PEACE CONGRESS OPENS
INTERNATIONAL GATHERING IN
SESSION IN STOCKHOLM.
Court Of ArbitraI Justice, Limitation
Of Armaments and Other Topics
on Program for Discussion.

Stockholm, Sweden.-Owing to the
worldwide agitation for universal
peace, special significance is attached
congress which has just opened in
this city.
Not only delegates from the 500 or
more peace societies are present, but
there are representatives from trade
and labor associations, churches,
philanthropic societies, civic clubs,
educational and other institutions.
Prominent among American dele
gates are: DR.. Benjamin F. True
blood, secretary of the American
Peace society; DR.. Philip s. Moxon of
Springfield; Mrs. Fannie F. Andrews,
secretary of the American School
Peace league; Miss Anna B. Eckstein
of Boston; President Charles r. Van
Hise of the University of Wisconsin;
Mrs. Wilbur F. Crafts of Washington;
DR.. Emil G. Hirsch and Rev. and Mrs.
Eugene Bartlett of Chicago.
Among the important subjects be-
ing discussed are the following: The
probable establishment of the court
of arbital Justice; the possibility of
an international agreement for the
limitation of armament, which has
been foreshadowed in ex-President
Roosevelt's Nobel address; the grad
ual change of public opinion in Great
Britain in favor of the immunity
from capture of enemy's merchant
ships at sea in time of war, meas.
ure that If passed will do away with
the necessity of naval protection
from commerce and therefore greatly
reduce ornaments; the removal from
the category of war of questions OF
national honor.

WESTINGHOUSE IS OUSTEO
Former Head of Large Electric and
Manufacturing Company Is Sue
ceeded by Boston Man.

New York City.-George Westing-
house was ousted as president of
the Westinghouse Electric & Manu-
featuring Co., at directors meeting
held here. Edwin F. Atkins of e. At
kins & Co., Boston, was elected pres
ident with the understanding that he
is to hold Office only until perma-
nent president is selected. The re-
tirement of Westinghouse marks the
elimination of the control of Kuhn,
Loeb & Co. interests, who have been
in the ascendant in the Westinghouse
concern since its reorganization in
1908. Westinghouse was the last of
the old officials to hold on, the Kuhn
Loeb interests taking charge when
the big banking house undertook to
put the company on its feet after its
disastrous experience during the 1907
panic.
