PLAN CLOSER union
Movement to Draw English
Speaking Peoples Together.
First Branch Of Union 10 Be Estab-
Iished in America Is in
Philadelphia.

Washingt0n.--ll Is the general feel
Ing that the foundation on which the
proposed League OF Nations must be
built is complete understanding aud
friendly cooperation between The two
great Englislrspeaking peoplrs; that
on the Americans and the British will
fall largely the task of making The
world safe for democracy. Realizing
fhis. IA group Of Americans and Brit.
ishers have started II movement 10
draw The English-speaking peoples Of
thc world closer together IN the bopid
Of comradeship and have organized
The English-Speaking Union.
The aim of the union Is. briefly, 10
make the Englsh-speaking peoples Of
the world better known TO each other,
whether they be Americans. Austria
llans. Canadians, New ZcaIanders,
South Africans Newfoundlanders or
the inhabitants of the British isles
and their dependencies. II does not
aim ut formal alliances, nor Is 1t con-
cerned with the relationship of govern
ments; II is solely and simply n good
fellowship movement among the pco-
pie ''who speak the tongue that Shake
spcare spake."
Tho aim OF the promoters, American
aud British. Is that no citizen of the
Engllsh-speaking world should ever
feel lonely again after the war, that no
American visiting the old country
should ever want friend, and that no
Britlsher should ever want one In the
great republic. They plan TO make
these peoples better known TO each
other in various ways--hy the inter
change of visits, by correspondence, by
the printed word by lectures, by an
interchange of professors and preach
ers. by sporting contests and by every
other possible means.
II was Admiral Sims who said the
other day that III only an interchange
Of 100000 young men from our leading
schools on both sides of the Atlantic
could he made annually there would
be no possibility of future misunder-
standings between us. In % per cent
Of the things that matter the English
speaking peoples, whether they come
from the United States, from the Brit
ish dominlons In the far antipodes, or
from the mother country, have the
same outlook. the same ideals, the
same conceptions Of right and wrong,
the same laws, the same literature. II
is only in the remaining 3 per cent OF
superficial things that they differ.
The first branch Of the English
Speaking Union to be established in
America Is in Philadelphia and the
first European branch Is iu London.
It's monthly magazine already has
been started.

Allies to Demand
Yes or No AnslUer



The Poles have raised strategical
argument against the ALLEGATION of up
per Silesia to Germany. It is pointed
out that the frontier, as originally
drawn, left deep slice Of German ter
ritory cutting in between Poland and
Czecho Slovakia, and that the addition
of upper Silesia would extend this ton
mage Of land, from which the German
armies could operate effectively between
the two new states.
NJ. Poska. the foreign minister OF
Esthonia, arrived in Paris yesterday to
ask the great powers to aid the small
Esthonian army which is fighting the
Bolshevists southwest Of Petrograd. He
will have conference with the Council
of Four.
The British correspondents in Paris
have begun an investigation as to why
the first dispatches regarding the dis
cussion of the necessity of peace treaty
changes by the Council of -Four were
held up for thirteen hours. The dis
patches reached the newspapers too late
for publication in the current issues.

URGE MILDER PEACE
Entente Report ShoUs the
Strength of Movement

Washington, June 6.-The alarm
ing strength and revolutionary direc-
tion of the French Socialists, revealed
in their recent national congress, which
is the subject of an official Entente re
port obtained here yesterday, throws
light on the attitude of the French
workers toward the peace treaty with
Germany and the proposed league of
nations, both of which were denounced
by the Socialists. the first as being i'm
pcrialistic and capitalistic, the second
as a league of capitalists.
The electoral program adopted is de-
clared to be distinctly revolutionary
in character" pronouncing openly in
favor of class warfare, revolution and
the dictatorship of the proletariats. "
1t was signed by members Of the old
majority, such as NJ. NJ. Thomas and
Renaudel. as well as by the representa- =
tives of the present majority. It was
passed by nearly 1400 votes, as against
a little less than 300 given to a more
sweeping program and 245 cast for that
of the extremists. Resolutions were
adopted deciding that all candidates
who desire the support of the party
organization must aQnere SIrlCIly 10 1t
no compromise, no sort of coalition with
other parties is to be tolerated: no joint
lists of radicals and Socialists will be
permitted.
VictOrs Condemn Absentees
As affecting the international situa
ton, the peace negotiations and the
league of nations, the motion on the
general policy of the party" pre-
sented by NJ. Faurc on behalf of the
majority. obtained 9G2 votes. against
232 of the Extremists, but there were
7S9 abstentions by Ceutrists and former
majoritarians. these latter being de-
nounced by the victors. who interpreted
abstention to mean political impotence.
The victorious motion proclaims that
the war was caused by the capitalistic
governments of Europe, condemns the
French governmental leaders, who told
the rank and file that France was fight
ing for freedom, and in order to de =
stroy militarism sweeps aside with con
tempt the league of nations, holds out
hand to the German republic, stigma :
tics and rejects the peace treaty, lauds
the Bolsheviki, condemns intervention
in Russia, calls'for warfare against the
bourgeosie and appeals to the revolu :
tionary force of the proetariat.

Mr. Kingsbury said the heading" on
the announcement by the Postoffice d..

son order returned the wires to private
control was misleading and that sucn
was not the effect of the order.
The first effect of the postmaster gen

kamp, international president of the
Telegraphcrs' Union, to call strike
against the Western Union Telegraph
Company in the southeastern states.
Konenkamp last night dictated the fol =,
lowing statement:
''The action of Mr. Burleson in re :
storing operating control to the execu =
tives of the telegraph and telephone
