France Declines Coolidge S
Suggestions-ltaly Ex-

official communique. 1t is an

WASHINGTON. Feb. 10
Possibilities of a move toward
a Four-Power naval conference
at Geneva, with France elm
mated, loomed with receipt of
the French reply to President
Coolidge's proposal declining
his suggestions Oh a naval arm
ament conference.
The French communication

the success Of the Preparatory
Disarmament Commission Gre
ated by the League of Nations

the French opinion, affords
place where the American pro-
pcsal can be effectually e. ~
ined."
Secretary of State Kellogg.
commenting on the French re-
ply, said that there appeared
to "be several points in it
which must be caused by a mis-
understanding of the full pur-
pose of Coolidge's proposal. 1t
seems to me that a postpone
ment to an indefinite future of
all efforts to grapple with the
problem of competitive naval
building would strike serious
blow to the whole cause of dis
armament. l very much hope
that before the Geneva confer
ence is ended, the French Gov
crnment will lend its aid to-
ward consummation of such an
agreement
In view of the French atti-
tude, official attention centers
on Italy's reply which may be
an acceptance of Coolidge's pro-
posals.
Some officials 60 SO far as to
say that the French refusal
makes Italian acceptance more

From Anxious to Hopeful

Dear Miss Lee: I hope you and
Hopeful will pardon my delay in
writing, for have had sickness in
my home the last six weeks and it
seems as though I don't have tins.
l have not accomplished much as
yet in regard to improving myself
other than taking beauty treat
ments and exercising. Isn't it
amusing what lengths we women
will go to for the love of man?
Hopeful, you are all wrong about
your husband. Do not accuse him
OF being with other women or blame
him for going out at night. No one
on earth could make me believe my
husband was untrue to me. But if
such a thing should happen, I would
feel and know that in some way 1
had failed him.
God said, Unless you believe in
Me you can not enter the Kingdom
OF Heaven" Your confidence in
your husband and his love for you
is your heaven on earth, so why not
believe in him? Make him under
stand, Hopeful, by little deeds of
love that you trust him and he will
not break that trust.
ANXIOUS.

Alien State
ofChidren
and Parents
BY MARTHA LEE

MY mother does not understand
me-"
This is the complaint of thou
sands of young girls today. And
their complaint is trr-
But it is equally true that they
do not understand their mothers.
Kinship in blood does not guar
antee kinship in spirit. With our
own blood as with outsiders, we
either strike fire or we do not. Our
personalities either tune in or an
tagonize.
1t is sad thing to be an alien
in your own home: to lie misunder-
stood by your own flesh. But when
1T happens, the only thing TO 90 Is
to make the best of it.
If a chaspn yawns between you
ana your mother, try to remember
that it is as painful to her as to
you. Remember that she probably
Graves your understanding as much
as you crave hers. Moreover, you
are younger and more malleabls
than she is and can adjust your
self to her more easily than she
can adjust herself to you.
1 do not mean that girls should
not have ample freedom in which
to expand and develop their own in
dlvidualities, but do mean that
little diplomacy will do much to
quiet active antagonism among
families.

Women Faddists

Because women make fad Of
things" they are endangering the
whole future of aviation, says Thea
Rasche, famous German aviatrix,
now in this country. There should
be more preparation and less fool
hardness in the selection of planes
and preparing for trans Atlantic
flights" she says. "It is so detri-
mental to aviation for women who
know nothing about it to buy air
planes and try flying as passengers
Just because they have money
enough to hire pilot and buy q
new plaything."
And what comeback can one
make when one knows perfectly well
that American women are exactly
like that?
