GENEVA ADOPTS
FIRST ARTICLE
Soviet Delegate Wins Point
On Reduction Pact;
Enters Protest

GENEVA, Nov. 18.=P-The
preparatory Disarmament Commits
sion today adopted the first article
q the Naval armament section of
the draft convention providing for
total limitation and reduction Of
tonnage.
M commission then proceeded
70 seek agreement on the next two
articles which provide for limita-
tion by categories and the right OF
transfer OF a percentage OF tonnage
from n category to another.
Ihese three provisions are
parallel TO those OF the London
Naval Treaty.
The Russian Delegation sl,cceed-
ed in getting insertion of a provis-
Ion Tor reduction as well as limita-

article. Here Maxim Litvinoff. the
Russian representative. found him
self in the majority for the first
time at this session of the com
mission.
Hugh S. Gibson. the American
Delegate, the British and the
French, Joined in agreeing with
this Soviet proposal.
Soviet Protest
Unable TO agree on how to satisfy
the desire of the smaller Naval
Powers for freedom Of transfer in
more categories. the commission
entrusted this problem for study
TO a small committee made I'D OF
the chief delegates of Russian.
Japan. Sweden, Spain and Greece.
Immediately after approving the
Soviet proposal to insert the word

mission rejected a Russian effort
TO eliminate from the draft a
provision for exempting a list OF
special vessels from limitation.
Litvinoff uttered an outburst OF
indignation at Frances holding a
portion of the Russian fleet intern
ed at Bizerta. Algeria. These ships
were seized by the French and

A LITTLE LESSON

When we had finished reading it, we
felt it was one of the best lessons in char
itv we have ever met. 1t IS clipped from
the current issue of the Farm Bureau
Monthly, and we regret that we cannot
give the authors name as 1t was not
signed. We pass it on to Press readers,
hoping they will enjoy it as much as we
have. and realizing it is a lesson needed
by all of US.
Do Not Judge Too Hard
Pray don't find fault with the man who
limps,
Or stumbles along the road,
Unless you have worn the shoes he wears
Or struggled beneath his load.
There may be tacks in his shoes that hurt,
Though hidden away from view,
Or the burden he bears placed on your
back
Might cause you to stumble too.
Don't sneer at the man who's down today
Unless you have felt the blow
That caused his fall, or felt the same
That only the fallen know.
You may be strong, but still the blows
That were his, if dealt to you
In the self-same way at the self-same
time
Might cause you to staggger too.
Don't be too harsh with the man who sins,
Or pelt him with words or stones,
Unless YOU are sure, yea, doubly sure,
That you have not sins Of your own.
For you know, perhaps, If the tempter
voice
Should whisper as soft to you
AS it did to him when he went astray,
'Twould cause you to falter, too.

ON CONSTITUTION

Observing the birthday of the

to an excellent address by Dr. T.. I.
Surface on the Significance of this
event.
Going back to tn historical events
that led up to tho colonization Of
America. the speaker traced the orr
Gin of that fine yeOman spirit that
flowered in the American ReVolu.
ton. Events that led up to the con
stitutional convention were outlined
and the characters of the trainers of
his historic document were sketehcd.
DR.. Surface stressed the point that
whereas in the old world justice and
legal protection were dispensed more
or less according to the east system,
in America the constitution granted
equality before the law to all citI.
7cns. down to the humhlcst. That
the American Constitution has been
the model for many another demo
cratic constitution proves its worth
in practical idealism, according "a

NO CUP FOR SIR THOMAS

For once we are "agin' Will Rogers,
though conceding his motives IN urging
a loving cup for Sir Thomas Upton are
entitled to the highest praise.
The cowboy philosopher has suggested
that contributions of one dollar be sent
to Mayor Jimmy Walker of New York,
to purchase a cup to be given Sir Thomas
on behalf of the people of the United
States, as a testimonial of his sportsman
ship.
Whether or not VIII really meant what
he said when he suggested that contrlbu-
tions of "a buck be sent to Mayor Walk
er, is not known. It is difficult some
times to tell when the sage of Beverly
Hills is kidding and when he Is IN earn
est.
In our humble opinion Sir Thomas
needs no cup as a testimonial of his
craftsmanship. His actions over two or
three decades have won him a particular
niche in the hearts of the American peo
Pile, which would be difficult to typify by
means of anything tangible.
Again. if only a small fraction OF the
people heed Wills urging, the result
would be sum of money that would buy
a cup as large as the Leviathan.
With so many Americans IN dire need
of the necessities of life, to tie up so large
a sum in a token of affection is as sense
less as Uncle Bins S4,000,000 gift to the
Widow Zander.
If Will would change his plans so that
a sum might be raised to endow some
worthy charity as token Of esteem for
Sir Thomas-a home for aged seamen.
for instance, or an endowment to take
care of crippled children - then we are
for it. hook, line and sinker,
And if any sum is collected, it is all
right with US to put it in Jimmy Walkers
personal keeping, but in view of the
present bad odor of some of his political
