Chaco war, with between 10000 and

of Nations council at Geneva sent
cables to 81 governments asking If
they would put an arms embargo on

taken after the council had adopted
resolution favoring such an embargo

Roosevelt. The State department in

INVITATIONS

nEAR Mrs. Post: The other day
- we received this invitation:
Dear Mrs. Jones-Will you and Marie
come in for tea on Monday, October 2
at 4:30? Mrs. Blank Is staying with
me and | have asked a few friends in
an invitation to tea written on a visit
Ing card, or an engraved invitation,
need not be answered. But what
about this one?
Answer: This one Is an especially
polite invitation to tea in the form
of personal note. II should be an
swered with note saying, "Marie and
i will be delighted to take tea with
you on Monday, and to meet Mrs.
Blank"
My dear Mrs. Post: I am moving
very soon, and few days after I'm
settled in my new apartment | would
like to have cocktail party. Could
l tell my friends that I have moved
to a new address and also invite them
In the same invitation?
Answer: OF Counsel
Dear Mrs. Post: My sister received
a wedding invitation for the ceremony
and reception of very dear friend
of hers who lives out of town and
whom sister has not seen for several
years. She cannot go and instead of
the usual third person acknowledge
ment to her friends parents, would
1t not be better for her to write a
personal note and explain why she
cannot be at the wedding?
Answer: OF course to this, too.
NV dear Mrs. Post: We have in
vited out of town friends to come stay
with us for a week. l feel that they
will drive in their car, which means
that they will have their chauffeur in
town, too. Are we supposed to pay
for garage rent and also to find
place for their man to stay, because
we have no additional sleeping rooms
where we could accommodate him?
Answer: No. Their car and their
chauffeur are their responsibilities. II
you have several servants and II is
convenient to you to invite him to take
his meals In your kitchen, he may per-
haps accept this invitation. Or ne
may even then prefer to eat at a
restaurant Of his own choosing. At all
events, the responsibility to lodge and
board him would be yours only If you
lived in big house far out in the
country.

CLARENCE DARROW'S report on
~ the NRA, submitted some time ago
to President Roosevelt, has been made
public, and In the main it was just
what was expected from the Chicago
lawyer and his colleagues. 1t analysed
eight of the more important codes and
found that seven of them foster
monopolies, help big business and do
lot toward putting small concerns
out Of business. These seven codes
are: Electrical manufacturing, foot
wear division, rubber manufacturing,
motion pictures, retail solid fuel, steel,
ice, and bituminous coal. The report
found no monopolistic features in the
cleaners and dyers' code.
Administrator johnson and his chief
counsel, Donald R. Richberg, had been
given the report previously for the
purpose Of composing reply to it.
This they did, to the extent of $4,000
vigorous words. They answered all
the barrow charges and asserted the
report was superficial" 'intemperate,"
inaccurate" "prejudiced," lone sided,"
Inconsistent" 'nonsensical," "insup-
portable" false" and "anarchistic."
IN ITS battle with the NRA the Ford
company won first blood, obtaining
from Justice ]. w. Cox of the District
Of Columbia Supreme court temporary
injunctions enjoining Secretary of the
Interior Ickes and Secretary Of Agri-
culture Wallace from rejecting bids
Of the Northwest Motor company for
supplying Ford trucks to their depart
ments.
The orders were based on the Ford
agency's complaints that the secre-
taries had refused it's bids, which were
acknowledged to be lower than those
Of competitors, on the ground that no
certificate had been filed by the Ford
Motor company showing that it was
complying with the MIRA code.
r. P. Sabine, head of the Northwest
Motor company, certified in his bids
that his agency was operating under
the code, but he refused to speak
either for Ford, who has not signed
the automobile code, or the 5000 other
manufacturers who, he said, had
part in producing the truck. To re-
quire him to make such certification,
he declared, was impractical and IN
just.

SEAMAN JURY ON
 CITY COURT CASE
Summary Process Action Here Creates Interest;
 Recess Voted

The summary process action Of amy Persky against Bertha Ben- kler, the case in which the plain tiff seeks to oust the defendant from South Main street premises and which had been already tried once by the first city court civil jury in many years, came up for hearing again this morning in city court before Judge J. Lambert Degnan of Southington and a six man jury.
 After testimony until noon, Judge Degnan excused the jury for an hours luncheon recess. Test!- mony was resumed at l o'clock this afternoon, with a quick end- ing of the case predicted.
 A jury verdict in the first hear ing went to the defendant, Bertha Benkler, but that verdict was set aside by Judge Edward Mascolo as contrary to the evidence, paving the way for a new trial. With Judge Mascolo disqualified, the case was turned over for hearings before the Southington judge.
 
 The case hinges on occupancy of a South Main street store by the defendant, the plaintiff claiming that she has a right to oust the tenant because the store was rent ed on a month-to-m basis. The jury at the original hearing agreed with the defendants claim that the store was held by verbal lease. not by a month-to-month agreement.
 Wide interest has been noted ir the case. for it marked the frs, time that a six man jury sat in city court in 15 years. Opening of the new trial today provided further unusual procedure in local legal history. Attoy John Cassidy appears for the defendant, Atty J. Gregory Lynch for the plaintiff.
