FLIES
HIS PEACE DOVE
Offers in House Resolu-
ton to Hinder Break
with Germany.
IRON ne Tribune Bureau

Washington, April 2s.-General Isaac
r. Sherwood, OF Toledo, to-day put in
his much herslded resolution designed
10 embsrrass the President in his re-
lations with Germany over the subma-
rine issue. The resolution proposes that
before any break in the diplomatic re-
lations. as threatened by the President
in his last note 20 Germany unless Ger
many ceases her Illegal U-bost attacks
there must be years arbitration b.
some high international commission.
Reciting the breathing spell" treat
les negotiated by William J. Bryan,
which the Commoner believed, until Au-
gust /, 1914, would end wars for all
time, the resolution seeks TO apply those
treaties to all countries which have
not already ratified such pacts with
the United States. Germany is one of
the countries which Mr.. Bryan could
not induce TO rstify his pet form Of
treaty.
There is much mystery over the su-
thorship Of the resolution. General
Sherwood said several days ago that
while he would introduce 1t he did not
have the resolution in his possession.
He and other pacifst members Of the
House knew that it was being drafted
before General Sherwood knew he would
introduce il.
The preamble and resolution follow:
Treaties between the United States
and eighteen other governments that
solcmnly pledge each of the contract
ing parties TO the principle and practice
Of investigation and delay before the
resort TO arms in the settlement Of in
ternationsl disputes are at the present
time in full force and effect.
"Other treaties are in force between
the United States and sundry other
governments which specifically provide
for the arbitral settlement Of disputes
not capable Of adjustment b. diplomacy
or friendly composition.
Nine Of the governments OF Europe
and the government Of the United
States have entered into treaty agree
ments duly ratified. exchanged and pro-
claimed, 10 submit all controversies
tina, threaten 70 interfere with their
peaceful relations 10 an international
commission for investigation and re-
port within one year, thus securing
delay before resort TO arms that may,
and probably would, prevent war.
The principle involved in these treat
les has been assented 20 by other gov
ernments with which formal agreements
have not been ratified and exchanged;
therefore,
BE II Resolved by the House Of Rep
rosentatiyes. the Senate concurring,
that the sane and humane method of
settling disputes between governments
set out IN the treaties hereinbofore
mentioned should be employed IN the
adjustment OF any and all serious con
troversies between the government of.

SOCIALISTS GIVE

When Shakespeare said "All the
worlds a stage" he was obviously re-
ferring to New York in 1916 and its
frenzy Of costume pageants. Las;
night fifteen different nationalities Of
socialists donned Egyptian, Roman,
Grecian and futuristic costumes OF the
most approved style and gave a labor
pageant in which. for miracle, the
familiar form Of the bard did not ap-
pear. The pageant is part OF an extern
sve effort to place the Rand School Of
Social Science on firm financial basis,
and it is TO be given for the next FIVE
days, in conjunction with a bazaar, in
the auditorium Of the Central Opera
House, Sixty-seventh Street and Third

bliss was represented by a dozen light
