Paris, Nov. 2O.--A dispatch to the
Havas agency from Zurich, Switzer-
land, referring to the pacifist mani
festation, says:
"Disorders of increased gravity
have broken out again. Two thou
sand persons marched, singing The
Internationale' to the prison where
were confined those persons arrested
lurfng the Previous riots. The blinds
and windows of the prison were
smashed and the police charged the
mob with drawn sabres.
"The rioters again erected barrt-

stones, whereupon the Police drew
their revolvers and ired Four per-
sons were killed.

Other dispatches say the disorder

tryler and Rotter, their theme being
the Russian revolution. The orators
called on their hearers to sustain the
pacifist movement by refusing service
in and supplies for the Swiss army.
Later the proposal was made to
proceed to a factory producing NUM-
tons for Germany. Nearly thou
sand persons assembled at the court
of the factory and summoned their
managers and demanded that. they
suspend work The mob began break
ing windows in the factory. the lights

crowd went to another factory and it
was decided to close this concern
after conference had been held with
two pacifist delegates.

A Zurich dispatch to LA Presse says
a dozen persons were killed and a
movement of the population has been
prohibited in several quarters of the

SEES NO PEACE UNTIL 1919
Congressman Mccormick Gives Views
on Return Home.

Chicago. ov 20.-Russia's collapse
and the unreadness OF the United
States makes hopeless any thoughts
of peace before 1919, in the opinion
of Nledill Mccormick congressman at
large of Illinois, who has just re-
turned from a visit to most of the i'm
portant fronts OF the European battle
line.
Mr.. Mccormick said: The Ger
mans are not winning the war. Mel
Their are we.
The war today presents stale
mate from which we are unable to eX-
trirate ourselves, because of the col
lapse of Russia and the unreadiness
of the United States.
nowhere in Europe did l find an
informed soldier or public man who
believed that a military decision could
he achieved before 1919, when the
United Staes might be ready to add
effectively to the sum Of pressure on
the Central empires. Perhaps econo-
mic conditions or political events in
Germany might induce peace before
that time, but although Germany Is
suffering progressively more than her
Western enemies, her autocratic ma
chine and her economic reserves seem
Altogether adequate to hold her to-
sether through two more winters.
