PROTESTS THE NAVAL PLANS Society of Friends Voice Sentiments in Letter Addressed to the President-Elect on Subject. The Religious Society of Friends of the -United States have addressed a letter to the president-elect in which they have set forth their veiws on the subject of increased naval armament .and have given to the press a copy of the letter which is as follows: Philadelphia. Pa., Jan. 4. 1921. Warren G. Harding, . Marion. Ohio. Dear Friend: The people of the United States are vitally interested in the amount of taxes they will be called upon to pay during the years that lie im mediately ahead. The items that enter into the national budget are therefore of more absorbing interest no wthan perhaps ever before. Nearly 68 per cent of the budget as it stood shortly before the end of the last fiscal year was devoted to the payment of charges incurred in the conduct of recent and previous wars, and nearly 25 per cent to the expenses of the war and navy de partments. In all, therefore, a to tal of nearly 93 per cent was devot ed to past war and preparation for possible future war. We cannot shake off our liability for obligations incurred in the past, but we can resolve not to assume the intolerable burden of armament competition in ; preparation for another conflict. There has already been striking evi- dence that the common people are increasingly demanding relief from the appalling cost of modern war fare. The great conflict left no more ur gent problem than that of making, future wars impossible. The col ossal destruction of life and proper ty, the vast sum of human suffering involved in war, the danger that an other conflict may destroy our very civilization itself, have all turned men's minds as never before, toward the goal of international peace and good will. Statesmen and leaders are striving to attain it. The mas ses of people everywhere long for its realization. The most practical first step in the direction of peace and good will is the reduction of na tional armaments. Major General Tasker H. Bliss in a remarkable address recently deliv ered in Philadelphia, referred to the doctrine of increasing armaments, heretofore adopted by other nations. "The application of this doctrine," he said, "seems to have a tendency it is true, to reduce the frequency of wars. But the ultimate result is inevitable. The pent-upn dynamic forces of the nations reach a point tension at which resistence ceases and then comes an explosion which rocks the world to its base." Those are mistaken, he states, "who may think there can be an enduring and effective association of the nations for the maintenance of peace so long as those nations are armed to the teeth solely against each other. And those are mistaken who think that, so long as the present military sys tem exists, there can be any peaceful international court of arbitration." We are convinced that these state ments are profoundly true, and therefore heartily endorse anel urge upon the favorable attention of the executive and legislative branches of our government, the two proposals that have been put forward looking toward the reduction of armaments: First: That this country shall enter into an agreement with other nations for a so-called naval holi ray and refrain from new naval con struction for a period of years. Second: The even more funda mental and important proopsal so convincingly presented by General Bliss, that this country shall take the lead in a movement looking to ward a world-wide reduction of ar mies. Financial considerations alone are sufficient to Justify these proposals. Bht far more fundamental is the avoidance of future war. May the United States embrace to the full, the wonderful and Christian consid erations, and upon which the con tinuation of our civilization may de pend.

The matter of paving the high way from the end of the pavement in South Omaha to Fort Crook, is a matter in which the residents of this county who have automobiles will be greatly interested and it bids fair to he carried out. if the present plans rroposed are accepted. J. H. Mc Donald, chief of the bureau of pub lic roads, at Washington, has taken the matter up and as it is a military highway, has suggested that it be paved under the federal aid act. The improving of the road has been taken up by Congressman Jefferis in whose district it is located and will be brought to the attention of the Nebraska department of public works. Miss L.

Calls Communism Robbery. Berlin. Jan. 11. "Communism ii Russia is robberism; it tolerates im prisonment, persecution and execu tion without trial; it has brough Russia starvation, disease and death There is no government. It is i worse autocracy than czaristio gov crnment and I lived there for ove; twenty years under the czar." M Schwartz, American socialist of Sat Francisco, recently released fron four months imprisonment in Mos iow, declared today. With hi wife, known twenty years in Amer ica as a socialist worker under the name of Jessie M. Molle, he went t Russia last June and attended th second congress of the third interna tionale. The couple were thrown into pris on August 6. because they failed U approve conditions in Russia. The were released December 3, after Mrs Schwartz went on a hunger strike Met By Brass Bands. Mrs. Schwartz died at Reval De comber 20. from the effects of hei long solitary confinement and hun ger, and her husband is returning to America to give even worse pic tures of conditions in Russia thar many Italian. British and Germar delegates to the congress of the thiro Internationale have painted. Describing the early part of hi; visit, he said: "Everywhere ho went we were met by brass bands am' crowds waving red flags shoutinp for the soviet government. But w( weren't fooled. From the momen we landed in Petrograd we saw mis ery, dilapidation and squalor. We suspected something was wrong, which could not be explained merely by revolution. "I began talking to persons of al' cb'.sses and broke away from our bclshevist conductors. I soon found that the shouting crowds had to shout or their food ration would br reduced or taken away. I never talked with a single person outside of officials, who had a good word tc say for the soviet government. Thrown Into New Prison. "We asked for our baggage and money and papers. We were told we would be given them at the sta tion. We carried more than ?M,00C of American gold into Russia, which had been taken from us, and we re fused to move without it and were thrown back into another prison where my wife was the only woman in a cell twenty feet square with myself and thirty other men. Finally the situation became so desperate that she said she would go on a hurfger strike and advertise to fellow workers in America our wrongs through her death rather than continue to suffer. "Five days later we were sent to Reval, penniless. There the Ameri can Y. M. C. A. gave us shelter, but my wife had suffered too much. I buried her there, assisted by the American consul and Y. M. C. A. workers and 1 am carrying a pic ture of her grave back to our chil dren and to the American workers wh-. know how devoted she had been to their cavse."
