Uncle Harry Talks About Successes
and Failures of the Conference

''It doesn't seem to me that the
Conference on Disarmament and the
Far East has been a complete sue
cess" said Jimmy.
We'll, I don't believe It has been
complete success, replied Uncle
Harry, with a smile Of sympathy at
Jimmy's disappointed face.
We'll. then, would you say that it
had been a failure?" persisted the
boy.
Jimmy, by way OF answer I want
to ask you a question" said Uncle
Harry. Would you say that Column
bus made a failure OF his voyage OF
discovery to the New World, be-
cause he only reached some OF the
islands in the West Indies, and prob
ably did not live to learn that there
was such a rives os the Hudson, or a
body OF water like Lake Superior,
for instance?"
Columbus Points the Way.
Certainly Columbus wasn't
failure smoke Helen. "He didn't
discover all Of the New World, but
he made a good start"
Exactly said Uncle Harry. Sena-
tor Borah, who introduced the reso-
luton in the Senate which started
the movement for the Conference;
President Harding, who called the
gathering, Secretary Hughes, who
has taken such a leading part in the
meetings at Washington, and all the
other officials of all the other coun-
tries, must. in all fairness, be
Judged very much as we now judge
Columbus. They have made begin
ming in the important matter OF dis
armament and also in adjusting in
ternational difficulties and problems
in the Pacific.
I'm the years that have followed
the great war, we have come to
realize more fully the terrible cost
OF those four years and there has
been what you might call a 'popu-
lar temptation TO hope that the
Conference on Disarmament and the
Far East would settle all the world s
problems and remove every possible
danger OF future conflict. But that
was a hope and not a probability.
The world is a big place, there
are many nations and the peoples OF
each of tke nations are more or less
divided on various questions.

The young man nodded without
lifting his head and replied with
mufiied tones;
"Yes. My name is Gordon Ladd.
IL heard you making that racket,
you know. and went down to the en-
trance and let you in"
"And that's all that lives in this

fastened upon the professor and the
latter replied:
"A lady lives on the top floor, the
one above mine. l do not know her.

but there is janitor or superin-
