WAR CLOUDS GATHER;
EUROPE STILL FUSSING
MOBILIZATION IS BEING HUR-
RIED THROUGHOUT CEN
TRIAL EUROPE.

Another warfare throughout most
OF central Europe is feared as the re-
suit OF recent activities along military
lines, in which several nations have
unanswered their armies into strategic
points, ready to institute or repel an
invasion. Activities of bolshevists in
Russia and Germany, the strained re-
lations between France and Germany
over reparations, and actual warfare
between Greece and Turkey are but a
few of the reasons or the growing
feeling of unrest in Europe.
Reports of concentration OF Hunga-
rian forces on the western border OF
Austria have been officially confirmed
bv the government in Vienna. Hun
garian newspapers explain that these
maneuvers are due to uprislngs IN Bur
genland, but no such uprlsngs had
been reported at Vienna. 1t is SAID
that Tugo-Slav troops are also mobil-
izing on the Austrian border.
Czechs Are Mobilizing.
The maneuvers OF the first and fifth
divisions of the Czech army are under
wav. about 10000 men being concen-
trated in the Budweis area. The Brit
ish punboat G1owworm has arrived at
Vienna. constituting the only armed
foreign force in the city 1t is said that
Roumania is meeting the Hungarian
military activities on the Austrian
frontier by a similar movement along
Hungary's border.
The French troops at Mayence are
under orders to hold themselves ready
for an invasion Of Germany, according
to reports in Paris, where 1t IS SAID
the French ministers OF war and n
nance are studying plans tor military
occupation of the Ruhr basin;
This follows the deadlock between
France and England in the allied rep
arations commission over granting OF
moratorium to Germany. Premier
Poincaire's announcement that he
would rather break with the allies
than surrender to Germany brought
on the crisis, it is believed.

HOPE cox WON'T
MAKE LEAGUE ISSUE
CAMPAIGN is GOING WELL
ENOUGH WITHOUT FOR
EIGN AFFAIRS.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-There has
arrived in New York James NJ Cox,
fresh from contact with Europe
and the league of nations. He
was preceded by cabled remarks, in
dicating that he continues to think
the same as he though two years ago
about the relations between America
and Europe.
"Paramounting" Mistakes,
Because of those cable from London
last week Mr.. Cox was met on his
arrival here by some democratic lead
ers in persons and by urgent messages
from others. Some of the democratic
leaders who have not been away this
summer but are in touch with events
here at home, think that things are
going very we'll with the party. They
think they are going to win this years
congressional campaign to as great
an extent as they care to win 1t on
the issue of dissatisfaction with Hard
ing and the republican congress.
In the view of these democratic
leaders, since Harding and the repub-
licans are presenting them with as
good an issue and adequate quantity
OF campaign material as they want, it
would be contrary to all accepted
principles of political strategy for ex-
Gov. Cox to raise different issue.
To use a new verb current in the po-
litical phraseology of the present year,
the democrats "paramounted' the
issue OF republican mistakes in the
Maine election In Michigan they are
"paramounting the Newberry issue
In New Jersey the local leaders are
"paramounting' the wet" issue.
Dry Issue.
In Minnesota the local leaders are
paramounting the dry" issue.
For Mr.. Cox now to "super-para-
mount the issue OF foreign relations
on top OF all the others might embar-
rass a campaign which fate seems
to be managing quite nicely or the
democrats.
The view that it would be mis-
take for Cox to trumpet out anything
about foreign relations is held almost
universally by what may be called the
working democratic leaders; and some
of them are much concerned about it.

brought out by Small Maynard & Co, Boston. 1t may
be regarded as "the book of the week." the week

Ry Frederie ]. Haskin

WASHINGTON, April 17.-That
batik will soon be accepted as an art
in this country is prophesied by j.
p. Neigh, batik maker of this city.
Most of us have seen vivid sam
pies of batik, which we were told
We're made by drawing a design on
nateria with wax and dipping the
piece in dye to color the part unpro-
teeted by wax. We understood that
this was high Javanese art and that a
taste for it should be cultivated
Now, it seems, the most startling
outbursts of color are not necessarily
the most admirable. In fact, they
represent an early phase of American
batik makers attempts at dyeing in
the Javanese fashion.
Until recently, Mr. Eelight says,
the fate of batik in this country has
hung in the balance. Artists and
connoisseurs waited to see if flashy,
futuristic designs, displayed as typi-
caHy Jayanese batik, would he re-
placed by more subtle work. There
was danger, too. of batik becoming
porch fad, like basketry and bead
chains. If this fate were to befall,
and batik were to be made by persons
with no understanding OF technique,
color or design, then the process
the plane of fancy work. 1t would
have it's day of favor and retire.
Luckily for batik and its defenders,
its production has proved little too
difficult and too exaeting to attract
many faddists. Luckily, too, crafts
men who were turning out smocks,
scarfs and lampshades in hashed
rainbow effects eventually began to
absorb Javanese traditions which
called for softer colors and clean cut
lines. The success of our most skilled
batikers is indicated by the fact that
they often receive orders for their
work from abroad.
CrackIs Effects Passing
A recent exhibition of batik dresses
made by a New York artist was a
surprise even to some visitors who
talked learnedIy of crackle effects
and admired the right points in the
designs. The thing that surprised
them was that these dresses were
suitable for wear on the street. In
most cases, only the sleeves were
decorated with the dyed designs, and
the clear patterns in beautiful color
combinations were no more consplc-
uous than trimmings of delicately flg-
ured printed silks would have been.
This, it was agreed, was standard
for American batik.
In this exhibition there was very
little of the popular crackle effect,
produced by letting the wax on a
design crack so that the colors run
through it in thin veins. Crackle
has been so prevalent in American
batiks that many people regard it is
sure test of real batik. The Java
nese, however, regard cracking OF the
wax as flaw, because it may occur
