league be strengthened? England Is anxious for the inclusion of Germany and is prepared for the inclusion of Ireland. Unfortunately the Irish Free State treaty has not been rat flied by both England and Ireland. But for that obstacle, Ireland might have been admitted to the league at the present assembly meeting.
 The discussions in the assembly of the subjects of reparations and arr maments have gone to the heart of the troubles of Europe. Even with It's present one-sided constitution, the league expresses more and more of stability to the reasonable mind of the world. and best of all, it comes in sharp conflict with the idea of a French hegemony over Europe. The supreme council broke down under the weight of that policy. Will the league break down, too? The strug- gle will be a hard one, but a hopeful factor is that France Is beginning to realize two things. One is the financial folly of her present policy and the second is the growing hos tility of the world to a substitution or French military domination in Eu- rope for Prussian military domina- ton.
 Eyes on America
 The more that the United States makes clear that it will have noth- Ing to do with militaristic Europe. but will cooperate with Pacific Europe, the more certain will be the triumph of the League of Ma tions.
 Meantime, the temporary respite given Germany by the separations commission has relieved the situation. Europe breathes again with the sus- pension of French action and the symptoms of change in the atti- tude of Premier Poincare. The hope full impression prevails that FraNce is beginning to realize that she can not proceed with her policy for the disintegration of Germany in the face of the public opinion of the world.
 The appeal to America is signifi- cant. All eyes in Europe turn in- creasingly toward America as a source of hope and help. Germany turns for one motive, France for an- other and England for a third. But all hopes are ultimately one. Europe is caught in whirlpool of passion and needs an umpire-disintereste powerful, sympathetic, to resolve It's discords.
 Hence the extraordinary interest everywhere in the visits of former Governor Cox and Colonel House. l had the privilege of dining with each before their departure. I was much impressed with the sanity of their survey of the European situation and their acute appreciation of the perils and the necessary remedies.
 There Is doubt that the main out lines for the rescue of Europe are becoming clearer. The pursuit of a settlement on the basis of repara- tions. indemnities. economic strangu- iation and military domain is futile. The path leads deeper and deeper in- to ruin. The practical dissolution of the supreme council is an admis- sion of failure along those lines. The council continued the war spirit. The League of Nations speaks for peace.

DIFFERENT WAYS TO COOK HAM

DIFFERENT WAYS TO COOK HAM From The Designer.
 The ham ought to be plump and well rounded with a smooth, thin skin. After selecting it. the next question Is how to cook it to get the most out of 1t.
 There are two methods of doing this: the thick, meaty part and the shank end. which contains more of the bone and fragments. The thic'. . part may be cooked in different ways, making a number of meals. The shank part should be boiled, and there is no end to the dishes that may be made with this boiled ham.
 The other method is toebake or boil the whole ham. Some prefer to boil 1t about two hours and then roast in the oven until tender. The best parts of the ham can be served either hot or cold, and the scraps, trimmings and parts about the shank used in various savory dishes. N
 Before baking a ham, wash 1t well with soda water or weak borax water. Soak for about 24 hours un- less the ham is small one. then 12 hours may be long enough. Place boil for at least two hours if 1t Is to be baked. It will take from four to six hours of slow simmering to boil ham until tender.
 For baking. drain 1t thoroughly and remove skin from the thick part. Cover with dough made Of flour and water, or with the bread crumbs and beaten eggs. Cracker in- stead of bread crumbs may be used. and 1t will take at least one cup of them and enough fat and beaten egg

 Of course a ham may be roasted entirely in the oven without first boiling it. some prefer this way, and if encased in a cover of dough the juices will all be retained. It will require a slow oven and several hours, allowing at least twenty or thirty minutes to the pound.

By ANDRE TARDIEU Former French High Commissioner to America


 Special Cable to The Age-Horald Copyright, 1929. by The Ago-Herald) Paris, September 9.-The oriental crisis enters a new phase. What is happening is not conclusion. It is but beginning.
 Yet it all had to happen sooner or later. For two years the allied gov- ernments have demonstrated their inability to exercise political strength and re-establish peace. The only possible solution, therefore, was by arms.
 King Constantine has lost, and his unfortunate country which sabot- aged its victory in the World war, has only itself to blame. A brother in-law of the former Kaiser Will helm, Constantine. is going to war merely conformed to family tra- dition.

View or what is transpiring in the east, European relations, which seemed sliding to catastrophe two weeks ago, have this week been somewhat consolidated, even if the basis is one of equivocation. Frances unconditional acceptance of the rep arations commissions sentence per mitted this temporary consolidation.
 Payment Extended
 Germany was refused a moratorl- um but granted a postponement of payment, which means identical1y the same thing. In other words, Germany was granted in French what she was refused in Latin.
 No gage has been furnished by Germany as to future performance; no new prospect of payment has been offered to the creditors Both the problem and the solution of 1t simply have been adjourned.
 From the French viewpoint. this marks a step backward, for all of Poincares recent speeches created the expectation that he would not consent to another adjournment. The French Parliament convenese in an- other month. It will meet in spirit of disappointment. Not that Parlia- ment wanted policy of force. which. moreover. Poincare never definitely espoused, but it is gem erally thought that if his activities were to end in the way they did he might have refrained from talk ing so much and in such trenchant tones beforehand. Also there are few persons who see why he re- fused at London what he was ,oing to accept at Paris two weeks later. rtr and futile acts unquestionably has weakened his parliamentary posi- ton.
 Canceling Debts
 Moreover, the epistolary debate be- tween Poincare and Earl Balfour has created an uneasy feeling both in London. and in Paris. Englishmen most disapprovc of Balfour's note and Frenchmen equally disapprove of Poincare's. Of course. we all agree with the premier that 1t is unjust and immoral to annul debts con- tracted among the allies in mu- tually defensive war as well as Ger many's debts arising from obliga- tions to repair the ruins caused by her aggression.
 We think lot of things about the debts, but we fail to see what's the use of Franco British polemics 50 long as America does not participate. We also regret the bitterness thus stirred up.
 The truth of the whole matter is Balfour tried to bring pressure to bear upon the United States by lean ing upon the European allies for sup port. Poincare tried to bring pres sure on England by utilizing the United States as well as the Euro pean allies. This was a dangerous and unjust game. Poincare in prac- ticing it found himself obliged to make a distinction between sums bor- rowed from the United States and from England, which, of course. was simply absurd.
 Either all of the allied debts must be annulled or all paid. There are only two possible policies. not three. and all this futile debate. loaded with irony and ill-humor, can only make a difficult situation worse.
 Altogether. this autumn will not lack interest. Decisions constantly adjourned are simply rendered hard CT. But since the beginning of the year, nothing else has been done. Some day these errors will have to be paid in full.

The woman's emotion was SO
great she could not speak, but
could only gaze and gaze at
the symbol of her native land.
"Ah," exclaimed the man;
tits many, many a year since
have seen It. Never since we
came to America, long, long
ago, have we seen that flower
until now. Would you like
it?" he asked his wife, tender

She could only nod her head,
and when the old couple left

them the flower from Scot
