ANSWER TO YESTERDAYS PUZZLE.

try especially to keep abreast of the
trend of modern literature; memoirs,
too, have always attracted me-"
One of the modern trends in which
Chancellor Mueller takes particular in
terest is the youth movement. He feels
that the generation now growing to
manhood and womanhood, almost more
than any previous one, is imbued with
desire to work out its problems in
dependently. This desire for Self-ex-
preston must be understood by parents,
he believes, otherwise they will lose
contact with their children. Too many
parents still believe in merely lording it
over their offspring instead of striving
TO be their companions and best friends.
They don't seem to realize the craving
of the children for an individual life
nodded by themselves.
For my part" he said, II have always
followed the youth movement with in
terest and sympathy. AS far back as
1908 l helped, together with the late
President Ebert and the head of the
German trade unions, the late Carl
nile house everywhere for young people
who, by travelling over historic ground
wish to learn to know their fatherland."
One fond hope Of the chancellor is
that some day he may be able to visit
his brothers in America. Two Of them
are on the other side Of the big pond, "
he said. Both are engaged in COM
mercial pursuits in New York City but
live In the suburbs, one in New Jersey,
the other in Brooklyn"

to take the reputation Of the growers

land, a Swedish colony which now num-
bers 800 villagers and farmers of Gam
malsvensky IN the government of
Cherson, Southern Russia, has appealed
to the Stockholm government to be
brought back to Sweden.
Their story is that of a commu-

dreaming of their homeland, and for
generation after generation rigidly
maintaining their native schools. lam
guage, customs and religion. Their an
cestOrs left Swedish shores about 1870,
and for 100 years were settled on the

Russia ordered them to the Ukrainian
steppes near the falls of the River
Dneiper. CosSackS escorted them on
that forced march. Their caravans.

Western plains of America in the days

The journey took nine months and
more than half the colonistS died on
the way In 1892 the group numbered
only 200 persons, according to the
cherished church record of the Swedish
vicar.
When forefathers of the group left

The liberties they had enjoyed under

MUELLER LIKES NOVELS AND ART.

German Chancellor Devotes Most of Time
to Work-Proved Courage by Sign
ing Versailles Pact.

fasting with his wife and two daughters,
rapidly glanceS through the morning
papers, then appears at his desk In the
chancellery. where, promptly at Q am,
matters requiring his immediate and
personal attention are laid before him.
From that time, with a short break for
lunch, the entire day Is devoted to
work.
Aside from literature. art is the only
other of the muses. to which Herr
Mueller is particularly devoted.
Il am not at all musical" he frankly
admits. This, of course, liberates just
so much time which other men in pub
lie life use for attending concerts or
opera. I also do not 60 to the theater
often. There was a time when ! went
quite regularly, that was when. up to
1906 was on the editorial staff Of the
Goeblitzer Volkszeitungi.
Approves Of Sports.
The modern emphasis on sports is
heartily approved by Chancellor Mueller,
though he has never been identified
with athletics. IF I had to live my
life over again." he said, I'D certainly
go in for athletics, especially for the
kind sponsored by the Workers Athletic
Union This movement of the organized
workers believes in sports for the sake
of sport and health. Records and star
performances are quite an incidental
matter. I fear some of the bourgeois
athletic organizations are too much
imbued with the idea of sports for the
sake OF victory and of world records"
When Parliament is In session, Chan
cellor Mueller has very little time to
himself. Even his afternoons are COM
pletely taken up with sessions Of the
Reichstag or of its numerous COM
mittees. His long experience in parlia-
mentary and Socialist party life stands
him in good stead. Herr Mueller has
been identified with politics since his
seventeenth year.
In a state like Germany 1t is essen
tial that a middle road be found for
cooperative effort of labor and capital"
he told the correspondent. THE
economic structure of postwar Ger
many demands It, Germany Is in
trinsically state of wage earners. The
employers must, somehow, make their
peace with this army of labor. Both
sides must acquire the spirit of give

He brought to Berlin a quiet, quaint
humor that crops up again and again
as he tells stories. He loves to sit down
of an evening with group of kindred
minds to swap stories and experiences
as he smokes light cigar. His listen
ers find him full of ANECDOTES, espe-
cially from political life. He uses Ger
man almost exclusively, for. though he
reads both French and English, he has
all his life been too busy to acquire
f1uency in speaking foreign languages.
Likes Novels and Memoirs.
If at all possible, Chancellor Mueller
tries to reserve two nights a week to
F.. himself. On such evenings, sitting
amidst his family, his fayorite pastime
is that OF reading novels or memoirs.

knowledge of the worlds best story

BERLIN, March 23.-Chancellor Her.
mann Mueller is miserable dancer;
possibly. he himself agrees, the worst
in all the Germany whose destinies he
now guides as head of the government.
But, just as his most intimate friends
will not attempt to defend the chan
cellors terpischorean technique, his
most confirmed enemies attest his poll
teal and personal courage.
And both his friends and enemies
agree this outstanding attribute Is of
prime Importance these days when the
chancellor is directing German destiny
in the Paris Preparations Conference,
the World Court negotiations at Geneva
and in a dozen other fields.
That Herr Mueller will not shirk re-
sponsibility was dramatically displayed
ii years ago when he fixed his sig
nature to the treaty of Versailles; that
he has the courage of his convictions
to an exceptional degree was proven
during the League of Nations Assembly
in October, 1923, when, without resort
ing to the subtlties of diplomatic phras-
ing, he championed the cause of
"minorities" under League jurisdiction.
1t brought an explosion from spokes-
men for nations whose toes had been
trampled, but it confirmed completely
Herr Mueller's reputation for intre-
pidity.
Laid to Lack of Opportunity.
| His ignorance not only of the COL
| legiate, fox trot and such newer ball
room steps, but even of the older
favorites, is ascribed by the chancellor
to lack of opportunity.
When I was young, was too serious
/ to dance" he confesses, and now
| haven't time"
Solidity is his chief physical charac-
| teristic. Enormous capacity for work
| he ascribes to his excellent nerves.
So conscientious is Chancellor Mueller
about his duties that when, on assum-
ing office, friend congratulated him
upon being able to stroll about in the
wonderful, mark-like garden of the
chancellor's palace, he replied, rather
surprised, But when?"

the League Of Nations-or similar au-
thority-decrees the outlawry OF some
aggressive nation for a breach of
covenant of peace. But that will not
be a private war; and no civilized trad
ing nation will be able to obstruct such
protective and disciplinary action. That
would be police action and not war ac-
ton as we have known it hitherto.
The way, therefore, is open for a
complete understanding between Great
Britain and the United States and for
the ending of claims which have in
volved the two nations in the only wars
they have ever fought against each
other.
Such an agreement would also be the
last nail in the coffin of the old order
of military rule, and would begin the
new order of peace and good will.

LENINGRAD DEFEATS
BREAD SPECTATORS
Municipal Council Distributes.
Books for Standard Priced -
Loaf.

LENINGRAD tPl.-In an effort To-.
fight speculation in bread, the Lenin-
grad Municipal Council has introduced
a new system of distributing the STAN
of life to the local population. -
All workers and employees are sup
piled through house committees with
bread books. These give the holders the
right to purchase in any bakery in the
city enough loaves to meet the daily
requirements of the family. The bread
is sold at standard price fixed by the
trade department.
Traders, clergymen and all others
claSsed as non-toilers, and who are,
therefore, not i'll possession Of such
bread books, must pay higher prices for
their bread.
The new system has already yielded
results, in that about 200 tons Of 30
called speculation bread Is being
saved daily. The bread books make.
speculation and resale of bread ex-.
tremely difficult.

A document of agreement should be
negotiated, and it ought to begin with
a declaration that the signing of the
pact has put an end forever to this
yexed question, and that belligerent and
neutral rights as the subject Of inter-
national dispute have been swept away
by the pact.

Of forgings makes for unusual safety.
Another safety factor worth noting is
the manner in which the new Ford holds

economy, speed, acceleration, beauty
these are the features that make the new
Ford such good value. Of all, there Is
none more important than SAFETY.
The safety of the new Ford comes not
only from its efficient brakes, but from
many other factors. Among these are
ease of steering and control, the Triplex
shatter-proof glass windshield, and the
sturdy, balanced construction of the car.
This includes the enduring quality of
mechanical parts as well as the structural
strength of the body.
A particularly interesting feature of the
Ford car is the manner in which electric
welding has been carried forward 60 new

opment of hundreds of special machines.
Electric 1'elling gioes simplicity
and strength
This very important and increasingly valu-
able tool Of modern manufacturing makes
it possible to use one-piece units instead
Of several parts riveted or boIted to-
gether. with resulting gain in strength
and simplicity,
Electric welding also permits the use of
steel forgings instead of castings or stamp
ings, without increase in weight or greatly
increased cost.

ESQ ARE CALLED TO
RESIGN BY PRESIDENT

Only Honest and Jealous" Men to
Be Retained, Says Hoover.
By Times Speciat
WASHINGTON, March 12.-Presi-
dent Herbert Hoover meant what
he said when he announced that
only "honest and jealous" public
servants will keep their posts in his
administration.
The President has called for ap-
proXimately $50 designations from
assistant secretaries, bureau chiefs
and presidential appointees in key
positions in Washington and through
out the country. Ordinarily the res
ignations of these officials are placed
in the hands of the President at
the beginning Of an administration,
as matter of routine.
Because Hoover succeeded a Re-
publican President, there was con-
fusion in the minds of some officials
and they did not comply with the
fornality.
President Hoover, so his hands
will not be tied and in order to re-
move certain Office holders, called
for submission of designations. Most
of them will not be accepted, but
many will.

BEGIN WORK ON
BOULDER DAM
Utah and California Ratify
Pact: Arizona Holds Out.

By Times Special
WASHINGTON, March 12.-The
federal government has begun pre-
liminary work on construction of
Boulder Dam following ratification
of the Colorado river compact this
week by the states of Utah and
California.
With these two states in the COM
pact, the Swing Johnson bill pro-
viding for construction of the dam is
certain to become effective on June
81. If Arizona should ratify the
compact before then the act would
become effective at once.
Operation of the act was delayed
six months after passage In order to
give Arizona a chance to ratify, but
50 far she has failed to do so, and
has, instead, taken steps looking to-
ward testing the constitutionality of
the act in the courts.
Reclamation Commissioner Elwood
Mead has left for Denver to talk
with engineers about plans for the
great construction job, and Rep
resentative Phil Swing has conferred
with Secretary of Interior Ray L.
Wilbur, regarding further steps to be
taken by the government,
