JAPAN'S POSITION
IN PACIFIC PROBLEM

WASHINGTON. July 16.-Japan op-
poses the discussion Of specific Far
Eastern questions in the forthcoming
Washington disarmament conference. It
developed today.
She agrees TO a discussion Of Far East
ern questions from the standpoint Of
broad general principles, II was made
clear 10 the United Press.
Tolay's attitude OF Japan was re-
fec.ed in her reply to the American in
vitation to the conference which asked
In effect whether the Far Eastern aues-
tons were to be taken up specifically or
IN p general way
This development together with an
exclusive statement by Premier Hara
to the United Press offered the key to
the heretofore unexplained action Of
Japan in welcoming disarmament discus
sion in the coming conference. but with
holds acceptance of discussion Of spe-
cifc affairs. 1t was noted the statement
OF the japanese premier, which was
furnished to Secretary OF State Hughes
did not mentor the Pacific phase Of the
coming conference.
BY praising the forthcoming gathering
rs simply a disarmament conference"
Hara was celebrating on Japan's official
reply to the Uaited States "wholehearted-
IL" accepting the invitation to a dis
armament conference It was pointed
out. and making a reservation regarding
the proposed discussion Of Pacific ques-
tons
President Harding's suggestion for
disarmament conference has been re-
ceived with enthusiasm In Japan" Hara
stated
Japan's position regarding discussion
Of Pacific problems in the disarmament
conference vas explained to the United
Press ia authoritative quarters as fol
lows:
l. Japan is fearful of having specific
problems Of the Far East discussed in
the conference Of the five powers on the
ground that this would make these ques-
lions more difficult of settlement.
?. Because OF her special" position in
the Far East, Japan feels that such speci-
&c questions do not properly belong in
the discussion of a conference OF all the
powers, any more than would questions
between the United States and Mexico or
some other Latin American country.
Japan's greatest fear concerning a dis
cussion Of Far Eastern questions in the
disarmament conference, 1t was also
learnedo. is her interests in China, such a
Shantung.
Secretary Hughes has Informed Ambas-
sador Shidehara that the view Of the
United States in regard to the japanese
inquiry is:
There will he discussion between the
nations to reach an agreement on what
subjects are to be taken. up at the con-
ference.
But Japan must first accept or reject
the proposed Pacific discussion in prin-
ciple before the agenda OF the conference
Is decided upon.
Hughes is also understood to be send
ing a communication to Toxic to this
effect.

mission continue its consideration OF
disarmament and forward a copy Of all
debates to Washington.
Rene Viviani. head Of the commission.
in opening the meeting. referred to Presi-
dent Hardings proposal for a disarma-
ment conference in Washington. He said
that e was quite likely that the disar-
mament activities Of the league would
meet the same fate as covenant amend
ments and league mandates. both OF
which were adjourned by the league
members until America could participate
actively in the debates
1t was believed that rather than run
opposition 10 the Pres deut's disarmament
project the League Of Nations commission
would only hold a formal meeting and
then adjourn indefinitely
The three subjects which the commits
sion was scheduled to first take up were
l. Prohibition Of private manufacture
Of arms.
.. Non increase of military budgets.
3. Ratification OF the international
agreement on the arms traffic.
Il was agreed TO draw up a recon-
mendation to all governments that manu-
facture of war materials be made a gov
eminent monopoly. on the second item
the commission has replies from about
thirty governments to the request ad-
dressed them by the first assembly Of
t'- LEAGUE last December asking them to
agree not to Increase their military budg
cts for two years over that OF the
present year. These replies probably win
be made public.
Replies have been received from about
fifteen nations which were asked to radfy
the international agreement limiting thu
traffic in arms which was drawn up and
signed at the same times as the st. Ger
main treaty. The United States was
among the slgnatories.

CANNED GOODS
JUDGING


Miss Lula Tunison, in charge of
girls club work, reports that 10 girls
competed for honos in judging canned
goods, each of whom did well. The
winner from the ranks of first year
club members was Wilma Gum, of
Newton; from the second year mem
bers, Lucy Tillman, Of Copiah; from
the third year ranks, Vera Mae Har-
ris, Copiah, and the fourth year Inie-
ia Laughlin, Of Tallahatchie. Inieta
also won the sweepstakes prize of $25
in cash, over all canning contestants.
The purpose of this contest is to
teach better standards for home-can-
ned products and to call attention to
the different grades Of such products
on the market. AS similar contests
have been held in every county send
ing representatives to the State Fair,
this purpose, it is felt, has been ac-
complished in part, though as an edu-
cational matter it will require constant
attention in order to keep it before the
home makers Of the nation.

Guides Pepto-Mangan Makes Red
Blood; Liquid and Tablet Form.


When blood becomes thin and weak
It is due to falling off in the num-
Der of red blood cells. It is easily
recognized by pallid skin or blem-
ished complexion, loss Of appetite or
unnatural irritability and a sensation
of weakness. It is not dangerous at
first. In fact, many people scarcely
notice and go on for days, thinking
they will be better the next day.
The great danger is in the POSSIBLE
ity of becoming seriously i'll from di-
sease, which can work havoc in a body
that lacks the endurance and resist
ance in rich, red blood.
Taken in time and steadily, a few
bottles of GUIDES epto-Mangan are a
great help. It improves the quality
of the blood by adding red blood cells.
They check the weakness, improve the
appetite, and clear the complexion.
You can get GUIDES Pepto-Mangan
in liquid and tablet form at your
druggists. Get the genuine with the
name Guides Pepto-Mangan" on the
package. Advertisement.
