What is street commissioner for, if not to catch

What streets compared to dogsa Does corespon

Of course, picturesque streets with their snow

people will cheerfully put up with drowning the

The city orders the individual to take the snow off

(United Press staff correspondent
Bucharest, Dec. Is. - "A whole

sheyism,' King Ferdinand of Rouma-
MIA declared in an interview with the
United Press today. :.
The king received the corresponds
ent at his palace at Sinai, near Bu-
charest.
I'VE are devoting great attention to
internal problems as well as the con-
lsolidating of Roumania," he said. L
consider the land reform movement
our most important task. This already
! is about one half completed in Rou-
mania"
The king said he had been giving
practically his entire attention to the
Hand problem and had made person
/ al announcements to his troops at the
front.
"I don't think irredentism is like
ily to develop in our newly acquired
TERRITORY" the king said, declaring
he depended upon the land reform
movement to head off any action in
this direction.
Pennsylvania will not receive local
autonomy, King Ferdinand said
However, he added the non-Rouman-

Don't be silly! You know we must
all be seen in public together"
"You know" he said miserably
