ference was first suggested, the secur-
1ty problem was considered as a sec
ondary issue.
France alone declared emphatically
that she could not consider any re-
ductton Of her national defense forces
without some adequate international
guarantees for the security and integ-
r1ty Of her territory. The United States,
Great Britain, Italy and Germany
maintained that the existing peace
pacts, such as the Locarno pact, the
League Of Nations covenant and the
Kellogg-Brian pact, provided ample
nese action in China has made the
most sincere believers in those pacts
somewhat Skeptical as to their actual
value in case OF any major power in
tending to break them. Since Septem-
Der, 1881, the League of Nations and
the United States have been trying to
induce Japan to act in accordance with
her solemn pledges, but all that has
been without avail. Consequently the
problem before the leaders of the world
powers is what can be done, what new
instrument should be devised to guar
antee nations against the aggression of
another nation which might feel strong
enough to overlook its pledges.
Firm Attitude Evidenced.
It is true that lately the League Of
Nations seems to have taken a firm at
tltude toward Japan, and by resolution
OF March has practically ordered ia
pan to cease hoStilitieS in the Shanghai
area. Japan has complied only half
heartedly with the injunction of the
League. The hoStilitieS in the Shanghai
area have ceased after the japanese di-
visions had driven out the Chinese be-
yond the 12-mile limit demanded by
the Japanese in their ultimatum of last
January.
According to American delegates at
Geneva, the League Is determined to
enforce its decisions by some more
drastic measures should Japan indicate
by her actions that she intends to fur
ther fiaunt the League. The Secretary
OF State will have an opportunity to
discuss this subject with the represent
atives OF the European powers at Ge-
neVa and ascertain Wnat actual steps
they intend to take in such a case and
how far they are willing to go in the
enforcement OF the Leagues decision.
1t Is possible that out of those CONVEX
satlons some new ideas for the organi-
Zation OF peace and security in the
world may be put forward, and while
Mr.. StimSon has no power or desire to
pledge America to new commitments,
the ideas may be sufficiently construc-
tive to be put before the American
people on his return from abroad should
the political situation at home warrant
such an action on his part.

ROYAL c. Johnson
FORUM SPEAKER
South Dakota Republican to
Discuss Veterans Bonus

Representative Royal c. johnson, Re-
publican, OF South Dakota, himself a

hook-up, tomorrow night at 1890
o'clock.
The Presidents position In regard to
action now on the bonus measure will
be supported by Representative john
son, who Is opposed to the passage OF
this bill and for years has argued that
such legislation is not in the best inter-
eStS of the former service men and
their dependents.
For 18 years Mr. johnson has been
member Of the House and one of the
most active men in support Of meas
ures beneficial to the former service
men. His advice has had increasing
weight in party councils and In soldier
bloc conferences. During the World
War he enlisted in the Regular Army,
January A. 1918, and was assigned to
Company K, 313th Infantry. He was
assigned to the third officers camp at
Camp Meade, and went to France as
second lieutenant with the 18th Divi-
sion, A. E. F., July 6, 1918. He was
awarded the Distinguished Service Cross
and the Croix de Guerre.
In Congress his chief concern has
been-"What is the best thing we can
do for the World War veterans?" and
he has been zealously active in their
behalf.

He is friendly in his contacts with the

who have come here from other cities.
Admitting he has been threatened in
letters and in telephone communica-

convinced that had not the story of

nevertheless certain that his efforts will
be successful so far as the Lindbergh
baby's return Is concerned.

John Curtis goes quietly on with his

he Is a millionaire boat builder of

hand with job himself.
Although his boatmen friends know
the Importance Of his role in the kid

'Howdy, John" shake his hand and
solemnly ask him If he doesn't think
that cardboard strake ought to be re-

his newspaper interrogators.

Rear Admiral Burrage is the only
member of the trio who has leisure.
While the other two have their daily

in the negotiations 'is something of a

Stewardship of Life, Mark 1:1e-
20; Acts 26:12-19, for Sunday, Nov
27:
The stewardship of life means
that life itself is a trust committe
to us, for the right use of life
means that life is real RESPONSE
bility. This right use is found in
serving God where we are, and we
serve God by living as his stewards.
v. 16. "And passing along by
the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon,
and Andrew ths-brother of Simon,
casting net in the sea; for they
were fishers" Simon was also call
ed Peter who later became leader
of the twelve disciples. Andrew was
faithful, but less conspicuous. All
of Christ's disciples were humble
men, but the dedication of any life
is precious in the sight of God and
may be divinely led to large fields
of service.
V. II. "And Jesus said unto
them, Come after me, and l will
make you to become fishers Nof
men, Jesus did not condemn their
business, but endorsed it and lifted
it to a higher plane. The words
Come after me" meant for them to
take up his wandering life, going
everywhere to tell more about Gods
love for them.
v. 18. "And straightway they
left their nets and followed him."
They had many excuses for refus-
ing, but made no use of them.
Faith instantly leaped into fact,
conscience became conduct and love
became life.

ther he saw James the son of. Zebe-
dee, and John his brother, who also
were in the boat mending the nets"
James became the first martyr.
John wrote the fourth gospel, three
epistles and Revelation. These
two were probably cousins.
