ANYBODY CAN JAZZ"
TAKESEXPtRT TO WALTZ

London. Sept 4.-The Jazz" is
metaphorically, if not literally, on
its last legs here in the opinion OF
Charles d Albert, secretary of the
Imperial Society of Dance Teachers,
who has told a reporter that he be-
lieved the old waltz was coming
back.
THE Fox Trot," he said, is only
popular because it consists almost
entirely of simple walk movements,
frontwards, backwards, sideways and
sliding. Therefore it is easy. The
trois temps waltz was difficult" he
said. "A man might practice it al
his life and then not be a good waltz
er. A good walter must be born
It demands swing, gait, and lissom
ness"

taking 1t despite protests made every
hour. Three or four days ago they
removed all food. milk and medicine
from the ehildren's hosFital in Blu
dapest. Eighteen children died next
day, because there was nothing to
give them. Roumania does not need
this food; Hungary is starving with
out it."
Most Americans will agree with
Mr.. Hoover in not being concerned
with the fact that 'Roumania is now
robbing those who previously robbed
her" He recalls the agreement
made last November changing the
rules Of the game" and remarks
pertinently enough that under these
new rules It is not considered the
proper thing to rob robbers.
The allied nations, or at least their
biggest and best representatives,
hold themselves above such prac-
tices, just as good citizens do in civil
life, and must do so II there is to
be established any general sway OF
justice IN the world.
II Roumania continues acting in
this barbarous way, she will have
to be cIassed morally with Germany
and Austria rather than with the
enlightened nations associated with
her in the war.

AGUIxALDo SPEAKS UP

The Philippine mission which has
been in Washington for some time
is still working diligently for Philip
pine independence, and they are
leaving no stone unturned TO gain
their object. They are trying to
prove that the PHILIPPINES are capable
of self-government and that the ma
3ority of the island people want in
dependence at once.
The mission is publishing bulle-
tins at washington and sending
them broadcast to newspapers of the
United States. Recently Kenneth l..
Roberts published an article in the
Saturday Evening Post. and stated
that Aguinaldo was against indepen-
dence for the Philippines at the pres
ent time. That set the commission
going and they Immediately got
in touch with Aguinaldo and receiv-
ed the following cablegrbam from
him:

islands. They deny the accusatic
that they are bunch OF politician
who want to gain control Of Il
