ARTICE VIII, Continued
Reciprocal Concessions


Under Article VII we covenant to
keep within the limits we agree to for
ten years, when the whole plan is sub
ject to revision-meantime, should
conditions change, the Council has
power to increase the limit for any
government needing it. More than
this, we can at any time withdraw
from all the obligations of the league
including this one, on two years no
tice.
1t is to be noted that we agree to
limit our armament in consideration
of the fact that every other league
members makes a similar promise as
to it's armament. Our reduction and
limit are to be proportionate to those
of other members. Their reduction
lessons the necessity for our defense
as does the compulsory reduction of
the ornaments of our enemies in thi
war. We are not thus left naked to
our enemies" whether of this war
or any future war, in any other way
than that they are equally "naked"
to US.
Plea for Consistency
The necessity for reduction of ar
mament to avoid danger of war has
long been recognized and acquiesced
in by all nations except Germany. w
were among the most earnest in seek
ing limit or reduction of armament
at the Hague Conferences but Ger
many peremptorily refused. Are W.
now to change our attitude on this
crucial question? Did we think that
in urging it at the Hague we were to
make ourselves "naked to our enc
miles," by entering such an agree
ment? Were we only hypocrites wher
we pressed it upon the conferees a
the Hague?
If the great continental powers
of Europe and Asia, where the dan
ger of war is much more probable
than here, can afford to limit their
ornaments by convention, can we not
do so, when the Atlantic separates
us from Europe and the Pacific from
Asia.
More than this, is there not hui
morous phase of this objection wher
we consider the consistent course of
this country since the beginning Of
its history? In spite of the urging O.
Washington and many of his success
sors, we never have had an adequate
armament until after war has come
Not even for mere police duty have
we had sufficient regular army in
time of peace. From soon after the
Civil War, until the Spanish War
period of thirty years, with Indians
campaigns frequently recurring, for
people increasing from fifty to ninety
millions, we had only $4,000 men in
our regular army-and since the
Spanish war, we have never been able
to increase that army from one
hundred thousand; while in all the de
tails of proper preparatory equipment
we were wanting
We can be sure, therefore, that the
Council will recommend limit of ar
mament for US that congress VIII

January is the anniversary of the
first balloon ascension in this coun-
try. 1t was made in Philadelphia a
1893, and it is interesting in view of
the rapid strides in aeronauttcs made
in the past few years. Even twenty
five years ago the idea of a dirigible
airship was largely a dream.

MILLIONS
Suffer from
Acid-StoI1lactl

Millions OF people suffer year after year
from ailments affecting practically every
part of the body. never dreaming that their
III health can be traced directly to acid-5tom-
ach. Here Is the reason: poor digestion
means poor nourishment of the different
organs and tissues of the body. The blood is
observation-disclosures weak, thin, sluggish.
Ailments of many kinds spring from such
conditions. Bilousness. rheumatism, lum-
bago, seiatica, general weakness. loss of
power and energy, headache, insomnia,
nervousness. mental depression-ev even more
serious ailments such as catarrh and cancer
of the stomach, intestinal ulcers, cirrhosis
of the liver, heart trouble-an of these can
often be traced directly to acid stomach
Keep sharp lookout for the first symptoms
of acid-stom NATURALIZATION heartburn,
belching, food repeating, that awful painful
bloat after eating. and sour, gassy stomach.
EATONIC, the wonderful modern remedy for
acid-stomach. Is guaranteed to bring quick
relief fromthese stomach miSeries. Thousands

bring such speedy rehef-and make them feel
so much better In every way. Try EATONIC

its praise. Make your life worth living-no
aches or pains-no blues or melancholy-no
more of that tired, listless feeling Be well

We should be justified in far more
concern if the league imposed on Us
specific obligation as to minimum
armamemnt.
Not Uncons titutional
But it is said that it is unconstitu-
tional for our treaty making power to
agree to limit of armament. The
supreme court in many cases has de
clded that the treaty-making power
conferred in the constitution is q
very broad one, and that it includes
the making of contracts with other
nations on any subject matter usually
within the scope of treaty
between nations, and that there are
no limitations on it except that
treaty can not change our form of
government or cede land of one of
our states without it's consent. Now
the limitations of armament has been
a very frequent subject matter dealt
with in treaties. Indeed every one rec
oniZes that it is most appropri-
ate subject in this very treat!
of which the league is part in re
spect to the fixing of the armament
of Germany, More than this, we have
a treaty with Great Britain for one
hundred years in which we agreed to
limit our armament, and we have re-
ligiously kept tin 1917, we mutu-
ally agreed with Great Britain not
to put naval armament on the Great
Lakes between US and Canada, and
that treaty is still in force. 1t would
be difficult to imagine more con-
vincing precedent than this. In the
Clayton-Bulwer treaty of 1850, con
corning the construction of a canal
in Central America from one ocean
to the other, we mutually agreed not
to fortify the canal when built. Our
power to limit armament in treaty
is thus indisputable in view of pre-
cedent and judicial authority. Our
duty by joining the family of civil
lied nations in such an agreement to
put stop to the awful race of ar
maments, if unrestrained, sure to
involve the world again in all its evils
is equally clear.
