NOT ALL AT ONCE.
Wilson Says No Immediate
Emancipation From Old Order.
Upon Development of Interna.
tionaI Law Depends Much.

Paris, May 10.-In a brief epigram-
matte speech at a dinner recently
President Wilson touched on the flu
tdre role of international law in the
development of the new order of
things.
"One OF the things that has dis
turbed me in recent months" he said.
lis the unqualified hope men have
entertained everywhere of immediate
emancipation from the things that
have hampered and oppressed them.
You cannot, in human experience,
rush into the light. You have to go
thru twilight into the broadening day
before noon comes and the full sun
is on the landscape. We must see to
appointed by showing them the proc
esses by which the hope must be real
iZed-the processes of law. the proc
esses of slow disentanglement from
the many things that have bound US
in the past.
The intelligent development of in
ternational law will be one of the
things of most consequence to men in
the future. If we can now give to in
ternational law the kind of vitality it
can have only if it is the real express
sion of our moral judgment, we shall
have completed in some sense the
work which this war was intended to
emphasize"
The president concluded by saying:
In a sense the old international
law is played out. The future of man.
kind depends more upon the relations
of nations to one another than upon
the separate and selfish development
of the national systems law"
The dinner was that of the Interna-
tional Law Society association. OF
which Sir Thomas Barclay is president

TODAY'S MARKET REPORTS

Chicago. May 12-CORN-Corn took a
decided upturn in value today owing to
smallness of receipts and to predictions
that there would be a renewal of wet
weather likely to result in more delays to
planting. Reports were also current that
chances of speedy settlement of the New
York harbOr strike had been buch i'm
proved. Commission houses and shorts
were the principal buyers. Opening prices.

any man learning all there is know
even of his own business.
The morning program closed with
an address by r. Goodholm of Linds-
borg, on Free Engraving" in which
he pointed out that the days of free
engraving were almost thing of the
past, owing to the tremendous adj
vance in the salaries of workmen and
the cost of material.
The afternoon program opened at
o'clock with the report of the legis-
lative league and an address on "Or-
ganization Service That Functions"
by A. L. Oliger, secretary of the
Chamber of Commerce. At o'clock
H. Victor Wright of Los Angeles, on
behalf of the research bureau of the
national association, expounded to the
jewellers the principles of his record
and accounting method he has worked
out in conjunction with G.. A. Brock,
national president.
Discuss War Tax.
Then followed a general discussion
of various phases of the business, in
Guiding the new government war tax,
the reports of committees and the
election of officers. At 6:15 ban
Duet will be served in the Chamber
of Commerce dining hall and at 7:45
the members will be the guests of the
Chamber of Commerce at a Theater
line party.
The prevailing fashions in jewelry
came in for a liberay discussion in the
course of the day. Fashions in
colts make fashions in hair ornaments
and cause styles in pins and combs to
come and go, it was pointed out. To-
day the low coiffure is notica BILE for
its majority among all other hair
dressings, both for day and for eve
ming wear, and in consequence the
ornaments most appropriate for use
with these neat, tight, low knotted
coifs are the ones now in demand.
Earrings are noticeable again. AS
the new couture is allowing the least
! bit of the lower part of the ear-lobe
| to show, advantage of this has been
taken by those to whom earrings are
becoming and beneath the fluff puffed
| hair dressings may be seen ear pend
| ants of leaning shafts of faceted pale
yellow topaz.
Wear Single Sidecombs.
Single side combs and fancy pins
| used in pairs are the leading orna-
| ments now. The side comb is large
| Spanish type with a fluted edge of
carved ivory or tortoise shell, or of
open work platinum set with gems.
| Placed sidewise. at the left side of the
we'll out and shows from the front
most becomingly.
| Whether the new veil pins have
made the small hat popular or vice
| versa, fascinating little rhinestones.
gold or gem-set veil pins are now in
| fashion. They come in every conceiy-
able material, pattern and design and
are evidently here to stay. They are
used to hold the veil in place at the
! upper edge at the center of the turban
and they have been found to be ex-
ceedingly handy.

Fifty Years Without Loss to an Inuestor
The Proof of the
Pudding

IT is easy enough to make the statement
that we believe that first mortgages are
the safest investment in the world.
But the proof of that statement is in the
experience of those who have purchased first
mortgage notes through us during the last
fifty years.
Not single investor has suffered the
loss of dollar in principal or interest in that
time. and every interest payment has been
met promptly on the day due.

American. Legion Has Made De- teImined Efforts to Aid Soldiers Injured in Great War.

Washington, Dec. 1S.--Delegates of the American Legion returned home today after three days spent in out lining to members of congress and officials of the war risk insurance bureau legislation the organization considered necessary for the needs of the eX-service men.
 Resolutions were adopted calling upon congress for early action on all measures affecting former service mon. Relief for those who have not, they said, received justice through the administration of the insurance and compensation regulations also was requested.
 In a summary of their recommen- dations. the delegates urged immedi- ate passage of the Wason and Sweet bills, the consolidation of the bureau of war risk insurance, federal board for vocational education and the pub lie health service, modification of in surance regulations, wider applca- tion of vocational training and more liberal pay for. the students, i'm provement of hospital facilities and granting allowances for total dis ability to tuberculosis patients.
