PARIS STRIKES
MGURNFUL TONE
IN ARMS NOTE
Calls for Recruits as New
Demand for Security Is
Given British.

BIZ United Press
LONDON, March PA some
what funereal note from France on
disarmament left Great Britain still
willing today to seek further for a
solution of the problem.
AS the note was published, the
French war ministry announced that
beginning April it would accept
eighteen month enlistments from
men who had fulfilled their COM
pulsory military training period of
one year.
League of Nations headquarters
at Geneva announced that 1000 900
men we're under arms in Europe,
and that an additional $4,000 900
could be modified at any time,
ready for war
The French note showed no real
progress-rather qualification of
the deadlock that has existed for
many months.
France demanded, in brief, that if
Germany were permitted to disarm,
Britain and other nations must
guarantee Frances security. 1t
was specified that consultation
would not be enough-that there
must be certainty of prompt and
effective penalties against any ma
ton, meaning Germany, which
proved aggressive.
Germany could do nothing more
reassuring as regards her peaceful
ness, the French note said, than to
rejoin the League of Nations.
Despite the tone, the British
government expressed hope that the
door is not closed" 1t was said
that the government was not pre-
pared to guarantee the inviolability
of any frontiers, as the French note
seemed to ask.
Some optimists suggested that
Britain might be willing to con-
slider some form of common &C
ton" against a European violator
of a disarmament agreement pro-
vided the United States attitude
was satisfactory.
1t was intimated that this would
involve an American promise not
to preserve diplomatic and trade in
tercourse with a nation condemned
as a violator.

CITY INDUSTRIAL NEWS OF THE WEEK
CHEAP PAINTS CALLED
EXPENSIVE AS BARGAIN
Fail Both in Durability and Protect
ing Surface.

Paints that are inferior because
of cheap ingredients or manufacture
are costly bargain to home own
ers, according to Ernest 7. Trigg.
president of the National Paint,
Varnish and Lacquer Association.
Builders have figured that ap-
proximately rs per cent of the cost
of the average paint job is for labor
and only Is per cent for material.
Since cheaply made paint neither
lasts nor adequately protects the
surface it is supposed to cover. it
is obviously poor economy to pur-
chase a material that will last only
half as long as paint costing a few
dollars more, and then be obliged to
pay for having the job done all over
again"

DECORATING IDEA GIVEN
WallbOard Can Be Background for
COlOrfuI Treatment.

Rooms that have been converted
into recreation rooms or home bars
with partitions of walllboard, fire.
quently demand novel and unusual
color treatment.
If the wallboard has not already
been sized, treat it with a good
interior spar varnish thinned with
turpentine to about the consistency
of linseed OIL
If small quantity of the paint
that is to be used as the finish coat
is added to the varnish-Size the
size coat often will answer the
purpose of printing coat. The
wallboard may then be finished with
two or three coats of any wall paint.

Allow Coats to Dry

1t is impossible to obtain the best
results in painting if each coat of
paint is not allowed to dry thor
oughly before the next one is ap-
piled. The experienced painter is
the best judge of how many coats
are needed to suit the individual
nUrnOSe.

Painting Time Near

With the arrival of spring, ex-
terror painting projects should be
planned. Paint authorities point
out that exterior painting should
be done only in dry weather, and
when the thermometer registers at
least 40 degrees. Cold weather and
moisture are apt to interfere with
getting good results.

New Kind of Clock

Whoever owned that six
month-old beagle pup which was
awarded the prize in the puppy
class at the recent dog show
doesn't need a clock to tell Of
approaching meal-time.
The last day Of the show the
pup was somewhat tired by the
events of preceding days in
which he had behaved himself
with the utmost decorum.
Dinner hour rolled around
late that afternoon and the pup
started to whine.
His whine changed to shrill
bark.
And for many moments until
he was fed nothing could at
tract his attention or force him
to cease his supper call.

Harry Fraley conducts q

Not 50 long ago he took q
group of young enthusiasts out
for q lesson in the difficult art

instead Of teaching them how

Harry was leading his class

One young woman persisted in

He turned to tell her to hasten.
Off in the distance a golfer
drove his ball from the green.
It hit Harry slightly in front

Paid For Bumps
While on the subject of
riding there is story in cir

who recently rented a riding
academy horse, after telling
the stable master she was un-
able to ride.
In the Park it acted in q
manner which she believed
fractions. Unable to hold on to
the saddle she decided to dis
mount.
The horse was galloping. She
swung a foot over the saddle
SO that both feet were on the
same side and hoped that she
might slide gently to the
ground.
She slid. The result was
other than expected.
She was hurt. They took her
to the hospital.

Chorus under the direction Of
Robert Frederick Freund have set
a high standard for the popular
programs which have come to be

The Army Band concert Of
seven selections was arranged to
prepare a background for the
gypsy songs to follow, especially
notable a cornet solo by Ralph
Ostrom and a walt, Moonlight

Mr.. Freund possesses rich
voice and one admirably suited to
the lifting and happy tunes Of
the Gypsy. so it is little wonder
that he and his Gypsies should
score a notable triumph. The
soloiSts were all so competent
that to single out the members is
quite unnecessary except to say
that Mr.. Freund and the guest
artists, namely Gretchen Hood.
Amer Evans, Paul CARRIER and
Ridgeway Taylor were in excel
lent voice. Sylvia Kaplowitz, ac-
cordianist, talented, charming,
and delightful, was received with
acclaim while Frances Rands,
dancer, performed with rhythm,
grace and artistry.
The chorus in colorful finery
sang any number of lively re-
frains climaxing them all with
the italian Street Song" and
"Auf Wiedersehn." The children,
with Master Billy Feury, right
