TERRIBLE spAsmo
British Labor Leader Makes Dire
Prediction.

=
Prediction.
Lucerne. Switzerland Aug 3
Before winter sets in there will be
"a terrible spasm of rage and despair
among the peoples of Europe in
which the final remains of civiliza-
ton may be totally annihilated," 1t
was predicted by Arthur Henderson.
the British labor leader, at the open
ing session of the international soci
alist conference here yesterday The
remarks of Mr.. Henderson, who was
the principal British labor leader
present, followed those OF Otto Wells
man socialists, who declared that the
German workingman expected from
the socialists the creation of real
league OF nations He characterized
the league organized in Paris, with
out Germany and Russia as members
of mere pleasantly"
In abiding to the peace treaty dur
ing his address, Mr. Henderson de-
clared the principal points OF it ought
to be subjected to immediate and
thorough revision.
Condemnation of support of Ad-
miral Kolchak, head of the all-Rus-
sian government at Omsk. by the en-
tente nations, was expressed by
James Ramsay Macdonald OF the Brit
ish delegation, and Marcel Cachin,
the French socialist leader. Both the
speakers demanded that an energetic
attitude be adopted by the socialists
toward these nations, particularly on
this ground.
Emile Vandervelde the Belgian Soc
ialist, gave his opinion that it would
be impossible to reconstitute the in
ternational socialist organization nm
til the question of war responsibilit-
les was settled. He further declared
that in his view 1t would be impos-
sible to merge the second and third
for the reason that while the second
aimed at revolution by the majority
element among the peoples in con
formity with democratic principles,
the third was for immediate revolu-
tion by the minority.

That money which is saved now will
