an alleged terrorist organization IN
the Balkans. The next day, July 7,
the day following the dispatch OF
the note to Austria, Alexander went
to Paris and while there he was
stricken with appendicitis.
Rejects UItimatum
1t was Alexander, who after the
assassination of the Austrian Arch
duke Ferdinand at Sarejavo in 1914,
rejected Austria's ultimatum that
the country should conduct an in
quiry into the alleged crime and
conspiracy on Serbian soil. King
Peter having relinquished the
throne few weeks previously, Al
eXander ordered the mobilization
lof the Serbian army at Kragu-
yevatz. He led his troops into bat
tie and was wounded early in the
fighting around Belgrade. Driven
from that city, he established his
capital at Nish, barely escaping
capture as the Austrians entered.
No Separate Peace
The heroic devotion of the then
PRINCE Regent to the Allied cause
was shown several times. Although
desperately pressed and with his
army nearly decimated by famine
and disease as well as by wounds,
Alexander repeatedly refused to
make a separate peace with either
Austria or Germany, although in
vited to do so. Once his field head
quarters was bombarded by enemy
planes.
Cross For VaIor
The French War Cross was early
conferred upon him for valor, when
in 1916, his army greatly depleted,
he went to Rome, Paris and Lon
don to thank the Entente for its
assistance TO the Serbs. Two years
later, with reorganized forces, the
Serbs and Allies won a great victory
along the Macedonian front thus

Diplomatic Skill
AleXander's skill as a diplomat
was shown in 1919 when he went
to Paris to lay Serbia's case before
the Peace Conference. His efforts
were praised by Poincare, Clemen-
ceau and Lloyd George. About this
time he was offered the throne Of
Hungary but refused. 1t was the
Prince Regent who, it was said,
was responsible for Jugoslavias re-
fusal to sign the Austrian peace
treaty because of his opposition TO
paying part of the Austrian in
demnity. The Supreme Council
thereupon changed the treaty draft
in its provisions affecting Jugo-
slavia. Later, as the monarch of
the Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes,
Prince Alexander signed the treaty
in Paris.

paigning at the head of the Serb
ian army showed his sturdiness
and self-reliance. He was educated
in Petrograd and fought in the Bal
kan War of 1912. Like his father
he was intensely pro-Slav.
Averts War
He successfully weathered foul
Ministerial cabinet crises within
two years after taking the helm oil
state and, by signing the Treaty
OF Rapallo, averted war with Italy
over Fiume, the Adriatic seaport
in Dalmatia, which Gabrielle d.
Annunzio, the Italian poet-soldier
and his legionnaires, had held for
many months.
Fiume Incident
Alexander's approval of the treaty
by which d'Annunzio was deposed
and Fiume became free port, met
with some resentment in Serbia
and other parts of Jugoslavia, q
riotous outbreak occurring in Bel
grade when it was announced. The
Prince Regent, although beloved by
his troops, was several times the
intended victim of assasSins, notably
in 1916, when four principals were
executed and several plotters ar
rested, again at Sarejevo in 1926
and still later at Belgrade in 1921
Stormy Regency
Alexander's reg ency for moro
than a year had been politically
stormy. On June 20, 1921, one oil
several recent attempt made TX
assassinate him resulted in the kill
ing of one person and the woundins
of six others. His assailant, who
was captured, gave the name OF
Stegicy. He said he was a Com
munist from the Hungarian prov
inces annexed to Jugoslavia and
that he desired to avenge the as
sassination of the Archduke Ferdi-
nand at Sarajevo, which was the
primary cause of the World War.
Is Stricken
The attempted killing of the
Prince Regent was followed by the
arrest of some $4,000 persons in
various parts of Jugoslavia, depor-
tations and the sending of note
to Austria by the Jugoslav govern
ment demanding the dispersal of

Plan TIlage Tests

TAKING the guesswork out OF tilling the soil,
! the Government plans to construct tllage
laboratory at Auburn, Ala. The project, which
will cost $4,000, is to center in nine shallow
pits 20 feet wide and $50 feet long.
These pits will be two feet deep and win be
brought to ground level by the addition Of q
particular type of top soil found in some loca.
tion in the Southeastern section of the country.
Once the pits have been prepared, various
types Of plows and plow equipment will be given
exhaustive tests to determine which is best
suited for each type Of soil tested. Seed beds
also will be established in an effort to find the
ideal method and ideal crop for each type Of
soil,

c: C. C. Workers AM Nearby Bird Refuge

THE hunters in this area may have con-
siderable cause in the future to give thanks
to the Civilian Conservation Corps for its ac-
tivities In aiding the perpetuation Of water
fowl. Among the activities of the c. c. C..
men have begun development work in three
great bird refuge projects. One Of these is the
Blackwater refuge at Cambridge, Nd
report by the Biological Survey says that
the tree troopers are still at work on the
Swanquarter IN. c. and the st. Marks CFla.)
migratory bird refugees
Thece sanctuaries maintained by the Biolog-
ical Survey are all on the flight line Of wild
fowl in the East. The Blackwater refuge covers
an area of 8,241 acres, including marshes and
waters where black ducks and blue winged teal
breed and mallards and pintails concentrate
Many shore birds also find sanctuary on the
refuge. The Swanquarter refuge, embracing
492 acres of land and marsh, is notable
resting ground for swans, geese and other wild
fowl The largest of these three sanctuaries,
the st. Marks refuge, comprises 1851 acres OF
land and water frequented by ducks, geese,
sanderlings and other shore birds
G. c. c. camps established on these areas
about the first of July with view to making
the refugees more attractive to migratory bird
life and facilitating their administration and
maintenance. On each of the sanctuaries roads
and trails have been constructed or are in
process of construction, fire lines have been cut
through, telephone systems installed, dams
built for the creation of fresh-water ponds,
and cabins fre-tool caches, and other improve
ments provided.
For the first time on any of the refugees
administered by the Biological Survey, per-
manent steel towers have been erected to i'm
prove patrol and observation activities. As
result of the activities of the Civilian Conserva-
ton Corps workers the cost of further i'm
proyements and maintenance at these refugees
will be greatly reduced for many years to come.
Work at the Blackwater camp Maryland was
completed and the camp workers transferred to
another locality on November 81. The camps
on the North Carolina and Florida refugees,
where considerable more development work
was required than on Blackwater, have been ex-
tended for an additional six months.
The major improvement activities of the
c. C. C. at the Blackwater migratory refuge
Evening star., 1934-01-07

during period of approximately four and one
half months included erecting a telephone line
Az miles in length, removing fire hazards on
approximately so acres of woodland, clearing 2
miles Of roadside, improving timber stands on
IS acres, constructing mile of new road, re-
newing and repairing 6 miles of existing roads,
erecting three lookout towers drilling two 400
foot wells and constructing a bridge, 1a mile OF
fence, a machine shed and an addition to the
headquarters dwelling.
Much more extensive programs Of the same
general type are in progress at the North Car
olina and Florida refugees. Among major prof.
ects outlined for the Swanquarter refuge is
the creation of nine ponds to improve condi-
tions for the growth of waterfowl food plants.
Other principal projects at this refuge include
13 miles of firebreak, miles Of trail and 2
miles Of road construction across a swamp area
where corduroying is required. The area orig
inally had no roads other improvements OF
value, and in the past years had been subject
to periodic fires, causing considerable damage
to the resident species of wild life. Fire-pre-
vention improvements now being provided Will
greatly minimize fire losses.
At the st. Marks refuge work IS progressing
on II miles of truck trails, 20 miles OF IRE
break, 27 miles of telephone line construction.
and vehicle bridges. A survey is being made
for the excavation of another considerable area
other projects of importance to the successful
development Of the area for wild life are being

THE Museum Of Modern Art, New York, has
] lately announced evening openings In or.
der that those employed during the daytime
can visit the museum during leisure hours,
and has thus set most excellent example to
other museums. Galsworthy, in an essay On
art written q few years before his death. at.
tributed much that was wrong in cultural life
today to the fact that art had been regarded
so long not as common property, but as for
the few. When art museums are only open
during working hours the working man and
woman cannot be blamed fo- entertaining
some such belief. ~ssz

Loans Easily Paid

THE Federal Government is an easy creditor
] to the farmer who finances his farm mort
gage through the Federal Land Bank.
The appraisal of the farm on which the loan
is made is based not on present sale value but
rather ON the production capacity of the farm
based prices for the 1oyear period up to
and including 1914.
Once a loan has been made, the farmer pays
1t off in semi-annual instalments over a
period Of Sc years. A payment Of $50 per year
will retire the principal of 81 900 loan in SO
years, including interest at the rate of S
per cent.

Of New York a painter who in the last few
years has become popular among collectors.
letter received from the artist recently by the
writer throws an interesting light on two OF
the works included in this exhibition Re-
ferring to the painting of the hut and ma
tives at Samoa, he writes that he painted it
before he had seen any works by Gauguin or
La FARCE which to his mind goes to prove
that it was the scenery, the subject which
inspired not only himself, but these distin-
guished colleagues. With reference to the
painting of AK les Bains he said that the
picture now view here was painted five
years after he made the original pencil draw
ing In the KurSall Square; that the drawing
was perfect-nothing childish about 1t, but
that the painting was done in three-quarters
of an hour, the cabs and people dashed in"
with the purpose of outdoing the neo-impres-
sionistic school-comments which throw an in
teresting sidelight on these paintings.
THE Phillips Memorial Gallery owns five or
more paintings by Rockwell Kent, who is
to lecture here this week under the auspices
of the Washington Society of the Fine Arts.
These are THE Road Members Burial of a
Young Man." "Voyaging, THE Azapardo
River" and "Bonson Maritime Alps"
OF this artist Mr.. Phillips says in "A Collec-
tion in the Making: Barren, lonely places
have called to Kent and he has portrayed
wilderness from close contact with ele-
mental forces, at Monhegan, Newfoundland,
Alaska, TERRA del fuego and wild Ireland. His
actual life and his imaginative life are one.
He is Incompatible as a painter of majestic
mountain landscapes of space Of solitude and
of thrilling skies and lights. Any painter who
can communicate his moods of agony and
ecstacy, of deep impression or buoyant exhilira-
ton with no means extraneous to color and
form, is of the good company of the
chosen few who fulfill the artists true func-
tion Burial of a Young Man is an expression
in color and design of the same tragic beauty
we find in Synges dramatic prose poem Of
the Irish Coast, Riders to the Sea-"
But Rockwell Kent did not learn to paint
in the wilderness; he was a pupil of Chase
at Shinnecock and later of Abbott Thayer. An
cestrally and through early association he has
cultural traditions. To again quote Mr.. Phil
lips: HE is a romantic personality among
contemporary artists one who will Indoubt-
edly live in literature as we'll as in his pen
and ink drawings, his woodblock prints and
his paintings
