Disarmament.

London, Dec. 23.-Davld Lloyd
George, the prime minister. presiding
at a luncheon given in the house or
commons for the British and domin-
ion delegates to the recent League OF
Nations assembly in Geneva, declared
the league would never achieve
real progress until all the nations
were represented
There could be no real peace, de-
clared the prime minister, until com
petition In ornaments ceased, and be-
fore disarmament was possible all
the nations must be in the league
for all must march together.
Mr. Lloyd George said all nations
must reach n common agreement not
to start again disastrous rivalry in
ornaments, which must inevitably end
in clash.
The league has already done much,
the prime minister asserted. For one
thing, II has raised the status Of labor
throughout the world, and the labor
bureau was doing great things, The
leagues most conspicuous work, he
said, probably was the establishment
Of tho international court Of justice,
which would have a very determining
effect on international Justice in the
future.
No League Of Nationu, however
could possibly be regarded as com
plete until the United States was In
cluded, Mr.. Lloyd George declared.

Secretary Says New Sources
of Revenue Must Be Found
to Aid Treasury.

Next Fiscal Year.

forecast by Secretary Houston IN
speaking on the soldiers bonus bill.
He said the government must IND
new sources Of revenue and incur no
new burdens.
Considered aside from the public
debt, Mr.. Houston said, the ordinary
receipts for this year should exceed
ordinary expenditures by about $SOO,-
100000, and next year the excess
should be S556,00OOO0. These sums,
however, are inadequate TO take care
of the interest on the public debt,
which is about 81 100000 annually
Mr. Houston said, as well as the III
terest on the current floating debt ana
the total laid aside annually for re-
firing the public debt.

Mr.. Houston. 1--WE face, in addition
the fact that many sources Of revenue
are declining, so we will have TO look
around for new sources to tap Without
placing greater burdens on the treas
ury."
Asked as to what sources OF reye-
nue. were declining, the secretary SAID
principally the excess profits tax, but
that the productivity Of higher groups
Of income taxes also was falling on.
He cited internal revenue figures
showing a steady decline in tax pay
ments by those receiving larger IN

Mr.. Houston warned, incidentally
against "tamperlng with the sinking

The secretary expressed the belief
that the solution Of the problem Of

financing rather than by government
action. There were indications, he
said, that exports would continue to
Increase without treasury help.
Asked regarding the status of the
government loans TO the allied and as.

the treasury had not yet reached an
agreement with them relative to final

added have paid any interest In actual

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect 1t
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview on the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is so
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
tions are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. 1t is on sale,
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to, DIR.

SAYS u. S. WILL NULLIFY LAW
Japan Is Told New Treaty Will Make
California Bow to
Tokyo.

Tokyo, Dec. 27.-Addressing prelim-
mary meetings of the diet, ViscOunt
Uchida, foreign minister, expressed
the opinion that new Japanese
American treaty would be concluded,
leading to notification OF the Cali
fornia land law. He said he expected
such action to result from negotiations
at Washington between Ambassador
ShideharG and Roland S. Morris,
United States ambassador TO Japan.
The ambassadors, he said, were
making efforts to obtain an under
standing with the senate to obtain
passage of the treaty. He announced
that, in view Of their sincerity, Japan
had refrained from protesting against
the California law, but that If the ne
gotiations should fail a formal protest
would be lodged.
Ansv ing Interpretations, Mr.
Uchida said the negotiations were pro.
ceeding under the understanding that
such treaty would override the state
law.

FINANCES ON A SOLID BASE

Washington, Dec. 27.-The nation Is
SAFE financially. 1t will weather the
storms OF the future. 1t is better able
to care for itself than any other ma
ton Oh the globe. The United States
Is the greatest financial and economic
power Of the world now and will con
tinue to WELD that power far into the
coming years.
This was the holiday message given
In composite form to the people by
Secretary of the Treasury Houston
Governor Harding of the Federal Ike
serve board, Comptroller OF the Cur
rency Williams and others intimately
associated with them in contr9 OF ifs
cal affairs.
Optimism features all of their eX-
pressions in summing up the year 1870
and the business outlook for the aeW
year.
Banks and business concerns, in re
ports to these guiding forces in gov
eminent finance, discount the nlpor-
lance of the few recent bank failures

mittedly great, and business reactions
which are noted as result OF the
credit strains incident to REIMBURSEMENT

Call Setback Healthy.
Transition through which business
is now passing, these officials said, is
uncomfortable and involves possible
loss in some directions, but they all
contend that it is healthy process"
far more helpful economically than
continuation of the mad race in prof
iteerng" the chief factor in the iptla-
ton evil, now sought to be checked.
These officials were frank to say
that some lines Of business may be
expected to pass through further rig
orous reimbursement and reOrganiza-
ton, but expressed confidence that
transition will be accomplished with
out undue strain upon the present
strong banking structure"
In financial sense the war is not
over, these officials agreed. The tis-
cal situation at home and abroad is
disturbed by failure to fix the German
indemnity.
Secretary Houston placed particu-
lar emphasis upon the handicaps that
have been put upon other nations by
the failure to determine earlier the
amount Germany must pay.
Turning Point Here.
Listen to this gery carefully worded
observation by Governor Harding:
"The transition through which the
community is now passing, while nee
essarily uncomfortable, has thus far
been accompanied with only a mini
mum of the unfavorable symptoms de-
veloped on other occasions.
"The close of the year 1920, in spite
of the fact that in some branches of
economic and financial life there is
still much progress to be made before
reaching a definite basis for further
growth. must he regarded as the turn
ing point in the process of transition
from conditions produced by the war
to the normal economic basis Of inter-
national and industrial life
Secretary Houston and Governor
Harding both said that the year has
been a period of decided advance in
the process of REIMBURSEMENT, conse-
uuent UPON conditions which the war
brought upon the world.
