WHICH lHe conference mas Spredu
SupremeIy Gratified
81 am sure the people of the United
States are supremely gratified, and
yet there is scant appreciation how
marvelously you have wrought When
the days were dragging and agree
ments were delayed, when there were
obstacles within and hindrances with
out, few stopped to realize that here
was conference of sovereign powers
where only unanimous agreement
could be made the rule. Majorities
could not decide wi hout impinging on
national rights. There were no vic
tors to command, no vanquished to
yield.
And you have agreed in spite of
all difficul les and the agreements are
proclaimed to the world. No new
standards of national honor have been
sought, but the indemnities of nation
al dishonor have been drawn and the
world is ready to proclaim the odious-
ness of perfidy or infamy
Not New Conceptions
al is not pretended that the pur-
suit of peace and the limitations of
the conference is a new conception
either in settlement of war or in writ
ing the conscience of international re-
la aonship. Indeed, it is not new to
have met in the realization of wars
supreme penalties. The Hague con-
ventions are examples Of the one, the
conference of Vienna, of Berlin, or
Versailles, are outstanding instances
of the other.
.The Hague conferences we're de.
feated by the antagonism of one
strong power whose indisposition to
keep and sus ain led it to one of the
supreme tragedies which have come
to national eminence. Vienna and
Berlin sought peace founded on the
injustices of war and sowed the seeds
of future conflict, and hatred was
armed where confidence stifled
1T is safe to say that the human
progress, the growing intimacy of in.
ternational relationship, developed by
communication and transportation, at.
tended by directing world opinion,
have set the stage more favorable
here. You have met in that calm de.
liberation and that determined resolu.
tion which have made a JUS peace
in righteous relationship, its own best
guaranty.
Worked Under Favorable Conditions
1T has been the fortune of this con
ference to sit in day far enough re-
moved from wars bitterness, yet near
enough to wars horrors, to gain he
benefit Of both the hatred of war and
the yaarning for peace. Too often
heretofore, the breads following such
gatherings have been marked by the
difficult undoing of their decisions
But your achievement is supreme be
cause no seed of conflict has been
sown; no reaction in regret or resent
ment ever can justify resort to arms
1T little matters what we appraise
as the outstanding accomplishment
Any one Of them alone would have
Justified the conference. But the

whole achievement has so cleared the
atmosphere that it will seem like
breathing the refreshing air of a new
morn of promise.
You have written the first delib-
crate and effective expression of
great powers, in the consciousness of
peace, of wars utter futility, and
challenged the sanity of competitive
sparing for each others decision. You
have halted folly and lifted burdens,
and revealed to the world that the one
sure way to recover from the sorrow
and ruin and staggering obligations of
a world war is to end the strife in
preparation for more of it, and turn
human energies to the constructive
ness of peace.
mot all the world is yet tranquil
lied. But here is an example 10 i'm
bue with new hope all who dwell in
apprehension. At this table came un-
derstanding and understanding brands
armed conflict as abominable in the
eyes of enlightened civilization.
Renounces Armed Preparedness
81 once believed in armed prepared
ness. l recommended it. But. / have
come now to believe there is better
preparedness in a public mind and
a world opinion made ready to gran:
justice precisely as it acts it. And
justice is better served in conferences
of peace than in conflicts at arms.
"How simple it all has been. When
you met here twelve weeks ago there
was not a commitment, no. an obli-
cation except that which each delega-
ton owes to the government commits
sioning it. But human service was
calling, world conscience was impell-
ing. and world opinion directing.
mo intrigue, no offensive or defen-
sive alliances, no inducements have
wrought your agreements, bu. reason
ing with each other to common under
standing has made new relationships
among governments and peoples, new
securities for peace, and new oppor-
tunities for achievement and attend
ing happiness.
Contacts of Reason
Here have been established the
con acts of reason, here has come the
inevitable understandings of face-to-
face exchanges when passion does not
inf1ame. The very atmosphere shamed
national selfishness into retreat, re-
view points were exchanges, differ
ence composed, and you came to un-
derstand how common, after all, are
human aspirations; how alike, indeed,
and how easily reconcilable, are our
national aspirations; how sane and
simple and satisfying to seek he re-
| lationships of peace and security.
"Whan Vn1r first mot fO1d xo,, -
our Americas thought to seek less of
armament and none Of war; that we
sought nothing which is ano.her's, and
we were unafraid, but that we wished
to join you in doing that finer and
nobler thing which no nation can do

Try this amusing experiment Of
hearing the monograph with both your
ears stopped up. .
Sharpen to II fine point one end of
n thin piece of wood about three
inches long. Hold the wood between
your teeth, the pointed end touching
the record of your photograph.
Start the machine, then stop your
ears tightly with your fingers. and
you will be surprised at the clearness
with which you can hear the record.
Here's another tip. If your phOnO-

no more, insert an ordinary needle
through the crown of a felt hat. Place
the needle on the revolving record, and
