GRAND| WILL SAIL
FROM U. S. TODAY
Foreign Minister Addresses
Dinner and Makes Plea
for Jailed Foe.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, November 81. Dino
Grandi's 11-day visit to America, I'M
dertaken in the hope of aligning Italy
and America in efforts toward world
peace and prosperity, ended today.
The Italian foreign minister and his
party were to sail for home aboard the
steamship Augustus at pm.
Since his arrival early last week
Signor Grand has held conversations
with President Hoover, Secretary Of
State Stimson and other high officials
OF the Government, and has been the
guest of New York, Washington, Balti-
more and Philadelphia. Both Signor
Grandi and the White House have
stated that the Washington conferences
were most satisfactory in their results.
In his most ambitious public adj
dress, delivered last night at the For
eign Policy Association dinner and
broadcast nationally, Signor Grand
made the following extemporaneous
addition to his prepared speech:
Says Italy Wants Peace.
"This day today - the American
people celebrate the Thanksgiving day.
Let us hope that next year we shall
be able to thank God for having given
the nations of the whole world peace,
better understanding and safer founda-
ton"
The Italian foreign minister spoke
earnestly, avowing Italys desire to see
the peace of Europe based upon dis
armament and arbitration. Italy is
convinced, he said that at the very
bottom" the political uneasineSS
throughout the world is due to mutual
fear and distrust arising out Of arma-
ments."
His hope that some constructive steps
might be taken toward disarmament,
he said, had been encouraged by the
attitude of the American Government
and by American public opinion.
Pleads for Foes Pardon.

Pinchot of Pennsylvania, Signor Grand

NEW YORK, November 27.-Little
Yya de Putt, Hungary'S charming con-
tribution to the cinemas of Germany,
England and America, died early today.
She was 80 years old.
A chicken bone that had lodged in
her throat November 19 was the indi-
rect cause of her death. The imme-
diate cause was pneumonia, complicat-
ing a case of blood poisoning that fol-
lowed the removal of the bone from
her throat. She died at los am. after
nearly 80 hours of unconSciouSneSS.
The picture that first turned the at
tention of America to Lya de Putt was
the German film Variety" a tragic
drama widely commended for its pho
tographic excellence and the artistry
of its performers, chiefly Miss de Putt
and Emil Jannings. 1.-The MISTRESS of
the World" and "Manon Lascaut" were
other productions in which she did
notable work.
Talkies Spelled Doom.
Although her work in the Hollywood
studios was accorded general approba-
ton, it never lived up to the promise
the petite performer had given in the
foreign-made films. The arrival Of

PARIS, November 27-Paul Pain
leve, former premier and war minister
of France, was booed by the Interna-
tional Peace Conference yesterday
when he questioned the efficacy of dis
arming as a way to peace.
After previous speakers had advo-
Gated immediate disarmament at the
opening conference meeting attended
by 1000 delegates of world peace or
CARNATIONS, the former war minister
reiterated Frances demand for security
before she would sanction substantial
arms reductions.
Ares you sure" M Painleve asked
shat disarmament alone would bring
peace? I question whether we can be-
gin to disarm without basis of Sc
curity'
He was interrupted by booS and con-
Trajectory cries of "Yesl" mol" and
"DisarmI"
M. Painleve OVERRIDE the Interrupt
ton, saying:

COURT FOES SEE
VICTORY IN SENATE
Unlimited Debate to Be In
sisted on, Under Leader
ship of Borah.

Senate foes of the World Court are
preparing to make a determined fight
to defeat ratification during the coming
session. Still without the necessary
one-third of the votes required to frus-
trate American adherence to the tri-
bunal, leaders Of the opposition group
nevertheless are confident Of success by
the time the roll is called.
Unlimited debate will be insisted
upon by the courts opponents, under
the leadership of Chairman Borah of
the Senate Foreign Relations Commit
tee. They are confident more than
enough votes are available to prevent
any limitation of debate.
While the Foreign Relations Commit
tee will take up the court issue at the
start of the session, it is unlikely that
the question will come up on the Senate
floor for a long time.
It will have to await disposition Of
the emergency economic program.
The recent decision of the World
Court against the Austro-German trade
agreement is to be used by the court
foes as their main weapon. Senator
Borah and others contend this decision
was based on political rather than legal
grounds.

CONFIDENCE VOTED
/. ON LAVAL POLICIES
Three Big MajoritieS Sustain
Premier After Chamber
Hears of U. S. Trip.
Nv the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PARIS, November 27.-The trip Of
Premier Pierre Laval to Washington
today stood stamped with the approval
of the French Chamber of Deputies
over the criticism of the opposition, by
majorities larger than the best the
government had expected.
The Chamber early this morning, on
three separate confidence votes, sus-
tanned M Laval by majorities ranging
from As to ITS. A margin OF 80 votes
was the most the government had
looked for.
Foes FIay Foreign Policies.
It was the Chambers first express
sion since the premier's detailed report
of his Washington trip. The debate
had lasted several days.
Opposition criticism included every
phase of the premier's foreign policy
including war debts, the Hoover debt
plan, disarmament and also the visit
to Chancellor Bruening at Berlin.
Throughout the gruelling fire M
Laval maintained unruff1ed courtesy
and good humor He told the Cham
Der his Washington trip had been the
best possible propaganda because il
resulted in clearing up some misunder-
standings about France in the minds
of the people of the United States.
Sees u. S. Views Changed.
"They no longer think" M. Laval
said, that France wants to dominate
other peoples. They know what Sacri-
fees we have made in behalf of dis
armament. They no longer suspect us
For they know France is thinking only
of maintaining her own security"
His government, he said, is COM
mitted to settlement of German pri-
vate debts by direct negotiations be-
tween creditors and debtors. Leon
Blum, Socialist deputy, had advocated
linking these private debts with other
matters in the inquiry which is to be
made by the World Bank for Inter
national Settlements into Germany's
capacity to pay.
Is Firm on Preparations.
There must be no cut in Germany's
Preparations unless a corresponding re-
duction is made in the war debts owed
by France, Premier Laval told the
Chamber, and France cannot permit
consideration of Germany's private OBJ
/, legations before reparations. The Depu-
ties applauded as he took this stand
THE best way to cure this economic
crisis" the premier said, lis by main
tanning confidence in the given word OF
nations and respect for signature.
II can understand GermanyS misery
but if France had been Germany'S debtor
what would they have done? think
I have right to talk like this without
hurting the feelings of the German
people"
This present economic crisis is the
result of collective neurasthenia, he
said, land thesbest way to cure 1t Is by
a solution based on the given word OF
nations and on respect for signatures.

A Sermon for Today
Need for Watchfulness.
BY REV. JOHN r. GUM.

BE We therefore sober, and watch."-
I Pet, iv.7.
If there is any one thing the Bible
emphasizes more than another as a
requisite to pure and noble life, it is
the necessity for constant watchfulness.
We cannot fan to see its Importance if
we consider what sort of world this
is and what sort of creatures we are.
In many respects this world we have
broken into is wonderful world, and
its people q wonderful people. And yet
we find ourselves in an environment
that Is great deal fuller CT induce
ments to do wrong than of inducements
to do, right. We meet many circum-
stances In which it seems far easier
to follow the worse than to follow the
better course. Besides this, we are sur
rounded with many bad things that
have a deceptive appearance of pleas
ure. And so, unless one has learned to
watch his every step he will 60 wrong
without doubt. There are more things
round about us to tempt us downward
than things to draw us upward, and
our only security Is constant watchful-
ness.
The same lesson is enforced upon us
when we consider the sort of creatures
we are Here we are In a world full of
evil, and when we look into our hearts
and heshly nature we find in ourselves
all manner of passions and desires that
respond most readily to the worlds evil
enticements. We all have in our ma
lures something that can be appealed
to by any temptation the world can
produce Let him that thinketh he
standeth take heed lest he fall" None
Of US can afford to be careless with
himself no matter how strong and Sc
cure he thinks himself to be. There
are strong passions in us all. deeply
rooted in the flesh, that must be care
fully guarded and kept under control
1t Is not only in the world that We
meet with receptions; the Bible de-
scribes the heart as being "deceitful
above all things" Therefore, keep thy
heart with all diligence"
There are more people who go wrong
from lack of watchfulneSs than from
willful intention. Indeed, 1t may be
doubted whether any man ever DELHI
erately chooses evil. 1t is by drifting
along carelessly and unguardedly that
men get into wrong paths and become
evil doors. BE We therefore sober. and
watch" Remember, as George Herbert
says:
Who keeps no guard upon himself is
slack,
And rots to nothing at the next great

Occasionally when housework has

1t Is important for the worker to be
able to accomplish things when not

constituted that it is only under the
spur of necessity that they do their best
work. Apparently they have to work
against time" Those who can plan
their own time-that is. those who are
not working under orders or during
specified hours-have the privilege of

may not, although they have at GER
