Taking Desperate Chances.

1t is true that many contract severe
colds and recover from them without
taking any precaution or treatment
and knowledge Of this fact leads
others to take their chances instead OF
giving their colds the needed attention.
1t should be borne in mind that every
cold weakens the lungs, lowers the
vitality, makes the system less able
to withstand each succeeding attack
and paves the way for the more seri-
Gus diseases. Can you afford to take
such desperate chances when Cham.
berlain's Cough Remedy, famous for
its cures Of bad colds may be had for
a trifle?

DECLARES ITALIAN ARMY
STOPPED THE AUsTRIANs
Member of italian Delegation Says
Statement in Won Below Story
Were Inaccurate.

In connection with the story in The
Evening Star of December 16 regard
ing a luncheon the German general,
Hans Won Below. had with three Brit
Lord Cavan, who, 1t was stated.
stopped the Austrians in Italy and
turned them back, a member of the
Italian delegation to the arms con-
ference today pointed out that this
statement does not correspond to his
torical truth.
If, as it appears. the statement in
tended to refer to the military oper-
ations in Italy in October November,
1917. the assertion lacks any founda-
ton, 1t being a very well known fact
that the Austrian offensive was then
stopped by the italian army alone"
he said.
"The British and French troops
sent to Italy at that time were still
far from the battle front when the
offensive was stopped. At the time
when the order was given to them by
the Italian supreme command to take
their position on the defensive line
such line had already been firmly es-
tablished by the Italian army after
having paralyzed the Austrian ad-
vance.
If the statement intended in
stead. to refer to the operations on
the Piave in June. 1918. it is also not
correct. being a very well known fact
that of the fifty-six divisions which
participated in the battle of the
Piave only two were British.
Such British divisions were at the
extreme left wing, on the mountain
sector, where the battle lasted only
one day 15th Of June). The main
battle of the Piave took place from
the Montello to the sea. lasted nine
Gays u5th to 23d June) and was
fought exclusively by Italian troops"

ARMS BAROMETER
IN HUGHES MOODS
Secretary of State Leader
in Optimism Even if
Progress Is Slow.
INSPIRES HOPE IN OTHERS
Personal Qualities Are Reflected in
Morale of Conference and
Press as Well.
BY LEROY r. VERNON.

While the conference on the limlta-
ton of armament has been stalled
awaiting final word from the
French on the question of capital
ship naval ratio. there has arisen a
speculation as to whether Secretary
of State Charles Z. Hughes is a dlp-
lomat or a master workman at state
craft. This speculation has arisen
from the fact that Mr.. Hughes facial
expression has become barometer
Of the progress or lack of progress OF
the conference. and diplomat is not
supposed to betray anything, even py
facial expression. unless it suits MS
purpose to do so.
Let the armament committee or the
ference do something important and
ously emerge from his office to face
with a broad. limpid smile which
the assembled international press
clearly shows every facial muscle re-
laxed in the thorough enjoyment or
the moment. Perhaps Mr.. Hughes
will open his meeting with a clear
exposition of just what has occurred
or he will playfully invite questions
from his auditors to ascertain Wheth-
er or not they are aware that ne has
something to announce.
On the contrary. let the conference
fall into the doldrums as it did when
the Japanese were waiting to hear
from Toxic on the '5-5-3" ratio and
as it now is, while the French get
Strengthened out with Paris. and MIR.
Hughes appears just as vigorously,
with the same twinkling eye and
smiling countenance, but even behind
his generous growth of whiskers
there is visible tenseness OF the
facial muscles, a strain. a keen sense
of disappointment that there is
nothing to report.
Likes to Report Progress.
Mr.. Hughes clearly likes to report
progress He gets all the fun out
of it that any grown-up gets out OF
a genuine achievement. He is a
resourceful, natural-born optimist.
however. who never surrenders. Even
Evening star., 1921-12-21

in the face of an insurmountable
obstacle he is likely to make re-
marks about 1t which will make 1t
appear as a good-natured obstacle
after all. one which anybody might
cultivate the acquaintance of without
losing his self-respect and. certainly,
one which may be circumvented If IT
cannot be overcome. The net result
of this badinage, which is serious in
intent. is that everybody leaves the
presence of Mr.. Hughes feeling that
there is hope and that. in the closets
of the conference room, statesmen
are not glumly eying each other
but are really trying to grope their
way out of the maze before them.
Today Mr.. Hughes had nothing to
report: He could not discuss Am
bassador Harvey's report after Am
bassador Harvey had talked with Pre-
mier BRAND of France in London. for
the obvious reason that the French
delegation here mad not completed it's
exchanges with Mr.. BRAND on the
ceed until it did. 1t was also clear
that the French delegation was rot
ready to accept the LIS ratio allotted
to France without compensations and
would make recommendations 10 Mr..
BRAND if he had done SO. On the
other hand. Mr.. Hughes. in 'ommuni-
eating with Mr.. BRAND, clearly
thought of him as the absent head Of
the French delegation here and had
in mind the conversations they had
had together early in the conference
on the American plan for naval dis
armament. Under the circumstances
Mr.. Hughes, as chairman of the con-
ference. could say nothing and he
frankly admitted that fact.
Serious Purpose in Jokes.
If it were possible to quote the
replies of Secretary Hughes to the
questions asked him in the press con-
ferences, especially on days when
there is little news, it would be evil
dent that there is a serious purpose
even in Mr. Hughes best jokes. Mr..
Hughes is no gossip and never COM
ments on the news Of the conference
unless it is officially before him. The
only deviation from this course Is
when he believes it desirable to sst
before the writer's the American
point of view on any given subject
and he is careful to confine his re-
marks to that topic. While he does
not always furnish the newspaper
men with all the news they think
they are entitled to get. the fact is
that Mr.. Hughes gives them all that
he, in his capacity as chairman OF
the conference and head OF the
American delegation, thinks they are
entitled to receive from him. Such
news as he does give out is accurate
and to the point and his personal op-
timism about the work of the con-
ference is reflected in the morale, not
only of the conference, but of the
press as we'll.
