it has set in place for the banish-

isphere—a convention of collective
security; a protocol banning in-

would bond together all of the Amer-
ican republics in common defense
against a country guilty of inter-
vention; a convention
common and joint neutral attitude
on the part of all the American
countries in the event of hostilities
between any two of them, and a
declaration of solidarity.
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

It was the first time in history
that the American nz:

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

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,

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.”

Two Quick-Acting, Quick-Dissolving
Bayer Aspirin Tablets with a Glass of Water
The modern way to
ease a cold is this: Two
Bayer Aspirin tablets
the moment you feel a
cold coming on. Then
repeat, if necessary, according to
instructions in the box,
At the same time, if you have a
sore throat, crush and dissolve
three BAYER tablets in one-third
glass of water. And gargle with this
mixture twice.
The Bayer Aspirin you take in-
ternally will act to combat fever
and the pains which usually ac.
company colds. The gargle will act
as a medicinal gargle to provide al-
most instant relief from rawness
and pain. It is really marvelous; for
it acts like a local anesthetic on the
irritated membrane of your throat.
—
Try this way. Your doctor, we
know, will endorse it. For it is a
quick, effective means of combating
a cold. Ask for Bayer Aspirin by the
full name at your druggist’s — not
for “aspirin” alone.
