SCALP

ERUPTIONS quickly heal

DANDRUFF disappears

To eradicate chronic Eczema, Ringworm, Dandruff and disfigur- ing, hair-destroying eruptions of the scalp there is nothing to equal Cuticura for quick, complete healing. The soothing action of Cuticura instantly relieves irrita-

tion and itching, its antiseptic and healing powers destroy infection and clear the disease from the scalp. Cuticurastimulates the languishing hair roots, gives life and lustrous beauty to the hair and promotes luxuriant growth.

FOLLOW THESE DIRECTIONS:

Every day, geatly massage Cuticura Ointment into the scalp with the fingertips. After an hour or sa thoroughly shampoo the head with Cuticura Soap and rinse well to remove the soap. This daily treat- ment relieves itching and allays. inflammation at once. The soothing, healing, antiseptic Cuticura pene-

trates to the depths of the eruption. It destroy's the lurking germs which keep the disease active, and steadily estabes a healthy condition of the scalp.

A matchless treatment for strength- ening and restoring weak, lifeless hair, for preventing falling hair and premature baisiness,

PACIFIC POLICY

The failure to reach an agree- ment between Japan and the other naval powers foreshadows a state of nolreaty naval relations in the Pacific. It makes it increasingly imperative that the American peo- pie should decide more clearly

what aims their country desires to pursue in that part of the world. It is obvious that the naval and air armaments fully adequate to insure the defense of the United States and its outlying possessions such as Alaska and Hawalf would fall considerably short of the ston- dards necessary to support an ag- gressive policy in Asia. It is not too soon for Americans to begin to reflect whether they wish Ameri- can naval power to be cast into the balance la the event of a new "Sino-Japanese conflict or in de- fense of American trade interests in the Far East.

While the full realization of positive peace policies may lie in the future. American public opin, lon should at least be able to in- sure that there shall be no war policies. Foolishly provocative speeches and alarmist unfounded accusations against Japan by pub- lic men should be condemned and discouraged. Naval and 418- ment policies in the Pacific should be shaped with a view to defense and maintenance of the status quo, not of potential strategic 28 gression and competition. The enormous technical dificulties, huge cost and probable ultimate political and economic futility of trying to fight a war on the other side of the Facific should be fully weighed..
