SITH-IPADOO 1N CONVENTION FGHT Fach Anxious fo Name Place of Big Mesting ‘Washington, Feb. 23 (UP)—The scramble for a city to stage the 1928 democratic national convention is on. Underlying the activity of the half dozen most prominent aspirants for the presidential nomination next year is a deep rooted feeling that the choice of a convention site will have much influence upon the outcome of the convention, Chicago, Cincinnati, Cleveland and St. Louis are understood to be receiv- ing favorable consideration by the democratic national committee mem- bers who must make the choice, The Al Smith leaders here are alking of Detroit and some of the William G. McAdoo forces favor go- ing to California. The Smith people think that Detroit is a cosmopolitan city much of the type of New York. They think the influence of the city would aid Smith's candidacy and are preparing to fight for its selection. They would not under any considera- tion permit the convention to go to California, they say, because that is now considered McAdoo's home state, ‘Conversely, the McAdoo people are not very sympathetic toward De- troit. If they can't get California they would rather have Cleveland, Chicago or Cincinnatl in the order named. Selection of either of the Ohio towns might prove a boon to the candidacy of Gov. Vic Dona- hey of Ohio who is being prominent- Iy mentioned particularly by some former McAdoo men as a possible compromise candidate to end the old McAdoo-Smith feud. St. Louis is being favored by those who wish to aid the candidacy of Senator James A. Reed of Missourt. Reed has always been popular in St. Louis although Kansas City is his home town. If St. Louis should be selected his candidacy would be ma- terially aided. The committee will not meet to| select & site until next spring. SPECIAL ENVOIS 10 MAKE SURVEY Foreign Relations Committee| Likely to Visit Mexico Washington, Feb. 23 (A—With in- dications pointing to approval a resolution which would empower the senate foreign relations committee to | visit Mexico and Central American countries durlng the recess of con-| ‘gress to obtain first hand informa- tion as to conditions having a bear- | ing on relations with the United| States was turned over to that com- mittee today for consideration, tegarded as a fresh challenge to the administration’s Central Ameri- can policy, particularly with respect to Mexico and Nicaragua, the resolu- tion was offered late vesterday by the committee’s chairman, Senator Borah, republican, Idaho, and im- mediately received the support of a | coalition of democrats and republl- | can insurgents. The action sur-; prised administration senators, but | they refused to indicate what stand they would take if the resolution | reaches the senate floor. { Supporters of the proposal had locked for favotable action by the committee today and also predicted senate approval if the coalition does not break down during the almost certaln fight on the floor. “We want to find out the facts and keep Informed,” Senator Borah de- clared after he had offered the reso- Iution, which would authorize the | committee to spend $10,000 for ex- penses “to visit such countries and to slt during the recess of congress at such times and places as it deems | advisable.” The senator, who has repeatedly attacked the administration’s Cen- tral American policy and advocated arbitration of the Mexican contro- versy, emphasized that conflicting re- ports from the troubled zones con- tinue to arrive and sail he hoped to take his committee over the ground in an effort to obtain first hand in- formation. Consideration of the resolution to- day is expected to coincide with the saillng for Nicaragua from Quant Va., of the transport Henderson, with a detachment of marines.

Diaz's letter suggesting the new pact is not expected to reach Washington until after congress ad- journs, but, even if it arrived before then, there s no chance according | to informed officials, of the admin- istration presenting such a treaty to the present senate.

PINEDO 15 READY 10 GO ON AGAIN Completes One of Most Hazard- ous Parts of Trip | Fernando Noronha, Brazil, Feb. 23 (P)—Commander Francesco de Pinedo, the Italian aviator, has put | behind him one of the most hazard- ous sections of his “‘four-continent” | fight.

In making public an outline of the proposals which the conservative government is forwarding to Wash- ington, President Diaz pointed out that the treaty desired would not give preferential treatment, would provide means whereby the United States would protect interests of aragua for 100 years. The United States would even be granted the right to intervene when necessary t maintain an adequate government and assure free clections. The United States also guarantee the sovereignty and inde- pendence of Nicaragua and retain agreements of the Bryan-Chamorro treaty, now in force, right to build a canal lcaraguan territory. For 400 years according to the treaty as outlined in the proposals Nicaragua would concede to the United States rights to de country so as to assure financial re- habilitation and security and the public health. through Under the financial rehabilitation | provisions, the president of the United States would recommend financial adviser, to be appointed by the Nicaraguan president. This ad- viser would be an American and have supreme power over financial dispensations and the power to veto expenditures. There would also be | an American collector-general of all | revenue. These two offices would ex- ist only for the duration of the re- funding and consolidation of the present internal and external debt of $7,000,000, revolutionary ms of $4,000,000 and a debt of $4,000, 000 for proposed railway constr tion. A loan is expected to b for this construction, virtually under | American guarantees. The United States would work out plans for Nicaraguan constabulary, sanitation, financial and economic rehabilitation, a credit system and fiscal administration. It is stipulated that collections of revenues shall first | &0 to the expenses of the oflice of the collector gencral then to the national | debt, the national budget. Nicaragua would standing army, but would have a trained, armed constabulary which wonld include municipal and ru police and be the only armed or; {zation of the country.

So little of it for life. Do you recognize the difference? Living is food and clothes and “expenses’—just keeping alive. But life—life is a journey that widens the horizon. A book that opens a new vista. The entertainment of new friends who make us stand higher mentally, and breathe a freer intellec- tual air. Life. It’s the only thing worth spending money for. And, if you know the secret, you can buy so much for a very little. For as little as 25 cents you can buy today The American Magazine. It #s life. It is companionship with “the ten greatest thinkers” (see page 7, the article by Will Durant, whose “Story of Philosophy” is sweeping the country). It is friendship with humble folks like “the little hero of Meriden” (page 82) and with great folks who started small (John L. Merrill’s story, page 37). People like these lift us by our spiritual boot-straps; fill our Jungs a little deeper ; make us conscious of unused powers. Just 25 cents, but it's a whole new world. A world where our limitations and hindrances drop away from us; where we feel that we can be more and do more. A wonderful 25 cents’ worth—a splendid package of LIFE.
