Wiseman. Alexander Henneman has
written the music for an introduc-
ton to the picture that has been
made into piano for the "Ampico, "

The story deals with early Chris
tianity and the martyrdom Of the
Christians of Rome. The music
opens with a quiet, tender melody

Later it recapitulates much of the
tragedy of the Roman arena, with a
bass melody that sings nobly and
reassuringly, in which is depicted

Christians.
A return to the first melody
brings one, musically. to the close of
the story. which has happy ending.
DR.. Henneman, a patrician-looking
man with white-pointed beard, is a
familiar figure in Washington's
musical life, through his connection

GENEVA, April l.. The League
Of Nations has failed in it's years Of
postwar efforts toward disarmament.
That fact was unacceptable here to-
day. The nations Of the world now
must arrange their resources to
bear the tremendous burden of
armed preparedness on a scale that
is costing in the neighborhood of
SO, 700 100000 annually.
Europe and the world generally
must continue to stagger under the
present ornaments load with only
two hopes for decreases and even
those promise only slight relief. They
are:
A meager reduction in the period
of service for Europe's conscript
armies.
o. President Coolidge's three-power
conference may reduce naval arma-
ments somewhat.
Frankly States Status
That was the way competent
spokesman frankly outlined the sit
uation today after the first ten days
sessions of the League of Nations
preparatory disarmament conference
here.
The fault, they explained, was not
the Leagues, but that of nations
who refuse to disarm. With adop-
ton lo,y 4le nam nj eeioy IF tIo fret
article Of the proposed universal dis
armament convention, all hope OF
any reduction in Europe's present
standing armies was dispelled. That
article dealt exclusively with land,
or military. ornaments. The utmost
hope extended to the world was for
the sterilization of standing armies
at their present strengths.
Heavy Burden Remains
With failure of the commission
to wiring from Europe's leading con-
script nations any basis for actual
reduction of armies, no greater sue
cess was expected with either naval
or aerial ornaments. That means
Europe's five leading nations, Eng
land, France, Russia, Italy and Ger
many, together with Japan, will con-
tinue to maintain their present arma-
ments budgets which now average
$500, 100000 annually, while the
world total ornaments budget, Of
which the bulk is European, will
remain in the neighborhood of 49,
900, 900, 900 annually.
