Socialists S,ujtch
Program and Are Told
to Support Wilson


New York, March 23.-AnotheI
indication of the growing shift of the
socialist party in favor of the wal
was given when A. w. Kicker, pub
Usher and general marager of Pear
sons Magazine, a socialist periodical
which has opposed the war so far.
made public q statement written by
himself which will appear in the
May issue appealing to the socialist
and radical elements in the United
States "to join in support of the war
aims of President Wilson and the
British Labor Party"
The Allies are not now fighting
for territory" says Mr.. Kicker. They
are fighting for democracy. Three
factors have made for this change:
First-The Russian Revolution.
Second-America's participation
in the war.
Third-The growing power of the
Labor Party in England.
1t is plain that the Russian revo-
luton, the attempt to found a DEM
ocracy in Russia, has made pro-
found change in the sentiments of
all the nations.
"When President Wilson commit
ted America to the war he announc-
ed that our country would demand
nothing in the way of compensation.
Ours was to be fight for democracy
and for the overthrow of German
militarism. This announcement was
received with a great deal of suspic-
ion, which was most profound, and
found expression in the st. Louis de-
claration of the Socialist party. Pres
ident Wilson. however, has empha-
sized his policy in every official de-
claration he has since made.
Moreover, the President has SET
his face strongly against the adop-
ton Of universal training, in spite OF
all the capitalist interests.
cat the time of our entry into the
war the sorest point of all to Amer.
leans was an alliance with Great
Britain against which there has been
natural Unborn feeling on the part
of native Americans which has been
imbibed from our school textbooks
Our i'll feeling against England, how.
ever, will all be swept away with the
rise of the British Labor party
which is sure to be party Of great
influence in England after the par
liamentary elections are held.
1.-THE program of the British la
Dor party, little known as yet in this
country, but sure to be discussed al
it becomes known, constitutes one Of
the most interesting documents ir
the history Of the English people.
"The one big fact at the present
moment is this: Democracy, rea
Democracy. is beginning to function
in every one of the allied nation.
, which are really fighting, and wher
Democracy functions through the AL
lied governments then the war in
deed becomes a war by Democracy
of Democracy and for Democracy.
believe the time has come now il
this country when the socialists ant
radicals must change their attitude
toward the war or they will b,
charged with being ridiculous.
Nothing is clearer from thu
events of last year than that thu
president has set his face against thu
forces of reaction. Therefore it is Of
the highest importance that the rad
icals work with rather than against
the president. Thousands of Amer
lean socialists are in the army anG
there will be more thousands called
We, who are not in the army, can,
not wash our hands OF the war.

The Japanese embassy, in an
nouncing that no decision had been
reached in Toxic on the contem-
plotted intervention in Siberia. said
that Japan still is giving the most
careful consideration to the "fun-
damental' questions involved, which
do not relate to eXpediency, but to
allies and of Russia.
Although Japan has not approach
ed the United States government
concerning financial assistance, in
the event the Toxic government de-
cides to occupy EASTERN Siberia. 1t
was learned in an authoritative
quarter that she would expect to re-
ceive loans from the American treas
ury to cover her war purchases in
this country.
AS President Wilson is opposed to
Japanese or any other Intervention
in Siberia, it was considered doubt
full if this government would feel
justified in assisting japan to make
effective her intervention. 1t was
believed in well-informed circles
that the possible denial of mater
ial support by the United States is
largely responsible for the delay in
announcing decision at Toxic.
Japan, it was learned, would not
Immediately need financial aid from
this country, but if the occupation
should take place in large force and
complications, including an uprising
of the Russian people against the in
vasion should take place, there was
believed to he a probability that
Japan would be compelled to call
upon the allies and America for as
sistance in provisioning and main
tanning her army in Siberia.
A statement issued today by Boris
Bakhmeteff, the Russian ambassador
appointed by Kerensky, indicated
that Russian diplomats finally have
reached conclusions which are hos
tile to Japanese Intervention. al
though that subject was not specifi-
cally mentioned in the formal state
ment
The ambassador asserted that the
liberation of Russia from the violent
peace which threatened both the dis
ruption of the country and the ex-
tinction of the hope of freedom was
conceivable only with the cooper
alton and direct support of the al
lies," but in Russian diplomatic cir
Giles it was asserted that the "direct
support" did not contemplate Japan
ese intervention.

Liberty Motor Stands Test.

The first Liberty motor to reach
Washington in actual service has ar
rived, driving navy flying boat
from Norfolk and carrying the pilot
and two passengers. 1t came in yes
terday, but was unheralded and the
Navy Department made no announce
ment until today. The trip was made
in approximately two hours despite
the fact that the boat got off the
.175-mile course mapped out and COW
cred considerably greater distance.
No trouble whatever was experience
ed with the Liberty engine.
The return trip will be made with
in few days. The boat. one of the
smaller types for sea service, has not
been placed on exhibition while here.
Navy officials are highly satisfied
with the performance of the motor,
however, and further long-distance
tests are to be expected.
The crew of the boat accompanied
department officials on an inspec-
ton trip today to witness the per-
torrance of the larger type flying
boat equipped with two Liberty mo-
tors
The navy type Liberty motor is not
fitted to develop the same power as
the type used in land machines. Fly
ing boats or hydroplanes are not de-
signed to maneuvre at the high alti-
tudes of the army craft and the
same piston compression is not nee
essary. The Liberty supplies 50-horse
power in excess of the estimated
needs for the navy ain service.

Japan Still Undecided on Intervention

II Is certainly cause for national
satisfaction that for the last three or
four weeks the plants in the United
States making rifles have been turn

or over 100000 month. This Is a
fairly satisfactory pace. although 1t
by no means measures the produce
ton that will come when the plants
are further tuned up. 1t is possible
for rifle plants as organized at pres
ent to produce 100000 rifles per
annum, which should certainly sup
ply the utmost needs of the Amer-
can forces. There ere three big rifle
producers aside from the two gov
eminent arsenals at Springfield and
Rock Island. One is the Eddystone
works at the Baldwin Locomotive
company. This is the biggest rifle
plant in the country, with capacity
of nearly 5000 daily. 1t must be
nearly up to capacity at present. In
addition the ilion works OF the REM
ington Arms company and the New
Haven plant of Winchester Arms
are turning out between them 5000
rifles or perhaps slightly more each
day,

Daniels May Go to War Zone.

Either Secretary Daniels or
Franklin D. Roosevelt, assistant
secretary of the navy, will go to
France soon after the return to Am
erica of Secretary Baker. The pro-
posed visit is mainly for consultation
with American naval officers and
probably with the naval members of
the Supreme War Council at Ver-
sailles. The object is to obtain a
first hand view of what is being done
by the allied naval forces in order
to put Mr.. Daniels or Mr.. Roosevelt
in better position to understand just
what has been done. what is being
done, and what it is intended to do
in the way of naval operations. The
responsible officials of the navy de-
partment have a clear idea of the

forces are working, but the opinion

be set aside or modified by any Sc
cret diplomacy around a council
table where trading and trafficking
cf individual interests may affect
those fundamental principles upon
which the public opinion of the
world is really agreed"
These principles, Senator Owen
said, should include the right of ev-
cry civilized nation and every self
governing people to exercise the
right of internal self-government,
with exclusive control within its own
territory over immigration, imports,
and exports, and all internal affairs;
the right OF. complete territorial in
tegrity, -and, financially, the actual
freedom of the seas.
To enforce these principles. Senat-
or Owen said, it is first necessary to
end the present war. This he would
do by submitting to Germany an
ultimatum which, if not agreed to
within thirty days, would cause
cause Germany to be subjected for
five years to the following measures:
Refusal by allied nations to allow
German ships to clear or enter allied
ports.
Prohibition of import or export,
directly or otherwise, ,of any mer-
chandise or raw materials from or
to Germany from or to allied ma
tions.
Prohibition of the expectation to
Germany of coin, bullion, paper
money or securities.
Cutting off of telephone, cable,
telegraph and postal communication
between Germany and other coun-
tries.
Prohibition of the entrance of Ger
man subjects into any of the allied
countries.
For every thirty days succeeding
the first thirty that Germany refus-
ed to agree to these terms, Senator
Owen would add a year to the penal
ty period.
He declared that this was the only
way in which Ger many's people
could be brought to the point of re-
volt.
