"Vmally to the ingie ietkn ot
disarmament.
One by one ttie knottiest pluc of
the I'acid'e problem are being elimi
nated from the lit , of . ubjei:tt
ilieduled to bo before tlie ronftr-
rnce. If the procet of elimination
keens on. the object ol the conter
ence will toon have returned to the
original concent of i hnon pure lira
hation of armament conference, a
urged in the senate and house tevcral
inontln ago. ...
Tokia dispatchen today report that
Japan i not disposed to' allow the
Shantung controversy to .come be
fore the conference. At thc same
time the United State is not putting
iticlf forward at a mediaftr in the
controversy between Japan and
China over Shantung, it va authori
tatively atatcd.
Immigration Issue Out.
Die immigration issue, which hat
been the cause of so much Hction
between the United States and Japan,
particularly in California, was
omitted 'front the agenda submitted
by the United States to the other
powers invited to the conference. The
United States has always taken the
position that immigration is a do
mestic question and could not logi
cally become a matter of discussion
by an international body. Japan up
to this time, has signified no isat
proval of the exclusion of the im
migration question.
The Yap question, which has been
the chfef. bone of contention between
the United States and Japan for
the past week, is well on the way
to solution, it was stated today upon
the highest authority. The State de
partment has strong hopes that the
Yap dispute will be settled complete
ly before the conference begins.
It may develop that Japan may
be uiftvilling to submit the Siberian
question to the conference.
' Confined to Armament:, ,
With these four important con
troversies excluded from discussion
the conference will be practically
free, to proceed to the consideration
of the, foremost object of the inter
national gathering, namely, the lim
itation of - armament.
Advocates of armament limitation
in congress are greatly encouraged
by thh turn of events. They want
ed the conference confined to a dis
cussion of armament limitation and
they made no attempt to conceal
their misgivings when various tan
gles growing out of the' Pacific differences-were
brought forward for
prior consideration. They were fear
ful that the conference would soon
become involved in hopeless com
plications if an effort were made to
settle all he points of difference in
the far cast as a preliminary step
to armament limitation.

By Brother Minister

riage of the Rev. Dr. Percy' Stick'
ncy Grant, rector of the, Church rof
the Ascension, ' to Mrs. Rita De
Acosta Lydig, former wife of Mai.
Philip M. Lydig, cannot be per
formed by any clergyman of the
Protestant Episcopal church, under
a ruling by Bishop William T.
Manning. This was learned from
a most reliable source today. .
The adverse judgment of Bishop
Manning was based on that canon
of the Protestant Episcopal church
which forbics its clergy to perform
the marriage ceremony for. a -.-divorced
person except under the most
rigid conditions, which seem to be
inapplicable ir. this instance. - -,
Mr. Lydig obtained decree ot
divorce from Major Lydig, her sec
ond husband, in 1918, in, Paris. Her
action was based on incompatibility
which t-ndT- the French laws, con
stitutes sufficient ground for a . di
vorce. ;- On other grounds she di
vorced her first husband. W. E. D.
Stokes.

"If he is found guilty lie ' judge

lie had read of the-party in the
actor's quarters at' the St. ; Francis
hotel 'which ended in the death of
Virainia Ranpe. and Upon his knowl-
edge of abnormal psychology as he
has found it among obese persons.
He declared his belief .that Ar
bucklc's fat might' have been harm
less excepting when combined, with
alcohol. The two, according to his
theory, set up a tow-and-fire -combination
from which , destruction -is
inevitable. - . . r ' ;.
M. Tridon went on: ,
"If Arbuckle is found guiltyi his
fat is an extenuating circumstance.
'Furthermore he is especially
redestined to be the victim of alcohol
ccause he is too fat.
"The cause lies in the thyroid
gland. If that is strong, it stops fat
from invading the body. If it is
weak it causes the entire body to
puff up. That is the physical evi
dence of a weak thyroid."

Keeping the Difference in Your Pocket
"Keeping the difference in your pocket" has become an estab
lished fact to tire users in Omaha and, other-cities in . the United
States since the A. J". Stephens Rubber Company, through its chain
ot retail tire stores, eliminated all middlemen and commenced sell
ing its automobile tires, tubes, tire accessories and fabric products
from its factory DIRECT TO USERS with ONLY. ONE SMALL
PROFIT, added to factory, cost. of . manufacturing. '
"Buy Stephens factory-to-user tires, tubes and accessories and
keep the difference in your pocket" has become the slogan of tire
users from Alabama to California, and they have profited to the
extent of many, many thousands of dollars. They have learned
that quality is not to be always gauged by price and . that STE
PHENS, tires and tubes give them a full measure of mileage serv
ice at the least possible cost. STEPHENS FACTORY - TO - USER
products mean many miles tor a tew dollars and the saving remains
in the pocket of the user, instead of going to pay extra profits
and commissions to middlemen. y
Lost motion is. always expensive, and in tire sales the expense
of lost motion, as embodied in frequent handling by ; middlemen,
always comes, out of the pockets of the users. All lost motion has
been -eliminated from the -STEPHENS FACTORY-TO-USER ; retailing-
svstem. and when the buyer comes to Stephens Tire Stores
Company for tires and tubes, he KEEPS THE DIFFERENCE . IN;
HIS POCKET. ; , : ... . j
