The Foreign Secretary will re- main in Geneva from Friday until Sunday, it was announced. Eden. it was stated, will remain “for the duration."

At sea. Great Britain yielded not an inch to Italian suggestions for reduction oi the Mediterran- ean Fleet. In fact three‘ old-type destroyers were reported out from Portland and bound for the Med- iterranean and possibly the lted Sea. They‘ were the Torrid. the Thruster and the Rowena.

But there was an increasing be- lief Great Britain will not dimin- ish her present warship concen- tration in the Sues Canal vicin- lty until the whole Italo-Ethiopian conflict is cleared up and the It- alian troops are out of Africa.

One political writer suggested Haifa, instead of Malta, might be the future base around which British fleet strategy in the Med- iterranean will be laid. l-Ie pointed to plentiful oil fuel supplies at the Red Sea port and to the "un- tenzblllty" of, Malta in the event of serial or gas attack.

As. for the prospect of peace, in- formed persons said they feared the DNSFDE deadlock might not be broken for a "long time." The Government, these sources added. was “not impressed" by Mussolini‘: peace suggestions, advanced ilumrh Premier Laval of France.

IJONDON. Oct. 2B—(L.‘. P. Gable) -Government leaders took the of- fensive in the general election campaign tonight, while the In- dependent Labor Party Lnued a manifesto attacking both the Gov- ernment and the Labor Party oi which it was formerly a part.

In the first of his four major pfatform speeches Prime Minister Baldwin promised _ that Great Britain would not lead the world in s new armaments race. He Joined with former Prime Minister Ramsey MacDonald in advocating a foreign policy based entirely on

the Covenant of the League of Nations. Speaking at wuiverhampton,

the Prime Mlinister declared Great Britain would never attempt a blockade of Italy without the aid of other neutral countries.

"It would be the bitterest and cruelesl: irony of history," he said, "if the league of Nations, seeking to enforce respect for peace at a given point in the world. succeed- ed only in firing the world, un- leaching war from one pole to the other." -

The Prime Minister emphasized three points: ~

i. Co-operation with Europe.

(A.P. By Guardian's Special Wire) GENEVA, Oct. fill-Japan warned the League oi Nations today it will not tolerate trade discrimination against Japan in areas now held as mandate by other powers. Ncbuml Ito, Japanese delegate,

asserted Japan has equal rights in trading with regions formerly held by Germany and Turkey and now controlled under mandate by other nations.

The assertion, which was received in silence i-_ the League's mandate commission, ollow'd a contention at a previous meeting by the Bel- gian de‘egste that Japan's right to economic equality in those areas was forfeited when Japan quit the League in March. i935. -

In op ‘lg this argument. Mr. Ito said: "Japan hopes the League will not lnaeosa her difiiculties as a mandatory power, whether "this relates to economic equality or any other question particularly touch- ing her Pacific islands mandate."

(C.

All that remains is to fix the date and prepare the ma- terial on which the conference will work. Officials in Ottawa and in m8 cflilltals of theprovinces are busily at work to that end. Problems with which the confer. ence will be confronted fall natur- B-lly into two classes. w- ma) and financial. but in some instances the casses are inter-related.

On the constitutional side there is the general problem of revision of the British North America Act. This Act which forms the constitu- tion cf Canada. was drafted almost 70 years ago and the division of powers as between the Dominion and the provinces in it has been held n_ stumbling-block to the type of mt. ern social legislation to-whlch e-llllitrzirties in Parliament are com-

should be submitted w the Supreme Court of Canada for an opinion.

The provinces may be asked their views as to a reference to the courts. They _may attempt to come to an Blfreement to turn over some of their powers to the Dominion should it be found the measures are be- yond federal constitutional compet- ence. On the other hand they might discuss an agreement to enact uniform legislation in their legis- latures to lement federal stat- utes.

Measures in this class are the Employment and Social Insurance Act, the Eight-hour Day Act. lhe Minimum Wages Act, Day of Rest Act, and various provisions aimed at the regulation of business which were based on recommendations of the Price Spreads Commission.

The Farmers’ Creditors Arrange ment Act is in s slightly different category but has already been in- volved in a dispute between the fed- eral government and the British Columbia government. Its position may be reviewed. The Old Age Pensions Act is another which may be considered.

DEBT AND TAXATION

The twin problems of debt and taxation-i loom large in the financial class. Some method of putting a halt to the steady increase in public debt and the accompanying rise in taxes of the past few years will be sought. _

In the five-year period from i930 to i935 the net debt of the Domin- ion Government increased by $869,- 900,000 exclusive of increases in the government's obligations upon guar- snteed railway securities. The larg- est compilation of the total debts of all provinces, secured by both

To Much Smoking _May Cause Ulcers

(By Howard W. Blsksslce)

(Associated Press Science Editor) (A.P. By Guardian's Special Wire)

SAN BRANCISCO, Oct. 28 —— Smoking before breakfast is one of the quickest ways to risk ulcers of the stomach, the American Cullen of Surgeons was informed tonght in the findings of one oi’ the most extensive investigations ever made of this common affliction.

You get ulcers primarily because you have a weakness for them. There is no generally effective medicine to prevent or cure them, the report said. You have to make a lifelong change in your habits,

srticularly in your ways of eating,

rinking and smoking.

The ulcer study was made at Tu- lane University by Alton Ochsner. M.D.. professor and director of sur- gery. assisted by Mirs Gage. M. D., and Klyoshi Hosoi. M. D. Dr. Ochs- ner reported the results o1 five years investigation.

The ulcers occur on the “lesser curvature" of the stomach. the name for the roof of that portion of the stomach which is curved some- what like s fish hook.

The weakness for them consists in "tissue susceptibility," which seems to be vulnerability of this up- per fish-hcok area, and "constitu- tional predisposition." The latter appear; due h; certain arrangements of the networks 0f nerves and of small veins of the stomach. ~ Too much acidity, the ‘Iulane physicians reported. is almost cer- tainly one of the general causes of ulcers when it occurs in stomachs with these peculiarities. Care about eating and drinking habits. they held, is the only safe way to avoid this danger line of acidity. Takini‘ alkaline drinks. the rewrt sold. M! little effect.
