Washington, Nov. 9.-The Ameri-
can delegation has agreed that all
plenary sessions of the Arms Limf-
tation Conference shall be open.
Senator Lodge, one of America s
delegates, told the United Press
today.
This means that whenever the
full membership of the conference
meets. the press will be present, If
the American view prevails.
Similar to Congress.
The American delegations belief,
it was revealed, is that the confer
ence should function somewhat SIM
liar to congress. Various questions
before the conference will be turn
ed over TO committees. These com
mittees probably will hold secret
sessions although this has not yet
been determined, Lodge said.
Then under the American plan
when a committee has agreed upon
a program it will be taken before
I0e IuIl conference anu tUTbSUeu UUt
in the open just as is done in con-
gress.
The American delegation has dis
cussed the question thoroughly and
has agreed on fullest publicity.
Committee Meetings Secret.
The American delegation has
given no consideration to throwing
open such proceedings of the con-
ference as committee meetings and
there is no thought that the public
ity plan will be so ambitious.
Il don't believe the press is to be
excluded from any of the full ses-
sions of the conference" Lodge
said. THAT question has been
thoroughly discussed by the Ameri-
can delegation. | think undoubted-
lv it is intended to have the press
admitted to all the full, or pIenary
sessions of the conference
Il am not speaking with the au-
thority of the American delegation,
but that it is my personal under
standing of what will be done"

NOTICE OF
CUT SERVED
ON WORKERS
Swift S avs Companies
Have Held Off as Long
as Possible.

Chicago, Nov. Omitted PressD
Notice was served on packer en-
ployes of the country today that
wages must be reduced immeL late-
ly.
The big FIVE" packe-s informed
company unions of he desire OF
the employers to open negotiations
at once to arrange a wage cut.
The move of packers to cut
wages followed the declaration OF
an open shop in the industry after
the agreement under which wages
were set during the war period,
expired on Sept. 10.
Unions Vote Strike.
The regular union organizations
have voted TO strike against the
open shop declarations and have
bitterly fought company unions"
These were formed last spring and
the wage cut is the first matter
brought up for their consideration.
In the notice sent the plant as
sembly, as the company unions are
termed, no definite amount for the
proposed wage cut was named.
4@bu4o AoN4Ii- "a NotA-AtA Vi NAAN
Swift Packing company, in a lettee
TO the plant assembly of his conn
cern, declared the company had
reduced expenses in every other
way before announcing the need
of a wage reduction.
~Great Necessity
I'VE trust members of our or
ganization realize that We want
them to suffer as little hardship
as possible from the hard times
which have befallen the coun-
try" Swift continued.
1T is only because of great ne
cessity that we bring up the need
of a further substantial reduction
in expenses so that we can meet
competition of other concerns oper-
ating at much lower labor costs
1T is a well known fact that
wages in other industries have
come down much faster than in the
packing industry.
We have held off on the matter
as long as We possibly can-lonScr
than business warranted"

than the battleship, can get infor-
nation and draw out enemy vessels

battle cruisers which are under

American types. Japan, however,
is building eight and the United
States only six, so that Japan with

have virtually double the strength

Certainly there is uneasiness in

Without strong nerves you lose your
magnetism, force and courage. You
feel your own weakness and others
know that you are weak. Trifiing
things annoy youths is a sure sign
Of nerve exhaustion.
Some people are born with a very
small amount of nervo-vital fluid, be-
cause their nerve force has been squan-
dered by the lives lead by their ances-
tors. Others use up their nerve force faster
than the body can make II.
When your nerve force becomes weakened,
all the vital organs of your body lose their nor
NAL strength and vigor and as a result, all kinds
Of alarming symptoms may appear. From the
pains across the back, one person thinks he has
kidney trouble another may think his spine is
injured because OF the tender spots which may
occur thereon. The dull heavy pain In the lower
part of head leads another TO think he is going
to have paress and from the disagreeable full
ness pressure In the front Of his head, another
feels heis going to die from high blood pressure
Slecplessness and nervous irritabilty, heart pal
pitation and indigestion are very common symp-
toms. Naturally your strength, vigor, endur-
ance and brain power are all greatly weakened,
and in such condition you are in no position
to compete with the strong, keen red blooded

MAYNARD OUT At u.

BLOOMINGTON. Ind, Sept 90
With only four more afternoons Of
practice before the Franklin game, the
Indiana squad was put through the
hardest grind of the season yesterday
afternoon. Two elevens were running
signals for sometime after which the
drill ended with a snappy scrimmage.
Coach Stiehm tried out many different
players in an effort to fill the gaps left
vacant by men who were lost by
graduation. One big loss to the squad
is that of Maynard, who substituted
last season for Captain Kyle at full
back and who is reported to have with
drawn from school. He was out for
practice all last week. Thomas, the
Indianapolis half back, who has been
in the Bloomington hospital since the
opening of school, is recovering but is
not expected TO begin practice for ten
days.
