JAPS WILL CONFER WITHOUT CONDITION WASHINGTON, July 27. — The Japanese reply to President Harding's invitation to attend a conference on disarmament and Far Eastern policies was received today by the state department. Officials of the state department let it be known that they were confident the reply was entirely satisfactory and that Japan had agreed to sit as a member of the proposed conference without reservation. The Japanese embassy here was not advised as to the purport of the reply, but there also it was believed it is an acceptance without reservation. Final settlement of the Shantung and Yap controsersy between the United States and Japan may be effected before the forthcoming international disarmament conference takes place, it was intimated by high government officials here. The acquittal came after Mrs. Roberts and counsel, Atty. Dan V. Noland, of Los Angeles, appeared in City Recorder Heathman's court at Santa Ana, and asked permission for withdrawal of the plea of guilt and substitution of a plea of not guilty upon which she would undergo trial. This was done and Mrs. Roberts presented conclusive evidence of her innocence. Mrs. Roberts stated that she had had a date with her partner, Mrs. Iva Cox, of Los Angeles, at 7:10 p.m. at St. Ann's Inn, Santa Ana. Because her husband was late in getting home from his work, she was delayed until after 8 p.m. in leaving Balboa. She employed George Williamson, negro, to drive her to Santa Ana. On arriving at the hotel, she found Mrs. Cox had departed after waiting an hour, Mrs. Roberts then asked Williamson to drive her home. He protested that he would like to stop at his home for dinner first, so she consented to drive around to his residence. As she wanted to converse with Mrs. Williamson upon when she could again work in the Roberts band concert for Thursday. The Annheim Muni give the following city park on N.

Lack of Lip Stick Wrecks Homes, Claim CHICAGO, July 27.—A wife's failure to use a lip stick has wrecked many a happy home. The five thousand members of the American Cosmetician Society, in convention here this week, are converts to the doctrine that curbing the male instinct to wander is part of their job. "Men don't want to admit it, but they won't be good unless their wives make them," declared Mrs. M. F. Baird of Champaign, Ill., president of the society. "And when a man wanders, there's generally one answer. His wife has let herself become dowdy." "The man who declares he won't let his wife do things to make herself attractive is generally looking over his shoulder at some woman who is," the president continued. 2 DIE, 3 HURT, WHEN GASOLINE EXPLODES MARTINEZ, Cal., July 27.—Two men were killed and three injured at 9 a.m. today when a still at the Shell Oil Co.'s refinery here exploded. The dead are: William Nicholson, 40, workman, living at Martinez. Tarantino, aged 40, an Italian laborer. The names of the three injured had not been secured shortly after they were taken to the company's hospital for treatment. The explosion occurred in what is known as a "grumbell" still in which the crude oil is refined and the gasoline secured as the product. Great confusion followed the explosion. The cause of the accident could not be determined immediately. No fire followed the explosion thus preventing the far heavier property damage. INTERSTATE FAILS TO GET SHUTOFF Newport Field The Interstate Oil Co. failed to get a shut off on the water at Norris No. 1. The attempt was made at 2155. It is now the intention to go ahead, drill deeper, and try for a shut off later. Mesa No. 1 is still standing with the cement setting at 2556. A report was circulated a few days ago that the Long Beach Consolidated would abandon its Newport well after failing to get production depth of 2800. A more recent as has it that the work will be so soon as additional casing suiced.
