PARIS, Aug. 1s.-- The British-Persian
agreement continues to be subject Of
violent discussion in the French press.
The comment has become more acrid
since the text was published in London.
The trend Of opinion is that Great
Pritain practised secret diplomacy all
the time the conference was in session.
thus violating the entire principle Of
a League Of Nations while President
Wilson was in Europe. The fact has
been disclosed that the London negotia-
lions went on for nine months. and this

to-day. The newspaper points out that
negotiations began Immediately after the
signing OF the armistice. The paper
says:
Those were the days when President
Wilson went to London. where he agreed
to discard at hast one of his fourteen
points, namely. freedom Of the seas.
which straightway dropped to the bottom
Of the ocean. 1t must now be asked:
Was President Wilson on the same
occasion informed OF British designs on
Persian Did he accept the viewpoint
that Persia wasn't to belong to the
League OF Nations. and therefore that
any private agreement concluded with
her was legitmate7 Also It must be

British pretsnsions to the contrary Per-

''The pact Of the League Of Nations
states that members OF the league agree
to respect and maintain against all ag-
gression the territorial integrity and po-
litical Independence OF all members OF
the league" says tho paper. "In an
appendix Persia figures among the
states invited to Join the league. Does
one argue that the league is not yet In
operation? Does one say that Persia Is
not yet admitted7"
II doesn't seem unlikely that reaction
to the Persian affair in France may be
carried to the Chamber OF Deputies,

Sweden Ordered S
Then Cabled for rs

The FIRST shipment Of Essex cars reached
Sweden few days ago. The initial order was
for 5. But on the day they were unioaded the
dealer cabied for rs to be shipped Immediately.
That is significant, for Sweden is one of the
countries where gasoline costs nearly a dollar
gallon. Even before the war European coun-
tries did not take readily to American cars.
Only the light. small, inexpensive cars had
market then.
Cost Of operation was the big item. Gaso-
line and oil prices made large cars impractical
But the Essex just met the needs. It has
the sturdiness and dependability Europeans
had never attributed to moderate priced
American cara. The Essex met their demands
for economy and low operating cost.

Surely no car has ever equaled the Essex in
tfe way It has been endorsed by the public.
From the very first it has been advertised Just

You remember we announced the Essex

II is when these two theories come

The second theory is realistic. II
holds that even rs force ended and

he fails. If he upsets the military vic

To Absorb Freckles
And Other Blen1ishes

Every spring numerous inquiries are
made by girls seeking some reliable re-
cipe for removing freckles. Very faF-
orable reports have been received from
many who have used mercouzed wax
during the freckling season. The wax
seems to possess unusual properties
which completely absorb the freckles,
with no harmful effect whatever. The
complexion improves wonderfully, be-
coming as soft as rose petal, and as
delicately tinted. Get an ounce OF
ordinary mercoliZed wax at any drug

entire face every night for while
washing this off in the morning. For

heads, pimples and all cutaneous blem-
ishes, this treatment is superior to any
