By Marguerite Mooers Marshall. “My husband, three-year-old boy and I have lived in New York City one year and saved money on an income of $10.50 per week. Recently q have been through this country to the Middle West, also through the New England States, and I know that I can live cheaper in New York City and get more out of life than in any | other town or city where I have ever been.” That ie the sum of “Jennie K.

In general owtline there is contemplated the calling of a third peace conference at The Hague to carry further the steps taken at the two others, “Nations are to be asked to join in an agreement to recognize the eu- premacy of international law as laid down by the conference and to abide by the decisions of a world court. The judgments of such @ court can be enforced by economic pressure rather than by military force. “Instead of seeking to inflict de- struction on a recalcitrant nation we purpose to apply economie punish- ment, such as non-intercourse, the closing of ports, erecting barriers of trade and rendering the offender an out “Ag soon as the European war is over the plan is for the United States to take the lead in an enaeaver to bring all the rest of the world into a league of nations that will make international law a binding force, not a Mere sentimen' which any country is at Liberty to violate whenever it seas fit, “There are those who advocaté the compulsion of @ military police force, but this Involves destruction of lives and property. We are of opinion that economic coercion can be made just as effective and will be more ac- ceptable to the nations of the world. “We believe that this plan will prove effective and the preliminary work of education of public opinion already has begun, The point of greatest opposition will come in Ger- many, where they seem now to be confirmed believers in nationalism rather than internationalism and in race conflict rather than in unity.” caret Bsns BROADWAY TOWER FALLS, Wireles on W c One of the two aixty-foot steel tow- ers supporting the wireless antennas on the roof of the John Wanamaker store at Eighth Street and Broadway broke in two at @ potnt thirty feet trom the roof shortly after 1 o'clock this after- noon.
