we're in the land of the planters, and
if we kept going, bearing North, to-
morrow we'd be among the farmers.
The so-called gentleman farmer, as
we know him back East, doesn't
flourish anywhere down here. There
are show places plenty along this
Louisiana Coast, but they weren't built
for show places-they were built for
homes.
Once I tried being gentleman
farmer-a costly experiment. But the
reason why I quit was that discov-
cred was ceasing to be a gentleman
and could never become farmer.
But down here, among these real
producers, I'm filled with pride in
my country and hope for the future,
politics, or no politics. The good
earth still is here and the crops keep

PARIS, February 3.-French au-
thorities pursued negotiations with
Balkan rulers and statesmen today,
authoritative sources said, in an at
tempt to raise a wall against any
German expansion in Eastern Europe.
A welding of stronger ties with
Balkan nations and establishment
of their economic equilibrium through
French, British and Russian trade
concessions were reported to be
Frances major objectives.
A blocking of the campaign for
restoration of the Hapsburgs, lest it
benefit Germany by creating dis
orders and possibly splitting the Lit
tie Entente (Czechoslovakia, Yugo-
slavia and Rumania) also was said to
be part of the plan.
Flandin States Conferences.
Foreign Minister Flandin, taking
the leading part for France in the
negotiations with the Balkan repre-
sentatives, arranged to confer with
the regent. Prince Paul, of Yusoslavia;
Hungarian Foreign Minister Won
Kanya, Austrian Vice Chancellor
Prince Won Starhemberg and Turkish
Foreign Minister Tewfik Rustu Aras,
and to continue his talks with King
Boris of Bulgaria and King Carol Of
Rumania.
Prince Won Starhemberg arrived
from London last night and went
Immediately to the Paris hotel where
former Empress Zita of Austria was
reported to be staying.
Diplomats said the vice chancellor
agreed to tell Zita an Austrian en-
thronement of Archduke Otto of Haps-
burg was "indefinitely postponed" after
France, Britain and Russia joined the
Little Entente in demanding rejection
of plans for Hapsburg restoration as
the price for their support of Austrian
independence.
Central European diplomats said
Vienna discarded the plan for Haps-
burg restoration also because of Aus
trian fears that Premier Mussolini was
bargaining for the support of Reichs-
fuehrer Adolf Hitler, with Austria as
the stake
Carol Opposes Nazis.
Another development was dis
closure that King Carol promised
F1andin that Rumania would stand
firmly against any Nazi advances.
A French British Russian agree
ment to compensate Bucharest for any
trade losses caused by application of
sanctions against Italy aroused fur
ther reports of Rumanian assurance
that nation would sign mutual as
sistance pact with Russia.
The arrival of King Boris and his
first talk with Flandin were inter-
preted by informed sources as fur
ther step in an attempt by France,
Britain and Russia to solve problems
Of European security without Italy.
These sources said Bulgaria, despite
Its attachments to Italy, would be
asked to cooperate with the Little and
Balkan Ententes in return for trade
concessions. The same offer was eX-
pected to be held forth to Hungary.
