Laughlin Of the motor vehicle bureau
Of the State Department Of Revenue
pointa out today. He urged all those
car owners who have not yet pur-
chased their new license plates to do
so at once unless they want to run
the risk Of being arrested after Janu-
airy /.
IF those who have not yet pur-
chased their new license plates will
either go to the nearest branch office
today or tomorrow and buy them or
order them by mail from the bureau
here in Raleigh. they can avoid pos
sible serious delay and get their IL
censes before January L." Mclaughlin
said. For there is always such a
rush the last day or two that some
are unable to get their new licenses
in time to use them Another con-
sidcration is that there will Re no
extension granted, which means that
those who take the risk of driving
their cars with the old 1885 license
plates after January !, will run the
'isk Of arrest by the highway patrol.
So the wise thing to do is for those
who do not yet have their new Ii
cenSes is 20 get them at once"

proach Great Britain, Japan and the
United States If we moved against the
current Of progressive thought. We
three nations, the principal naval pow
ers, have nothing to fear from one
another. We cannot escape our re-

am convinced that II the basic
principle Of continued naval limitation
with progressive reduction can be
adhered to this year and next, the
technicalities of ship tonnage, of ship

France and Italy, which are full par
ties to the Washington treaty, will see
their way to participate fully in our
efforts to achieve further naval hmita-
ton and reduction.
The important matter to keep con-

ciple of reduction-the maintenance
Of one Of the greatest achievements
of friendly relations between nations.

to agree on this percentage, please
seek from the British and Japanese

The text of President Roosevelt's
letter of October S, 1894, quoted by
Norman Davis to present the aims OF
the United States in the London Naval
Conference, which opened today, fol-
lows:
In asking you to return to London
to continue and expand the conversa-
tions begun last June preparatory to
the Naval Conference in 1885, I am
fully aware of the gravity of the prob
lens before you and your British and
japanese colleagues. The object Of
next years conference is Ito frame
new treaty to replace and carry out
the purposes of the present treaty"
The purposes themselves are ito pre-
vent the dangers and to reduce the
burdens inherent in competitive arma-
ment" and Ito carry forward the
work begun by the Washington Naval
Conference and to facilitate progressive
realization of general limitation and
reduction of armament"
The Washington Naval Conference
Of 1922 brought to the world the first
important voluntary agreement for
limitation and reduction of armament.
1t stands out as milestone in civiliza-
ton.
Adheres to Goal.
1t was supplemented by the London
naval treaty Of 1880, which recognized
the underlying thought that the good
work begun should be progressive
in other words, that further limitation
and reduction should be sought.
Today the United States adheres to
that goal. That must be our first
consideration.
The Washington and London treaties
were not mere mathematical for
mulae. The limitations fixed on the
relative naval forces were based on
the comparative defensive needs of
the powers concerned; they did not
involve the sacrifice Of any vital in
terests on the part of their partici-
pants; they left the relative security
of the great naval powers unimpaired.
The abandonment of these treaties
would throw the principle of relative
security wholly out of balance; it
would result in competitive naval
building, the consequence Of which
no one can foretell.
I ask you, therefore, at the first op-
portunity to propose to the British
and Japanese a substantial proper
