On orders from John F. Curry, chief of Tammany hall, most of Tammany switched into line on the second roll call Cullen refused and the pressure has become so strong that within the past 24 hours ho was compelled to declare publicly that he was 100 per cent behind Mr. Roosevelt. This brings up the second factor in Mr. Roosevelt's power, the patronage club. Tammany chieftains are trying to be very, very . good right now.

More Music for Treasury 7 ? 1 r V, — ■ Ik ■ JE / 1 Music hath charms, but whether or not the charms are potent enough to balance the Federal budget remains to be seen. Above is James P. Warburg, son of the late Paul Wat burg, of New York, who is reported to be the choice of Secretary Woodin for the post of Under Secretary of the Treasury. Like Mr. Woodin, Warburg is a musical composer, and is here shown with his wife who has collaborated with him in the writing of several popular songs.

I are "deserving'’ before he passes i I out the jobs. To appreciate ills . power to tame the rebels it is! only necessary to scan the anxious faces of senators ami congressmen who crowd his office looking for jobs for faithful constituents. Lastly and perhaps equally importaiJt is the soft easy smile of, the man in the White House. He ■ jokes. He pleads. He is firm but I reasonable. if objections are raised he tries to meet them if humanly possible. He is reSdy to adjust minor matters to gain larger ends. He calls congressmen to the White House in large numbers at night. He passes around 10 cent cigarettes — the kind he smokes himself. He teamed long ago that the voice i with the smile wins. ■ Later on perhaps it will be his | chief weapon. He knows better ! than anyone else that public sup- | pin t can hardly be expected to re- , main indefinitely at its present I ardent pitch. Some day the job* I will have all been passed out and : then there will be left the army j of the disappointed. ■When that time arrives, Mr. Roosevelt will be thrown more than now npx'->?>- own j>c s<mal qualities. But he doesn't seem to be worrying.

The lodge room, which stretches across the width of the building, facing Second strebt, was damaged by stnoke. The entire room will have to l>e redecorated. Great clouds of smoke came ( from the building. The north side . of the court house square was eti-1 gulfed m smoke and from the ‘ Daily Democrat office, which is directly across the street fromJ : the K. of C. building, it was ini-> i possible to see the court house i ■As the blaze gained headway, the I smoke began to roll out from the ’ oast front of the building. The, fin- did not spread this far. but the clouds of smoke were so heavy that for a few minutes it looked as it the entire upper part , of ithe building was on fire and ■ that one of Decatur's largest and j most modem buildings was doom-, ed to destruction. None of the offices or stores attempted to move out. The firemen, under the direction of Captain Jack Friedt, played three hose lines on the tire and soon had it under control. The firemen mosnted the fire escape ait the west end of the building and fought the blaze from the south windows. Several times the men were almost overcome by smoke. Later a line was laid from the roof of the building and within 45 minutes the blaze was dead. A large crowd was attracted to the scene. The court house lawn was lined with spectators. A spectacular fire seemed in 'the offing. A funeral procession going south passed on Second street a few minutes after the hose had been laid across the street. The cars were routed over Madison street, making a left hand turn. The club rooms, located itr the west end of the building, were not damaged, exiwpt for smoke and water. Owners of the Teeple and Peterson clothirg store and the ShoeMarket. locked the doors of their places of business and joined the crowd of sightseers. Captain Freidt stated lie would not. estimate the loss until later. He said he had no idea as to the damage to stock of goods on the first floor und that it was almost impossible for him to place an aii'tlioritatiVe estimate. The elevator, which is one of the self-operating kind is put to mueh servin . Recently boys were seen in the elevator and Mr. Yager stated that coiisttunt running of lhe elevator might have worn down ’he insolation 'on the wires, causing a short circuit. Notices were posted in the corridor of the building a short time ago forbidding boys to run the elevator, Mr. Yager stated. Through Mr. Yager, the city firemen were thanked for their effort tn controlling the -flames and keeping down the loss as much as possible. "Please say for me that we appreciate the , work of the firemen." Mr. Yager ' stated to a Daily Democrat representative. Insurance adjusters from several companies arrived In the city this afternoon and began the job of estimating the damage. The ' trustees of the K. of C. building .association carry ample insurance and repairs Ho the building end club rooms will be made as soon

as an adjustment is made. Offices located on the second floor are; Berling Insurance Agency; Dr. L. E. Somers, Dr. Burt Mangold, Attorney J. T. Merryman and Ed A. Bosse.

Henderson put the matter to a vote and event ually the British, French and Italians joined the small nations in voting for debate tomorrow Hugh Wilson, American delegate, did not vote. The forced rearrangement of plans of the commission was a signal victory for the small nations, whose reaction to the four power treaty move started by Premier Mussolini of Italy stirred immediate resentment in the the capitals of the smaller nations. MacDonald's disarmament plan was announced at Geneva before the premier went to Rome, where the Mussolini plan was advanced, and to Paris, where the British premier sought French support tor the Mussolini program rather than for his own. o Denies Petition India ipolis March 23 —-(UP) — Federal judge Robert C.

> JAPAN SEEKS ANNEXATION , Japan Makes Flat Claim For Annexation Os Mandated Islands ’! Tnkio, Mar. 23.—(U.R)—A flat ' claim for annexation of the manE dated islands in the Pacific was 1 made by Japan today when the min--1 istry of navy circulated a pamphlet, ■'expressing the indomitable will of ‘rihe empire against surrendering 1 the former German colonies. •: The pamphlet was issued after reports that Chancellor Adolph f Hitler of Germany hoped to regain •jthe Archipelagoes through the Lea- • gue of Nations which entrusted ' i them to Japan's custodianship. Reiterating that the 1,600 islands form “Japan's naval lifeline,’’ the ! ministry declared they were occupied during the World war under i terms of an agreement with Great ! Britain. The agreement provided ’ that the colonies should become • Japanese possessions at the close 1 of the war, it was claimed. The treaty was said to have been 1 superceded later when the allied powers, gathered around the conference table, drew up agreement disposing of Germany’s colonies. The ministry recalled that Pres!- - dent Wilson objected to Japan’s ■ annexation of the Pacific Islands - i whereupon the mandate agreement t | was reached as a compromise. It .; I was understood definitely among I Jap tn. Great Britain and Fi ance, i i however, that mandate actually . i meant annexation by Japan, the

I government asserted. The ministry’?, step today reeniIphasized Japan’s position that she I will not surrender the islands under any circumstance. Her stand runs counter to foreign opinion which claims terms of the mandate compel her to return the colonies to the league as soon as she resigns at Geneva.
