of
Germany and king Of Spain. The
French king was taken prisoner and

brated message: "All Is lost save hon.

moved about from one strong castle
to another, the emperor refusing to

was greeted by the French king with
the remark $50 you have come to

Opening Of Negotiations.
AS early as July 20. however. nego-
tiatlons were opened at Toledo be-
tween the ambassadors of Francis

with the emperor and share In the
spoils. But the English people. for
once. firmly opposed Henry's policy.
SO he switched around to the French
side and signed a treaty with the re-
gent, Louise Of Savoy. for which that
astute woman paid Henry 100000
crowns and gave the negotiator, Cardl-

crowns-a crown at that time being

Titles; but no sooner did Francis
feel himsel: once more seated on his
throne than he began to organize for
q renewal of the war.
After waiting three months Charles
sent emissaries to Francis. demanding
the fullllment Of the treaty Of Madrid.
The king said he would have to con.
suit the B%urgundians. The Burgun-
dians refused to be handed over.
Francis would pay an indemnity for
Burgundy and keep the rest Of the
treaty. including the REIMBURSEMENT Of
all his italian possessions. ="
Francis Set His Army In Motion.
The king Of France swore that II

turn and deliver himself up. Let him
keep his OATH" said Charles, adding
some other remarks about conduct IN

reported back to Francis. Francis set
his army In motion on August 8. and
the war between him and the emperor

have lied In your throat in saying
that we have done anything unworthy
Of a gentleman Of honor. Appoint a
time and place Of meeting and we will
bring our sword for you to cross"
When Charles received this chal-
lenge he consulted the grandees Of his
kingdom. The duke OF Infantado gave
the opinion that, whatever might be
the popular opinion, kings were bound
by the laws of honor as other people.
However. he did not think the fulfil.

a time and place for the meeting. He

Motoring

I leave the city's noise behind
its stone and brick built sec
tors-forsake awhile the beastly
grind, and all the bill collectors.
l climb on high the verdant hills,
the azure heavens DER me, for
getting bailiffs and their bills
and all the things that bore ME.
It is pleasant thing to go away
from toll and knitting; my car is
working like a 10, its cylinders
all hitting. Oh, Scott may sing
of Lochinvar, whose charger
was hummer but give to me
the modern car, and long, long
days of summer. I chug along
by wood and glade and by the
babbling waters, salute the
farmer with his spade, and gos-
sip with his daughters. At in
tervals my car l stop, some
quaint old signboard reading j;
and now and then a rural cop
would run me in for speeding.
I loaf along, eight miles an hour,
the motor working nifty, and
then, to show l have the power,
I shove her up to fifty. Through
dale and dell, on dune and down,
I throw the dust behind me; and
tired collectors scour the town
with bills, and cannot find me.
I look around in silent glee upon
the landscapes splendor, until I
run against a tree and bust a
wheel and fender. Then I go
liinping back to town, my kind
of luck berating; and find the
bailiffs all camped down in stern
and watchful waiting.

Merchant Marine Reborn.

zone of the chief compensations OF
the burden of the great struggle is
the restoration of the American mer-
chant marine, or rather it's rebirth,
for we are building upon a scale that
was not dreamed of even in the early
days when the American flag and
American commerce were seen in all
parts of the world. In spite OF the
mistakes due to haste and the high
cost under war conditions, a great
and lasting good has come from the
revival of shipbuilding in the war.

of America must be united in the de-
velopment of a merchant marine and

contribute to the supplying of the
needs of other nations. but insure
