W., ASKING UNITED ACTION Republican National Committee Chairman Pleads for In- dustrial Peace » Calif, San Franci: 1.— April Scathing denunciation of the Industrial | § Workers of the World, a plea for} unified action and industrial peace at home, and the declaration of the republican party for peace by vic-| tory only and not by comprimise bar- gaining, were included in an address here tonight of Will H. Hays, chair- man of the republican national com- mittee, at a banquet tendered him by: leaders of his party. The banquet was the culmination of Mr. Hays’ efforts to conciliate and har- monize the various factions in Califor- nia of the republican party. Men of all wings were his visitors during the day. Significance was attached by politi- cians to Hays’ statement made after a@ meeting today that ‘there were no factions in the republican party.” “The loyalty of the republican par- ty has always been and always will ‘be measured only by the possibilities” Mr. Hays said in his address. “The republican party stands for, first to do everything in our power to win the war now; second, for peace by victory, and never a peace by compro- mise bargaining; third, to prepare in & sane manner to solve the immeasur- able. problems of reconstruction and sail the chartless seas that come of- ter the war. All this for a purpose far'greater than party success - - all that no harm shall come to the re- public. PLEA THAT HUNS STOP MASSACRES BY TURK TROOPS London, April 15.—A Russian wire- Jess message addressed to Berlin says: “The offensive of the Turkish troops and detachments on the Caucasian front has been followed by murder of! the whole Armenian population. The peaceful population of women and children has been killed without mer- cy and their property has been plun- dered and burned. The peace treaty, which we were forced to sign at Brest-Litovsk, left the determination of future destiny of the people of the provinces of Ardnahan, Karms and Batum to them- selyes. “The people’s commarist foreign af- fairs protests against such abuse of the right of self-determination of the expresses the hope and insists on the necessity of immediate and ener- getic intervention on the part of Ger- meny in the Caucasus with a view to stopping further murders and the an- nilhilitation of the peaceful popula- tion, such as have taken place in Aradan. WILD WEST FASHION Fayette Girl Rides Pony 26 Miles to Town ' Dickinson, N.
