SHORT CUTS TIGHTEN
TASKS OF WASH DAY

Hanging out the wash on a cold
winter day is a hard task. Every
housekeeper breads it. BY practicing
few short cuts the work can be ma
terially lightened, says Mary L. Bull
of the home economics extension
group at University Farm.
Miss Bull advises that all small ar
ticles, such as handkerchiefs and nap
kins be pinned to a dish towel or
coarse hand towel before leaving the
house. Then only the towels have to
be pinned directly to the line. Many
other articles can be placed on the
clothes bars and set outside. To keep
the fingers from getting cold and
numb the container of clothespins
should be set in the warming oven
long enough to get thoroughly warmed
before the pins are to be used in
the cold, crisp air.
The task can also be expedited by
shaking out and sorting the clothes
and placing them in a basket in the
order in which they are to be hung
on the line. This can be done much
better in the kitchen than out of
doors.
always use warm rinse water in
the winter, says the specialist. "Soap
suds are more easily and completely
removed in warm water than in cold
water. Dip the hands in cold water,
wipe dry and put on white cloth or
knitted gloves before hanging out
clothes in severe cold weather. This
may seem too much trouble to some,
but does keep the hands in better con-
dition and may save time and money
in the end"

CONFERENCE NEAR
 ID GOING ON ROCKS
Disarmament Conference At
 Geneva Facing Crisis

Geneva, July 3. tPl-The prepara- tory commission of disarmament was dangerously near going on inc rocks of discord yesterday during debate on naval problems. As 1t vas, one of the fundamental princi- pies Of the Washington treaty was scrapped for the present at least
 This principle is that in comparing navies of countries the standard should be total tonnage of classes of ships, for instance. battleships, The report of the military commit tee of the commission rejected the standard as unfair in it's applica- ton to the countries who did not participate in the Washington naval conference. The report was ap- proved.
 A minority report submitted by the United States delegates which was backed by Great Britain, Ar gentina and Chile was rejected by a vote of 14 to 1. Germany declined to cast a ballot.
 During the lively session delegates or IuScSldN lds tEtN4lO0iON ihItR anu Finland vigorously protested against a portion Of the minority report which stated that army officers Of countries without coastlinos or nav ies had voted on problems purely naval and thus helped defeat the proposals put before the naval eN- perts by the Americans and British. The Americans offered to cXpunge the passage. and this was done.
 Rear Admiral Hilary Jones, U, S' S. N. who was backed by the Brit ish. introducted a brief proposal as substitute for the majority re- port. It included all the standards of comparison contained in the mi nority report. but omitted all com ment and conclusions, the proposal was rejected, but the Americans and the countries which adhered to their viewpoint will insist on sub hitting the original minority report to the full preparatory commssion on disarmament.
