4 | PERSHING PLEADS FOR SWEEPING CUT Others Plead for Plan to Save World From Bankruptcy by Military Expenditures. Messages continue to pour in on fhe World from all parts of the @arth congratulating it on its cru- we fa favor of national disarma- Ment. ‘The tenor of the messages is aiinost' universally in favor of some plan ‘to out tho appropriations for paval and military ditures as the only meane of preventing world~ wide bankruptcy. A clear note of warning was sound- of by Gen. Pershing, who said in o speech to the 1,000 prominent met and women at the $1,000-a-plate din- ‘er of the European Relief Council at the Hotel Commodore: “As wé contemplate the causes of the World ‘War and realize its hor- rors, every right thinking man and woman must feel like demanding that some steps be taken to prevent ite recurrence, An important step would Be to ourtail expenditures for the maintenance of navies and armies. “The eptimates recently presented #0 our Congress for naval and mili tary purposes contemplate an appro- priation for the next fiscal year amounting” to over $5,000,000 for every working day in the year “It isa gloomy commentary upon eworld conditions that expenditures several times greater than ever be- fore in peace Uimes should be con- sidered necessary, eBpecially when the most rigid economy in governmental administration is essential if we swould avoid national bankruptcy. “But we are only one of the many nations that contemplate taking upon themselves such an enormous bur- den, in addition to their tremendous War debts. “The world does not séem to learn ftom experfence. 1t would appear that the lessons of the past six years should be enough to convince every- pedy of the danger of nations strid- ing up and down the earth armed to the teeth. But no one nation can re- duce armaments unless all do.’ (Ap- plduse.) Len't it ther time for an awakening among enlightened peo- ples to the end that the leading pow- ers may reach some rational agree- ment which would not only relieve the world of this terrible financial load but which in itself would be a long step toward the prevention of war? (Applause.) “Ours is not an ageréssive Nation. ‘We want no territory, and we have no designs on other people. If othet nations have’ the same attitude, It seems unreasonable not to believe that all would be willing to prove it by consenting to limit armaments, Unless some such move be made, we may well ask ourselves whether civ- ization does really reach @ point where it begins to destroy life, and whether we ate, thus doomed to go headlong down through destructive war to darkness and barbarism.” Dr. Dernbure Pleads for Disarma= ment.

It is none of our con- cern. In fact, it would be far better if Germans did not express an opin- ton if the question were merely mili- tary. Germany is disarmed. But from the viewpoint of world econom- jes\Germany has a yital interest. If, as there is no doubt, the world eco- nomie crisis {8 coming from across the Atlantic to Hurope; if there are 1,000,000 unemployed in England and hundreds of thousands of unemployed fn Germany, there must be something wrong with the industrial fabric of the world. “Bverywhere there ‘rationalizing’ That means saving, cutting out waste, increasing efft- clency.

It was my fitet birthday since our marriage, afd I “had been looking! forward to it for weeks. Although | Hugh had become increasingly ab- sorbed in his business, I never dreamed that he could forgét such an important event. ‘At home, mother had always made a great deal of my birthday. There was always an array of beautiful gifts and usually she arranged somo kind of entertainment for mo. De- spite the fact that Hugh had given| no sign that he was aware .ot the nearness of the day, I felt certain that he would prepare some kind of @ur- prise for me.

As these questions elicited from him nothing | more responsive than some passing remarks about the day's oll news, I decided I would make no further ef- fort to assist Hugh's memory. Wistfully I followed him into the hall where he was putting on his over- coat. “Say; Alma,” he said rather brusque- ly, “I wish you'd go over these sleeve Unings for me, ‘They're developing | several rips” “Very well,” I answered a shade coolly. “I am sorry I have not no- ticed them before.” Hugh kissed me hastily, pulled open the door, then let it slam as! he bounded down the steps. I walked to the window and watched his re- treating’figure. There went the man who had vowed at the altar to love! and cherish me not eight months ago. | Ho would no more than turn the cor- | ner when he would have forgotten | for the day all about my existence. | This was all that wives had te look forward to—coldness, Indifference and | neglect.
