UNIVERSAL PEACE is THEME
OF THANKSGIVING SERVICES
Visiting Western Governors Are
Chief Speakers in the
Various Meetings.

Universal peace was the keynote
of the union Thanksgiving services
I'm the Detroit opera house and sew
eral Detroit churches, Thursday
noon. which took on added interest
because of the presence OF the west
ern governors. Several of the Wis
iting officials took peace for their
theme, and Gov. James ii. Hawley,
OF Idaho, speaking in the Woodward
ave Baptist church, declared that
within one year, universal peace
will be mot dream but reality"
Gov. A. o. Eberhart, OF Minnesota,
and Gov. John III. Burke, OF North
Dakota, spoke on peace in the opera
house and Gov. Osborn, in intro
ducing them, also made some refer
ences to the subject, the point of his
remarks being: Work for peace.
but fight when necessary for the
right.
Just before the benediction, the
Rev. Lee S. McCollester, of tho
Church of Our Father, presented two
resolutions, which were unanimously
adopted, urging the senate TO pass the
prOpOSeu lnleTudllOHdl dTDlLIdtlou
treaty providing for joint high com
mission OF FIVE. and extending greet
ings to the Lake Mohonk conference
on international arbitration
Gov Burke drew his inspiration
from the Biblical quotation, He who
lives by the sword shall perish by the
sword" and he declared that the man
who always gets itno trouble is the
man who carries a gun. He expressed
the belief that the statesmen in Wash
ington are big enough to lay aside
technicalities and adopt the peace
measure which is so near consumma-
tion.
Gov Eberhart was accorded rous-
ing reception. He expressed pleasure
over the fact that the collection that
had been taken up was for the benefit
of needy girls.
Gov Oswald West of Oregon, gave

PEKIN, Dec. Premier Yuan Shi

will accept the armlstice, but there
is general feeling that he will con-
sent. III he does the rebel and Inn
perial leaders will meet at Shanghai
to consider the settlement outlined
by Yuan Shi Kai
There are persistent reports that
the premier has his eye on the regen-

of Yuan have asked the foreign iega-
