U S ARMY LAWHIT * BYPEACE LEAGUE) 23 Mrs. La Follette TeIIs Dele- gates New Act Gives Pow- k. er to Militarists. Repeal of “dangerous provisions™ of the Army reorganization act of 1920 1s being planned by the Woman's In- ternational League for Peace and Freedom, Mrs. Robert La Follette told ¢elegates to the annual conference ©f the league at the opening of the second day's sessions, at the Grace Dodge Hotel today. The objectionable provisions, ghe #aid, include the transterring of the control of the Army, heretofore ex- ercised by Congress, to the general staff, which “puts the policy of the nation, insofar as it relates to mil- {tarization, into the relentless grip ©f the war machine” She declared that Congress and the people can in- fluence that policy until the law is 3epealed by withholding appropria- tions. Despotism Is Feared, Miss Amy Woods, national secretary of the league in an address this ared that the d“ lan‘al s of it. made before the Ste military aifairs committe lows: “Nearly all of the control hereto- fore exercised by Congress over the Army I3 to be_transferred, theoreti- cally to the President, but practi- cally to the chief of staff—however, Congress is stlll_to be permitted to foot the bills. It specifically gives to the President unlimited authority ‘as he may deem ne to pre- soribe the number, c , nomen- Slature and strength of the many different organizations into which the four arms of the se are or may be divided, Infantry, Cavalry, Field Artillery and Coast Artillery. ‘It spells one-man dominance, staff despotism and milltarism to a de- gree never surpassed in the palmiest days of the great general staff of the German army."” Editor to Speak.

The real reason behind the fallure of Age of Twenty-Two. the Senate to adopt the usual resolu- tion thanking the Vice President for fairness and consideration while pre- siding over the Senate, at the close of the Congress, leaked out today. Sena- tor Heflin of Alabama, democrat, was the man who threw the monkey wrench into the machinery. Senator Heflin was incensed because while he was denouncing Wil street interests in the Senate on one occasion during the last session he was called to order by Senator Lodge, the republi- can leader, who made a point of order that Mr. Heflin was reflecting upon Sen- ator Wadsworth of New York. The point of order was sustained by Vice President Coolidge, and Senator Heflin was compelled to take his seat and his remarks were stricken from the Record. The Alabama senator Insisted that he had not reflected upon Senator Wadsworth, and that the action of the Vice President had been In violent conflict with the rules of the Senate; that free speech was being denled senators by his ruling. par e R I L A it R EEEEEEEE—]EE Rosemary FUDGE, Rosemary FUDGE, five varieties, 49c 1b.
