Disarmament to lounch
 Reormoment

,Disormoment to lounch Reormoment
 CIX years ago at this time 60
 nations looked back on their work of many months at Geneva and agreed that the world had made a long step toward peace. The World Conference for the Reduction and Limitation of Arr maments was not altogether suc- cessful, to be sure, but it had opened the way, they were con- fident, to rule by barley instead of force.
 The conference decided for one thing that aerial bombardment should be prohibited, eff certain conditions can be fulfilled" and to make this prohibition effective bombing aircraft should be abol- ished.
 It was decided to prohibit all forms of chemical warfare. At the same time the conference agreed that some sort of budge- tary limitation on armaments must be effected.
 So the delegates went home and the world breathed a bit easier. But instead of disarma- ment, humanity got rearmament, on a scale never known before. The plans so carefully laid in the sanctity of Geneva's halls of peace bore fruit in fleets of new aerial bombers, in myriad new devices of chemical warfare, in arms expansion that stretched the budgets of some governments until guns became the national goal ahead of bread.
 And today, even after Munich, the race goes on. Ironically enough only a mere "scrap of paper" recalls the Geneva con- ference now, the 1882 special "Peace" stamp issued by Switz- erland. It is shown above. Copyright. 1898. NEA Service. Inc.)

team, Dan would be obeying the strict schedule that kept him in such magnificent physical condi- ton and that allowed him no time for romance.
 Sally wondered, a bit wistfully, if in his dreams, perhaps, Dan might not think-just once = of her. For he had shown signs of thawing out, just & little, of liking her, just the least bit, during those early morn ing lessons. He had promised to give her last lesson tomorrow before she went away = perhaps never to see him again!
 "Why the big sigh?" Corey asked, bending closer. They sat close together in the old-fashioned cutter, under the big robe. The sleigh bells jingled pleasantly in the crisp night air, the horse trod lightly on the hard-picked snow. There was a moon, as Corey had promised. A big round silver one shimmering over this Silvery, eerie magical world.
 Because it's so beautiful" Sal- ly said. Because this is the last night. Because everything has to come to an end" Because her heart said, tomorrow will be the last morning shall get up to meet the dawn. And Dan.
 Corey gave the horses their heads, allowing the reins to lie in one hand. He threw his free arm over the back of the seat, around Sally's shoulder. His blue eyes looked down into hers. But it doesn't have to end," he said. Not for you and me, Sally. Not ever."
 This was the moment of Sally's biggest conquest. Her moment cf triumph. But why didn't her heart beat faster? Why did she wish this moment was not so close at hand?
 You know what I mean, Sal- ly." Corey'S voice was exceedingly earnest for him, for Corey always spoke gaily without seriousness. You're going to be my girl - for always. I'm crazy about you, Sal- ly. You're the first girl I ever really fell for like this. The swell est girl - the prettiest, the sweet est-I ever met"
 He took it for granted that any girl would be thrilled to hear him say that. That no girl could refuse to accept to be his. Wasn't he Corey Porter, who always got what he wanted? Wasn't Sally Blair, Queen of the carnival, meant just for him?
 He did not notice that Sally drew away a little, was silent too long. He bent even closer, his arm tightening around her shoul- der, his lips seeking hers.
 But Sally, after a kiss too brief, too f1eeting, turned away her head.
 It had not been too romantic. It had held no romance at all. That triumphant moment. It had proved to Sally that she could not be Corey's girl, no matter how sure he was, how right and fitting it might be.
 It had proved something to Sally that made her frightened and glad, sorry and ashamed. For Sally, for the first time in her glamorous, blithe existence, had stopped to look deeply into her own heart, to wonder and ques- ton what lay hidden there.

"Oh, Corey, I'm sorry," Sally said. And her voice was earnest, too, not light and gay. Terribly sorry. Truly I am. But I can't be your girl-ever." Because I am someone else's, her heart said. Someone who does not want me, who does not know that I am, who would not have me for his girl, if he did.
 Had the tables turned? Was Sally's heart to be broken? Sally, who had broken so many hearts before this, who had never cared, or taken anything earnestly before, with this mixture of singing glad- ness and frightened despair.

He got up after a restless night
and sent War Admiral a wire at
Churchill Downs, wishing him luck
and envying him the opportunity OF
running in that race-an oppor-
tunity he himself never had. When
the bugle blew to bring the horses
out on the track Man O. War prick
ed up his ears and raced with all
his old time speed to a radio which
he had had set up in the barn.
Another remarkable thing, ac-
cording to some of the stories, was
that while Man o. War was listen
ing to the radio he was, also, hoy
ering over Churchill Downs to in
spire his son to victory. At least
three observers described him quite
clearly as he galloped, wraith-like,
through the afternoon haze. Others
saw him, in spirit, at least, waiting
at the finish line to welcome his
offspring and to congratulate Jockey
Kurtsinger on his fine ride. He
was, in short, a very busy horse.
If Seabiscuit's legs heal in time
for him to meet War Admiral this
summer, you undoubtedly will read
some new descriptions of the actiV-
tiles of Man o War, and how he
ran the gamut of equine emotions
as his son and grandson battled
down the stretch for the name -and-
tail championship. Delight, affec-
ton, nervousness, and pride will be
cnly a few of the expressions that
will chase one another across his
finely chiseled face-his horse face
If the Admiral and the Biscuit
do eventually come to grips I GER
tainly would like to 20 20 Kentucky
and watch Man o Wars behavior
On second thought, / don't believe
l would. If by any chance he just
grazed and neighed and switched
his tail while the race was being
run, / doubt if l could stand the
disillusionment.
Because / was one of the fellows
/ believe, who distinctly saw his
spirit hovering over the backstretch
at Churchill Downs a year ago.

Cleveland knocked the Yankees

Never having had son and

how Man O. War feels about the
calling off Of the race between son
War Admiral and grandson Sea-
biscuit.
If 1 hadn't read SO much about
the amazing behavior of Man O.

won the Kentucky Derby, I would
be inclined to think that Man O.
War wouldn't know about the race
in the first place, and wouldn't care
If it were called off, in the second
Horses generally aren't credited
with keeping up with the news.
Radio companies report very few
sales to horses and an official of
the Encyclopedia Britannica once
told me that they would have to go
out OF business if they depend on
horses for customers. Proof that
very few horses know much about
anything is the fact that up until
the time the Belmont race was call
ed off yesterday not one horse had
bought a ticket for the classic. If
horses had enough sense to have
known about this match there un-
doubtedly would have been 10000
or $4,000 Of them eager TO watch
War Admiral and Seabiscuit go
mile and a quarter. After all, it
shaped up as the biggest thing
involving horses to come along in
years
Man O. War, however, must be
great exception to general horse
dumbness. After the Derby last
year l read patches of stories deal
ing with the remarkable actions of
Man o. War to the victory of his
son. The Admiral II these accounts
OF the doings on FaraWay farm that
