WASHINGTON, Feb. 12-Although
all efforts of the International Com

has failed. there is sim hope of an
agreement. Under Secretary of State

Japan claims the right to control
cable landings there. It is learned
Italy's representative. It Is learned,

able to block any agreement which
would deny equal rights TO all nations

DYNAMiTiNG IN ELECTIONS

The dispatches bring report of a
novel feature introduced into an
aldemanic campaign in Chicago. 1t
has long been considered perfectly
proper in a political campaign to
blow up ones opponent with words.
Wind is plentiful in Chicago and
there is no good excuse for resort
ing to the dynamite argument for
purposes of blowing up. 1t seems
one candidate has acquired, through
holding the job of alderman for thirty
consecutive years, what might fairly
be termed fixed habit. He doesn't
propose to be deprived of it. When
someone attempted to blow up his
domicile with dynamite several weeks
ago the incident appears to have
operated as a suggestion, and on
election day sixteen of his opponents
followers were blown up by a dyna-
mite bomb thrown at them. Uncle
Samuel is a wonderful old assimila-
Tor but this dynamite electioneering
is little too strong meat for the old
gentleman at his time of life.
