be taken as proof that no question
remained in their minds on the score
of Hauptmann's participation. 1t was
clearly the aim of the defense through
out the trial to plant that question in
the minds of the twelve, by the i'm
peachment of the witnesses for the
prosecution, by the advancement Of
testimony to account for the possess
sion Of funds In large amount, by the
indication of others who might have
committed the crime. That this effort
failed was plain from the manner in
which the jury voted on the first ballot.
There was one factor that lies
within the realm of psychology that
may have had a weight in this deter
mination of the jury. That was the
failure of the defense to explain in
reasonable ternas why Hauptmann, If
innocent of participation in the crime,
did not restore the property of his
former partner. Fisch, to his family
after Fisch's death in Germany. This
placed Hauptmann in the position, at
best, of being false to his friend. 1t
exposed him to the full force of the
charge that either Fisch was his asso-
ciate in the crime or that he had
been introduced as a scapegoat who
could not be summoned from the grave
and so could not defend himself.

A modern housewife has something
expected of her which housewives OF
former ages did not have to think
much about.
She must be charming!
In the old days all she had to do
was be a good woman, good cook, q
good wife.
Now she must possess the inde-
finable power of delighting others.
She must excite love and admira-
ton, In addition to all her other
duties.
This does not mean that she must
be what they used to call q "charmer,
a word which has gone out of style.
Modern charm is a great deal more
elusive than that.
It gets nearer to the meaning Of the
French word, charme, from the Latin
carmen, a song.
The qualities Of a song. considered
simply as a song. are those Of light,
airy grace. No doubt when most OF
us think Of song. that Is what we
think about.
In all modern ideas of the charming
person rests something Of the ancient
idea of the verb, to charm, to be-
witch. to influence as by magic, to
endow with magic power, to captivate,
delight.
These are elusive qualities, truly
but not confined solely to women.
Men, too, a lovely lady tells us. can
be charming.
Somehow this is different from pos
sessing personality, as such.
One may have personality, as the
word is usually taken, without being
a bit charming, or at least so We are
told.
The word charming" has been
banded around so much during recent
years that it really means little any
more, but some persons specialize in
its use.
Every one they know-especially
when they desire to make an impress
sion on others-is charming"
Such charming people one never
knew, but they know 'em, all right!
Everybody they know Is so very
charming that the listener is made to
feel out Of place in such brilliant
constellation.
When he happens to meet some of
those persons. however, he is very
much pleased to see that they are much
as all other human beings.
Wherefore, he begins to wonder
where the charm" comes in.
Is there, after all, such a thing?
Can it be said to be any more than
personality--the old-fashioned per-
Sonal magnetism?
Through the ages mankind has rec
ognized the possession by certain OF
its members Of powers Of persuasion
not possessed by all.
These powers made their holders
delighting, captivating to others. Not
all. of course. This magic quality
like most qualities, does not work in
all directions all the time.
The idea of bewitching, influencing
as by magic, always has been incor-
porated in the idea expressed by the
word charm"
The word itself as a noun means
some sort of verse. sentence. word, act
or object having occult power.
An amulet, trinket may be q
charm.
So the person who is said to cap
tivate us is declared by admirers tc
be charming, possessed Of magic abil-
ity beyond ordinary mortals.

Hitler's Answer.

Germany's position regarding the
recent Franco-British program for the
pacification OF Europe is now ready
and about to be transmitted to the
Paris and London governments. Ad-
vance reports from Berlin indicate
that the cardinal feature of Fuehrer
Hitler's reply will be demand for
plebiscite in Austria, to determine
whether or not that country desires
to join Germany, as condition of
German participation in any pact to
guarantee Austrian independence.
1t is also indicated that the Reich
will only join a proposed air pact If
it allows Germany aviation strength
equal to that of the Soviet Union.
Nor will the Reich be party to any
Eastern Locarno" based on mutual
assistance. It might consider a nom
aggression pact, but will not listen
to anything that might commit Ger
many to get mixed up in war be-
tween Russia and Japan" This is
said also to be the position Of Poland.
Finally. before anything else can be
talked about, Hitler insists that the
Western powers must concede Ger
many's absolute equality in arma-
ments.
Germany's overwhelming victory in
the Saar plebiscite last month was
bound to whet the Nazis' desire to
recover other war-lost territory, such
as that now incorporated in Lithuania,
Denmark and Belgium. The ten-year

is recognized as being composed Of
certain ingredients, mental and phy-
sical. It Is the belief of many that
these things can be both taught and
acquired by study.
No doubt they can. Just how much
charm one could acquire, by taking
thought, would depend entirely upon
the person. Perhaps 1t is here as with
chemistry, there are some persons who
would learn a great deal more than
others, simply because their natures
were agreeable to that which had to
be attained.
Every one who has been to school
knows how 1t is. Chemistry, for IN
stance, comes very hard to certain
natures, easy to others. One young
person in four years Of study will be-
come a chemist, actually, another in
theory only.
Both, however, will be benefited, to
some degree at least.
Just as some persons, however, were
never intended to be chemists, having
rather q hankering for the inexacti-
tudes Of English composition, not
every human being can become charm
ing, In the best sense.
Whatever sticks, however, will be
helpful.
The question of whether everybody
ought to try to be charming Is quite
another matter.
The idea OF universal education, 20
called, has spread. until most Of us
have the naive idea nowadays that
there ought to be universal charm
universal cleverness, universal cleanli-
ness. universal musical ability, uni
versal appreciation for dogs, old books
gems, flowers, mountain climbing
skiing, skeet shooting. bottles, glass
ware, furniture, tropical flsh, postage
stamps
Yes, we must all be all things, know
all things, enjoy all things
Bosh!
No one ever did, and no one ever
will
Many persons, however, have mace
the pretense, and many no doubt will
continue to make 1t.
Those Of us who are not at all
charming should waste no time Ia
menting it.
Some of us even may be so obdu-
rate as to refuse to be charming II we
could.
The world must not be lost in q vel
ter of charm. Let some misuse the
word as they will. We insist that
there is a place for the utterly un-
charming person -.
The truth is that many persons will
be as unable to be charming, In the
strict modern sense, as an elephant.
The pachyderm may be q very fine
fellow, a right proper elephant, but,
when 1t comes to charm, he is an out
cast.
There is many a man, and many a
woman, too, let us whisper, who can
no more be charming than a barn
door.
Nor should they worry about it.
This is a vast world. and conflict
seems to be the core of 1t.
RoughneSs is, at bottom, a good
trait, even in civilization, II 1t Is not
too rough.
We are all wolves, at bottom. and
whoever heard of a charming wolf?
Yet there is something ennobling
about the struggling housewife who
wants to be one of the charming ones
of earth, something engaging in the
young man who feels that an elusive
popularity can be gained by stricter
observance of certain magic rules.
Some are born charming, but most

Offer to Russia Reasonable.
In Opinion of American Press

"He who sups with the Soviet needs
long spoon" remarks the San Fran
cisco Chronicle, thus epitomizing the
feeling implicit in much of the Ameri-
can newspaper comment on the failure
of the debt negotiations between Rus
sia and the United States.
Most Americans" thinks the New
Haven Journal-Courier, will agree
that the American offer reads as more
than reasonable. Claims against Rus
sia. including the Kerensky loan, re-
pudiated bonds and confiscation OF
American-owned property, totaled ap-
proximately 100000, 900. Russia in
return pressed claims for damages for
American participation in allied in
tervention in Archangel. Balancing
the two and scaling down the Ameri-
can claims, Mr. Hull, after conferences
with the President, offered to settle
for one-fourth the full amount, $780,
000,0 An average of 20 years for
liquidation was provided Moreover
that there should be no direct drain
upon Russian finances, payment could
be made in the form of added interest
charges on credit advanced. Payment
that is, could arise from actual busi-
ness transacted. 1t seemed q neat
plan. But it is now on the diplo-
matte aSh-heap. The tone of Mr.. Hull's
statement implies that the next step
If any, must come from the Soviet
government"
The San Francisco Chronicle, re-
calling that 'tn the exchanges that
accompanied our recognition of the
Russian government that country
made fairly definite promises about
debt settlements" recognizes that
there were some handicaps on both
sides and explains: The Soviet does
not want to set a precedent for others
of its debtors. The Soviet, even
though o dictatorship, fears to offend
its reds by recognizing the debts of
its capitalistic predecessors. Our Gov
ernment fears to offend Senate die
hards who clamor for payment in full
or let 'em be welshers.' In these cir
cumstances It is hard for either gov
eminent to get down to business on a
realistic basis. If the Soviet pays at
all on the debts, it thinks it must
camoufage the payment. If our Gov
ernment lets Russia on on any part
Of payment, it may think it has to
camoufiage that"
The promised Russian trade" In
the opinion Of the Louisville Courier
journal, "is q wtll-o'-the wiSp." The
Courier-Journal points out that with
out . debt settlement, the Soviet, m-
der the johnson act, cannot borrow In
the United States, and without loans
in this country, It cannot buy" The
Louisville paper understands that both
countries want the trade that was
promised. but concludes: THE plan
brought back from Moscow by Am
bassador Troyanovski and widely
heralded as Q solution of the contro-
versy, though never made public, was
turned down after q minute con-
ference. The two nations are as far

tances within the galaxy itself there
would be some astounding differences.
For more practical determinations of
terrestrial magnitudes the differences
are so small that any errors intro
duced probably would be well within
the range of probable error.
One Of the hypothesis of the orig
inal Einstein theory, growing out Of
the failure of the celebrated Michel
son-Morley experiment to detect the
molten of the earth through space,
was that the seped of light was the
ultimate velocity upon which the me-
chanics of the universe depends. Espe-
cially in the Lorenz hypothesis. We

Prof. Nicholson, perhaps the great
est of American physicists, died with
the problem to which he had devoted
the major efforts of his life still un-

believe that he had brought it within

Just what is the trouble.
Probably with instruments now
