CABINET TAKES
UP CONFERENCE

WASHINGTON, July 15.-The forth
coming disarmament conference was
scheduled for discussion by the Presi-
dent and his cabinet today, with special
consideration OF the problem presented
By the partial acceptance Of Japan. While
officials express the belief that Japan
viii find It convenient without much
further delay to extend its acceptance TO
include the discussion Of far eastern
problems as well as the question OF dis
armament, It IS admitted that a confer
ence on problems OF the Pacific would not
get far in the direction OF an under
Standing II Japan were unrepresented.
Japan has asked the United States for
a statement as tc the scope Of the pro
posed discussion Of a Pacific and Far
Eastern policy IN the forthcoming dis
armament conference, It was learned Of
fcialIy today.
State Department officials refused to
state whether this Government had made
reply to the japanese communica ton. but
the impression prevailed that the state
Department has forwarded an answer.
L. S. ATTITUDE ON
JAPANESE INQUIRY.
The attitude Of the United States with
regard 20 the japanese inquiry IS that
'it Is not for this Nation TO determine
definitely the scope OF the Far Eastern
discussion but that this is a matter to be
decided BY the powers concerned and par
ticipating in the conference"
This Government is Of the opinion hat
there should be preliminary negOtiati, :
between the parties TO the conference 10
an exchange OF views as 10 the bread.e
OF the discussion. Il IS understood that
this viewpoint has been communicated tc
Japan.
The Informal invitation Of President
Harding, it was pointed out, calls for a
discussion Of general principles Of far
eastern policy and does not indicate that

WORK, SAVE, BE
FRUGAL, HONEST,
SAYS HOOVER
Tells Realtors How to Combat
Evils Set in Motion by
Pos War Boom.

CHICAGO July 15.-Herbert Hoover.
Secretary Of Commerce today placed most
Of the blame for present business depres-
sion upon forces set in motion by the
postwar boom. The Government is using
sanity and caution" to aid business re-
covery, he said and Is sure of success in
correcting many economic handlcaps now
evident.
Hoover made an address before the Ma
tional Association of Real Estate Boards.
This is the thirteenth industrial de-
preston we have suffered since the civil
war" the secretary said I'VE have come
through the twelve others all right. We
have today greater resources and no less
courage, skill and intelligence than when
we met these disasters before.
FORCES WHICH AID
IN UPBUILDING.
I'VE now have forces working in the
country Of a quality fever experienced.
First. we have now provided a financial
system that has saved Us from the terrible
destruction OF a monetary panic that
otherwise would have accompanied so tre-
mendous fall In values. Second, we
have a higher sense Of service, a wider
spread Willingness to give aid to the in
iured in business
no uraAus "a III lis " HAbHc NtlSNS EtUAl4S@
hopeless months ago are on the road to
safety From the war we have to recover
many losses and to change our productive
forces In accordance with the economic
shifts IN the world.
Spreading over all this however, lies
the fact that this depression is to a great
degree born Of the malevoent forces we
set in motion by imitation and by all
booms
I'VE must suffer period Of duress from
war and punishment for the boom until
we rebuild our virtues Of hard work,
frugal living. more saving. sober conduct
land higher honesty. There are few
people who win not accept these hard
facts who will persist in the notion that
they can, by various devices, avoid reap
ing what they have sowed,
RESISTANCE ADDS
TO PROBLEM.
THE resistance Of few groups Of
manufacturers or dealers to lowering
prices to the general level the resistance
Of few groups OF workers TO accom-
modation Of their wage TO the decreasing
cost Of living and the necessity Of
better days work: the refusal Of some
people 70 curtan their extravagance, all
contribute to our undoing. They de-
lay recovery and contribute to unemplOy-
ment among the rest Of u.s.
Secretary Hoover said he had records
showing that IN most manufacturing es-
tablishments efficiency has increased from
20 to 30 per cent during the last twelve
months He said the farmers are making
extraordinary efforts this year and viii
produce this years crop at much less than
last years crop cost.
