CHARGES NAVAL BOARD IGNORED ON SEA TREATY Admiral Pringle Says His Aids Were Restricted in Opinions. An T'nitrt Prrmg WASHINGTON, May 21. Attempts to show that the navy general board was given little consideration in formulating the American program at the London conference were made by high ranking officers today in opposing the treaty in the senate investigation. The foreign relations committee also learned from Senator Reed <Rep.. Pa. i, a conference delegate, that United States concessions on eight-inch gun cruisers were due to the stand taken by Austral a and New Zealand which refused to sign the treaty if the demand for twen-ty-one cruisers of this type was granted. These two British possessions argued this would cause a relative increase in Japan's cruiser ratio. Rear Adrimal J. R. P. Pringle, president of the naval war college, told the foreign relations committee that when President Hoover called on the general board before the conference for an opinion, the board was not "at liberty” to make the sort of decision it wanted because the board understood the government already had made commitments. Members of the committee who favor the treaty attempted to discount his testimony, claiming the board was given a free hand. Pringle also revealed he was consulted only once during the London negotiations and was not called in at all after he had opposed the cruiser program of the American delegation formulated Feb. 5. He admitted the delegation had conferred with the admirals often in the two weeks before the conference began, and also admitted there was sharp difference of opinion among the naval officers as to 6inch cruisers.

FAMILY DOCTOR MADE MILLIONS OF FRIENDS

Fifteen years after his graduation, Dr. Caldwell became famous for a single prescription, which now, after forty years, is still making friends. Today Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is the world’s most popular laxative. Millions of people never think of using anything else when they’re constipated, headachy, bilious, feverish or weak; when breath is bad, tongue coated, or they’re suffering from nausea, gas, or lack of appetite or energy. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is made today according to the original formula, from herbs and other pure ingredients. It is pleasanttasting; thorough in the most obstinate cases; gently effective lor women and children. Above all, it represents a doctor’s choice of what is safe for the bowels.—Advertisement.
