j ness of the great powers to lift a j finger in defense of the covenant which we are solemnly pledged to defend.” Sze's letter was based on au accompanying satenient by the Knomintang, or national party of the Chinese republic, regarding which Sze observed. “It is impossible for any government of China to accept a settlement involving direct negotiations under pressure of military occupa- | tion.” The Kuomintang statement, he I said, is “an authoritative exposition in calm and dignified form, of j the temper of the Chinese people.” j China cannot accept -the JapanI ese proposals for two reasons, he I continued. The first is that the j j fifth point raised in the Japanese | i "five points" concerning treaties) , lias nothing to do with security, j The second is that "we will not I ! and cannot accept the position that! i we should re-sign the 21 demands j as a condition for Japan fulfilling j ; her treaty obligations under the covenant and the pact of Paris—j Kellogg treaty. Sze said that if a compromise I plan is put to China, he shall not | j only reject it but reveal "in public ) meeting what Briand and other! ! members of the council have said ) ! on the impossibility of reconciling j ! negotiations under military pres ! j sure with the covenant and the; pact of Paris, and press for a pub-1 lie explanation of the reasons that led them to change their views.” He concluded significantly: "If the council declaves it could | jdo no more under article eleven,.

i Hickey Is Re-elected Chicago. Nov. 19. —<U.R) —Thomas ; J. Hickey, whose name is familiar ; wherever baseball is played, bail! been re-elected today for one year! to presidency of the American Association, a post lie hss held for IS i years. Opposition' to his reappointment first w is reported, but tile associa- j lion's club members were believed j to have compromised on a one- j year term instead of the usual 3-! ! year period. George Belden. pre- 1 ident of tlie Minneapolis club, and | William ClaUper, former secretary' of the Indianapolis club, at first; opposed his elections. Members appointed President MacPhail of the Columbus club and Norman Perry, owner of the Indianapolis club, to investigate re- ! c.eivership of the Toledo club. 1 o Beetle Largest insect? In wing expanse alone the moth | Erebus agrippina. with a spread of I 11 Inches, is the largest insect j known today. If size is to be gauged j by bulk, combined with body length, j the beetle Macrodontia ccrvicornis, j which ranges up to 6 Indies In j length, is perhaps the largest known. ! Arlin-jton Cemetery Mansion The mansion In Arlington cerne- j j terv has been restored to the condi- I tion in which it was when a private ! residence. A great deal of the orig- j inal furniture could not he secured, j since it had come from Mount Yer- i non and had been returned, but pe- . riod furniture has been used. It : is a handsome example of a planta- ; tion home before the Civil war. Mirage and Reality There are three differences by which desert travelers can tell whether they see a mirage or a lake of real water. A mirage usually quivers and changes In shape; a j real lake does not have this apI pearanee at a distance. A nail lake usually lias a dark band of vegetai tion around it and Ifi-Js fly near It | and above it. j O Talkie Used in Court During a trial in Melbourne. Aus--1 tralia, a judge of the Supreme ■ court listened to a reproduction by a talking picture machine of the noise In a dairy, which neighbors had charged was a nuisance. The "evidence" was so realistic that the Idea probably will be'used In other 1 trials in Australia.

RAILROAD FUND PROPOSAL MADE (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) which, unless satisfied, will result j in a default of a fixed obligation, i with the consequent menace of a [ receivership and foreclosure, into j lan obligation free from these un- i desirable consequences.” The larger railroads oppoesd the commission's plan. iuv Conferences leading up to today’s petition, on tlie contention it would make the j strong roads “collection agents” ] for tlie weaker lines. Under the j loan plan, it is contended that all I classes of railroads will obtain, ! benefits, either immediately or j | through the extended period of re-j | adjustment. "The obligation of the recipient | ! carrier will be to repay the amount | borrowed at such time as may be j agreed upon between the applicant; land the corporation, not exceeding itwo years, fixed with due regard; to the purposes of the plan, and shall be renewable for an addi ; j tional period of not exceeding two ; ! years, at the discretion of the cor-! j poration. and at all event shall be 1 l repaid before declaring any divi- ! (lend to its own stockholders exI eept in cases where, by contract 1 | or otherwise, payment of a specific dividend as a fixed chars .s ih-; ! volved," t’.i i-.i,loads’ petition j I stated. “Certainly,” it continued, “it is; j just that the stockholders of the! carrier earning the revenue hv pertorniing the service from whlchfftie fund arises should be preferred in .the ultimate disposition of it over: J t lie stockholders of the carrier, j which does not earn it.” The proposed plan provides for: j monthly reports to the commission. !It asks modification of the "per-; j car” increases authorized, such as $3 per car increase in Ihe rate on I coal, coke and lumber, to equixal- j ent "per ton” Increase. This de-, tail would avoid the confusion and j inequality occasioned by cars of i i different capacities used by the ; various railroads. The railroads’ plan expressed the * I realization that some reductions! | might have to be made from the ; ! maximum rates for competitive j i purposes. 2 iyo-et In Warfare F linnets were used as early as IGL. They consisted of a steel dag- j er fixed in a wooden haft which fit- j ed into the muzzle ot a musket. The I bayonet became tlie typical weapon , -f tlie infantry. In 1803 Sir John ! ; Moore introduced a bayonet fas I | rent'd to the musket by a spring clip, j ; rite triangular bayonet (so called | from the cross-section of its blade) | "as used in the British army until j i! e introduction of the magazine rifle, when it was replaced by the j ! sword bayonet Famous Police Body The royal Canadian mounted pie i Hfle patrol the international frontier, keep peace and order in the sub- ; Arctic-region and maintain posts on i tlie shores of Hudson bay. in the Yukon, on Herscliell isand and on some of the Arctic islands. They represent Canadian authority among the native Eskimos and their record In the prevention of crime has established their fame throughout the
