While the conference is to b 1 v 1 wide in its scope, no secret is made i the fact that the fundamental >bi‘ •' to be primarly attained is that of 'ln , financial, economic and industrial i 1 construction of Europe. Once Europe is thoroughly on its t«et again, the economic situation <' the whole world will benefit thereby. While it is yet too early to pred just what the Conference may attain at least two of the principal ends were clearly defined during the recent tneeting as Geneva of the exp, ' Who have fixed the program along which the conference is to he pt' Pared, The, first one of these is that of the

creation of the <, tntps of Europe nt least from an economic point of view. According to many European statesmen ami economists the curse o f Europe m ti,.. p r , ~n t t(ine lg that h Is divided into a score or more of fompetlng Industrial states. As a consequent e Europe does not present a solid economic whole in the competition with other continents to say nothing of what she suffer-- herself from her own Internal rivalry and competition Europe therefore I s out to organlz< an industrial peace ua well as u political peace By breaking down the customs barriets, Inipirt and export restrictions and other obstacles by which the industry of every European country is surrounded, Europe hopes to create a state of .- onomic collaboration such ar may he said to exist between th* individual commonwealths in the I'nited States. In the second place the leading European industrialists are hoping to arrive at inter-state agreements in each line of Industry—such as metals, tex tiles, chemicals, transportation, etc., whereby instead of each group in one state tutting the throats of similar groups in the other European states a ! may work together. In plain American English this is virtually the American trust idea applied to all of the leading industries in the European countries. Uy creation

of trusts, Europe hopes to be able to meet the competition of other continents to say nothing of helping out her own local economic situation. Another important end which Europe also, hopes to attain by the above process is that of controlling Production in all industries so that no country nor any industry may suffer from overproduction. In the meantime, the preparation for the conference is being carried on along three general lines. First —Agriculture, finance and population—the latter touching on the thorny question of emigration. Second —Industrial production, including raw materials, control of production, distribution and customs. Third —Trade and markets including freedom of trade, import and export. restrictions, monopolies, and state trading, 0 Movie Queens Wearing Many Summer Fads Now Ry Lincoln Quarberg (United Press Staff Correspondent) Hollywood. June 23—(I'nited Press) —Gay are the summer fads of the movie queens. Always irrepressible, the motion-pic-ture girls are wearing original creation- —some outlandish, some useful Knee-pads, electric-lighted dresses, transparent bathing suits and ice-caps are among the innovations. Deauville and Biarritz must look to their laurels when the film favorites give play to their imaginations. Colleen Moore, First National star, for example, is wearing wide-brimmed straw hats—from two to three feet in diameter. Mary Astor, from the same studio, has adopted the French knee-pads. These are worn with short skirts. They are buttoned affairs which stretch from the bottom of the knee-cap for the space of eight inches above it.

I felt like I was raw from the bot- ‘ tom of my stomach clear up to my throat, and I had to take soda all the time. My first and only relief came from Viuna. After the second dose I could feel it was helping me. After the second bottle all the gas, cramps, etc., disappeared for good, and now I can eat anything without one bit of fear. My appetite is good, my nervousness gone, and I i sleep like a baby at night. Until I took Viuna I had never weighed over 110 pounds in my life, and now I weigh 114 pounds, and am gaining every day.”—Mrs. Mike Hennis, Fortville, Ind.
