It always was and always will he It believes in praise where praise Is duo and It maintains the right to criticize those things that In Us Judgment are blameworthy. Certain new ideas that have emlnated from Washington during the past live years have been excellent; the! CCC camps have been one of the flu est constrnctlve forces for good this country lias ever seen The inercaso of the army and the navy to a size comparable with the safety of the nation Is admirable. There have been many other acts to praise. And'there are some things to blame.

There was some confusion attendant with placing the ring on the last stand, but after one false start, Mr. Kales reined his beautiful black I'atent Heather Kid and charged down the course Just as the third ring was being put In position. "Clad in shining blue, Mr Kates took two runs In addition to the Initial three required to eliminate three rivals. They also scored perfect counts in the first three tries.

The stage is all set for an outbreak which may come in 1939. Conversely, depending , entirely on the United States, war ^ may be delayed indefinitely. England, ] France and Russia stand on one side 1 with Germany, Japan and Italy on the 1 other," he said. "Strength is almost equally balanced. I believe the forSjer trio would atack Japan now, usifig Japan's China policy as a pretext, ^ it they could be sure of American sup- , port. H?-nce, the United States is the ] decisive factor." J' Great Britain is moving to bring thejj question of Italy's conquest of Ethiopia before the League of Nations, to J the end that Italy's rights might be j recognized by other powers.
