FELON
SEEKS JAIL

ELLICOTT CITY, Md, Jan. 25.
If not "honor among thieves" :"
there is at least honor among
prisoners in the Ellicott City jail,
Warden Day has discovered.
Earlier in the week three
prisoners managed to escape from
the antiquated Jail. Clarence
Sherman was one of them. A
short time later Warden Day was
surprised to receive a telephone
call.
Clarence Sherman speaking.
I want to come back. Come and
get me. 1t was a dirty trick"
Lacking carfare to return to
Ellicott City after a short car ride,
Sherman waited at a designated
spot until his captors arrived,
showing every evidence of con-
triton. Warden Day greeted him
like a father.

WOMEN ADOPT
5-PO|NT PEACE
PROGRAM
Concessions in War Debts and
AdheranCe to League
Court Are Urged

More than 1000 women repre-
senting powerful nationwide Or
ganizations today adopted a five
point program designed to bring
permanent peace to the nations of
the world.
The program was adopted by
the tenth annual conference on
the Cause and Cure of War in its
final days session at the Hotel
Washington.
The highlights of the program
urged the reopening of negotia-
tions regarding the war debt to
effect a definite settlement in a
spirit Of willingness to make sub
stantial concessions" and United
States adherence to the League
Court.
Emphasis on Diplomacy
Strengthening of the Depart
ment of State in an effort to place
more emphasis on the diplomatic
settlement of International grleV-
ances was also advocated.
The women also went on record
for a plan to make military train
ing in civil schools elective rather
than compulsory and indorSing
the United States proposal for the
international control of the manu-
facture and trade in arms.
Increasing cooperation with the
League of Nations and a clarifica.
ton of the United States position
regarding the League were recon-
mended as vital steps toward in
surance of world peace.
Issues General Policy
Lastly, the conference an
nounced general policy as fol-
lows:
1--WE affirm our belief in the
democratic processes as
fundamental basis for peace;
we recognize as inherent prin-
ciples of democracy, not only
the rights of the individual to
freedom of thought, freedom of
speech, freedom of action, but
also the responsibility of the
individual to exercise inteIli-
gently their rights and privi-
legeS."
Speaking of 1.-The Technique Of
Propaganda" Prof. Harold D.
Lasswell, of the University of Chi
cago, told the delegates that new
washington Hotel that new
methods of bringing about peace
are needed at this time.
Justice the End
The basis of peace propaganda,
he said, should concern itself with
the achievement of justice"
rather than simply a demand for
peace and for the end of wars. He
declared:
"The abolition Of war and
the attainment of peace are not
attained by winning some con-
gressiOnal votes from time to
time. Those who are bold
enough to demand peace are rev.
OlutiOniSts, for there is no trait
of our civilization so deeply inn
bedded as the practice of
violence in war, revolution, in.
surrectiOn, feud, industrial con-
trOversy, race ,!ot, gang war and
individual homicide.
Revolutionary changes de-
mand revolutionary measures:
and this calls for religious zeal,
religious self-sacrifice, religious
devotion to a vision of Justice"
Strengthening of the Depart
ment of State as a preventive
medicine against war" was ad-
vocated last night in an address
by Dewitt Clinton Poole, of
Princeton University.
800 Millions for War
Mr.. Poole pointed out that the
budget for the next fiscal year
asks total of 800 million dollars
for the Army and Navy, and a
little more than $12,000,O00 for
the Department of State, pointing
these figures out as an "unintel-
ligent and inexplicable" disparity.
He said:

BRITISH PRINCESS,
VICTORIA, PASSES
AWAY AT AGE OF 81

LONDON, Dec. 3. (UP) -
Princess Victoria, eldest sister OF
King George v. died early today
at her home in Ivor, Buckingham
shire. She was Ct.
Death was caused by a severe
and acute stomach hemorrhage
suffered late Sunday. A blood
TRANSMISSION gave her only tenn
porary relief, and she continued
10 sink throughout the night and
yesterday.
Queen Maud Of Norway, King
Georges other sister, fastened to
Victoria's bedside last night at
the latter's country home, about
10 miles west of London. Queen
Maud is on a private visit to Eng
land.
When doctors pronounced Vic
toria's condition as grave, it was
announced officially at Bucking-
ham palace that King George
would not perform the usual state
opening of Parliament today.
Victoria was SO years Of age
before she had a home of her
own. This, in effect, sums up her
life of devotion to other people,
particularly her beloved mother,
the late Queen Alexandra.
When Victoria, or "Torla' as
she was called, was young Wo-
man, she was her fathers private
secretary up to the time Of King
Edwards death in 1910. From
then until the time the queen
died in 1925, she was her moth
er's devoted attendant. ..

Workers Here Protest II. S.
Rules to Move In Barracks

A Special TO the Tribune from
Wolf Point, Feb. 17.-Hugh Mar
ron of this city, state commander
of the American Legion, was re-
queSted by a mass meeting of Fort
Peck workers held at this school
house at New Deal, near the pro-
ject town, to write a brief protest
ine alleged government regulations
requiring 80 percent of the project
workers to live in govt barracks.
The brief viii! be sent to Senator
Burton K. Wheeler of Montana. ac.
companied by a petition signed by
workers.
Several hundred men attended
the meeting, which was conducted
in ar orderly manner. Speakers
demanded the right to eat & sleep
where they chose than be forced
to live at barracks constructed at
the new town of Fort Peck Peti-
tons signed by some 1000 persons
request an Investigation by con.
gressional leaders. Inquiry into
expenditure of local relief money
also was asked.
When there were no barracks to
live in. hundreds of homes we're
built by workers for themselves &
their families, the speakers declar-
ed. Business places were establish
ed to provide these families with
necessities of life, it was pointed. 8
several small towns were built.
They stressed the fact that contin-
ued enforcement of the alleged re
gulation that 80 percent of the work
eTs live in barracks would deprive
the workers of the Investments
they have made in their homes &
in some cases would force their
families on relief, even though the
heads Of the families are regularly
employed on the Fort Peck project.
In a talk to the assembly, Mg.
said he considered the sit
lation "deplorable," end advised
he workers that if proper officials
,ould be acquainted with conditions
he regulations would be changed.
