ITALY AND AUSTRIA . DISPUTE POSSESSION OF OBJECTS OF ART VIENNA, Nov. 8. The government thus far has refused to make public

the secret agreement Dy .wnicn in Karl Renner, then chancellor, agree'! to give to Italy many valuable works of art, manuscrips and historical rel ics not provided for surrender in thtreaty of St. Germain, despite demands by art associations and influential persons for that information. Their seizure began when the Ita'ian Armistice commission, under General Segre, first arrived in Vienna in February of last year, the contention of the commissions being that under the treaty of the war of 1866 these treasures should long since have been delivered. Among the articles taken by General Segre were the famous lapestries of Montua, and as regards them, the Austrians conceded tit'a and assisted in .their delivery. Then began the removal of pictures from the I lor museum and Academy of Fine Arts which had been brought to Vienna in 1816 and 1838. Those had been stored in a church at Veni-e. having been collected from many churches in the Venitian territory. It was done by order of Frances 1, then sovereign of Venice, which was at that time part of the Austrian empire. The Austrians bring forward a supplementary treaty to that of 1S66 regarding these objects, intended to clear title. They, render this clause as follows: "Austria will keep (gardera) the pictures exported in 1833 which his majesty, the emperor some time ago gave to the Academy of Fin Arts in Vienna, and to other galleries in the empire." Argue Meaning of Word. It is around the word 'gardera'. the Italians center their argument for possession, contending it means "take in I Or custody," or "for safe keeping," no', possession or girt. The Austrians say they have documents in the staie archives to show that in return the emperor gave to Italy presents of art far in excess of value to those in controversy, among them being the priceless collections of Manfrm and BThe Italians also took from the National library or other places additional treasures such as autographs, musical books, and three manuscrips worth everal millions of dollars, one or which. "The Genesis of Vienna, is said to be the most valuable late Roman manuscript in existence. With all these objects safe in Itaiy. when the peace conference began in Paris the Italians advanced further claims for works of art from Austria.

demanding the pick ot pictures iron the National academy in Vienna and virtually all the bronzes and statues made in Italy, or that ever were in Italy The objects thus covered were estimated to be worth about 4,0u0,. 000,000 gold francs. The claims were rejected, however, by the conference, and then began the Italian efforts to effect a speciatreaty to obtain her end. The negotiations proceeded until this spring, when Dr. Renner finally signed it on the occasion of his Italian visit. L n der its term General Segre's seizures are legalized and a large number of valuable objects are ceded in addition. According to report there was a ver bal promise on the part of Italy to assist Austria wherever possible in the boundarv delimitations now in progress and certain other political as suiances. . . It is understood the Austrian section ij of the Reparation commission is making inquiries into the whole transaction, as it may affect the assets of the country to which the treaty ot St. Germain gives title.

Electors Must Choose President in Accordance With Constitutional Rights Whoever chooses to call Senator Harding "the president-elect" can do so in safety. Thats is what the senator is today in the unanimous belief of , the American people, including those who would have preferred to let Governor Cox wear the title. As a matter of strict fact, and in the eyes of the law, however, he is now exactly what he was before Nov. 2, and exactly what he will remain, until the members of the electoral college meet, so solemnly through the formality imposed on them by the constitution, and certify to congress that, in the exercise of powers conferred under that document, they, not the men and women who voted Tuesday, have selected one Warren G. Harding of Marion, O., to be the country's chief exceutive for four years, beginning March 4, 1921. That the electors will do this, and nothing else, is certain to all practical

intents and purposes, but there is nothing to prevent them from making any other selection that in their judg-

mem seems better nothing, that is

except the natural reluctance which all men feel lor being torn into small pieces by maddened mobs, or receiving some other like manifestation of popular disapproval. For in truth it is a theory, not a condition that confronts us in this matter, and thougli the theory has been ignored for something more than a century, it sill has a sort of life on paper. There is a possibility, remote but real, that some day serious trouble will result from the custom of treating the presidential electors as mere

rubber stamps. They have, endured it long, and probably will endure it until we find time to bring into harmony law and practice in this highly important matter. Happy experience, now long continued, shows that there is no particular hurry about making law and practice agree, but it is not wise to take even small chances when to avoid them 'would be so easy and simple. Meanwhile "president-to-be" or "president-designate" is what the people's . choice really must be until action is taken by the always respectable but rarely eminent gentlemen who alone, under the constitution, are privileged to choose presidents for us.

LIFE WAS A MISERY TO HER Says this Woman Until Relieved by Lydia EL Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Carrollton, Ky. "I suffered almost two years with female weakness. I

could not walk any distance, ride or take any exercise at all without resting. If I swept the floor or did any kind of work it would bring my sickness on. I was weak and languid, had no energy, and life was a misery to me. I was under the care of a good phvsieian for sev

eral months and tried other remedies. 1 had read of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and decided to try it. After taking twelve bottles I found myself much improved and I took six more. 1 have never had any more trouble in that respect since.
