The speech of Secretary Hughes in

Stephan Paranetoff, the Minister Of
that country to Washington, who ar
rived here yesterday on the Cunard
liner Aquitania from Southampton.
The Bulgarian diplomat said that
the text of Mr.. Hughess sweeping Of

reduction of naval strength received
wide and full publicity throughout the
country and electrified the statesmen
and the people who read of it in the
newspapers.
1T was a splendid message" he said.

necessary to accomplish anything of
value at the conference Representa-

ageously took the lead in the matter
or dlsarmlng the conference would
have amounted to little or nothing.

the start that it was in earnest. and
We have all learned that when America
sets her mind upon accomplishment
size usually succeeds"

Action Is 'sWeIcomed''
Hearing ON Permanent Or
der Before Judge Lands
on Calendar for To-day

CHICAGO, Dec. 8 by The Asso-
ciated Press .-Buffeted by the criti-
.cism Of both railroads and railway
workers for more than a year and a
half, the United States Railroad Labor
Board finally was hailed into Federal
Court. to-day, when it was made de-
fendant in an injunction suit brought
by the Pennsylvania Railroad, which
Obtained temporary order from Judge
h. M. Lands restraining the board
from handing down a decision against
the road in u shopmens controversy
Members of the board said they
welcomed the suit as means Of
settling many perplexing questions
which have been the SUBJECT of many
three-cornered tits between the trans
portation lines, the employees and the
board. Charged by the transportation
act with settling railroad difficulties,
the board has no legal power of en-
forcing it's orders, and several roads
have disputed the extent of the boards
jurisdiction.
Hearing on q permanent order will
be held before Judge Lands to-mor-
row. The railroads petition is based
on two allegations-that the board has
jurisdiction only in cases over which
disagreement has arisen, and that
the board has exceeded its powers in
prescribing rules for the selection of
employee representatives in negotia-
tions with the carriers
Authority Challenged

ing any regulation relating to rules,

having first acquired jurisdiction
thereof as provided in the transporta-

The Pennsylvania also asked that the
board be prohibited from acting in a
case where conferences, as provided in
the transportation act, have not been
held, as in the present instance. The

State Bonus Bill Predicted
Machold Says Amendment Will
Be Passed at Albany

I'll. Edmund Machold, Speaker of the
Assembly, last night at the Republican
State Committee headquarters said the
Legislature this winter doubtless would
rass a constitutional amendment pro
viding for bonus for the World War
soldiers
There is scarcely room to doubt
that the Legislature will support CON
stitutional amendment providing for a
soldiers bonus,' said Mr. Mach old
"On account of the hard times it is
doubtful if the voters would sanction
putting the bonus total into one tax
levy, but it is different where the
money can be raised by the state giving
its note and paying off the debt in
lnstalments, and that is practically
what will be done, in my judgment"

Located on the Island.

"The greatest gambling center In
the world will be located in the west

Walter p. Harris of Havanna. "Cuba
Is already beset with the gambling
fever, and fortunes change hands
there almost every day.

prince Of Monaco that he Is prepar-

been extensive preparations for the

Gambling Is already fourishing In
Havana. The Casino de La Playa Is q
great garish temple Of roulette, where
wonderful dinners are served at less
than cost. The profit to the house
comes from the wheel. The men who
take women to the Casino for dinner
invariably back them at the wheel.
"The moratorium now In effect on
the island has not affected the crowds
at the Casino, because they are most

RICH ASIA MINOR PROVINCE
Smyrna, Blessed With q Fertile Soil
and Temperate Climate, 10 Plsas-
ant Dwelling Plaza


The modern province Of Smyrna is
the most favored Of all the provinces
Of Asia Minor. 1t contains three OF
the most considerable rivers Of the
country, including the Meander, whose
serpentine course has given the Eng
lish language an expressive verb. Fer
tile soil and temperate climate have
added to the regions attractions, while
the possession of port and city-the
city Of Smyrna-uneQualed by any 9TH
er In Asia Minor has contributed an
other immeasurably important asset.
Though imperfectly titled during Its
control by Turkey, the province OF
Smyrna has nevertheless been noted
for its fine fruits. For a long time 1t
has furnished the best figs and raj
sins which reach the markets OF Eu-
rope.
Poets and travellers have sung and
told of the beauties Of the city OF
Smyrna throughout the ages. The nu-
cleus nestles In the lowlands about Its
harbor, and behind, the city rises tier
above tier against the neighboring high
lands Unlike many cities that have
survived for long ages, Smyrna has
retained the same name from the dawn
Of history. This city should be dear
to the heart of the modern feminist,
for It took its name from an Amazon
who Is reputed to have played an Inn
portant part In Its early nfe.-Nation-

Bat Plenty of Fruit.

Fruit is food. 1t supplies some sugar
and the important mineral matters, mild
fruit acids, and vitamines, say experts
in the United States Department of Agri-
culture, Office Of Home Economics.
These food substances help to keep the
body In good health and to prevent con-
stipation.
Use fresh fruit whenever possible and
can the surplus. Apples, pears, plums,
peaches, cherries, oranges, grapefruit,
grapes, bananas, avooados, berries-the
list 10 very long. Somewhere In tho
United States some Of them are always
In season, aud some are In market every
where much of the time.
Use dried fruits, either home dried or
those on sale almost every where. Soak
prunes, dried apples, dried apricots in
water overnight and cook them long
enough to make them tender.
Use dates, fgs, or raisins. These are
very good added to breakfast cereals

HUMAN FACE AS A BEACON
Radlometer Able to Record the
"shlne" Thrown OF, at q Distance
Of Several MiIes.

Novelists that speak Of q face
Fighting up" put down an actual truth
that few Of them are aware Of or in
tend. One Of the most delicate in
struments In the world, q radiometer,
records the "shine" Of q human face,
and can do 1t at a distance Of several
miles. So delicate Is the instrument
that It can detect and record the glim-
mer Of a candle half mile away. and
II there were no atmospheric obstruc-
tion It could detect the same candle 10
miles away. The instrument consists
Of two thin glass disks, one polished
and one blackened, suspended by a
quartz thread In vacuum. Waves Of
radiant energy striking this instru-
ment disturb its balance, because the
bright disk reflects them, while the
black one absorbs them.
While the human face to the nor
NAL eye gives out no waves Of radiant
energy, the fact remains that con-
slant flow Of energy is being thrown
of, and these waves travel an un-
known distance. Although the radio
meter is wonderful and delicate In.
strument, there is q thermal couple
ten times as sensitive as the radiome-
ter and 1t can detect the heat OF q
candle go miles distant.
