summoned Adolf Hit
ler, chief the Na
tional Socinlists, who
had demanded con
trol of the government
for his party and the
post of chancellor for
himself, The Nazi
jeader set forth the
aims of his move
ment, and in return
the president gave
him a mandate to
form a cabinet under certain condi
tions which Hitler temporariiy at least
rejected,
The president demanded that Hitler
agree to respect the majority of Von
I'apen's emergency decrees and that
his eabinet would have to be backed
“by a majority or almost a majority”
of the reichstag. Von Hindenburg
also demanded Hitler's pledge to gov:
ern according to parliamentary rule
He further stipulated that Hitler must
maintain the present military and for.

von Schleicher must be retained as

UPPORTERS of the St. Lawrence
7 waterway treaty now fear that it
will not receive consideration at the
short session of congress, because the
opposition has come forward in such
strength. One of them, Senator Walsh
of Montana, thinks it will reach a
vote before March, but will not pre
diet the outcome. Should the ratifi
eation or rejection of the pact go over
to the new congress, Its fate would
depend largely on the attitude of the
new President. This, it was hoped,
would be revealed by the testimony
of Frank P. Walsh, chairman of the
New York power authority, who was
scheduled to appear before the senate
foreign relations subcommittee after
the Thanksgiving holiday,

Ro it behooves the treasury to have
very “good” money, as well as sound
money, and its experts are constantly
studying scientific subjects to find
ways to prolong the life of the bill
Numerous kinds of paper have been
tried. and countless “treatments” have
been given the bills in the experimen:

making the life of a bill last longer.
The maximum, however, seems to be
about ten months for the bills that
are In constant use like the ones and

superstition attaching to it, so it does
not wear out so soon,
Attention might be invited In this
connection to the effect of modern
business developments on currency,
Take the gasoline filling station, for

Nap Fabrics Are Seen
Everywhere This Year
Velvet is everywhere this year.
Paris is going in heavily for all sorts
of nap fabrics.
There are crepe veivets of varied
thicknesses—some soft and pliable as
chiffon, some heavy and thick as wool
ens. There are fur velvets—those
which look like ermine, like caracul,
like breitschwantz,
There are soft silk velvets made
into gowns whose skirts fall in soft
voluminous folds, and heavy cotton
back velvet dresses with full flaring
skirts whose hems cover spaces each
a yard and a half in diameter.
Velvet is used only for dresses and
coats, for evening wraps and gowns,
but for daytime sults, for pajamas, for
lounging robes and negligees, for cock
tall suits, for gloves and shoes, for
hats—in fact, for practically every
thing modern women wear,
