will have with them a small army
of counselors. military attaches,
first secretaries, second secretaries

Time was when the old residents
of Washington could recognize al
most any uniform seen on the
streets of the National Capital as
belonging to the army or navy of
this or that country. But today
there is need for some handy

ufacturing beer alleged to be nom
intoxicating. but containing more
than one-half OF 1 per cent of alco-
hoI.
The brief, which was prepared by
Elihu Root and William D. Guthrie,
contends the amendment is invalid
because in reality 1t is legislation out
side the scope of limitations imposed
by article of the Constitutions: that
it impairs tie states police or gov
ernmental powers. and that it has
not been ratified by three-fourths the
states, because of referendum pro-

Not all the peoples sending in their

to do something to save them from
extinction by the Turk, such as TAX
ing the mandate over an Armenian
republic. Korea has not given up
hope of throwing off the yoke of
Japan. and representatives of what
was once "the hermit kingdom" are
in Washington, to press their claims

pie at large. rather than through
diplomatic channels. Because of
the great number of Irish in the
United States. Eaamon De Valera,
hailed as president of the Irish re-
public, occupies a unique position
among those pleading their cause

this country.
New governments which have
sprung into being as result Of

this government are Finland. Po-

Washington has become a joust-

There are now forty-four accred-

Washington, and almost half as
