Many other women are

HOT BLOODS OF SWEDEN CLAMOR
FOR WAR AGAINST THE NORWEG|ANS

Sweden did not wish 10 force Norway
unwllingly into the union. Such ac-
tion would mean a succession of re-
belllons which Sweden would have to
suppress. 1t would be useless, he said,
10 submit the question to the Norwe-
gian, people, who more than ever were
determined to break away from the
union If Sweden had at first laid
down condit ons and Norway refused
to accept them there would have been
no recourse for Sweden but war.
The minister defended the action Of
the government and said it would nave
been feeble indeed if they yielded to
the popular clamor for war in some
quarters.
A Hot Headed Professor.
Professor Saefve in the senate said
the royal proposition was greatly dis
appointing. "On June T. he said,
"The Norwegian frontier ought to
have been blockaded and the army
and navy modified The Riksdag
should not allow little Norway to die
ate. We desire peace, but not at
any price. Negotiations should be ac
companied by military preparations
thus showing Norway and the world
that Sweden is in earnest" Loud
| cheers greeted these remarks.
Other Speakers.
Herren Benedicks and Lars Berg
spoke along similar lines. Professor
Trigger, said Sweden's political union
was bankrupt because even now peo
pie feared to characterize actions by

should not propose such q bill. Swed-
en- would be better off alone, but Nor
way ought to ask Sweden's assent, ac,
