20 NATIRAL TS ASK S2000 FUND Counsel for Prevention of| War Plans Largest Budget for 1930 Campaign. BY FREDERIC WILLIAM WILE. Under the skillful auspices of the Natioral Council for Prevention of War, the organization generally recognized to be the spearhead of the pacifist movement in the United States, the| year 1930 is to witness the most ag: gressive drive for peace by disarmament et undertaker by that 8-year-old body. For the qurpose the council, which ha ust held its annual meeting in Wash. ngton, calls for a campaign chest of $200,000. That sum represents the peak of the orgarization's financial activi- ties, which have annually been growing in volume. In the council’s first year, 1022, it spent $40,000; iz 1923, $51,000; in 1924, $56,000; in 1925, $60,000; in 1926, $77,000; in 1927, $113,000; in 1928, $130,000, and in 1929, $150,000. It is declared by Frederick J. Libby, the executive secretary of the council— who is practically in full control of i operations—that all of this money has come from “‘Americans.” Justifies $200,000 Budget, - Justifying the $200,000 budget desired for 1930, Mr. Libby says: “It will rep- resent a not unreasonable increase the face of the tremendous oppor- tunity that confronts us. We want to open three more regional offices ard to employ two more associate secre- taries in Washington, one of them to deal with Puhllclt.v. A branch office costs, roughly, $10,000 a year. A budget of $200,000 will be only a little more than 1 per cent of the cost of one oruiser. ' It will do more: for our na- tional security than 10 cruisers.” The following is a tabulation of the {tems which the National Council for Prevention of War intends to oppose wikh Xnernu(} AL in ll!?: 1l proposals for censcription; espe- ecially the Reed-Wainwright bill, which is denounced as “& WAr measure out of harmony with the policies which our Government is_loyally seeking to de- velop in fulfililment of the general pact for renunciation of war.” ’ The doctrine, laid down Ly the United States Supreme Court in the Schwimmer case, that the willingness o bear arms in defense of the United States is a proper requirement for ad- mission to citizenship.

The Libbyites will renew. in 1930 thelr Tong-time crusade for recognition of Soviet Russia.. Their ent is as follows: “Since both the United States and Russia are signatories of Kel- 1 pact and are committed to ‘the principle of seeking settlement of all disputes by pacific means, and _since non-recognition is being used in Ri and _elsewhere to promote militaristic developments based on suspicion and fear, we recommend that our Govern- ment be w to take steps to Te-es- tablish displomatic relations with the Russian government as advocated by the chairman of the Senate foreign re- lations committee (Borah).” B At week's gouncil annudl meet- ing Mr. Libby was able to report that the organizatiop has sent a poster of the Kellogg pact, “with the co-operation With Your Lunch o T Responsibility Use 0 Yellow Cabs and Black and White Cabs Owned and Operated by Brown Bros. b DO NOT FOOL WITH A ¢+ HEAD COLD TAKE NO CHANCES Use NOZOL Now Follow this Advice: Break Up a Cold Before It Gets Started. ‘Avoid Dosing.
