ARREST TWO more
SUFFRAGE PICAETS
Women Court Trouble by
Haunting Banners at
White House
DENY GERMANS ARE
BACK OF MOVEMENT
BY The United Press,

WASHINGTON, June 23.-Escaping
a line of police outside Of suffrage
headquarters today two militant pick
cts bore a banner 20 the White House
gates and we're promptly arrested by
two police women The police char
acterized the affair as a surprise at
tack but the police women we're on
hand within a few minutes after the
pickets arrived.
The two women arrested we're Mrs.
Lawrence Lewis, OF Philadelphia. who
was previously attacked during the
anti-suffrage riots this week. and
Miss Gladys Grelner of Baltimore.
The banner they bore said:
"Mr President you say we in the
United States are interested only in
human liberty'-an extract from Will
sons address on the New Freedom"
There was no arguing between the
banner bearers and the police women.
The women had no more than unrUll-
ed their flag when the two officers
pounced on them. summoned the po-
lice auto. hustled them into II and
then TO headquarters.
Few witnessed the arrest. The
women chose the west gate. as this
was the least guarded OF the two
White House portals.
They eluded police watchers before
suffrage headquarters by concealing
their banner in a paper and taking a
roundabout route.
The women were charged with vio-
lation of sections five and six of the
police regulations against unlawful
assemblies obstructing traffic. They
were permitted 10 depart, however,
on their own recognizance with the
understanding that they will appear
later for trial
Miss Greiner Is the daughter OF
John p. Greiner. an official OF the
Baltimore & Ohio railroad and Rus
sian Railway Commission She has
been prominent in settlement work in

The talk that German money might
be behind the recent suffrage move

Will Hold Four Miles of

INDEPENDENT Line OF

By The United Press.


WASHINGTON. June 23--Americau
expedtionary forces on the French FIR
ing line may occupy a position be-
tween the British and French sector.
At first It Is estimated that the Ameri-
can expedition will occupy only about
four miles Of trenches.
From official sources it became
known today that the French mission
to this country had recommended
such a position for Pershing's troops.
At present General Pershing IS con-
ferring with General Petain upon the
exact point IN the 350-mile front that
the Americans are to hold. officials
OF the war department stated that tho
exact location was not known. but that
speculation upon IL does not violate
the voluntary censorship rules.
In Official quarters it was pointed
out that the American forces would
necessarily be placed either at the
extreme right near Switzerland or
at the extreme left near the sea or
between the French and British Such
a position would insure an indepen-
dent line OF communication and sup
ply. To break into tho French or
British sectors with the American
forces would entail endless confusion

By ARTHUR E. MANN.
UnIted Prs.. staa corre.pondent.

STOCKHOLM. June 23.-Tbe self
styled American Socialist delegates" to
the German called international peace
conference today issued their statement
of the American position on peace. o.
Foremost in the plan was a scheme for
a union or federation of ali nationalities
TO rebuild war-stricken nations and Ccn-
eral disarmament after the war.
"1he American war aims as express
ed by Davidovitch. Goldfarb and Rein
stein the three American" delegates,
lays great stress on the mo annexations.
no indemnities' principle. Further, the
peace principles favor:
Return Of all occupied territory, in
cluding the Allies return Of German col
onies ExclusOn Of Poland from this
return scheme, and restoration of Po-
land on the basis TO be determined by
a referendum of her people.
Referendum to determine the fu-
ture Of Alsace and Lorraine and re-
lated questions
Recognition OF the rights Of all
nationallties TO self-cxpressiOn.
Restoration of Belgium, Serbia
Poland. Northern France and other
war devastated districts-but no
specifications as to who shall do the
work Of restoration.
The Americans" hold that insist
enoe that Germans do this work
might serve to prolong the war.
The "Americans" further favor:
Restoration of a general agreement
as to continued disarmament
Formation of an internal league 10
keep peace. with the right OF the
league to exclude any nation which
refuses 10 submit 10 the principles
it lays down on this point the
statement says:
THE importance of such a league
is only in proportion to the growth of
the international labor movement" In
other words it appears the delegates
hint at a general strike to prevent
future wars.
In conclusion the American dele
gates" advocate the formation OF a
special permanent Socialist commit
tee to work for peace on the basis of
the coming general conference.
DR. Davidovitch, representing the
Jewish Socialists. filed a separate
memorandum advocating the abolition
OF all restrictions against Jews in all
countries. recognition OF the rights
OF Jews to self expression wherever
they might live IN large groups and
the right Of Jewish immigration and
