GENEVA. May 81 CP.-The Bull
garian political upheaval was re-
garded in League circles today as a
significant fact in the readjustment
OF the political power of Europe by
which the encirclement of Germany
by friends of France is progressing
With the present crisis in the Dis
armament Conference and with Ger
many rearming, France is believed to
be proceeding rapidly to build new
friendships-of which Bulgaria is
thought to be one and Turkey an
other-upon which France could
count in case of an attack
Now that Russia is expected to
enter the League of Nations, it is re-
garded as likely that France and
Russia together will seek the creation
OF a mutual-aSSistance pact within
the framework of the League.
This pact would be opened to Ger
many, but. if this attainment fails,
France and Russia would, it is be-
lieved, construct one between them
selves.
An impediment to Russias entrance
into the League may come from Po-
land. which. now powerful in her own
right, is expected to demand. like
Russia, a permanent seat in the
League Council.
Authorities here see both France
and Germany struggling for Polish
support. A Polish spokesman said
Poland refuses to be the vassal of
France. but is willing to cooperate
with France"
Maxim Ltvinoff. Russian foreign
minister, was regarded as planning to
insist the disarmament conference
discuss the whole problem of political
security and, if the Soviet joins the
League, he indicated Russia would
expect to profit by the covenants
provision tor the maintenance of
peace in the Far East
Efforts are expected toward forcing
both Germany and Japan back to the
League system of peace. failing which,
Europe is likely to create pacts which,
in effect. operate against Germany
and Japan.

PARAGUAY PLANS
GREAT OFFENSIVE
Men and Guns Thrown in
Position Against Bolivian
Fort BaIIivian.

by tHe Associated FTeSS.
ASUNCION, Paraguay, May 21-
Paraguayan men and guns were
thrown into position along a 25-mile
front today in preparation for great
offensive against the most important
Bolivian stronghold in the Gran
Chaco, Fort Ballivian.
Bolivian forces opened hostilities
yesterday with surprise attack, but
were repulsed with the loss of 200
men.
Crucial Battle Seen.
Well informed sources believed the
projected engagement will prove the
crucial battle in the warfare over
the Gran Chaco jungle border re-
gion-
After sweeping over all Bolivian
forts throughout the Chaco, the
Paraguayan high command has con-
centrated approximately 10000 men
divided into four units in the last
forests of the Chaco
Beyond these positions, the Chaco
becomes a plain.
In strongly entrenched positions
ranged before the important fort.
Bolivia has more than $4,000 men,
and heavy reinforcements OF young
men and reserves now in training
were expected shortly.
1t was considered possible Para
guayan officers might coordinate
their forces for immediate action to
cope with the situation before Bo-
livian reinforcements arrive.
Along a 25-mile front, beginning
at the Pilcomayo River and extending
inward, Paraguay placed field guns
and machine guns facing Fort Baln-
Wan after two months of prepara-
ton.
With the arrival of Col. Franco.
commanding two divisions. observers
believed the Paraguayan Army was
ready to attack in a consistent drive.
Col Franco Stars.
Col. Franco has starred for Para
quay throughout the Chaco campaign,
owing, the Chaco office in ASuncion
claims, to his intelligent maneuvers
in drawing Bolivian forces out of po-
sition and then overwhelming them.
It was pointed out today that in
order to reach Fort Ballivian from the
forest where the Paraguayans are en-
camped, it is necessary to cross a
1-mile open plain. This will give
Bolivian defenders a marked advan-
tage when the drive is opened.
The battle which would draw into
action the complete armies of both
sides may develop at any time. Mean
while the Bolivian air force is en-
deavoring to cut Paraguay's sup
ply system by bombing raids back of

public works program for the District.
This bill passed the Senate by unani-
nous vote. was unanimously reported
by the House Committee which in
structed Chairman Norton to apply to
the Rules Committee for a special
rule because this is considered emer-
gency legislation.
The only opposition to the bill was
presented by Representative Blanton,
Democrat. of Texas, on the ground
that it infringed upon the jurisdiction
of the Appropriations Committee. Of
which he is a member, and he Sc
cured the support OF Chairman
Buchanan Of the Appropriations
Committee.
Emergency Legislation.
The bill comes before the Rules
Committee. urged as emergency leg
islation by the District Commission
ers the Public Works Administration,
which had a survey made by eminent
engineers. as well as survey by the
Public Health Service, which showed
dangerous situation as the result
of pollution of the Potomac River. II

Capital Park and Planning Commis-
sion, the Washington Board of Trade
and all of the leading civic and cit

Representative Greenwood of In
diana, the Democratic whip, will lead
the fight for the National Capital
Park and Planning Commission for a
IS 100000 allotment for the mu-
nicipal center He will also make the
fight for the rule on the grounds
that "it would be rank injustice to
deny to the District a right to share
in the public works funds the same
as is granted to the various States
and municipalities.
Smith Leads Fight.
Representative Smith, Democrat, Of
Virginia. also a member of the Rules
Committee, will lead the fight in the
committee for the entire bill, streSSing
especially the necessity for an $8,000.-
600 ALLEGATION for a model sewerage
disposal system; 100000 for a tu-
berculosis hospital and $750,000 for a
wall and other construction safe
guards at the Lorton penal institu-
ton.
Chairman Bankhead and Ranking
Democratic Member O'Connor of New
York are among the members of the
committee who have expressed them
selves as particularly supporting the
sewerage plant item.
At the two hearings held by the
Rules Committee on this bill the
principal objection raised was a ques-
ton as to how funds were to be pro-
vided to amortize 10 per cent of what
ever loan the Public Works Admin
iStration may make. In an executive
conference with the District Commits
sioners the House District Commit
tee proposed an amendment to meet
this sole objection to the bill by pro-
viding that 10 cents of whatever the
tax rate may be shall be earmarked
as a special fund to pay back the
public works loan if made.

is, many observers lately have called
attention to an indication that Mr..
Roosevelt is willing to ignore more
and more of the attacks on his admin
istration. He is not the type, of
course, who will make a face at his
critics. He is master politician, and
keen politicians never do such things
But when one examines the state
ments sand information that is passed
out from the White House in these
days and those forthcoming, say six
months ago, the present-day grist is
much more, if not entirely, free from
answers" to critics. And this is hap
pening in a period when there is OBJ
viously very much more criticism
than in the earlier days of the admin
istration.
Let me supply basis of COMPARE
son: When the airmail contracts were
cancelled, Col. Charles Lindbergh sent
a telegram to the President, complain
ing about the act. The colonel's air
transportation company made the
message public before it was laid on
the Presidents desk, or SO Stephen
Early, one of the Presidents secre-
taries said. After the message appear
ed in the newspapers, Mr.. Early spoke
at length to the newspaper CORES
pondents about the colonels dis
courtesy" in making the message
public. Some six months later, Clar-
, ence barrow, the Chicago attorney,
and the board of review of MIRA af-
fairs which he headed, let loose blast
on MIRA that constituted a most Wit
riolic criticism of this phase Of the
New Deal. The President, himself, has
said almost nothing about the OAR
row board criticism. True, General
Johnson replied in his usual bombas-
tic way, but that was General Johnson
and not the White House.
Criticism has been made in con-
gress> of the Agricultural Adjustment
administration. Attacks on this have
come also from the outside. But there

jectives, Such, however, was not the
case. OF course, the senate commit
tee hearing where Professor Tugwell
was questioned turned out to be an
abortive thing, but still it had been
expected there would be something
that would add to the sum of public
understanding of the destination
sought. Senator Smith of South Car
DINA, Democratic chairman of the
committee and staunch opponent of
Professor Tugwell, tried to pin the
professor down to statements that
would indicate what the so-called head
of the brain trust thought the gov
eminent is doing respecting the agri-
culture. So did Senator Byrd, a Vir-
ginia Democrat. Neither succeeded.
Professor Tugwell was surprised
at the questions asked him. He thot
the committee ought to take his word
without reservation. He assured the
senator's of his unqualified support
of the Constitution of the United
States, but afterward observers here
voiced their inability to reconcile that
assertion with the professors earlier
writings to the effect that he could
not understand "the unreasoning, al
most hysterical attachment of some
Americans for the Constitution" Not
withstanading this, the committee
went right ahead and voted favor
able report to the senate on the pro-
fessor's nomination. Several Wash
ington correspondents asserted in dis
patches to their newspapers, however,
that administration whips had been
cracking close to the backs of numer-
Gus senators.
1t was quite apparent throughout
the hearing on the professors nomin.
alton that many of the Democrats,
and, of course, all of the Republicans
were anxious to gain better under
standing of the New Deal objective.
In that effort, they failed to get to
first base. Mr.. Tugwell advocated a
planned national economy up to a
certain point, but was told by SEN
ators after the hearing that they did
not know what that point was.
Ignores Critics
Another trend, or some think is is
a trend, that is evident in the man
agement of affairs by President
Roosevelt is an apparent willingness
on the part of the White House to pay
less and less attention to critics. That

Writers Left Out
The President is going to Hawaii
for vacation. That fact, of course, is
generally known. But there is one
feature of the trip that has not been
generally circulated. Arrangements
for the trip call for virtual elimina-
tion of news correspondents from the
picture of the Presidents vacation.
That is almost without precedent.
Washington correspondents are wall
ing and crashing teeth all over the
place, because that would be a gorge
Gus trip for those assigned to write
news about the President. Usually, fiji
teen or twenty writers accompany the
President everywhere he travels. II
inks the correspondents, personally,
but it seems to be irking some of the
great newspapers more because they
are taking the view that it constitutes
censorship by the President.

on the part of the administration. This

twenty years and never in that time

a friendly press at all times. Every
thing that was necessary for the
newspaper writer's was theirs to
