Notwithstanding the reticence of
high Government officials last night
to discuss the leagues invitation, il
was stated in we'll informed quarters
that the administration will seek first
TO learn the exact program of the pro-
posed conference before accepting or
declining the invitation.
There is a certain amount of
skepticism here as 10 the ability of the
contemplated conference really to
achieve limitation of armaments. That
being the case, the argument is made
that it would be unWise for the United
States TO get itself into a position
where il might be accused Of pre-
venting the consumation of a disarma
ment agreement because it would not
itself join in various security agree
ments with European and other ma
tons.
Court Debate to Continue.
The World Court debate will con
tinue in the Senate tomorrow and
Tuesday, when the Senate will add
journ for the Christmas holidays.
Senators Walsh of Montana, Pepper
~
Ohio are expected to speak for the
court proposal. 1t is possible that
the leagues invitation to the arms
conference viii be made a subject of
the debate, although there is an in
clination among the Senators TO per-
nit the President to handle the mat
ter for the present at any rate.
Word received here yesterday that
the Soviet government of Russia had
accepted an invitation to the Geneva
meeting to discuss plans for the arms
conference caused not little interest.
The attitude of this Government has
been not to recognize the Soviet gov
eminent officially, and that being the
case, the question arose as to how
this Government would be able to
participate in a conference with that
government without retreating from
the position it has hitherto held. On
the other hand, it was recognized that

Expressing similar statements,
Izvestia, the government newspaper,
today says that although Soviet Rus
sia will gladly join in such confer
ei.CeS. il cannot do so If the discus
sionS are held in Switzerland, which
the bolsheviks have boycotted ever
since the assassination of Naslav
Norovsky at Lausanne in 1923.
The paper thinks the very fact
that the invitation was extended to
Russia by the league is an adroit
move in a diplomatic game carried on
by British diplonlatists under the
camoufiage of pacifcation." adding
that the allies We're fully aware of the
Soviet's negative attitude toward the
vitation and also the possibility Of
Russia's refusing TO join the con-
ference.

Refusal to participate. however"
the IZvestia continued, would be
playing into the hands of the league
and would brand the Soviet union as
an enemy of peace"
The paper declares Russia's gen
uine desire for disarmament is already
known to all the world through its
declarations at the international con-
ferences in Genoa, Moscow, Rome and
London.
1t calls attention to the fact that
the Soviet during the last three years
has reduced its army from 100000
to 100000 men, and asserts that this
number will be further reduced If the
other nations do likewise.

Pilgrims Drawn to Rome
 By Soft Italian Skies

ROME, Mar. 31-The influx into Rome of thousands Holy Year pill grims and tourists, drawn here from the usual early spring res sorts by re ports of unusually fine weather, is rapidly restoring to tbe city it's pre- war position as one of the most i,i- teresting of European capitals
 Again the Seven Hills look down not only upon the Eternal City, the traditional home Of tno Papacy and the custodian of the empires relics, but also upon a flourishing modern city which keeps it's rank among the first metropolises of the world with surprising economy of effort
 For example, Rome's best shop ping thoroughfare, the Via Condotti, would be lost in Fifth avenue. Tn fact, it would stretch hardly more than two blocks of that fine avenue. It could be tucked away in Bond Street or in the area between Re gent and Oxford Streets in London, and it could never be found in the miles of shopping streets of Paris. And yet Roman men and women of the better classes are as modishly and as smartly dressed as any the world over
 Rome's greatest avenue, the Corso Umberto, is never wider than a roomy alley, and scores of the city's streets are heritages of the middle ages with no sidewalks and hardly room for two carriages to pass each other. And yet Rome has some of the finest and most luxurious motor cars in the world and it's weather residents are among the best customers of Italy's great mo- tor car factories

Sponges Endorsed as Pets

SEATTLE, Wn., Mar. 31.-Two pet sponges, raised from infancy by Trevor Kincaid, professor of zoolo- gy in the University of Washington, has given birth to six young sponges.
 The sextet are replicas of the parent sponges, and, although they may never be useful in swabbing mud off the family automobile, they make remarkably docile pets, said Professor Kincaid.
 Professor Kincaids experiment, as far as known here, was the first successful attempt to raise sponges in an indoor aquarium.

SUJLZER COMPLIES LIST OF WORLDS
 GREATEST MEN

Former Governor of New York, Wm. Sulzer, who visited Seward last summer, and who is heavily interest ed in the White River country, re gently compiled a list of the world s greatest men, which is believed to be one of the best yet, and Gov. Sulzer has been greatly complimented on his effort.
 The following letter was handed in to the Gateway from one of the ban queters who was present at the time MT. Sulzer made his favorites known: Dr. Eliot tells us that the ten great est men in the past 2300 years are the following:
 1. Aristotle
 ?. Galen
 8 Leonardo da Vinci f. Milton
 ,. Shakespeare
 6. John Locke
 2. Immanual Kent
 s. Francis Bacon g. Isaac Newton
 10 Ralph Waldo Emerson. In my opinion, says the sender of the letter, this is a good list How ever, I was at the Robt Burns Dinner held at the Brevoort House, on Janu- ary 24, to commemorate his birthday, and l heard former Governor Sulzer's speech in which he gave a list of the ten greatest men the world has pro- duced, and as Sulzer was several weeks ahead of Dr. Eliot, I want to give the names on his list, so that those who are interested in subjects of this kind can make comparisons, and draw their own conclusions The Sulzer list is as follows
 L Hammurabi-
 the genius and ruler of Chal-
 dea, and the father of law. ,. Amon-hOtep-
 the seer and genius of Egypt
 the Aesculapius of the Greeks
 and the founder of Medicine. 3. Confucius-
 the genius and teacher of China,
 and the father of Ethics. f. Plato
 the genius and teacher of
 Greece, and the founder of phil
 osophy.
 ). Archimedes-
 the genius and inventor of Syra-
 cuse, and the father of mechan-
 ics. G. Da Vinci-
 the genius and philosopher of
 Italy, and the founder of Mod
 ern Art :. Spinoza-
 the genius and thinker of the l
 Renaissance, and the Apostle l
 of Freedom.

 seer and singer. 10. Spencer
 the author of evolution, the ge-
 nius of research, and the father i
 Of Synthetic Philosophy. My judgment the writer says in con- clusion to his letter, is that Sulzer's list is superior to Dr. Eliot's and a little investigation on the part of those interested think will prove it to any impartial investigator. Sulzer said that true greatness depended on orig

WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.-A very
earnest band of women, feeling that
they are consulted about de-
claring a war but have to stand a
large share of the brunt of 1t, are
meeting in Washington this week.
trying to find "the cause and cure
for war" They are n very practical
lot OF women and they thought the
best way to find the cause of war
was to invite a half score of mill
tary men to address them on the
subject. They figure that II these
professional soldiers do not know
the cause Of war. nobody does.
Yet. while the soldiers know some
thing of the causes. 1t is admitted at
the outset that the professional
fighting man cares extremely little
as to the causes. Once the tocsins
are sounded. his personal ambition
thrusts aside every other thought
and he plunges in to make as much
a success as possible out Of his own
particular phase Of the proceedings.
The attitude OF the fighting man
is pest illustrated by the story of
Major Eugene Houghton. who was
machine gun officer of the first
Canadian division at the outbreak
of the war and then became at
tached to the first American divi-
sion in the same capacity. Gene
Houghton. an American. was in
Canada when war was declared.

raise a machine gun company from
among some of his old companions
who had campaigned in Central
American revolutions. He wired
two score of them, asking IL they
would join him in going to the
world war. One of the replies was
typical:
Sure It read. which side?"
Feeling that there has been en-
tirely too much "emotionalism" in
the study of wars In the past, the
women meeting here under the
direction of Mrs. Carrie Chapman
Gait are trying to go at the subject
in an entirely different way. They
pride themselves on the fact that
there is not n single peace society
represented among the nine organi-
zntions backing the present move
ment. Evidently they classify the
out-and-out peace advocates as emo
~tionalists. They are trying calmly
to reach a practical foundation from
which something concrete can be
builded.
'Propaganda'' is the arch foe at
whom the women are aiming their
attacks. This is because they feel
the OF the country are the
very first to succumb to a well
directed campaign of propaganda
And all because Of emotionalism'
There is no thought that the women
of the country can suddenly be di-
| vorced from n of the strongest
t traits in their character. from n
