IMS Editorial Correspondence San Francisco. May 10. War There will be no more war decide to use force. They will hardly decide so to do unless they believe their resort to force will be successful. Ok, there is the situation. Now how to prevent the nation or nations which have decided to use force and believe they can make their force prevail, from taking such action. That is the chief problem before this conference. Former Premier Joseph Paul-Boncour of France believes the only way this can be done successfully Is by the establishment of, we quote: "An International army, navy and air-force that can move within a matter of hours Into security zones near the center of dispute, and take immediate action. Unless this is done, not only can a war start but a blitzkrieg can be won, before any League could collect the military forces promised to be lent for the emergency." We agree 100 with M. Paul-Boncour. But unless we are completely off the beam as far as this gather ing is concerned, there Is no more chance of such a plan being adopted 'than there is of Lord Halifax doing a strip-tease at the corner of Market and Montgomery at high noon tomorrowl Quite an Important statement was made here by the daughter of former President Wilson the Shortly before his death. President Wilson told his daughter that he had come to realize It was defeated his League of Nations, were not yet ready for it, and public opinion would be doomed 'So you see" concluded the great war president, oi a quarter oi a century ago with a smile, "God Yes no doubt GOD does. We don't expect the document ference will be defeated by the Senate, we believe It will be passed and will be hailed as a milestone In the steady march toward a warless world.-Mvhich in all likelihood It will be, not the end of the trip but a milestone. But we also believe experience no document, no international agreement, that isn't backed by force and IMMEDIATE force, will ever prevent war, when the conditions that make war again arise, as they willl On the other hand, to pass such the people of this country. and we fear the world, are not ready for It, probably would be as disastrous today, as President Wilson declared favorable action regarding his League would have been 23 years ago. "God knows best!" Although plenary sessions have being, and the people of San Francisco. (with tickets) are pretty sore about it, the press boys here are busier than ever for there Is another press conference about Even Mr. Gerald K. Smith, the so-and-so held one yesterday, and Harry Bridges (what a Juxta position that is!) has one on for this afternoon. And Mr. Henry Kaiser, who lsn t exactly averse to having his picture and state ments in the newspapers, blew himself for one yesterday with the war In Europe over he is going to build concrete HOUSES on the wholesale as he did liberty ships. The plain truth is it would take more than one two-legged man to cover all of these press conferences, although it is also true 90 of them have SOME news value. The result Is the reporters here pick and choose according to their tastes and those of their newspapers. ' Among other things this man Smith, we wager, made two dis tinguished U. S. Senators writhe with pain and anguish, first Senator Vandenberg of Michigan whose defeat he predicted be cause of his endorsement of another League of Nations; and Senator Wheeler of Montana, whom he praised to the skies as one of the world's great Americans and patriots. The former, we have reason to believe IS very nervous about the political results of his participation in this peace gathering; while the latter being, whatever his political mistakes, a man of character and self respect, could view with nothing short of loath ing a pat on the back from such a specimen as Gerald K. . . M. Molotov has "went" and unmourned as far as the press-boys are concerned, (the U. S. delegation also as far as that goes). He must have ability and brains, but he certainly has not what the French call "savoir falre", nor has he anything that could possibly come under the heading of personality or charm. As far as good will Is concerned his successor, can't fail but be an improvement. But the plain fact Is, as we see It, the Russians don't care for good will. In fact we have a strong suspicion thev reenrrl what Is commonly termed "good will" capitalistic, a courgeolse bit or hocos pocus, closely associated with the profit-motive and Yankee super-salesmanship. The Rus sians are realists, materialists, are strong enough and self sufficient enough to do as they DAMN please whether the rest of the world likes It or doesn't. And they are Just a little bit happier If the "rest of the world" which is the capitalistic world DOESN'T like ill Whether that diagnosis Is correct or Isn't, this much Is CERTAIN: It Is the only explanation that makes the Russian behavior at this confcren?e at all understandable, as far as the undersigned Is con cerned.

Rogue River Chevrolet Ninth and Birtlctt about hypertension (high blood pressure) I mentioned recently six things one with hypertension should do, namely, have com plete health examination by the same physician at least once a year, retinoscopic examination by occullst or physician who uses opthalmoscope to look at thj retina, get sufficient daily exercise to provide a vicarious outlet for blowing off steam (emotional steam), drink plenty of water (at least two quarts daily), reduce if overweight, and finally, take life facetiously and I promise to explain this In t.ie next talk. There are two ways to take life seriously and not so sen ously. On the one hand a good many people take life too sen- ously, solemnly, earnestly. On the other hand, one may be face tious without being silly or with out unseemly jesting. How do you take life? Here is a fair indication, if you are grown up. Can you roll somer saults and come up smiling? Do you roll a few every day? If the answer Is no, then l can ten you that you take life too seriously for your own welfare. , Call this psychology If you like. I think it is Just good phy siology.

COSTLY TO YOUTH Playing policeman proved costly to Richard Ellis, 17, 502 Haven street, Saturday when he was fined $15 and his driver's license suspended for six months when he appeared in city court. Ellis, along with Terry Rose, 17, and Darrell Shirley, 17, were parked on Beatty street and as an auto would pass them they would pursuo the autoist with one of the boys making a sound like a police siren. As the mo torist would pull to the curb the youths would flash a spotlight in the driver's face and ask ques tions relative to their driving, using considerable profanity, ac cording to the police report. The youths frightened several motorists with their prank until one driver decided the youths didn't look like any policeman with whom he was familiar. The autoist gave chase but was eluded by the boys but noted the license number, which was turned over to city police, the report stated. The arrest fol lowed.
