never finding the one who could call
out our reserves of affection or meet

the lesser loves and love this one for

Perhaps you viii have to do the
same thing, because it is just as diff
cult for q man to take care of moth
erless children as it is for a woman
TO take care of fatherless little ones.
But aside from your own sorrow.

which your wife Is having on your chill

girls her OWN lax ideals of morality.
and If she sets an example of loose liv-
ing before them. it would be better to

ciples.

PARLEY ON OPIUM
/ IN BITTER DEBATE
Delegates Near to Violence
L on Japanese Importing
Claims.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
GENEVA. November 25.-The pal
ace of the League of Nations was the
scene today of another sensational
public meeting on the opium problem
when the Far Eastern opium con-
ference was revived. After words ac-
cusative and almost violent in ma
ture between the Japanese. British
and Indian delegates an agreement
WAS reached in principle on the mat
ter which was one of the causes for
the collapse of the first opium con-
ference.
This matter concerns the freedom OF
Japan to import opium and recog
milton Of import certificates by Brit
ish authorities when Japan trans
ships her opium at Hongkong to be
sent in various directions
First Conference Failed.
Despite this accord. however, the
first conference is generally regard
cd as practically "A complete failure
because it provides no effective sys-
tenn for putting an end to opium
smoking in the Far East.
II was that object for which the
first conference was called.
When the session opened Mr.. Susi-
lnura of the Japanese delegation an
reuuced that Japan would not sign
Japanese certificates were approved.
lie continued his offensive so hard
that the British delegation finally
gave in to the extent of agreeing to
recognize the validity Of all certIti-
Gates Viscd by a japanese consul.
This was considered victory for
Japan.
Denies Discrimination.
Sir Malcolm Delevingne of the Brit
ish delegation repudiated charges
that Great Britain was discriminating
against Japan. He insisted 1t was un-
just to bring such an accusation
against friendly government The
Indian delegate declared that all gov
erumeuts could not be placed on the
same level. and hence the necessity
for selection in recognizing opium
purchases as legitimate.
The DELEGATES themselves admit that
the only effective clause in the con
Nnnti"n, which probably will be con-
riuded next week. is that the Far
Eastern powers agree to meet in five
Years to re-eNamine into the problem
