&c. Naturally, in matter gatheredl
from such variety of sources, there
are contradictions. Where such are
found the fact will be noted.
In considering prohibition condi-
lions in the United States as a whole.
ii is necessary to draw attention to the
fact that OF the forty-eight States In
the Union, thirty-three were dry be-
fore the passage of the Eighteenth
Amendment. Astonishing as Il may
seem some of these States that were
dry before national prohibition went
into effect. now contain, admittedly,
some of the wettest spots in the coun-
try. Reference is made especially to
Georgia. Texas and Oregon.
II will be noted that these three
States are border States, one on the
Atlantic. one on the Gulf of Mexico
bordering on Mexico and one on the
Pacific. They serve to emphasize a
point which many Of the reports made
10 THE NEW YORK HERALD bring out:
That much Of the liquor consumption
In this country to-day is only possible
because of the activities Of smugglers.
NO Figures ON Smuggling.
This Is highly important in view of
the figures occasionally printed by one
side or the other of the wet and dry
controversy. An indication of what IL
means is given in dispatch from THE
NEW YORK HERALD correspondent I'm
Detroit.
"The whole district between Port
Huron and the mouth OF the Detroit
Ricer. a distance of approximately
eighty miles. is a booze runners fairy
land. wherein the smuggling of liquor
has become scientific industry, ac-
complished by determined experts.
There is no way of accurately estimat-
ing the amount Of liquor that crosses
the river, but conservative figure

hours"
The purpose in calling attention to
this point Immediately and In connec-
ton with the statement regarding
Georgia. Texas and Oregon. is this:
There is no possible way of deter

WORLDWIDE INVITATION
BY LOUIS sEIBOLD.

Special Dispatch to THE NEW YolK HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau.
Washington, ID. C.. jan. I.
The lawless policy of "schrecklich-
keit" (frightfulness) employed by
Germany in a last desperate attempt
to win the world war received further
condemnation on the part of the dele
gates to the international conference
to-day.
Through tke adoption by the con-
ference committee on the limitation
of armaments the use in war OF as
phyxiating. poisonous or analogous
liquids and gases inflicting unneces-
sary suffering on participants and
noncombatants will be prohibited by
the Powers represented.
An invitation to all civilized nations
will urge the acceptance of the treaty
which is to provide for the abolition
of atrocious devices.
The vote by which TIE Root reso-
luton was a dopted in committee was
unanimous. Although no specific ref
erence was made to Germany in the
discussion that preceded the adoption
OF the prohibition against poison
gases, that country will receive an
identic request to commit itself to the
policies prescribed in the new rules
Of war.
Every argument advanced during
the discussion of the subject in the
committee reflected the conviction OF
the delegates from foreign countries
that TIE recommendation made by the
advisory committee OF the American
delegates will find unanimous ap-
proval throughout the world
The resolution prohibiting the use
of poison gases was slightly amended
in it's wording. 1t was inspired by
the report of the advisory committee
of the American delegation headed
by former Senator Sutherland. A
subcommittee of the experts COM
posed of army and naval officers had
failed to come to any conclusion as
to the advisability of wholly prohibit
ing the use of poisonous gas. The
report of the American advisory COM
mittee committed itself squarely in
favor Of the abolition Of laboratory
warfare.
The reasons that prompted the mill
49, 1-4. 20 ~
bility of completely prohibiting the use
of gases were of a technical character:
those that inspired the positive decla-
ration that such methods be prohibited
were solely humanitarian.
Experts Are Disregnrded.
The political and diplomatic dele
gates composing the armament COM
mitee accepted the view Of the Amer
ican advisory committee and disre-
Qarded the objections of the experts
that absolute prohibition might dis
courage experiments in and develop
ment of military devices that would
prove of tremendous value in an emer-
gency-meaning war.
The discussion of the Root resolu-
ton provided French delegates with
nm opportunity TO express their desire
to contribute in the fullest sense to
the success of the conference despite
their obstructive attitude toward the
limitation OF submarine armaments.

Consequently a telegram was sent

The whole question here turns on

French Chamber I'm the Way.
The attitude of the present French
Chamber stands in the way OF n proper
settlement of this matter according
to the British. Fearful OF losing his
majority in the present Chamber VI.
BRAND was unwilling to adopt the sug-
gestions of the experts tonight and
consequently the whole matter now is
to be threshed over with the Germans
whose arguments, IL convincing enough
to French public opinion. may keep
BRAND In power.
In the game they are playing with
the French the British showed rising
impatience to-day and insisted upon
calling In the Germans here virtually
as witnesses to the fact.
The minute the reparations questions
was taken UP 1t resolved itself into the
old row between the British and French
over Germany's capacity to pay. with
each Premier obviously thinking OF the
effect on home politics. Mr. Lloyd
George is now depending upon the Ger
mans to support his arguments and
to get the French to consent here TO
n virtual moratorium that will give
Germany a breathing spell pending the
result of his European reconstruction
scheme. The result is TO prolong the
Cannes conference and give the Ger
mans a new chance. of which they ex-
poets to take the fullest advantage.

Political Allies Sound Pros
poets for Another Party
Movement.

CHICAGO, Feb. 18.-Farmers' political
Representatives, meeting here today, made
plans to dominate the farm labor
political conference called for next week
with the possibility of forming 4 new
political party.
Farmers believed the labor forces
might ally with Socialist and other
liberal forces in the movement and the
agricultural interests would not be
brought to the front
Representatives Of various farm po-
1itical organizations, such as the Non
Partisan League and the Equity League
were at the secret meeting to send farm
ers TO next weeks conference, united to
keep farm issues to the fore.
The farmers representing the conser-
vative farm political thought, were not
anxious to see a third party come from
the meeting next week. They prefer
merely to indorse and work for candi-
dates and the Socialist representatives
are anxious for a third party
Otto Branstetter, executive secretary Of
the Socialist party, declared the Socialists
hoped that an organization patterned
after the British labor party would grow
out Of the meeting. Branstetter claimed
credit for the Socialists in calling the
conference saying it grew out Of data
gathered by Socialists on the feeling
among liberals of the country. This data
was tured over to President Johnston of
the Machinists' Union, who issued the
