REICH BLOCKS ARMS FARLEY.
Refuses to Accept Computation of Ger

GENEVA, Switzerland May l2-DiS-
satisfied with decision to give mill
tary value to Chancellor Hitler'S Brown
Shirts in computing the strength of
fhe Germany Army. the German dele
cation at the Disarmament Conference
today insisted that French sport asso-
CiationS should be estimated in fixing
the size of the French Army
Gel. Lucien Of France retorted that
fhere is a difference between youths
armed with bombs and machine guns
and youths armed with tennis racquets
and bicycles, as are the members of
The French sports groups.
The Polish delegate contended that
If the German thesis We're accepted
Prime Minister Macdonald should be
counted as member of the English
Army, because he is a golfer.
Conference May Adjourn.
Delegates predicted that, because of
continuing tension the conference either
would adjourn after public admission
that it was unable to obtain an agree
ment or would continue with Germany
making reservations concerning unac-
ceptable clauses in the convention that
is being discussed.

Oent. Is trying TO save the parley Dy
advocating simultaneous discussion of
armed forces and war material.
Count Rudolph Nadolny, German
delegate, again refused to abandon
Germany's position that his country
cannot accept some of the proposals
in the British disarmament plan. Those
referring to conscript armies, rather
than long-term groups, were partic-
ularlv concerned.
The atmosphere was pessimistic. The
leaders even clashed ON the question Of
procedure to be followed. the count in
Sisting the conference should discuss
reduction of war material before again
considering the reduction of armed

All the others present insisted on
Settling the armed forces question first.
The possibility also existed that the
conference would vote to continue its
, work irrespective of Germenys atti-
'tude. and even possibly make con-
'yention without Germany.
Adding to the peril confronting the
conference was the declaration yester-
| day by Foreign Minister Konstantin
Ivon Neurath of Germany that what
ever reductions are achieved under the
British plan Germany will be COM
fpelled to supplement her armaments
and increase her arms

CHACO EMBARGO CONSIDERED.
State Department Believed 10 Favor
Arms Ban to South Americans.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The possibility of applying an arms
embargo to the Chaco War between
Paraguay and Bolivia is being consid-
cred by State Department officials. al
though only the House has as yet passed
the pending resolution in Congress en-
poWering the President to take such ac-
ton.
The Senate approved the same reso-
luton last session, but motion to re-
consider, made by former Senator Hiram
Bingham of Connecticut, caused it to
be left unenacted
power to Latin America in its reSolu-
tion last session, but this year the mo-
tlOn was passed without q change
There appeared little question in the
minds of department officials that i'm
position OF an embargo would be advo-
Gated by the State Department, once
President Roosevelt was given the power
and providing the nations which were
prepared to join last January still were
ready.
Although written agreement with
European powers has been denied, Of
ficials said that in January Great
Britain. France. Italy and other world
powers were ready to join the United
States in an embargo of arms to Para
quay and Bolivia.
Since that time, however, Great Brit
ain has attempted an embargo ON arms
in the Manchurian conflict. which was
Withdrawn after failure of other ma
tions to join. Whether this experience
would retard an agreement now is a
point that remains to be demonstrated
If the Senate gives President Roosevelt
the power sought.
Officials said yesterday the Para
guayan declaration had caused a re-
examination of the legal aspect of the
hostilitieS. The impression prevails,
however. that if an embargo were JUS
titled in January it was even more
justifiable now.
Committee Meets Wednesday.
Chairman McReynolds Of the House
Foreign Affairs COMMITTEES recently
took issue with international lawyers
who had questioned the constitution
ahty of the embargo resolution.
Chairman Pitman of the Senate Fer
eign Relations Committee said he ex-
pected the committee would discuss the
embargo question at its regular meeting
Wednesday if special meeting were
not called before.
At the last meeting it was decided
to invite Secretary of State Hull to
meet with the committee before action
was taken. The chairman said that
whether a special meeting were called
would depend upon whether the Sec
retary wished 1t.

For the first time since was very young, my skin has become badly biemished. l have been espe- ciaily careful of my diet lately, but it Is taking Q long time to clear my complexion. Do you advise any ointment ?"--Mrs c. r., ohio.
 The only way to clear a com. plexion quickly is to give 1t special treatment from the outside as well as from the inside. suggest an acne cream, rather than an oint. ment, because it Is specialized to soothe and dry up blemishes. Alp. ply 1t at night before you go to bod, and leave it on until morning.
 In addition. you ought to be es. pecially careful of tho way you cleanse your skin. There are sci- entihc washes made for tho pur- pose of removing blackheads and blemishes, that arc really most eff. | fective. Some of the washes are in granular form--such as beauty grains--others are in the form of Q paste. You should use a pasteur- ised cream for supplementary | cleansing, after the washing. or when you want to take off stale makeup during the day, Too much washington might prove irritating to skin that Is already sub-normal.

 If she had had enough help to keep her from wearing her heart out and slaving her body to death there is every chance she would have lived and the state would not have to care for her little children in institutions after her death.

'''Maybe you dropped 1t somewhere else this time, Mrs Rader. You are forgetfui sometimes, you know. I've noticed lately how pervous you are and how often you mislay things. You ought to take your va cation soon. You need q rest" Un- der the sweetly solicitous tones Eve and Arlene felt the sharp malice of the thrust;
 Later the envelope was found under Arlene's desk where she and Eve were quite certain Mona had tossed it. ...
 q can't think she has the nerve to consider herself in line for Barnes job. She doesn't like work we'll enough. I wonder what her game isl'' speculated Arlene.
 But Mona kept her own counsel.
 Then Eve began to miss small amounts of money from her purse. The first time she thought the loss must be due to carelessness. Per- haps she had dropped the $5 bank note when she had taken out Q small roll of bills to pay her luncheon check. She telephoned the restaurant but no one had. re- ported finding the money.
 The next loss was q smaller ono, Eve suspected Mona but had nc proof of the guilt. And of course there was the possibility that the money might have been taken by any one of dozen persons who had entered the office that after. noon. After that Eve locked the drawer of her desk in which she kept her purse.
 A few days later her diamond ring--the ring Dick had given hei at Christmas - disappeared. She had removed 1t while she washed her hands at the washstand in Q corner of the office. Eve was alone in the office at the time. The tele. phone rang while she was drying her hands and she went to take the cali.

SOUND MINDS IN SOUND BODIES
By OR. J. M. WiSAN

Healthy mouths are normally found in healthy bodies. The rela- tionship Is 0 mutual one. Factors that help in developing sound teeth also react favorably on tho body as Q whole.
 This fact was brought out most clearly in an article published re- gently in the American Journal of Public Health by Dr Fred r. Linin- ger of Pennsylvania State college. It was entitled "Relation of Milk to the Physical Scholastic Progress of Undernourished School Child ren." ,..
 In our efforts to teach children how to grow sound teeth, we stress the importance of milk supplying minerals to the body. In the re- searches. conducted by Dr Linin- ger, 1t was indicated that milk was a necessity for the proper develop. ment of systematic health and that Q child whose physical development was improved was sure to show more progress in his school work.
 Tho following quotation from the report clearly expresses Dr Linin- gers conclusion.
 Scientific evidence supports tho conclusion that 0 well developed, disease free and properly nourished body furnished the most favorable

environment for the highest devel- opment. While ones maximum mental capacity may not be actu- ally increased the existinng mental equipment may be made to func. tion more satisfactorily when phy: sical handicaps are removed anc the body is properly nourished."
 In other words, when we preach the gospel of mouth hygiene, when we teach children to eat and ade- quate diet and when we encourage them to obtain dental treatment, we are contributing to. their mental as well as their physical improvement.
 Thus another ancient maxim, known at least as long ago as the time of the Greeks, has turned out to he based on scientific fact.
 Insure mouth health by eating proper foods, practicing mouth cleanliness and obtaining prompt dental care.

 On the other hand, when women do wear evening clothes, only the latest and smartest gowns can pass muster. This, after all, Is quite logical. After spending most of the day in flannel trousers or shorts, 1t is natural that woman should feel the desire of resuming a. little mystery and femininity ct night.

Paris, (UP)-You've had two les- sons on new materials for this win- ter. but there is just one more you'll have to master before you can get your 1884 diploma. You know your silks and velvets and here's the low down on woolens.
 First, there are the light grainings. which are the result of a more coarse and twisted wool yarn. They usually form ringlets which do not unravel with wear. There also are chev- rons of different widths. in straight lines, in diagonals, in broken lines, with matt and shiny effect. in very fine Pekins. just from matt and shiny effects. They also have uneven furrows giving the impression of tree bark (we mentioned this type of weave in silks the other day).
 Next. there are worlds of woolen ottomans with more or less coarse ribbings we'll raised. Wool velvets in both plain and figured designs are popular and produce impressions that are both classical and sedate without altering ones personality.
