That was when delegates from Germany and from me Allies of World War 1 met there to solve the trouble-making issues left in the wake of the war. So amicable was the gathering that for a time, it was believed that the "spirit of Locarno" had ushered in a new era of good will in diplomatic relations.

Today, the old Hopeful term is again in the headlines, following suggestions from the British Prime Minister, Sir Winston Churchill, that the "master thought which animated Locarno" might play its part in the minds of current peace pbolofPeaccHope Mayor Calls Police Force "On Carpet 11 CHARLESTON, W.

SEVEN AT LOCARNO The 1925 meeting, held in Locarno's "Palace of Justice" between October 8 and 6, was attended by the high-ranking statesmen of seven countries Great Britain, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Poland and Czechoslovakia.

The German, French and Belgian boundaries set by the Versailles Peace Treaty were mutually guaranteed by the countries Involved, with Britain and Italy additional guarantors. Arbitration treaties were signed by Germany with Poland and Czechoslovakia, as well as with Belgium and France. France undertook a mutual assistance pact with Czechoslovakia and Poland in case of any unprovoked attack. One of the results of the Locarno pact was that Germany joined the League of Nations the following year. It also was understood by the treaty powers that the then occupied Rhineland would be evacuated and demilitarized.

Locarno's civic authorities proudly set up the historical conference room as a museum. The gold inkstand and pen used to sign the documents remained on the table, around which stood the chairs marked with the delegates' names. A clock showed the gathering's closing hour, 7:35 p.m.; a calendar, the date, October 16, 1025. But the spirit of conciliation born in the Swiss "peace city" was aeon lost in conflicting national inter. ests and expansionist ambitions.

Germany defied the Locarno pact and sent armed forces into the Rhineland ia 1939. This was the first of a series of acts by the Hitler government (including the absorption of Austria and the dismemberment and occupation of Czechoslovakia) that led finally to World War II. Back in Locarno, the hopeful exhibits of the peace room disappeared. ALPINE HEALTH CENTER Since the war, Locarno's 8,000 people living between the mountains and the blue waters of Lake Maggiore have carried on quietly in one of Europe's most charming Alpine health resorts. Winter visitors seek out Locarno to enjoy the mild, sunny climate and luxuriant gardens; the bathing, tennis and golf; the walks aad rides along scenic, winding valleys.

Locarno faces Italy's frontier and la Italian in language and flavor. Its medieval castle goes back to the rule of the Dukes of Milan. Ancient churches, narrow aread- ed streets, and houses with iron balconies are reminders that the settlement was more than a thousand years old when Locarno won modern fame. Britisher Belittles World Mark IOHDON tfWThe Colossus of Rhodes, one of the seven ancient wonders of the world, was described by a British scientist last night aa a hollow sham. Herbert Maryon, 79-year old sculptor- archaeologist, told a meeting of the Society of Antiquaries the giant statue was: Too sman to stand astride the harbor of Rhodes.

S. Made of thin bronze sheets instead of solid bronse. The Statue, of the sun god Helios, was the work of a sculptor named Chares, who spent 12 years on his masterpiece, It wal erected in 280 B.C, An earthquake tumbled it 83 years later. The story handed down through the years is that the statue stood with a beacon in its hands and one foot on each side of the harbor entrance, with enough clearance for ships to pass underneath. Maryon said he has determined from a study of classical inseript- tions that the statue was in fact 120 feet high and the harbor 600 feet wide, wich would make the famous straddle an anatomical impossibility.

Furthermore, he said, his research indicated the heroic figure was not cast in one piece, as hitherto supposed, but was made of bronse sheets beaten into shape and riveted together. Maryon estimated the thickness of the sheets as equal to that of a British penny a 18th of an inch. Locked Mystery SEATTLE E. Trimmer reported to police that before retiring he put $40 in his sock, bolted the door of his apartment from the inside, put the sock on his foot, climbed into bed and went to sleep. When he woke up in the morning he reported, the $40 was gone but the sock still was on his foot ing of UM motor vtftttt tor's license applieafe full swing today at Revenue fiefwrtmeat A temporary staff of have been hired to estimated 4,800,000 i Motor Vehicles Bureau receive this year.
