BY PAUL SCOTT MOWRER. By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News. EVA, September 5.—The issues in the great disarmament debate now are clear. The first question is whether disarmanent shall be fully | consindered hers now by the League| of Nations or left by general con- ference later which might be attend- ed by the United States, Germany and France wants disarmament dealt with here and refuses to countenance the idea of a general conference elsewhere. Great Britain believes/ that disarmament without the United States, Germany and Russia is im- practical, and therefore insists on a seneral conference, but is willing that all be held at Geneva under the auspices of the league, and believes that the United States, Germany and Russia could be persuaded to co-op- erate. Would Last Months. The conference, according to Brit- ish ideas, would last many months ud the work would be done in com- missions while the chiefs of state would attend merely periodically to d direct the work. d question is whether the cnt debate shall be based on the Xt of the league's draft of the treaty of mutual assistance or some new text. The British want a new text. The French will defend the league's text, but largely as a matter of form. They are willing to modify it even bebyond recognition, The third question is that of com- rulsory arbitratibn of International disputes. France and Great Britain, and indeed the whole league assem- bly, seem no wto consider develop- t of this idea as the only way to organize world peace. Many detalls, however, remain to be settled; for cxample, whether the so-called op- tional clause of The Hague Court constitution is sufficient or whether W new text is n ¥, whether the arbitral body should be The Hague Court or some new body, whether this new body should be permanent or specially chosen in each case, and finally whether all disputes or only some should be arbitrated, and which disputes. Think Sanctions Provided. The fourth question is that known diversely as security or sanctions. The British think the league covenant already provides sufficient sanctions , to make the arbitral award effective and to restrain aggression. The French consider the covenant vague and want a definite understanding in writing that the signatory states will make common armed cause against aggression. There is something like agreement that the so-called American plan gives the best and most practical definition of aggression and there is 2 good chance that this American feature will be adopted. The fifth question is that of par- ticular defensive alliances under the league auspices. Great Britain is radically opposed to these alliances and will do everything in its power to dissolve them. France considers that only such alliances can provide the immediate defensive measures necessary to check aggression pend- ng the time when all league members (il rally to the victim's support e immediate problem of Premiers rriot and MacDonald is how to Teconcile the oppesing. positions.

Bank Notes. From Life. A cashier who is short in the bank will probably be long in jail. Whenever the bank balances your account you begin to doubt the in- fallibility of adding machines. Your balance is the amount the bank says you have, and which you can't disprove. Bankers are good Samaritans who. whenever “money” gets “tight.” nurse him carefully until he gets over it. The origin of the word “teller” Is this: Formerly the cashier took in and paid out the bank funds. Then came the first woman to make a de- posit. THe cashier endeavored to ex- plain to her the method of using a check book. At last, exhausted, he called to one of his assistants, say- ing “You tell ‘er; I'm all in.” The a sistant succeeded and the position of teller was created for him on the Open all day Saturday We discuss Hats from the acknowledged standpoint of leadership — featuring Mode Special In all our experi- ence we have never had the distinction of offering such a Hat.

The anclent palace of the Sultans of Turkey at Constantinople is called the Seraglio. It is beautifully sit- uated on the site of ancient Byzan- tium, and incloses within its walls an area of nine square miles, irregularly covered with baths, mosques, kiosks, gardens, and cypress groves.

For some time adventurers and ac- tual commercial syndicates have been hunting for a fortune fabled to have been left by that sturdy old chap, “Oom Paul” Kruger of the Transvaal. There is nqw a rumor that a part of his fortune in gold bars and coin has been dug up. Kruger left an estate valued at three and three-quarter million dollars. More than three mil- lion dollars in gold, representing the bulk of his wealth, was cemented in the hold of the bark Dorothea, which #ank on Tenedos reef, off the coast of Zuzuland, about 20 years ago. This money has never been recovered, so far as is known. —— GASOLINE 16 1-2 CENTS. ABERDEEN, S.

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 1924. 4 PER CENT OF TOTAL Tonnage in 1914 Was 12 Per Cent of World’s Shipping—Hope for Gains. & By the Assoctated Press. HAMBURG, September 5.—The Ger- man merchant fleet constitutes only 4 per cent of the 1924 world tonnage as against 12 per cent in 1914, ac- cording to the annual report of the MHamburg Shipbuilding Association. The prospects for further construc- tion which so far is only & per cent of the German pre-war tonnage, is designated as exceedingly gloomy. The operating expenses are declared now to be equal to the world's stan- dard. The assoclation deplores the lack of a commercial shipping agreement with most countries as handicapping German shipping. It opposes exces- sive protective tariffs and supports the principles established at the In- ternational Shipping Conference by virtue of which every country will tax its own shipping and permit for- eign ships to be immune. The report declared that the inaugu- ration of the Dawes plan: will en- liven world trade so that shipping eventually will profit. COSDEN’S BIG MONTH.
