Return of Peace May
Also Be Calamity

London, Dec. 3O.-That the
return of peace may prove even
more calamitous to industry
than was the outbreak OF war,
was suggested by Prof, Sidney
Webb in a lecture on "The
Terms Of Peace at the opening
Of the London School of Eco
monies.
We have survived the out
break Of war;" he said, with
amazingly little economic dis
tress, The questio n is now
whether, at the coming of peace,
we shall be able to take the
steps necessary to prevent the
terms Of peace working out in
misery and distress in hundreds
OF thousands OF households. If
we are to do so, the first of the
terms Of peace, from the econo-
mic point Of view, must be: No
disbandment of the army. If
men have jobs to go to, or are
wiling to take the risks, let
them 60; but there must be no
body turned out until they are
likely to be absorbed in indus
try.p
As to terms Of peace, Prof.
We b b counselled moderation.
"ngland would do well," he
49, n
u not to look for any in
demnity, for indemnities have a
habit Of doing those who exact
them no good at all. Belgium,
Of course, must be rehabilitated.
We should hope to make a
peace which would leave the foe
without undue enlightenment or
humiliation. Humiliation is a
most expensive luxury for a
victor to impose upon a van
quished enemy. 1t does not
pay to have an embittered enc
my in the world"

Il believe, and persons who
have been in Germany say" re-
piled Vollmer that the Germans
look with grave displeasure on
shipments of arms to the allies. !"
Representative Bartholdt told
the committee that by dollar
neutrality" the United States
was alternating the friendship of
Germany and Austria.
"The alliance of Great Britain
with Japan is not a good omen
for our future in the Pacific. We
are now selling our neutrality for
British gold," he said.
1T is your contention that
while technically neutral, we are
really one of the allies, supplying
the bullets for the others?" asked
Representative Cooper.
II believe we are particeps
criminis' said Representative
Bartholdt, lin the manning and
killing of men, the making of
widows and orphans and the pro-
longation Of the war.
Representative Bartholdt de-
clared shipments of war muni-
tions since the war began aggre-
gated $3.50, 600, 600.
II am convinced" he said in
conclusion, that this cutting of
the expectation of the war sup
plies we can bring the war to a
close very soon. And the cutting
off of just one month of war
would mean more to US than all
the profits that the manufactur-
ers of the war supplies could
make"

STATE CRUSHER
 SHOULD BE CONTINUED
Attitude of State Democratic Convention and Counties De-
 string Rock For Roads.


 Little Rock, June 8.-State Highway Commissioner Dye is greatly elated over the incorpor- ation in the Democratic state platform of declaration to the effect that We favor the opera tion of rock crushers by the state highway commission, at which crushers such state convicts as are not needed on the state farm may be used"
 Friday afternoon three inter- ventions were filed in Pulaski cir cult court in the case of the State ys. State Highway Com mission, suit brought by inter ested parties in the name of the state to enjoin the operation of the crusher. These interven- tions are by the Directors of Road Improvement District No. l 2 in Lincoln county, A. J. Walls, county judge of Lonoke county, and Chas. B. Coe, county judge of Jackson county. Half 3 dog en others will follow of 8 similar character.
 1 These interventions ask that the work of crushing rock for the use of road builders in the state, commenced several months ago by the State High way Commission, be continued. The following allegations are made:
 That on account of the pre- vailing high price of rock prior to the creation of the State Highway Commission and the operation of a rock crusher for the purpose of furnishing crush ed stone for road purposes, it was impossible to buy said rock and carry on said Improvements at the excessive price placed thereon by rock crushers doing business in the state of Arkan- sas.
 "Intervenor further states that prior to the establishment of the rock crusher and it's oper- ation by the State Highway Com mission county and the various road districts there in were compelled to pay to the rock crushers then in operation their fixed price ranging from $1.O0 to SIPS per cubic yard for all rock purchased for the con- struction and maintenance ot public highways in said county and for the construction and maintenance of bridges and cul. verts in said county; that by reason of such excessive prices said county and road districts were unable to construct perma. nent rock roads only to limited extent as said prices rendered road building and bridge build, ing almost prohibitive.

1925 TOWNS TO USE
MACHINES IN VOTING

Voting machines viii be used moro ex-
tensvely In the coming election than eyer
before In New York state The CITY of
ionkers and about fifteen townships have
adopted the voting machines this wear
making a total OF 1875 cities and towns
using 1853 machines As n machine can
accommodate At least 500 voters in n day
whereas an election district never com
prises more than 400, usually $50, II Is
evident that the total number OF mnnhines
now in use representing the equivalent "
1000 20 l,400 election districts
There will be about 200 more voting
machines in use In the State in the NEXT
election than there we're last fall. Yonkers
has bought ffty voting machines. and
her saving from the use OF the machines
this year alone will be about $4,000, or
practically onc-third OF the cost of the
new voting equipment. ~ other words,
the officials OF Yonkers found that they
would have had to Increase their election
districts from thlrty-three 90 sixty-four 10
accommodate the voters this year, but
by using the voting machines they would
need only about forty-three machines.
Samuel C. Hamilton OF the Automatic
registering Machine Corporation, supply
ing the voting machines throughout the
state, provided interesting statistics yes
terday about the use OF automatic ms
chimes IN the state. He EXPLAINED that
Buffalo has 179 machines, Elmira %
Troy 80, Schenectady ~. Rochester ls3
Syracuse 50 and Utica 40 Albany and
Binghamton are the large cities outside
OF New York which do not nave the vot-
Ing machines.
The new voting system is likely to
prove tremendous argument in favor
OF automatic voting machines" said Mr.
Hamilton. owing to the necessity OF
making so many marks on every paper
ballot II is extremely probable that more
votes will be thrown out as defective
Furthermore. the time required for count
ing the paper ballots will be much longer
under the new system But with the
automatic machine no voter can make
mistake and his vote IL fully counted.
In addition the result of the election in
the election district Is known within fifteen
minutes after the voting booth is closed"

HILL AND CARNEGIE
ATTACKED BY WOODS
Republican Chairman Says They
Helped Defeat Free
Tolls.
ENHANCING DEMOCRATS

WASHINGTON. Oct IA eavar~ alta RI,
upon James J. Hill and Andrew Carnegie
was made in n bulletin issued tonight by
the authority OF Representative Frank n.
Woods OF iowa, chairman OF the Republl-
can Congressional committee. Mr.. Woods
charges that Mr.. Carnegie and Mr.. I'M
arc financing tho National Democratic
Congressional campaign. and says they
gave their support 30 ,he bill advocated
by President Wilson repealing tho free
ton provision of tho Panama Canal act.
Speaking OF the supposed interest OF
Mr.. Hin AMI Mr.. Carnegie in the free
tolls bill. the bulletin says:
with Mr.. Carnegie II was matter Of
helping Great Britain. within whose
domain no spends half OF each ycar. but
with Mr.. Hi It was simply n matter NJ
dollars md cents Mr. Hll. as Is we'll
known. owns or controls every trans
continental railroad, except one m the
northern United States, from the Twin
Cities west.
Great fortunes had been built for Mr..
Hin and hts friends out Of these railroads
because they had been able 70 name their
own rates for hauling freight. The rates
which these roads charged while Mr.. Hill
and his friends were amassing thelg
millions were so extraordinary as to he a
matter OF investigation In the Interstate
Commerce Commission for more than
twenty years.
The bulletin goes on TO say that tho
Interstate Commerce Commission re-
pcatedly reduced rates on the nm roads.
with Tho result that the passage Of the
free tolls bill was like putting cayenne
pepper IN his candy" The bulletin CON
tinues:
"All Of the Hn influence was Joined
with that of the Canadian Pacific Rail-
road TO kin off free tolls. which threat
ened to produce strong water competition
M coast terminals and force the lowering
of Pacific coast rates 10 n reasonable
basis
80 n was that a common cause was
made between President Wilson and these
two foremost representatives OF the prcda-
tory interests. and indeed the combination
Of big money Oh the one hand and barrels
OF political patronage on the other were
100 strong for those who contended that
tho canal should be operated in rhe In
tercst OF the American Government which
built Il and the people who paid for 10.
Democrats In Congress. who by the score
were at heart for FREQ tolls, fearing the
loss OF postmasters and other Fat political
jobs, stood nv the President until free
tolls went down 20 defent amid tho un-
suppressed eNultation OF the Hills and
Carnegies"
The charge is made further in the
bulletin THAI Mr. Hlll was !mpeled 20
turn against the Republican partY for the
reason that his roads traversed strongly
Republican States, States which. though
comparatively new 20 the Union have
been pioneers in progressive legislation"
