The ptoblems are worked out on paper in the army and navy colleges and then put to as near a practical execution as is possible. The results are never made known to the public but are kept in the archives of the head- quarters of the two departments. Wenknesses in defense ot offense can be more readily determined and the net result is of much value, Therefore, all of these things must be considered if I have spoken of the sham battles in a spirit of jost or in a light vein, The officers and crew aboard ship fully realized that they were executing only a problem and they got as much “kick” out of Jesting about it as anyone. During the heat of battle it was not at all uncommon to hear an officer ex- claim, “Sherman was right,” and “Ul be glad when this war is over so I can get some sleep.” The fellow that made the last remark wasn't like the gob on the submarine who sald: “This life is sure tough. Why they even wake me up to eat.” Art Landry’s Orchestra To Play Thursday A real musical treat is in store for all Casper people and the res!- dents of all central Wyoming when Art Landry and his Victor Record.

Representative Theodore B. Bur- ton of Ohio, head of the American delegation, addressing a specia] com- mittee in charge of the question, In- sisted that the central bureau stiould not be connected with the league. Virtually all of the other ten coun- tries represented on the committee adhered to the idea that no central bureau should be established unless MONDAY, MAY 18, 1925 = oad Arms Crisis ° verted Plan for Central Bureau of Control Is Abandoned When U. S. Delegate Raises Objections it is placed under the league's Jur- Isdiction, Confronting this !mpregnable well, the committee decided the conelfja- tory thing to do was to make pro- gress by marching around It, There- fore, on motion of M. Lange, of Norway the committe. unanimously resolved that in its judgment the central office or bureau in the form previously proposed is not essential and that the same end can be at- tained by allowing each government to publish arms statistic: The practical effect of today’s ac- tion is that the league of nations nevertheless will collect all data re. garding arms and the result will \, be the same as {f q central office had been created under the league: gathered skirt of the third model (right) and a close fitting basque give a Spanish note to this quaint dance frock.
