Suffrage Advocate Tells
Why She w it h drew
from Peace Expedition

Stockholm, Via London, Dec. %
Mrs. mez Milholland Boissevain of
New York. who withdrew from the
peace expedition Saturday, presented
at a public meeting of the delegates
today long statement of her reasons
for doing so and for beieveing the pro-
ject was doomed to failure.
The undemocratic method employ
ed by the managers of the expedition
Is repugnant to my principles" she
said. Instead of all the members
formulating plans, the work has been
confined to a few specially selected
the oscar II. took it for granted that
the rather vague opinion of the body
of delegates would be hammered into
effective shape by group action and
constructive thinking throughout the
voyage.
Cause Of Misunderstanding
An organization was not formed
until three days before the end of the
voyage. To that fact is traced all mis-
understandings dissensions, mistakes
in policy, inefficiency and inability TO
get the idea of a mediatng peace con-
gress in comprehensive shape before
the public. The organization when
finally formed was abortive. The Scan
dlnavian public which expected clear
thinking and q definite program, were
skeptical about the serious minded

CASTOR Plaintiff the personal repre-
sentative of Mr.. Ford. requested Mrs.
Boissevain to remain with the expedi-
ton, but without avail.
Since the departure of the expedi-
ton three weeks ago. no meetings have
been held at which peace plans were
discussed. Most of the discussions have
taken place about the dinner tables at
the hotels. Between meals the dele
gates went sightseeing. Mr.. Ford's
leaving the party on account of sick
ness last week is regarded as a seri-
GUS handicap.
Proceed to The Hague
The Rev. Charles f. Aked of San
Francisco, Judge Ben Lindsey of Dem
yer and others have explained that it
was imperative that the expedition
should proceed to The Hague to carry
out the original plan as far as pos
sihle. This will result in the formation

BETTER THAN NEUTRALITY.

He forgets or ignores the fact that
the law and public duty make each of

keep the peace ourselves. but to aid in
maintaining it among others.
OF course
Concerning the two combatants the
Indifferent fellow is merely neutral.
His interference in the affair might be
construed as favoring one side or the
other, especially If one of the fighters
was gaining the upper hand. But in
reality Intervention is enjoined by the
facts that the fighters may do each
other serious and lasting injury and
that the spectacle of their pounding
each other is brutal and demoralizing

1t has been reported that President
Wilson has offered the services of the
United States to settle the differences
between the two gigantic groups of

man who interferes to stop a fight on
the public highway between two men.
In that case the interviewer. possessing
