Kálzana, the mineral food för better health, contains all the strength-giving materials which will make your body strong. Kalzana, protects you against infectious diseases, such as malaria. Kalzana makes you thoroughly strong, so that you can enjoy undisturbed life to the full:

"I was frequently suffering from headaches, muscular fatigues, and other ailments, but after trying Kalsana my many ills disappeared like magic. I am an entirely new man now, thanks to Kalzana--the mineral food for better health-which gives me radiant health and vitality,,,

MUNICH, PARIS, ROME

In

How much does the Hitler-Cham-

berlain agreement mean? some quarters it is being read as an Anglo-German alliance; in others as a mere gesture de- signed to make the partition of Czechoslovakia more palatable to Englishmen. Probably, it is neither. It is

much more likely that it repre- sents à sincere expression of the wishes of the signatories, It is known, for instance, that

the policy he is pursuing along the lines he is pursuing it." Dartford's electors have shown that very clearly and emphati- cally, Nevertheless, if there is sincerity in the Hitler-Chamberlain de- claration, its general terms cannot be criticised any more than the general terms of the Kellogg Pact, which pledged all the nations to peaceable adjustments. It is only when what the diplomats call "imple- mentation" is considered that questions and criticism arise. France is already, disturbed. But French uneasiness possibly will be allayed by Mr. Chamber- lain's proposed visit to Paris, reaffirming British-French ties and associating France with any efforts for general Euro- pean appeasement. This step is expected to help M. Daladier meet attacks from those in France who believe the Munich - agreement left France without real allies in Eastern Europe and bound her to the wheel of British German policy. Serious criticism from France

and from British opposition groups will await further steps to carry the general terms into effect, Probably most Englishmen feel that even a weakened France must be Britain's first friend in Europe.

In his recent book, "Britain and the Dictators," R. W. Seton- Watson expressed the view that,

an Anglo-German understanding, is inconceivable, and indeed not of much value, save on a triangular basis. Yet triangles are always awk- ward and this one is really a quadrangle, with one corner in Rome. London is talking about Chamberlain visit to Italy after Paris, to obtain a real settle-

and cement the putting of the Anglo-Italian agreement into effect. This may be done if Mussolini is able to get out of Spain. Then what comes next? An Anglo-German non-aggres- sion air pact? A German re- turn to a Geneva divorced from Versailles? A colonial settle- ment? And some device by which Germany's exclusive eco- nomy can live beside Britain's freer one?

Herr Hitler. has made friendment of the Spanish trouble ship with Britain the key to his foreign policy. Mein Kampf leaves France a bit- ter enemy of Germany to be exterminated, but the same ob- jective is not contemplated as far, as the United Kingdom is concerned. Not that Hitler's recent speeches lend any comfort to those who believe that by consultation

way can be found for Europe to live peaceably. The recent attacks on British political leaders whom Herr Hitler chooses to describe as war-mongers have been, on the contrary, extreme- ly disturbing,

There is no immediate prospect of a clash of direct national: in- terests.But: nationht ideals are far from: accordant. And the working out of the Hitler- be
