A doubleton really bears two gifts
you are sure not to lose more than two
tricks in that suit, and also you have
q re-entry on the third round OF that

shorten that opponents trumps by

two of your own trumps to extract that
same trump from his hand.
Your Second Re-enty.
Your second re-entry should be a

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2O.-The st.
Lawrence treaty definitely is "on
the shelf" until after March 4.
Senator Borah intends to press
for action by the senate foreign re-
lations committee, hoping thereby
to avoid hearings later, and pave
the way for a vote in the senate
when Democratic leadership decides
it is ready for a showdown" on
ratification.
After a conference at Hyde Park
several days ago, Senator Thomas
Walsh Dem, Month, returned to
Washington and told his colleagues:
Il believe Governor Roosevelt
favorS ratification of the treaty, but
prefers that action be delayed until
he enters the White House so that
the credit can go to his adminiStra-

Democratic senators thereupon
served notice on Republican pro-
ponents of the treaty that they
must let the question of ratification
"go over until after the fourth of

The war ended, President
Wilson in Paris objected to
the INFLAMMATION of Dali
malta, and, UNFOLDING his
policy of the self-determina-
ton Of nationality, gave the
Dalmatians the right to
choose to become part OF
Yugo-Slavia.
The Yugo-Slav government main
tains it has neither fear nor hatred
for Italy, that it is ready to dlsarm
as soon as the other nations dis
arm. but so long as Italy has its
ewes on Yugo-Slav territory they
must maintain armament.
ITALY robbed us of Fiume," the
Yupo- Slavs say. Now, as they can
not get Dalmatia, they wish to
colonize along the Danubian valley
in other words to send emigrants
into our territory, who will eventu-
ally annex that territory and make
it Italian soil"
Finest of Equipment
I saw a short time ago a review
before King Alexander Of the new
Yugo-Slav army 10000 strong. No
finer fighting force exists in Europe
today. They marched with the pre-
cision of The old Prussian guards.
And they have the finest of war
equipment.
An army of 116 900 is very large
for a country of only 10000 900
people, but King Alexander, who
rules his country as virtual die
tator, feels chat this is no more
than necessary to insure protection
in the present state of Europe.
italy has 100000 men under arms
and could put 100000 men into
action in a very short time.
Having come from Italy to Bel
grade, I had ample opportun-
ity to hear the Italian point of
view exposed.
Bitter Over War Spells
"Italy has been bitter since the
division of the war spoilS,' 1 was
told by friends of MuSSolini, the
Italian premier.
1--WE feel we we're double-crossed.
Not only did we not get Dalmatia,
which had been promised us, but we
are unable to get an extra acre of
land in North Africa in which to
colonize. With a vastly growing
population and the ever-increasing
necessity of colonial expansion, we
find ourselves hemmed in"
Italy therefore has switched her
Sympathies with the former allies
to Germany, believing that by CO.
operation she can drive the best
bargain in future political develop
mentS.
Yugo-Slavia views with alarm the
possibility of an Italo-German Dan
ubian confederation scheme, which
would be a dagger at the throat of
Yugo-Slavian national life.
Italy, too, has made overtureS to
King Zogu. the Albanian ruler, aim
ing at pact which would give Italy
control of the entry to the Adriatic
sea.
Chain of Armed Nations
These are the varied conflicting
national aspirations which the dis
armament conference must con-
slider before any accord on reduc-
ton of ornaments is possible.
The apologiSts for the league ask
for patience, maintaining that slow
and effective progress is better than
speedy, unenduring decisions.
The critics maintain that the

time, and that Europe never will

Is Wrong.

Uncle Sam may balance his budget,

OF Is cents to one Woman-that Is, II
she's got anything to do with it.
Last December, the individual In
question, clerk receiving 81, 400 in
the Veterans Administration, filed claim
for 16 cents, which she averred was an
over-deduction from her pay under the
legislative furlough provision Of the
economy act.
AS she explained, she had used up
the required months furlough, and de-
stead of fractional, basis throughout,
thereby permitting the Government to
profit to the extent Of 16 cents.
The employing Office, declining to
adjust the claim, advised her to take it
up with the General Accounting ONCE,
which had set the scale for deductions
| without taking fractions into considera-
ton.
Yesterday, Controller General Nc
Carl defended this scale. saying 1t IA
cilitated accounting, and was In the
interest Of economy, and adding: 1T
| is believed that the economy thus Sc
cured by simplifying the procedure and
methods of preparing pay rolls more
than offsets any small loss Of few

But the Controller General wasn't
going to get out on limb. He con-
cluded that while no direct claim fol-
the 16 cents would be entertained, an
