UNIVERSAL DISARMING
ADVOCATED BY OBREGON
By the Associated Press.


MEXICO CITY. November 11;-Gen.
Alvaro Obregon, President Of Mexico,
this evening issued a statement con-
cernine universal disarmament, which
he describes as thing not to be
postponed any longer" The presi-
dent also discusses the washington
conference on Limitation OF armament
and far eastern questions. The state
ment, which is said to represent the
Mexican official viewpoint on dlsar-
mament, follows, in part:
"IJniyersal disarmament, considered
in the past as only an ideal, to the
attainment a of which many great men
have devoted all their efforts, has now
become an urgent necessity ana can
rot be postponed longer for the sim,
pie reason that modern armies ana
the heaviest burden under "nlcn
mankind now staggers.
"That part Of the community Whlcn
il constituted by men who work ana
produce daily is losing strength,
weakening it's energies and EXHAUST
ing its patience, there being an un-
due excess in the number OF con
voted to destruction In all its forms.
conditions such as these have ere.
ated q state of disturbance which, II
II is not soon remedied, inevitably
will lead to a fearful catastrophe.
The only lesson which the world war
has taught US il that the age OF brute
force has passed forever; that mans
be found in the realms Of ethics and
science, and that it is necessary to
devote to these fields all that vast
expenditure Of mental and physical
energy now absorbed in the creation
Of armies"

LABOR DEMONSTRATION
FAVORS ARMS PARLEY
Central Labor Union Addressed by
Prominent Speakers Urging
Support of Limitation.

Insecurity of position of the "com-
mercial axpansionists and defenders
Of militarism" was pointed out as an
additional reason why future warfare
would not be as popular as were con-
fiicts preceding the world war by
Central Labor Unions public demon
stration in favor Of limitation of
armament at the Central High School
auditorium last night.
THE world is beginning to realize
that victory in modern warfare is as
costly to the people Of the victorious
nation as defeat would have been,"
our commercial expansionists and de-
tenders Of militarism that when the
next war comes, moreover, they can
not say I will be exempt from dan
ger. In future wars they cannot as
sumo their usual role Of dollar pa
triots with the knowledge that they
will be safe from harm while men die
on the battlefield"
Senator Kenyon Of Iowa delivered
an address in which he advocated
fullest publicity at the sessions Of
the conference for Limitation of arma-
ment.
II hope that the proce edings of tho
conference" he said. will be abso-
lutely public, that all the cards will
be laid on the table. We have had
enough to do with secret intrigues
Of diplomats in the past. And 1
hope that for once in it's existence
the Congress Of the United States
will keep still and give the delegates
to the conference a chance to show
what they are going to do, and also
that the newspapers Of the country
will do the same"
Other speakers were Frank Duffy,
president of the International Broth
erhood OF Carpenters and Joiners;
Mrs. Edward P. Costigan and John
B. Colpoys, who presided and deliv-
cred the opening address.

BY PAUL. SCOTT MOwRER.

Members Of foreign delegations to
the Washington conferences have been
studying with the greatest interest
certain ideas which they tend to re-
gard as the basis Of Americas present
political psychology. Among these
ideas they have noted the following:
That foreign policy and national in
terests abroad are properly to be re-
garded as weapons of party politics.
That legislators, lawyers and busi-
ness men can probably conduct for
eign affairs better than trained diplo-
mats can.
That the reactions of the conference
delegates will be different, somehow.
in Washington, from what they would
be had the conference convened In
London or Paris or Toxic
That it Is better to try to settle mo-
mentous and complicated interna-
tional questions by some kind of
quick action than by some slower
and more cautious procedure.
That the United States is distin-
guished. among the nations, by its
honesty and frankness and by the
purity of it's motives.
That economic interests abroad can
be divorced from political interests.
That Americans. although of Euro
pean stock. are somehow different, in
heart and mind. from the rest of the
white race.

BERLIN, Germany, November H.
Will the Washington conference con-
slider Germany's plight? That is the
supreme question being asked by the
country's financiers, industrialists
and other leading men on the eve of
the world congress called by Presi-
dent Harding. Although a better
country than Austria, Poland or Rus
sia, Germany sees herself on the
verge Of the abyss into which these
three countries have fallen as tho re-
suit Of the war.
Germany hopes that common sense
will dictate the resolutions Of the
conference in Washington and that
this same common sense will make II
clear to former foes and neutrals that
the complete ruin Of such q country
as Germany cannot come about with
out having a telling effect upon the
economic life and political alliances
OF the other world powers.
with her railroads better organ
lied than those of any other country
IN Europe and with fewer unem-
ployed than any other country in the
world, Germany cannot conceive it
possible that her money should drop
en- a par with the Austrian crowns
and Polish marks. which have be.
mind them nothing like Germany's de-
sire to work hard and pay the war
indemnity. Yet this has happened.
German newspapers give great
credit to President Harding for hav-
Ing forced Britain. France and japan
to show their hands at the WashinR-
ton conference. Theodor wolff, the
famous publicist, In the Berlin TaEe-
blatt, congratulates the President on
taving chosen this time SO soon after
the war for q conference ana COM
pelling the allied countries to send
their chiefs to Washington.
There are some Germans who are
optimistic as to the outcome of the
conference and who believe that the
Pacific problem will be solved. They
think that ways will be found to solve
the other problems which are now
troubling the world, including that
Of Germany's future. These persons.
however. are in the minority:

AMERICAN ARMS FOR DEFENSE,

That whereas foreign armies and
navtes are possibly weapons Of ag-

That navies reduced proportionately
to a smaller size will thereby become
less belligerent than the same navies
proportionately larger.
That lobbying and private dealing,

That if sessions are closed not even

That If the conference fails. 1t will
