There is only one way to assure the
world of peace" the president declared,
'and that is by making it so dangerous
to break the peace that no other nation
will have the audacity to attemupt it"
The president warned his hearers not
to be deceived into supposing that i'm
perialistic schemes end with the defeat
of Germany or that Germany was the
only nation that entertained such
schemes or was moved by sinister am
bitions and long standing jealousies to
attack the very structure of civilization. =
There are other nations said the
president. which are likely to be pow
erfuIly moved or are already moved by
commercial jealousy, by the desire to
dominate and to have their own way in
politics and in enterprise and 1t is neces-
sary to check them and to appraise them
that the world will be united against
them as it was against Germany If they
attempt any similar things"
In a formal statement issued after
they left the White House, members Of
the delegation said they were deeply
touched by the physical appearance of
the president, who received them sitting
and plainly showed the effects of his long
illness and the tremendous strain which
he has been carrying"
"He read from q manuscript his reply
to the address of the deputation," the
statement continued, "and was greatly
moved as he didfso. More than once his
voice choked especially when he referred
to the soldier boys and the mothers of
those who had fallen in battle"
''It was evident that he was voicing
the profoundest emotions of his heart"

sion was inexpressibly solemn and ten

MINERS UPSET
AGREEMENT To
SETTLE STRIKE
British Commons Rushes
Emergency Bill When
/ Plans Are Changed.

London, Oct. 27.-(By the Associated
Press A new difficulty has arisen. de-
laying the complete settlement Of the
coal strike which Wednesday afternoon
was believed to have been attained on
the basis of an increase in the miners
wages as set forth in the earlier an
nouncement. That the difficulty is ser
tious is indicated by the fact that the cab
inet has been summoned to meet early
z Thursday morning before the conference
Of the miners and government officials
reassembles. At the last moment the
miners presented a new demand which
compelled adjournment of the conference
with the representatives Of the govern
ment. Nothing has yet developed as to
the nature of the miners new demand.
The policy of secrecy regarding the
Iagreement continued to be maintained
Bbut apparently the objection of the min
crs was due to the fear that the agree
ment as drafted might have the effect
Of making permanent the application of
the principle that wages are depedent on
output and also to the idea that it might
altogether preclude further nationalza-
tion.
The government emergency bill which
provides for all contingencies in the
event the miners strike should involve
the railway and transportation workers
was rushed through all IFS remaining
stages Wednesday and passed the third
reading, which is final. The vote was
238 to So
The bill did not have the smooth pas
sage the government hoped for. 1t
passed through the committee stage but
the government had to make further con-
cessions to the demands Of the labor
party.
The bill now provides that nothing
in the act shall be construed as author
izing the proclamation of any form of
compulsory military duty or industrial
.conscription or make it an offense for
any person to participate in a strike or
peacefully persuade any other person to
participate in a strike.

ATTAIN INQUIRY
COURT IS TOLD .
Of MISTAKES
Board is Informed That
Number Natives Killed
is Exaggerated.

Washington, Oct 27.-Public investi-
cation of the conduct of American ma
rlnes in Haiti was begun Wednesday by
the special naval court of inquiry. with
the examination of Brigadier General
George Barnett, former commandant of
the marine corps. and Major Edmund n
Mcclellan of the corps historical divi-
sion. The first session lasted only Il
little more than an hour and while the
court will meet again Friday, no further
witnesses have vet been summoned.
General Barnctt told the court that
his charge of 'indiscriminate killing of
natives in Haiti which prompted the
inquiry had been based on the record
of the court martial of two marine corps
privates. Walter e. Johnson and John J.
McQuilkin. Jr He corrected a previ-
Gus announcement that a total of $3.50
natives had been killed in action or
otherwise during the five years Of Amer
lean occupation of the republic, explain
ing that an error in addition made in
the historical section of the corps re-
suited in this announcement. He had
learned since, he said. that the total
was 2,250.
The witness explained that the large
casualty list last year was due to attacks
Prince and to the campaign conducted
i'll the hills
General Barnett said he wanted it
made clear that his letter of last wear
to Colonel John H. Russell, in which the
reference was made to ''indiscriminate
killing" Of natives. was based only on
the trial Of Privates Walter Johnson
and John McQuilin. Jr. He said how
ever, that the statement of counsel and
testimony in those cases so shocked him
that he had directed further investiga-
ton. He reiterated that by "indiscrim-
mate killing" he had not meant 'prolnis-
cuous" killings. but rather executions
