: A comparison between the armi-
stice terms Of 1910 as interpreted by
an authoritative British source to-
day and those of November II,
1918, which ended the World War,
follows:
The November II, 1918 armistice
terms are not to be confused with
the terms of the Versailles treaty
which Germany signed June %,
1919. The basis for q comparison
with Versailles will come when Ger
many and Italy negotiate their flnal
peace.
Territorial 1910.
Germany to occupy territory north
and west of the following line:
Geneva-Dole, Chalon-sur -Saone,
Paray-le-Monial, Moulins, Bourges,
Vierzon, thence to Is miles east OF
Tours, thence south parallel to the
Angouleme Railway to Mount de
Marson and st. Jean de Pied de
Port.
Roughly, this area includes more
than half of France, or LOG, 900
square miles. The approximate CEN
ter of the occupied area Is Paris.
The line through France runs,
roughly, from Geneva. Switzerland
to st. Jean de Pied de Port at the
Pyrenees, passing near Tours and
through Bourges. This gives Cor
many all Northern France and q
strip down the west coast to Spain
The French are to pay for the
territorial occupation.
France apparently retains colonial
possessions inasmuch as q small part
of its navy is to be retained for use
in that connection.
After the German campaign
against the British, the west coast
of France will be relinquished as
far as possible by Germany.
The French may designate their
own capital. Even Paris may be
chosen, in which case Germany will
provide facilities there.

Evening star., 1940-06-24

If the cost of your life insurance each year were
based on the deaths during that year in your age
group, your premiums would be low when you
are young, but would steadily increase in cost.
In your old age you'd probably find the premium
too high for you to pay. 1t would be like road
starting out level but becoming sleeper and
sleeper until you finally start sliding backwards.
But you don't want to give up your life in
surance in old age when you may need it moro

This fiat rate is higher than it otherwise would
be during the earlier years and lower in the later
years. It enables you to keep your life insurance
in force when you're 65 at the same annual pre-
MUM you started with at 80.
The company puts aside part of what you pay

New Chandelier Fan
Provides breezes
Without Drafts
Air Pulled Up From
Floor Likely to Be
Coolest in Room
BY LAWRENCE CROLIUs.


Any breeze short of a typhoon
comes as welcome relief from sitting
summer heat. but even though you
are practically gasping for breath,
few things can be more irritating
than blast Of air from a fan which
tosses papers to the four winds and
causes uncomfortable drafts. On
one hand you roast, and on the other
you are driven crazy, giving you
little from which to choose.
Most fans circulate their air hori-
zontally, as we all know, and there
by move quantities of air of the
same temperature. But down on the
floor the air is apt to be q few de-
grees cooler, unless, OF course, you
live over boiler room. To lift
this air from the floor and circulate
it in the room without drafts, q new
and different fan is available, and
according to the makers it will move
more air than three of the ordinary
l6-inch oscillating kind.
Combined with an attractive elec-
trio light fixture, this fan unit win
do double duty, and the two devices
seem to operate together in a very
unobtrusive manner The housing
which incloses the powerful fan mo-
tor also acts as the body of the
chandelier, and the circulating disk
hangs down below without a great
maze Of wire cages to keep people S
fingers away from the blades. The
fan itself is Of special design. with
a great number of small blades set
in a fiat disk. Thev are arranged
