Badger, Mimi, March IA
while ago l was troubled with
skin disease, a mild case of itch,
which was very distressing. 1t be-
gan on my leg and was most ag-
gravating; the more l scratched it,
the more it itched. Finally num-

what to do about it and was going
to consult a physician when
friend of mine suggested that /

with the relief I obtained after the
first application. A few more treat

I have also used Resinol Soap and

VETERANS SCOURGE.
WAR, URGING PEACE.
Ex-Service Body at Geneva
includes Germans, But
Lacks Americans.
BY The Associated Press.

6y Inc AseOCldLel TTeSs'
GENEVA, October Claiming to
speak for 100000 former soldiers.
the International Association of War
Wounded and ExService Men at
meeting yesterday went on record as
condemning war. It was the second
conference of the OrEa niZatlOn, which
has virtually the same objects as the
Inter-Allied Veterans Association, al
though American veterans are not
represented.
The resolution, proposed by
French delegate and unanimously
adopted amid applause. declares that
the men who went through the war
and still carry on their flesh marks
of sufferings they endured have a
right and duty to cola borate actively
in world pacification and rational or
CaniZation of the relations between
peoples. One part of the resolution
reads:
We express our horror of war.
recognize as the supreme goal the re-
establishment of durable peace. and
affirm that international relations
should he ba sed on respect for treaties
and the acceptance of obligatory
arbitration for solution of conflicts"
The delegates of the international
association explained yesterday that
their organization differs from the
Inter-Allied Veterans Association in
the sense that it includes German eX-
COmbatants and does not include
Americans. They added that attempts
were being made to merge the organ
iZation with the Inter-Alied Veterans.
According to some of the delegates,
certain American eX-service men have
objected TO the asSoCia ion on the
ground that it holds its conferences
in Geneva and may therefore be
Judged as having some relation with
the League Of Nations. The officers
"f the association. however. state
there is absolutely no connection be-
tween the organization and the
League and that the sessions are held
in Geneva because it is a convenient
ccnter for International gatherings.
