WOMEN OPPOSE WAR CHEMICALS AND SUBMARINES Want Conference to Adopt Three Policies Relative to Warfare.

Special to Indiana Daily Times and Philadelphia public Ledger. By CONSTANCE DREXEL. WASHINGTON, Dec. 6—That poison fas and new weapons of warfare should e outlawed by the Washington conference is the contention raised by many ’women, especially through the women's committee for world disarmament. The contention was voiced by Miss Emma Wold, chairman, to Sieeretary Hughes in an interview Nov. 21. At that time she submitted the opinion, “that action toward the total abandonment of submarine and chemical warfare is confidently looked for by the American public, saving that such action would hearten the Nation.” Now the same committee, through Its affiliations in all parts of the country and through the National Council for the Limitation of Armaments, of which It is a member organization. Is stirred to renewed activity by the news that the organized chemical Industry and the chemical warfare department of the TTnited States Government are striving to win the four women advisory delegates to their opinion that poison gases and such must be manufactured and kept In preparation as preparedness for war. In view of the fact that those and other new weapons of warfare is one of the subjects on the agenda of the present conference on which no policy has yet been stated, much speculation and discussion Is going on, not only among women watching the conference but In ■rmy and navy circle*. There are three policies which the con. lerer.ee might adopt, as follows. 1. Abolishment of pulyon gases, aerlnl bombs nnd other wholesale means of destruction as far as humanly possible through international agreement. 2. Attempted control of the yet nnmeasured powers of ehrmiral science by rules such as only for noncombatants, only for defensive war, etc.

8. No international control, allowing each country to manufacture and control Its own. The women are contending for the first policy, aften Including submarines in ■what should be outlawed. For Instance, telegrams were received today by the President, Secretary Hughes ar.d other conferees from the New York council for limitation of armament, made up of representatives of State and city women's organizations such as the American Uni versity Women, the New York League of Women Voters, the Y. W. C. A., etc. They asked for the elimination of the submarine and control of poisonous gases by International agreement. On the other -hand, one hears everywhere In Washington of former big Army and Navy advocates now switching over to “Preparedness In chemical warfare,” as a cheaper and quicker means of killing human beings and the cities they have built. Which side will win no one knows. The four women advisory de’egates are silent. It Is generally conceded here in Washington that the conference will go just as far, certainly no farther, than public opinion makes It go. Therefore, expressions from groups of people are welcome, even though they would eeem to press the conference to greater action If, tendered -in a helpful spirit. Such an expression is bound to come on Dec. 8, when representatives of the thirty-five organizations \ making up the notional council for the limitation of armaments' have been called to a meeting at the house they occupy at the seat of the conference. Another expression of opinion is awaited from the group headed by Miss Jane Addams, president of the International Women’s League for Peace and Freedom. The district of Columbia branch is planning a mass meeting for Dec. U, at which Miss Iddams will speak. With considerable icduence iu many of the capitals of Eurcpe, her address is awaited with keenest Interest. —Copyright, 1921, by Public Ledger Company.

To a half-pint of water add 1 ounce of bay rum, a small box of Barbo Compound and Vi ounce of glycerine. These ingredients can be purchased at'any drug store at very little cost. Apply to the hair twice a week until the desired shade is obtained. This will make a grayhaired person look twenty years younger. It does not color the scalp, is not sticky or greasy and will not rub off.” —Advertisement.

Girls! Gather Around

And let me tell you how to beautify your skin and complexion, says Mae Edna Wilder, the famous beauty specialist. In the first place, don’t waßh your face with soap and water;’ use a good cleansing cream instead. It takes the dirt out more thoroughly and leaves the skin soft, smooth and velvety, and never chaps the skin. Just make this test. Wash your face thoroufchly with a good soap and water, then dry and apply Llska cold cream. Massage it well into the skin for a few minutes, then wipe off with a soft, clean cloth and note how much dirt appears on the cloth. You will then realize that there is nothing better to cleanse and soften the skin than Liska cold cream. I have used this cream tn my work for years and. although I have tested many creams, have never seen Us equal. Give It a trial and you will become as enthusiastic over it as I am. It keeps the skin youthful looking, and is wonderful after an auto ride or exposure to sun and wind. Let hubby or brother try It after shaving. It will prove a delight. If your skin chaps easily apply a little of this wonderful cream before going out. After your bath use Liska cold cream on your face, lips, hands and arms. It prevents roughness and gives you a skin as soft as velvet and as beautiful as a rose.

You can secure Liska cold cream at toilet counters of department stores and druggists everywhere under a positive guarantee that if, after the very first application you are not satisfied, you get your money back. X know of no other cream sold under such liberal terms. In this way you really get a trial without costing you a single penny—if it fails to please. It is put up In large tubes, the only sanitary way. Note: It is sold under the above guarantee in this city at the toilet counters of ail department ..stores and druggists, including the Hook’s Dependable Drug Store* and the Haag Drug Co,—AdverM. nrl r
