arnO pact. Meanwhile she makes an in
teresting suggestion.
The world sits tense and Mars. god of
war, draws the sword from the scabbard
Germany sends troops into the Rhine
land zone, the one thing which absolutely
must not be done on terms of the Locar-
no treaty. France, England. and the
League-in fact the whole world Stares
aghast. With the Russian-JapaneSe ten
sion and the Ethiopian situation coming
TO head, one wonders what can happen
next to further strain world peace condi-
tons
1t is, however, interesting to note
Germany's case. And also interesting to
note her craftsmanship as presented by
Adolph Hitler Too early as yet to decide
whether he is offering other nations and
the League package, time will be we'll
spent in considering his diplomatic and
courageous proposal which was issued
simultaneously with the movement of
troops in formidable fashion.
In a nutshell, Hitler says this: For
eighteen years Germany has been throt-
tied. That has been punishment enough
Now let Germany grow back to normal
healthiness. In return, Germany will sign
an agreement with neighboring nations
whereby no country may wage war with
out all the rest jumping on it, That guar
antees peace for % years, whereas under
present conditions, war is liable to burst
forth at any moment from any source.
This pact Hitler says, will effect
union to oppose Russia's spread of COM
munism which the other nations fear
more than they fear Germany's revival
of strength. By returning to the League,
the League is restrengthened. By ending
the Locarno pact, Germany says France
has long since ended it by, herself, COM
pletely disregarding it.
Whether the suggestion is right or
wrong, it is worthy of consideration
And after ALL what can the League ma
tions. do about the arming of the Rhine
land without starting another immediate
world war?
All in all, there is much to think
about in what Germany says.

WORLD is GETTING COLDER

Scientists have found that the eli
mate of the world is gradually
growing colder. Even those who are
not scientists, after passing through
this winter, agree with them.
During the first 5000 years of post
glacial time the climate gradually
warmed up. Then for long time,
approximately $4,000 years it re-
manned quite warm. Finally during
the last 5000 years the indications
are that it has been getting steadily
colder. Although within the history
of many there is little to indicate
change, we do believe that the
weather in Iceland was more con
genial when it was settled by the
Vikings in 900 A. D. than it is now
and that the grape vine does not
now grow as far north as it then did.
Thus the indications are that we are
living in a period in which the eli
mate is gradually growing colder.

House Committee
Recommends 1000
Military Airplanes

Describing equipment of the army
air corps as "impotent'' and "inade-
quate," the House military commit
tee Tuesday unanimously recon-
mended to Congress the building up
of a fleet of 1000 military airplanes.
"Our nation is no longer protect
ed from attacks because of the wide
extent of the Atlantic and Pacific
oceans, and we must govern our
selves accordingly" declared a state
ment by Representative Rogers, New
Hampshire Democrat, chairman of
the military aviation subcommittee,
embodied in the report presented to
Congress.
The first and most potent reason
for the early enactment of this bill
to Increase our army air force to a
figure not exceeding 1000 planes, is
the fact it is necessary for adequate
national defense.
Cali great nations now have huge
airplane carries, which are in fact
floating landing fields, to enable
them to carry aerial warfare to enc
my shores"

Ohio River Drives
Many from Homes

Flooded from Pittsburgh to The
Mississippi, the Ohio river Sunday
crept over roads, menaced factories
and warned bottom land jewellers
that moving time had come again.
Some hundreds, in Ohio, Kentuc-
ky, Indiana and Illinois, moved out
as usual ahead of the water which
flowed upon the lowlands. The up
per river fell. Below Louisville the
rise continued slowly.
River shipping companies SUI
spended operations when the tide
came over the docks and tracks.
Five Kentucky highways were un-
der water in part. Motorists detour-
ed. The state highway department
stationed truck on the Cincinnati
Louisville road to pull cars out when
stalled.
Near Henderson, KY, some thou
sand acres of bottoms were under
water. The river was rising 8 in "a
hours. The Evansville (Ind.) wealth
er bureau station, few miles away,
predicted 4.5 crest by Tuesday.
The Red Cross had 20 applications
for help. James Ellis, of Owensboro,
KY, asked officials for help in safe
guarding Dade Park race track,
across the river from Henderson,
where he said the levee would not
stop over As feet of water. The level
today was 44.2.
Three one-room schools in the
Henderson area were closed because
the roads were inundated at dam SO.

Nudist Leader in
Need of Secretary

FORT MYERS, Fla, March 29.-
Pretty, brunette Florence Fritz, first
applicant for the job of stenographer
for Tampa nudist society, told her
prospective boss she ''could not con-
ceive of an intelligent secretary, in
the nude, working on a typewriter"
She added, however, II am open
to conviction.
Declaring in her letter she was
maintaining an open mind on mud
ism, the tall, comedy business wom-
an wrote to the leader of the Ameri-
can Gymnosophical society as fol-
lows:
"Dear Brother Shosokin, note
you are advertising for secretary
and have had difficulty in finding
one. I know nothing about nudism
and its aims and cannot say whether
I would join but am interested and
open to conviction. I am an expert
stenographer and secretary and once
served as principal of successful
Atlanta business school,.
"I should like to know if it is
mandatory upon the members to GO
in the nude, as I cannot conceive OF
an intelligent secretary, in the nude
working on typewriter, but I am
open to conviction and shall await
your answer.

BOOK WEEK is OBSERVED
AT THE HIGH SCHOOL

How are you dressing for school,
Friday - as Napoleon, Robinson
Crusoe or Jack Spratta" This is a
likely question among the boys this
week and the girls are asking
equally queer questions. Teachers
are complaining because they must
orally portray how Betsy Ross, JUL
let or Goldilocks probably appeared
in their day. No, nothing is wrong,
and it isn't party. 1t is Book Week
all over the nation. To renew ac-
quaintance with old friends of the
written page and to meet new ones
the students are appearing at school
all day Friday dressed in charact-
er parts. According to Miss Hazel
Burdett, school librarian, a prize of
a book will be given to both a boy
and girl whom judges decide are
best equipped to portray the indi-
vidual chosen, whether from poetry,
drama, fiction or biography. A pro-
gram under the direction of Miss
Burdett is being given for both
Junior and Senior high school stu
dents, part of which will be made up
of tableauX given by the various
clubs of the schools. There will also
be a book prize given to the club
who best represents scene from
some well-known book or story. To
make it all more interesting, post
ers and displays in the hall and
library show new shipment of
books received the last few days.
Miss Burdett states that more books
will be received later which shows
that the library is developing rap
idly and with some new equipment
being installed this department will
add much to the convenience of the
students. ...-
