tween the views OF the continental
military bloc and tho varying fol-
lowing OF tho United States and

parent. The continental countries,
frequently with the assistance OF
Japan and various South American

whole and must be treated as a
single problem.
2. Any limitation agreed upon
shall be applicable only TO peace
time electives.
No Chemical Warfare
3. Chemical warfare shall be elm
mated.
4. Naval reductions must be made
upon a basis OF total tonnage and
guns.
3. Military reduction must be
made on a basis OF peace.time effee-
tlves, period of service, training and
war material In service, with consid-
Grafton being given to trained re-
serves and material in stock.
6. Aerial reduction must be made
on n basis OF total horsepower and
number OF planes; and total horse
power and cubic meters for dlrig-
ibles, Consideration will be given to
the total number Of pilots.
Z. Budgetary appropriations do
not constitute n practicable basis for
comparing or limiting ornaments.
Armaments Defined
The commission defined arm
lments as including:.
/. Peace time electives.
.. Forces" prepared for war,
such as trained reserves and ma
terials In Use or In stock.
3. Ultimate war strength Including
raw materially and tho ability TO

COOP BILL IS
READYFOR THE
PRESIDE \ I
CBy Dispatch A. T. wire)

WASHINGTON, June S0.-Congres-
sional action was completed today on
the administration cooperative mar
keting bill with acceptance by the
house of the senate amendments. IL
now goes to the president.
After rejecting, 1876 to 81, mo-
tion to send the measure to con-
ference the house without record
vote approved two senate amend
ments.
Sponsored by Secretary Jardine. 1t
would create division in the agrl-
culture department to foster the de-
velopment and work of farmers CO.
operatives, and appropriation of $225,-
600 would be authorized.
The bill was approved last night
by the senate after it had rejected
the Fess farm credits bill, endorsed
by President Coolidge, to which It
had been proposed as rider When
it came back to the house today,
Representative McDuffie, democrat,
Alabama, moved to send it to con-
ference. He was supported by a
group of democrats and few repub-
licans who opposed a senate amend
ment to eliminate naval stores from
the commodities to be classified un-
der the bill as agricultural prod
uts."
The other senate amendment, de-
signed to broaden the scope of the
proposed cooperative division, was
accepted without debate.
The committee would be directed to
Investigate and report to the senate
if relations of the secretary of
commerce, past or present, with GER
tain grain exporters and of the sec
retary of agriculture with firms or
schools devoted to practicing or
teaching speculation in grain are

The committee which would con-

CRYSTAL CAVE
is THIRD TO
NONE in u. S.
BY LUCY ALvERSON,
72O Nineteenth Street.

A beautiful climate, the wonderful
scenery of the Crystal cave on the
south end of the Huachuca noun
tains, makes it one of Cochise coun-
ty's most beautiful spots, and cav
ern that is a freak of nature, that is
third to none in the country. From
the peak of lime in which the cave
is formed you can see the smoke
from the Douglas smelters so miles
away. At night you can see the lights
from Naco, and to the south the lights
from the great mining camp, Cana
nea, rs miles away from the border.
To the southwest is a level country
called Mesa, that you can see across
for 100 miles. The cave has an easy
entrance and the apartment is a large
chamber about GO feet square, with
the floor as level as that of dance
hall.
Different small apartments lead
from the main cavern. The main
cave has a pillow made by dripping
rain water which probably took ages
to form. And by tapping the pillow
with steel wire it gives you sweet
music that sounds like the finest
mandolin, which floats or echoes
throughout the cavern in such a way
you can't distinguish which direction
the music comes from.
BY playing any musical instrument
it sounds like a band of music that
is floating or rebounding from wall
to wall 1t would be the home OF
beauty seekers or the joy of music
seekers.
