Davis, America’s “ambassador-at- large,” sailed homeward Friday with information which may alter, or at Jeast will affect, this country's future course in the world’s three greatest. problems—disarmament, the economic | situation, and the Manchurian issue. At about the time he started his westward voyage from LeHavre,/ France, Thursday, the league of na- tions committee of 19 dispatched a resolution in the other direction wh may have a vital bearing on future relations between the U. S. and Jap- an. nd | to} This resolution, sent to Chi Japan for approval, was report include an invitation to the U. S. to] sit in a conciliation commission to settle the Sino-Japanese dispute over Manchuria. Japan already has de-| clared opposition to the scheme, but } this may not swerve the league. Although officially in Europe as) America’s disarmament representative, Davis attended the recent opening rounds of the Manchurian debate at Geneva and he is in a position, at/ least, to advise the U. S. on what its} course should be. i In dealing with the other two prob- lems, this New York banker, who has been a prominent figure in all sorts of world conferences since President Wilson left the field, has given the lie to an old saying that “America produces politicians, but Europe pro- duces statesmen.” On this jast three-month trip to] je i cLoupy Saturday. kota: cloudy tonight and Saturday, preced- ed by snow ex- treme southeast tonight; rising H temp. ‘southeast, } colder northwest tonight; colder #| Saturday.

But possibly be- .00 | cause none of the boys showed quite 00; the aptitude that their father had, | for thefn for several seasons. “You can't sail a boat,” he said,| ‘until you know everything about j boats, and can do everything there is to be done about a boat.” | So the youngsters did their sail- ing on the family’s yacht, and work- | jed like common seamen at the reef- | |ing and hoisting of sails, the coiling | of ropes and the scouring of decks. | Over and over again they were in- | structed in the ways of the tides and {treacherous currents. And to ac- |} quaint them with their nautical | fundamentals, the father made model | sailboats for them. | These were really finished prod- | ucts of the model-maker's art, and} | they were large enough for exciting | | regattas in which the whole family; |took part. “All the models were| 0 made along different lines,” Elliott | | recalled. “And each of us had one | that could make a good showing in! | varying kinds of weather. There was ‘such keen rivalry among us that | when one boat lost consistently fath- jer always made another to replace | it, and built it in the same design as | | the most frequent winner.” | * * # | | A NAUTICAL MISHAP | | During the eight years that Roose- | Navy he was unable to spend the ; usual two whole months with his family in New Brunswick. He freq- uently went up for short visits, how- ever, and one summer, on the Fourth ‘of July, he made a triumphal ap- pearance at the island on a U. 8. destroyer. Then, to the delight of everyone, it was discovered that hung on the side of the war vessl was a { littl knockabout sailboat intended for | the children’s use. They called it, the Vireo, for the bird by that name. | The Virea, was as nearly foolproof as a small boat could be, and there were few duckings in the icy waters about the island. But there was also a sailing canoe, treacherous in the | calmest water and certainly nothing \ for a youngster to monkey with in the choppy Bay of Fundy. Franklin Roosevelt and his eldest son, Jimmy, decided to try out the) sailing canoe one day, and took the younger children’s governess along. She was esconced in the bottom for ballast. James was at the bow, his father steering at the stern—and they capsized. The water was so cold that it put just one thought into James’ head— to get out of it just as quickly as possible. He knew his father would ibe safe enough. But suddenly he thought of the governess ,who was nowhere in sight! They considered diving for her, which seemed a pret- ty useless thing to do since no one jknew where she might have gone down, And then they discovered ; that she hadn't gone down! She | was inside the overturned canoe, high and dry under a seat, and scared into hypnotic rigidity. They got her out with no serious results and push- ed the boat ashore. It stayed ashore; and so did the governess. *** PLENTY OF WORK AND PLAY The Campobello “cottage” really ‘Lo-night for supper SERVE a steaming delicious dish of Creamette Egg Noodles! it’s easily pre- pared, and whet a treat It will ‘be for the family who always epprecistes « change of menu.

Water was brought from a nearby windmill and that, together with chasing stock out of , the yard, was the chief duty of the | youngsters. | Cattle and sheep, property of the year-around residents, were allowed | to graze over the whole island, and | many an impromptu rodeo was or- , years ago, and the family went afoot on long hikes, or sailed around in the yacht to hidden coves for picnics. Blueberries, cranberries and wild | flowers grew in profusion. “On the nicest days father often organized all of us and our neigh- bors for paper chases,” Elliott re- called. “Three of us would be hares and the rest hounds. For years I was humiliated at trailing Anna and Jimmy and the elders by about half }@ mile. But I stuck to it and got so | I could beat them all in these runs. “I was especially-fond of swim- ming, but John (the youngest broth-! er) and I were never as expert sai- lors as the rest. Even Anna could handle a boat pretty well, but when father was along none of us had to worry about our navigation. I be- | lieve he knew that island and its surrounding shores better than the natives themselves. He's a phenome- | nally lucky or skillful—we’ve never | been sure which—fisherman, too.” x * FDR BUILT LINKS Franklin Roosevelt was an ardent golf player in his youth, and at! Campobello he proceeded to lay out| a nine-hole course and introduce his family to the game. “It was an awfully sporty course, | too,” Elliott said. “Sporty despite the | fact that it was perfectly flat. The | thing that made it difficult was try- jin foreclosure proceedings on farm ition of each case. jWell as with owners who are unable ing to keep from hitting the sheep that were usually roaming around it, and our rules committee was al- ways in an awful stew about wheth- er or not it should be permissable to scare away these ‘natural hazards.’” Farmer Group Moves Against Foreclosures Des Moines, Dec. 16—()—The Farmers Holiday association has un- dertaken formation of county organi- zations to insure equitable adjustment properties. This was revealed Thursday by Milo Reno, national president of the Farmers Holiday movement, who said that 91 Iowa counties were organized or in the process of organization, along with 50 in Nebraska. The movement also has extended into South Dakota, he said. Each county has a central organi- zation with a “key” man in each township. The county also has what Reno termed a “council of defense” composed of five persons, not all nec- essarily farmers. This council has a thorough knowledge of county farm conditions and acts after investiga- The council deals with cases be- tween tenant farmer and landlord as to meet their mortgage obligations.

D., Dec. 16—(#)— Ownership of a group of bar-room oil paintings, which hung for many years in the old Palace hotel in Lemmon, has been settled in favor of Jake bour, former owner of the hotel, When Quaschnick bought the ho- tel from Rodenbour, the latter re- tained the pictures. Quaschnick sued for recovery and the state supreme court held for him, The paintings depict a group of English bulldogs, seated around 2 green table, solemnly engaged in a game of poker. The value was placed at $500, though the name of the painter, a bar-room porter, is un- known. He painted them in a gambling hall in Minneapolis. As he went about his work he noticed carefully the expressions of the men who played and used the English bulldog as @ medium. nf The old artist-porter placed the paintings on the wall ‘and then, be- a discouraged, committed sul- cide.
