BOOKMAKERS TO
 BE ALL LIECNSED

Springfield, H., June 24.-UP). Gov. Henry Horner was de- D, rted today to have determined to permit Chicago to undertake one of the most radical experiments in the history of American municipali- ties. Chicago wants to license all Of its bookmakers, making their busi- ness legal and adding some $l0,- 900. 1000 annually to the city treas- ury, although the Illinois constitu- ton specifically prohibits gambling.
 The legislature already has ap- proved q bill permitting cities with more than 500.000 population" to legalize bookmaking. Horner has withheld signature, but if he does not veto 1t by next Saturday 1t will become immediately effective any way. He was expected to permit 1t to become law in that way. issuing a statement at the same time saying he believed 1t "common-sense" but unconstitutional Chicago is esti- mated to have 5000 handbooks. If each operator pays a $2,000 annual license 1t would mean $l0,000, 900 in added revenues.

 2. Britain itself ignores the league when 1t likes-as in the German naval agreement. Italy can not be expected continually to sup port the league. even though 1t seeks peace, when policies adverse to her. such as the German naval agreement, are pursued.
 Powerful Italian Force
 Strength was lent to the new re- ports of Italy's demands by the na- ture and extent of its military preparations in it's colonies of Eritrea and Somaliland on the African east coast. Its army, sent at the cost of millions of dollars. is deadly force, perhaps the most modernized ever assembled. A compact. powerful unit equipped with every engine of destruction.
 As Eden and Mussolini met at 10 q. m. (4 q. m. EsT) in the Venice palace, it was reported that the British envoy bore an offer for Q peaceful solution of the Abyssinian quetsion.
 The terms have been mentioned before-cession of the Abyssinian province of ogden. bordering 1tai' ian Somaliland. to Italy. a grant to Italy of the right to build a rail. way connecting Somaliland on the south and Eritrea on the north. The colonies are separated, on the coast, by British and French Som. aliland. Right to build Q railway would give Italy a zone. which 1t could police. between the British and French territory and Abyssinia proper.

He has seen the nervous and mental cases gradually taken away to hospitals ln Massac chusetts and other states, he said, and 1t has been his un- derstanding that the Newington facility would be enlarge to care for meical cases.
