THIS BEE: OMAHA, SATURDAY, MAY 21, 1921. Bryan Urges LI S. To Take Lead in Disarmament In "Bungalow Mystery" Nebraskan Says It Is Easier To Get Into War Than Out Under Present Law. Chicago, May 20. America was urged to take the lead in effecting eduction of armaments of all na ions at a mass meeting addressed ry W. J. Bryan and others, in the final session of the two-day con fess on limitation of armaments. Mr. Bryan made the closing appeal tor world peace, declaring his motto .to be "disarmament by agreement, if possible; by cxamplcv if neces sary." The purpose of the conference was summed up in a resolution adopted today and presented to tonight's as semblage, urging President Harding to call Great Britain and Japan into conference looking to reduction of naval armaments by agreement. America, said Mr. Bryan, was the only great nation which set an ex ample in mobilization for war, but now, he added, "she can't get out of war." He ridiculed the law which required two-thirds vote in congress to ratify a treaty, but permitted declaration of war by a majority vote. "Wouldn't it be possible to have peace as well as war by a majority vote?" he demanded. "Now it's eas ier to get into war than to. get out. I'd rather ,ee it the other way." Fight Over Little Things! After blocking peace for two years, Mr. Bryan said, America had injected "a fight over little things." Men of all parties were agreed on the big things, he declared, but al lowed "little things" to prevent ac ceptance of a treaty containing three points constituting "the longest step taken toward peace in a thousand years." Provisions requiring nine months' investigation and delibera tion before beginning war, and the recommendations for abolition of secret treaties, he declared to be principles desired by all and were enough to warrant acceptance of the treaty. He said that despite a better un derstanding of war than it ever had before, the world was spending more money on armaments than before x the world war. "The devil taught us to avoid war by armament," he said. "We obeyed the devil's voice and now we are paying the devil's price." Labor for Peace. Matthew Well, vice president of the American Federation of Labor, extended the "helping hand of the American labor movement" to the congress in its proposal for disarma ment. He asserted labor's stand for peace, but declared labor had no. re gret for the part it took in the world war. "Labor went into the war believing victory would lessen the chances of other wars," he said. "Unless this shall beooutcome, our struggle shall have been in vain. But we believe that the decision for -war no longer lies in political power. Economic and industrial power will decide the next war. Already we find almost every nation enacting tariff laws to cap ture trade, and sooner or later a new struggle will flame forth. We must aroue the public mind against this war." Dr. Nehemiah Boyiiton of New York, speaking for the religious forces of America, also asked for peace through friendship and inter national relationships. f J ( feoV f v ' I . A" country-wide search is being conducted for Arthur Tyler, alias "Don" Collins, known to the New York police as a gambler and confi dence ma'n, who is .wanted in con nection with the shooting of John H.
