ENLARGED NAPLES MOB

 Enraged over published reports of harsh words directed against the Italian delegate by the French pre- mier, band of demonstrators con sisting for the most part of students and Fascist, paraded the principal streets of the city, crying Down with France" They then proceeded to st- tack the French consulate here, but they were faced with a special de- tachment of 800 troops that had been called to restore order.

FREEDOM OF CITY
 ONCE BOUGHT WITH. SIX BEAVER SKINS.
Visitors Formerly Had to File Petitions in Court for Freedom and Promise
 to Obey Law
By Associated Press

New York, November 2s.-"To one freedom of the city, six beaver skins
 Entries like this would have dotted the debit side of the expense accounts of Foch. Diag, Beatty, Jacques and others of the brilliant procession of old world figures drawn to America in the wake of the World war, had earlier.
 And instead of riding at the head of triumphal processions to the city halls of various municipalities, there to receive the freedom of the city at the hands of respectful mayors. to the accompaniment of bands and cheering threngs. they would have had to file petitions in court for their freedom and take oathS not to offend against the law of the land.
 Conferring of the freedom of a city on a visitor has come to mean almost precisely the opposite of what 1t meant in the young days of America and-earlier-in the medieval days in merrie England.
 Origin of Custom Lott
 The origin of the custom of grant ing the freedom of the city to aliens is virtually lost in antiquity" said Professor Harold McBain, instructor in municipal government at Columbia university commenting on the round of brilliant receptions that have kept the mayors of New York and other cities almost constantly in tall hats and frock coats in recent months.
 Tt appears, however to have grown directly out of the medieval organiza tion of industry on a monopolistic basis, and was originally an economic measure, pure and simple.
 Tn the old English borough 1t amounted to a license to carry on business and, later, to vote. Without the status of freeman, conferred by the grant, man could not rise above the class Of employe.
 The early Dutch settlers of New Amsterdam-now New York-set up q similar status, called the burgher right, in l64S. as a protection against Scotch merchants and petty traders who spoil trade and business by un- derselling.' Persons not holding the burgher right were prohibited from conducting business either with Christian Or heathen.' The fee was six beaver skins.

The raid resulted in a pro test to President Harding by Mayor Stewart of Savannah, who declared the Garden home was entered with cut a warrant and apparently with out Justification
 Commissions Haynes, however, de- clared no report of the case had reached him, and declined to discuss the attitude of the enforcement unit toward the alleged action of an agent In entering a home without a war rant.
 The report was understood to have asserted that entrance into Miss Gar den's house was made by mistake be- cause of confusion in finding the back door of the house which pro- hibition agents intended to search.

Alsace of Poland

Washington, b. C.-"Galicia? Oh yes, that's in Spain, or was it the place St. Paul wrote a lot of let ters to?"
 This answer to a geography exam ination question hits wide of the mark both times, but Galicia bids fair to become better known because Of disputes with Czecho- -Slovakia and Ukfaine, not to mention renewal or the age-old dissention between the Poles and Ruthenians who are about equal numerically among it's own population.
 A bulletin from the Washington, D. C. headquarters of hte National topographic society describes the present day Galicia as "a region about the size of North Carolina. with eight times the population of that state, handicapped by it's geographical location and immortalized by it's his tory.
 Restored to Poland, Galicia forms the southernmost area of that nation, with Ukraine, Rumania and Czecho- Slovakia lying along it's borders. Ma ture was not kind to ,Galieia because the Carpathians, which shield Hun gary from the cold Baltic winds, turn
 
 warmer breezes of the south. Where a Galician panhandle cuts into CAecho Slovakia. round about the lit tie town of zakopane, rises the high Tatra range to form a happy hunt ing ground for fishermen, naturalist and excursionlst.
 For the most part Galicia is a bleak plain A dense population ekes out a scanty existence from it's soil, Before the World war many of it's peasants had to leave their families in their primitive matched huts while they went to Russia for a part of the year to augment their incomes. Yet, while Galicia was part of Aus tria. it had more than half the horses of the empire. and manufactured. nearly half of the spirituous liquors consumed in Austria.
 Austria acquired Galieia upon the first partition of Poland, four years before our Declaration of 1ndepend-

courteously granted.
 But so far as solution is con- cerned, such a procedure could lead nowhere. Therefore, last Mondays s session, despite eloquence expended and despite the warm sympathy ex- pressed with the French viewpoint, has an academic character which dis appoints the hopes of efficiency" with which until now the French have been surrounded.
 The newspapers Keep repeating the phrase, 'Briand pleaded the French cause" Some even speak of his seek ing a verdict" These expressions astonish many Frenchmen, There is similar astosishment s' MT. Balfour's S allusion 10 French fears"
 France Has No Fears
 France has no fears and asks mo- body's verdict. Nor does she feel the need of som ebody to plead" for her. To imagine us in that frame of mind Is an error which may lead to mis- understanding. The true situation is much simpler.
 As for security, France agreed at Versailles to limit the occupation on the left bank of the Rhine to IS years if granted sufficient guarantees against German aggression. These were COHldlHe0 III two special treaties with America and England. Treaties not solely for France but offered by our allies and associates in the war. Since the treaties have not been ratified, these guarantees do not exist. Therefore, France has sovereign right to em- ploy those guarantees existing in the treaty of Versailles. namely, the. oc- cupation of the left bank of the Rhine beyond i6 years. France has also those guarantees which every free country has an inalienable right to utilize-the maintenance of her mill tary forces at a level judged neces- sary for defense.
 These facts are uncontrovertible. Moreover, nobody at Washington has set himself as a judge over Frances s security. When Secretary Hughes produced naval program he did not seek anyone's advice concerning the figures as to tonnage deemed neces- sary and indispensable to American security. Nobody has asked France to reduce her forces in the face of a moral and material menace which re-

 While Galicia escaped political op- pression she was in frequent turmoil from political controversy. Only about 45 per cent of her population was Polish; nearly as many were Ruthenians, leaving a balance of power with other nationalities. But the Poles wers able to dominate the Galician government entirely and they even provided Austria with a premier at one time. and a foreign minister at another.
 Though more than three-fourths of Galieia's s,250,00e people get their living direct from the soil, the region has two important minerals, petrol cum and salt, and, in lesser quantity, iron and coal. The salt mines at Wieliczka are unique. They have been worked for seven centuries, at least. Statuary, crucifixes, and even a miniature cathedral have been hewn out of the rock salt by pious work men of centuries ago. Ponies born blind draw little cars over a tiny railway. Ferry boats navigate lakes in the mines. The damp salt atmos- phere shortens the lives of the work CTS. yet their pre-war wage was the equavalent of about 20 cents a day
