Washington Puzzled,

What is puzzling Washington is that
the demand for the provinces on the
left bank of the Rhine should be so
urged by France, when at the time of
the signing of the armistice everything
pointed to the fact that France would
relinqpish her claim in that respect.
In facN when l arrived in Paris in De-
oember the question asked of Col. House
whether the French had given UP their
claim to the left bank Of the Rhine,
he said the American government had a
written pledge from the French which
amounted to a REIMBURSEMENT of that
claim.
1t was, to be sure, generally under
stood among French writers that such
a position had been adopted by the gov
eminent, but no official statement was
made. Therefore it would not be sur
prising II, after all, the French receded
on this claim but made 1t the basis for
obtaining concessions in other direc-
lions.
1t is precisely this method Of trading
and bargaining which liz called Euro
pean diplomacy n which is believed
by French sympathlZers here to be re-
sponsible for some OF the irritation man
ifested by the American delegates and
reflected by the American correspond
ents In their cables to this country. Not
understanding the language and the d.
plomacy Of France, the American dele
gates are believed to have grown impa-
tient and irritated,
A much more sympathetic tone Ia re-
Vealed by some of the British writer's
who have lived closer to France and un-
derstand her methods, AS for the

Hun Wastes Soap
As Others Suffer


NEWARK, n. j.. April AT a
time when his fellow
would have exchanged n field piece
for a cake of CASTLE, Capt. Franz
Won Rintelen, convicted German
plotter with an aversion for the At
lanta penitentiary, was blowing soar
bubbles in the Newark jail in an
effort TO convince examining physi-
clans he was suffering from tuber-
culosis.
This became known today, when
officials of the jail asserted the ex-
German naval officer had Dor
rowed' all the soap possessed by
his fellow prisoners and, after
having eaten It by the pound, had
emitted from his lips a foam which,
for a time. puzzled the doctors. But
the u~npalatable meal was eaten In
vain for, still spouting bubbles, Won
Rintelen was shipped South.

The league is not yet in force though United States is threatening to do something about it very But France and Italy have done nothing about yet and seem in hurry to proceed. In fact, Great Britain of all the great nations which participated the peace conference is the only that has ratified the work the conference.
 How war between Belgium and Holland would end is hard to say. Belgium had before the great a strength of 1SO,000 men. Holland has a very elaborate military system and skeetonzed army of 120000. It has also had for long time universal service and training system and is much better equipped with armament than Belgium. It has population of nearly 6oOOOOO Belgium had before a population of 7445 o00 Holland has few fortf- cations and need for only few dykes are suf- ficient protection against successful invasion
 Belgium has navy. Holland has one entirely out of proportion to it's size population It siss of six small battleships six cruisers monitors, gun boats destroyers and submarines.

 The wages of sin is death. I think of poor Mary Thomas. Even had she escaped that strange fate beneath the waves, sooner or later the price in full which was charged up to her she would have paid. And think again of Certeis-destroyed by the very force that lured him to evill
 At least it has been a blessed com fort to know that Certeis could not de- stroy Chrys. But of course I couldn't say that out loud to anybody. We have all been pretending to save Chry's pride. It would be terrible for her to get a hint that she had been about to throw herself away upon spy and a villainl
 Thus I meditated as I recuperated from the shock of being half drowned. No sooner had I recovered than I was almost prostrated by a shock of an other kind
 Chrys had kept to her room for seN eral days. and before we met again, mother thought best to break me to the next revelation in the story of her daughters life.

Climate

We have now come to delightful season of the year in the Salt River valley. We assured of eight months of it. Life will be worth while here than in any other place we know of. Between November and March 1 there is not in all the country another such a climate. Experts and travellers among whom was the late Whiteaw Reid have agreed that nowhere else in the world there such winters

SUPERVISORS CLERK SIGNS HIS NAME 4,OOO
 TIMES ON ROAD BONDS

w. K. Bowen would not have to take memory course to spell his name backward or to start in the middle and give a letter from either side as rap idly as he could repeat the letters B. owen.
 In four days, the chairman of the board of supervisors signed his name 4,000 times and then took the first train to Phoenix and found the $4,- 000,000 draft had preceded him. Bowen. with Clarence Standage, clerk of the board, have returned from Chicago where they received the funds for the county Highway bonds voted some time ago. The bonds were signed in due form, leaving Bowen with a writ CTS cramp.
 He stated yesterday that the actual road work would not commence before the first of the year. The county high way commission will Tn the meantime prepare for the construction work which will be rapidly forwarded when once under way. The supervisor stated that the sand and gravel plant would shortly be built at Tempe west of the railroad bridge on state school land, the commission having advertised for machinery.

the gods of love that Bob-my own Bob, drawn by the mysterious attrac- tion which is always pulling us to- gether-had followed me and saved me from so hideous a fate.
 l could not die-I could not-until had had one more chance to prove to my husband the depth and worth of my love. Bob saved me from marry ing Hamilton Certeis before the war. And his love for me kept me fit. to be his wife despite that time of great temptation while the war was on, and when so many of the stricter bonds were slackened a bit in the world around, and likewise in my own secret life.
 I wonder if good always triumphs over evil? In my own experience it in variably has. Certeis' adoration for me always stood for that which destroys But good love- like Bobs, saves and builds up.

The Palace-on- Wheels, Friday.

The Palace on Wheels, Friday. My Dearie Joan:
 1 might know he would make no idle threats. Ever since that night at din ner when I taunted him on his com mercial- -mindedness this steel-and- granite John Heron has "concentrat- ed" as the mental scientists say, op me
 Conceit on my part, you'll say. No It is his conceit. Some men show van ity by strutting and wearing fine raj ment. Others by displaying physical prowess. Still others try to exert per sonal charm by making love-
 Herron's way is none of these. He is immaculate and clad in the height of fashion But you somehow get the impression that he was born in good clothes and that a perfect appearance IS to him a matter of course just as the expensive appointments of his of flee are. He makes no "eyes" at me. No fine speeches. He treats me polite ly, but very much as though I were the distaphone.
 His way of impressing me is to parade the power of his mind-his in- fluence, his ability to bring about miracles and make fairy tales come true.
 I thought at first he knew only rail- roads and hotels. I find he has studied architecture and accounting. landscape gardening, and the manufacture of steel, finance and-frivolity. Every thing indeed that has any bearing upon his job.
 He manages to show all this off in his dictation to me. He evidently knows that a mans mind when it is great and powerful, frightens and at the same time thrills woman like a giants muscles, or the huge waves of the ocean, or thunderstorm
 Also there is constant procession of men who come to him whenever we stop. Delegations, chambers of com merce, committees, individuals, all come to his desk, pleading, arguing, faWnlng or trying to buster
 They know that by a wave of his wand some splendid hotel will spring up, a community, a whole town even.

 See what a magician I am!" he seems to say, "I make or break men as I choose. I juggle destinies. l build cities! I am the super captain of industry! Do not all others seem small and weak in comparison?"
 Sometimes I thrill with admiration Other times I hate him for what he can do to people and places.
 He could take a town like dear old Bentsville, for example, put up pala- tial hotel in place of the Higgins house map out business block that would make the Bee Hive arcade look sick plan a lakefront pleasure resort that would throw Moonlight Park into

Thank Fate For Chry's Escape, Then
 Get a Shock


 In my perplexities concerning the death of that master spy whose pas sion had so strangely pursued and twisted my own career, I cannot but cringe before the belief that he had fully intended to make me share his death, since would not share his life.
 Had not Certeis vowed at the very end, just as he had sworn many a time before, that 1 was the only woman he had ever truly loved?
 His life had been a sinister drama It was like him to attempt to round it off with a magnificent climax And what would seem more magnificent to his passionate mind, in his last des- perate state, than to steal the only woman he had ever honestly loved, to snatch her from her place among the living, and carry her away with him into eternity?
 Whenever I think of that dreadful hour, grow cold. I never wish to look upon the sea again. And I thank all
