GWORN to maintain the status G quo in Central Europe and to work toward preservation of gen- egal European peace, the Little Entente today is one of the most vital factors in post-war affairs abroad.
 It is composed of three nations, 'T5,goslavia, Rumania and Czecho- slovakia. All three emerged as vic- sors from the World War. They emerged in their new form partly by division of the old Austro- Hum garian monarchy and they gained an immense increase of territory.
 As a new symbol of their unity, each of the three nations has is- sued stamps of the Little Entente, There are no casual designs on these stamps. Each country has elected to portray that building held most sacred as a national shrine. Beneath each picture are three linked circles, representing the unity of the nations.
 Portrayed on the Rumanian stamp is the great cathedral Curtea de Arges. near Bucharest. It's history dates from the 18th century when it was built by Ba- sarab, the reigning prince. Typi- cal of the Orthodox Eastern church, its architecture is square with four

Former Governor Declares
President Is Passing Buck
by vacationing.
BY the Associated Press.

TOPEKA, Kans. Dec. 4.-Former
Gov. ALI M. Landon told banquet Of
Young Republicans tonight every one
is dizzy not only with the political con-
fusion, but with the economic con-
fusion" in the Roosevelt administra-
ton.
Addressing the banquet briefly, the
former Republican presidential NOM
inee, said that by going on another
vacation at another critical time" !"
President Roosevelt lis passing the
buck Of explaining and correcting the
mistakes to the other fellows, and
apparently is also trying to establish
his own alibi"
For five years." Landon said, "the
President has insisted that we must
do this and that. shifting from one
plan to another 50 often that no one
knows what to expect next.
Much effort was directed by the
administration leadership contrary to
the recognized ways of our representa-
tive government. but even more i'm
portant, contrary to economic laws.
To-day, primarily because Of this
misdirected effort We are in a period
Of economic relapse and increasing un-
employment. But this is no time to
say I told you so.' We must COOP
crate.
There is now heart breaking
amount Of unemployment. This win
ter. there will be no end of suffering
by those who cannot find work. Many
people will be asking: When do we
get what We have been promised?' It
may be a cruel awakening to many"
However, Landon said, there is one
encouraging sign in the recent turn
OF national affairs.
THE President, as well As Congress,
IS showing some inclination to listen
to suggestions. This tendency should
help to avoid further pitfalls and Is to
be commended
