All Must Have Voice, “5. It must be a program under which all the international machinery that is created will afford a medium through which all classes of society can voice their judgment and register eir demands. We must not delude rselves into thinking that the inter- %l(loml problem will be solved en- irely by the establishment of an in- v_rnmi ~court along traditional ines, presided over by lawyers to pass udgment upon violations of estab- ished international law, The fact is that the real causes of modern wars are not so much violations of estab- lished law, as they are conflicts over new problems and new needs that have not yet become a part of international law. So that any ade- quate international program must in- clude the establishment of a system of stated international conferences in which the representatives of such democratic interests as labor and busi- ness can present and discuss, not une der any established rules of evidence, but in the spirit of impartial exami- nation , those difficulties and differ- ences that threaten to give rise to war."” Mr. Gompers declared that insofar as the program of the League to En- force Peace. represented an effort to meet the conditions he had outlined, it demanded the interest and careful scrutiny of every man who had the in- terests of labor at heart, “It is not for me, b( word of mouth, to commit the laboring men of America to an; ‘f:‘:lk':‘ullr program in international af- s, PRESIDENT NAMES CHATAM AS POSTMASTER AT PERU Washington, D.

It seems to me the question answers itself.” Would Modify Monroe Doctrine. Under the plan for world peace as League to Enforce Peace, the United States might have to relinquish some of its older interpretations of the Monroe doctrine in the event of a dispute with a FEuropean power, Georfe Wilson, professor of interna- tional law at Harvard, declared in his addregs. Under peace treaties signed in recent years, Prof. Wilson said, such concession will have to be made, “The United States has, within recent years,” he said, “become a party to a large number of treaties in which ‘the high contracting parties agree that all disputes between them, of every nature whatsoever, to the settlement of which previous arbitra- tion treaties or agreements do not ap- rly in their terms or are not applied n fact, shall, when diplomatic methods of adjustment have failed, be referred for investigation and report to an international commission,” and ‘they agree not to declare war or be- gin hostilities during such investiga- tion and before the report is sub- mitted, “Plainly therefore the United States is bound already under these and other treaties, of which there are a large number, to submit disputes in- volving the Monroe doctrine to a body which would meet the require- ments of the platform of the League to Enforce Peace, May Have to Abandon It, “Further it may be said, if, when in dispute, the Monroe doctrine as ap- plied by the United States is not a policy upon which the United States 1s willing to await hearing, consider- ation and recommendation, then the United States has not acted in good faith in signing these recent treaties, and it may also be said if the Ameri- can policy as embodied in the Monroe doctrine will not stand the test of in- vestigation and consideration it is time for the United States to be de- termining why it should longer give to the doctrine its support, “As the plan of the league for sub- mission of controversies such as might arise over the Monroe doctrine has, on the initiative of the United States, already been embodied in treaties with a frnur part of the states of the world, such a plan cannot be re- arded as lmfflc!iclbk without con- lemnation of the judgment of those who are in control of the affairs of the world, and this judgment the Lea, ue to Enforce Peace, having the well being of the world in view, does not criticize and condemn, but sup- ports and commends.” In 8an Francisco Des%erado Fights flflolioemen San Francisco, May 26.—Barricaded in a boat house on the edge of San Francisco bay, a lone desperado fought a half hour gun and revolver battle today with fifty policemen, who surrounded his lair after he had killed Police Sergeant John J. Moriarity. The defender was found dead on the floor when the police finally captured the house boat after shooting the lock off the door. The battle was staged from the land and water with a boat load of olicemen raining lead upon the house oat and another squad shooting from sheltered land positions about the docks. The entrenched bandit poured a steady stream of bullets at his uni- formed enemies until fatally wounded. The police found mahy shot guns, rifles, automatic revolvers and stores of ammunition, The name, “M. E. Jones," was found on the tailor’s label on the dead bandit's coa The bandit had taken refuge in his house boat, after he had killed Mo- riarity, who was arresting him for passing counterfeit money on street cars.
