PEACE MOVEMENT
F! LEADERS TO MEET.
Woman's Unit Will Observe
goth Birthday Here This
Spring.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The American Women's Peace
Movement, which began here in 1919
under the darkening shadows Of war,
will celebrate its goth birthday
this Spring.
Thirty-nine of the 46 founders are
living, and are making preparations
to return to the Capital on May z IN
a year which has seen committees OF
both houses in Congress seeking
measures to mitigate or outlaw war.
One of the women who called the
first meeting Jane Adams OF Chl-
cago, will be the central flgure OF lne
celebration. She now is the honorary
international president Of the hundreoS
of women's peace groups which have
been formed in 25 countries.
5000 Answered First Call.
In answer to the call by Miss Ad-
dams and others 20 years ago 5000
persons. undaunted by the cannons
booming on European battletlelds, met
here to discuss a peace platform. 1t
included a plank for the removal OF
the economic causes of war. This
wear the House Military Affairs Com
mittee is meeting to discuss means Tor
removing the profits from war.
The Washington meeting in 1915
led to an international congress of
women at The Hague the same year
in April. Delegates from II nations
met there. In the 20 years since. peace
clubs have been organized in l3 other
nations. International headquarters
are established at Geneva, and inter-
national meetings have been held every
two years since.
The American group chose first to
call themselves the Women's Peace
Party. But a few years later the
name "Women's International League
for Peace and Freedom" was adopted
by all the clubs scattered about the
world.
List of Objectives.
The American branch points to the
following objectives, shared with other
groups in some cases, as parts OF its
longtime program: Freedom of the
Philippine Islands. policy advocated
by them since 1924; withdrawal of
the Marines from Haiti and Nicara
qua; declaration Of our Government
for the repeal of the Platt amendment;
recognition of the U. S. S. r., and
passage of the Nye-Vandenberg reso-
luton for an investigation Of the NUM-
tionS industry.
The American branch has worked
to expunge from American school text
books everything tending to contempt
or hatred for foreign peoples, to sub
stitute scientific physical education fol
military drill and to a spread of knowl-
edge of foreign literature as a basis
for wider understanding Of other ma
tionS.
Branches of the league in other
countries have been busy at their own
problems, and sometimes successful
The Toxic group has succeeded in
getting text books which laud peace
time heroes, such as Pasteur, in lieu
of the old-time worship of feudal and
military heroes.
Peace Pilgrimages Made.
In 1925 and succeeding years the
British section carried out peace
pilgrimage to small communities all
over the British Isles, educating the
people in the causes and results OF
wars.
The German section has campaigned
against carrying Of weapons by pri-
vate citizens, and in 1926 they made

Semitism and race prejudice; work
against the international drug traffic,
and efforts toward an international
charter for political prisoners.

EXPECTS
TRADE REVIVAL

WASHINGTON, Jan. 81. tPf-Sec-
rotary Hull. who is conducting an
attempt to revive international trade
through reciprocal treaties. now
takes the view that within a reason
able time America win recapture
a fair share of world business.
The contention at the state de-
partment is that satisfactory pro-
greSs has been made tn the past six
months. and that negotistors look
forward to the return OF normal
commercial relations with the cut
standing trading nations before the
end OF the year.
There was no immediate comment
at the department Monday ON criti-
cism of the Hull methods, voiced
Saturday by George ~. Peek. special
foreign trade adviser TO President
Roosevelt. Peek advocated major
changes on Hull's most-favored-
nation policy.
Under this policy. favors granted
one nation In bargaining negoti-
atoms are extended also to others.
Peek said this had failed in prac-
tice. The United States. he con-
tended, should adopt a policy Of
~selective imports and exports
through making individual ar
rangementS with individual nations,
country by country. rather than
through a horizontal reduction Of
our tariffs, either through tariff
legislation or generalizing tariff
concessions under the trade agree
ments act"
The last congress empowered Pres
icent Roosevelt to raise or lower
tariffs as much as 80 per cent in
negotiating trade agreements. Crit
icism has been heard i'm this con-
gress. but the state department Is
pressing ahead with preliminaries
TO trade talks with the next three
countries on the list = the Neither
lands, Finland and Italy.
Negotiations with Canada. this
country's second biggest customer
also are expected TO begin In the
near future, and studies are In pro-
gress as a prelude to active neRoti-
atoms with five or six other coun-
tries onetS-se good customers for

since last Hospital Day, 900 patients have been cared for at St. Ann's hospital and 10 babies have spent the first days of their life in Ju- neau in the attractive nursery. In addition to the 900 patients who have stayed at the hospital, 215 pa- tientS have been treated or had dressings administered. This is an increase of more than 100 patients over the previous year.
 Everyone is invited to attend the open house at the Hospital tomor- row and all will find a hospitable staff eager to demonstrate the var jed equipment and assist in inspec- ton of the many departments of the efficient institution.
 Last Hospital Day marked the opening of the fine new addition to the hospital and those who attend tomorrow will see many further improvements in the equipment. Residents are urged to visit the hos p.tal tomorrow and see that there is available for use for themselves and their loved ones, in case of need, an institution and experts trained to care of the sick as fine
