This latter declaration will have the effect of a pronouncement by the nations of this hemisphere that an act tending to affect the peace of any of them will affect all, and set in motion consultations provided for in the collective security conven- tion. The word ‘‘convention’’ as it has been used in reporting the ac- tivities of the conference assumes the meaning given it in internation- al law—that of a treaty or agree- ment establishing practices group of se veral Sigr under specific conditions, war Pact Unanimously Adopted. It was the first time in history that the American nz: agreed on a treaty which wou war or combat threat by linking the nations of this hemis- phere in a joint neutrality program. It was adopted unani a fact which is indeed indicative of the har- mony prevalent throughout the en- tire conference. In addition to four stones, the conference produced at least two other suggested features which are destined to play an im- portant part in the determined ef- fort to maintain peace. These two things are an inter-Americar propaganda program of heroic pro- portions via the radio and moving pictures, and a general movement to afford women full rights of citi- zenship in the nations which sent delegations, Other resolutions with standardi and exc in education and art with to strengthening through and intellectual channels bind the Ameri an nations ne utral yatory the - TILT mousiy, the corner- dealt mainly reat Zauon shi t states i no n.

Fas tial mov Reservations Limit Effectiveness. A reservation insisted upon by Ar- gentina makes the effectiveness of any embargoes which might be de- tend and assure the fulfillment of existing treaties between the Amer- ican states.” United States Satisfied. The American republics agree that, in case of hostilities or the threat of hostilities ‘‘between two or more of them, they shall, through consultation, immediately endeavor to adopt in their character as neu- trals a common and solidary atti- tude in order to discourage and pre- vent the spread or prolongation of hostilities.” Most of the difficulty in getting the convention through committee was caused by the problem of mak- ing it fit Latin-American countries which were already members of the League of Nations. The wrinkles, clared under the conventions doubt- ful. This reservation makes two conditions: first, that in no case shall foodstuffs and raw materials des- tined for the civilian populations of belligerent countries be considered as war contraband; and, second, that in the event of an arms em- bargo, each nation may reserve its attitude in case of a war of ag- gression. Minor reservations were also insisted upon by Paraguay, El Salvador and Colombia. Other resolutions bearing upon the event of war which were passed by the conference in plenary, or complete, session included: Chile's recommendation that na- tions arrange bilateral arms limita- tion agreements, sort of Pan-American radio fo furth er the cause of pea eo program would pr American appreciation ature and the tourist at the co-operating nations. _Here may possibly be seen the fluence of the success of President It was utiets be the de chats.’ most pow rful broadc the celebrated, i its or reports would be alloy In nations where the government's influence over radio broadcasting is not too greatly curbed bw law, it is suggested that programs which might stir up enmity between na- tions or might disturb peaceful re- lations be banned. Another resolution involved agree- ment of the nations to teach in all grades of all schools the principles of the renunciation of war and the settlement of international disputes by arbitration. Arrangements were also made for the annual in- terchange of students and profes- sors, and for interchange of books and publications through national or official libraries. The growing importance of mov- ing pictures as media of peace prop- aganda was likewise recognized. Governments were advised to clamp down on the showing of films which glorified “wars of aggres. sion” or which represented inci. dents likely to excite the animosity of other nations. By the same token it was suggested that educational films promoting the friendly inter. est of one country in another, espe- cially by stimulating tourist trade, be allowed freedom of taxes or duties. See Victory for Women. The tremendous effect of women’s work on behalf of peace was mate- rially acknowledged by a resolution recognizing their efficacy in society and the effect they will have upon the morale of future generations. The resolution said that the time had arrived to enhance their work by granting women of all the Amer- ican countries citizenship. Miss Doris Stevens, principal champion of the women's cause, who had con- ducted much of her campaign from a sickbed, saw in this resolution a complete victory; she interprets it to be an official recommendation that women be given the voting franchise in all the American coun- tries, as they have been in the United States. The tremendous ovations accord. ed President Roosevelt wherever he visited in South America were evidence of the belief that his “good neighbor” policy had made the thing possible. Tulio M. Cestero, the Dominican delegate, was round- ly applauded when he told the con- ference he hoped the policy “would be a permanent policy of all future United States administrations.” It Is to Gain More of Them however, don't advertise publicly your diet program, Coffee Jelly. 2 tablespoons granulated gelatin % cup cold water 3% cups hot strong coffee % cup sugar “The slim, the irritable, the| Soak gelatin in cold water, add hungry woman takes on the pro- | fresh hot coffee and the sugar, portion of one of our minor men- | Stir until disspolved and pour inte aces,” says Fannie Hurst in her | molds to set. amusing little book, “No Food | Mineral Oil Mayonnaise.
