WASHINGTON Sept. 11-While
,tbere has been much talk Of the ad.
ninistration's peace plans and the
President has been given the Nobel
peace prize, the Administration pro-
grsmme for the next session Of the
Congress seems 70 indicate anything
but an abandonment Of military actiy-
lty by the present government.
1t has become known that the Presi.
dent has decided to ask the Congress
10 authorize two new battle ships at
Its next session. This will be in spite
o. the implied pledge Of last session
that there would be but one battle
ship asked for at.each session Of the
Congress through the balance Of the
administration. The request will be
defended on the grounds which will
only be discussed in executive session
q the Senate and of the naval com.
Imittees Of the two houses. There will
undoubtedly be strong opposition to
the course.
AS a .further Indication Of the mill
tary plans of the administration, the
Congress will be urged to authorize
800 additional officers for the army.
Again, 1t is planned to ask the Con.
gress for an increase in the pay Of all
officers and men. ranging from 5 per
cent. for lieutenant general to S5 per
cent. for the enlisted men.
Again, the Congress will be asked
to make an appropriation for the build
ing of another dry dock on the Pacific
Coast. Mr.. Metcalf, the secretary d
the navy, since his return, has given
an inkling Of the intent in this con
nection within the past forty.eight
hours. 1t is now known that he wen

The first contribution towards the No

by Secretary straus, of the Depart

tee, from. Eugene G, Kramer, a law
yer Of New York City. Mr.. Kramer ex.
pressed desire to contribute from
time 10 time toward the fund until the
principal of the foundation, which Is
nearly $4,000, shall have reached d
more adequate sum, and also to aid Ia
any way he could the industrial peace
commission. In acknowledgement Sec
rotary Straus expressed the hope "that
the fund, which is at present a little
short of $4,000, will be largely IN
creased by contributions such as yours
from generous and patriotic citizens
who appreciate the Importance Of The
purpose of this foundation in the pro.

Two ANARCHISTS
THEIR UNCONSCIOUS TRIBUTES
TO THE POWER OF THE
LAW.

j
Two tributes were paid to this coun.
try at the congress of anarchists al
Amsterdam, though one of them seems
not to have been SO designed. Emma
Goldman, an American, said that the
statutes of the United States were Sc
strict and severe as to make an anar
chist propaganda practically impossl
bic. She criticised her country and
its laws with much bitterness: But
we think that most Of our people will
be glad to know that our laws are 50
effective. A Russian delegate, on the
other hand, contented himself with
criticlslng the anarchists and the work.
ingmen of America, says the 1ndianap.
oils News. For the country itself he
seems to have considerable respect.
He says:
"Laborers OF European countries all
want a revolution, but in the United
States they do not want an uprising,
because they live in a free country
We are not sure whether this man
thinks there should be revolution
here anyhow, and whether he crlticlses
the worldngmen for not wanting one.
Probably this would be an unfair inter.
probation Of his words. He no doubt
meant that there was no work for an.
archists in the United States, and
that they ought to be content with
conditions. And we cannot think that
he intended to attack our working
men for refusing TO demand revou.
tion, for he himself said that this is a
free country" To rebel against free.
dom would, indeed, be foolish. The
Russian apparently did not agree with
Emma Goldman in thinking that laws
against Anarchy in the United States
were inconsistent with freedom.
We cannot see that there is any.
thing contradictory in these two state.
ments, This is free country, and
we do have more or less effective
laws against anarchy, But these lat
ter are part and parcel Of our free.
dom, There can be no freedom where
there Is no law, and no law where there
is no government. Liberty thus has
no more deadly enemy than anarchy.
1t Is interesting to have from a con-
gress Of anarchists the two,fold trI-
butte to tie United States, to have It
admitted that 1t Is both country Of
law and q country Of liberty.

sessions of the court were consumed
