peace efforts the British people may be said to be getting just about what they voted for. British post war conditions have been bad enough to cause a political revolu- ton. Macdonald was a hated pacl- fist 10 or 12 years ago and the La borites or Socialists whom he led have always had a strong peace pol icy. So when British voters gave Macdonald and his party plurality they were well aware that their new government probably would go to great lengths on behalf of world peace. They knew that peace was importantly dependent on Anglo American relations and that Mac Donald would adopt a more friendly policy than had the existing Tory government.
 Americas peace moves are not inspired directly from the people. It happened that the voters were will ing to elect a Quaker and man who considered war to be so much waste. Hoover's campaign utterances how ever, were attacked as too miltaristlc by some peace advocates. But Hoov- CT as president is a product of de mocracy and here he is proposing armament reduction, calling off work on new cruisers, demanding reduction of military expenditures and feeding all kinds of tidbits to the peace dove.
 War Leaders Are Out
 All the old war governments are long since gone. At home the Demo- crats haven't been able to climb back in. In Russia they have the anti thesis of the Czarist government. In England Lloyd George. the wartime premier, commands only a small mi nority and Macdonald. the pacifist. is on top of the heap. Germany's war lords are gone, and Austria's Italy has a new type of government In France the peaceful Briand, hero of Locarno and originator of the

SOCIALISTS AGREE WITH CAPITALISTS
Movement Toward Peace Brings
 Factions Together at Last
NEA Service

Washington, Aug. S-Probably for the Socialists and the Capitalists as they call everyone clse-are all agreed on the same thing.
 The Communist government of i Russia, the Socialist government of England and our own government meet on common ground when it comes to reducing armaments. The Soviets got nowhere at all when they proposed to complete world wide dis armament to the League of Nations now enjoy the sight of the rest of | the world stepping in that direction, led by President Hoover and Prem- fer Ramsay Macdonald,
 Russia does not enter into the pie ture so much except for her initi- ation of the complete disarmament idea, which caused the other nations to laugh or scold to hide their em- barrassment and her part in a re- cent dem onstration that things arc
 
 stration came out of her row with China.
 A Good Cause for War
 In the old days China's railway seizure would have been good for a war any old time. But Russia. instead of going to war, agreed to be peaceful and 10 that extent at least confirmed the sincerity of her disarmament proposals. What made Russia S pacifism look so good was her respect for the Kellogg peace treaty before Secretary of State Stimson or anyone publicly re- mipded her of her adherence.
 The many recent developments favorable to the world peace ideal may be taken by historians as proof that popular government. or de- mocracy, is a strong deterrent to war
 Russia's war sufferings made upset the Czarist government. The soldiers, workers and peasants just decided that they weren't going to have any more of that war and when the Soviet Union was cstab- lished one of its strongest tenets was that war was an instrument of the capitalist class which invaria- bly, brought great suffering to the masses and hence ought to be abol- ished, Since that time Russia has been distrusting the rest of the world because of it's attempts to invade and destroy her and the rest of the world has been distrusting Russia because of her propaganda for reVo- lutions everywhere else,
 All of which hasn't helped the world peace ideal. Nevertheless Russia claims 10 be a government of the workers and farmers and unalterably opposed to aggressive
 war. so if one accepts those claims at face value one finds that history most radical experiment in popular i government produced a government
 which led all the rest in renouncihe
 war as an instrument of national po- ! Hey.
