LEAGUE FAILURE IN ARM EFFORTS FACEDSQUARELY Members of Council Without Illusions Over Third Collapse. Bit United rre.ss GENEVA, April 13. —No illusions remained among members of the League of Nations' preparatory disarmament commission today relative to the failure of that body to achieve its purpose, which was the preparation of a convention for world-wide disarmame'nt to be submitted for consideration at a forthcoming league disarmanent conference. The commission will remain In session until tomorrow, engaged in academic discussion, and will reconvene later to approve its report. But that report will recognize that unanimous agreement has been impossible on virtually every fundamental point. The league council will meet June 13 and after being officially informed of the commission’s inability to obtain unanimous agreement the council probably will merely refer the report to the September meeting of the league assembly. Great Effort Futile Following the failure of the league’s effort to create a vast structure of pacts of mutual guarantees and the failure of the Geneva protocol for arbitration, security and disarmament, the present failure of the disarmament commission marks the defeat of the league’s third great effort to lay a foundation for permanent peace. Speaks for United States Hugh S. Gibson, United States minister to Switzerland, made a supreme effort today to conciliate the American position as a non-member of the league with the league's plans for disarmament. Gibson said that if all other league members desired league control in the supervision of the enforcement of any disarmament convention which might be agreed upon, the United States, although fundamentally opposed in principle, would not oppose such a program. This, Gibson explained, was on condition that the United States be eliminated from the machinery of such control. RICH MAN FIGHTS FIRE Pierre S.

KEEP LOOKING YOUNG The secret of keeping young is to feel young—to do this you must watch your liver and bowels—there’s no need of having a sallow complexion—dark rings under your eyes—pimples—a bilious look in your face—dull eyes with no sparkle. Your doctor will tell you ninety per cent of all sickness comes from inactive bowels and liver. Dr. Edwards, a well-known physician In Ohio, perfected a vegetable compound mixed with olive oil as a substitute for calomel to act on the liver and bowels, which he gave to his patients for years. Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets are gentle in their action yet alwavs effective. I hey bring about that natural bouvancy which all should enjoy by toning up the liver and clearing the system of impurities. Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets are known by their olive color, loc 30e and 60c.—Advertisement.
