When asked If he would have Wor-

asked to do so.
Il haven't been mixed up in the
matter at all so far, and I would have

get tips from his Office on what was
going on in the city, ferreted out

Guido was running 2S2 bottles of
Scotch whisky down from Champlain,

this was a bootlegging cruise, come to

of Guido's candor, Topped off 500 of
his fine. That reduced Guido's loss to
a fine of $3.50, a $4,000 car and the
cost Of the liquor.

BORAH PLAN FOR

Administration Leader Declares
Idaho Senator's Proposal

BV tuitcd Press
WASHINGTON. Dec. 27--A confer

suggested by Senator Borah In conneo
tion with his proposal for an economic
conference. would be useless, Senator
Lodge declared today in a speech to
the Senate, unless France withdrew
her objections and agreed TO keep with
the other powers in lowering land
forces
Lodge thus opened the combined at
tack of the Harding Administration on
Borah's two proposals for an economic
and disarmament parley. Previously
about twenty Republican senators in
"a war council" in Lodges office
agreed 10 fight Borah's move.
Perhaps France has changed her
attitude since, barely n year ago, she
refused to consider land armament re-

Reviews Arms Conference
Lodge similarly reviewed the arms
conference failure to reach agree
rneuts on the submarine and aircraft
questions, included in the amendment
to the naval bill which the House
adopted and which Borah seeks to
broaden.
The American delegation pre-
scented a complete program to the
arms conference relating TO limitation
OF auxiliary crafts" Lodge, who was
one Of the delegates. said.
"But the French we're opposed to
the proposition. NJ. BRAND pointed
out that his government could not
accept any proposition relating to abo-
Huon of limitation of cruisers and
submarines.
Treaty Is Not Ratified

Italy have not yet ratified the naval

fcation the work OF the conference

Japan. Italy or Great Britain, that

said Lodge, therefore such a con-
ference would be futile.
Lodge said the United States should
"above all things" build war c"uisers
and airplane carriers under the
Washington treaty.
They are absolutely needed and we
have the right to have them," he as
serted.

Expanding his original intention Of
withdrawing Police Captain Claude
Worley from Evans office, where he is
assigned as an investigator for Evans,
the mayor declared in a conference
with Chief Of Police Herman F. Rik-
hoff that he was going to withdraw all
city policemen doing work in the Court
house. unless the county pays the city
$4,000 a year to cover their salaries
and agrees that reports of all tnves-
legations shall be given to the police

II don't believe the mayor will

His only evident purpose seems to be
to embarrass the enforcement Of law
in the city"
Worley said he had received no or
ders to leave the prosecutors office
and return to regular police work, but
Il am subject to orders If they come"
Answering Evans charge that he
was trying to hamper enforcement Of
the law the mayor continued:
Let me tell you something. Con-
ditions do not compare with what
they were last year when Evans was
in sympathy with the Jewett admin
istration.
During the municipal primary in
1921 I went into a dry beer saloon out
on Belmont Ave. There on Il table
was the whisky bottle and glasses.

else he would be closed up. The cop

Amerigo had grown up under the De Medic
bosses. In their great banking house he had
earned the confidence of the then financial
and commercial leaders Of Europe We are
apt to forget in modern egctism that even
in the fifteenth century the wheels Of business
were made to revove by master hands; the
wheels may not have spun on ball bearings,
but spin they did and to good purpose.
1t is patent to any one with the patience to
dig into the records that Amerigo was person
ally selected by King Ferdinand Of Spain be-
cause of his ability to represent that monarchs
interests in the several expeditions which fol-
lowed close upon the first voyages of Colun-
bus. Amergo was put on the job not because
he was great navigator, but because he was
live citizen. He was go-getter, pippin Of
a travelling man, and knew how to discard the
spotted fruit below the top layer without up
setting the barrel. BY training and oppor-
tunity he had arrived at the stage where he
could handle big business; he was accustomed
to management and knew how to get strangle
hold on the average jinx. He was successful,
and his success fed upon itself. He knew how
to get things done and he did what Columbus
could not do.
Commanding the attention Of potentates,
mercantile big-wigs and the educated public of
his day, Amerigo was able to make the Old
World realize what he himself saw--the vast
significance of the new geographical revel-
ations. Never claiming priority over Columbus
nor concerning himself at all with selfish new
world honors, the centuries of disputation over
the precise promonto1ies he rounded the bays
he anchored in, the long coast lines he explored
are beside the mark of his actual achievement.
point Of Importance in the controversy is the
fact that Amerigo was lifelong and stead

overhanker Of the mighty Medici did more
than any Of his contemporaries to add to the
final glory Of the Genoesc navigator

Besides he was busy with his bills Of lading

things easily convertible into good round

proper lad to satisfy royal exactitude.

seeing them give 20 the world an oppor+nnitv

the big part-Amerigo played. He wrote the

Had Columbus, Amerigo or John Cabot
known that these continents and islands thew
were turning up were not mere bungalow sites
and bathing beaches of Asia, but parts of an
independent hemisphere, separated from India
by still broader ocean than the one thev

furious than even that which Americas

he sailed westward the first time was the

story. Chris made a trfling miscaculation
of about $4,000 miles.
In contrast with the ideas of Columbus
Amerigo saw in the possibilities of this unex-

out to bring back to Europe chronicle of
