At Your Library “A good book is the best of friends—the same today and for- ever.” Of the many books that one can read, it is sometimes a question as to what to read to get the in- formation, recreation or inspiration one is looking for in books. But all of us like to find a book that is a little out of the ordinary, a little more or'ginal or more divert- ing than is usually encountered; one which makés a real impression as being a corking good book, and which you are cager to pass on for your intellectual cronies to also en- joy. A new book which all de- votees of the postage stamp hobby will fin@ quite alluring is the fol- lowing: THE PAGEANT OF CIVILIZA- | TIONS—F. B. Warren.

History as woven together from the tales told by post- age stamps 1y a new arrangement of the old, old theme and is made | original and diverting enough to well satisfy the reader. 383-W25. o o o SHIPS AND CARGOES — Joseph Leerning.

THREE-PONER EXPERTS MEET (Continued from First Page) propects shows that the Japanese is within closer range of poseible fruit- ful discussion than the British pro- posals, which are regarded as noth- ing less than scrapping the Wash- ington treaty and as s0 vague con- cerning total tonnage limitations as to constitute no real limitation what- ever except as to the size of war- ships, all of which would be re- duced. Hence, it is pointed out, even if the size of individual cruisers was lessened, unlimited competition would stil] exist concerning the num- ber of cruisers to be bullt. It is fur- ther pointed out that if tume of the decisions reached at Washington were to be revised here, there would be no reason why all should not be ropened, including the question of naval hases, such as Singapore and Hawali, and the problem of Ameri- can fortifications in the Yar East, Dangerous Provis‘ons The Japanese project is said to pcssess the fundamental advantage of adhering to the Washington de- cisions but also is declared to pos- sess the dangerous provision of pre- venting the replacement of cruisers over 16 years of age. Th's virtually means that the United States would only have the right to replace her existing 10 7,500 ton cruisers of the Omaha, class and the eight new 10,- 000 cruisers which are building or contracted for. This would limit the Amecrican cruiser strength to a total of 155,- 000 tons as against an estimated 125,000 tons for Japan and would be | far from applying the 6-5-3 ration to Japan. Unlimited Possibilities Another vital provision of the Japanese project is that all ships un- der 700 tons are absolutely excluded from all limitations. This would im- ply, says experts, that Japan could build an uniimited number of sub- marines slightly under 700 tons and that these operating in the islands ot the Pacific such as ths Carolines of which Japan has a mendate, could cffer formidable resistance to the advance of any fleet toward the Far East. As proof of this contention, it is .| pointed out that during the war Ger- many utilized a number of sub- marines under 700 tons which suc- ceceded in crossing the Atlantic. In general, the delegates here rep- resenting the political viewpoint re- fuse at the present time to admit the existence of impossible barriers to a successful agreement among the United States, Great Britain and Ja- | pan, but the technical experts are inclined to see so wide a divergence of views that the possibility of an agreement with great concessions is distinctly remote. OPPOSITION TO CALLES Mexico City, June 21 (A—About 1,500 delegates from all parts of the republic representing the “anti-re- election party”—meaning the forces opposed to General Obregon being the next president of Mexico—began a convention yesterday for the pur- pose of endorsing a candidate to succeed President Calles next year.
