C. -- Among other things, the treasury department is fussing over what to do with one 10 karat collar button and three hairpins. Items such as these are about to crowd the money out of the government's huge vault in the treasury building basement. The stuff was turned over to the treasury as unclaimed by the state department. For safe keepigg. Most of it originally belonged to Americans who were living in foreign countries. When nobody showed up to claim it, it was given to the American diplomatic representatives. They shipped it to the state department. The treasury would like to do something about It, but can't. There is no law which would allow it to hold a public auction on the huge stacks of German mark* from before World War I or Russian rubles. , Secretary Belpleea ' Secretary of the Treasury Snyder is as helpless as the next one. For one thing, he doesn't even know the combination to the safes. W. 1^. Julian, the treasurer of the United States, knows how* the lodes work, but he's not talking. Anyhow, to get back to buttons aiid hairpins: In 1934 the state department sent a small boy over to the treasury under heavy guard with a large envelope, along with a little note stating that the owner could not be located. The treasury people opened the folder and found one pair of horn r i m m e d s p e c t a c l e s w i t h g o l d mournings iny black case; one cuff button; one collar button; one woman's handbag containing a pair of manicure scissors, one gold earring, a gold ring and' a Cuban coin worth about a nickel; a rusty .22 caliber revolver that wouldn't shoot and a cheap watch, junior size, that wouldn't run. The three hairpins turned up in another packet, which came from Yokohoma, Japan. Articles Pile Up As the years go on, such things pile up and gather dust in the dark, massive vaults. The collection goes back a long way. One letter on file tells of a flock of bonds captured in Louisiana in 1865 and turned over to the treasury for "safe keeping." They are still there. The letter says the bonds, payable to the city of New Orleans, were worth at the time $4,476,980 and were captured at Shreveport July 12, 1865, by Gen. Philip Sherman. There are a lot of curios in the vaults. O^s is a gold medal which was tup^osed to have gone to a man who did a lot of heroic work in fighting an epidemic of yellow fever in the tropics. The name of the man isnjt on the record, but the medal inscribed to "An Unsung Hero" was turned over to the vault keepers. The buttons and medals and bond8 keep coming in. The treasury is about to throw in the sponge --or move to a larger building. Pops Says Apestle Pstsr ---- Buried In "Eternal City" ROME. -- Pope Pius, in an address to 6,000 Rome students, said that the burial place of the Apostle Peter "is and was under the cupola of St Peter's Church." Archaeological findings "demonstrate that," the Pontiff said. It had beeo entitipated that the Pope, sooner or later, would affirm the truth oi the tradition that St. Peter, martyred in Rams, was buried on the site of the world's largest Christian church. However, he had been expected to delay the disclosure until sometime during the Holy Year, opening next Christmas Eve. The Pope made hls< statement about St Peter's burial place quite casually, in the course of an- address, whose topic was the duty of the young to prepare themselves for "responsible offices" in later age. He urged upon the students the study of Latin--"not . a dead tongue but the key that opens the fountains of history"-^as of Italian and other modern languages.

Mason right out of a Job. The residents of this Waukesha county village have sent so many relief packages to Europe that post office receipts have gone over the $1,600 per year limit set for fourth class post oAces. That pushes Wales up to third class and automatically vacates the postmaster's position. It must be filkd through a competitive civil service examination. Mrs. Mason, who has been post mistress for It years, had to send to the town newspaper a notice that her position is open and exam inations will be held. However, she tan take the examination herself and there's a good chance there will be ho contest.
