j. S DEMANDS
CHINA LIVE
UP TO PACT
Insists That Government
Give Protection to All
Foreigners

Swampscott. Mass, July 13.-lR-
Insistence that China live up to its
treaty obligations and protect the
lives of foreigners was announced
Sunday as the keystone of the policy
Of the American government toward
that nation.
Secretary Kellogg outlined the at
titude of the administration after a
weekend confer renee here with Presi-
dent Coolidge, centering chiefly on
the Chinese situation.
He insisted also that there must
be "scrupulous observance Of the
obligations to China entered into at
the Washington conference"
Action Deemed Necessary
Formulation of definite policy
was deemed necessary by the presi-
dent and secretary of state in view
of recent disorders there jeopardiz-
ing the lives and property of Amer
leans and nationals of other coun-
tries and on account of the compli
cation of ratification of Washing
tons treaties dealing with Chinese
customs and extra territorial rights.
Foreign debts. settlement of which
was said to be progressing satisfac-
torily, also came up for consideration
at the conference in which under
Secretary Grew participated. Mr..
Grew accompanied Secretary Kellogg
on the latter's return last night to
Washington where the state depart
ment head will resume his duties aft
er an interrupted vacation he was
spending in st. Paul, Mimi. On leav-
ing the summer White House Mr..
Kellogg gave out this statement:
I'VE have been engaged in a con-
ference with the President with ref
erence to the situation in China. the
foreign debt question and some de-
partmental matters.
Debt Question Unchanged
"The conference in relation to
China had reference to matters of
policy. The corner stone of that
policy. so far IS this government is
concerned. may be said to be a
scrupulous observance of the obli-
cations to China entered into at the
Washington conference and the in.
sistence that the government OF
China take adequate measures for
the protection of foreigners and to
carry out her responsibilities under
the treaties.
"There is nothing new in the debt
question. We were discussing the
general situation. Settlement was
progressing satisfactorily"

Build House Right
and Avoid Trouble

Building a home is one of the most
fascinating and companionable enter
prises in life; and yet because of it's
newness and perhaps unfamiliarity, it
is a matter upon which one is quite
likely to make mistakes in judgment
which prevent the full enjoyment of
the home after its completion.
1t helps, at this time, when informa-
ton Of q technical nature is literally
thrust upon you, to keep in mind the
real vital reasons for home building.

Steel Bridging Does
AWAY With Wood Type

In line with the modern trend toward
speed and security in building methods
is an innovation in the form Of steel
bridging designed to supplant the old
fashioned wooden cross-bridging.
It does away with the cutting and
fitting necessary with wooden bridg-
ing, makes a neater and more perma-
nent job, and enables the latter to be
done in a fraction Of the time and
with half the number of nails.
Only two steps are required in using
this steel bridging; twist spreads it
apart in the form Of an X, and it is
then fastened to the joists by means Of
four nails.
The bridging is made Of heavy steel
in a single piece, Hanged, ribbed and
painted. 1t has the added advantage
of always remaining tight, since steel
cannot warp, shrink or split. Another
advantage that 1t possesses over wood
Is that 1t leaves more space between
joists for pipes, etc.

Rose Trellis

An alluring little rose trellis is a
fascinating adjunct to any country or
suburban home.
Even the amateur carpenter can cas-
lily construct one, since it Is little more
than an arch over seat. The arch
is made of latticework. so that the
climbing vine may find hold for it's
tendrills. A back Of open woodwork
for the seat is in keeping with the airy
nature Of the trellis.

The front entrance opens directly

rooms extending clear across the front.
Both rooms are we'll lighted with large
windows on two sides. Just back Of
these rooms is a hall extending the

By WILLIAM A. RADFORD

Mr.. William A. Radford will answer
questions and give advice FREE OF
COST on all problems pertaining to the
subject of building, for the readers of
this paper On account of his wide
experience as editor, author and man
ufacturer, he is, without doubt, the
highest authority on the subject. Ad
dress all inquiries to William A. Rad
ford, No. 1927 Prairie avenue, Chicago,
Ill, and only inclose two-cent stamp
for reply.
Did you ever, when passing along
the streets of town or down a
country road, notice how some of the
houses give one the feeling Of being
wooden boxes set down on the ground
just anywhere and entirely unattached
and unrelated to their surroundings,
and how other houses seem to have al
most grown in the spot where they
stand, fitting 1t perfectly as no other
would fit it?
Right here Is the second principle
Of planning the new house. 1t should
be designed to fit its site. If this Is
community and a permanent satifac-
ion to it's owner, as well as first
lass investment.
The first principle is more likely to
eceive attention because it's necessity
S more clearly defined in the mind
If the layman and its need more i'm
nediately apparent. This principle is
that of fitting the house to the family
which is to occupy it, considering not
only the present but also the future
requirements.
Because Of it's low, squat lines a
bungalow is we'll suited to somewhat
elevated site and q terrace, such as
the one on which the house illustrated
here is set, is good substitute where
sufficient natural elevation Is lacking.
The effect of the steps leading to the
terrace, succeeded by others, leading
up on equal distance to the porch, Is
