RESERVATIONS" IN
THE <PEACE7' TREATY

France to retreat. In their latest
notes, despatched last week, they
still insist formally on their "res-
ervations," but they declare them
selves prepared to sign the Amer
lean text unaltered. They make out
as If they are under the impression
that America acknowledges their
standpoint.
Accordingly there arises the gro
tesque situation, so stigmatizing for
imperialistic hypocrisy, that they
will sign treaty, the text of which
will be interpreted" differently by
each signatory. Their differences
remain unchanged. 1t might be
asked why this scrap of paper
should be signed at all. In the first
place, to fool the workers with pa
clfist phrases. On this point all the
slgnatories are in agreement. In
the second place, each of the sigma
tories is thinking of his own special
position. Under serious circum-
stances, the United States is
strong enough to snap its fingers
at the European reservation" and
to interpret the pact in the Amer
lean sense, lie, to compel France
and England to accept a dollar
Judgment, if no other means avail.
then by means of ships guns. But
while still referring to the pact"
England and France have in the
course of the pact-negotiations ce-
mented their alliance more firmly, a
TACT which is of great Importance
for England on account of its war
plans against the Soviet Union and
its fight for power against the Uni
ted States, while for France it is of
great Importance for England on
retaining its supremacy in Europe
over Germany. Germany has made
use OF the opportunity to ingratiate
itself with America in order to ac-
quire a support in the rear against
France. None of them can refuse
to sign; such an open demonstration
against Washington would be too
risky. Therefore, they are signing,
but with reservations"
These reservations, in part tacitly
acknowledged by Washington, are
such, however, that even bourgeois
liberal newspapers are asking
whether war is now really "out-
lawed and prohibited" as the reser-
vations and exceptions can easily be
interpreted to admit of any war.
The pact has still another very
serious aspect: The Soviet Union
has been completely excluded from
the negotiations. This diplomatic
boycott alone bears witness to a
capitalist world solidarity against
the Workers State, which is re-
garded as being outside of the
''moral world" Nay, more, there
exists between American and Eng
land tacit understanding that war
against the Soviet Union is mot
outlawed." Thus the pact outlaws
not war, but the Soviet Union! Or,
as the liberal Manchester Guard
ian" expresses it, chamberlain
suggests that all members of the
League of Nations be invited to
sign the pact. Critics in Paris re-
mark that through this suggestion
the universally of the pact is
dropped. For this suggestion
means that not only Egypt and the
Monroe territories but also Russia
would be drawn into the zone in
which military operations are sane
toned"

1t is just this way: There was a
time when glove silk underaEparel
meant absolutely nothing more or less
than regulation "glove silk" sans any

SIMPLE FUNERAL SERVICE PLANNED
Last Rites for Lord Asquith
 Saturday Morning

Sutton Courtenay, England. Feb 16 R-Great Britain today contin- ued 10 pay tribute to the Earl of Oxford and Asquith as the body of the statesman. who guided the Brit ish Empire through the critical first two years of the war, lay in the parish church here.
 A simple service for the family of the former premier will be held there Saturday morning. in accord ance with the wish expressed by Lord Oxford some time ago, his fam lily announced that he would be bur fed privately and not in Westminster Abbey.
 A memorial service will be held at noon.
 Many persons in the messages of coincidence received by his widow, Margot Asquith. recalled Henry H. Asquith's declaration in the face of Germany's seemingly irresistible ad- vance.
 We shall never sheathe the sword which we have not lightly drawn until Belgium recovers in full meas ure all, and more than all, she has sacrificed: until France is adequately secured against the menace of ag- gression; until the rights of the smaller nationalities of Europe are placed upon an unassailable founda- tion. and until the military domina- ton of Prussia is wholly and finally destroyed"

BETA AND GAMMA
 RAYS BY MACHINE
Invention of New Electrical
 Apparatus Announced

New York. Feb. 16 R-The pos sibility of construction Of apparatus which will produce the beta and gamma rays of radium is held forth by Dr. w. D. Coolidge. assistant di- rector of the research laboratory of the General Electric company, in an- nouncing development of new su- perpower cathode ray tube operating on 3o0,O0o volts. The previous limit Of power had been 3Q0.000 volts.
 The announcement was made at meeting of the American Institute Of Electrical Engineers where Dr. Coolidge received the Edison medal for his contributions to incandcscent | lighting and the N-ray.
 The new tube is three-in- one | arrangement of the 300, ,O00-volt cathode ray tube. A cascade ar engagement eXpels electrons at the rate of 175,000 miles a second, which | is the fastest man-made speed ever attained. It is 300.000 times faster than the speed of bullet shot from standard army rifle.
 This opens a vista of alluring scientific possibilities. said Dr. Cool 1 idge in explaining the multi-sectional principle upon which the new tube S built" It has tantalized us for years to think that We couldn't produce in the laboratory just as high speed electrons as the highest velocity beta rays of radium and just as l penetrating radiations as the short- est wave length gamma rays from radium. According to Sir Ernest 1 Rutherford We need only a little i more than twice the voltage which We have already employed to pro- duce X-rays as penetrating as the most penetrating gamma rays from radium and about three million volts to produce as high speed beta rays"
 The 300.000-volt tube which Dr. Coolidge demonstrated in 1926 pro- duced enormous streams of high speed electrons which changed gases i into solids, caused many minerals to glow with phosphorescence for hours and made profound alterations in living cells. The experiments with the new tube have just started Chester Moore and l.. H. Dempster aided him in his development of the tube. Dr. Coolidge said.
 John J. Carty. vica-president of the American Telephone and Tele- graph company. received the John Fritz medal for achievements in telephone engineering.
