TROOPS RULE GLASGOW
HIGH OFFICIALS AMONG THOSE
WOUNDED IN STRIKE RIOTS.
TWO Leaders Of Mobs Are Arrester-
Forty Persons Injured
Shops Looted.

Glasgow, Feb Thousands of
troops have arrived here, and sentries
with fixed bayonets are stationed at
strategic points about the city. Every
thing is quiet.
Councillor Shipwell, one Of the strike
leaders in the Clyde district, was ar
rested today.
London, Feb. Troops arrived dur
ing the night at Glasgow, where there
were serious strike disorders, accord
ing to the Daily Mirror.
Glasgow, Feb. SERIOUS conflicts
between the police and strikers de-
veloped, in which at least 40 persons
were more or less badly injured,
among them Sheriff Mackenzie, Chief
Constable Stevenson, Deputy Consta-
BILE Rehnie, and number of police
men. These were all injured by bot
ties thrown by strikers when the po-
lice were clearing the streets in baton
charges. Two of the strike leaders,
William Gallagher and David Kirk
wood, were arrested and charged with
melting to riot. Both are still incus-
sody.
During the height of the disorders
the riot act was read and it was con-
templated to invoke military aid, but
he order was Cancelled when Gallagher
and Kirkwood were permitted by the
authorities to address the strikers and
exhort them to march off in orderly
procession, as nothing more could be
done.
Despite this advice, however, there
were wild scenes of disorder and in
various parts of the city footing was
INDUCED in. Goods to the value of
$4,000 were stolen from one jewelry
shop, while other shops were pillaged.
At night dense crowds again gath
cred before the city hall. The police
charged several times and dispersed
the crowds with their batons.
All the trade unions in Scotland are
expected to be represented at a con-
ference in Glasgow tomorrow to con-
slider a resolution supporting the strike
and calling upon the government to
enact 4O-hour week law. 1t is said
that the conference intends to organ
ize a national strike.

GERMANY MUST PAY
Hun Ships Should Replace Vessels
Sunk by U-Boats.
MUST PAY AND PAY AND PAY
Stolen Machinery Being Used by the
German Factories, Together With
Destroyed Property, Must
Be Replaced.
BY WRIGHT 4. PATTERSON.

More than two million American sol
diers crossed the Atlantic that they
might help fight the battle Of civiliza-
ton and defeat the selfish ambitions
Of the people OF the German nation.
4 crossed the ocean in convoy which
carried some thirty thousand of these
men, and for nearly fourteen days it
was my privilege to share with them
the dangers Of the sea and the dam
gers of the German submarines. I saw
these men crowded into the hold Of
small ships that they might the more
quickly go to the rescue of that civili-
zatiOn for which we were fighting; I
saw them as they were tossed about
by the terrific seas driven by gales that
hour; I saw them die of exposure as
the seas beat in upon them; saw their
bodies consigned to the waters Of the
broad Atlantic: in the convoy with
which crossed one Of the ships went
down in the storm, carrying with it
nearly five hundred of these Ameri-
can soldiers.
And these things happened because
the German people had run amuck,
driven to it by a selfish ambition for
world domination and loot.
Are these people to escape a just
retribution? Are they to escape pay
ment?
saw in Europe the mourning rel
atives of women and children who
had persisted in the Irish sea because
Of the depredations of a German u
boat. These women and children were
travelling in a merchant ship on peace
full errands, but they were sent to
their deaths without warning, and
without any opportunity of being
saved.
Must Pay for Many Crimes.
Should the people who were respon-
sible for these deaths of women and
children escape without punishment
for their crimes?
That civilization which defeated the
Huns will demand that Germany pay

for the crimes committed on sea and
land. She must pay for the lives and
the ships lost at sea, and she must pay
for the terrible destruction ofslives and
property she caused on land.
But how shall Germany pay? She
has not the money now with which to
replace the ships or rebuild the French
and Belgian cities and towns or re-
place the machinery and other valu-
able property she has stolen.
But Germany has ships and prop
erty and labor, and with these she
can pay part. Germany's ships
should be given to the neutral nations
to replace those the German U-boats
destroyed. Germany should be forced
to recompense these nations ton for
ton SO far as her merchant marine will
accomplish that. Germany's ship yards
and German labor should be forced to
build more ships with which to replace
the merchant vessels Of both neutral
and allied nations sunk by German
submarines.
German labor should be put to work
under guard of allied troops in the
fields of France and Of Belgium that
these fields may again be put under
cultivation. Germany has for genera
lions called her youth to the colors
for training as soldiers, and with these
soldiers she has attempted to destroy
the freedom of the world. Let her con-
tinue to call her youth to the colors,
but instead Of having guns put in
their hands let them be put behind the
plow in Belgium and France that they
may remove the unexploded shells with
which these once fertile fields are
sown. Germany is responsible for the
condition of these fields, and the Ger
man people should be forced to accept
the hazards of their reclamation.
Let the German youth, paid by Ger

YANKEE TROOPS HOLD REDS
BoIsheviki Fail in Their Attack on the
American Positions on Dvina
River.

Archangel, Jan. 80 Bolshevik
forces failed in an attempt at mid.
night to drive American and British
troops from their positions at Tulgas
on the Dyina river, southeast of Arch
angel. Earlier the enemy had bonn
barded the positions with artillery.
On the right bank of the river the
American troops met a small enemy
patrol and drove it back. On the left
bank the allies encountered $50 boil
sheyiki in awood early in the morning
and dispersed them. The allies suf-
fered no casualties.
The prisoners said that general at-
tack had been planned, but majority
of the bolsheviki lost themselves in. the

man money, be assigned the task of
rebuilding the destroyed cities and
towns and villages so far as that can
be done. Germany was able to do
without the constructive labor of mil
lions Of her men while they were en-
gagged In destroying these cities, towns
and villages, and now let her continue
to do without this constructive labor
while her men rebuild that which they
have so wantonly destroyed. Ger
many's men have been satisfied to
work at the destructive trade of the
soldier for the meager pay of Ger
man soldier, and now let them be en-
ployed at constructive work in the sec
lions they have destroyed, for the
same meager pay, and this to be paid
by Germany.
The German people have stolen from
Belgium and France much of the ma
chinery and other valuable and port
able property they found In the invad-
ed districts. Much OF the stolen ma
chinery is running today In German
factories, and with it the German peo-
pie are earning livelihood while the
people Of Belgium and northern France
are idle because Of a lack OF oppor-
tunity. German employers are pre-
pared to reap a trade harvest as soon
as they are again allowed to enter the
field of world trade because they have
this machinery. With it they can cap
ture the markets that have been held
by the French and Belgian employers.
who have been put out Of business by
the depredations of Germany.
The immediate return of this stolen
machinery and other property should
be forced, and where its return is not
possible it should be replaced with
equivalent machinery from German
factories, and the machinery and prop
erty destroyed should be replaced in
the same way just SO far as that is
possible.
Force Payment for All Damage.
These methods willApay but small
part of the debt of the Geramn peo-
pie to the world, but they will aid in
some degree in undoing what the Huns
have SO ruthlessly done. Along with
these should be money compensation
for the nations that have suffered SO
cruelty at the hands of the German
nation and the German people. A mon
ey compensation the payment of which
should be extended over a period of
many, many years, that not only the
present, but future generations of the
German people may learn, from the
effort that is needed to pay, that self
ish wanton war is improbable.

BIG ARMY and
NAVY PLAN WINS
Secretary Daniels BattIeship
Program Approved; u S. viii
Spend $75O,0O0,o0O.
TO BUILD TEN CAPITAL CRAFT
House Unanimous in Accepting Admin
istration Plan-Arny Of 100000
Decided Upon by Military
Committee as Basis.

Washington, Feb. 3.-Unanimous
approval eff the administrations new
three-year naval program with the
number of capital ships reduced from
sixteen to ten because of differences
among experts over the value Of bat
tie cruisers was voted by the house
naval committee.
An army Of 100000 men was unani-
mously decided on by the house mill
tary committee as the basis for deter
mining the appropriation for army pay
for the year beginning next July.
Committee members said the number
was expected to be the average force
during the year.
The navy program is for the three
years beginning with next July. Chair
man Padgett in announcing the COM
mittee's action said the annual appro-
priation bill carrying $750,000,000 was
approved, including $169,O0O,O0O to be
spent during the year under the new
program.
In addition to the ten battleships, to
to cost not over $21,O0O,OO0 each, the
program as adopted provides for ten
scout cruisers to cost up to 100000
each.
The committees action was the first
formal indication of the attitude of
congress toward the navy depart
ment's policy of expansion unless the
peace conference decides on world dis
armament. Expansion has been urged
by Secretary Daniels and high officers
of the navy The committee adopted
the suggestion Of Secretary Daniels
that construction be authorized with
the provision that it might be stopped
by the president if international agree
ment made world disarmament GER
tainty.
The decision of the military COM
mittee marked the beginning of the
committees work of framing the an
nual military appropriation bill. Mem
bers said it had no bearing on per1pa-
nent future military policy, and that
while pay was figured for half-mil-
lion men, it did not follow that APP
preparations for various branches of
services would be such as to provide
for an army actually organized as a
permanent force of that size.
During the earlier part of the year,
it was said, the army was expected to
exceed the half-million mark, but
would be reduced below that number
with rehabilitation. Although no
final decision was reached by the COM
mittee, it appeared that no effort would
be made to outline permanent army
reorganization plan at this session of
congress.

Friendship.

No one is so poor as the person who
is going through life without friends.
None of US needs to be in this sad
plight, for all around US are those who
need love and sympathy for
whom we can make life less difficult
And that is what friendship means:
spending oneself for those one loves
and asking nothing in return. 1t is
"only he who is unwilling to love with
out being loved" who is likely to feel
that there is no such thing as true
friendship.
