It has been learned that Myron T.

Maybe this was a mistake. It seems the Hughes plan was laid definitely before Premier Poincare who neither turned It down nor ex pressed any hostility toward It. Hopes are entertained that it may be accepted yet. if the Ruhr venture proves a failure. At any rate, it Is said the Washington gov ernment Is keeping the "door its "good offices’’ If It receives any Its "good offices” If It rccevtes any intimation that It would be well received.

Slender threads tie- down many thrones, they think, whether the flame of war sweeps through, Europe or not. And now increas ing alarmist reports have drag ged from obscurity into the spot light many of the inconspicuous princes who are heirs toTSuro- pean thrones. The internationally known Prince of Wales is not the only one who is concerned if a new chapter on kings ’ and royalty comes to be written. Will these princes one day be kings? Notable among them are: Carol, Crown Prince of Rumania Gustaf Adolf, Duke of Skane and Crown Prince of Sweden. Leopold, Duke of Brabant and Prince of Belgium. Humbert, Prince of Piedmont and Prince of Italy. Oinf, Prince of Norway. Frederick, Crown Prince of Den mark. Don Alfonso, Prince of the As turias and Prince of Spain. The lives of most- or these have been blank .pages up to now. Un like the Prince of Wales, called tbs- “drummer” for the British Em pire, they are little known.
