 Against Militarism. >. WOULD CUT LARGE
 WAR EXPENDITURES Many Ministers Advocate Adoption of Memorial to
 The President.

New Haven, Oct. 25-A resolution to place the National Council of Congre- gattona1 Churches on record against increased Rrmaments in the United States was presented at today's ses- sion of the business committee on be- half of Rev. Dr. Charles D. Jefferson, of Broadway Tabernacle, New York City After Moderator H. M. Beard sley, of Kansas City, had reIinquished q the chair to Professor Williston Walk CT. of Yale, he offered an amendment which in effect would be to ask all churches in the countries, without, re- gard to creed, to join in some way in move against nilitarisrn and increas- ed armaments and towards a path which would bring an early peace in Europe Several cIergymen spoke on the matter but as it had been taken up unexpectedly, and debate was en- croaching upon time assigned for oth- CT subjects, a motion prevailed that the business committee have the reso- lution and the amendment printed and brought in this afternoon for action.
 The Jefferson resolution follows:3
 Whereas, the great war now deso- lating Europe has laid bare the fa1- Iacies which lie at the basis of the policy of armed peace and has ders onstrated the futility of gigantic ar1%4 anents as the guarantee of intern@% tional security and justice, and q
 Whereas, various forces are s-t present working nightly to sweep ,ae American republic into the seroe source of governmental action wE n has brought upon Europe immeaS z1-- able disaster, therefore, be it
 Resolved, that we, the represen- tatives of the Congregational churches in the United States in national coun- ci1 assembled, view with painful solf- citude the organized and desperate ef- forts to stampede the nation, at this
 
 penditures for ships and guns and place upon record now our earnest obz lection to thescommitting of our Hz&- ton just now to a policy Of so-ca1led preparedness for which Europe is now paying an appalling price.
 'fWe appeal to the President of the United States and to the members of Congress, soon to assemble, to see to it that the enormous sums already appropriated for army and navy shall be more eff1ciently expended and to bend the entire energy of our govern D1ent. at this crisis in human history, not to the elaboration of the en- ginery of destruction, but to the working out in cooperation with other governments of a plan of inter national organizations which shall render the recurrence of the present world tragedy irnpossible.''
 Rev. pr. Washington Gladden., of O., chairman of the busi- ness committee, in offering the Jeffer- son resolution. said he believed that neutral nations could and ought to do something towards ending the war.
 ssf am not a mollycodd1e,'' he said, "and do not think am fool, but I do not want to see his nation rush into a military policy with great ar marnents and deplore the tendencies which are now prevalent to push this into militaristic position

HALF MILLION FOR
 MORE WARRENITE IS
 WILSON'S NEW MOVE
Steps Already Taken to In sure Construction of Many Miles of Pavement With out Recourse to Competi- tive Bidding.
Agents of Politicians and of , the Paving Contractors Have Circulated Petitions Which Are on File in the City Hall.


 More than half million dol lars for Warrenite in the next two years is the program of the Republican administration, should Mayor Clifford B. Will son be successful in the coming election.
 Details of the proposed big grab came to light with the pre- sentation to the Common eoun- cil of petitions asking the War renting of about 90 streets in the city.
 The petitions were solicited by Re- publican district workers in the pay Of the Warren Bros. Company. Ad- lninistration officials will not deny that their program includes the ex- pendfture of more than $5OO,0 900 for the now famous brand of patented pavement.
 According to the gigantic scheme, which had it's origin in the brains of the Warren Bros. Company officials and the friendly officers of the present administration, every street for which a petition can be obtained wil be War 1-eTsted Pleased with the success of it's initial grab fn favor of the War zren Bros. Company. the Republican administration will now limit its War renite activities only by the success attending the paid workers who are still soliciting Warrenite petitions.
 Every aVai1abIeN penny will be ,e1s1fr4p&d into the coffers of the War ren Bros company that the 90 streets, already Petiti6ned for, may be treated with Warrenfte 4 special bond Issue
 Hv,1 al 5oy-ride of the adninistraticn may go on unrestrainedly.
 The administration plans to foist on an unsuspectfnE public another con- tract specifying a price of $1.2o a ward for the Warrenite- This price, as in the contracts now in force, pays only a. small part of the real cost

HE ADVOCATES
PROFIT-SHARING
He Would Tax Fortunes Aft
er the Death of the
Owners

New York. Jan 22.--Taxation of large
fortunes, upon the death of their owners
to aid the poor; the establishment OF
government agencies to find work for the
unemployed, and provision for the com,
fort of aged workers, were advocated by
Daniel Guggenheim, president OF the
American Smelling & Refining com any
in testimony yesterday at the inquiry
by the federal commission on Industrial
relations into the great philanthropic
foundations and the causes Of industrial
unrest. Mr. Guggenheim said that, as a
capitalist. he favored these measures,
despite the fact that they constitute
some of the cardinal ideas of Social
| ism. He also advocated industrial de-
mocracy' wherein the worker received a
portion of the profit derived from his la
Dor. Industrial unrest was caused to a
| great extent, the witness believed by the
increased cost Of living. In his opinion,
the philanthropic organization did not
affect much relief from poverty. as the
average worker was reluctant to ac
cept charity and preferred employment,
Il. j. Berwind, owner OF coal mines
and director in many coal mining cor
porations and coal-carrying railroads
testified that he believed directors and
stockholders were not as well acquaint-
ed with labor conditions as they should
be.
There were trusts and bad capitalists
as well as bad unions, Mr.. Guggenheim
said The American Smelling & Re-
Rri,n coupap,, ,,nara4aa n,,an ohnrs ba
testified, because it would not allow
unions to run the business. The man
agement, however, would treat with I'M
ions, or with the men collectively the
same as with individual workers. An
other reason why the American Smelt-
ing 4 Refining company operates open
shops, Mr.. Guggenheim continued, is
because il does not believe it has
right to control workers action any
more than il had to say what he shall
eat and when he shall go to bed. Per
sOnal liberty demanded open shops, Mr..
Guggsnheim thought.
Mr.. Guggenheim named many corpo
rations in which he and his brothers
are directors The witness did not know
how many men are employed by any Of
the COMPANIES Win winch ne - coHHect-
ed He kept himself advised as
to labor conditions among his employees,
he said, and for that reason frequently
visited the various plants.

selves informed as 10 conditions. Mr.. |
Guggenheim said that in the mining
business the directors and not the stock |
holders were absolutely responsible for
labor and other conditions. The wit |
ness said the American Smelling & Re.
timing company had installed many de-
vices not only 10 improve labor condition
but to raise the standard of efficiency. l
Dir. Guggenheim discussed at length the 1
various ways in which the company had
tried to better working conditions.
