 Nearly every nation in Europe was involved directly or indicertly in the kings visit. Frances dtpIo- nlatic supfemarcy was believed to be at stake, and with 1t, the French effort to form a precautionary enc circlement of Germany.
 Soon after A1exander's visit here, BatthUu was due to have one to Rome to confer with Premier Ben ito MussoliFi. Mussolini announced on; Saturday that 6 political and military accord was about to be signed with France.
 So closely are the two events linked that it requires no official announcement to revewl that Franc annOuncement to revewi that France Is attempting to iron out the furrows in Italian -Jugeslav re- lations before they assume the depth of trenches.
 Record of King.
 King Alexander, whose nation was created out of the postwar realignnent in Europe, is known as a firfn-handed ruler who re- storted to dictatorial methods when divisions within his own nation Threatened to break up the king
 A tail, scholarly appearing man, the king encountered grave diffi- culties in the nation of creates, Serbs and Slavs a few years ago. Jealousies and political bickerin led to disturbances which severely Handicapped his regime.
 As a result, the king proclaimed a new constitution and took over power under dictatorial methods, by which he sought to quench the Internal disputes and end chaos.
 He inherited from his slavish parents a rocky throne and a de- finite inclination for army work. He used the latter many times to retain his kingship.
 He is the only European rnor- arch of modern times who led his own army into three wars---the two War. As commander of the first army corps in 1912, he played an important part in the victories of Kumanovo and Bitoij, the battles which resulted in the retreat of the Turks.
 When the Serbian army in 1918 oAVhO thAOA5u bAO A1AA50A VI man lines and assured victory in that sector, Alexander was greeted as the liberator.
 His elementary education in continental languages, and his later years of service as a page in the Russian court impressed upon his mind the idea of a unified nation of Croats, Serbs and Slovenes.
 He ascended the throne of his composite country, created by the peace treaties that followed the World War, in 1921.
 His nationalistie convictions found their first concrete expression when he promulgated his dictatorship over the tin nation in 1929. and prepared to keep it in effect. 1T am really the only true Jugo- slavian; some day I hope to have a nation of Jugoslavians," he said. He assumed all responsibility for the experimnet in royal dictator ship,the only one in Euorpe. On June 8, 1922, Alexander mar ried Princess Marie of Rumania, daughter of Ferdinand and Marie. Three sons, Peter, Tomislav. and Andre were born of the union. The royal family is extremely popular in Jugo-Slavia, Many of the sold iers who fought with Alexander still remember that he found time to visit them frequently in their barracks.
 Alexahder's chance to try out his theories of nationalism came in the lean years that followed the war. His country was poor, the Greats and the Serbs were continually fighting. Corruption was rife.

 'Hauptmann was seated in a chair" Foley said in reviewing the dramatic scene. Colonel Lind bergh came into my office through an entrance leading from pri- vate elevator. He told me previous ly that he had heard the ransom receiver talk. Colonel Lindbergh said he heard the man behind the bushes shouting:

 Referring to state matters the mayor stated that If we want real reformation in state government, If we want social legislation en- acted, if we want an old-age pen- sion, if we want unemployment in- surance, if we want to get the most out of the policy of our great pres ident, we must see to 1t that he gets what he wants in Washington and what Governor Cross needs in Connecticut

Mayor Frank Hayes was one of [1e speakers at the rally held in 4ol;and last night under the aus pices of the Holland County Demo- cratic association. In the course of nis remarks Mayor Hayes pointed out that this campaign was not one for control Of the state or nation, but fight to preserve American pfinciples.
 The mayor said. in part, "These pfIncipies, after years of republican Termination in Hartford and in XFnshington, have been either for gotten or ignored. Their renewal tia application in the ntaion is due solely to Franklin Roosevelt, and In our state to the efforts Of Wilbur Cross and such support as democratic senate was able to give him.
 fThe question now before the v0ters of Connecticut is whether xbu wish to 20 forward with the president or go backward With his political opponents. It is not the oliestion whether the democratic party succeeds but whether Amer fcA succeeds. It is not the question whether the republican party shall control the land, but whether the people shall rule. That is what the word democratic means, rule by the people and for the people. No Platform
 "You all realize by this time that the republican party in our state has no platform worthy of the name. The republican party in our nation has no program. In both state and nation our opponents stand for but one thing: opposition to our president in everything he has done, will do, and in things ne never dreamed of doing.
 Later in his remarks Mayor Hayes called attention to relief work as follows: Especially do they find fault with the spending Of money for relief. And at this point let me remind you that was s4t&yaeS yx, x,ny> .f fhA Oity nf Uatnr.

 ged and every driver receiving a tag must pay the requisite dollar, members of the police department were told to enforce the ordinances strictly. During the period since that time, number of doctors cars have been tagged.
 No Special Privileges
 Special privileges for doctors. according to Superintendent Mc- Lean, would mean an abuse of those privileges in the form of parking anywhere at anytime. In the past, he pointed out. some doc tors have been generally careless about parking their cars, even when they were occupied with other than medical business. Some of them, he said today, parked on corners, in restricted areas and for periods long over the limit. Such condition, the superintendent be- lieves, leads to general violation of the parking ordinances and has to be discouraged.
 The writer of the letter in yes- terday's Democrat, signing him. self "A Doctor, asks that doctor be allowed ito have his car readily accessible in any part of the city" If no other means could be found, he suggested, then new traffic or dinances giving privileges to doc- tors should be passed. Superin- tendent Mclean made it clear this morning that he would not favor any such ordinance, for he believes it would then mean further difficult ties with parking and traffic.
 The heavy traffic in Waterbury today and the inadequate parking facilities, according to the super intendent, make it necessary for parking rules to be enforced on doctors cars except when the phy- sicians are on actual emergency calls. Then, and only then, he said, can exception be made.

 "The purpose of this afternoons meeting is to talk things over" !" Schwarzkopf said. He declined to reveal whether New Jerseys case against Hauptmann had been com pleted.
 It was considered possible that Hauptmann might be extradited to Remington on Thursday, the day set for opening of his extortion trial, although his attorney, James M .Fawcett, will fight removal.

WINE DEALERS

Light wine and beer dealers in
Takoma Park, whose licenses ex-
pire May /, will not contest the
present Montgomery county liquor
law, which provides that Takom&
Park and KenSington, shall re-

Last fall when the law was
passed repeating the 53-year-old
local option law in Montgomery
county a provision was made in
the law whereby the dry areas in
Montgomery county, excepting
Takoma Park and Kensington,
could have a referendum on the
question Of legalizing sale of liq%
uor in their respective districts,
upon presenting a petition signed
by 80 per cent Of the registered
voters in the districts.
AS no provision for referendum
was made in the law for Takoma

piration of the present wine and
beer licenses, and present dealers
or others who might wish to OBJ
tain licenses cannot do so until
