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

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

declared favorable action regarding his League would have been

"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

about hypertension (high blood

six things one with hypertension

of water (at least two quarts

finally, take life facetiously
and I promise to explain this In

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

you roll a few every day? If the
answer Is no, then l can ten you
that you take life too seriously

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
