PRESERVATION OF WAR RECORDS ASKED a Geneva.—In the presence of the of ficial American delegation beaded by Representative Stephen G. Porter of Pennsylvania, the fourth international conference for international control of the traffic in hahlt forming nar cotic drugs opened Monday in the League of ’Nations pitadE The con ferenoe was presided over by Herluf Zable, Danish minister to Berlin, apd . leading Danish delegate to the League of Nations assembly. The object of the conference is to obtain an agreement for limitation of the exportation and importation of narcotics to medical and scientific needs. An American offensive launched at the very start appears to have im pressed the delegates to the confer ence that the United States is de termined to do everything humanly possible to bring alxiut results from an international gathering which has been convoked to strike another ef fective blow at opium and narcotic drugs. A bitter dispute between delegates of Japan and England at a different conference — one for suppression of opium smoking in the Far East—near ly disrupted the latter parley Sun day and serious fears were enter tained that its effects might be noted at the new conference.
