ably this. week, the preparation Of
estimates for the support OF the
Guard for the coming fiscal year.
Notice was received from the Dis
trict Commissioners during the week
that the estimates must be in their
hands not later than August SO
that they might be co-ordinated with
the other District estimates.
It was said at the Guard head
quarters that IT was not known at
CHS time whether any increases
would be asked at this time. There
IL one feature in which the enlisted
men are considerably interested and
that Is the extra compensation which
they are supposed to receive for their
time in camp, payment which was
cut of during the governmental econ
omy activities. Prior to that time
each enlisted men, in addition to the
payment he receives at the Regular
Army rate received $1.25 a day for
each day in camp. This money was
given to compensate the men for any
money they might lose from being
away from their regular employment
without compensation.
There are many members Of the
Guard who enlisted with this money
In view, and was considered sort of
contractural relation.
Just prior to The departure Of the
Coast Artillery for It's annual enCamp-

Slight Cut For
Belga Value Seen
New Belgian Premier for
Managed Currency"

BRUSSELS. March 26. (UP)
Slight devaluation of the hclga
was seen possible last night after
announcement by Prime Minister
Paul Van iceland that he had
formed a coalition cabinet. with
Socialists, Catholics and Liberals
represented.
Leading financiers believe Van
iceland will do his utmost to keep
Belgium on the gold standard and
retain the solidarity of the Euro
pean gold bloc.
However. he is known as an
ardent admirer of President
Roosevelt's managed currency
plan, and if forces against him
prove too strong he may agree
to slight devaluation of the bel
ga.
The belga Belgian france is
expected to strengthen somewhat
on today's exchange dealings
against the dollar and pound ster-
ling, after a slump today, with
the dollar also approaching
against the English pound.
One of Van Zeelands chief
problems in his new ministry will
be protecting the belga from be-
ing undermined and keeping Bel
pium on the gold standard.

WASHINGTON, March &c.
(UP)-President Roosevelt, who
cancelled his plans for a ten-day
vacation trip when his friend and
secretary, Louis M. Howe, became
critically i'll, was advised by ply
sicians today that the crisis in
Howe's illness had passed. He left
shortly after II o'clock last night
for a cruise in Florida waters.
He proceeded by train to Jack
sonville, Fla, where he was to
board the destroyer Farragut late
today. The Farragut will take
him southwark to meet Vincent
Astor's yacht Nourmahal, to which
he and his party will be transfer
red.
Once aboard the Nourmahal the
president will relax from cares of
state and enjoy one of his favor
tie sports-fishing. For the next
few days, however, he has arrang-
ed his itinerary so that he will
be within an hours sailing dis
lance of the Florida coast. He
does not expect to return until
April 10 unless Howe becomes
worse.
Mr.. Roosevelt will be accom-
panied by the friends who have
accompanied him on similar trips
in the past, including Vincent As
tor, DR.. Leslie Heiter of Mobile,
Ala. Rhinelander Stewart Of New
York, George st. George of Tux
edo, N. Y, and Kermit Roosevelt
of New York.
In preparation for the trip the
president spent Monday afternoon
clearing away administration bus
mess. Congressional leaders as
sured him no pressing legislative
problems would arise during the
next two weeks. ;.
Mr.. Roosevelt made his plans
after Commander Ross !. Mcln-
tire, White House physician, call

extremely critical for a week ana
his life was despaired of, but TINS
morning he was so much better
he called for a cigaret.
While the physicians were
somewhat pessimistic about the
ultimate result of Howe's br0n-
chial disorder, complicated by
heart disease and pleurisy, they
found that in the last 48 hours
his heart had begun "to handle
the load" again. They saw indica-

FRANCE FEARS LOSS
OF BRITISH AIR PACT

PARIS, March 26.-(UP).-
French distrust of the British

here in the fear that Germany
will win Britain from France
aid by the offer of a Western
European aerial treaty. The claim

the new British-French entente.
BERLIN, March 26.-(UP).--
Reichleander Adolph Hitler's hand
was strengthened in negotiations
with Sir John Simon today by
news that four Germans of Me-
mel territory had been sentenced
to death and S3 others sentenced
to prison. Hitler said the Memel
situation is one of the German
reasons for hating the war trea-
ties.
Memel was taken from Ger
many after the war and given to
Lithuania. The population is
largely German and the oppres-
sion is intolerable.
1t was hoped that negotiators
would find a basis for an agree
ment leading to a general Euro
pean pacification. The Germans
sentenced in Memel were alleged
to he tried for treason.
One thousand mon aryan"
newspapermen throughout the
country are to be struck from

resurgence of anti-Semetism here.
The British German peace par
ley last night was feared heading
toward q snag over military
clauses Of the proposed Eastern
European security pact and mu-
tual armed assistance against an
aggressor nation.
Reliable authority said Reichs-
fuehrer Adolf Hitler hopes to
save the British statesmen-Sir
John Simon, foreign secretary.
and Captain Anthony Eden, Lord
Privy Seal-from a fruitless mis-
sion but that in the initial ses-
sion with them he made it plain
he would refuse to join a mutual
security pact with military claus
es. This is one of the major
points in the British and French
proposals which Hitler was asked
to consider.
Hitler repeatedly told the Brit
ish he would compromise on a
consultative eastern pact" to
preserve peace. The British and
French maintain that the pact
must provide for mutual armed
aid. In this difference lies dam
ger to the success of the peace
mission.
