(2 16t LEAGUE TO TACKLE i ARMS MAKING Will Discuss Convention fo Gontrol Private Munitions Geneva, Feb, 16.—Whe ternational convention to gontrol th er an in private manutacture of arms is feasi ble and realizable at the thne will be discussed February at Geneva by the | reconstructed sion, which 1s committee on The last assemt of requested the cou draft tion for the arms, mu whick wo B later internatior Tome session in I el asked the tion commit- | tee to take up this matter in Feb- ruary, and decide whether to invite the Unlted States immediately to take part in the preliminaries. Ar- ticle 23 of the covenant entrusts the league with the general control of the traffie in arms and munitions between countries where such con- trol is essential in the common in- terest. It is generally realized here tt the problem of the private m facture of arms offers infi greater difffcultles of solution than that of the control of traffic, deed, in 1921 the permanent visory military comn of Yengue reached the concluslon that no direct action, other than that al- ready provided for by the treaties of peace, can be taken # the case of producing states again€t the right of thelr private factories to manufac- ture war materials, The commission decided zlso that even if at some future time measures were con- templated to diminish production, no action should be taken to pre- vent non-producing states from be- ‘coming producers it they had the will and the means. | Later the disarmament commis- dlon suggested as reasonable meas- ures that no munitions of war could ‘be manufactured without a govern- ment license, publication by arma- ment firms of complete reports on their financial situation and montracts, auditing of manufactur- ers’ accounts by governmental agents, and the prohibition that no persons interested in armament pro- sarma Mificlally ki rdination, the league to prepare ational conv » manufact. war material, the basis of a | nee, of an At its | co-or duction could hold stock in similar | firms in other countries, or be per- mitted to publish newspapers. An- other unique idea officially put for- ward was that no warship could be transferred from one flag to another, wwithout due notice being given to e league of nations. Since 1921 the problem of private ‘manufacture has dragged on with- out seeing very great progress be- cause the opinion grew that, as a whole, it could be better attacked by first solving the question of control of the trafflc in arms from one country to another, This conclusion was based on the theory that greatest international danger arose not from the free and untrammeled manufacture of arms, but from unrestricted movement of th arms from one country to another. Jt is this phase of the problem which will be handled by the con- ference in May with the help of the United States. However, with a solution of the International traffic problem in sight, attention has been concentrat- ed anew on the problem of private manufacture, and hence the decision te examine this at Geneva. The labor interests of various eougtries have come out flatly in favor of a total and complete pro- hibition of private manufacturc of W orah think abc it takes mo a roof to A house is filled wit Plumbing ar venie nd happiness. these hu You can formu a better 1 plumbing DEPENDABLE Plumbing — Heating — Tinnir W. 139 HART ST TE Hart St. Bus Stops Here.

Dr. Floyd T. Hol- land preached a sermon on “Man or Monkey."” The climax for the congregation —and the monkey—came when he was held aloft in the pulpit, a stern finger thrust toward him and the pastor challenged anybody in the church to stand up and concede common ancestry with the Simlan. Nobody stood up up. The min- ister explained that his theme, and the live exhibit from the zoo, was prompted by the introduction of a bill in the North Carolina legisla- ture to prohibit teaching of the ev- olution theory in state supported schools.
