Pr?-*idenl (jKilidgc if American Executive Should Decide Time In Kipe to Step In B> DAVID IiAWIim'K ICwiW. Ifll B# T?* of?i Washington, Oct. 17.?The next stop in the evolution of | world peace now i? a disarmament conference?or rather, to | he technically correct?a conference to reduce and limit the j size of standing armies and further limit the use of naval nuu c*ii ncrtjruna. President Coolidge stands ready to call such a confer ence if the idea is approved by other powers. The League of Nations has prepared to call a conference, but there is little doubt that Europe would defer to the wishes of Mr.; Coolidtfe if he cared to con voke the parley sooner than the one scheduled by the League of Nations. The 1'renldent has Indicated Ills desire (or reduction of armament In several speeches but has always conditioned Ills promise on the making of a security pact between European nations which would make it possible for public opin ion everywhere to approve reduc tion In military expense with an assurance of safety. France has argued for a large army on two grounds: Germany's Inclination to avoid payment of reparations and the possibility of a German invasion when once Franco had disarmed. Now the Dawes plan has been set in operation answering the first objection and the Locarno conference at which France and Germany have agreed on the neu trality of the Rhino zone and ar bitration Is an answer to the sec ond objection. Most compelling of all reasons, however, Is the economic situation In France where M. Calllaux, fin ance minister, is in the midst of a crisis calling either for a levy of capital on the wealthy or Inten sive taxation of rich as well as poor. If he could foresee material reduction of military expenditures he would begin to see the way open to a solution of France fiscal troubles--and Incidentally the be ginning of payments to the United States on the war debt. America has had a material an well as moral Interest in disarm ament conferences. The confer ence called by the late President Harding not only made It possible to reduce naval expense In Great ftritaln, Japan and the United States, ending the purposeless competition, but It removed war clouds by developing a better In ternational atmosphere. If the feeling as a result of a conference on the limitation of land arma ment should be that an era of peace was forthcoming. Investors In America would feel more like lending their money to Kurope's productive enterprises and the whole face of things would be changed. The disposition of Eur ope to settle Its own affairs Is pointed to as a vindication of two policies--both the Republican and the Democratic. The Republicans aro pleased be cause they say Europe has been admonished under the Hardin? and Coolldge administrations to settle European problems first and that then American moral and ma terial aid would then be forthcom ing. The advice was Iterated and reiterated In speeches and diplo matic notes and Europe has at last accepted It and acted upon It. The Democrats, on the other hand, see a vindication of the poli cies of Woodrow Wilson, who fathered the league of Nations, the machinery of which has played such a vital part In the readiness of France, Germany and Grest Britain to make arbitration and aecurlty pacts. The willingness of the former entente allies to sdmlt Germany to s seat of equality with the other powers Is regarded as n forward slep In making the 1/eaguc's power and Influence more effectlvo for the welfare of Europe.

By TM Altikwl Loraruo, Oct. 17.?Do a pi t? a boycott decided upon by practl-' cully all the Brltinh. French, Dutch . and Belgian press correspondents at the Locarno conference, by half the (Jerman press and by all the American correspondents ex cept thoae representing the new? agencies. Premier Mussolini today ? held a prera reception. To the small group of corres pondents awaiting his presence the Italian dictator read a state ment on the Italian foreign poll-, cy. Then ho waited a moment for questions, but as none were forthcoming. he marched out | ponpously with his civilian body-' ; guard. The refractory journalists still stood grouped in tho hotel I lobby. Mussolini, striding with meas ured tread, like the hero In a melodrama, stopped abruptly be . fore one Drltlsh correspondent and I said In French: ! greasing." I "I have no reply for you, Mr.1 ; Premier," replied the correspon dent. "Why?" "Because I am not a commun ist." "Didn't I meet you at Cannes?" ' Mussolini insisted. "No." "Then I am mistaken." Hereupon a Belgian journalist! spoke up from the rear of the ! group: "That happens often." Th dictator, ovlously Irrltat- ? i ed. hesitated a moment, then swung slowly around and emin { elated grandiloquently "perhaps." Thereup he paraded onward fol ! lowed by his bodyguard. The more than 200 Important 1 Kuropean journalists assembled here are resentful against Musso lini because of his treatment of Foreign correspondents in Italy. GIVE WALES REST SAYS THE BRITON From Collage to Palace Idro Seem* to Prevail Prince Done Well Hi HAL O'KI.AHKIITY j I?i?, R| Th? Isondon, Oct. 17.?"Give the i lad a rest. He has earned It." On every hsnd. sniong all | clssses. one hears this expression when the Prince of Wales' name Is j mentioned. Workmen romlng to town In underground towns todsy to view his drive through the streets agreed with smartly | ! dressed brokers that the prince ' has completed with great credit ; one of the most arduous snd suc cessful tours of his life and hss done his Job well. There are dissentient voices, It Is true. Only recently Dr. Shep herd of Ht. Martin's Church In Trafalgar Square, spoke with cut ting emphasis on the prince doing obvious, popular thlnas to get cheers from the multitude but such voices as these are only small voices In the wilderness. The people of Creat Britain have surrounded the prince with even greater popular fsvor than wss gained by his grsndfather. Among the Interested spectators j of the prince's arrlvsl will be Mrs. Woodrow Wilson, who entertained him in Washington during the Iste . President's Illness In the White ! House. Mrs. Wilson now Is on a visit tO l/ondon. The prince hss retained much of | his youthfulness. He loves trsvel ling snd told his Intimates aboard , the HepaUe that he would never i tire of tnfee extended tours. This enthusissm for foreign ex peditions may Interfere with plans long entertained by the royal fam ily for his msrrlsge.

COUNTY EXHIBIT j WINS ATTENTION HunHrpdti View I'asquo tunk'it Display at State Fair in Italeigh Though It failed to tako high J honor? at the State Fair this week, j Pasquotank County"? exhibit at- j traded much favorable comment, i and was productive of highly val- j uable advertising for the County, j Elizabeth City and the Albemarle aectlon generally, according to Secretary Job. of the Chamber of Commerce, who has Just returned from Raleigh. Pasquotank ranked eighth among the counties that exhibited at the fair. It was this County's first entry aa an exhibitor In the big State expoaitlon, and the show- ! ing made was highly creditable. Mr. Job stated, In view of the fact that neither he nor County Agent Falls knew exactly what was ex- I pected of them, or on what basis the awards were to be made. "We hope to come back atrong- i ly next year." Mr. Job stated, "and If we are not In on the prize , money, I'll be aurpriaed. We ranked as high in quality as any 1 of the other countlea, but on some of the other polnta we fell be hind, through ignorance of the te- , qulrements." Two Perqulmana County maids , took stellar honora In the poultry demonstration at the fair. Misses Elizabeth Wlnslow and EUle Rod gerson. In taking flrat prlac, they outclassed a number of other con teatants from various parts of the State, Mr. Job aald. They were under the direction of Mlaa Helen | (Jaither. Home Demonstration Ag ent in l'erquimana. Mr. Job has returned from the! State Fair committed strongly to; the idea of putting on a North-' eastern Carolina exhibit at next I year's fair. "I doubt whether a| premium will be offered for such a district exhibit?" he atated, "but 1 even though there isn't. It would be well worth the coat as a means of advertising this section." In the couple of days he spent at the fair, Mr. Job declared he met an astonishingly large num ber of people who had been reared in this part of the State, but had moved elsewhere. On the part of folka who were unfamiliar with this section, Mr. Job says he found a startling va riety of pronunciations for the name of the County. "I'll bet I heard Pasquotank pronounced at least a dozen different ways.'' he declared. "Lota of the people at the fair who stopped at our booth for a chat appeared to "be utter ly ignorant about thla part of the State. They referred to Pasquo tank as the 'Sound country,' and seemed amazed at the variety of crops we raise." MINK DIHAMTKR IX WIWT VIRGINIA TODAY (Irafton. W. Vm..

Today marks the opening of The Daily Advance subscription and prize campaign and it in now tlmp for (hoar who arc thinking of get ting into the rare for one of th* three automobilea or some of (h? other prizes offered to bring in. send in, or mail in (heir nomhift (iona. A glance at (he schedule of votea and other rules u pub lished yesterday will show clearly that there In nothing to gain by delay in entering the campaign. Already several have entered their names for a share of the more than $3,000 in priies and commissions that this paper offers ambitious folks who vote for themselves during the coming at z weeks. The prizes include a Hudson Super-Six Coach that sells deliv ered for 11.325. purchased from Stevens & Son Motor Car Com pany. a Ford Coupe at $580.70, and a Ford Touring Car at $400.10 are on the list as second and (bird prizes. Both of these machines are purchased from the Auto 4* (Jas Knglne Works, Inc., (he local Ford dealers. Fourth and flf(h prizes are s ti l(es of furniture. The fourth Is valued at $250 and is purchased from the Qulnn Furniture Com pany, while M. (i. Morrlsette 4k Company haa the o(her on display, a $175 suite. Winners of theee furniture prizes may have their choice of either a bed room, liv ing room or dining room suite. Cash prizes of $100 and $&0 complete the list of seven wonder ful awards. If you fall to earn one of the seven prizes mentioned The Dally Advanre will pay you * rash commission of 20 per cent for your efforts. Here's u fair and square propo sition that has no luck or lottery connected with It. It's Just n ques tion of who can aecure the most votes by clipping them free from the psper. and by having their friends save the free voting cou pons. and. best of all, by securing new and renewal subscriptions to The Advance. This will count the rundldate a certain number of votea as shown on the voting sche dule which apprars In the an nounrement published yesterday. A Hubsrriptiou received, wheth er old or new. for n subscriber liv ing in Elisabeth City will count Just half as many volcra as the "sme term subsrriptlon receded from a subsrrlber living outside the city. This novel feature should prove the Incentive for thoae to en ter who live In the country. % It will also pay the workers who ranvass outside the city a rich re turn In votes. No votes will be given on aub srrlptlons secured outside the counties of Camden, Currituck, Pasquotank. Perquimans, fiatee. Hertford, Chowan. Bertie. Martin, Tyrrell. Washington, Hyde and Da re. All you have to do to enter and be listed ss eligible for one of these fine prizes is to enter your name on the entry coupon that ap pears on another page and send It in to the Campaign Manager, The Dally Advance. We will send you by return mall a receipt book to be used In securing subscrip tions slid will assist In every way possible. An altogether unique feature of The Advance campaign la that long term subsrriptlons are offered at a reduced rate, which should make them easier to secure. At the same time, no differential In votes is allowed for the long term subscriptions, snd no prospective candidate need feel that he or ahe will be put under a big handicap In this csmpslgn by having to compete with some candidate able to secure s larger number of long term subscriptions. In moat cam paigns, one three-year subscrip tion Is good for several llmM a? many voles as (hree one-year aub scrlptions, and it Is possible for the candidate hrinalng in a large number of long term subscrip tions to win h prize over some oth er randldste who has actually turned In more money. Thla la not true in The Advance's cam paign, snd this feature should commend It to sll who hope to win by hard work rather than by In fluence or pull. It seems to the management of this newspaper. It makes no difference where you live, who you are or what you do you have an even chance to win this Hudson Coach by devot* Ing your spare time In the intereet of this newspaper. All who enter will be treated alike. An office for the conducting of the campaign has been eetabltahed over the Savings Hank 4k Trust Company, located at the corner of Main and Polndexter streets. Of fice hours for the present will he from 2 to 8 p. m. Telephone 071.
