NICE SUMMER THIS WINTER

Old 1929 may have come in like
a roaring lion but he surely de-
veloped a lot of the characteristics
of the meek and lowiy 'a'nb i: the
latter part of his life, and he de-
parted Tuesday in shower of sun
shine that was typical of the wealth :r
for che past two or thee weeks.
This may be winter but if it were not
for the calendar one might think
it was March or April. There is no
snow nor any frost in the ground
and with cloudy days alternating
with the clear ones, little fog once
in awhile and light frosts in the
mornings, the weather is more like
spring than winter.
| However, the weather CALENDARS for
1880, prepared by the long distance
weather prophets, predict a rather
cold and stormy period during Janu-
airy, February and March and we
may be in for rather rough time OF
it, providing, of course, these proph-
cts have read the signs right.

AID TO PEACE SEEN
IN KELLOGG NOTE
Senator Shipstead Favors Sending
Interpretation of Monroe Doc
trine to Latin Nations.

Peace would be advanced should the
State Department send the Kellogg note
interpreting the Mnroe doctrine to all
Latin American countries, Senator
Shipstead, Farmer-Labor, Minnesota,
suggested in the Senate yesterday.
The note was prepared by Frank
B. Kellogg, former Secretary OF State.
for communication to Central and
South American countries, but has
never been transmitted.
Shipstead, during an address on the
London naval treaty diverted his re-
marks to the note.
ITO send this letter to all the Latin
American countries" he said, would be
in the interest of peace, and hope
will have the lettering effect on our
military intervention in foreign coun-
tries without the sanction Of Congress"
Prior to this the Minnesota Senator
had referred to the sending of marines
to Nicaragua and Haiti.
He said President Hoover showed a
'rlot of courage" in asking Congress
last year for a commission to go TO
Haiti in view of the Haitian policy in
the preceding Is years.
