to Watch Over Wall Street Men
Action Follows Threats Made
by Radicals.

ditional patrolmen, personally selected
by Chief Inspector Lahey after con-
ference with Police Commissioner En-
right, were distributed throughout the
financial district to guard tinanciers
and financial Institutions.
While official announcement was
lacking at police headquarters, it was
understood this action was taken be-
cause of threats alleged to have been
made at recent secret meetings of
radicals At the same time the detec-
tive force in the Wall street district
was greatly increased.
Coincident with the announcement
that the police squad in the financial
district had been greatly REINFORCED,
it became known that Commissioner
of immigration Wallis at Ellis Island
had received information from agents
of the Dutch government that "bolshe-
visit agitators are heading for Alnerl-
ca" attempting to bride members of
crews to gain their admittance either
as seamcn or stoWawayS.

a permanent detail. Not only will its
members stand guard over the sub
treasury, stock exchange and banks
and brokerage houses, but it will keep
a protecting eye on prominent wall
street figures and also watch messen-
gers as they carry millions in securi-
ties through the streets.
Special instructions issued to "the
flower Of the force" to permit no park
ing of vehicles served to recall the
death wagon" which figured so pro-
minently in the Wall street explosion
last September, in which nearly two
score persons were killed and 80 in
jured 1t was in this wagon that a
bomb was believed to have been
placed.

inquired if the Vanderbilts were home,
and when told they were not said it
was "a good thing" because they
would have no home when they re-

Doctrine Unless America

Paris, Nov. Recommending edi-
torially on the approaching assembly
of the League of Nations at Geneva,
Switzerland, the Temps says:
''As we ignore the intentions of the
future American President, how can
continental disarmament be dis
cussed? No one knows whether the
United States, with their enormous re-
sources, would interfere or not in or
der to avoid a new 1914.
How can naval disarmament be
discussed? The nations Of Europe and
of the Far East would seem to be
forming coalition under the inspira-
ton of Great Britain to enjoin the
United States not to construct any
more warships The discussion would
only succeed in poisoning the situa-
ton and giving the appearance OF an
anti-American policy to which France
could never subscribe.
France Favors Disarmament.
France cannot be suspected as op-
posed to disarmament, as was proved
by the amendment which Leon Bour-
geois proposed to add to article s of
the covenant when the Versailles
treaty was drafted, but we must real
iZe that disarmament is not a Ques-
tion which may be dealt with behind
the backs of the Americans.
1.-THE future activities of the League
of Nations will be closely limited,
owing to the absence of the United
States, but on the other hand the
United States cannot remain absent
from an international organization
embracing practically the whole of
the world.

American republics, Peru and Bolivia,
