Gets Expert Advice.
In the course of today's discussions
regarding the Russian question, Mr.
Henderson had a surprise for the House
informing it that the legal experts Of the
foreign Office held that diplomatic re-
lations with Russia had not been sew
cred at all.
Their view was that as recognition
had never been withdrawn diplomatic
relations had not been broken. What
was not sought by the Labor govern
ment was resumption Of normal trading
and commercial relations.
All through the debate on foreign
affairs today there was q constant In
sistence on the intention to consult the
dominionS both on signature Of the OPP
tional clause of the World Court stat
utes and on relations with Russia. On
the optional clause, signing of which
would compel placing international
legal questions before the Permanent
Court of International Justice at The
Hague. The foreign secretary remark
ed, however, that he had not said the
British government would abandon Its
position If one single dominion should
decline to sign the clause.
Salaries Discussed.
The question of salaries has begun
to worry great Britain's new Labor
parliamentarianS, and as result OF dis
cussion on the matter the country al
large Is awakening to the fact its gov
eminent heretofore has been in the
hands of wealthy men.
Prime Minister Ramsay Macdonald
announced yesterday in the Commons
he had increased the salary Of j. H
Thomas, lord privy seal, from the
$4,000 (about 10000 he drew at that
post to $1,000 (about $25, 0o0) because
of extra duties undertaken as minister
In charge Of unemployment.
There has been some discussion OF
the paucity of the salaries of the prime
minister and the chancellor Of the ex-
chequer, which are only $4,000 (about
$4,000 each, barely enough to keer
up the official residences on Downing
street.
The question has entered also into
the matter of increased labor repre-
sentation in the House Of Lords. Re-
sponsible journals not adhering to Labor
principles, suggest reform be insti-
tuted, making it possible for Mr.. Mac
Donald to create life peerages only to
increase the party's representation
there.

CLEVELAND, July 5.-The mono
plane City Of Cleveland, in which Roy
L. Mitchell and Byron K. NeWcomb are
seeking To break the refueling endurance
fight record of l72 hours 80 minutes
and / second, had been aloft 100 hours
at 1890 am. today.
A terrific storm last night brought
their refueling plane to earth wrecked
beyond further participation in the
attempt.
Early today a new refueling plane was
rut into service. SeVenty-f1ve gallons
of gasoline we're transferred as well as
oil and water.
In the first note dropped today
Mitchell and Newcomb told watchers
who stood guard below as they rode
through a night of storms, Everything
o. K. Last night was hell" Later they
sent down word that they were ready
for the refueling contact, which was
completed without mishap.
A fuselage battered from bags lowered
by the refueling plane gave the en-
durance flyers apprehension today.
Our fuselage is beaten up pretty
badly from the heavy bags and we dc
not wish to refuel any more than we
have to in the rough part OF the day, q
message said.

SO low were the clouds, that any OF
the aviators had survived the storm

/. HATS!

"Oh! look at the latest fad! Felt
hats! My dear don't tell me those
slow boys are actually taking up a
fad? Why they are! Even the dig
nified student body president mas
one"
Such remarks as the above were
heard last Thursday at the III. S..
The bows came to school with the
new shipment of hats. Sure enuf
there was Walt with his little
green bonnet and George with his
loud orange one, and so on down
the line of would be dignified SEN
Tors.
At noon the grand blow out hap
pened. The boys came to school
with these hats and were so proud
of them they all carried them to
their fourth and fifth period classes
for fear some of the teachers
would slip out and try them on.
That evening Mr.. Marsh ESQ I'm
told) had to put Odile to work to
stop the stampede of women who
likewise adopted the fad. The store
was overloaded with students who
clamered for their chance at a
hat.
This will soon be over and the
teachers, no doubt, hope it's a cold
day in August before another
storm like this hits the little. old
burr of Kennewick, for the shock
of it will be the downfall of Jim
Beste and Gas Galloway in English
history.

French sentiment" to be incorporated
In a separate resolution, but not attached
to the ratifying act, would adequately
meet the situation.
M. Poincare has very recent ex-
ample in Washington as q model for
this adroit solution of his parliamentary
dificulties. A majority OF the foreign
relations committee desired reserva-
ton to the Kellogg pact, reafhrming
Americas rights under the Monroe
Doctrine. The state Department OBJ
jected. Finally, as q way out of the
threatened impasse, 1t was agreed that
the Senate would accept O. report" from
the foreign relations committee, Inter
pret.ng" our conception Of the multi
lateral pact In it's relation to the Mon
roe Doctrine. It was so ordered and the
pact was duly ratified.
Apparently the Qusi dOrsay hopes to
bring about ratificat ton of the Mellon
Berenser agreement by resort to an
expression of French sentiment" which
will have no binding force. 1t is not
likely that the United States Congress
will shy at so innocuous . recourse.

Actual Work OH Boulder Dam
Apparently at Last in Sight

"As things look now, the power dis
possl may be simpler and easier than
was ever expected" thinks the San
Francisco Chronicle, with the added
comment: The thirst of the Southern
California coastal plain is likely to cut
the knot at q single blow. Los Angeles
with Q metropolitan water district at
its back, proposes to sign for the entire
power potential OF the dam. This, not
because Los Angeles wants the power
particularly, but because it wants We :
ter. This is q huge undertaking. but
Los Angeles, urged on by a parched
throat, has ii well under way and seems
likely to put IL over"
"A new era in this vast section is
seen by the Los Angeles Express, which
describes the enterprise as "the mighti-
est work of the kind ever undertaken
by men" and, referring 10 the visit OF
DR.. Blwood Mead, Commissioner OF
Reclamation, and Raymond r. Walter
chief engineer OF the Reclamation
Service, reports that they found in
Southern California a potential market
for the entire power to be generated
at the dam-upon the sale OF which the
Government will depend for repayment
OF the cost of construction-ln the
event that other parts OF the southwest
might take little or none"
"The Southwest in this great enter
prise" concludes the Long Beach
Press Telegram, secs guarantee OF q
great and assured future. The states
Of the CoIorad River Basin will benef1t
directly from this mammoth project
Their benefit will be more generous
than that of any other State, OF any
other portion of the country. But the
whole Nation will share In the material
advantages which are sure to come
from the building and operation OF this
great enterprise"

Right.Angle Streets
Cause Many Accidents
BY e, Z. FREE, PHI. D.

II city streets never crossed each
other at right angles but always. met in
threes, like the hub of O three-Spoked
wheel, the number of street-corner
automobile collisions would be reduced
by ct least one-half because Of that re-
duction of possible collision points"
SO asserted N. CauchOn. chairman
of the Town Planning Commission OF
Ottawa, Canada, in a recent address
before the Town Planning Institute In
London, when he explained his hex
aeonal system OF city planning in which
the city blocks look like the cells OF a
honeycomb or the stones Of mosaic
pavement instead Of like the squares
of O. checkerboard. Although the
streets of Mr.. Cauchon's plan, with the
exception of a few main avenues, are
never straight for more than one block
at a time, trafI1c would move more
rapidly around these heXagonal blocks,
ne maintains, than through city OF
the present type. This is because of
easier turns at the corners and because
the stream Of traffic would flow together
and apart again automatically at the
three-street intersections, instead of be-
ing held up for mutual crossing. The
ARRANGEMENT of the hexagonal blocks
should be such. the lecturer continued.
that no 'east-and west streets exist, as
these deprive some OF the houses of
sunlight. With the three street direc-
tons of the hexagonsl city taken as
north-south, northeast-southwest and
northwest-southeast, every house would
nave sunlight Of some hour Of the day.

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES E. TRACEWELL.

There are book collectors. old bottle
collectors, stamp collectors, antique
furniture collectors.
There are men who make collections
| or golf clubs, others who specialize in
gathering together radio sets, Others
who go in" for beetles.
! There Is no accounting for such hob
bieS, either. The man who fancies his
rare old bottles, interesting bits of glass
work, can see no earthly sense In col
Letting first editions.
Why, can get the same book which
/ he paid 500 for in q cheap edition at
! rs centS--exactly the same book, and
even better printed"
It is true, but to- the dyed in the
wool booklover the rare first edition far
transcends any number OF later editions.
Not all booklovers, OF course, are
book collectors in the real sense OF the
| term. Many O man who loves books
cares nothing for FIRST editions or rare
books OF any description.
Those who do not understand the
mysteries OF the book collecting game
may read with interest and profit Vim
cent Starrett's new work, "Pennywise
and Book Foolish"
There will be found explained, as we'll
! as 1t can be eXpounded, the reason for
such @ flne frenzy OF collection.

Perhaps the most curious collection
of which we have knowledge Ia that OF
a friend who is quietly making q round
I'D of household articles in the SEM
bIance OF cats.
Is it necessary TO say that the
gentleman is O cat fancier?
Here again human nature is various
Such men like dogs best, others cars,
still others bantam boosters.
MANY men 60 through life with
secret hankering for pigeons. which
they may have raised in their youth,
but given up with gray hairs and wis
dom ,supposedb.
It is not every dog fancier, or cat
fancier, who carries his liking fartner
than the real creatures in the mesh.
Every once in a while, however, there
crops up some place or other real
fan" one who collects dogs in NINA
ture or cats in images.
The European peoples have nsir for
small dogs of ivory and fancy metal
work. At one time returning travellers
invariably brought back with them ex-
quisitely done small dogs for mantel
ornaments.
Fine European pottery pieces show

The true collector never hurries.
There may be occasions, OF course,
when speed is the essence Of the deal.
To garner some prize before the I'M
known rival gets it is sometimes q
necessity.
AS a general rule OF procedure. how
ever, one collects. whether books,
stamps OF csts. in a leisurely manner.
Haste not only makes waste, 1t loads
one up with all manner of junk.
A collector even the most expert,
finds himself with . neat mass Of moth
ing. unless he is extremely careful. II
is easy to be imposed upon. extremely
simple to make mistakes ones self.
AS for the amateur, he above all must
