PROPOSE
PACIFIST STRIKE
Zurich Congress Favors
Worldwide Move Should
New War Be Threatened.

Zurich, May Is (delaye0.-The In
ternational Congress Of Women voted
unanimously at its concluding session
today to call a worldwide strike of
women in the event another war is
declared.
The proposal was made by Fraulein
Hertzka, a delegate from Vienna 1t
was carried aftef an amendment had
been added providing that the strike
should be called even IL the war was
sanctioned by the league of nations.
The conference also resolved to send
delegation to the meeting OF the
International Socialist Executive Com
rnittee at Lscerne, in August. to ask
that all Socialists refuse military
service in case OF a new war.
Delegation to Paris.
A delegation was nominated to SUBJ
nit these resolutions to the Peace
Conference. 1t. included Mrs. Despard.
OF Great Britain: Mime. Ragez. of
Switzerland, and Signora Genona, of
Italy.
Mrs Despard. a sister OF Lord
French. introduced a resolution de-
manding representation for women In
the league of nations. and proposed
Miss Jane Adams. OF Chicago. as the
first woman representative. The res
olution was adopted unanimously.
Miss Addams in an interview ex-
pressed deep satisfaction with the
work Of the congress.
The intensity Of the spirit and
unity was most gratifying" she said.
The discussion proceeded without
any wrangling, wild talk or irrespon-
sible scheming. The moderation of
the women's demands, their political
insight and sense OF realities was sur
prising. Woman's claims to political
partnership with man were justified.
Wilson Program UnrealiEed.
The most important political fea-
lures were the protests against the
peace terms. against the economic
blockade and against armed interven-
tiOn in Russia and Hungary.
As an American / keenly feel the
present disillusionment OF Europeasn
liberals and pacifists in regard to real
ization of President Wilson's program.
II is hard to explain to Europeans that
the President did not come to Paris
as a dictator. European mentality IS
still obsessed with the idolatry of
might and even the liberals expected
Wilson to throw Americas material
might into the balance. instead OF
employing only the force of ideals.
They also criticiSe inclusion OF the
Monroe doctrine in the league COW

son is not even an American dictator

GOBS ENLISTED FOR 4
YEARS GET RELEASES

Tens Of thousands Of men who en-
listed in the navy for four years un-
der the impression that they would
be let out when the emergency was
over are being released and their
places supplied as fast as possible
by new recruits.
Officials say that probably $4,000
had been discharged on the grounds
stated. 1t was required. however.
that every man who desired a dis
charge should present conclusive
evidence that he had enlisted under
n Misrepresentation as to the actual
four years of service. Secretary of
the Navy Daniels said. speaking
generally of tho spirit of the enlist
ed men, that those in Europe who
had very little to do were almost
unanimous in their desire to get
back into civil life.
Mr. Daniels. however. said that in
his opinion the navy establishment
now in sight would require for the
manning and care of the ships to be
kept in commission about 100000
men.

CLAIMS WILSON IS
PASSING THE BUCK

Representative Longworth. OF Ohio.
says he thinks President Wilson is
trying to pass the buck to Congress
on the wartime prohibition question.

the President to extend or withdraw
the restrictions as he saw fit." Long
worth said today. He said he re-
celved legal advice that he could not
remove the restrictions. 1t may be
true. But it appears. IN my Judgment,
