nurse attends no bulletins are being issued in regard to tho kings health the presence of a nurse one of the four who attended tho king during hi3 siege three years ago is explained by tho fact that she is now perman ently attached to the royal stall and is in residence at tho castle with the rest ot the court in 192s the king stood bareheaded in the rain before the london ceno taph during the armistice day cere monies that night he had a bad cold and within a week his physi cians put him to bed pleurisy de veloped and the whole world for a time feared that ho would die for weeks he lay

european proposal will not be entertained before washington a friendly hut firm no will bo the united states ans wer to any european roposal to limit tho size of battleships hefore expira tion ot tho london naval treaty in 193g it was said authoritatively re cently this pronouncement was evoked by reports from europe that london shortly would propose battleship size limitation to washington and toklo the state department said the intend ed proposal had not been reported yet through diplomatic channels in replying to such a prosopal the state department would point out that the washington and london treaties effectively disposed of bat tleships until 1936 hence discussion of this class of ships now would be in this governments opinion to re vive a dead issue the reported clamor for scaling down the size of battleships is a by product of the recent british-franco- italian naval agreement under its terms franco and italy were allowed to build two capital ships which they decided should be
