In the days of the early
American pioneers broil,
ing was done almost en
tirely in this primitive
fashion*
Perfect Broiling
not the tedicfus process it used to be
WITH the New Perfection Broiler you can broil
a 3-lb. steak perfectly in 20 minutes. There is
no smoke or odor as in the case of broiling over coal
or gas—no burning fat. You don’t have to touch the
steak or turn it. The heated air circulates all round
and sears the steak (or fish, as the case may be) thor
oughly on the outside, thus retaining all the juices.
Every kind of cooking can be done easily and eco
nomically on a New Perfection, and it is a real all
the-year-round stove, too. ‘
Broiling, preserving, baking, roasting, boiling and
frying—a tender steak, delicious jams, crisp molasses
cookies, a savory roast of beef, stewed tomatoes, or
a quick fry of bacon and eggs. All done easily—no
trouble with drafts—no drudgery with coal, wood
and ashes.
Ask your dealer to show you how simple the New
Perfection is to operate.

(Continued from Page One)
limited number to handle Russian af
fairs, just as was done at Genoa, and
that the Russians would doubtless be
allowed more members in their panel
than any other single power would
have in the mixed panel.
Meanwhile a truce will operate and
all the nations arc to refrain from
making separate agreements with
Russia. Until the plan is developed
more fully and officially communicat
ed to tile Russians it is impossible
for them to say whether the terms
overcome their objections that the
conference is trying to deal with them
on an inequality basis.
The economic conference seemingly
will last only a few days longer. Sev
eral delegates declared tonight that
this week probably would bring it to
a close.
Four months will be the maximum
time of the truce suggested in connec
tion with Russian affairs. The pro
posed plan of the Hague meeting pro
vides that a decision must be rendered
within three months of June 20, and an
additional month will be allowed
within which the powers may reject
or ratify the decision. Consequently
October 20 will lie the extreme limit
of the truce.
.London, May 14—Reuter’s Genoa
correspondent says it is reported that
the Russians refuse to accept the pro
posed terms for the appointment of a
mixed commission and have notified
Signor Schanzer to this effect.
ALL WANT AMERICA
TO JOIN CONFERENCE
Genoa, May 14—",ie Socialist news
paper Lavora says:
“M. Barthou’s insistence that the
members of the mixed commission be
appointed by the various governments
is duo to this:
"If rppointed by the conference, the
United States cannot parti&pate in
the commission, because it is not rep
resented at Genoa, but if appointed by
the governments, then the United
States might participate.
“American patricipation is warmly
desired by France, and warmly unde
sired by England, because the oil bus
iness has contributed better than ten
Lafayette:* and one hundred statutes
of liberty to a Franco-American rap
prochment— (the Standard Oil and
Franco-American Standard Oil Com
panies against the Royal Dutch and
Shell Companies)."
Say No Peace Until
Poland Quits Vilna
Genoa, May 14—(By A. P.)—“What
jver solution may be reached concern*
ing tlic question of frontiers, re-es
tablishment of peace in Eastern Eu
rope will be impossible until Poland
evacuates ViLna territory, according to
the com-ention concluded between
Poland and Lithuania on October 7,
1920,” said a statement issued today
by the Lithuanian delegation to the
economic conference.
II. Toptcliibachef, head of the Azer
biapan delegation, which has not been
admitted to the conference, has issued
a protest against the "usurpation of
It is country by the Bolshevik! in an
attempt to grant oil and naptha con
cessions in Baku an' other territories
of the republic.”
European and Am(yican capitalists
are warned by 17. Toptcliibachef
against entering into cor tracts for
concessions, inasmuch as they would
bo null and void.
