These moves by the allies seem to
have occasioned misgivings in Berlin.
During the last few days leading news
papers have been warning the public
against exaggerated hopes. The Ger
man people have been misled, says the
Vossische Zeitung. France and Great
Britain have formed, 1t says, . COM
mon front, reinforced by the United
States, which also wants, 1t thinks, Ito
crush in the egg all tentatives at re-
vision.''
Germany, the Frankfurter zeitung
thinks, Is isolated and is running the
risk of check and moral defeat. The
DeutSche Allgemeine Zeitung exclaims
hat the republic must have no illu-
sions, for treaty revision will be long
and will take years.
It is impossible the Vorwaerts as

war. It adds that Germany, dis

If it tried to, it would be breaking three

Meanwhile, however. the tendency

the surge of the German clamor for

Vile attorney, was selected presi-

At a special meeting held

the matter was deferred.
William M. Burroughs, former
chief, and Marberry Gates, felt
they should wait until spring and
save possibly $1,000 or more.
Chief Valentine Wilson said the
department should buy now.

At GETTYSBURG

CASCADE. Md, July 80.
Officers of the Fifty-eighth
Brigade staff have clipped a day
from the time required by the
Confederate and Union forces in
fighting the Battle of Gettys-
burg, they declared last night
upon their return to Camp
Ritchie after two all-day trips to
the battlefield.
The nine officers, headed by
Brig. Gen. Milton A. Rockford.
were divided into two forces,
three "Confederates" and six
Union" men. The Union forces,
as in the original battle, were
victorious.
Each officer represented a
Civil War general, and each led
his group over the terrain
covered by the man he repre-
sented, explaining the action of
the commanders. A temporary
truce was established at lunch
time so the forces could eat to-
gether.

Hoover Scans Job Situation

A demand for the lowering of
the tariff protecting any indus
try which reduces wages during
the current depression, was voiced
today by Senator Fletcher Cd,
Of Florida. while the Hoover
Administration began a study of
measures to relieve next winters
expected unemployment distress.
Unemployment Studied
The new tariff bill, said Fletch-
er, was enacted to protect Amer
1ca'S high wage levels against
cheaper foreign competition. If
wages are reduced, he added, the
necessity for the high protection
is destroyed and tariff rates
should be slashed.
The Administration meanwhile
began studying jobless relief
measures, just as the American
Federation of Labor issued
statement estimating unemploy-
ment would reach 100000 next
winter. The President conferred
yesterday with John Barton
Payne, head of the American
Red Cross, and F. c. Croxton,
acting head of the Presidents
Unemployment Commission.

ernment to interfere in such

the pleasure of companionship
between a married couple may
be heightened and sharpened
by social contact with other
people.
Both Of us feel that If either
of us should develop any I'm
usual interest in another per-
son, that fact would reveal the
death of our mutual love.
In such case, the only SEN
sible thing would be to call
quits. But certainly we an
ticipate no such eventuality.
We have known each other
long enough to realize that our
love is not so easily shaken.
If we had thought our mutual
attraction was so weak as to
be DETECTED by chance COM
radeShip with others, we should
never have married.
