DELEGATES AFFIX NAMES TO TREATIES (Continued Fjom Page One.) ■with chattering, laughing diplomats. The tension that marked previous sessions was gone and the joy felt at the end of the long drag was apparent in every face. i Secretary of State Hughes lost no time in getting to business. His gavel fell at 10:09 and at 10:10 he said he was happy to announce that the Shantung treaty had been signed Saturday. ••We will now sign the other treaties,” he said, ‘‘in alphabetical order —America, Itoigium. British Empire, China, France, Italy, Netherlands, and Portugal. It is requested that each of the delegations sign all five treaties at the same time. The American delegates will begin signing." HUGHES LEADS WAY AROUND TABLE. Amid the tremendous applause, Secretary Hughes then led the way around the big table to a smaller table in the center of the U, on which reposed the copies of the treaties. The other American delegates followed in single file—Root, Lodge, ; and Underwood. j Secretary Hughes sat down at the table, j dipped his pen and paused a moment to scan the first document. Then he signed f with a flourish. The same procedure was followed the other four treaties, j the preceding each signature. The whole- operation lasted less ; than three minutes. Senator Lodge followed Hughes and then Underwood and Root were the last of the Americans to sign. The work of signing, so far as the Americans were concerned, was finished nt 10;1S and the whole ceremony had lasted less than ten minutes. BELGIUM SECOND TO SIGN TREATIES. “Belgium,” called Secretary * Hughes, when he had resumed his chairman’s seat. There was only one delegate from Belgium, Baron Cartier De Marehienne, the ambassador, and be quickly attached fils name. "British Empire," callied Hughes, and the tall form of A. J. Balfour rose amid applause. He led the trek around the horseshoe table, followed by his five colleagues. Balfour, the distinguished veteran of every big international conference in the last half-century, was the first of the i Britishers to sign. He was followed by Lord Lee of Fareham, who in turn gave way to Sustri, the Indian, whose turbaned head never fails to evoke a whisper In the galleries. Sir Auckland Geddes followed the Indian; then came Borden of Camilla, | Pearce of Australia and Salmond of New Zealand. I APPLAUSE WHEN j CHINA SIGNS. | There was renewed applause when I China signed. Dr. Sze was first, then ! Dr Wellington Koo and then Dr. Wang, j The Oriental faces were wreathed in smiles at the obvious approval of the audiences. France followed, M. Sahaut signing amid more applause. He bowed his acknowledgment in the general direction of the spectators as Irs colleague, Amlas- ! sador Jusserand, affixed his signature, i They wp' the only two French delegates ! left, Briand and Yivianl hraving long ! since gone home. “Italy.” called Hughes, and Senor Canadian M.

Sohanzor led his way to the table. He ran his fingers through his spade like beard in a seeming-like meditative fashion as he took up his pen. Ambassador Ricco, with a flaming red carnation in his lapel, followed and then Senor Albertini. JAPANESE GET OVATION. There was a burst of applause that lasted nearly a minute when Hughes called sharply, “Japan!” Baron Kato, the diminutive, fragile looking little dynamo, signed first: then Ambassador Shidebara, and lastly M. Sanihara, his round, fat face wreathed in a grin which made him look all the more like a grinning, amiable Buddha. President Harding appeared in the lobby as the Japanese signed, and the audience lost interest in the show around the little green table. The President passed into an anteroom and waited until the Dutch and I’or’tiguese delegates, Jonkher Van Blokland and Viscount D'Alte, quickly signed. The whole ceremony of signing the papers lasted half an hour. Then President Harding took the center of the stage. FEDERAL COURT HEADS IN CLASH Judge and District Attorney in Fierce Dispute. CHICAGO, Feb. o—.Tudgo Evan Evans of the United States District Court and District Attorney Charles Clyne clashed today over handling of the investigation of the Cooperative Society of America. Judge Evans charged the district attorney and his assistants were clouding the investigation which he had ordered by letter sent out to certificate holders. In these letters, the judge said the distriet attorney's office intimated that no Federal invevstigatlon was being made. The judge stated he believed that action of John Clinton, one of the Cl.vne’s assistants. was in contempt of court and gave the district attorney one week to make necessary amends and correct the impression caused by the letters.

YOUNG FIREBUG LANDS IN JAIL Special to The Times. BLOOMINGTON, ’ Ind., Feb. 6.—Tnir-teen-year-old Robert Scott, the diminutive firebug, who made Bloomington sleep with a Auger on the trigger for several weeks, was broken hearted today, not because he was in a Jail cell, but because he couldn’t get two blazes started at the same time. Robert liked to see the fires aurn, but he had an ulterior motive in setting fbe twice to the home of C. P. Gatts. ll# said Mary Gatts, a classmate of his In the junior high school “made faces’’ at him and reported him to the teacher. When Robert was caught he had lust stuck an icepick through a note >t> Gatts’ back door telling them to leave tho_city at once or suffer the consequences. He had another note in his pocket and had obtained another icepick. Gatts and his family moved to another home. In one of Robert’s pockets was a black jack; in another were two yellow-backed dime novels; then there was a yellow mask—and the Icepick.

here today, kept in national honor, will mark the beginning of anew and better epoch in human progress. “Stripped to the simplest fact, what is the spectacle which has inspired a new hop.e for the world? Gathered about a table, nine great nations of the earth —not all, to be sure, but those most dt-„ rectly concerned with the problems at hand —have met and have conferred on tjuestions of great import and common concern, on problems menacing their peaceful relationship, on burdens thrtening a common peril. In the revealing light of the public opinion of the world, I without surrender of sovereignty, with out impaired nationality or afronted national pride, a solution has been found in unanimity, and today’s adjournment in marked by rejoicing in the tilings accomplished. If the world has hungered for new assurance, it may feast at the banquet which the conference has spread. “I am sure the people of the United States are supremely gratified and jet there is scant appreciation how marvell ously you have wrought. When the days were dragging and agreements were delayed, when there were obstacles within and hindrances without; few stopped to realize that here was a conference of sovereign powers where only unanimous agreement could be made the rule. Majorities could not decide without impinging national rights. There were no victory to command, no vanquished to yield. All hud voluntarily to agree in translating the conscience of our civilization and give concrete expression to world opinion. “And you have agreed in spite of all difficulties, and the agreements are proclaimed to the world. No new standards of national honor have been sought, but the indictments of national dishonor have been drawn and the world is ready to proclaim the odiousness of perfidy or infa my. "It is not pretended that the pursuit of peace and the limitations of arma? ments are new conceits, or that the conference is anew conception, either in settlement of war or In writing the conscience of international relationship. Indeed, it is not new to have met in the realization of war’s supreme penalties. The Hague conventions are examples of the one, the conference of Vienna, of Berlin, of Versailles ard outstanding instances t.f the other. “The Hague conventions were defeated by the antagonism of one strong power whose indisposition to cooperate and sustain led it to one of the supreme tragedies which have come to national eminence. Vienna and Berlin sought peace founded on the injustices of war and sowed the seeds of future conflict, and hatred was armed where confidence was stifled. "It is fair to say that human prog-

ress, the grown intimacy of International relationship, developed communication and transportation attending by a directing world opinion, have set the stage more favorably here. You have met in that calm deliberation aMd that determined resolution which have made a Just peace, in righteous relationship, its toii best guaranty. TIME OF CONFERENCE CALLED OPPORTUNE. “It has been the fortune of this conference to sit in a day far enough removed fjom war’s bitterness, yet near enough to war’s horrors, to gain the benefit of both the hatred of war and the yearning for peace. Too often, heretofore, the decades following Buch gatherings have bdbn marked by the difficult undoing of their decisions. But your achievement is supreme because no seed of conflict has been sown; no reaction in regret or in resentment ever can justify resort to arms. * “It little matters what we appraise as the outstanding accomplishment. Any one of them alone would have justified the conference. But the whole achievement has so cleared the atmosphere that it will seem like breathing the refreshing air of anew morn of promise, j “You have written the first deliberate I and effective expression of great powers, ' in the consciousness of peace, of war’s I utter futility, and challenged the sanity of competitive preparation for each other’s destruction. You have halted folly and lifted burdens, and revealed to the i world that the one sure way to recover j from the sorrow and ruin and stagger - [ ing obligations’ of a world war is to end | the strife in preparation for more of it, i and turn human energies to the conj struetiveness of peace. “Not all the world is yet tranquilized. But here is the example, to imbue with ! new hope all who dwell in apprehension. At this table came understanding and understanding brands armed conflict as abominable in the eyes of enlightened civilization. REALIZES DAMAGE OF ARMED PREPAREDNESS. ’ “I once believed in armed preparedness. I advocated it. But I have now come to believe there is a better preparedness in a public mind and a world opinion made ready to grant Justice precisely as It exacts it. And justice is better served in conference of peace than in conflicts at arms. “How simple it all has been. When you met hero twelve weeks ago, ihere was not a commitment, not an obligation, except that which each delegation owes to the government commissioning it. But human service was calling, world conscience was impelling and world opinion directing. “No Intrigue, no offenslae or defensive alliances, no involvements have wrought

your agreements, but reasoning with each other to common understanding has made new relationships among governments and peoples, new securities for peace and new opportunities for achievement and attending happiness. ■’’Here have been established the contacts of reason, here has come the inevitable understandings of face-to-face exchanges when passion does not Inflame The very atmosphere shamed national selfishness into retreat. Viewpoints were exchanged, differences composed, and you came to understand how common, after all, are human aspirations; how alike, indeed, and how easily reconcilable are our national aspirations; how sane and simple and satisfying to seek the relationships of peace and security. , “When you first met, I told you of our America's thought to seek less of armament and none of war; that we sought nothing which is another's, and we were unafraid, but that we wiehed to join you In doing that finer and nobler thing which no nation can do alone. “We rejoice in the accomplishment. “It may be that the naval holiday here contracted will expire with the treaties, but I do not believe It. Those of us who live another decade are more likely to witness a growth of public opinion, strengthened by the new experience, which will make nations more concerned with living to the fulfilment of God’s high intent than with agencies of warfare and destruction. Since this conference of nations has pointed with unanimity to of peace today, like conferences in the future, under appropriate conditions and with alms both well conceived afid definite, may illume the highways and byways of human activity. The torches of understanding have been lighted and they ought to glow and encircle the globe. EXPRESSES THANKS AND GRATITUDE. “Again, gentlemen of the conference, congratulations and the gratitude of the T'nitqJ States! To Belgium, to the British Empire, to China to' France, to Italy, to Japan, to The Netherlands and to Portugal—l can wish no more than Reduce Your Fat Without Dieting Yekrs ago the formula for fat reduction was "diet” —“exercise.” Today It Is "Take Marmolg Prescription Tablets.” Friends tell friends —these friends toll others.

the same feeling which we experience, of honorable and honored contribution to happy human advancement, and anew sense of security in the righteous pursuits of peace and all attending good fortune. “From our own delegates I have known from time to time of your activities, and of the spirit of conciliation and adjustment, and the cheering readiness of all of you to strive for that unanimity- so essential to accomplishment. Without it there would have been failure; with it you have heartened the world. “And I know our guests will pardon me while I make grateful acknowledgement to the American delegation— to you, Mr. Secretary Hughes; to you. Senator Lodge, to you Senator Underwood; to you, Mr. Root; to all toy uof ro your able and splendid and highly purposed and untiring endeavors in Behalf of our Government and our people; and to our excellent advisory committee which gava to you so dependable a reflex of that American public opinion which charts the course of this republic. "It is all so fine, so gratifying, so reasurring, eo full of promise, that above the mtirmurings of a world sorrow not yet silenced, above the groans which come of excessive burdens not yet lifted, but now to be lightened, above the discouragements of a world struggling t* find itself after surpassing upheaval, there is the note of rejoicing which is not alone ours or yours, or of all of ns, but comes from the hearts of men ox all the world.” KD PAIN DISTURB V3UR SLEEP!
