BY MILTON A. BOSLEY, OWN.
The Chihuahua is purely Mexi-
can in origin. It derives its name
from the Mexican State Of which
it is a native.
The smallest Of all breeds, I
find this midget of the canine
family becoming more and more
popular in America. Seldom
weighing over a pound or two, he
is a sturdy dog for his ounces of
weight. He is game for his size,
modest, lovable and a great mis-
chief-maker. Those Of ordinary
size can be carried in his masters
coat pocket or his mistress purse.
Although a toy dog, he delights
to hunt field mice and Vermin
which are his prey.
There are two varieties of chi
huahua, the short and long haired.
The short-haired is the original
true chihuahua, developed to a
certain extent by the Mexican In
dams and is best known in the
United States. I believe the long
haired variety, due to it's unusual
beauty, is slowly but surely g&in-
ing favor and will soon give his
short-haired brother something to
think about. Both varieties have
made much Roadway in the past
few years and other breeds in the
toy list should watch that he does
not overshadow them in popu-
larity.
In general appearance he should
be alert. graceful, and fast moving
with a saucy expression somewhat
like the terrier. His head should
be almost round with a slightly
pointed, short nose that is either
pink or black, depending on the
color of his coat. Any solid,
marked or splashed color is per.
Missile and the coat should be
oc q smooth, glossy texture. Eyes
should be full but not protruding
and set well apart with ears pro-
portionately large as to the size
Of the body. The neck should be
slightly arched, sloping gracefully
into lean shoulders which should
be well up and showing balance
and soundneSS. This tends to give
the desired look of strength to the
forequarters. His headquarters,
too, should be both muscular and
sturdy with hooks set well apart.
The tail may be carried either up
or down and should be q natural
bob and never cropped. Although
the less he weighs the better he is
for show purposes, 1t IS permissible
that be weigh as much as six
pounds. One to four is average
weight.

For a company to obtain
licenses for cabs, which would
benefit it if the legislation should
be approved, the licenses would
have to be taken out in the name
Of the company.
The company then would have
to obtain drivers on a commits

been virtually abandoned in the
cab industry.

FIGHTS
CANAL AREA
BUILDING

SILVER SPRING, Md, April
16.-Whether rebuilding will be
permitted on property Of the G.
& o. Canal Company in Mont
gomery county, in cases where
homes were destroyed during the
recent flood, will be decided dur
ing o meeting Of the Maryland
National Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission in Washington
tomorrow.
A ruling by Walter w. Dawson,
counsel to the commission, de-
clared park officials could not
legally continue to deny approval
Of applications for building per-
mits for this area on the grounds
they have advanced in the past.
Applications for building per-
mitS from residents Of this area
wishing to rebuild homes, have
been denied approval by park Of
ficials on the ground that they
did not comply with coming regu-
lations, inasmuch as proposed
dwellings would not face on a
paved street or main thorough.
fare. This applied only to areas
which have been subdivided, Mr..
Dawson ruled.
Property Tax Exempt
Lacy Shaw, former president Of
the Montgomery county board of
commissioners and present county
park commissioner, said today
that in spite Of Mr.. Davison's rul-
ing the county commissioners
want to halt further construction
on this property and are hoping
his commission win uphold them.
Since this property, owned by
the canal company and located
between the canal and the Po-
tomac River where it is flooded
every time the river gets out of
its banks, is tax exempt, the
county commissioners say they
want to halt further construction,
because the county derives very
little revenue from the residents,
who need assistance every time
there is q flood and demand po-
lice protection, streets, roads, etc.,
the same as those residents who
pay large personal and real estate
taxes.
The theory that the park COM
mission could deny approval Of
permits on the ground that they
do not conform to sanitary and
health regulations, is also out,
Mr.. Shaw said, as these applicants
have signified their desire to have
county sanitary inspectors super
wise installation Of sanitary facil-
tiles.
New Grounds Sought
Mr.. Shaw said he did not see
how the park commission could
continue to deny approval Of these
applications, about Is in number,
unless new grounds are found inn
mediately.
When the applications were
first filed with e. j. Gray, county
building inspector, the county
commissioners issued q ruling that
no permits should be issued for
structures costing less than $500
unless they were to be erected on
property owned by the person max
ing application.
Officials Of the canal company
Immediately said they were willing
to endorse applications for q
majority Of the applicants. When
the commissioners intimated they
would take more drastic steps to
halt construction, counsel for the
canal company notified them their
clients would fight in court if nee
esSary any attempt Of county
authorities to tell them what they
could do with the property.

Have Wide Choice

RICHMOND, Va. April 16.
Virginia voters at Edinburg will
be handed blank ballots when
they go to the polls in June.
They won't be surprised. how
ever. They are used to ballots
with no names on them.
The town is unique in Virginia,
in that for years no candidates
have filed for municipal offices.
The county electoral board
simply furnishes Edinburg
voters with a blank ballot, and
the voters write in their choices.

LEAGUE GIVEN
DUCE'S TERMS

ROME, Sept. 9 G.N.SO-Italy
is ready to reassume full coopera-
ton with the League Of Nations,
provided Ethiopia is dropped as a
member nation and the principle
Of sanctions is abandoned.
Premier Mussolini delivered this
ultimatum today to Joseph Avenol,
secretary.general of the League,
through II Duce's son.in.law and
foreign minister, Count Galeazzo
Ciano.
Avenol, it was asserted in 1tal.
ian circles, promised that France,
at least, would support the expul-
sion Of Ethiopia, on the juridiciai
ground that no legal government
Of an independent Abyssinia now
exists.
While France is trying to bring
italy back into the fold, much
significance is attached to the
presence in Venice of Gen. Ed
ward Rydz.Smigly, Marshal Pill
sudski's heir" as virtual dictator
of Poland.
General Rydz-Smigly, who came
to Venice direct from a week Of
military inspection in Paris, dur.
ing which the Franco-Polish ALI.
ance was busted off, conferred
with Joseph Bastianini, Italian
undersecretary or foreign affairs,
and former Ambassador to Pc.
land.
Their meeting, repeatedly at the
instance of France, is said to be
based on the hope of extending
the French and East-Central Eu-
rope bloc to italy.

POWERS STUDY
SPANISH WAR

LONDON, Sept. 5 G.N.SO.
Without a Portuguese representa-
tive, leaving a vast loophole
through which arms can be
shipped to Spain, delegates Of %
European nations met here today
as a commission to prevent out
side interference in the Spanish
civil war and to prevent spread
of the conflict outside Spain.
The session, of immense impor-
lance to the tranquility of Europe,
was held in private in the British
foreign office.
Although there remained the
possibility that Portugal may send
an observer, lack of Portuguese
representation on the control COM
mittee led to fears that its work
may be largely Intellectual
After a Commute session. the
committee issued a brief commu-
nique in which it was stated the
powers represented had been re-
quested to furnish all particulars
of their nonintervention legisla-
ton and other steps taken to
localize the crisis in Spain.
