14 THE MORNING OREGON! AX, THURSDAY, JULY 8, 1920 GERMANS OFFER NEW DISARMAMENT PLAN Fifteen Months Asked for De struction of Guns. ALLIES HEAR PROPOSAL Slinister of Defense Says Army Is Xceded to Prevent Internal Troubles In Country. SPA, July 7. (By the Associated Press.) Thi German plan for pro- j gressive demobilization to 100.000 men in 15 months was presented to the representatives or the allied govern ments here tins afternoon, and was declared unsatisfactory to the allies The Associated Press is informed by a prominent member of the con ference that it will be examined seri ously and acted upon after the ex perts report tomorrow. The impression in allied circles to night is far more favorable than yes terday, the presentation of the Ger man plan opening the way for dis cussion and removing- danger of a rupture. Dr. Simons, German foreign minis ter, gave it as his opinion that the crisis had not yet passed. The only moment when there was any bitter ness shown at this afternoon r tes Bion was when Premier Lloyd George aaid rather impatiently: "You only have to make a law to reduce your army and execute it." Tlemlndn England of Ireland. To this Simons replied: "I wish to remind the honorable gentleman that there are parts of the British empire in which there are laws concerning the keeping of arms by subjects which the British empire is unable to enforce." The allied demand is for immediate destruction of 12.000 cannon, which the allied commissioners in Germany have under guard, together with 50, 000 machine guns. Germany desires to destroy the guns at the rate of 3000 a month. The allies hold that this is not sufficiently rapid and ex press fear that the machine guns will fall into the hands of insurrection ists. Grrmnn Finn In Examined. The military experts of both Ger many and the allies began an exami nation of the German plan imme diately after adjournment of the con ference at 7 o'clock this evening. Immediately after the conference. Premier Millerand declared to the cor respondent it was most essential that there bo complete accord between the allies, and that Germany had found that accord existed. The first evi dence of this, the French premier said, was when the allies declined to discuss disarmament in the absence of the representative German authorities. Speaking of the coming financial conference in Brussels under the auspices of the league of nations, M. Millerand said it would take place on the date originally fixed, adding 'Americans will be there, you know." The German minister of defense. Herr Gessler, during the progress of the conference said to the German newspapermen: "Jf we are compelled to disarm, then it must be done. But we will not be responsible for internal order in Ger many." Turkish Treaty to Stand. The important clauses of the peace treaty with Turkey will remain as they are, it has been decided by the supreme council. At this morning's meeting the council decided it would be impossible to grant the Turkish request for the revision of these clauses. A commission of experts will be ap pointed, however, to study the minor clauses with reference to partial re vision of the document so rar as these are concerned. The following official communica tion dealing with the conference was issued this evening: "The conference met at 3:30 o'clock this afternoon to receive the German reply regarding the surrender of ma terials and the reduction, in effectives prescribed by the treaty of Versailles. "Dr. Simons immediately rose and tet forth the extreme difficulties the German government had to face in giving satisfaction to the allies and the dangers which threatened it. He nevertheless recognized the necessity for furnishing precise data concern ing materials in existence in Germany. He said he would leave it to General Von Secht to speak on this point. Secht Wants Arms Reduced. "General von Secht thereupon handed in a detailed note on the position re garding guns, rifles and machine guns nd proposed that a proportional re duction in materials and effectives should be carried out within a period of 15 months. Mr. Lloyd George re plied on behalf of the allies and de scribed the anxiety over the situation which existed in Germany according to the statements the German, min jstrrs had given to the conference. "Several millions of rifles," he pro ceeded. still remained in possession, not only of the troops, but also the population, as well as thousands of machine guns and trench mortars. The number of soldiers under arms under various forms and pretexts exceeded 1,000,000. It was beyond comprehen. sion that a situation so dangerous a ?3 HERBERT A.

Marge O'Doone," which tomorrow midnight will close its week's run at the Lib erty theater. As with the majority of the more pretentious of this year's screen suc cesses, "The Courage of Marge O'Doone" is taken from a best seller of the same title by James Oliver Curwood, author of northern tales of daring and adventure. Its story cen ters about the search made by a young easterner for a girl whom he believes to be alone and in danger, living on the shores of a distant, al most inaccessible Alaskan stream. How he reaches and saves the girl is mingled with the tragedy of an older man, Michael O'Doone, who, when de serted by wife and child, had turned to the priesthood and through it had become a blessing and friend to every white person, Indian and half breed n the big snow-covered, fir-clad dis trict. Baree, an outlaw dog, is an animal of distinct and interesting qualities the unusual cast. Pauline Stark, who was last seen in Portland on the Majestic screen in "Soldiers of Fortune," has the leading feminine role in fact, she is one of the three women characters in the photoplay. and one of the others is a squaw with a very small part. Niles Welch plays the part of David Raine, drawn through 1500 miles of wilderness and danger by the photograph of a girl. beautiful, alone and in distress. Screen Gossip. The fir boughs used in the lobby of the Majestic theater this week as exploitation for Jack London's "Burn ing Daylight" are treated each day with cedar oil so that their fragrance will be retained. The lobby is un usually elaborate and represents the exterior of a northern miner's shack. Frank Lacey, manager of the Ma jestic, is responsible for it. The Peo ples theater for the first time in months has an elaborate front. Two frames have been used on each side of the door and in them are repro ductions of scenes from "The Valley of Doubt," the northern picture show ing this week at the Peoples theater. Out of every three persons in the United States, one goes to a motion picture show every week, or 52 times a year. Put in another way, the av erage weekly attendance at the-movie theaters of the country is now 35,000, 000. As this cannot include babies and old people too feeble to indulge in the pleasure, people in the mountains and on farms who have small op portunity; people in hospitals, asy lums and jails (although they have occasional chances to see pictures), it will be seen what a hold this form of amusement has on the public. These figures were gathered by the New York Association of Motion Pic ture Advertisers direct from the the aters of the country. Further analy sis by the association showed that the weight leaned heavily on the fem inine side of the scale. American women are evidently confirmed movie fans. These figures led the management of a leading California studio to seek further for comparisons, setting offl the motion picture against the na tional game of baseball. This was done with the co-operation of scores of sporting officials and sporting ed itors. It was disclosed that in the major league cities the average daily attendance at baseball games is about 200,000, whereas in the picture the aters of the same cities the average daily attendance is 1,737,000. In other words, the national game has only 8 per cent of the number of devotees of the national indoor amusement. "When asked his opinion of the bull fight . which the American Legion planned for July 4 in California, Lloyd Ingraham, director for the Carter de Haven production of "Twin Beds," made this reply: "They're holding the democratic convention in this state, aren't they? AVhat's one bull fight more or less?" In his current production at Uni versal City, "Hitchin' Pst-," the period of which is 1870, Frank Mayo is wearing a costume worn by his illustrious grandfather, of the same name, when he starred in "Puddin head Wilson." Paul Chalfin, an international au thority on architecture, interior dec oration and landscape gardening, has joined the forces of Cecil B. de Mille. At a fashionable Los Angeles hotel an Italian mystic was baring the fu tures to devotees of the supper dances. Beatrice La Plante, unmarried as yet sent in a request for the date of her divorce. The mystic replied that it would be in the very near future, and doesn't know yet that he fell into a trap. In Mary Hay, the bride Richard Barthelmess took from the ranks of Ziegfeld's show girls, D. W. Griffith thinks he has found great screen ma terial. So she gets a fine big con tract as well as a widely admired hus band.

Although John D.

Diseases of the skin come from be neath the surface, hence they can be reached only by remedies that pene trate down to their very source. If you are afflicted with eczema, tetter, erysipelas, ringworms, pim ples, acne, scaly eruptions, boils, ir ritations of the skin, or other similar disorders, you need not expect any real relief from local applications, and the sooner you discard their use the sooner you will be on the road to recovery, provided you will rely upon the use of S. S. S. Very often the itching and irrita tion are so severe that you feel dis posed to try almost anything for re lief, and that is why you rely upon local treatment of salves, ointments, washes and such remedies. But these remedies cannot possibly have any real curative effect upon the trouble because your disease comes from far below the surface. S. S. S. is one of, the most satis factory remedies for diseases of the skin because it goes direct to the seat of the trouble, and by cleansing the blood of all impurities and disease germs it keeps the skin free from in fection and restores it to it3 normal, healthy condition.

To Get Strong and Put on Flesh People who have tried it say that one of the quickest and surest ways In which those who are weak, thin, nervous and run down can grow strong and put on pounds of solid, stay-there flesh, is to take a 5 grain tablet of Blood-Iron Phosphate with each meal. This is doubtless due to the well-known fact that Blood-Iron Phosphate quickly builds up depleted nervous energy and at the same time supplies the iron necessary to make rich, red strength building blood: IC you are weak, thin, nervous, or are lacking . in the oldtime vigor, endurance and optimism, go to The Owl Drug Company, or any other good druggist, and get enough Blood-Iron Phos phate to last three weeks and take as di rected. If at the end of three weeks you don't feel one hundred per cent better and I aren't in every way satisfied you can have your money back for the asking. Fair, j isn't it? Better try it today. Adv.
