ITTONI HAS FAIT - INGALL TO DISARM | jtalian Senator TeIIs Institute = Change in Present League Offers Best Hope. Ry the Associated Press. WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. August 6. —Reiterating with specific applica- tion to the disarmament conference called by President Harding a previ- ous declaration that it would be “a sreat erime against humanity not to co-operate sincerely with these ini- tiatives, which may lead to a reduction in the armaments of the great pow- ers.” Tommaso Tittoni, presidént of the Italian senate, delivered here tonight his second lecture before the Insti- tute of Politics. He expressed the belief that the results of the confer- ence will be beneficent, provided, how- ever, “all the participants give proof both in word and deed of that sinceri- ty of purpose which seemed some- times to be wanting at the conference held in Paris for th8 conclusion of peace.” Although disclaiming any intention to meddle in American international affairs, and, therefore, refusing to dis- Cuss at all the American attitude on the league of nations, Senator Tittoni expressed it as his firm conviction that world liberty and justice can be more easily achieved by “the trans- formation of the present league of nations on the basis of the principles enunciated by Italy than by the crea- tion of a new league on the aban- doned ruins of the old.” Would Include All Nations. Senator Tittoni, referring to gue of nations, said: “Amongst you as amongst all Amer- jcans there are centainly those in favor and those against ~the league of nations as it is constituted today. Well, 1 am convinced that whether favorable or otherwise you must all Dbe in agreement in affrming that if a league of nations must exist, it cannot he based on principles and founda- tions other than those which I have put forward in the name of Italy. “In_conscquence of these principle: 1 believe that the existing league of * nations should be so changed as’to include all the nations of the earth and_to gain the solid support of the public opinion of the world. Further, it is my firm belief that this end can be more easily and effectively ac- complished by the transformation of the present league on the basis of the principles that I have enunciated than by the erection of a new league on the abandoned ruins of the old. Sincerity to Be the Test. On _the question of disarmament the g the 1 r.

Italy has heartily adhered to President’s noble undertaking. will be the results? They undoubtedly be beneficent, pro- vided, however, all . the partici- pants in the conference give proof both in word and deed of that sin- erity of nurpose which seemed some- times to be w a.nung at the :onterence held in Paris for the ct peace. “In regard to Italy, no one can ques- tion_ her sincerity in this' matter, as she has already. for economic reasons, reduced her army and navy to smallest proportion.” Concluding. he said: “If President Harding’s initiativi should be the awaited signal an. nouncing that the hour of lnlernn- tional disarmament has finally come. so much the better for humanity and its destinies. _— PUTS BAN ON DANCING.

Wyoming’s political atmosphere is grow- ing clearer—tbecoming as clear, in fact, as the blue skies for which the state is noted. Tuesday’s formal announcement by Republican Floor Leader Frank W. Mon- dell that he would enter the lists for the republican nomination for United States senator one vear hence served to set at rest all doubts which have lingered in| some minds as to what would be the . jline-up in the political arena here next year, and it also served to set the tongues of the political wiseacres wagging as they have not wagged since | they obseryed the unprecedented majori- ties rolled up by Representative Mon dell and President Harding in this state last November. Everywhere the announcement was re- garded as the opening gun of the 192 {campalgn. That Mr. Mondell will = formidable opposition from Senator John B.

Instead, the opinion séemed to prevail around the hotel lobbies | and in political circles that he will win the nomination almost hands down. Some time ago it was reported, and the report accepted as true, that Frank G. Curtis, Casper oil man, was about to announce’ his candidacy” for the repub- lican nomination for the senatorship. |Later it was rumored that he might abandon that alleged intention and in- stead shy his hat into the congressional ring, with the purpose of succeeding Mr. Mondell in the lower House. Sp far no word has come directly from the Casper man, but local political observers de- clare he would have very little show of defeating Mr. Mondell for the senatorial i nomination, even though he might have some show in case he cared to enter!|for West Minster, to succeed the late some other race.
