| LEAGUE DIVIDED
ON WAR GAS

GENEVA. May 20 Rumblings Of
breakers ahead for the League Of
Nations Disarmament Commission
were heard today when the question
OF prohibition Of poison gas and
aerial warfare was injected into the
discussions.
Hugh Gibson, leader of the Amer
ican delegation, pointed out that the
question of land and aerial arma.
nents was a regional question and
again stressed the view that these
problems should be settled by re-
gionaI agreements rather than by
any attempt at an international
agreement. Senior Perez, AIRS, 6S, 8
delegate. supported the view Of the
American spokesman.
The Chilean delegate, Senior Cone
sido. pointed out that the Latin.
American problem is the inverse Of
the European, and that II is not q
question Of reducing present arrna-
ments but Of preventing future COM
petitive Rrming.
The Polish, Finnish and Ruman-
ian delegates indicated that their
disarmament was made more diff
cult by the absence OF Russia from
the commission.

FARM BILL VOTE
DUE SOON

With only slight hopes Of reach
ing a final vote on the Haugen
bill, the House resumed considera'
ton Of farm relief legislation to-
day.
Believing the measure had been
strengthened by the Jones amend
ment, under which regional rep
resentatives on the farm board
would have veto power on pro-
posals to levy equalization fees on
particular commodities, supporters
of Representative Haugen R Iowa,
were hopeful OF polling q majority
when the formal motion is made
to substitute a less expensive bill.
Reading Of the measure. was to
be concluded today according to
estimates of party leaders, with
an off chance that the vote would
be Immediately taken.
With ratification Of the French
debt settlement and other admin:
istration measures yet awaiting ac-
ton, leaders planned to clean up
farm legislation this week.

CHILD CONCERT
IS PLEASING
By JESSIE Mcbride


The vipivoce Club! violin, piano,
voice, cello).
They are really the little folks.
Frances Gutelius is director and
teacher OF most OF the soloists.
There was plano solo. Only
one couldn't find the artist Then
emerged just above the closed top
OF the grand piano, a crop of brown
hair! And she played without her
notes. She played unsteady and
with an accent that held meaning
In musical terms. She was the
bell-ringer of the symphony.
Only one soloist was absent. be-
cause Of measles!
The "toy symphony" brought the
entire group into play. There was
q drum battery" a most excellent
string section Of serious students,
and the nightingale was heard-all
parts responding with promptness
to the direction Of the conductor
Ted Crum, who is now about
nine, gave an entire Haydn So
nata, D major, quite flawlessly, and
with q gusto that would have de.
lighted Papa" Haydn himself.
Here is a. lad OF unusual Attain-
ments. who might be said to prom
lse a Shura CherkasSy to Wash
ington. And Miss Gutelius is his
instructor.
Thelma Callahan was both piano
soloist and composer, one of the
toy symphonies being hers And
1t held original themes, nice va
riety, and q sense of real form. Her
nuency in music must not let her
neglect the detailed finish in play
Ing, however, that Is the sign of
art.
The soloists were Ruth Hay
craft, Eleanor Cox, Jane Cooper,
Lee Bailey, Jean Marion Hammer
lund, WHO gave Grieg's Morning
Mood" with surprising spirit Of the
music; William Carter, Tel Crum,
Kathryn Latimer, Nancy Drummer,
Marie Hudson, and Thelma Gala

THE QUESTION BOX {

Now that the summer season is we'll upon us and real live news is as live as ever, the editor takes advantage of existing conditions and answers few queries which have been ac- cumulating in the question pigeon hole of his desk. The first is from Phil adelphia and is as follows:
 "Are there any Skunks in Alaska ?" Answer:- This is not their native 1 habitat, but one or more have been imported and located at a consider able distance from Seward. They are of the biped variety and have little intelligence; they use their wits in knocking the Alaska Railroad and other legitimate enterprises.
 Number two comes from Chicago and is given entire:
 "I am a young girl, only IS years of age. I have lovely disposition and am considered quite handsome. Besides these attractions, I am fairly we'll educated. My fondest desire is to meet some desirable young man who 1 is comparatively poor, but who in time will have immense wealth. I wish to teach him to love me while he is struggling, marry him on the eve of his financial success, as by that method we will enjoy the riches better. am willing to do all I can to assist such young man until the time comes when he realizes his am- bitions. Surely there are many such as I desire in Alaska. Can you give me the name and address?"
 Answer:- Address Jack Skimkat, Moose Cabin street, Seward, Alaska.
 Number three is dated Seward, AL aska, and is as follows
 Have you any need of a journalist to report the doings of the Ladies' Athletic Club? If so, what are your requirements, and how great salary are you willing to pay?"
 Answer Such reporter is needed at this office. He will only be accept ed on the following conditions: first, he must whip Jack Dempsey, then train himself until he weighs $50 pounds, nearly his entire weight must be muscle; he should have the speed of a deer and be prepared to run at any time; an indemnity bond in the sum of s25O,OOO, with John D. Rockefeller, J. Jierpont Morgan, and the Bank of England as securities, must be filed with the Gateway to in- sure it against loss or damage. You will be required to pay your own doctors bills if injured and funeral expenses if killed. The salary will be S5O.00 per week, one half payable to yourself, the other half to your heirs, administrators or assigns.
