The conference of the leading ma
tionalities of the world brought to-
gether by invitation of President
Harding is now in session and the eyes
of the world are on their deliberations.
Secretary of State Charles E. Hughes,
of the United States, who was honored
with the craftsmanship of this greaE
conference, has outlined scheme that
for directness and frankness has star
tied the great nations of the world, a
stroke of diplomacy that has given
all nations something to think about.
In brief the United States asks Great
Britain to abandon twenty-three war
ships, Japan seventeen and this coun-
try is willing to cut thirty from its
program on which 100000 has al
ready been spent. Not only that, but
should the plan of administration go
through no replacement of battleships
whatever would be undertaken for ten
years from the signing of the agree
ment. 1t is safe to say that if the
world had a naval holiday" of ter
years, the holiday" would be continu

that the proposals would involve a de

timated that the peak of the number
of soldier cases will not be reached be-
fore 1925, perhaps later.
Then again, there is the Bureau of
Hygiene, which has established
courses in first aid in nearly two score
of schools of the State. These two,
the soldiers and the home nursing
courses are ways in which part of the
money received from memberships is
spent in Delaware. If the Red Cross
did not render this aid, some other
agency would be called upon to do so
The worth of these activities alone
should be sufficient reason for joining
the organization.

While Delaware College by legisla-
tive enactment az far as the State of
Delaware is concerned became a Uni
versity some months ago, admittance
of the university last week to men,
bership in the National Association of
State Universities at New Orleans,
La, places the local institution on an
equal footing with the great state uni
versities throughout the country. This
action admitting Delaware into the
ranks of other state universities was
taken at a meeting of the Presidents
of the Universities held at New Or
leans. A telegram from DR.. Walter
Hullihen, president of the University
of Delaware, who has been so actively
interested in the matter, announced
the favorable action relative to Della

cannot be underestimated. 1t give.

Beginning on Friday-Armistice
Day-the Delaware Chapter of the
American Red Cross opened their
fifth annual roll call in this State for
the renewal of subscriptions to this
great organization. From now on un-
til Thanksgiving Day, volunteer work
ers throughout the State. will make
personal appeals to present members
and others to join the Red Cross by
payment of one dollar. There are
thousands who viii, as they have in
the past, accept this opportunity of
supporting this one dollar subscription
glad to realize that through this
mite they are members of the greatest
charitable body on earth. But there
are others who will ask the question::
Why should l belong to the Red
Gross? Why should l give my dollar
and how is it to be spent? In nut
shell, there are two very important
reasons why every American should
be member of the Red Cross. These
are the need of providing for emer'
gency in case of catastrophe, and the
second, for the work which the organ
ization has undertaken to do in Amer
lea and which will continue for posi-
bly, ten years.
Of the first, practically every on
knows a little. If flood, a fire,
famine occurs in any section of tn
world, the Red Cross is the frs
agency appealed to, and it has alway
made good. If Delaware were visite
with some terrible calamity the Re
Cross would be ready with instant re
lief as it always is in every commuI
ity where there is distress. Beside
guarding against such contingenc
however, there is the actual work tn;
is being accomplished by the Re-
Cross every day in Delaware.
The rehabilitation of the ex-servi
men who suffered during the Wor
War, is the living illustration OF r
Cross activity in Delaware. Throui

Former Comptroller of Shipping Board
Names c. M. SchWab to Walsh
Committee.

New York, Jan. 21.--At least $780,
100000 improperly paid shipbuilders
by the United States shipping board
will be disclosed through an audit
Of accounts now in progress, Col. e.
81. Abadie, former comptroller general
of the board, declared here before the
Walsh congressional committee.
Charles NJ. Schwab was subpoenaed
to appear before the congressional
committee on United States shipping
board operations early next week. The
decision to call Mr.. Schwab followed
the testimony of Col Eugene FL.
Abadie
Colonel Abadie charged that there
were "a great many serious irregulari-
ties" in the dealings between the
Bethlehem Shipbuilding corporation
and the government as a result of
the connection of Charles M. Schwab
with both the board and the corpora
ton.
Things had been done and al
Schwab's connection, which probably
would not be allowed otherwise. and,
though | was satisfied Mr.. Schwab
knew personally nothing of them, the
influence from Mr. Schwab's dual pO-
sit'On was prevalent just the same.
Though at that time | had never
met Mr.. Schwab, | was satisfied from
my knowledge of his record that he
would be the first to condemn any in
Justice by his corporation toward the
government and would willingly nd
gladly return any moneys improper
ly paid his corporation"

HOLDING CHEMICAL TRADE
Has Been Able to Hold High
Mark Set During War.

Official statistics for the fiscal year
1920 demonstrate that this country
has been able to keep it's trade in
chemical and allied products very near
the high mark set during the war, de.
spite the loss of markets for purely
war supplies and despite the pressing
demands that must be met in the do
nestle market
Such is tho conclusion reached by
o. P. Hopkins, a well-known Stats
tician, writing in the Journal of Indus
trial and Engineering Chemistry.
"In almost all lines except NUM-
TONS" he writes, "the exports in 1920
exceeded in value those of 1918, fact
that can be explained in some cases,
perhaps, by rising prices, but which
nevertheless warrants the assertion
that the position has not been weak
ened. These exports, which very
greatly exceed those of the last nor
mai pre-war year, are made up almost
entirely of manufac tured products.
Imports have more than held their
own and comprise raw and partly man-
ufactured products required for fur
Their advancement by American chem
fcal manufa cturerS."
