TAT I ANALyZES
KNOX OBJECTIONS
Former President Delivers
Address Before New York
Economic Club.

NEW YORK. Mar. 12.-Analyzing
Sen. KnoX's objections 20 the pro-
posed covenant of the league of ma
lions, former Pres't William H. Taft
in an address here tonight before
the Economic club, declared that the
covenant does not transfer the soy
ereignty of this nation to the gov
erning body of the league which
Sen. Knox asserts the executive
council TO be.
When Sen. KnoX's attack upon
the validity of the covenant is an
alyzed it will seem 10 rest on an as
sumption that the executive council
is given executive powers which is
unwarranted by the text Of the COW
enant," said Mr.. Taft. The whole
function of the executive council is
TO be the medium through which
the league members are TO exchange
views, the advisory board TO con-
slider all matters arising in the field
of the leagues possible action and
20 advise the members as TO what
they ought by joint action TO do.
THE council makes few if any
orders binding on the members of
the league. After a members of the
league has agreed not to exceed
limit of armament, TIE executive
council must consent to raising the
limit Where the executive council
acts as a mediating and inquirine
body 10 settle differences not arbi-
trated. its unanimous recomme nda-
ton Of a settlement must satisfy the
nation seeking relief. if the defend
ant nation complies with the rec
ommendation.
These are the only cases in which
the United States as member Of
the league would be bound by action
of the executive council. All other
obligations OF the United States un-
der the league are 10 be found in
the covenants of the league and not
in any action of the executive cOun-
ell When this is understood clear

Alkali Makes Soap
Bad For Washing Hair

Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkal. which
is very injurious as it dries the
scalp and makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is just plain
mulsified cOcoanut oil, for this is
pure and entirely greaseless. It's
very cheap, and beats the most eX-
pensive soaps or anything else all to
pieces. You can get this at any
drug store. and a few ounces will
last the whole family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it i'm, about a teaspOOnful
is all that is required. II makes an
abundance of rich, cream leather,
cleanses thoroughly. and rinses out
easily The hair dries quickly and
evenly, and is soft, fresh looking,
bright. fluffy. wavy and easy TO han
die. Besides. il loosens and takes
out every particle of dust, dirt and
dandruff.
