London. Nov. F TPJ-Formor Kaiser Wilhelm Of Germany IS not especially impressed lv inc frae- dom Of the scas doctrine suggest ed Armistce Day bv President Hoover. He considers that f. offers nothing which has not already haaN covered in previous declarations Of past years
 Reply from Spokesman
 The nited Press sought q state maut from the former kaiser from his residence at Doorn Holland. The following reply was received from Baron Sell. tha former Lajscr's spokesman
 "On consideration of principle, his majesty denuuas 10 nommir hjm- self on thss question an.nh already hss been dealt With in 'he dcclara- ton oc London"
 The reference was tha agreement proyisionauy ratified br inc JAitcd States. En5larl Germany. France, Spain. Italy. EHsz.a. Austria Hum EarE and Holland in London in Fcb- ruary 1909.
 II was recalled that thIa aGrcc- ment, known as the 'Doclaration Of of London' regulated especially the questions Of contraband. blockade and sinking Of neutral prizes and inc transfer oF entry ships to uou- tral flags, Opposition iu England at that time WIS so strong that the entire matter vas postponed. It was followed. however, in 1915. by Brit jsh measures which in some quar- t"rs were believed fO be violations Of tho "DecIaration Of London"
 Points to Gcrmanys Case
 The former German emperor ap- rarontly wishes 10 indicate that. aI- though the powers decided on the rights Of tho uoItrals before the World war, England. during the war. made q complete revolution of accepted blockade principles when she started commercial and cco- homie pressure on the central pow CTS by cutting off their food supply through Holland and the Scandina- yian countries. BrItains move vas said 10 have been strengthened by decisions in the American civil war when the fcderals allcGodly stopped goods consigned 10 Mexico which were intended for the confedoratcs.
 On this principle the allies stop ped all vessels from Scandinavia and Holland and seized such cargocs as were shown to be Of enemy origin or destination and all shippers were required 10 have British certificates Of origin, an action which was said 10 violate the "Declaration Of Lon don"

REV. P. E. BAUER ADDRESSES
 HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS

In an address before the Douglas high school students yesterday af- ternoon, Rev P. E. Bauer of the Congregational church, described three methods of mental growth Food, exercise and air are not only necessary to physical growth but also to intellectual development, he said,
 Books are intellectual food" said MT. Bauer. "'Fobd for. intellect is thought. Schools furnish an in tellectual atmosphere.
 MT. Bauer said that some movies provide food for thought while oth- CTS are sentimental mush."
 If you want to learn good Eng fish, associate with the people who use it," was MT. Bauer's sugges- tion, One cannot learn in the wrong kind of atmosphere. The brain, like the body, only grows by exercise and food"
 While the chaplain of oregon penitentiary, MT. Bauer discovered that nine tenths of the delinquent boys came from broken homes. The chief contributing cause for their crimes was bad company.
 In conclusion MT. Bauer affirmed that we grow in spiritual quali- ties of hope, faith and love, by food, air and exercise"

 She dropped the receiver. Then strengthening herself, she listened mechanically. It seemed the sound of jazz completely filled the room
 Suddenly she felt she must ge' away from it. She ran breathless- ly out of the apartment and mo- ment later she found herself in the wide entrance hall demanding z taxi. The porter whistled for one and when it arrived she gave thu driver Cora Jones address
 The cab rattled on down the ave- nue while outside the wind howled She had passed almost into state of coma when suddenly she leaned forward, fear in her eyes. For she fancied she had heard faintly tho vail of saxophone.
 Ray took off his mask and wiped his forehead. It was a golden mask, designed especially for the Golden Symphony Eight, the jazz band of the Golden Dollar club, latest and smartest of New York's night clubs.
