gether satisfactory, Jock then obeyed
her injunction to ''lie down and be
very quiet"
While she mused her problem, there
was quick knock.
"Open, please" her mother bade
her.
Louise's heart beat furiously. She
tucked Jock under the bed and opened
the door. facing her mother with wide,
frightened eyes.
Sensing something unusual. Louise's
mother gazed about the room. Her
eyes fell on little black body pushing
itself forward until it reached the
comforting shoe of its divinity.
Mercy me-" she exclaimed, "a
dog! So that's where you've been."
Louise struggled for words, but they
did not come. The two stood staring
at each other. Then her mother went
out. murmuring. 'I'n be right back"
Louise thought wildly. "If mother
won't let him stay, I'll not stay,
either" and she formed mad. bitter
resolutions, and all the while her heart
continued to thump so noisily that she
could hear nothing else, not even her
mothers returning footsteps.
'Oh. mother" she said, close to
tears, and got no further.
Here. my dear. if you're going to
have dog" her mother said. in a
firm but not ungentle voice. you may
as well learn how to bring him up
properly"
For a long time Louise stood hold
ing the book. She was terribly happy,
but she couldn't trust herself yet to
show that she was.
The pup. resting on her shoe. slept
in peace. He had nothing on his mind
now except to watch over his new
found mistress As long as he felt her
shoe beneath his chin. he knew no
harm could come to her.

Napoleonic wars it took a mans

In the next war. that tendency will

In that next war - unless, i'm

could never forget that the biggest

of submarines but of aircraft. Against

Behind those swarming "whippets"

quickfirers that vomit shells, to deal
with serious obstacles - even as the
battleship supports the cruisers and
the destroyers. Away around the rear
of that impotent mass other Light
tanks will be racing across the lines Of
communications. shooting up local
headquarters, spreading chaos of
disorder and dismay. Yet further in the
rear, the side which has put its faith

 May Postpone Session
 Geneva, Dec 16-(UP)-The league secretariat consulted France and Great Britain today with view of postponing a meeting of the coun- Gil, set for Wednesday, until after debates in the two parliaments on the Italian Ethiopian crisis.
 The alternative day would be Fri day.
 The British house of commons is to discuss Thursday the peace pro- posals drafted by Sir Samuel Hoare and Premier Pierre Laval, and the French chamber of deputies is ex- pected to discuss it during the next few days.
 It was believed that small nations asked the postponement in order that they might gain time to ar- range their strategy in opposing the proposals. The French and British governments, which wanted the council to meet last Saturday to consider the proposals, may oppose this postponement.
 Heckling Begins
 London, Dec. 16-(UP)-Resent- ment against the Franco British peace plan in the Ethiopian war broke out today in heckling on the floor of the house of commons.
 While the government was hold- ing hurried consultations in ad- vance of an emergency cabinet meeting at which its defence" of the plan will be mapped out, labor ties began an attack in the house in advance of Thursdays scheduled formal debate.
 Tn the absence of Sir Samuel Hoare, foreign minister, who is i'll, the attack centered on Capt. An thony Eden, minister for League af- fairs. ,s
 Does the government still ac- cept responsibility for these shame full proposals?" asked Hugh Dalton, leading laborite.

to the republicans out of his demo- cratic pay-check. Fletcher predicted 8 meeting devoid of fireworks. He expected to wing up the sessions tonight with selection of either Cleveland, Chi cago or Kansas City as the city in which the party next spring will choose its presidential candidate. Some Friction Expected
 What friction develops will be principally over the apportionment of convention delegates. Since the republicans carried only six states in 1892, as contrasted with 40 in 1928, 34 states, if the strict party rule is followed, will lost the extra seats which go to those carried by the party.
 Potential presidential candidates will be in the back ground during the meeting but all will have their ears tuned to the political gossip and chit-chat which will be ex- changed. If not able to listen to 1t personally they will have 1t carried to them by trusted lieutenants.
 Chairman Fletcher held @ recep- ton at his home yesterday for dele gates, but had nothing to say re- garding the gathering.
 i've concluded my work" he said. "The meeting will ride off as scheduled. I've held no conferences and I'm staying out of all discus- SionS."
 Suggested Platform
 Although the program called for no controversial discussions, several committeeman had platform sugges- tions to offer. One of these came from Spangler and included:
 1. Government economy through a balanced budget.
 2. Sound money.
 3. Division of federal state and local powers.
 4. Retention of the protective tariff.
 5. Treatment of relief as local problem except in localities unable to cope with 1t.
 6. Payment of the soldiers bonus out of the $40o0, ,00o, 900 work relief fund.

$25 and costs and given jail term of six months, the latter sentence being suspended. She was charged with residing. Also charged with residing, Nick Cristofano, 49, of 256 Bank street, was sentenced to six months in jail and fined $50 and costs.
 Stella DeMaio, charged with op- erating house at 2 Vine street, was fined $50 and costs and given 30 days in jail. A girl charged with residing, Mary Sliby, %, of New Haven, was fined $10 and costs.
 Alleged Ring Leaders
 MT. and Mrs. Varanelli and Var rome, the alleged ringleaders of the vice organization in the city, still face charges in city court of oper- ating a house of i'll fame on Pond street. The local charges will be waived. however, as soon as the fed- eral warrants are made out, and the trio will be arraigned before Commissioner Krasow on a charge of transporting female across q state line for immoral purposes.
 Even after disposition of the fed- eral charges, the three may face prosecution in superior court here on 8 charge of living from the earnings of prostitution. In addl- tion, Barrone is wanted for jump- ing bond while awaiting trial in the court of common pleas on a vice charge some months ago.
 The five who were arraigned and sentenced this morning had been held since Friday night under bonds of 5000. They pleaded nolo contenders to the charges placed against them this morning.
 Police hinted today that the vice campaign may lead to many additional arrests, and an attempt at a complete clean-up of such places in the city. Police have been hampered by the fact that the es- tablishments have moved from one location to another at regular in- tervals. There have also been com- plaints that the local courts have been too lenient with vice offenders.
 Judge Mascolo touched on this point this morning when he stated: T think that perhaps we've been too lenient with these out-of-town girls who come in here to work in these places and then are arrested for residing. They shift from one place to another; they know the risk they're taking and they should be willing to pay the consequences" He then fined the two girls charged with residing.
 The entrance of the government into the vice crusade marks the first time in years that a Mann Act charge has been advanced in Waterbury. The government agents are still Investigating here and are said to have uncovered much valu- able evidence,
