New York. - William Jennings
Bryan, addressing labor peace meet
ing at Carnegie hall Saturday night,
attacked former Presidents Roosevelt
and Taft as leading sponsors of organ
izations which stood for the use of
force in international affairs and
which. the former secretary of state
declared, were inimical TO the true in
terests OF this country and to the
cause of international peace. Mr..
Bryan began his address by declaring
that he could find no more favorable
auspices for beginning the work which
he felt it his duty to perform-aiding
"in the crystallizing of the sentiment
in favor OF peace in support of the
President in his efforts to reach an
amicable settlement of all differences
that may, during the war. arise be-
tween this country and belligerent

Atlanta, Ga, June 22.-With several
hundred men and boys clamoring to
get into the front gates OF his coun-
try home on Peachtree road, which
had been barricaded with barbed wire
entanglements, and threatening to
oyerpower twenty country policemen
armed with riot guns. Governor Slaton
called out the militia last night for
protection.
Upon the arrival of four companies
of state guardsmen, which had been
held under arms and rushed to the es-
tate in automobiles the governor pro-
claimed martial law in a district eX-
tending half a mile in front of his
home. half a mile back, and for dis
tance of about quarter of mile on
either side.
When soldiers lined up with fixed
bayonets to disperse the crowd, stones,
bricks and bottles were thrown at
them. A brick struck Lieut. Arnold
Parker in the stomach and rendered
him unconscious for a short time. A
bottle thrown at Private W. w Foope

Philadelphia.-In historic Indepen-
dence Hall, on the anniversary OF the
Battle of Bunker Hill, there was
formed an organization whose object
it will be to promote the creation of
a League of Nations, with view to
preventing wars-or at least to lessen
the possibilities of armed conflicts.
The name adopted by the organiza-
tion, after some debate, was the
League to Enforce Peace, American
Branch"
Former President Taft, who presid-
ed over the conference for a part of
the time, was elected permanent presi-
dent, and in addition long list of
representative American citizens was
named as permanent vice presidents.
a permanent executive committee was
selected, with instructions to take all
measures necessary to promote the
objects of the league.
In moving the adoption of the re-
port of the committee on resolutions
which embodied the objects of the
league. the former President of the
the United States expressed the hope
that out OF this historic building may
come a message that shall again help
the world"
There was not an assemblage of
what one participant termed pure
peace" men. but gathering of those
who for the most part believed in try
ing to bring about peace even though
they had to use force to do it.
The report OF the resolutions com
mittee said
I'VE believe 1t to be desirable for
the United States to join league of
nations binding the signatories to the
following.
"l.-All justiciable questions arising
between the signatory powers. not set
tied by negotiations shall. subject TO
the limitations of treaties, be sub
mitted to n judicial tribunal for hear
ing and Judgment, both upon the mer-
its and upon any issue as to its juris-
diction of the question.
"2.-All other questions arising be-
tween the signatories and not settled
by negotiations shall be submitted to
a council of conclliation for hearing,
consideration and recommendation.
"3.-The signatory powers shall
jointly use forthwith both their eco
nomic and military forces against
any one OF their number that goes TO
war or commits acts OF hostility
against another of the signatories be-
fore any question arising shall be
submitted as provided in the forego'
ing.
I.-Conference between the sigma
tory powers shall be held from time
to time to formulate and codify rules
of international law. which. unless
some signatory shall signify its dis
sent within stated period, shall
thereafter govern In the decisions OF
the judicial tribunal mentioned in
Article l."

MAY END WORLD WAR
BRYAN SEES GREAT oPPoRTUN.
ITY FOR PRESIDENT.
Former Secretary Issues His First
Statement on Causeless War and
Tells Neutrals' Needs.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington. - Former Secretary
Bryan, in the first section of his
statement on The Causeless War,
prophesied that the greatest peace
making opportunity in all history was
certain to come TO the United States.
and declared there would be de-
mand for an international conference
with the return of peace. to change
the rules of international law. which
seem to have been made for the ma
tions at war rather than for the ma
tions at peace"
Under the stress and strain of the
titanic struggle in which they are en-
gagged Bryan's statement says, each
side has felt itself justified in en-
croaching on the rights Of the neu-
trails. The ocean highways, the com
mon property OF all, have been to
some extent appropriated for war pur-
poses and delicate diplomatic ques-
tions are forced upon the neutral ma
tions.
Just at this time. when these ques-
lions are most acute. the belligerent
governments are least able to deal
with them with the calmness and poise
which their great importance de-
mands.
mo wonder every neutral nation is
increasingly anxious for the war to
end, but of all the neutral nations ours
has the most reason TO pray for the
return OF peace-most reason to set
its face resolutely against participa-
tion In this war,
This nation. the head of the neu.
trail group. and the sincere friend OF
all the belligerents. is the duty bound
to set an example In patience and self.
restraint
In all history no such opportunity
has ever come to any other nation as
that which is destined to come to the
United States. In all history no 9th
er peacemaker has ever been In posi-.
ton to claim as rich n blessing as that
which will be pronounced upon our
fTtrlutHt NH'u wv AiiA' iVi hi'A'"h's'i
comes as come II must"
Introducing his statement, Bryan
graphically describes the horrors and
afflictlons of the war. and says;
Neutral nations cannot look on
with indifference-th ties that bind
them together are too strong: the re
lationship too intimate. This Is espe
clally true of the United States. We
have u composite popuiation-cyery
nation in Europe having contributed
literally to our citizenship. These,
our countymen. themselves born
abroad. or Immediately descended
from foreignborn ancestors. cannot
but take n lively interest In the con
duct aa well aH In the results OF the
var: and stiil larger circle shares
the concern OF those directly con
nec,ed. Not soldier falls on either
side but the sorrow expressed In his
home finds nm echo Mt some flreaide
in the United states"

Cut the belt full length In the diagram, il is laid out with the second half indicated by dotted lines which simply mean that you can cut half of the pattern, then fold it over and cut the other half

Pin the parts carefully into place, then trace all around the out side edges with a tracing wheel or with tailors chalk or with >ast.ng .hrcad as you like. but be careful that you mark in some way, for these outside edges give the basting and sewing line and are all-important to the success of the skirt Mark the notches and pcrfora- tions, then cut as far beyond the edge of the pattern for seams as your ma terial renders desirable If the cloth is closely woven. you will need only three eighths of an inch. Iut fl 1t is loosely woven and frays readily you must allow more. After cutting, mark the traced edge, the perforations and all markings that are needed, through to the under side of the material with the tailors' tacks that have been de scribed in previous lessons; or, pin through the two pieces where each mark Is needed. then turn the cloth over on the under side and mark the points indicated as you have on the first side. Remove all the pins. fold the material and lay it aside.
 As q first step, turn the seam allow ance on the front edges under, then turn again on the lines of smaller perforations. baste and stitch the hens. Join the three pieces of the skirt, meeting the notches exactly. Next, we must make the pocket panels
