BY LOUIS f. KEEMLE
United Press Cable Editor.

Adolf Hitler complicated
the already tense European
situation today by making a
proposal almost certain to be
rejected in dignantly by
France and Belgium.
The latter demanded that Hitler
withdraw his troops from the
Rhlneland. He countered with a
government statement offering not
to send any more troops in, but to
retain the ones there as a symbol
OF German sovereignty, pending ne
gotiations.
II Hltler's proposals for negotiat-
ing a stable peace in Europe ara
rejected, the statement said. Ger
many will withdraw from the Eu-
ropean family of nations and isolate
herself.
Inc news created a highly I'M
favorable impression in London
where the powers are conferring
ana Britain is trying to persuade
france and Belgium to make ar
offer to Hitler which he might find
acceptable.
Peace Outlook Dim
Today's developments dimmed the
outlook for an early, peaceful set
tlement OF the dispute. If Britain
and France reject Hitler's offer and
put through League resolution
concerning Germany as an aq-
gressor. there is every prospect that
Hitler will refuse to return to the
League, cutting herself off from all
european negotiations.
That would create a sore SPOT in
europe which might take MANY
years to heal.
The prospect of military action
against Hitler in the present dispute
was sui not acute. 1t seemed more
IlKely, unless some form of COM
promise is reached, France and Bel
gum would bring about the con-
demnation of Hitler and press for
economic and financial sanctions by
their allies.

CAREFUL CUTTING
OF GREENS URGED
State Loses Valuable Mar
ket Because of Forest
Vandalism
Daily Dispatch Bureau,
In the Sir Walter Hotel.

Os
Raleigh, Dec 18-Unless North
the cutting of Christmas greens, It
will be a matter of only few years
before it will be necessary to import
from other sections the greater por-
ton of the supply, State Forester j.
S. Holmes warned today.
During recent years, great indus
try built on supplying holly and other
green's from this State to markets in
other parts of the country has de-
clined materially because of the stead
lily diminishing supply, the State for
ester pointed out. 4
Already the supply of some of the
more valuable Christmas trees and
decorations has almost entirely van
ished from some sections of the State
while in others they are becoming ex-
tremely scarce, necessitating a close
search and hauling for a considerable
distance, the State forester said.
Mr.. Holmes urged careful selection
of greens to be gathered and care in
cutting in order to assure future pro-
duction and the least damage to the
tree or plant.
In cutting Christmas trees and
greens, using such popular growth as
holly, cedar, pine, hemlock, and spruce
Mr. Holmes suggested that the policy
Of thinning the thicker stands, instead
of taking the last tree. Leaving of
a stand of trees will provide source
of continuous supply he advised.
The forester also urged observance
of the law, which makes the cutting
: of any form of growth within 100
yards of a public highway without
permission of the owner a misdemean.
or He advises care and pruning
trees for decorations by not taking
more than 20 per cent of the leaf
surface and the protection of the
trunk of the tree
So thorough has been the depletion
of the supply of the more desirable
types of Christmas green's in some
parts of the country, Mr.. Holmes con-
tinues, as to open the way for the
cultivation of a supply. He suggests
consideration of this procedure in
North Carolina.

Dave COltraine, former limestone fer.
tiliZer salesman who acted as SCOTS
unofficial campaign manager before
the Democratic primary and took him
many hundreds of miles over the
State during the campaign in his car.
Those in a position to know maintain
that Scott offered Coltrane the job
now held by Miller during the con-
vention of the State Grange here last
week.
But the reaction % the firing of
DR.. Lei.y was so unfavorable that a
group of SCOTS supporters and adj
visers met with him here Tuesday
morning of this week and virtually
forced him to agree to retain Miller.
1t is understood that some of these
were from the same faction at State
College which had urged him to fire
DR.. Leiby. 1t is now generally con-
coded that the firing of DR.. Leiby can
be traced directly to the group of
State College alumni and professors
at State College~who supported Scott
against Commissioner w. A. Graham
in the primary, largely in the hope
and belief that he would Dust Leiby.

TODAY'S YESTERDAYS

$50 Years Ago Today-Karl Maria
Friedrich ERNEST Won Weber IVA
ber) was born in Eutin, Oldenburg.
His father, an ex-army officer had
foretold before the child was born
that it would be a boy and become
a great musician like Wolfgang Mo-
Fart, the husband of the elder Web
er's niece. The forecast was correct
though in his youth Karl was more
interested in TYPOGRAPHY, which he
helped it's inventor, Alloys Senefelder,
develop. Nevertheless he composed
an opera before he was IA, conducted
the greatest German orchestras be-
fore he was 18; and was both famous
and infamous before he was 25, for
he was banished from his home town
for embezzlement. But his Der Freis
chutz, first great German romantic
opera, Oberon, Furyanthe made home
towners glad to forget Weber's Jail
career.
Dec. 10, 1787-As New Jersey rati-
fled the federal Constitution and
thereby became the third State, for
the first time it became legal in the
U. S. for women to vote. The New
Jersey State constitution enfranchis-
ed women; it was the first colony or
State to do so.
1t was also the first political unit
in the world to revoke women's suff-
rage: it repealed this clause of the
constitution. in 1905, the electorate
having decided equal rights were a
failure!
20 Years Ago Today-The World
War: In note dated Dec. 10, 1916,
but not made public in the U. S. until
Dec. 20, President Wilson invited all
of the belligerents in the European
war to announce the terms upon
which peace might be concluded
They had accepted the role preferred
by the German government, in pro-
posing peace negotiations with the
U. S. government as intermediary.
