PEACE TERMS

ScraPping Of Locarno
Treaty Is Supported
Bv Record Vote

BERLIN, March 80 G.N.S0.
Backed by an overwhelming "yes"
vote of 1919 per cent Of the citt'
zens who surged to polling places
in his plebiscite on the Rhineland
COUP, Reichsfuehrer Adolf Hitler
concentrated today on the "quar.
ter-century Of peace" proposals
that he will present to the powers
tomorrow. 49,,
He again may dramatize his
international dealings by summon
ing the newly-elected ReichStag to
hear his proffer simultaneously
with its delivery in the capitals OF
the Iocarno powers.
In the midst Of the patriotic re-
toicinR that continued unabated
throughout the Reich today, many
foreign observers feared that the
vast majority Of 44,411,911 votes
counted for Hitler over the SAB .026
that we're officially labelleo
against or invalid" would lead 70
a stiffening Of Germany's stand
against the western allies.
Record Majority
Described by Propaganda MIN
ister Paul Joseph Goebbels as the
greatest majority in history" "
Hitler's victory brought 44,964.SSI
voters to the polls-97.T5 per cent
of the 45,431, ,102 eligibles.
The blare Of scores OF bands
loud speakers, and shouting mem
bers Of Nazi organizations made
sure during the. early hours OF
Germany's first sunny spring day
that ali voters would be awake
and at the polls by / o'clock, the
deadline for voluntary voting.
By that time more than 80 per
cent of the eligible voters had
dropped their ballots into the
boxes, and from that time until
the polls closed at 6 p. m. storm
troops and Nazi officials checked
on l1on-voters and escorted" most
of them to the voting places.
While Goebbels officially an:
nounced that ali ballots that had
been marked mo" in the single
space opposite the name OF Hitler,
and all had been mutilated or left
blank were discarded a. invalid,
several foreign newspaper CORES
pondents said they had seen blank
ballots and even Sorie marked
otherwise than ''no" counted ,as
yes" votes. ~
Third Sweeping Victory
Several election officials in Ber-
lin and Frankfort were said, to
have openly admitted they had
been so instructed. ..
This was the third smashing VIC
tory Hitler has won in appeals to
the voters. In November. 1888,
he was given a 95 per cent vote Of
confidence on Germany's reSigna-
tion from the League Of Nations,
and in August, 1884, after the
death of President Won linden
berg, 89.1 per cent Of the voters
made him fuehrer by combining
the office Of president and
chancellor.
Sundays vote was for election
of q new Reichstag on the issue of
public approval of Hitler's remil-
itarization of the Rhineland and
scrapping of the Locarno pact
three weeks ago.
Although their names did not
appear on the ballot, a list OF 1895
Reichstag candidates was pre-
sented. Under the old voting sys-
TEN, each 10000 voters elects one
man to the Reichstag, so some 75O
deputies will have to be selected
by Nazi leaders from the list to
make up the new rubber stamp"

During the torrid months of July
and August lovely cool things are
being shown every day. Have
you seen the new muslin shirt
frocks? They come in all sorts of
delightful prints. Some have shir-
red yol1es and others the scalloped
collars. The dotted swiss frocks
are smart and youthful for these
very warm days.
Black is the ultra smart peoples
color. Shiny black and sheer black.
These two blacks combined for
dining and dancing in town. They
look so brilliantly black against
the pastel prettiness of summer
Black net has a choice over all
others, for it has the practical
virtue of GOODNESS, doesn't show
soil, doesn't require much care and
falls beautifully into the shirred
bodice lines that are the current
vogue. Spend your important
evenings in frocks like these.

Let Him Who Is
Without Sin

A well known magistrate, sit
ting in a divorce case, after re-
fusing a divorce and effecting
reconciliation between the husband
and wife, made the following very
applicable remarks:
Idle gossip has caused more mat
rimonial ships to go upon the
rocks than any other one thing.
Give the other party a break,
as it is sometimes called. Do not
condem without thinking what
you would like others to do if you
were in their place.
If we would keep our noses out
of other peoples matrimonial af-
fairs, there would be less divorces.
And another thing. Do not be
too sure your spouse is stepping
out" whenever you don't know ex-
actly where he or she happens to
be. Give them the benefit of the
doubt. And speaking of keeping
our noses out of the other fellows
business, if you know one who has
made an error against society and
has paid for that error, do not
continually remind him or others
of that mistake.
In this day and age one is often
prone to censor rather than to
help. Let a man once slip, and
too often we are willing to give
him a push just a little further.
There are many, many men in
public life today that made a mis-
take or two in their earlier days,
paid for that mistake, and today
are upright and respected citizens.
One slip does not ruin life any
more than "one swallow makes a
summer"
''BE CHARITABLE" to your
fellowman is a highly good. slogan
to paste in your hat.

"The largest transaction yet UNI

"The security and liquidity which
