BILIOUSNESS.

THE HONGKONG DAILY PRESS SATURDAY, JUNE 22ND, 1915.

There are many causes of this complaint, but they all spring from a disordered liver which does not properly fulfil its functions, especially in a warm climate, when it becomes sluggish in its action. The bile is turned from its proper channel, and enters the blood, and the person so affected is demoralised throughout his entire system.

"They Reach the Liver

The presence of biliary polson in the blood upsets the entire digestive system, and is the chief cause of sick headaches. It also causes dull pains and uneasiness in the right side and shoulder hlade, a bitter taste in the mouth, sudden dizziness on rising, apots floating before the eyes, furred tongue, bad breath, bowels loose one day and constipated the next. All or any of these symptoms may accompany the bilious condition, and while, so affected life is scarcely worth living,

DR. MORSE'S INDIAN ROOT PILLS relieve this trouble speedily. They open the clogged up system, purify the blood, and cleanse the stomach, causing the human mechanism to work smoothly and easily. On the first appearance of bilious. symptoms a dose of Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills should be talien, and much unnecessary suffering will be avoided. These pills are compounded to meet the general requirements of man, woman, and child, and the dose must therefore be regulated to suit each individual constitution, They are a safe and reliable remedy for old and young, weak and strong,⠀⠀

EARLIER CABLES.

THROUGH REUTEAʼA <AGENOY-] SHIPPING AND SHIPBUILDING COMMITTEE'S REPORT.

LONDON, June 20th.

A report has been published of the Committee appointed by the Board of Trade to consider the position of ship ping and shipbuilding industries after

the war.

EARLIER CABLES. THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS. VISCOUNT GREY BREAKS LONG

SILENCE

MSHAMU LONDON, June 19th. Viscount Grey of Fallodon has broken his prolonged silence in political affairs by publishing a pamphlet written on May 11th, explaining the concise terms of some of the essentials of a League of Nations

Viscount Grey begins by showing that the first condition of the League is that it must be adopted with earnestness, and that condition, bo maintains, is present After reviewing the situation created as regards the United States. It is or by the war, including the heavy financial will be as regarde all the Allies, while burdens to which the British shipping among our enemies Austria has publicly industry has been subjected in the inter- est of the conduct of the war, bur

shown a disposition to accept the pro dens from which Neutral competitors are posal, and probably welcomes it genuine. immune, the Report declares that they, though secretly, as a safeguard not demand for shipping after the war will probably be greater than if there, had only against old cnomies but against. been no war, while we shall be left with Prussian domination, Small States, belli- marins quite inadequate to gerent and neutral, must, he thinks,

meet our needs. It will be necessary to make the restoration of our mercantile marine a first charge on our national

resources:

The recommendations of the Committee, which are unanimous, include the follow control of shipping: vessels still require ingThe early removal of Government

for Government purposes should be char tered at market rates, and any advantage enjoyed by foreign shipowners regarding rates should cease at the termination of the war, not earlier; immediate steps should be taken to bring the Government rates paid to British shipowners to a level ensuring a reasonable return on the vessels built at the present prices.

The Report proceeds: -We consider no peace to be satisfactory which does not enforce the surrender of enemy shipping and infiet drastic and exemplary punish ment for the enemy's crimes at sea."

CABLES

The enemy countries should be re quired, as a condition of peace, to sur. render to the Allies all their merciunt shipping, whether in enemy or neutra, Ports, at the close of hostilitica; to forfeit all ships laid up since the outbreak of hostilities in the parts of countries that have become involved in the war or have brøken off diplomatic re- lations with them; to restore to the Allies all Allied shipping that may have come into their possession since the outbreak of hostilities, Shipping thus taken over from the enemy should be utilised as far as possible to assist demobilisation, and to release for trade a proportion of the Allied shipping absorbed in transport work. When the demobilisation is com pleted all unsold enemy vessels should be sold by auction in the various countries; the proceeds being treated as part of common war indemnity to be paid by the enpics. If such an arrangement is possible we think that a scheme of dig tribution which would secure the alloca tre enems tonnage among the Allies in some rough proportion to the losses sustained by the individual Allied coun- tries would offer many advantages, other

convinced that force does not pay, and that the aims and policy of her military rulers inflict intolerable suffering upon her. Fill Germany feets this to be true, a League of Nations in the sense intended by President Wilson will be impossible, for a League such as President Wilson desires must include Germany.

The second condition is that the Govern. ments and people of the States who are willing to found the League must under

stand clearly that it will impose a limitation upon the national action of each and may entail sone inconvenient obligations: The stronger nations must forego the right to make their interests prevail against the weaker States by force before a settlement by a conference of conciliation or arbitration has been tried. The obligation is that if any nation refuses to observe this limitation and rejects peaceful methods and resorts to force, then the other nations must use their combined economic or military and naval force against it. Anything loss than this will be valueless.

Viscount Grey tells the story of an African Chief who protested against paying taxes, saying that before the British camo he could get all he wanted by raiding his neighbour, and as for protection he was quite ready to protect his tribe from similar raids. After tais war, will the view of the great States, asks Viscount Grey, be that of the African Chief or of the individuals of what we call
