The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1916-1920, 1918-11-28

While the majority Socialists and
bourgeois desire the Assembly to be
summoned as specdil, as possible. the
Independent Socialists take the stand
that the Introduction Of Socialistic re-
forms Is more important and must be
brought about first. The independent
Socialists desire that when the As
sembly eventually comes into being It
shall find itself faced by a collection
of reforms so firmly established that Il
cannot undo them.
In their efforts to postpone the sum-
moning of the Assembly the independ-
ent Socialists are supported by the
Spartacus group, who oppose the AS
semUly altogether.
The attitude Of the independent So
c!alists was stated by Herr Haase in
an address TO Independent Socialists
Monday night. He declared the asa
sembly must ne convened, but that
the most vital interests of the prole-
tariat demanded that the ground
gained by the revolution must first
be fortified securely while the prole-
tariat still has the power to do so.

Necessity for Full Accord.

There is, however this difference bc-
tween the prospective preliminary
meeting and the last session at Ve.-
sailles: At this preliminary meeting,
which is TO be the backbone OF tho
peace treaty. there must be agreement
among the four leaders before the for
mai sessions can be taken up. Pres!-
dent Wilson did not agree with tho
views taken blythe Entente Allies on
freedom OF the seas at the Versailles
conference, though he did agree Oh
their stand regarding repara.!on by
Germany. At this meeting there mus:
be full accord on this vital question,
for the President could not permit tho
United States TO embark on the details
OF treaty making II this nation werI
at the outset opposed 10 the vital prin-
ciple or principles to be applied.
Therefore IT, is believed by mans

Await Return OF Prisoners.

Herr Haase discussed the alleged
difficulties In the way or an early
meeting OF the assembly and declared
that the returning soldiers knew nNth-
ing OF politics and must have an op-
portunity to inform themselves. He
declared the assembly must not be
convened before the German prisoners
of war return and have an oppor-
tunity to vote. This would be impos-
sihle If the assembly is held in Feb
ruary.
Other independent Socialists go rs
far as to declare that eventual oc-
cupation by allied troops would be a
cheap price TO pay for complete
victory OF Socialism, by which they
apparently mean the independent
brand of socialism.
The attitude of the majority So
cialists In the government IS set forth
by Philip Scheidemann lin the
VOriCderts. He declares that the al
legged technical difficulties in the way
of early election can easily be over
come.
There is no need. he says, for the

Cincinnati, Ohio, Jan. 6.-Ice
gorges had again formed above and
below the Cincinnati harbOr last night,
and river men expressed the fear that
when these gorges break the damage
to river property would be as great, II
not greater, than that caused by the
breakup of the ice.
Three large steamers were sunk in
the local harbor and another was
swept away by the ice floes, as were
numerous smaller craft. More than
fifty coal barges were swept down
stream. The loss to property was es-
timated at 100000.
On the lower river at Paducah,
where a gorge broke Tuesday, carry
ing vessels away valued at more
than $1,OO0,OOO, a second gorge had
formed with prospects that it would
break and destroy the remainder OF
the winter fleet. Dynamite was used
today in an effort to break the ice
jam.

Rare Opportunity for Our Youth

The Government is offering a rare opportunity to the youth Of our land in connection with the Educational Campaign and the extension of the Selective Draft law.
 In effect. it will provide that young men between the ages of IS and 20 will be inducted into the service and will be detailed to colleges and universities on the full pay of enlisted men. $50 month. When they have made proper preparations, they will be detailed to the officers training camps. it being the purpose of the Government to recruit mill tary officers from them. 4 high school education is necessary for entrance into this class, but those who have only grammar grade education will be detailed to the colleges ard assigned to technical work. They will not be eligible to the Officers Training Camps. but when called will be inducted into service as privates.
 This means that young man with a high school education will be given an opportunity to com plete his education at Govern ment expense, and have a chance to secure an officers commission.
 Gen. March, Chief of Staff. has approved, by order of the Secre tary of War, the plan for the or ganization of Student Army Training Corps in the education al institutions of the country to train men as officers and techi- nal experts. It will mean that every college in tbe country, ey- cry university. ana other higher institutions will become a mil tary school during the war, and no one knows how long after ward.
 The length of tEe time during which men will be trained in the colleges will depend upon the needs of the service. As fast as one group of trained men is drawn into the service from the colleges. their places will be talk en by new quota obtained by voluntary induction or through

LIGHT ON HISTORIC QUESTION
Testimony Seems to Prove Napoleon
tIad Not Planned to March on
St. Petersburg.

Old correspondence has been
found in England which throws
much light on the much-mooted
question as to whether Napoleon
planned a march on st. Petersburg.
The correspondence reads: "When
Comte de Simeon met Napoleon in
Dresden after the emperor's return
from Russia in a sorry, one-horse
sledge-De Simeon was then prime
minister of the kingdom of West
phalia, and came to inquire after his
own sovereign, King Jerome-Na-
poleon said to him: You probably
think | ought to have added to the
collection of cudgels of the Great
Frederick which | brought from
Potsdam by getting one of Peter the
Great, which are kept in st. Peters,
burg. But | never had the stomach
to undertake the invasion of that
mud peninsula, most of it morass
and water. Besides / had become
interested in the problems of Rus
sian civil administration; that kept
me in Moscow and kept me too long.
Perhaps if | had pushed on | would
not be here now.'"

SECRET OF SNAKES GLIDE.

Did you ever watch a snake glid-
ing over the ground in graceful
curves, and did you ever stop to
think of the mechanical principles
involved in its motion? The snake
moves along the ground in undulat-
ing curves produced by the contrac-
lion of the longitudinal system of
muscles in alternate sections of its
body. That alone would not pro-
luce a forward motion, however,
we're it not for the friction of the
'cales on the underside Of the snakes
body against the roughness of the
ground. BY bracing the rear part of
!he body the forward part is enabled
10 glide forward and by reversing
The process the rear part is dragged
forward to a new position.-Popular

MOST WILLS ARE UPHELD
Statistics Show That Jurles Are Gen.
orally Willing to Maintain Validity
Of Legal Testaments.

The right to regulate what shall
be done with ones property after
death remains substantially intact,
and this, too, Notwithstanding the
popular impression that the inten-
tion OF tcstators is very easily frus-
trated. 1t is a current belief, which
derives color from the sensational
contests of which we read in the
newspapers, that great many wills
are broken, Robert Grant writes in
Scribner's. But, though the attacks
Of disappointed or greedy relatives
are Numerous, the contrary is true,
according to the records of the
largest county of the state with
which | am most familiar and where
predatory tendencies against tes-
tators are well developed. These rec
ords show a steady average Of rather
less than 1 per cent Of wills disal-
lowed during the last ten years, re-
suit which is made more remarkable
by the reminder that some Of these
were set aside because of defective
attestation instead of mental inca
pacity and undue influence Of the
maker, ordinarily urged by the repa-
cious. The statistics for the same
period show yearly average Of less
than 1 per cent of wills compromised
that is, where the legatees and
next Of kin agree to split their diff
fcrences with the sanction of the
court. These figures, which are un-
doubtedly indicative of conditions
elsewhere, reveal disposition on the
part Of juries to uphold the validity
Of legal te,taments and tend to con-
tradict the notion Of the "man in
the street" that his last wishes are
apt to be disregarded.

MANY SWEET THINGS IN LIFE.

There are always so many beauti-
full things around us and before us
that we miss. If we would only open
our hearts and minds to them how
different our outlook upon life might
be.
Especially now with the weight of
the world war pressing more and
more upon us, do we need to look for
all that is beautiful and good, and if
we would do so we would find our
selves less frctful of existence, less
intent upon our own ills and troubles
and we might be able to say with the
gypsy man in Lavengro:
'Life is sweet, brother. :.
There's day and night, brother, both
sweet things; sun, moon and stars,
all sweet things; there's likewise o
wind on the heath. Exchange.
