SWEDEN MAY GET
 THE ALAND ISLANDS
Group Has Been Point of Dispute
 With Russia

Washington, April 3.--'It Sweden succeeds in re-acquiring the Aland Is~ lands while all Russia is in turmoil, the Rosheviki debacle will be the pro- verbal political ill-wind blowing good to the Scandinavians," says war geography bulletin issued today from the Washington headquarters of the National Geographic society.
 For moro than 200 years the Aland Islands, which are situated like a cork in. the wide mouth of the Gulf of Bothnia, have been sort of Alsace- Lorraine question between the SWcdcS and the Russians. After having passed back and forth several times, they were finally ceded to Russia n 1909. During the reign of Nicholas l., they were strongly fortified a move most distasteful to Sweden because c- the fact that the islands occupy a strong strategic position with respect to Stockholm, the Swedish copitai which is less than 100 miles to tue southwest from BomarSund the chief fortitication of the islands.
 "ThCsc Notifications were short lived. In 1854, during the Crimean War. a Franco British fleet, under Sir Charles Napier and Paraguay d'EIiI- Hers, destroyed the works, and since that time the islands have remained unfortified, in accordance with an in ternational agreement.
 '"rhe Aland group, which is separated from the Swedish mainland by Aland Bay (Aland HaD and from the Finnish mainland by Skiftet Sounl, is composed of some 300 islands ard rocky islets. the total area of which Is not more than $50 square miles The largest island, AIand Ca name sig nifying land of streamSD, is almost as large as all the others combined, hay ing an area of 247 miles (about twice the size of Martha s Nineyard.)
 "Cattle-raising and fishing are the chief occupations of the 25, 1000 people who live on the islands. Some cereals (barley and Oats) are grown on the thin soil, and there are d few forests of birch, spruce and fir.
 'Fhe chief town of the islands is Marichamm, an attractive little bath ing resort having q population Of 1,40O. In times of peace a daily steam CT service is maintained between this port and Apo, the oldest and histor- ically the most interesting city in Fin land. The voyage from Apo to Marie hsmm takes about 0 hours.

 If Sweden succeeds in holding the islands they will be of great value to her. for they control the entrance to the Gulf of BOthnia, through which most of that kingdoms internal trade is carried on.'

ly overrun in violation of every here tofore recognized law of nations and In contemptuous disregard of every heretofore sacredly given pledge; when Christian mothers and daughters and sisters have been debauched and their non-combatant fathers husbands and brothers slaughtered without pro vocation Or juStif1ca tiOn, and all mas been done in the namc of God or Inc German Emperor. it is high timo for every American citizen to declare himself by his acts and to give to tho government the UnQua llIlCd support "l every dollar he is able to produce and spare from the support of himself and family. Any man who has through out his life enjoyed the blessings con- frrl,ed upon every American citizen by the beneficent laws and institutions of this country, who does not openly declare himself and stand shoulder to shoulder with every other loyal clt- zen, no matter to what church he De- longs or whether he is ldcnIlneu ac- lively with any church or not, doeS not deserve the protection of the laws un- der which he has thriven. He deserves to become the political slave of the autocrltir. unspeakable Hun of tho Junk,rs who would rule the world and who will enslave everyone who shall oppose them if America does not win this war. I cannot believe that your people have looked this situation squarely in the face, else they would see the truth as 1t has been seen by the vast majority of their fellowciti zens who are cheerfully accepting the sacrifices imposed upon them by this war, which Is so eminently war Of right defending against might and which must be won by the right, else the lamp of political and religious lib erty will be eXtingushed for centuries to come and the people of this Coun- try and their allied co-hghters againSt autocracy that knows no right but might will be enslaved for ensuing centuries.
 ''Thousands of people in this coun- try who are aS COnScientiOuSly Op- posed to war as are the members of your church are cheerfully and pray erfully contributing of their cash 1o fill the coffers of our government to support on the fighting front and on the high sea the flower of our young manhood giving of it's life blood in protection of our dearly bought and to be dearly defended liberties. In this present drive, your people are not asked 10 give of their substance to the government, only to invest with the government. at a goodly rate of inter- est, all the surplus they would other wise invest in banks at a lesser inter- est or on mortgages, the principal and interest free from taxes. Can loyal citizen do less and deserve the claim to loyalty? Would they dare by req son of failure to rally to this call to be considered less than loyal?
 ''% Go over the top and carry every one of your thrifty, loy- al-thinking people with you. They owe it to their country, to their president who is the president of the whole people, to their wives and children, to themselves and to the God of the fath- erless and oppressed of other Chris tian lands to do their bit, their whole duty in this and every situation that shall arise in the cause of right"
