Hugh \. Frampton. president of

OF the bus service that his community
has had in the past two years.
He reminded the association that the
present system was only a temporary
one, and expressed his belief that the
Washington Railway d Electric Co.
operated the bus merely to keep out
rival competition. He described what
he called the nihblinG process on the
part Of the Washington Railway 4

through extra charges for transfers.
The present system operates on an
hourly schedule with half-hour service

BULLARD DEFINES

NASHVILLE, Tenn, October IL
Whatever impatience European ma

slow entry and our quick exit" they
cannot censure us for ''meddling in
the World War" Maj. Gen. r. l.. Bull
lard, u. S. A. retired, said in his ad-

dents killed in the war.
Until the European war touched the
American soldier and his country, it
was not his war, Gen. Bullard said
The spirit of the American soldier was
that of devoted nationalist, think
ing sometimes of other nations, but
always holding his own above all
others"

NEW ARMS PARLEY
: SEEN AS NEXT STEP
Coolidge Prepared to Call
Conference if Convinced
Other Powers Want 1t.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

The next step in the evolution of
world peace now is a disarmament
conference-or, rather. to he tech
nically correct. n conference to re-
duce and limit the size of standing
armies and further limit the use of
naval and air weapons.
President Coolidge stands ready to
call such n conference if the idea
is approved by other powers. The
League of Nations has prepared TO
call a conference, hut there is little
doubt that Europe would defer to
the wishes Of Mr.. Coolidge if he
cared to convoke the parley sooner
than the one scheduled by the League
of Nations.
The President has indicated his
desire for reduction of armament in
: several speeches, but has always con
dtioned his promise on the making
of a security pact between European
nations which would make it possible
for public opinion everywhere TO APP
prove reduction in military expense
with an assurance of safety.
Reasons for Large Army.
France has argued for large
army on two grounds: Germany's in
cliRation to avoid payment of repara-
tions and the possibility of a German
invasion when once France had dis
armed. Now the Dawes plan has been
set in operation answering the first
objection and the Locarno conference,
at which France and Germany have
agreed on the neutrality of the Rhine
zone and arbitration, is an answer TO
the second objection.
Most compelling of all rea sons, how
ever, is the economic situation in
France, where NJ. CaillauX, finance
minister, is in the midst of a crisis
calling either for levy of capital on
the wealthy or intensive taxation of
rich as well as poor. If he could
foresee a material reduction in mill
tary expenditures, he would begin to
see the way open to solution OF
Frances fiscal troubles and incl
dentally the beginning of payments
to the United States on the war debt.
Brought Better Atmosphere.
America has had a material as well
as a moral interest in disarmament
conferences. The conference called by
the late President Harding not only
made it possible to reduce naval eX-
pense in Great Britain, Japan and the
United States, ending the purposeless
competition, but it removed war
clouds by developing a better inter
national atmosphere. If the feeling
after the limitation of land armament
should be that an era of peace is forth
coming investors in America would
feel more like lending their money to
European productive enterprises and
the whole face of things would be
changed. The disposition of Europe to
settle it's own affairs is pointed TO as
vindication of two policies-both
the Republican and the Democratic.
The Republicans are pleased, be-
cause, they say, Europe has been en-
courag under the Harding and Cool
idge administrations to settle Euro
pean problems first, and American

LOSS OF REST AND SLEEP is HELD
MENACE TO THE PUBLIC HEALTH

An appeal to the hotels. cafes and
other places of amusement in the Ma
tional Capital to inaugurate a move
ment toward starting social functions
early in order to conserve the energies
and health of the people was made
by DR.. J. Rozier Biggs, in addressing
the Cosmopolitan Club at it's weekly
luncheon meeting at the Franklin
Square Hotel thursday.
DR.. Biggs, who is the medical direc-
tor of one of the large nationally
known insurance companies. declared
in his talk that a considerable amount
of concern is being manifested by the
big insurance companies over the
present standard Of living and the
little sleep taken by the people of
America. SO great a problem has
this become that. according to DR..
Biggs. insurance companies are now
investigating the habits of those de-
string to be insured in regard to the
hours they work. sleep and spend in
amusement. This is now considered
on an equal with a physical exami-
nation.s he said.
Advocates Eight Hours Work.
DR.. Biggs urged return to the
eight hours work, eight hours play
and eight hours sleep basis. Statis-
tics, he said, show that in the country,
where doctors are few, sanitary and
health conditions irregular, people are
now living longer because of the regu-
larity of lives.
L see no reason why dance should
begin at 10 pm. and last until m.
when it could be started just as easily

functions be started earlier. Il ap-

ACTION CONTESTED;
Court Hears Arguments on
Standards Plea Against
Eviction From Oil Holdings.

Chief Justice Mccoy of the District
Supreme Court today heard arsu-
ments of counsel on the injunction
proceedings brought by the Standard
Oil Co of California against Hubert
Work, Secretary of the Interior, to
prevent the prosecution of proceed
ings at Visalia, Calf, to evict the oil
company from its holdings within the
Elk Hills naval reserve.
Arguments were made by Attor-
neys Oscar Sutro and Frederic ID. Nc
Kenney for the oil company. and by
w. c. Morrow, special counsel for the
Interior Department, and H. l..
Underwood, assistant attorney gen
eral. It is expected the court will re.
serve its decision.
Secretary Works Answer.
In his answer Secretary Work de-
nies that the State of California took
title to the land in controversy in
1903 or at any time. as the land, he
asserts. was known to be mineral in
character and could not be selected in
lieu of school lands. He declares the
court has no jurisdiction to pass on
the question of the mineral or non
mineral character of the land as the
law places such determination exclu-
sively within the province of the De-
partment of Interior. Not having a
lawful title. he says. the State of Cali
fornia could not and did not lawfully
sell the land to the persons from whom
the Standard Oil Co. obtained title
through purchase.
Mr.. Work refers to the joint resol,I-
ton of Congress passed February 81,
1924, by which he is directed to begin
proceedings in California to establish
the title of the United States to the
land within the borders of the naval
reserve No. J. AS the suit is to estab-
lish title, he points out, the United
States is a necessary party and he
asks that the suit he dismissed since
the United States has not consented
to be sued.
