At the signing OF the Convention of
olmutz, Austria appeared for the last
time as the wielder Of the hegemony
of Germany; the convention marked
the last stage of Prussias descent in
the scale of Germanic influence I'M
der Frederick William ~ and the be-
ginning of the rise of that nation TO
the supreme Teutonic power.
After the Congress Of Vienna in
1915 there had been constituted the
Germanic confederation to take the
place Of the defunct Holy Roman en-
pire. II was a more or less shadowy
affair, born In trouble and filled with
troubles to the end of its days. In
this confederation Austria, backed by
the states of South Germany, had the
preponderance of power, The reyolu-
tionary movement which swept Eu-
rope in 184S shook all Germany. In
Berlin Frederick William was obliged
TO make terms with the revOlutionists
and at one time the Austrian emperor
was driven from his capital only to
be relnstated by force of arms. The
question of succession to the throne
OF the duchies of Schleswlg and Hol-
stein was in agitation and Prussia de-
clared war on Denmark. The Russian
car, who as representative of the ell
der branch of the former reigning
house of Gottorp, sOvereigns of the
duchies, was personally interested
and took a hand. Russia and Eng
land brought pressure to bear and a
truce was arranged between Denmark
and Prussia while a conference met in
October, 1913, at London, to settle the
dispute. Denmark demanded that
both duchies should be "indissolubly
connected" with the Danish crown.
Prussia refused to agree and on April
3, 1S49, the war was renewed.
Prussia Desired Peace.
But, harassed by the actions OF the
confederated council at Frankfort
Prussia desired peace, soon opened
direct negotiations with Denmark and
another truce was proclaimed on July
10. The rest of Germany, led by Aus
tria, declared this Independent action
of Prussia betrayal of the confed-
Grafton which claimed the duchies as
'reichland." The car said that the
right of the king of Denmark to the
duches must be recognized; the Hol-

The treaty Of Zu,ich, signed on No
yember 10, 1859, virtually created the
modern kingdom Of Italy. 1t put an
end to the war which Sardinia and

now the southeastern corner Of
France. Under the guidance Of Car
your the king of Sardinia had become
the head and front of the nationalistic
movement which was stirring all Italy
when he threw his troops into the
Crimean war and gained an ally In
France. When the Peace OF Paris
closed that war Carvour boldly told the
assembled delegates that Italy would
never cease TO be hotbed of unrest

were expelled. With this idea he had

that is employed but once, viz: to
form a million by taking the second
power of 1000. The very, next step
consists in abandoning the thousand
and substituting the million, thus
vastly increasing the interval be-
tweent the following periods, so that
in order to indicate convenient in
termediate numbers between n mil
lion and a billion (English) one is
obliged to employ such locutions as
thousands of Millions" tens OF
thousands of millions" hundreds OF
thousands of millions" just for lack
of the logical intervening stop that
is neatly furnished by the French
billion.
1t is true that our system (the
French) also changes it's base, but
1t does so only once, viz, from tens
of thousands, the latter being re.
tanned until the highest period is
reacffed.
The growth of the power of the
trained mind to form a definite
conception of the gigantic numbers
represented by the higher numera
periods (say, up to seXtillions, in the
lFranco-American system) is one OF

FRANCES WOMEN
SEEK PLACE FOR

Ask Justice in Name of Mar
tyred Sisters; Scores War
Crimes
BY Associated Press

Paris, Jan. 22.-A claim that
women should be given place in
whatever bodies may be created for
putting into effect /the idea of q
League of Nations is made in a res
olution presented to the Peace Con-
ference by an organization of
French women Under the presidency
of Madame Juliate Adam. This res
olution accompanied that passed by
the organization in which the de-
mand was made that those respon-
sible for atrocities during the war be
punished as criminals, so as to pre-
vent the recurrence of barbarities.
The text of this latter resolution
reads:
"In violation of the primitive law
of humanity thousands of women
and girls, even children, of all So
cial conditions have ben systemati-
cally torn from their families, sub
mitted to inhuman tortures and
treated as slaves.
with broken and bleeding hearts.
we women of France and the Allied
countries come before the peace con-
gress to ask justice in the name of
our martyred sisters. To prevent a
recurrence of similar atrocities, we
ask that those who have directed
them and ordered them may be con-
demned as criminals"
Another resolution was adopted
setting forth the work women did
during the war and demanding that
women "claim their place in all
future institutions of the league oil
nations in legislative and executive
branches of governments"

"a claims that billion has ten
figures the world over: M says that
only in America and France 1t has
ten figures, and that in all other
countries it has thirteen, thus: l.
600, 900, 100000 Please oblige us
with an answer.-F. b. T."
Neither "A' nor "B" is quite
right. A billion has ten figures in
France and America, and their col
ally throughout Latin countries. 1t
has thirteen figures in England and
Germany, and generally. though not
universally, in their colonies and de-
tendencies. The first system will
certainly be the one finally to sur
Vive everywhere on account of it's
incomparably greater utility and
convenience.
There was o time, even after the
world became civilized in the mod
ern sense, when a million and it's
second power sufficed for the con-
venient notation of any number
practically used, even for astro-
nomical magnitudes, and it seems
not to have occurred to the inven-
tors of the Anglo German billion.
which is a million-million, that men
would ever wish, or need, to employ
conceptions of number as are con-
tanned in the terms trillions, quad
rillions, quintillions, sextillions, etc.
These were treated as virtual alb
stractions which simply suggested,
vaguely. enormous, ungraspable
numbers, and under the rule by
which billion was made to consist
| of million multiplied by itself, or
raised to the second power of n mil
| lion, quadrillion the fourth power,
and so on, so that by a few swift
leaps the scale of numeration disap-
peared in the clouds of incompre-
.hensible immensity.
To see how this system works
and how it renders everything
aboveea trillion, or at most a quad
rllion, utterly unmanageable, ap-
ply the rule a few successive times
Thus: billion (Anglo-German)
! equals. 100000 100000, OIL
j, 900, 00O, 900, 900; a trillion equals
1, 100000 100000 x 100000, ol
l, 900, ,000, 600 ,0O0, 600, 900; and so on
a sextillion becoming row OF
thirty-seven figures, while vigin.
ttillion, the highest named numera
period. contains hundred ant
twenty-one figures, being a millior
raised to the twentieth power!
On the other hand, the Franco
American system uses 1000 in
stead of 100000 for the base il
calculating the higher periods, {
billion being the second power o.
1000, a trillion the third power o.
1000, ETC., so that the higher
periods. up to quintillions, or ever
seXtillions, are manageable, and, So
to speak, usable. For instance, tn,
weight of the earth in tons is ex
pressed in sextfllions on this system
whereas by the other system it mus
be expressed in the relatively cum
brous form of thousands of tril
lions Our system also avoids tn,
inconvenient break made by tn,

changed for thousand as the basa
number whose successive powers ar,
