His stand on that question, how
ever, is not matter OF any great
doubt.
He is against third term and mas

opposition based upon dislike Oh

In discussing the national conren-

out that tWenty-three states will Sc

He adverted to this fact more or

the effect that the North Carolina

advance of the national meeting.

Bremen. They conferred there in a
railroad car on March 10, at which
time, it was generally understood,
final plans were made for 1taly's
subsequent entrance into the wal
at a critical stage.
Many Questions
Many questions bearing on Eu-
rope and Africa-and perhaps Oh
America-form a possible agenda
for their discussion.
The matter of Spanish entrance
into the war; African colonial ques-
tons; the fate of Greece, about
which rumors have been spread
ing from the Mediterranean that
Italy already has a substantial mil
itary force in Albania; the time
and method of the lon%g-expecteo
effort to bottle up the Mediterran-
can by a march through Spain on
Gibraltar and a drive throughout
Egypt toward the Suez; the near
East situation, increasingly impor'
ant because of the supply of oil
in Iran and Irak.
A sudden action against Suez
and Gibraltar might conceivably
make possible the trapping of q
large section of the British fleet
now engaged in the Mediterranean
in keeping the Italian nav in
check.
Japs Not Included
So far as is known the japanese
are not to be included in the Bren-
ner meeting pointing to the pos
sibility that the discussions are to
be limited to operations directly
affecting European powers.
Gin Rome today, Virginia Gayda
wrote in the authoritative Fascist
publication II Giornale D'Italia the
reports of disagreement between
Germany and Italy over policies
and the way the war is going,
were British propaganda"
(The Axis powers, he declared,
are in full agreement and "satis-
fed with what one another has
done and prepared"
CIT is only a matter now" he
went on, "of coordinating political
and military plans and actions still
better. The two nations of the Axis
are not impatient to end the war
SOON"
(Then he indicated that any sep
arate peace negotiations we're out
OF the question, saying: "T h y
have only a firm will to arrive to-
gether at complete victory, which
must be a new regime of Europe
and Africa.") 2

In TAX VALUATION

personal property valuation in the
county this year to increases in the
number of boats, automobiles, and
trucks, amount of merchandise and
fixtures, and property owned by
corporations.
Personal property values in the
city for the 1910 tax year showed
a net loss of $11,775 when COM
pared with the valuations of last
year. This year personal property
in the city is valued at $4,418, 283
as compared with the valuation of
1870, O58 for the previous year.
Real property valuations showed
increases of $53, 1888 in the county
and $143,474 in the city for the
1910 tax year, Orrell's records re-
vealed.
Real property valuations were,
listed by Orrell as follows: for the
county, 1910, $46, 1878, 997; and 1899,
$46, 825, 259; for the city, 1910, $780,
349, 1854; and 1889 %$30205690.
Orrell said the differences in the
total valuation of all property in
the city and in the county may be
partly accounted for in the fact
that corporations pay a different
excess to the county than to the
city. z
