SENATOR WILLIAMS URGES SMALL ARMY
 WHEN WAR IS OVER
CBv Review Leased Wirel

NBN Review Leased Wtrel
 PHILADELPHIA, May 17.-United States Senator John Sharp Williams of Mississippi speaking tonight at the National convention of the League to Enforce Peace, suggested 450,000 men as a safe limit for national armies af- ter the United States and its allies shall have removed Ehe danger of German mil itarism by decisively win ming the war.
 "The greatest nations-Britain, France, Germany, Japan, the United States-need no more unless they pre- mediate offense." he said. Does this limitation deprive the strong and pop ulous states of their natural advan- tage? No. They shall have that ad- vantage in their reserves of superior populations and resources.
 "All that would follow is that none of them could by surprise murder a sleeping world as Germany and Aus tria came so near doing"

 take you to Chicago for a good time She said: Other people do those things and I don't see why we can't"
 Makes Frantic Denial
 It was at this point that Miss Lusk leaped to her feat with the frantic denial which electrified the court room. After staring straight at the witness for a moment with tear filled eyes she turned and sank sob ing into her fathers arms.
 Later. on cross examination. Dr. Roberts in again describing the incl dent said that he had also told her: "I am stranger to you and you are stranger to me. If you wait a year you won't want to go to Chicago with me"
 In telling of the events immediate ly preceding the tragedy. Dr. Rob erts told of visit made to his house on the eve of the shooting. He said Miss Lusk asked him if he had told his wife as he had sworn to do. and he said that he had not but that he would do so at once. Alter walking back through the park with her when he succeeded in inducing her to re- turn to her home, the witness said that he went to his wife and told her that Miss Lusk has asked me to tell you that she is infatuated with me"
 As result Mrs. Roberts decided that she would see Miss Lusk at once. he said, despite his efforts to arrange a meeting through another woman who was a friend of the two, and she next sday went to the MilPs home. Shortly afterward his wife called him on the telephone and asked him to come over When he arrived she was unconscious with bullet in her heart and died a few minutes later.
 Tells of Relations
 Near the end of the session, when he was telling of finding the body of his wife. he broke down and sobbed. On direct examination although in structed by the court that he need not answer questions which might tend to incriminate himself, Dr. Rob erts told in detail of his relations with Miss Lusk and of several meetings with her in Milwaukee and Chicago hotels.
 On cross examination he gave his age as g and his occupation as a. manufacturer of medicines for ami, mals.
 Dr. Roberts was called to the wit. ness stand unexpecteded by the state late in the morning session after two physicians had testified that Miss Lusk, from descriptions of her con duct following the shooting, must have been insane at the time.
 In the crowded courtroom were many children and several babies Court adjourned with Dr. Roberts still on the stand.
