Eight engagement at the Murat
Christmas, is up on her toes" in
more ways than one She knows
what's going on about her, has def
mite likes and dislikes.
For instance, the 17-year- old
dancer, born on a freight train, Of a
Russian colonel and a Georgian
princess, thinks Clark Gable is the
outstanding male screen star.
MFR. Gable has SO much charm, so
gracious a smile an artistry all his
own" Miss Toumanova said in a
recent interview.
Pavlowa Instilled Ambition
With her parents, the attractive
Russion girl travelled through
China, Japan, india and Egypt. In
Paris she saw Anna Pavlowa dance,
Immediately expressed desire to
take Up that mode of artistic ex-
preston.
With the Pavlowa inspiration,
Miss Toumanova made her debut in
the Trocadero in Paris, with Miss
Pavlowa, st the age of seven.
Following the performance" Miss
Toumanova said, THE most impor
tant event in my life took place. Miss
PavloWa took me on her knee, told
me 1t Is the mind and the heart, not
the feet which make for a great
dancer"
Likes History, Novels, Italian Art
Miss Toumanova, who has a glut-
tonous interest in history, reads
novels and loves Italian painting,
has very definite idea about art
in any form. She feels that a truly
great person must live forever in
the memory of the audience. Those
who appear only temporarily to the
peoples taste, are not really
artists.
She likes American hotels,
cafeteriaS and shoes each for special
reasons. She was wearing a pair of
American made slippers when we
interviewed her. She showed them
gaily.
There is just something about
America l can't resist" she said.
In Paris, which I love, nothing ever
happens. I must have something
happening. So I hope to make
America my permanent home"
Carlo, Dietrich Have Charm
Greta Carlo and Marlene Diet
rich have charm, says Miss Tou-
manova, but it is always displayed in
the same manner, which makes
their pictures monotonouS to her.
Jean Harlow friend of Miss Tou-
manova's, is not a great artist, even
in her specialties, the petite Russian
claimed. The evidence of jeans
/ dyed hair is sufficient to prove to
Miss Tamara that Miss Harlow's
popularity is not the lasting kind.
Miss Toumanova joined Col. de

AUSTRIA ASKS
FOR INCREASE
IN ITS ARMY

GENEVA, March 25. U.P)-Austria
seeks the right to establish an army
of 100000 men by institution of
compulsory service, it was said on
reliable authority today.
Reports from Vienna said the Fa-
scist heimwehr planned to make
Prince Ernst Rudiger Won Starherl-
berg regent of Austria and reports
from London said Turkey planned
to announce her determination to
fortify the Dardanelles.
There were indications that Hun
gary and Bulgaria would make un-
animous the effort to re-write the
World war treaties, and seek liberal
ization of restrictions on their ar
mics.
Diplomatic circles in Geneva said
the Austrian government had init
mated to Great Britain, France and
Italy that it could not maintain its
position much longer unless the
military clauses of its st. Germain
peace treaty aollwing an army of
10000 were relaxed.
Italy was said To favor the Aus
trian plan because it would
strengthen Chancellor Kurt Schu-
schnigg and his government against
Nazi expansion in southeastern
Europe.
However, the little entente ma
tons - Roumania, Czechoslovakia
and Jugoslavia-are hostile to revi-
sion of the st. Germain treaty, re-
alizing that if it we're relaxed Hun
gary and Bulgaria would demand
similar relaxation of military clauses
in their treaties.
The Starhemberg report was that
Austrian heimwehr CFascisD lead

prince, now vice chancellor, regent
by changing the constitution, pro-

sion of an office during the pend
ency of an action to determine the
validity of an election. The defen-
dantS, he stated, are actually carry
ing out the duties of the offices
which they hold and for that reas-
on should not be ousted.
Childers argued that the plain
tiffs must prove they are public
officers" TO come within the terms
of the code provision before the
court could make any order in the
matter He held that the person
occupying the office is the public
officer" referred to in the code and
as such he is protected by section
1014 of the code and are TO be con-
sidered as the actual incumbent of
that office.
Horton opened his argument for
the plaintiffs in the action by stat
ing that the position taken by the
respondents is politically unsound.
Actual incumbentS are not the only
sections l0l4-15-l6 of the code in
speaking of incumbentS. An incum-
bent, he said, is not necessarily a
person in physical possession Of a
certain office without other quail
fications in the eyes OF the law. He
maintained that duly elected per-
son, one possessing certificate of
election and who has otherwise
qualified by taking the oath and
posting his bond, is also to be con-
Sidered an incumbent. He cited
numerous authorities to prove this
contention.
Shortly before noon the court
halted the argument and declared
recess until 2 o'clock this after
noon. Judge Warmer stated that
he had been asked to come here to-
day TO preside over a hearing which
would not be Of long duration but
he felt that more time would be
necessary, forecasting g possible
continuation of the matter. He
said he had q trial awaiting him
in San Bernardino and that he
must return there as soon as pos
sible. Horton stated that he, too
is called away as he must be in
Sacramento tomorrow night anc
hoped that this present question
might be concluded today.
The court stated this matter
would be decided during the re-
sumption of the hearing this af.
ternoon.

SHORT TRAIN
BILL UPHELD
State Senate Refuses To Recon-
slider Measure Limiting Maxi
mum To 20 Cars

SACRAMENTO, March 25 UP)-
The state senate today gave final
approval to a short train bill and
a so-called cement trust" meas
ure when it declined to reconsider
earlier votes on the two proposals.
Both bills now 60 to the as
sembly.
Senator Andrew Schottky, Mer-
ced, who had asked reconsideration
of the short train measure, waived
his motion today when 1t became
apparent he had not mustered
enough strength TO switch the
vote.
The bill, by Senators Jerrold L.
Seawell, Roseville, and Harold j.
Powers, Eagleville. would limit the
length of freight trains to maxi
mum of 10 cars, thereby providing
employment for additional train
crews, and supposedly decreasing
the possibility of accidents.
BY the slim margin of l9 to 18,
the senate refused to reconsider a
vote which previously approved a
bill believed by some legislators to
be particularly favorable to cement
companies.
The bill inquestion was Senator
Leonard Difani's measure to re-
peal the Turner act, which requir-
ed state highway engineers to con-
slider alternate cement and asphalt
bids on highway projects, and to
accept the lowest bid whenever
conditions were favorable to the
use of eight material.
Since asphalt bids usually are
lower, opponents of the Turner act
said it bound engineers to use as
phalt whereas they usually pre-
ferred cement, due to its longer
wearing abilities.
Senator j. I. Wagy, Bakersfield
in asking for reconsideration, said
he wished to amend the Difani
bill to strike out certain "obiec-
tionable" features. After consider
able argument, the upper house
voted and the motion to reconsider
lost by one vote.
While senators considered these
two special orders of business, the
assembly began its forth week by
listening to a long report on the
building and loan situation, SUBJ
mitted by Assemblyman Frederick
Peterson, Burlingame, minority
member of a special committee
appointed in January to investi-
gate reported irregularities.

TOKYO, March 25. W.H-Rumors
that the japanese cabinet may re-

in Tokyo tonight as the imperial
diet adjourned sine die, without TAX
ing action on many important sche-
duled measures.
Authoritative political observers
believed, however, the resignation
was unlikely, although the cabinet
failed to obtain passage of several
important domestic bills, including
one providing control of the coun-
try's rice supply and another de-
signed to reduce pig iron duty.
Attacks on individual members of
the cabinet prompted the rumors of
blanket resignation.
