MAND ALL PROCEEDINGS
British Holds For Later Date While
Japanese Government Favors Early !;
Conference To Discuss Disarm-
ment Movement

WashingtOn-The time for begin
ming the disarmament conference was
discussed Thursday by Secretary
Hughes, Auckland Geddes, Baron Shil
dehara, the Japanese ambassador, and
the italian charge d'affaires. The Brit
ish government, IL no preliminary con-
ference is held, Is still favoring later
date than November IL. The Japan,
csc government is agreeable to the ear
lest time the other powers can agree
upon, but feels at disadvantage If an
early date is chosen, because of the
distance and time required to prepare
and forward data.
Washington-The way Is regarded
as open for the beginning Of negotia-
tons between the United States and
the other principal allied and associa-
ted powers as to the date and meeting
place of the proposed conference on
limitation of ornaments. There Is lit
tie opposition to holding the meeting
in Washington, although some OF the
British dominions are known to prefer
later date than November IL, Armts-
tice day, suggested by the American
government.
Officials here gave every evidence
Thursday of being satisfied with the
Japanese acceptance received Wednes-
day, although the Toxic government,
in consenting to the proposed prelim-
mary and basic discussion of Far
Eastern problems, suggested that prob
lens which concern only particular
powers or which can be regarded as
closed incidents be omitted from the
scope of the meeting. This sugges-
ton is regarded by officials here, how
ever, not as a condition to acceptance,
but as forecast of the attitude to be
taken by Japan in the conference.
The disarmament conference should
be public and the American people will
demand that 1t be public, said Senator
Arthur Capper of Kansas Thursday.
THE men on the farms, in the fac
| tories and in the shops are the ones to
eel the burden of ornaments" Cap

I'm peace they must pay taxes In

they pay, they will demand to know

Your face will tell you how your
health is. Muddy compilations and
drawn, nale, haggard faces usually
mean bad blood, clogged with poison.
1t is dangerous. Your powers of re-
sistance are low. Disease germs would
have an easy time of it.
When you work too hard, you get
fatigued. You probably keep it up for
days, perhaps months, without feeling
any bad effects. Sooner or later it
tells in your blood. You are not your
self.
1t is then your blood needs the help
of that great tonic. Pepto- Mangan. IL
is a wonderful remedy that physicians
have recommended for thirty years.
But be sure you get the genuine
Pepto- Mangan. Ask for Guides" and
be sure that the full name, Guides
Pepto- Mangan,' is on. the package.
You can buy it in liquid form or in
the same ingredients as the other and
tablets, which ever you prefer; one has
the same ingredients as the other and
gives the same effect.-Adv.
