Laura ingalls,, whose attempt to set

She had been in the air 10 hours

Los Angeles to New York.
Before retiring, Miss ingalls, made
hurried three-mile trip to the air

guarding her $4,000 ship.
Then she had telephone conversa-
ton with her New York hackers, who
were understood to have encouraged
her to make plans for a new attempt
at a transcontinenta crossing in Is
hours or less. The present mark of
IT hours minutes and 30 seconds

Earhart.

The President was unable to say
just when the dirt will actually start
flying, but predicted 1t will be within
two months.
He mentioned the fact that Secre-
tary of the Interior Ickes, who has
been administrator of public works,
reported to him only few days ago
that it will be necessary to institute
new studies Of applications for allot-
ments, because of changed conditions.
He said IckeS reminded him also that
new information must be supplied by
States, counties sand municipalities in
their applications for allotments. He
said this will take a little more time
than was at first anticipated. Here
tofore, all this information was not
required when any application was
made. For instance, the application
now must include definite estimate
of people that will be employed under
the project in question and some
definite date for completing the prof.
ect must be given.
The President said some of the
States already have good plans for
carrying on work-relief agreed upon,
and that he hoped the other States
would not delay matters.

Because the opinions are divided
within the Council regarding the CEN
soring of Germany, at the demand of
the French government, the discus
Sions are centering around the elec-
ton of a "rapporteur" for the French
note Of censure. It would be against
the principles of the League to admit
that there was quarrel about the
contents of the French draft. So by
tacit agreement the dispute turns
around the person who should report
to the meeting of the Council the
French text.
Madariaga was showed aside as be-
ing too French. The Dane, who
is genuinely a neutral, does not want
the job. The problem was solved in
the typical League manner. The motion
went through without a reporter.
Denmark is one of those unfor-
tunate countries which happens to be
Germany's neighbor, and which was
forced by the allies after the World
War to accept a slice of Germany.
The prudent Danes refused the
large slice the allies offered her and
accepted only the SchlesiUig Prop-
ince, Dtich had been Danish until
1864, 1Uhen it ,UaS lost to Prussia
after the PruSso- Danish War.
But believing that it never pays to
get something for nothing-the
Danes remained strictly neutral dur
ing the last war-they paid for
Schleswig in hard cash.
Denmark, during the war, sold the
Virgin Islands to the United States
for S25,000,000. This amount they
turned over to Germany.
OF course the Germans never saw
a cent of those $25,000,000. The
amount was grabbed by the allies on
account of reparations.'
Now, the Danish government lives
in fear and trembling. The Nazi
propaganda, favoring the return of
Schleswig to Germany. is virulent in
that province. The Danes are not
anxious to keep that newly acquired
territory-although it was originally
part and parcel of their country
and would rather have it go back to
the Reich than have trouble with
Hitler. In any case they do not want
to antagonize Germany by playing
into the hands of France and her
allies.
