JAP NOTE SAYS IS
MORE THAN GLAD TO
talk DISARMAMENT

Washington, Aug. 24-Japan's
hearty and appreciative accept
ance" of President Harding's invita-
ton to participate in the Washing
ton disarmament and Far Eastern
conference was expressed in note
received at the State department to-
day from the Japanese minister Of
foreign affairs
The Japanese government in ac-
cepting the invitation. however ex-
presses the hope that the agenda of
the Far Eastern conference would
be arranged prior to the meeting in
accordance with its suggestion that
matters concerning only a few ma
tions or which are accomplished
facts not be brought into the discus
sions.
The text of the japanese note says
in part:
Il have the honor to acknowledge
the receipt of your note of the 18th
of this month in which you init
mate the qualification of the presi-
dent of the United States at the cor
dial response which has been ac-
corded to his suggestion of a con
ference on the subjects of limita-
ton of armament and cognate topics
and in which YOU communicate the
presidents invitation to this govern
ment to participate in such a con-
ference to be held in Washington on
the 18th of oNvember, next, on the
subject of limitation of armament
in Connection with which Pacific and
Far Eastern questions also will be
discussed
The peace of the world has long
been chronic object of soiicitude
to the Japanese government and
people. That attitude has not re-
manned a platonic policy-it has
been followed out in action. It re-
suits naturally from this pacific at
titude toward forid problems that
government and people alike should
welcome the idea of the limitation
of ornaments and the removal of
the deadening burden on industry
and cultural development which
swollen and competitive ornaments
create.
This government is also com
pletely sympathetic to the vaiua bic
suggestion advanced in your note.
that it may well be desirable that
the use of novel agencies of warfare
should be controlled.
The discussion and removal of
any causes of misunderstanding
which may exist. and the arrival at
an eventual agreement with regard
to general principles and their appii-
cation which will ensure friendship
and good mutual understanding be-
tween the nations are regarded as of
great value and Importance
THE Japanese government gladly
concur in the proposal of the United
States that the scope of the discus
sion of Pacific and Far Eastern
problems shall be made the subject
for a free exchange of views prior to
the assembly of the conference
They hope that the agenda of the
conference will in this way be ar
ranged in harmony with the sugges-
ton made in the memorandum of
the japanese ministry of foreign af-
fairs of July 26th. 1921. bearing on
the same subject in order that the
labors of the conference NAV meet
speedily with the fullest measure of
successful achievement"

LET NO CORN
SPOIL AN HOUR
any Corn Can Be Stopped Nos. Any
Moment, by a Touch

Science has solved the corn prob
lem. One can now stop q corn ache
instantly. and shortly remove the
whole corn.
The method is gentle, scientific,
sure. A famous chemist invented it.
A surgical dressing house of world
wide fame produces it.
1t is Blue-jay-the liquid or the
plaster. A touch applies it. The
pain stops at once. Soon the whole
corn, however ancient, loosens and
comes out.
1t makes harsh treatments unncc-
essary. 1t makes pairing ridiculous.
1t makes every corn ache a folly.
Your druggist has Biue-jay. Let
it end your corn--tonight.

was all over in the third round. Jess
got 100000 for the performances.
many times the amount Caruso earns
In a whole opera. Dempsey got
s27. 900.
The champion fell down and got up
so many times In the first round that
the referce became dizzy from count.
ing, and failed TO hNar the bell. This
was on the fifth liaison between WI
lard and the floor.
The gong sounded feebiy on the
seventh count. hut Referee Pecord
continued chopping the air over viii
lard. When he had finished he in.
'ormed Dempsey that there had been
a knockout and tho champion left
he ring. only to have his manager
come running after him with the in
'crmation that there had been a mis-
take.
That first round was awful. But
I prepared everybody for the worst
and no n was surprised when WI
lard lost in the third round.
Dempsey opened the fight by ac-
cepting some taps on the face. Then
he hauled of and busted Willard in
the stomach so hard that a dazed ex-
preston o~verspread the champions
c~ountenanoe. Dempsey then landed
several blows TO the jaw and Willard
dropped TO the floor for six counts.
only to fall again with a blow that
greeted his nose.
As he got up a econd time he
.urned his head away but the Giant
Killer struck him twice and he fell
on his hands and knees.
Arising once more. Willard wa
.cornered by Dempsey who pounded
him TO the mat with rights and iefts
to the face. Again he got up and
ono more he was knocked down.
Somehow tho giant CROPPED his way
through the second round. suffering
nothing more humiiiating than n fall
partly through the ropes. Dempsey
tore into him again when the third
round opened. Willard was eroggy
and weak. with one y out of shape
md everything one wrong. His sec
pnds threw the towel into the ring
and called IL a lay.
