EMMA GOLDMAN HAS ENOUGH
Rather Be In Prison in America Than
Free in Russia

Our esteemed DIR. w. E. Butt once
used in this paper the classic phrase
1.-THE Best News Since Judas Died"
and never to our idea has it applied
more fittingly than to the recent utter
ance by the notorious anarchist, EN-
ma Goldman, to the effect that she
would rather be in prison in America
than free in Russia" For the last
quarter century Goldman has ranted
all over these United States GUESSING
and damning every institution in the
country which has been instrumental
in making this nation supremely great.
Her battle cry has been Down with
capitalism. She has had the privil-
ege for few months of living in a
country whose present condition she
has helped to create-a country where
'the capitalistic reign has been over
thrown and the common man reigns
supreme" She has found, as is al
ways the case, that with the over
throw of capital has come the almost
total abolition of constitutional gov
eminent, and famine, massacre, rape
and ruin now rule. Goldman would
rather be in prison here than in free
dom there. Don't YOU suppose her
conscience troubles her bit when she
thinks of her years of endeavoring to
reduce the United States to the un-
happy condition of Russia?
Her statement quoted above was
made in a letter to the United States
officials begging them to permit her
return to this country. She will re-
turn as repentant sinner, if she is per
mitted to, and like Paul who went
down to Damascus to prosecute the
Christians and came back one, her tes-
timony of what she has seen and ex-
perienced should have a decidedly So
bering effect upon the radical elements
in our country.

LENRooT FORCES ARMY cur
Senate Passes Resolution to Reduce
Army from 213.000 to 10000

Following is a stirring debate by
Senator Lenroot and upon motion by
him, the senate passed a resolution to
reduce the standing army to 10000.
Present strength is about 213,06o.
Pershing and Baker strongly opposed
the cut. The measure has not yet
been brought up in the house. Sena-
tor LaFollette voted with Lenroot on
this proposition.
We strongly commend Lenroot's
stand. A world or a nation prepared
for war insures the continuance of war.
Reduction of armament is a means TO
the end of perpetual peace. Interna-
tiOnal disarmament is the perfect cure
to end the wasteand the horror of war.
Later: The senate and house placed
the size of the standing army at
us 600.
