SOCIALISTS CALL
 STRIKE IN ITALY
 AS TREATY PROTEST
Treaty Denounced as Allied Attempt to Suffocate Bolshevism in Russia
 and Hungary
By Associated Pr.n

Rome, Saturday, July 12.-The intransi- geant socialists have issued a manifesto proclaiming a general strike on July 20 and 21 as a protest against the peace treaty, which is denounced as "an at tempt by the allies to suffocate bolshe- yism in Russia and Hungary.
 'Workmen of France will do likewise. :" the manifesto says. "Workmen of Eng land will also show their intention to bring to bear the powerful action of their trade unions. Workmen in Switz- erland. Holland, Denmark and Sweden will join in the movement. Thus the flag of the internationale will be un- furled against the premeditated crimes of the burgeoise."
 The Socialist Italian Union, comprising g mode moderate elements, has published another manifesto, agreeing to general strike, but warning workmen that the English proletariat does not join in the strike, although it's government has the greatest responsibility as to intervention in Russia
 The manifesto states that the strike in France is a protest against the high cost of living and not in behalf of Rus sia and Hungary.

OTHER ARRESTS
TO FOLLOW SOON

Kansas City, Mo-, May 15.--Arrests
will be made of other persons alleged
to have participated in the transac-
tons which led to the arrest yester-
day of. Mrs. Samuel Tranin and Mrs.
Amanda Samis on warrants charging
them with obtaining money under
false pretenses. according to state
ment made today by Edward J. Cur
tin, assistant prosecutor.
No estimate can be placed on the
amount of actual money involved in
the proceedings, he declared, until all
investors have been located. Present
indications, he said, would place the
amount at practically one-half mil
lion dollars.
Most of the investors, according to
the prosecutors statement, were
women. The instruments promised
were in oil, platinum and in junk,
the latter to be sold to the govern
ment, the statement declares.
Cancelled checks on d local bank
to- investors to the amount of $780,
900, covering period of several years
are known to exist, Mr.. Curtin, pros
ecutor asserts. A petition in bank
ruptcy was filed April 26 in the fed
eral court here by creditors of Mrs.
Samis.

BETTER SCHOOLS.

Another appreciable step in advance
was taken when the local school
board decided to institute musical
training in the grammar school
grades of the city and physical cul-
ture for the young ladies in the high
school. Both will materially in
crease the efficiency of the Pine Bluff
institutions of learning.
Music has recently come to play a
large part in the worlds work. Be-
sides the psychological effect that
singing has on those who participate
in it or who merely respond as listen
ers, correct singing under competent
supervision, aids in properly placing
and controlling the speaking voice
and developes the throat, chest and
more particularly the diaphram.
Many of the largest business institu-
tions in the country have recently ar
ranged regular hours each day to be
devoted by their employees to sing
ing and the result is noticeable in
the increased efficiency of these en-
ployes. The value Of music at the OPP
perfume time was never more forci-
bly, demonstrated than in the recent
war, The hun soon learned to fear the
singing Sammy and there are bat
ties that were won with song when
everything else had failed.
The institution of physical train
ing in the high school for young lad
les is probably even more necessary
than music lessons for the younger
children. Most girls enter the high
school about the time that they are
developing into young womanhood
and it is essential that they know
how to take care of themselves
physically. Neglect, through ignor-
ance, at this time means impaired
health III after years.
Physical training of the proper
sort will enable these young women
to correct faults that may not be
remedied later; will teach them to
take an acute interest in the proper
care and development of their bodies
and will aid them in maintaining
good health. Bad health and puny
body are the greatest handicap that
a man can have. And for the future
mothers Of the race, poor health is q
tragedy,

walks of life. King George was rep
resented by the Earl of Athlone,
brother of Queen Mary.
Services Simple.
The service was conducted by the
dean of Westminster. No address was
delivered. The opening sentences Of
the >buriel service were sung by the
choir, which then sang the Twenty
Third Psalm and short lesson from
the Revelations of st. John. Then
came Sullivan's anthem, "Yea, though
l walk through the valley of the
shadow of DEATH" and II heard a
voice from Heaven"
The Litany, the Lord Prayer and
two collects were then repeated, fol-
lowed by the hymn abide with me-"
The benediction was then pronounced
and the last post and reveille were
sounded.
The service which began at noon,
lasted half an hour. The procession
left the abbey to the strains Chopin s
funeral march and proceeded to the
station where the coffin of plain oak
was placed on train for Norwich.

HUN MUST SAY
ono" TO TREATY

Paris, May Neutrality-suspicious.
stien, the German social democrat
leader, in an article in the Vorwearts
of Berlin, transmitted here, says that
the peace terms show evidence of
compromise on several points and that
sense of moderation is evident. He
points out that many of the demands
on Germany are only temporary in
character but declares that ameliora-
ton of some of the terms ought to
be obtained through oral discussion.
Herr Bernstein reaches the conclu-
sion that Germany must say mo" to
the actual conditions, but that this
mo" must leave the road open for
