President will win. But nobody
knows. The returns aren't all
in as yet"
All Over House
Meanwhile the Presidents 49,
year-old mother, beaming with
pleasure, appeared to get all over
the great house at once and told
everyone:
81 haven't been worried a
bit. 1 just felt he was going
to be reelected. Franklin's been
q very good boy and 1 think

Newspapers Expand.

TWO newspapers that have been
pioneers and leaders in the field
OF radio broadcasting last week dis
closed the expansion OF their radio
activities.
The Kansas City Star, operator Of
WDAF, Kansas City, revealed that it
had purchased WREN, Lawrence,
Kans.. subject to approval of the Fed
eral Communications Commission, for
a sum of around 100000. The At
lanta Journal. operator of the 50,000-
watt WSB, Atlanta, has secured an
interest in the 500-watt WIFI, Ath-
ems, Ga, which has already secured
F. c. C. authority to move into At
lanta, and the station will be operated
under the same management as WSB.
The Atlanta stations chief owner Is
Norman X. Winston, New York. and
one of the stockholders also is Harold

While the mechanics of the various
methods OF radio production have

have to unlearn all they know and

Seeks New Control.

ECHOES Of the last political cam
paign. which was singularly free
from recriminations on the score of
unfairness in use of radio and which
ended with only one libel suit being
filed in Iowa, will be heard in the next
Congress. where the American Civil

nounced it will seek legislation fur
ther regulating the use of radio in
politics and public events.
The union made public. among
other proposals. four bills for which
it will seek action in Congress. One
would order the setting aside of pre-
scribed periods on the air for the
presentation of public issues. The sec
ond would guarantee fair treatment Of

This kiss is not given by the star
or her leading man, James Stewart.
1t is exchanged by two experts who,
according to scientific reports, spend
most of their lives kissing. They are
Miss and Mr. Osphormenus Trichop-
terus, alias Miss and Mr.. Gourami,
but to the layman they are just a
couple of kissing fish.
The finny osculators are the only
ones in America; pure white albinos,
three inches long. When they kiss
they look like two small mouthed
vases, set mouth to mouth. And ap-
propriately, their fins resemble
handles of a loving cup.
They come from India, and belong
to retired millionaire who values
them at $3.50.
A reproduction of the upper cor
ridor of the New York Aquarium
was built for the short scene i'll
which the Gouramis appear. On
their tank was data placard which
read "Osphormenus Trichopterus .
Kissing Gourami . . Habitat, India

Spends most of its life kissing as a
prelude to nuptials arrangements"
In spite of the glowing advance
notices, the fish turned coy when
they faced the camera. With dis
play of temperament unique even in
movie stars, they refused to kiss.

Cherry Blossoms
Are Retarded BY
Frost in Ground
Single Blossoms Unlike.
" to Sho,U Before at
Least T,rO Weeks.

If your Aunt Susie is coming down
from Bangor Me-, to see the cherry
trees in bloom around the Tidal
Basin, or Uncle Abner Is waiting word
in Grand Rapids, Mich. you'd better
write and tell them to tarry a while.
This, in effect, was the advice given
today by C. Marshall Finnan. super
intendent Of the National Capital
Parks. after he had conferred with
his horticultural chief, David Saunders.
Although the single blossom variety
has been known to bloom as early
as March 20-a week from today
Saunders shakes his head and says
he Is willing to bet his boots the
Oriental blooms won't be doing any
thing like that this year. There is
still frost in the ground, he said.
as Old Man Winter bit down as far
as two or three feet into the earth.
With the Tidal Basin filled with ice
for many weeks this past Winter,
this acted as a natural refrigerator
and kept the roots of the cherry
trees pretty frigid.
Saunders own personal preference
is to have the cherry trees in bloom at
Easter and this year Easter Sunday
falls on April IL.
After going into huddle today over
the cherry blossom situation, the park
authorities said that, unless Washing
ton has exceptionally warm weather,
it looks as if 1t will at least be two
weeks before the buds begin to show.

Failure to Register Under

Investigated.

At the request of the State Depart

Justice are investigating the failure
of approximately 80 manufacturers
and dealers in implements Of war" to
register under the Federal arms con-
troll law.
The inquiry is designed to establish
whether the firms in. question are
dealing in war materials encompassed

proclama ton of the President defining
"arms, ammunition and implements Of
war;"
Ignored Cummings Warning.
Grand jury proceedings will be in
stituted against any company found to
have violated the law.
The 80 firms failed to register after
a public warning by Secretary Hull
last December that names Of firms
presumed to have failed to comply
with the law" were to be turned over
to Attorney General Cummings for apa
propriate action. Identity Of the
firms was not disclosed.
Mo,e than 125 other concerns COM

officials said it is possible many oil
the firms ignored the law under the
belief they were not subject to its
terms. The investigation is expected
to settle this point to the satisfaction
Of Government authorities.
The law provides penalties Of i'm

years or fine up to $4,000, or both
on conviction of violation.
The weapons Of war" list pro-
claimed by the President includes

What bolshevism wants Is well
known to us. That we experienced

can tell me anything If the
other statesmen hitherto had no ex-
perience they can be congratulated"
"Once ." the waves of bolshevism

affairs. Other statesmen say: Tt will

be Moscow"
"In the rest Of the world today we
see instructions. plunderings and
strikes. Veritable nonsense has the
reins in hand and men are tearing
each other to pieces. 1t is a war of
all against all. Germany, however,
can only keep repeating-is an island
Of peace. We do not have to lead
people through Germany by a chain.
Let them come visit us. We invite
them"
"I understand that many an adver-
sary of ours looks upon war with
different eyes than we. We see it as
something terrible, not because we are
cowardly but because that is the
way war Is. They see in it something
beautiful, not because they are brave
but because 1t brought advantages
'''. Between them and ourselves
there is chasm which cannot be
bridged."
Germany has but one desire
namely, to do its work quietly. The
German people want nothing from
other peoples but want to be happy
according to their own liking"

to our people and to other peoples
that every hatred-l laden clash can only
bring small, slight and temporary

President Roosevelt reiterated today
he would seek new treaty with Can
ada for development of the st. Law

not expect to submit a pact to this
session of the Senate.
Asked at his regular press confer

that the waterways program might be
undertaken without formal ratification
of treaty, the President replied that
he had not thought of such a course
and that offhand he did not believe
such action would be taken.
He set no time for reopening nego-
tiationS with Canada, but in letter
tbs week to Senator Pittman, Demo-

crisis which some feared might lead
to strife.
The French position was outlined
authoritatively thus:
France believes it holds the trump
card at the Locarno table, since Britai1

permit France to be thrown more fully

support.
France Ready for Sanctions.
France Is willing to give Britain
sufficient time to prepare public opinion
at home for imposition of sanctions on
Germany. but is ready to proceed i'm
mediately itself in employing all sane
tionS possible-diplomatic, financial
and military-if necessary.
Authoritative sources said the Soviet
Foreign Commissar would recommend
to the League of Nations Council
session, called for tomorrow to de-
termine any action against the Third
Reich, that full sanctions-military as
well as economic-be invoked.

BY CONSTANTINE BROWN.

Military experts in Washington re-
fuse to be impressed by the statistical
strength of the eventual opponents OF
Germany.
While it is true that France and
her allies, Russia and the little en-
tente, have between 100000 and
100000 men ready to fight. and
many more millions in reserve, the
number of men alone cannot be de-
cisive in modern warfare.
Even if Germany were to fight alone
and this is by no means certain
she has the advantage of mobility.
France and Czechoslovakia are the
only nations which could invade Ger
many at once. Russia, Roumania and
YugoSlavia have no common frontiers
with the Reich. Poland cannot be
counted as a military ally of France.
despite the existing treaties.
Frances allies are sadly lacking in
efficient lines of communication. Like
in 1914. the Russian railways are not
adequate to transport large forces to-
ward Germany. even if the border
states were to allow them free passage
through their territories. Against this
cumbersome machinery of large forces
with inadequate lines of communica-
tions, the Germans have an extremely
mobile force.
For the last 10 months the Reich's
forces have been distributed to take
care of any emergency, wherever it
may occur. The German air force is
ready for attack and its main task
will be to take advantage Of the main
weakness of Frances allies-their
communications system.
In the event of war, Goering's air
armadas will endeavor from the first
day to smash up the concentration
points and the railroad communica-
tions of their opponents. This task
may cost Germany large proportion
of her aviation. But, according to
reliable reports. Germany has a much
greater capacity of replacing her
losses in the air than her potential
enemies.
For the time being it seems that
the key to the peace of Europe is still
held by Great Britain.
The British statesmen are loath to
engage in a new war adventure. Great
Britain has nothing to gain and every
thing to lose from it.
