When you step in your stockinged
foot, does the whole inner side of
your foot touch the floor? We hope
not, for that would indicate a fallen
or weak arch. Between the ball of
the foot and the heel the arch should
curve up on the inner side of the
foot and not touch the floor
To strength the arch muscles and
keep the foot healthy and comfort
able, wear the Cantilever Shoe. For
the shank is flexible, it bends WITH
the foot. 1t encourages the muscles
to exercise. Cantilevers correct and
prevent fiat foot by strengthening
the muscles that surround the bones
of the arch.

 Congressional Race

Albany February 11-(speclal) = The possibility loomed today that the Eighth district. composed of counties in the Tennessee valley chain, may have a woman representative in the next Congress in the person of Mrs. w. B. Edmundson of Albany.
 Mrs Edmundson admitted today that she had been importuned by several friends to make the race for the democratic nomination in oppo- sition to Judge F. B. Almon, incum- bent, but she declined to state what her attitude toward the campaign would be. It is known, however, that she is considering making the race. The Eighth district is composed of the counties of Cullman, Morgan, Lawrence, Madison, Limestone. Lau- derdale and Colbert.
 Mrs. Edmundson. who Is owner of the Wilder Place. famous plantation near here, is "dirt farmer" having had many years experience with farmers problems in the conduct of the plantation. She also Is an ardent advocate of good roads and was a member of a committee which ap- peared before congressional commit tees in Washington last year. Mrs. Edmundson' advice was said to have been of great benefit to the com mittees.

lands commercial experiment with Moscow the last year confirms us in our view.
 Soviet Position
 The soviets accepted the invita- ton to Genoa before receiving 1t and were thus enabled to avoid comment ing on the accompanying conditions, insufficient as they were. It would be decidedly rash. therefore, to begin such a far-reaching discussion as that planned at Genoa, with such a background.
 I have attempted to show where France stands with respect to Genoa and why she desires a postponement of the conference. The English pr1ss vigorously protests this viewpoint, saying that we are attempting to torpedo the conference.
 On the contrary, the best way to torpedo the conference would be to enter it with eyes shut. Only in that case the participants would be blown up with 1t.
 In conclusion. althouh the Franco British negotiations have not been terminated, I repeat my prediction that the Genoa conference will not be held on the date or under the conditions originally proposed.
 The whole thing must be. revised. Otherwise it will be a catastrophe or farce.

News That United States Will Not Join in Conference Has Added to General Confusion-France Thinks
 Postponement of Meeting Necessary

ousiy vague phrase.
 inc establishment of the Euro pean peace on firm bases"
 Giiner this means nothing. ar if means that the treaties of 1879 are null and void.
 It IS true another article on the Genoa program insists that those treaties must be respected. but this reaVes a contradiction which the FEench government rightly wants dis npaleo nefore proceeding further to commit itself to the conference
 But another big obstacle arise. The Genoa conference is beino ds,ssd eo on the ground of the need for solid arity In the worlds economic recon- struction But on the one hand soutb America is omitted, and that means many important nations have been left out completely.
 America Will Not Participate
 On the other hand we learn that North America. while approving the principle of the Genoa conference Will not participate. Where is the solidarity now?
 And David Lloyd George. cbiet prophet of solidarity, declares he win not grant a reduction of EnRIand's credits against other European na- tons unless first assured that there Will be reduction Tn Englands debt to America.
 Meantime, America by her recent "a" Tor the refunding of the allied debts, has answered Lloyd Geore. in advance that there Is to be no reduc- ton by America of the allied loans. So there is no evidence of a common purpose 5ustifying the conference.
 Even supposing Snese difficulties were overcome there Is another one ana a very considerable one at that, namely, that long technical prepara- tlon Is necessary for any serious work along world economic lines.
 Brussels Conference
 The Brussels conference of finan- cial experts in 1920 the only one that produced positive result concerning Germany's condition and reparations, was preceded by an intense joint study of several months An advance agreement had been reached on fig ures and statistics. So, when the program was adopted a unanimous agreement quickly was reported be- cause all started from the same prem ,ses. If conference Is attempted at Genoa or anywhere else without a similar preparation, the proposed re- construction of Europe will resemble a reconstruction of Babel more than anything else.
 The confusion is the greater be- cause not only the allies are con- cerned. but neutrals, and Germany and the soviets. The latter, whose good will Lloyd George somewhat rashly indorsed. do not merit oonfi- dence.
 The United States holds SO by re- fusing to recognize them. France feels the same way about 1t, and Eng

 Copyright. 1929, by The Age-HoraId)
 Paris, February 1.-The news that the United States will not participate in the Genoa conference has thrown further confusion into an already complicated matter and no ons now believes that the conference will meet March s, as planned
 This affair Is the best illustration of the intextricable misunderstanding caused by recent interallied meet ings.
 Former Premier Briand declares that when he left Cannes for Paris to resign, the Genoa program was un- determined and hence the invitations to the powers to participate should not have been sent without further conference. But Signor Bonomi, who has also resigned, sent the invitations immediately. together with a pro- gram which Briand claims was pure ly tentative.
