RENUNCIATION OF FIGHTING EXCUSES TO BE CONSIDERED | May Meeting of Wilson Organization Will Try to Bring Covenant Into Keeping With Kellogg-Briand Pact for World Peace, by Revising Terms Geneva, April 5.—() — Formulas by which excuse for going to war ‘would be taken away from the countries belonging to the League of Na- tions will be considered by the May meeting of the council of the league. If disposed of favorably, they will be reported next September to the as- sembly of the organization and probably made a part of the covenant. The covenant of the league was admittedly not a perfect anti - document when it was fashioned more than a decade ago by Presi Wilson and other internationalists. It left room for armed conflict by * recognizing that under certain circums‘ances, nations might resort to war- fare for settlement of controversies. But last September the league cccided to bring the covenant into har- mony with the Kellogg-Briand pact. renouncing war as an instrument of national policy. A committee of jurists from 11 nations was named and hhas drafted amendments which they believe will slam the door in the face of Mars. ‘The way in which this would be done is shown in the subjoined col- ‘umns, the left giving the covenent in its present form and the right show- ing the changes crcommended by the experts.

Now the purchaser finds a bewildering number of new syn- thetic fibers and so many new weaves and finishes for the old ones that the simple old fashioned tests are not at all reliable as guides for the shopper. According to Miss Grace DeLong, home economics field agent of the North Dakota women are feeling the need for reliable information. They are eager to avail themselves of such agencies as the shopping services in drygoods stores, night’ school classes and projects offered by homemakers clubs. Most of the women believe that the best materials are the least expensive in the long run. A garment of good quality holds its shape and color, and wears longer, stands cleaning better and in the end it probably pays to make it over into small garments for the children in the home. — —_ | AT THE MOVIES | —_—_—_—-——* CAPITOL THEATRE Two of America’s most popular writers collaborated on the play, “Cameo Kirby,” which, adapted as a romantic musical drama featuring J.
