BRITISH RELEASE
WAR DIRECTORS
About 800 Quakers Remain to
Work Out Hard
Sentences


London, May 23.-Conscientious
op1ectors in increasing numbers are
peing released from English pris-
ons, but there are still about 500
Quakers and other objectors to mil
ltary service who are working out
hard-work sentences.
More than 450 have been set free
since April s, when a war office
measure governing the release of OBJ
1ectors became effective. The order
applies only to those who have
served sentences aggregating in
length two or more years. Among
those given their liberty this month
were Fenner Brockway, formerly
editor of the Labor Leader. Walter
Ayles, of Bristol, a member of the
executive committee of the Inde-
pendent Labor party, and other
leaders of the "no-conscription"
movement.
Altogether 6,135 men have resist
ed the British military service acts
and $500 of them have been court
martialed. Since the armistice FAC
men have been tried by military
courts. Sixty-three objectors have
died since being arrested, nine while
in prison.
From the beginning of conscrip-
ton there has been considerable agi-
tation in the press and elsewhere
against the measures taken to pun
ish conscientious objectors. With
the signing of the armistice the
friends and supporters of the &C
O.'s," as the conscientious objectors
are referred to in English newspa.
pers. became unusually active, ano
their efforts to persuade the gov
ernment to release the prisoners
have been unf1agging.
They contend that hostility te
continued conscription is rapidly
gaining ground and that the imprls'
oned martyrs of opinion" evoke
more sympathy than anger.
One of the most prominent of the
Quakers serving a prison sentence
is e. d. Ludlam, who is well known
for his researches in chemistry.
The argument advanced for still
keeping the c.. O.'s confined is tina
if they were released now they woulc
be given an unfair advantage in the
matter of obtaining employment over
the men who are unable yet to Sc
cure rehabilitation from the army

Thinks Actors
Must Believe in
Parts They Play

Berlin, May 23.-The actors of
the municipal theater at Dortmund
compelled the management to re-
move Schiller's Maid of Orleans"
and Kleist's prince of Homburg'
from the theater's repertoire, on the
ground that the non-conformity of
these plays with the spirit of the
age is an insult for modern theater-
goers, and further because actors
cannot be called upon to play roles
whose intellectual content is in op-
position with the actors own views"

relative to Kiao Chau and Shantung.
1t is said this will not affect the
treaty as a whole and will preserve
the rights of China.
Precedents are cited in which the
United States Senate has similarly
attached reservations to treaties be-
fore ratifying them.
Senate May Interpret Greed
The American delegation to the
Peace Conference is favorably in
clined to a suggestion received in a
letter from Herman H. Kohlsaat, of
Chicago, saying that a movement
was under consideration by which
the Senate would adopt a resolution
giving it's interpretation of certain
articles in the covenant of the
League of Nations.
1t is pointed out that the effect
of such a resolution would be to
place on record the Interpretation of
the document upon which the Senate
would base ratification and at the
same time leave the covenant effec-
tive as an international document.

especially vigorous in criticism of the
legislatures action four years g in
