Objections Raised.

Ramsay Macdonald, David Lloyd

expressed dissatisfaction with Sir
Austen's speech, saying that it did
not contain any promise to vote
against claims of Poland Spain and
Brazil to seats, supported by France.
Italy and other powers.
The German delegates are about to
leave for Geneva. They are expect
ing fair treatment. but a feeling of
uneasiness pervades that there may
be stormy scenes over the allotment
of permanent seats.
The Belgian foreign minister. NJ.
Nandervelde, has told the Belgian
Chamber of Deputies that while dis
approving of wholesale enlargements,
he thought both Belgian and Poland
should be elected to permanent seats.
Brazil. if not given permanent
seat. will contend for the right to fill
the permanent chair held for the
United States until that country de
cides to enter the league and occupy
it. Afranio Mello Franco. head of the
Brazilian delegation. has made this

ments yesterday.
The anti-government papers are bft-
ter. as might he expected but the
moderateS also do not conceal their
disappointment. The Times regrets
that Sir Austen Chamberlain was not
more explicit on the essentials, and
points out that no clear answer was
given regarding the time and occasion
for possible increase in the perma.
nent membership of the council.
HE hinted at considerations that
he did not explain" the Times says,
'and foreshadowed possible alterna
tives that seemed to weaken the
force of the very principles he so
firmly enunCiated.
Next weeks proceedings at Geneva
will still be scrutinized with some
anxiety. 1t is not yet clear what is
going to happen"
The Daily Express declares that
the one clear fact to be deduced
from Sir Austen's elaborate cloud
of words" is that Spain will be
made permanent member of the
council next Monday"

Advantages of Steel Girder.

The city heads held that the new
structure should be steel -G1rder
bridge rather than an arch bridge, be
cause foundation conditions are such
that the cost of an arch would greatly
exceed that of steel -girder bridge.
and the latter type Of structure would
facilitate construction of the park
boulevard underneath its span. The
treatment of the steel girder surfaces
also, the Commissioners said, would
give an improved appearance over the
usual steel l-girder structure and would
harmonic with the Pennsylvania Ave
nue. Bridge.
Provision is made in the bill au
thorizing the bridge construction for
consulate ton with the Commission of
Fine Arts as to it's architectural de-
sign and approaches.
Examination of the old bridge last
Spring showed that the floor beams
and cover plates of the top chords Of
the middle trvsseS had corroded and
that the condition of the west abut
ment was such as to imperil the safety
of the structure. The bridge was then
closed to vehicular traffic.
Evening star., 1926-03-05

without designing and rebuilding the
bridge, as one of the abutments
would have to be moved to provide
for the boulevard. For this reason
the Commissioners urged construction
of a new bridge rather than repairing
the old structure al a cost of about
SIS 900. The old bridge was built in
1871. @t.H s.
The Commissioners said NJ street
is a very important fire run, being
one of the main cross-town thorough
fares and a main traffic artery to
Georgetown, to the Chain and Key
Bridges and to Virginia. Westbound
traffic on NJ street is now being di-
verted to the Pennsylvania Avenue
Bridge, via Twenty sixth street.

CHAMBERLAIN TO BE FREE.

LONDON, March LP.-Sir Austen
Chamberlain. secretary for foreign

he goes to Geneva for the meeting
next Monday of the League of Ma
tions. before which is to be threshed
out the question of new permanent

1t is. however, the announced pur-
pose of Sir Austen to do nothing

plication for which she made some
time ago as an outgrowth of promises
made when the Locarno pacts were
being formulated. Germany opposes
admission of new members other than

James Gleason has been as kindly
received by the London critics as
any American actor who has visited
England in a decade. His appear
ance in "Is Eat So?" of which he is
also co-author, has been generally
hearlded in the London papers as
the greatest laugh America has given
London since Potash and Perfmut-
ter struck England.
The critics acclaim Gleason, in the
role of the prizefight promoter, and
Armstrong, as the lightweight fght-
er, as one of the funniest teams Lon

of the British public to understand
the New York slang and follow the

with him forever, Jeanne. l didn't
dream you would see him.
"Why shouldn't l see him?" jeanne
demanded proudly. Il am not afraid
Of him. He has no hypnotic influence
over me-
But, you were so disguised with
him-with yourself-with the sftua-
ton into which you had drifted,"
stammered. "And when you were
caught in that blizzard last winter
and realized he had frozen his hands
taking care of you, you were terri
fled over what he might think you
owed him"
And he was terrified for fear I'd
insist on gesturing nobly and hanging
on" Jeanne said, laughing heartily as
she got up and paced about the Pc
truzzi apartment with n nervous en-
ergy which reminded me Of jim. You
got us out of any mess into which
our silly filtration plus a lot OF silller
sentimentality might have driven us.
I'm really much obliged"

Jeanne didn't appear to notice. l
/ suppose, for the moment, she, like me,
was lost in her own thoughts. Then
she began to put them into broken,
detached words.
81 left Pat once because he was a
man, not a puppet, whose strings l
could pull. He brought us back dra-
matically. 1 wasn't cured. l said I'd
leave him if he hurt me again. Baby

He flirted with Brooke. He didn't

what has your understanding Pat
got to do with this terrible thing that
has come up between Jim and nle?"
But 1 couldn't, Jeanie's sincerity
was impressing me, and she was inter
esting me almost in spite of myself.
SO l said nothing and waited for her
to go on. At last she said slowly and
carefully, and without a trace of the
impatient arrogance that used to tinge
all Jeanne said:

applied my knowledge to life. l saw
the flaming, gorgeous romance that
comes with the beginning of marriage
can't last. l accepted that"
II don't" / protested.
"YOu must accept it. It's so. Mar
ricd people might go on being lovers If
they did it through learning to be
friends. l began to see that if Pat
wasn't feeling wildly romantic over
me any more, he might get little in
terest out of some new woman, and
that if he could come and talk it over
with me. it might never get to be the
flaming thing our romance once was.
But forbidden fruit!"
Jeanie flung up her hands in a lit
tie gesture of amusement and horror.
