But this Is 1932. The air Is clean and so are the streets. The sight of building litter would be as welcome as the discovery of land to Columbus. The sound of a riveting machine would be a witching strain. Aboiit the only place yon can se^ and hear construction going on is around Rockefeller Center.

Tha high officials of European countries realize the portent of the informal chats- They realize that eventually the meeting will be equivalent to landlord calling rent. Ministries and may fall solely on the debt to America. Yet this item did not figure prominently in the National campaign just closed. Payments are due December 15 and on the same night President Hoover will give his first reception of the season--to the Diplomatic Corps. Presidents andS their successors seldom if ever met prior the formal gathering at the White House an hour before the inauguration on the Capitol steps. Mr. Roosevelt came to Washington at Mr. Hoover's invitation to get acquainted with the foreign debt problem. The responsibility is still with the President and the present Congress. The feeling prevails that settlement will be demanded of the debtors. Exporters are worried that this policy will harm America's foreign trade. With tariffs now effective making a virtual boycott in some countries, the ordinary citizen, facing higher taxes, is inclined to support "pay now" plan. Repudiation would damage the credit of the debtor, nations beyon! measure- Mussolini may yet prove a trump card by paying Italy's obligations, and establishing firm credit foundation in event of future wars. And Italy and France, our chief debtor, are at logger-heads. Sectionalism may rise to plague the Democrats in their hour of victory. The fight brewing over the Speakership isl predicated on this single point more than on personalities. With Southerners already in control of important House committees, Henry Rainey's bid for the job may gain in strength. He hails from Illinois and is now the majority floor leader, ranking next to Speaker Garner. There were 42 states listed in the Roosevelt McHenry. The afternoon was spent in playing airplane bunco.

Taken From Mongolia to Make New Manchuria. * Washington.--"Jehol, scene of recently reported Japanese campaigns in Manchuria (Manchukuo), is one of the four provinces that since 1929;' when Jehol was clipped from Inner Mongolia, make up the new Manchuria," says a bulletin from the National Geographic society. "Jehol, perhaps, was unknown to the average layman until it sprang into the spotlight recently in connection with the movement of Japanese troops. If modern newspapers had been printed two centuries ago, its happening would have been frequently in the headlines. It was the summer place of Manchu emperors. In some thirty magnificent palace buildings, some of. the great Manchurlan leaders were born, lived or died. "The province is about as long as New York state measured from New York city ; northward to its northern border, and about as wide. It also lies nearly in the same latitude a* the Empire state. ^ > Forests /Hav»' Vanishad. "For the most part the province is hilly. The Great Khingan mountains form its western border. The southern part of the province Is almost devoid of vegetation. Hungry cook stoves and fireplaces have even stripped trees, roots, and bushes from the solL In winter, it is a common sight to see natives raking the ground for bits of fire wood. "Lack of transportation is, perhaps, one of the leading drawbacks of Jehol. -No railroads enter the province; it has no seashore; and It has no large rivers. Roads are hardly more than mere paths over which animals and crude carts pass. In some regions automobile trucks link towns. Wooden seats for passengers are placed around the sides of the trucks. After the traveler thinks the vehicle Js full to capacity, more passengers enter the vehicle and occupy as small spaces as possible on the floor. Ten miles an hour is a high speed on Jehol roads. An automobile ride reminds the experienced traveler of a voyage on a rough sea in a small boat, for the way usually consists of a series of boulders and holes. When Jehol awakens, about 80,000,000 tons of anthracite and 850,000,000 tons of bituminous coal will be ready for modern transportation facilities. * 4. Travtllng la Difficult, ' "Jehol city is reached after about 144 miles of rough traveling from Peiping. On the route the traveler frequently passes through typical vil-j lages of southern Jehol with their native inns of mud construction. A warm brick bed and a smoky lamp are air that the Inn keeper provides. Millett cooked as rice, and buckwheat flour made into dough strings, bean curd and cabbage, are among the chief? foods served to guests. "The Jehol district exports hides, sheep's wool fo& carpet making,; bristles, licorice root, and furs. When crops are good, some millet, sorghum, beans, buckwheat, cotton, tobacco and melons find their way to outside markets. "Jehol city is but a skeleton of the "City it once was. The six-mile wall that surrounded the imperial estate no longer protects magnificent palaces, but the ruins of them. "The summer palaces were built in the early part of the Eighteenth century. The place was struck by lightning in K20 and the emperor, believing the occurrence a bad omen, deserted it. It was not occupied again until 1860 when Emperor Hsien Feng fled there from Peiping. He lived less than a year after his arrival, completely demonstrating to the satisfaction of the imperial family that evil spirits inhabited the place. On two later occasions when Manchn rulers fled from Peiping they found other sanctuaries than Jehol." ...^/-'Composition of Graaita 6ranite Is an unstratifled rock, normally consisting of three simple minerals-- feldspar, quartz and mica.

Bullet in Skull for 15 Years Kills Ex-Soldier Budapest.--John Nagy, after walking about serenely under sentence of death, likely to be executed at any moment, met his fate quite suddenly. As he slammed the door of his house to go to his morning's work, an Italian bullet which struck him in 1917, and which liad remained in his skull, entered his brain and killed him. Nagy had been a surgical phenomenon for years. When taken to a hospital on the Italian front It was found that a rifle bullet had struck him in the temple, penetrated the skull and lodged between the Skull bones impinging on the brain. According to all rules of medical science he should have been a dead man, and surgeons could not explain how he lived, save that by a miracle the brain remained untouched. An operation to remove the bullet would have killed him at once. So, after long treatment, he was released from the hospital. He was warned to live a very quiet life, as the slightest movement of the bullet would mean his end. With the lapse of time caution •eemed unnecessary. The man whom the doctors could prove should be dead married and had two children.
