the legislature held in August,
1919. The first mentioned pro-
vides for the incurring Of in
debtedness by counties for fur

unfavorable climatic condi-
tions, have been rendered des-
titute or in need of aid. Un-
der each law it is provided that
petitions for relief must be in

ferent sections of the state in
connection with the proper
procedure to be taken by those
who desire to avail themselves
of the laws under which seed
grain may be furnished farm

to obtain in addition to seed
grain, feed, provisions and the
other necessary supplies. Com

FOR HUN TO D|SARM
tBy Associated Press)

SPA, Belgium, July S.-A compro-
mise with Germany on the time to be
allowed her for disarmament, fixing
the period at six months, looked to be
the probable outcome today of the
conference among the allied delegates
here. The Germans had asked for 10
months in which to disarm.
The allied Representatives met this
morning and for two hours and a half
discussed the German plan presented
yesterday. 1t resulted in an agree
ment being reached upon the attitude
that should be taken on the disarma-
ment question The full conference,
the meeting time of which had been
set for noon, was postponed until 8: 80
O'Clock, when, 1t was stated, the allies
would make known to the Germans
the final decision regarding disarma-
ment. Nothing was given out Off
cially as to the decision, but it was
understood il had been agreed to al
low the Germans six months in which
to disarm.

Franklin Pierce was the second
dark horse and the third New En-
glander to enter the White House. Aft
er three score years and ten he re-
mains the latest President to be drawn
from the six states which occupy the
upper right hand corner Of the Ma
tlonal map. Even he was chosen not
as a representative Of New England,
but rather as an agent Of the South,
and New Hampshire debated half
century before it gruding1y set up IN
the yard of the capital at Concord a
statue Of her only president
Franklin Pierce. the president, may
have few friends; but Frank Pierce,
the man, had more friends than most
presidents have been able to boast
One Of his fellow students at Bow
dom College was Hawthorne. and
their lifelong friendship bridged the
wide gulf between politics and litera-
ture. The author of the Scarlet Let
ter wrote Pierce's campaign biogra-
ply, received from him an appoint.
ment as consul at Liverpool, and at
last died in the company Of the ex
president while the two friends we're
enjoying together a White Mountain
vacation.
Hawthorne admitted in his cam
paign eulogy that Pierce was not dis
tinguished for scholarship in the earli-
err part of his stay at Bowdoin. The
unveneered fact is that the genial
Frank was registering youth who did
not let his studies interfere with his
pleasures When he discovered in his
Junior year that he stood at the foot
of his class his first impulse was to
cut out college altogether rather than
cut out the designations. He absented
himself from all the exercises for sew
eral days in the hope of expulsion, or
Of suspension, at least.
After devoted friends had wrestled
with him, he called off his strike and
thenceforth did his best to make good
in their eyes. For three months, Haw-
thorne tells us, he rose at and retired
at midnight and gave TO his studies
all but four of the "a hours. Once he
had conquered the mind which had
run wild so long, he could take his
work easier, but he never again re-
ceived black mark, and he graduated
third In his class.
Entering law and politics at a time
when his father, was a Democratic
leader in New Hampshire, an easy
path to promotion lay before this
handsome, friendly young man. He
declined as MANY offices as he &C
cepted. Political honors gravitated to
him so unsought that his ambition was
dulled, and at last he was perhaps as

unambitious as any man who ever
gained the presidency.
A member Of the legislature at 29,
while his father was governor, and
twice a member Of congress, he was
a senator of the United States at 80.
Resigning when his term had yet a
year to run, he afterward refused a
second election to the senate and re-
fused the governorship and also the
attorney generalship of the United
States.
Mrs Pierce was the daughter Of a
former president Of Bowdoin College
and a delicate, retiring woman, who
massed her life in the shadows Of the
early loss of two of her three children.
Stunning the glare Of public station,
she fled from Washington. Rather
than be separated from his wife, her
husband, who felt for her chivalrous
devotion, quit the Senate and declined
a seat in Folks cabinet. In a little
footnote to history Henry Watterson
adds that the convivial senator was
doing no good in Washington anyhow,
and that Washington was doing him
no good.
The Mexican War tempted Pierce
from his retirement, and, 5 Briga-
der General, he served with Scott in
the advance on the City OF Mexico
Afterward there were partisan slurs
on his military service, but his sol
dierly courage has been vouched for
by Grant, who says that he knew him
more intimately than any other of
he citizen generals in that war.
Returning to his family and first
class law practice at Concord, Gen
eral Pierce. at 43. had no thought
that any further public distinction
awaited him. Yet the White House
was only four years off.

ance, for it raises the whole issue OF
the constitution OF the league.
According to the practice OF inter
national law as hitherto observed
every nation in international confer
ences is treated as a unit. The repuo-
lie Of San Marine has one vote, and the
republic OF the United States has an
other. Does any sane individual really
contend that the American people
would allow themselves TO be outvoted
by the republic of San Marine joining
forces, say. with the republic of
Nicaragua

SAN MARiNo's ARMY AND NAVY

The League Of Nations is determined
to do some definite business, and has
according to the report published in
the Morning Post-instrucIed its per
manent military commission TO study
measures regarding the military and
naval forces Of the republic OF San
Marine" If the members of the
league had deliberately set out to make
themselves a laughing stock they
could hardly have passed a resolution
more suitable for the purpose.
One other piece Of business the
league did, apparently on the motion
OF Mr.. Balfour. They decided that
their officials should be appointed for
five years. and they Professionally fixed
the salaries. 1t would be interesting
to know in what proportions the diff
ferent members OF the league con-
tribute to these salaries. That ques-
ton has more than financial import

Millions of tires are being made ans
