have an attendance OF 800 before the
contest closes, and we don't know if
we can keep up, or not. But we are
going to do our best. Please come on
time next Sunday. The offering goes
into the Building Fund.
The start of our canvass last Sun
day about equailed the results of two
years ago, but is still far short of
the results last year. However, we
hope to double our number of
pledges in the next week or two, and
it is even likely that we may exceed
the totals of last year. A lot of big
hearted people, kind and charitable
to one another, doing their best, can
accomplish great things.

honor Of suspicion. .
The general manager said 1t was not
inferred from the suicide that Bay
either had the Dodge account photo

that since Bay was o man with high
pride In his work, and since suspicion
naturally would be directed against him
as chief Of the bookkeeping department,
he felt dishonored.

PLACE IN AVIATION.
Figures of A. A. A. Show

Figures which show that the District

on the aviation map Of the country have
been compiled by the air travel division
Of the American Automobile Association,
with the aid Of the aeronautics branch
Of the Department Of Commerce, were
announced today by Theodore p. Moves,
the District of Columbia division Of the

In the promotion Of air travel" ne said,
"and shows beyond doubt that the Dis
trict Of Columbia is on the air map Of
the Nation"
travel division was formed less than q
year ago to promote aviation in line
with the program Of service in all
phases Of travel.
1.-THE aeroplane has become an i'm
portant factor in providing quick trans
portation," he continued. "As a result
there are no longer isolated spots In
the country and travel time that was
formerly figured In days Is now counted
in hours.
"In the last six months Of 1929 there
was an increase In the number Of miles
flown for each accident In civil aero
nautics. There were o total Of 1890
161 miles flown by civil aircraft during
the above period in air transport and
miscellaneous operations, an increase Of
about 100000 miles over the same
period in 1928.
I'm scheduled air transport operations
shows there were 1894, 161 miles flown,
and as there were IS fatal accidents, the
mileage flown for each fatal accident
was therefore 1,062,677."

FRANCE REJECTS
BRITISH MEDIATION
French Willing to Resume Ne
gotiations Only Through
Regular Channels.
By Radio to The Star and CHICAGO Daily
News. Copyright, 1880.

" News. copyrisht. 1850. ~
PARIS, France, May 19.-I learn
that France has rejected the italian
and British proposals made by Foreign
Ministers Arthur Henderson and Dino
Grand to Aristide BRAND at Geneva
for immediate resumption Of the Fran
co-Italian negotiations under British
auspices and in a special experts COM
mission.
France is willing to resume the COIL
versations, but only through the usual
diplomatic channels. and will discuss
the naval question only after the politi-
cal questions have been decided. The
reason for this is that France feels
that the naval dispute can be settled
only when the fate of the political
issues is known.
Mussolini Speech Criticized.
Furthermore, France, while courte-
ously acknowledging Great Britain's
efforts at mediation, sees no reason why
Great Britain should take part until
the actual naval stage Of the converse
tons is reached, which, it Is feared,
may be long time hence.
There seems to be q widespread feel
ing here that Great Britain Is not the
ideal mediator In the present dispute
because of the well known special
friendliness of Great Britain for Italy
in all Mediterranean questions.
There is still another OBSTACLE In the
To n vRv&kf A~a
Of negotiations with Italy. It q be-
lieved here that Premier Mussolints
recent new naval program, his sudden
Irritation with the new German Ma.
tionalist government and, above all, his
allegedly bellicose speeches Of the last
10 days are an attempt, following the
rupture of the Franco-British entente
and the partial breakdown Of the Lon
don Naval Conference, to tnttmidate
France.
All the French newspapers reproduce
Mussolini's speech at Florence Satur.
day, especially the passage about Italy's
iron will to build ships, and this
passage: Words are fine things, but
rifles, machine guns, ships, airplanes,
cannon, are finer; for right unaccom-
panied by might Is vain word, and 1t
was Niccolo Machiavelli, the Florentine,
who warned US that 1t Is the unarmed
propneLS, VINO perish.
France Oversubscribes Bank stock.
This speech, it is pointed out, was de-
livered at almost the same moment the
French government was issuing M.
Brands plan for q European federation,
deciding the immediate dissolution Of
the reparations commission, establish
ment Of the Young plan and complete
evacuation of the Rhineland by June 30.
The world, say the French, can draw It's
conclusions.
It Is further remarked that Premier
Andre Tardieu's speech before the war
veterans yesterday carefully avoided any
polemics with Mussolini. However, there
is undoubted determination here not to
be ''bullied" by what Is called italian
saber rafting"
1t is an interesting detail that Frances
portion Of the shares In the new Bank
for International Settlements, which
are about to be issued to the public
here, Is already oversubscribed some
thing like 800 times.
