Vienna. April I. = R - Austria
plunged unequivocally Thursday into
the European rearmament race.
A succinct communiQue, issued A.
ter Chancellor Kurt schuschnigg met
with his cabinet, gave notice to the
world the dismembered remnant Of
the old Austro-H Hungarian dual mon
archy would no longer be content
with the tiny army Of $1,000 men
granted her under the treaty Of st.
German.

ment said.
THE necessary procedure to in
crease the armed forces has been
started" it added.
Nation Outwardly Calm
No morning newspapers editorialls

not . single noon edition commented
on the fact that the cabinet had
made decision highly interesting to
other countries: nor did tho govern
ment drop any additional hint 6 to
how it proposed to 60 about building
up its military establishment.
Under its censor's blanket, how

GENEVA OBSERVERS

FOR SECURITY PACT

Mutual Assistance Against

REVIVE PROTOCOL OF 1924

Geneva, April 4.-R-spurred to
action by 0ermany's rearmament,
Geneva observers said Thursday they
believe Europe was headed toward q
pact Of security against war which
would contain provisions for mutual
assistance against aggressor nations.
Advices arriving ct the League Of
Nations headquarters indicate q ten
dency toward general treaty Of mu-
tual assistance which will in q sense
revive the famous Geneva protocol Of
1924. This named q an aggressor
any nation which refuses to arbitrate
and provided penalizing action rang.
ing from economic and financial &C.
ton to military force. Great Britain
refused to ratify that protocol on the
grounds that it meant the British
navy would have to guarantee the
peace Of Europe.
But England now apparently has
been convinced that, with certainty
Of air attacks In event of war, she Is
no longer isolated and that, as was
said by Stanley Baldwin. lord presi-
dent Of the council, England's from
tier is now the Rhine.
Sought Since World War
Since the world war, the eastern
and western hemispheres have sought
feverishly to devise peace systems
which would reduce to q minimum
the chances Of another and more ter.
rible holocaust.
The Warrington naval confer
NenSe 81 .1o12 not only halted naval
building race but concluded treaties
designed to promote the peace Of the
Pacific.
The famous Locarno pact Of 1925
provided for peace on the Rhine.
That pact. signed by Germany. Bel
GUM, France. Great Britain, and
Italy, provides that II any Of the
first three attacks another, the re-
naming five nations shall attack the
aggressor nation.
It was suggested that this pact
might conceivably form the basis for
the protected general European Sc
clrity pact which would implement
any strength the covenant Of the
League Of Nations. It would, Of
course, be open to Germany.
Indications In league circles are
that the proposed treaty would pro.

tract signers to increase their acre

here from George e. Farrell, chief Of

offered, and further. they must agree
to make additional reductions In

citation, In an effort to clear up spe-
cial sections Of the first announce
ments that were indefinite ana mis-
leading.
No contract siener win be allowed

moro than Is per cent Of the base
acreage Of his present contract. This
means that . grower with . 100-acre
base, Of which 10 acres are already
contracted" may increase Is acres.
Counting off the 10 contracted acres,
the maximum amount he could grow
this year would b los acres.

Gay Christmas
Centerpiece Is
Good All Week

Even formal dinner party during
the holidays calls for a gay center
piece that is truly Christmassy. with
color and Streamers that lend the
gay touch. This same centerpiece
can serve for all the Christmas
parties throughout the week, for
surely the children must have their
party too, and Santa Claus making

with his bag of tricks is the incest
decoration of all.
The little house centerpiece is
simply made from lightweight card
board covered with crepe paper in
brick design. The roof, which ex-
tends IL inches all around the
house, is covered with white cotton
for snow, with an added layer of
clear cellophane to make it sparkle.
The house is 1912 inches long and
8 inches wide. It is inches high
at the ends and liz high at the
chimney top. The front and rear
are 81 inches tall.
The chimney. which is 5 inches
high and inches on each side, is
set down into rectangular open
ing cut in the roof when the pointed
roof is laid out fiat.
Santa himself is cardboard cut
out with stuffed bag made of red
crepe paper tied to his back with
ribbon. The streamers drawn out to
each place have little gifts or favors
fastened to them which pull out of
the chimney.
The bags at each plate with place
cards tied to them. are pieces of red
crepe paper gathered up around an
assortment of nuts and candies. A
final holiday touch is the red-edged
paper plate with red gummed stars
pasted on, under the glass plate.

together her wardrobe for a forth
coming Eastern trip.
Among her favorite frocks is a
