The treaty between the Emperor
Charles V and Francis / of France is
an example of treaty which was
longer in its making than 1t was in
its observance. 1t Is cited by all
writer's on international law and COM
mentators on peace treaties in their
arguments as to the binding force of n
treaty signed under duress-though.
as matter Of fact, every treaty
signed by defeated nation may be
said to be signed under compulsion.
1t Is also worthy of note that after the
peace conference had lasted six
and the high contracting parties to 1t
had taken their solemn oaths to OBJ
serve 1t, the emperor and the king
challenged each other to a duel over
It.
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
sent from the stricken field his cee-
brated message: "All Is lost save hon
or" Francis was taken to Spain and
moved about from one strong castle
to another, the emperor refusing to
see him except once when, Francis
falling i'll, Charles went to him and
was greeted by the French king with
the remark: $50 you have come to
see your prisoner die"
Opening Of NEGOTIATIONS.
AS early as July 20, however, nego-
tintions were opened at Toledo be-
tween the ambassadors of Francis
for he was still king of France and
had his ambassadors-and the en-.
perdr and his advisers. The terms
proposed by the imperial delegates
were harsh in the extreme and
amounted to virtual dismemberment
OF France. Henry VIII sent delegates,
being anxious to form an alliance
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 treaty with the re-
gent, Louise of Savoy, for which that
astute woman paid Henry 100000
crowns and gave the negotiator, Cardi-
nal Wolsey. II pension of 100000
crowns-a crown at that time being
worth S1.12.
the emperor gradually abated his
terms and on January IA, 1926. the
treaty was signed at Madrid. By it
Charles was to have Burgundy and its
dependencies, Francis was restored to
liberty, leaving his two sons as host
ages for the fulfillment of the condi-
tons Of the treaty, and peace was to
The Dolores star., 1919-04-25

reign. During the captivity Of Fran
els there had been cessation Of hos
tilities; but no sooner did Francis
feel himself once more seated on his
throne than he began to organize for
n renewal of the war.
After waiting three months Charles
| sent emissaries to Francis, demanding
the fulfillment Of the treaty Of Madrid.
The king said he would have to con-
suit the BurgundIans. 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
the treaty was not kept he would re-
turn and deliver himself up. Let him
keep bis OATH" said Charles. adding
some other remarks about conduct un-
becoming a man of honor, which were
reported back to Francis. Francis set
his army in motion on August =. and
the war between him and the emperor
began again after truce of hfteen
months, to last three years longer.
Angered at the charge Of bad faith
made by Charles, Francis sent her
aid to the emperor with cartel writ
ten in his own hand, saying: You
have lied in your throat in saying
that we have done anything unworthy
of gentleman of honor. Appoint u
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 fulfill
ment of treaty was n fit subject to
be decided by q duel. Charles, never
theless, sent his herald to Francis. ac-
cepting the challenge and appointing
time and place for the meeting. He
also gave the herald long written
argument on the treaty of Madrid, and
treaties in general, with which he was
TO preface the acceptance Of the chal-
lenge.
When the herald began to read.
Francis stopped him with: Il will
hear nothing but the time and place.
Does he accept?"
Permit me to do my Office" said
the herald.
May" cried the king; ''yOu shall
not speak before giving me the time
and place"
'Sire, then give me my safe conduct
home," said the herald.
Let him have it." cried the king
and so there was no duel.

boost during the war, when so many
women undertook work that demand
ed new sort of clothes. The long
step forward In the direction Of con-
venient clothes for whatever outdoor
occupation woman may choose, Will
not be retraced and we may expect
the service suit, in several variations,
to make its appearance every spring
at least. When 1t Is perfectly adapt
ed to the work in hand, not much more
will be demanded of 1t In the matter
of style, but because Its mission is
simply to be useful Is no reason why It
may not be very good looking Mt the
same time.
Here Is the service suit MS 1t looks
this spring, made of heavy, strong
cotton In the brown color that seems
best suited to its character. Some of
these worll-a-day uniforms appear In
dark blue or gray as well. so that there
is choice for individual taste In
that regard. This particular suit is
made with knickerbockers and smock

THE PEACE OF CAMBRIA 0HE LADIES' pEAcg 1929.


The famous Peace of Cambria
known as 1.-THE Ladies' Peace" because
negotiated by two women, was signed
In 1920 at town famous in the an
nails of the recent war, and put an
end to another world war" which,
with an intermission of 10 months
had been ravaging Europe for eight
years and involved all the principal
nations of Christendom. BY the end
Of 1928 it was felt that Europe was
rzhaustng itself in indecsive war
fare. The French army in the king
dom of Naples was wasting itself in
inconclusive engagements. The vast
empire of Charles V felt the strain
of the prolonged conflict and only the
gold anI silver which We're beginning

fis,aucial collapse. On all sides there
was desire for peace.
In June of 1920 peace was conclud-
~. between the pope and the emperor
Of Barcelona and it was suggested
that delegates be appointed to try and
bring about Il peace between the two
great heads of the war, the emperor
and the king of France. King Fran
CTS appointed his mother, Louise of
Savoy. and the emperor appointed his
aunt. Margaret of Austria. 1t will he
