para que vaya a almorzar.
Ahora que salga la una
me la saco de su casa,

BLANCA FLOR

iango Argenuno)
Musica de ERNESTO LECUONA
etra de C. SANCHEZ GALARRACA
Aquella moza es la moza,
que nunca sup de amor,
asi dicen en- ell pueblo,
cuando pasa Blanca Flor.
Pero mientras las vecinas
juran tai a media voz,
I'll tiene un guardapelo
muy cerca del c~orazon.
Una noche entire un ramaje,
con %angustia, con passion,
alguien 10 puso en- sus manos,
alguien 10 puso y hugo.
Ella 10 estrecho temblando,
sollozando 10 beso,
y acaso dijo entire lsgrimas,
iAmor impossible! iadios!
Despues cerro su ventana,
y cerrada la beso,
la plata azul de la luna,
y ell orc rojo del sol.
Por entire sus hierros nunc~
volvio a enredarse una flor
nj Sc poso en- sus rosas
ell ala de una cancion.
Y sin embargo, aun murmursn,
euando pasa Blanca Flor,
aquella moxa es la moxa.
que nunca supo de amor.

HOG PRICES
RULE STRONG
Fairly Generous Supply Of Hogs Sell
at Strong Prices, Top S9.45; Cattle
Numbers Increase, Trade Slow
Around Steady; Lambs Receive CSC
Lower Bids.

South ST. Paul, Mimi. Dec. 9. 1885
u. S. D. Al: Hogs showed some
strength on this weeks opening, bet
ter 14O to 200 pound weights making
$40 to- s9.45, 200 to $50 pounds 1925
to $40. heavier weights $500 to
1925, most good sows $50 to $3.50,
a few $3.50, and desirable feeding
pigs $1,000 to $1,000.
Most classes of cattle found slow
outlet today, but prices showed little
change. Common to medium slaugh-
ter steers and yearlings brought $3.50
to $3.50, best short-feds up to $500,

turned at $500 to $3.50. and fat ewes

to offer Mussolini two very consider
able slices of Ethiopia if he would
stop his war and if he would also
give that country direct access to the
sea through the Italian colony of Fri
trea.
To the Bitter End.
Even while Sir Samuel and Laval
we're in conference, Mussolini in
new speech before the puppet parlla-
ment of his country Numbered his
defiance; he was prepared to fight this
war to the bitter end, and he wasn't
bit afraid of sanctions threats by a
bunch of nations who had failed TO
understand that he was carrying on
the name of civilization and justice.
AS Mussolini assembled the rostrum
he had Just received dispatches from
Ethiopia to the effect that fleet OF
his powerful military airplanes-ln

of Dessye, present headquarters or

bombed even a hospital plainly
marked with the Red Cross. Quite
evidently the brave Italians had hoped
to kill the emperor, for when they
gathered that he had escaped, they
came back for another bombing visit
the following day.
Thus the banner of Italian civil
cation and justice to which MussOlinl
so feelingly refers, is raised in Eth
opia.
Doing Nothing.
No glory descends upon the League
of Nations as result of its handling
of this crisis; the League failed mis-
erably in its attempts to prevent the
war. 1t needed not fail, but it did
and don't forget. please, that back OF
much of the League inactivity one
may perceive an important piece o
paper, the secret treaty of 1906 by
which Great Britain. France anC
Italy agreed to divide Ethiopia into
spheres of interest when the psy
Geological moment dawned. The i'm
portanee of this document is not ye
plainly apparent-but is there, jus
the same.
Likewise, after the war had started
it could have been stopped befor,
it got well under way-if the League
had earnestly wanted to stop it. In
stead of stepping in with immediat,
and complete sanctions against Italy
Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1935-12-12

the League sat back. applied a few
sanctions but failed to do anything
about some of the products which are
most essential to the Italian war in
Africa, namely, oil, coal, iron and
steel. A practical result of this let
ting bad enough alone is that Italy
is still able to import all it needs
for its continued war.
Certainly the League in this case
cannot swell with pride-and the
great powers which really determine
the policy of the League, have but
little reason to feel proud, individu-
ally. The job has been bungled.
Naval Conference.
And what is enc to think about
some Of these great powers now rep
resented at a new naval conference
in London? Monday the conference
started for the purpose of taking
steps to renew the sOcalled naval dis
armament treaties of 1922 and 1920.
Up to the very last minute before the
opening session there was general
agreement that the conference would
be able to accomplish nothing. In ev-
cry report from London the word pes
simism occurs in this connection.
One might ask then: Why the con-
ference?
There is a maze of conflicting de-
mands: Great Britain insists On pos
sessing as heretofore the greatest ma
Wy in the world; the United States is
not in mood to have navy inferior
to that of the British; France de-
mands navy as large as those OF
Italy and Germany combined, and is
unwilling to sign agreements extend

time; Italy demands a navy of the
same size as Frances, and Japar

Mothers Outnumber Dads at SCHOOL,

The open house" program at the
school Tuesday afternoon was nicely
responded to by the parents. This
was intended principally for the
grades one through six and it was
mainly the parents of the children
in these grades who came for a visit.
About 35 per cent Of the parents who
have children in these grades were
registered as visitors during the aft
ernoon. The regular routine of work
was carried on by the various teach
ers so the parents could gain slight
understanding of the daily work. The
object of the open house" program
was to get the parents into the school
so they would feel more free to come
for future visits. The afternoon ter
minated with the serving of coffee
and lunch by the teachers. In look
ing over the register of visitors it
was very noticeable that the mothers
take all the honors as they were in
the majority at the rate OF eight
to one.

red to: we are seeing every day In
Ethiopia with what amazing ease the
League of Nations covenant is being
violated; we are witnessing the
Leagues own feeble and futile at
tempts to enforce that covenant; we
see before us from day to day solemn
agreements to reduce navles result
ing in ever increasing navies, and we
also are becoming disillusioned about
the effectiveness of the Briand-kel-
logg treaty against war-whlch so
far has not prevented any war; finally
we realize that the Nine-Power
treaty of 1922 which, among other
things, guaranteed the territorial in
tegrity, the political independence or
China, is being ignored by Japan
one of the signers.
The Japanese government, backed by
threatening mass of soldiers just
outside the Great Wall of China, is
continuing its efforts to swallow up
five North Chinese provinces, convert
them into one socalled Independent
republic-and place the actual ad-
IuluISlTdtlOu III Tic VI IHC oU-
thorities at Tokyo.
Great Britain has discreetly limited
to Japan that it might be wise not
to be too aggressive; the United
States-also, as is Great Britain
| signer of the Nine-Power treaty, gent
ly asks whether or not that treaty is
in danger of becoming violated by the
Japanese attitude.
Japan replies, just as discreetly.
! just as gently, that most certainly no
treaty, protecting China, is being vio-
lated, but that Japan, for the sake of
saving the Chinese themselves, really
must take over the five provinces
1t is all for the benefit of the Chi
nese-a wholly unselfish policy on
the part of Japan.
Helplessly, China seems about to
acquiesce. Helplessly, the rest of the
world looks on.
Treaties? International agree
ments? Solemn promises? Sworn
pledges? What do they amount to-
anyhow?
