placed on a certain word in the Ger
the word had been translated and
understood as a demand that the Hit
Ter proposals be dealt with immed-
lately, but the real sense was said to
be wish that the council would I'M
dertake to deal with these proposals
lin due time"
Following this little intermezzo,
steps were taken to leave the matter
in the hands of the court at The
Hague, provided adequate guarantees
were forthcoming to the effect that
Germany did not invade France and
Belgium pending the Hague court
decision.
Other Powers.
In the meantime, Hitler had been
busy delivering addresses at Karls-
ruhe and Munich where he declared
that his troops were in the Rhine
land to stay, and that the time was
past when Germany could be treated
like second-rate power or like a
Negro tribe"
Italy was trying to straddle the
fence, at the same time eager to keep
the friendship of France to prevent
further sanctions being applied to the
Roman government because of it's
Ethiopian war, and to repay Germany
for its kindness in not taking part
in any of the economic sanctions al
ready in force. Belgium lined up
with France, and SO did Czecho-Slo
aka, Roumania, Jugo-Slavia and Po-
land. But, one gathered the impress
sion that they were quite hesitant
about declaring themselves ready to
go to any extreme action, such as
for instance, military or other sane
lions against Germany.
AS the days went by, it became in.
creasingly clear that the German
troops would remain in the Rhine
land, and that no European war would
result from the present furry. But
the diplomats in responsible posts
keep their eyes open, for at a time
when tension is as great as now, any.
thing can happen-and happen with
out much warning.

INTERNATIONAL
NEWS REVIEW
CONTINUED from Page -

part in the meeting-at Paris-were
Great Britain, France, Italy and Bel
GUM, and on this occasion Eden once
more maintained that calm action
would be the most prudent; it would
not do to precipitate another Euro
pean war just because French pas
siOns were aroused.
France insisted on immediate and
drastic action: The Germans must
leave the Rhineland, and strong punt
tive sanctions must be imposed on
Germany by the League of Nations.
OF all the other powers, Russia
Frances new ally-was the only one
to pledge immediate and far-reaching
support; some of the others might be
willing, they said, but there was a
tendency to wait and see."
The Paris meeting having accom-
plished nothing very important, an
other conference was set for London,
and here the problem was once more
discussed, with the result that the
Locarno powers agreed that Germany
had, in fact, violated the treaty of
1926; as for further action, it was felt
the power of the League of Nations
should be invoked.
Flandin'S "J'accuSe."
Hastily a meeting of the League
council was summoned to London, and
here the French foreign minister,
Pierre-Etienne Flandin, opened the
case against Germany by charging
that the Hitler government had vio-
lated the Versailles and Locarno
treaties in spite of the fact that it
had been invited ten months ago to
express itself about the FrancO-Rus-
sian treaty then in the making; at
that time French arguments in favor
of the treaty had not been answered
by Germany. Flandin thought it a
very risky business to recognize the
right of an individual nation to multi
fly treaty just because it didn't hap
pen to like it, and he also made the
point that between an actual attack
territory there was but little differ
ence. The outstanding feature OF
Flandin's speech of accusation was
what he did not say, for-he did not
demand sanctions. Apparently Eng
lands velvet hand had secretly been
put to deft use, for Flandin did not
once even hint that his government
might demand sanctions applied
against Germany.
An Invitation.
Before the council meeting ended
it was agreed that Germany be in
vited to attend the next session, and
promptly a reply emanated from Ber-
lin: Why certainly-Germany would
gladly accept the invitation, but only
on two conditions; one was that Ger
many must be permitted to appear
as an equal of the other powers; the
second, that there must be willing
ness to take up the Hitler proposals
of March 7.
To the first there was no serious
objection, and it was at once indi-
Gated that Germany would appear not
as a defendant before a court but as
an equal of the other powers; as for
the second, however, France became
furious, and Flandin even threatened
to leave London and the League in
protest. Then it was explained that
an erroneous Interpretation had been

High School.

The seventh grade English class pu-
pills are the proud possessors of a new
set of text books entitled Prose and
are a decided improvement over the
old way of using separate pamphlets
for each unit. Prose and Poetry
Adventures contain all selections re-
quired for the English course. The
eighth grade students have received
an advanced set of English books SIM
liar to the seventh grade texts.
The senior high school girls are
conducting an intramural basketball
tournament. There are three teams
competing. They are the senior class
girls, the junior girls, and the sOph-
omore girls. The senior class team
is captained by Ellen Madsen, while
the sophomores are captained by AL
ma Christensen. The juniors nave
rot as yet chosen their captain. The
first round of the tournament was
played Wednesday afternoon between
the seniors and the sophomores. The
SophomoreS won by a II to score.
The sophomores will play the juniors
in the near future to determine the
championship.
Grades.
The fifth and sixth grade art clas-
ses are starting some raffia work.
They will make hot pads of many de-
signs. In the study of health these
pupils are making scrap books which
include pictures, poems and stories
concerning health. They also have
a bird chart on which they record
the date and kind of bird seen.
Last Wednesday the grades from
one to six assembled in the high
school study hall to hear something
about the purpose of Christmas seals
and to receive their rewards for sell
ling a large number of them last
Christmas. Mr.. Hoiberg explained to
them the value of seal selling and
how they benefit tubercular boys and
girls. He distributed the prizes
earned by each grade. The first and
second grades received an outseam
playground ball; the third and fourth,
a health ball. the fifth and sixth, a
health ball, bat and a refill for their
first aid kit. In this way they receive
some enjoyment and benefit from their
sales campaign and also help fight
tuberculosis.
Since it is soon spring time, Mr..
Hoiberg explained to these pupils the
necessity of letting the trees and
shrubs around the building grow I'M
molested. The schoolhouse and
grounds should have well kept APP
pearance, and this can be achieved
only by constant care and the CO.
operation of all students.
