Annapolis, Md.-At least year, pos
sibly two years, will be required be-
fore the nation can return to normal
peace conditions, and eve will be for
tunate if conditions abroad make de-
mobilization possible at so early a
date" said Secretary Daniels, address
ing the conference of State Governors.
The navy, said the Secretary, must
be in creased and strengthened to en-
able the United States to contribute
as many units as any other nation to
an international police force, but he
added: 'Tlook to see the peace con-
ference put an end to competitive big

Discussing the nations attitude
coward railroads, telegraphs and other
public utilities, Secretary Daniels
said: "The American people will do
with them what they believe is best

'bugaboo of government ownership
which scares some timid people, or
the belief in the principle of govern
ment ownership by those who would
prefer to carry out their theory that

should be tested by what it will ac-

standard, The idea that government

has no longer any weight" Mr.. Dan
iels urged the governors to do all pos
sible to prevent child labor and to as
sist the federal government in cam
paign to eradicate social diseases.
Warning against over-optirnistic
hopes for the return of all American
soldiers from abroad, Secretary Dan
iels said:
SIT required year and half, with
ability to contract with British ships,
to help carry 100000 soldiers to
France. Even if there was no need for
soldiers oyerSeas--and that need is APP
parent-it would be fine organiza
ton that could land them home in a

into transports to help in this big
job, and men in the naval service are
being rapidly brought home. But-some
ships and some men must stay until
a permanent peace bless the world. !

ONE LITTLE PIMPLE SPO|LS
A BEAUTIFUL FACE

No matter how beautiful the fea-
lures, how radiant the complexion,
just one little pimple spoils it all.
Not always can these little facial
blemishes be prevented for they may
be caused by the too frequent use of
irritating soaps, powders, rouge or
possibly impure blood.
Every care should be taken to pre-
serve the skin, especially the fact.
neck, arms and hands. Only the pur-
est and best sterilized toilet soap
could be used to cleanse the skin and
when a face powder must be used,
one of the highest quality should be
selected.
When a pimple pops out on your
face, you don't have to remain in
doors or try to hide it, Simply
touch the little spot with Black and
White Ointment. 1t will vanish al
most like magic. This little aid to
beauty is such a necessary toilet re-
quisite for removing facial blemishes,
