Peace means Justice. There's more
forgiveness than spite in this old world
but nations in general, Germany in
particular, must know that wanton
murder cannot go unnunished if de-
mocracy is to endure. The world may
cry ''Peacel Peacep but there is no
peace without justice.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-Although their efforts to have the house rules committee report a rule for immediate consideration of the bill appropriating S100,000,0 900 for famine relief in Europe. failed today, administration leaders an nounced tonight that they had not giv- en up hope of early consideration of the measure
 Another attempt to get the commit tee to report out a rule will be made soon. it was said, and if this fails the bill will be offered as an amendment to some other measure before the house. In the meantime the famine bill, pas sage of which has been requested by President Wilson, remains on the house calendar and its opponents said it would stay there until the administra- tion explained more definitely where and how the money is to be used.
 The vote against the rule today in committee, was five to three, but flaw orable action, when a new effort is made to get a rule, was indicated to- night when Representative Kelly of Pennsylvania, independent, announced that he favored the bill His vote in committee with the six democratic members leaders hope to have present, would give majority over the four re- publicans and one progressive who to- day kept the bill on the calendar.
 Republicans on the committee op- posed the rule today, on the ground that congress was without sufficient information for action. and a similar View was expressed by other members of the house. and by democratic sena tors who today continued their confer ences on the measure. :.

FIRE MARSHA[S SAY NEWSPAPERME
 FINE FIRE FIGHTERS
TRepubIican A. p. Leased Wirel

NEW YORK, Jan. 9.-Fires in the United States take an annual toll Of more than 15,000 lives, and cause q property loss of approximately s25O,- 000,000, according to statistics read at the opening here today of conference between representatives of the Fire Marshals' association of North America and the National Board of Fire Under writer's
 These statistics, compiled from re- ports of marshals from various states, were presentedby Colonel James R. Young, insurance commissioner and fire marshal of North Carolina. He added that most of the persons killed or burned to death were women and children.
 T. A Fleming of Columbus, Ohio, president of the Fire Marshals' associ- ation reported that more than 9S per cent of the fire prevention orders is sued by states had been obeyed. He as- seted that more had been accomplished in the last two years towards reducing fire waste, than in the ten preceding years.
 Forming newspaper reporters ma chine guns and editors as 'heavy ar tillery," in the fight against fire, he conunued:(
 l He llueSI asset lOT d lire I1ldTSflal is friendly press. Newspapers are most eager to give facts, if related to real conditions. Just as in the recent conflict. where the rapid fire of the machine guns accounted for a great percentage of the casualties, so daily attacks in the newspapers, against careless fire, strikes the bulls eye of public attention.
 Newspaper men are sharp. They are also loyal. We should do everything in our power to cultivate their friendship and command their respect. They know whether or not we are four | flushing or whether we are playing square. Public sentiment is moulded in printers ink. Therefore, the more said in the papers about carelessness and | it's cure, the easier it is to convince the | public that something must be done at
 once to stop our needlessand enormoas fire waste.

SACRAMENTO. Cal, Jan. 9-Elbert Coutts, a government witness, who said he was 23 years of age, and had served term in. prison for burglary commit ted in California, took the witness stand just before the close of court today and detailed his own participation and that of seven defendant in the manu- facture of incendiary bombs and igni- tion of fires, as part of what the gov ernment is seeking to prove was wide spread plot of Industrial Workers of the World against the war program of the United States government. There are forty-siX defendants.
 Coutts said that while in San Quen- tin prison, he had met Robert Connell- man. whom he had known as Dublin Bob" When Coutts was released from prison February II, 1917, he gained the habit of loafing around the I. w. w. headquarters in Oakland, and there had aided in assembling incendiary bombs, which. he said. were later taken to an ark in the San Joaquin river, near Stockton, where Councilman made his home.
 It was at this ark. Coutts said. that he met Edward Quigley. Caesar Tabib. Edward Anderson, Frank Elliott, Rob ert Feahan and Harry G. Brewer, all of whom are defendants. in court to- day, as he gave testimony against them

Coutts next related. he had gone to Turlock, California, and made his home at a house rented by Frank Elliott, and from there a wide spread campaign which included the destruction of haystacks, barns and farm buildings in Stanislaus county. was carried out. Coutts participated in this campaign, he said, and named Quigley, Tabib, Anderson, Elliott, Fea- han and Brewer. as also taking part
 1ncendiary bombs, phosphorous and chemicals of many sorts had been buried, he related. On October, 15, 1918, he said. he had guided members of the United States marshal's office to this cache. and he identified in court 1 today paraphernalia which the prose- cution had offered as exhibits. The arson squad as Coutts termed the men with whom he had worked, had been exceedingly active in the district around Salida, where haystacks came in for most attention, but later trans ferred their operations farther south in the San Joaquin valley and he re- counted fires in Fresno, Hanford and Denair, which he said members of his party had related to him that they had 1 started.
 Under cross examination Coutts re- fused to say he had been promised inn munity by the prosecution in return for his testimony, but declared that his motive lay in the fact ''he had two brothers in the United States uniform and that loyalty to hem prompted him to offer testimony against those whom he said had been plotting against the government.
