Opposition Worries

What Diaz has now requested
for Nicaragua is understood to be
combination Of both these treaties.
That he will get it is regarded here
as a foregone conclusion. A mere
hint that such a request would not
be granted would have operated
to prevent Diaz from ever making
It. according to those familiar with
the workings of diplomacy south Of
the Rio Grande.
The attitude Of the Senate, where
opposition to the Administration
Nicaraguan policy is strong. and
the psychological effect OF such d
treaty upon the other States Of
South and Central America, are
factors which are worrying Ad-
ministration officials exceedingly.
Latin-America has always re.
garded with suspicion the steady
encroachment of North American
domination of the little countries
to the south.

 Seven years of Republican rule has left most of the major prob lems of Government unsolved, Representative John J. Boylan, Democrat of New York, today told those attending the Democratic State Conference here.
 Representative Boylan said: 'tCoolidge's economy has been paper economy. an unwise cur tailment of Government activi- ties which will result within a few years in larger appropria- lions to make up for the failure of the Coolidge regime.
 Our Republican friends will answer that President Coolidge has reduced the National debt and also cut taxes, but let me re- mind you that in two years be fore Woodrow wilson left the White House, even though the war was a few years off, the National debt had been cut by S2.000, 900, ,000"
 Representative Boylan declared that Wisconsin with it's "rorward looking progressive spirit should have President to it's liking in Gov. Al. Smith.

 It's No Use

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Oct. 29--- John Griffen, automobile mechan. ic. on trial for violating Indiana's 5 stringent liquor law, declared that whisky in his possession was for the use of twelve year old daughter. who was ill., and ha pleaded that his offense was no greater than that of Governor Jackson, and Attorney General Gilliom. who have recently admit ted they obtained whiskey for medicinal use of members of theis families.
 Griffen's plea was unavailing. Judge Dan V. White found him guilty but suspended a jail sen. tence of thirty days and fine of $100 and required the mechan. ic to pay only $3O court costs.
 Understand" said Judge White. "this Ia not punishment for trying to help your child. but you have violated the law. and it is the law. no matter what others think about it."
 The Wright ''b0ne dry" statute makes It unlawful for any person to purchase or possess whiskey. Griffen told the court he had procured the liquor for his daughter who had been i'll for two years and that seyera! physicians had recommended whisky.

LEVINE'S ADVENTURES IN EUROPE
 RIVAL ATLANTIC HOP IN INTEREST

NEW YORK, Oct. 29--Charles A. Levine's place among the first three New York-to-Europe flyers and his possession with Clarence Chamberlin, his pilot in the Co lumbia, of the world nonstop flight record have been all but overshadowed by his experiences in the four months between his landing at Kottbus. Germany. in mid June, and his start for home Oct. II on the Leviathan.
 Three pilots shared in his ven lures. and although he pretended to no more than layman's knowledge of a plane, he took the stick of the Columbia himself to fly alone from Paris to London after a disagreement with his French pilot.
 None O. his subsequent flights were more notable or picturesque than that which began when he stepped, bareheaded, into the Co., lumbia with Chamberlin on the morning of her takeoff from Roosevelt Field, l.. l., and set out unannounced for Europe. But en- suing journeys took him to nine European nations and whetted a zest for aviation which will take him back to Europe next summer, he promises. to attempt flights he was unable to make this year.
 After. Chamberlin's return tu the United States, Levine en- gagged Maurice Drouhin, French aviator. as his pilot and announc. ed that a return flight would be attempted to ,the United States. Weather was unfavorable, differ ences of opinion developed be- tween the two, and the French criticize Levine for engaging as his partner an airman who had completed early preparations for an American flight of his own in French plane.
 Finally Levine took the helm of his ship at Le Bourget Field, Paris. and Jumped alone to Lon don without mishap in his first effort at piloting plane.
