Editor Of The Washington Times:

Editor Of The Washington Times:
There certainly has been praiseworthy
effort made by the conference at Washing
ton to put poison gas in the category with
dunn dunn bullets and rule 1t out Of civil
lied warfare. There may be some doubt
that this prohibition can be made effective,
because II one nation resorts to poison gas
other nations will have to.
Yet there Is hope that It can be made
effective in tho fact that the duni-dum bull
let has been 80 completely suppressed by
the general sentiment Of all nations.
This is, to my mind, the first intelligent
thing that the conference at Washington
has done-the first thing that is actually
based on humanity and not on the special,
selfish interest Of some one nation trying
to put another nation at disadvantage,
that other nation being almost invariably
the United States Of America.
The attempt to limit the construction Of
submarines and restrict their radius Of &C
tion Is obviously plan Of Great Britain TO
protect her own superior commerce. and to
make effective her dominant ssa-power;,
because her navy, plus her convettihle
merchant ships, does give her On enormoris
dominance over the sea power Of any other
nation.
And this dominance IL still further In
creased by the understanding which we all
know exists between Great Britain and
Japan.
Since the Napoleonic wars, when the
American, Robert Fulton, perfected and
demonstrated the success Of the steamboat,
the forerunner Of the submarine Of today.
British diplomacy has steadily sought to
outlaw the submarine, not because It was
inhumane, but because It was the only de-
fensive weapon that threatened to nullify
the mastery and control Of the seas by
Great Britain.
The attempt to limit the submarine Is
positive attempt to limit the defensive
power of the United States and 20 make
Great Britain's dominance in sea-power
doubly overwhelming in case 1t were ever
directed at the United States.
The probability that it surely will be
some day so directed is proved by history,
if we are capable of reading history un-
derstandingly England has invariably
used her sea-power to destroy her CON-
mercial rivals-frst Spain, then Holland,
then France, then Germany-and during
the war Of 1872 the merchant marine and
the commerce of the United States.
To oppose the schemes Of Great Britain
to restrict the defensive power Of other ma
tions through the ban upon submarines
was obviously the patriotic duty Of the
representatives Of the United States.
Our statesmen failed in that duty, being
subservient to the international bankers,
whose first interest is the great profits

Attempt to Rule Out Poison Gas
First Intelligent Act of Conference

they derive from their British government
connections. But fortunately the states
msn Of France were Of superior caliber
and Of truer patriotism, and their oppo-
sition to tho ban upon submarines, II that
opposition shall not be overcome by the
fatuous action Of the United States in sup
porting the policies Of England, will to .
degree save the United States az well as
France.
The ban upon poison gas seems to be
made, however, genuinely in the interest
Of humanity; and that prohibition, sup
ported by the general sentiment Of
civilized nations, may actually prevent the
use Of poison gas in future wars.
II this should be the case, the confer
snce has had some justification for it,
existence. It has performed one beneficial
act.
In all other respects this Armament Con-
ference has failed to achieve disarmament
or any, other benefit to mankind. British
diplomacy has won signal victory by
assuring the supremacy Of the British
navy on the seas for nearly ten years to
scome "a supremacy that would haye come
% IN end three years hence u no Arma-
menf Conference. had been called and II
the American naval program adopted by
three Congresses, two Democratic and one
Republican, had been carried out.
BY drawing the United States into an
alliance with England, Japan and France,
the most warlike nations Of the world, and
by creating an agreement by which the
United States is pledged to confirm these
warlike nations in their possessions and
support them in their aggressions, the
probabilities of war have been greatly in
creased, and the likelihood that the United
States will be involved in every war that
does take place has been made almost q
certainty. .s
But the Armament Conferences many
evil acts, calculated to induce war rather
than prevent it, its many unwise per-
formances and pledges, its un-American
attempt to make this independent, liberty
loving nation an ally Of imperialism, q
direct supporter of autocracies In their
policies Of aggression and oppression, can
be nullined by the United States Senate,
and should be and will be so nullifed, or
else Senate of more patriotic and more
truly American sentiment Will soon I'LL
the present Senate's place.
The lower house is lost to the Repubi-
can party-that is certainty. The next
Presidency is lost to the Republican party
that is an equal certainty.
But it is possible for the Republican
party to retain majority in the Senate,
If the Senate pursues a patriotically
American course and remains true to its
pledges to the people.

FUEL FOR THE BODY

In addition to an understanding
of the five food groups, it is well to
know what proportions to use of the
foods in each group, the United
States Department of Agriculture
points out.
As rule the diet will be sufi-
GENTLY bulky and favorful and will
furnish the right proportion Of
starch, fat and sugar for the taste of
most people if the vegetables and
fruits furnish about 20 per cent of
the fuel; the milk, meat, eggs and
similar foods, 20 per cent; the cereal
foods, 80 per cent; sweets, 10 per
cent, and fats and fat foods, 20 per
cent.
A diet made up on these proper
tons will furnish satisfactory kinds
and amounts of protein, mineral
substances and vitamines.

DENY IVY is HARMFUL

The impression that ivy is harm
full to walls of stone OF of brick has
been removed by the testimony of q
large number of architects, builders,
foresters and master gardeners, as
serts the New York Herald. These
trained observers agree that ivy has
no tendency to make the walls damp.
They maintain, in fact, that the
clinging tendrils of the plant ex-
tract and absorb any existing mois-
ture, and that the thick leaves pro-
tect the walls from the action of the
weather. Furthermore, they find no
evidence that the ivy roots affect the
foundations of stone structures

NEED WINDOW PANEs

In the ruined villages of France
there are no glass windows left in the
shattered houses, and the inhab-
itants are using oiled paper. An or
binary pane of glass which cost less
than a franc and half before the
war now costs between 10 and 10
francs. And even at that price it is
difficult to obtain and still more
difficult to transport. Oiled paper
answers the purpose in the summer,
when life is pleasant out of doors,
but it will be different story in
winter. A French newspaper re-
Gently appealed to those living in
the unravaged districts of France to
give up one pane of glass apiece for
the benefit of their less fortunate
countrymen.

WILD LIFE ABUNDANT

Reports from various sections Of
the Northwest tend to prove the re-
turn of one of those periodic years
of abundant wild animal life. The
trapping fraternity has shown more
inclination to establish the trap lines
this autumn than for years, some of
the Northwest Quitting stores re-
porting enormous sales of trapping
and hunting supplies.
Such energy by the trappers of
the Northwest is not shown unless
they are reasonably sure of big re-
turns, for it requires courage to
spend a lonely winter in the frozen,
stormy wilderness where trapping
must be done.

NOTES ON ENGLISH COSTUME
American Writer Is Not Altogether
Kindly to Fashion Approved
Across the Water.

The Englishwoman has developed
g national costume in the last few
years, writes Kenneth l. Roberts in
the Saturday Evening Post. This is
known as the jumper-probably SO
called because it frequently makes
the beholder jump, though some
claim that its name is due to the
fact that it can be jumped into
quickly. The jumper is a low
necked affair that hangs down to the
hips and is worn in place of blouse,
shirtwaist OF coat. 1t has elbow
length sleeves and belt around the
waist, and it is made of all sorts of
materials, from the thinnest silk to
the heaviest wool. Englishwomen
wear jumpers for breakfast, lunch
and dinner. They wear them when
at home and when travelling. Owing
to the fact that all jumpers have the
appearance of half-portion dressing
sacks Englishwomen who wear them
look at all times as though they
were just about to comb their hair
or had just finished doing so. Eng |
also like to wear man
nish walking suits made of Scotch
tweed. The Englishwomen's tweed
walking suits invariably look as
though they had been constantly
slept in for the last three years.

TO ENCOURAGE BUILDING

Exemption Of dwelling houses
from taxation for ten years has been
enacted in Costa RIGA to promote
building activity. The city of San
Jose has set aside lots on municipal
ly-owned land to be given free to
prospective builders Of small homes
for their own use. In Cuba the
state itself is issuing over $4,000
ooo In 8 per cent bonds for the con-
struction of three types of small
houses which will be sold to citizens
whose earnings do not exceed 5000
a month, repayment in monthly in
stallments being spread over 16
years.

NO NEED FOR ALARM CLOCK
In the City There Are Various An
nouncements Telling Of the Time
to Arise.

The Woman overheard a commu-
ter and city man talking one day
about the relative merits of living in
the city or the country. The Chi
cago man maintained that the main
advantage was that one living in the
city didn't have to get up as early in
the morning.
"That reminds me" said the COM
muter. Il must buy an alarm clock
today. It's too dark these mornings
to trust to luck to wake up"
"Ah, another reason for living in
the city-we don't need alarm
clocks exclaimed the city man.
The commuter questioned this, SO
the city man fastened to explain.
well, you see, my apartment is on
q court, and every five minutes be-
tween Z and 1880 each morning ten
or fifteen alarms go off, SO that /
have never found the need of

Her apartment is on q court also,
but it's q six-o'clock baby or so
across the court that rouses her each
day.-Exchange.

JUSTICE NEAR GRAVE ERROR

"Circumstantial evidence play

North Vernon. Shortly after the

was in vogue, an old woman in
Elizabethtown, Ind, where | was

money. Suspicion pointed to fam

the family was arrested. Meanwhile
the stores had a description of a rs
cent shinplaster, patched with
piece of newspaper, which was part
of the stolen money.
within a week a country rela-
tive of the suspected family had pre-
sented 25-cent shinplaster, patched
with newspaper, in payment at one
of the stores. The guilt of the sus-
pected family was thus apparently
firmly established-the money had

WENT ALTOGETHER TOO FAR
Delegation Couldn't Help but Think
That the Head of the Corpora
tion Was Unreasonable.

The head Of a number of corpo-
rations, on the verge of a nervous
breakdown, decided to get his house
in order prior to an extended So
journ in southern California.
Among other details, he put in
economies in the Office forces of these
companies, which included laying off
large number of clerks.
These men, learning of their i'm
pending dismissal, sent delegation
to wait on their superior. The con-
versation waxed personal and the
chief of the clerical committee sug-
gested that if the president had not
appropriated so large salary things
might have been different for their
jobs.
Without losing his temper, the Of
ficer replied: Every well, as you
put it that way, will you gentlemen
work here on the same basis as l
am ?"
The answer was unanimous af-
frmative.
"All right. You will discover
from the accounting department
that my salary was entirely discon-
tinued the first of the year," said the
president.

'ion.-Wall Street Journal.

Puts Up Peculiar Plea When Asking for
 Divorce.

Seattle. Jan 19.-Because his wife loves hin so jealously that she believes few women capable of resisting his charm, and by her constant, jealous nagging, which he asserts is slowly but surely killing him, Major Carl H. Reeves, superintendent of public utilities, today filed suit for divorce.
 Major Reeves is 6 world war veteran and prominent Shriner, while his wife is a well known society woman.
