Labor Inaction Can Stop Wars
 Says Novelist

London-Maurice Hewlett, noted novelist, who is to visit America this Spring, has declared the League of Nations worth nothing" and comes out boldly as declaring that only Tabor inaction'' can prevent wars in the future.
 The next war, he declares, will be still more terrible than the last, for 1t is now a widely accepted axiom that war can 1esitimately be waged against non-combatants
 Hate now occupies mems inter estS all over the world in relations of nationality and class interest" Hew- lett declares.
 What have you to set up against that? Only the League of Nations. I have no desire to cav1 at the league, and I dare say that the es- tabEshment of a great talking house where at least war can be held up while they talk, is of certain value. But if it is not going to succeed the impede other things which might be successful.
 'eThe failure of the league was made plain when Lord Robert Cecil aid that the league would have pre- vented the war between Russia and Poland il the French had not taken sides with Poland.
 that, sooner or later, will rule the natons of the world; the class which always suffers most in wars. We must go to them not only in Eng land, but abroad, asking labor to prove it's capacity, it's humanity. La Dor has the power to ~para1yze n1iHtar- ism, and by direct inaction' can pre- vent war Once labor had done so no government would dare to risk war again.

ONLY ORIGINAL
 SEA-GOING-HACK
 FOUND IN CHINA

New York-Merchants who have been sending supplies to China's famine districts assert that they have discovered the worlds only genuine "sea-going hack" No memory, how ever, of the old four-wheelers which formerly pitched and rolled on the heavy ground swell of Broadway of a night is evoked by photographs of an authentic Chinese wheelbarrow which these exporters are exhibiting to prove their contention.
 This vehicle, often equipped with a jury mast and sail and manned by pilot who pushes as well as steers, tacks across country with cargoes which weigh as high as 200 pounds. A single Chinese skipper of one of these craft, letter says, can nav1- gate roads in the famine area with as heavy a load as a mule would want to pull, and at the end of the day S run his log will show as much as thirty miles covered.
 Relief workers sent out by the American Committee in Pek1n are forced in some cases to use these wheelbarrows. In such contingencies the number of passengers h"S to be even-that is, for proper ballast an equal number have to siL on each Slde of the barrow. These means of transport are being used wholesale by famine provinces.

WOMEN MAY RUN GOVERNMENT OF
 LITTLE LUNNON''

Colorado Spring, CoL-'LittIe Lunnon," as this wealthy little city at the foot of Pike's Peak is called, is '-threatened" with "petticoat city government
 Petitions for the nomination of nine prominent women are being circu- lated, among them Mrs. J. W. Ady, formerly Mrs. James Ferguson Burns, widow of the late millionaire mining man; Mrs. L.. A. Miller, pres ident of the Colorado Federation of Women'S Clubs, and Mrs C. H. Au1d secretary of that organization.
 Mrs. Lillian H. Kerr, of this city, who was active in Washington in the councils of the National Woman's Party, is credited with having launch ed the movement to have Colorado Springs governed by a council of women.
 The municipal election will be held early next month and present indica- tions are that the real issue at the polls will be a fight to determine whether men or women will conduct the city's affairs for the ensuing year.
 We believe that the women can give Colorado Springs good govern ment and that they will pay attention to business" Mrs. Kerr declared. teWe are in the fight to stay and we will organize all the club women, school teachers, sales1adies and every woman in the city"
 It is expected that if the women are successful in their efforts to gain con- trol of the City Council they will ap- point a member of their sex as city

MOTORISTS HAVE LICENSE HEARING
 } CASES HEARD

State Commissioner of Motor Ve- hicIes Robbins B. Stoecke1 held ses- sions in the coroner's court room yes terday, a large list being scheduled for hearing to show cause why their au- tonobile licenses should not be re- voked. At the morning session two Bridgeport parties were on the car- pet, and one from Noroton.
 Harry Snead, Kings Highway, Nor oton, appeared and was allowed a li- cense after hearing facts of a fatal collision in which he figured. Louis ChafkHn, 139 Lee avenue, was allow ed to secure a new license, after be- ing given a few tips that will keep him out of trou b4e in the future if he follows them, and invite him into trouble if he negIects them.

Repeat Showing
 Of Great Picture

The Stream of Life, which Mr. J. L. Hof, Editor Motion Picture World, New York, says is ga new note in pictures equally as great as Griffith's Birth of a Nadon,' which was shown at the Y.. NJ c. A., Sunday afternoon, three weeks ago, will be repeated by request of the men who then saw it. Because this picture is not offered commercially andTcannot be seen in the regular theatres the Y. M. c. A. is inviting first the Y. w.. c. A. and then other ladies in the city, Sunday afternoon at 3:30.
 A year ago, during Lent, the Cen tenary Movement of New York city presented the Stream of Life each noon in the Ria1to and the picture packed this theatre. A. R. Parkhurst, 25 years with the New York Sun, said, Not only the most beautiful picture ever shown, but the most powerful sermon ever heard on Broadway All men and women over sixteen years of age are invited to see this beau

the matter will be delayed. This idea. or similar ideas, are being adopted in many places. and are in actual successful operation in a large number of others On the other hand many contend that Stratford has made progress the old way.
 But then again there are few, if any, who will admit that the present town meeting idea is out of date. Even if the council-manager plan does not go over the top tonight it may bear fruit and give benefit to the town by hastening a change to some thing, at least little better than the present method Stratford voters can decide The question has had all possible publicity. The meeting is open to all voters, and has been way your sentiment lies, it's up to you to be among those present with an ave or nay.

 ~Tonight's the night" The special town meeting will come to order at o'clock sharp. It is essential that every person having the right to a vote in Stratford make himself or herself heard at the meeting. There are many lined up on both sides of the fence, which is natural There are several other elements to be con- however.
 There are some who don't care one way or another, who feel that it will be all the same a hundred years from now no matter which way the wind blows. Maybe So-maybe not. Then there is still another crowd that feel that the present system is out of date, but are not sure that the plan pro- posed, in the present form, is just the thing either. This influence at the town meeting may be swayed either way.
 This is one time that no one part of the town is arrayed against an- other- Each part of the community seems equally divided in sentiment.
