?-rr
It really appears to be a serious
movement towards universal peace
that the nations are taking the matter
of disarmament seriously. For
the first time in history it now develops
that all the great nations are
seriously and honestly considering the
question. Heretofore each of the
great nations have secretly, if not
openly, moved forward in the direction
of armament. No doubt this policy
would still prevail but for several
very plain facts. . First of all, the
great mass of mankind is beginning
to rebel. The taxes have put burdens
upon the backs of the people that, ere
long would have resulted in the overthrow
of governments. Then, too,
thoughtful minds are beginning to see
that the whole scheme of arming to
the treth breeds distrust, not faith; it
is not strange that as one great nation
builds another follows in the
spirit of rivalry and fear. The whole
plan comes to grief under its own
uselessness and futility. There is yet
another reason. Men are everywhere
asking the why and wherefore. Is it
conquest? We do not desire conquest.
Is it glory? We are beginning
to realize that human glory
wears a tinsel crown. Is it more
gold? The peoples of the earth, cei
tainly many individuals of all peoples,
are beginning to realize that gold i3
a sorry god and not worth the blood
and suffering that is caused by war.
Is it excitement, show, display ? The
paths of peace, under the new advances
in science and invention offer
all the thrills that war offers and
promises much more value in return.
Is it to develop commerce, agriculture,
great construction programs and gigantic
enterprises, We are beginning
to know that in the paths of peace is
to be found the real way to enlarging
and advancing the great affairs of
human endeavor. Then, too, wars
must have soldiers for their waging.
Men are beginning to ask: "Is it
worth while?," "What is it all
about?," and a thousand other questions.
It is also beginning to be
understood that there are international,
as well as national obligations,
that no nation liveth to itself; that
kindness, not suspicion and hate,
should be the attitude of one nation
towards another. There is yet another
reason: The tremendous progress
being made in weapons of offense
and defense, the fact that a
handful of experts can perform feats
that armies could not perform a decade
ago, have brought a halt to the
armament program. Invention and
ntieuce are apuny wringing in a Uay
when great armies and navies will be
obsolete. We may expect some very
startling developments in the armament
question in a very brief time.
Our eat says disarmament will
come when the mutterings against
high taxes grow louder.

LAW TO PREVENT ,
LIQUOR SMUGGLING
Hamilton, Bermuda, June 25.?The
Colonial Parliament has just passed
a special law to prevent liquor smuggling
from Bermuda to the United
States. Anyone putting intoxicants
aboard a vessel bound to American
ports incurs a fine of 25 pounds and
the penalty for a second offense is
50 pounds. Local dealers who are
found to be in connivance with the
law-breakers are penalized and may
be deprived of their licenses.
This law, which is now in effect,
was brought about thanks to the
r 'ckless manner of carrying on illicit
operations during the past year. Not
only were hiding places for booze in
all parts of the ships utilized, but the
smugglers went so far as to open up
barrels of potatoes in the hold and
insert whiskey bottles.
Discovery of this practice led to an
outcry from local produce shippers
who foresaw interference with their
deliveries entailing delay and money
losses. The Bermudians were concerned
over the possibility of having
the liners held up at New JTork by
Federal agents to the peril of legitimate
trade and the interruption of
tourist traffic on which local prosperity
so largely depends.
The recent capture, off the Carolina
coast, of a schooner with 45 barrels of
whiskey loaded here at St. Georges
also had Its effect in hastening legislation.
I WHITF STRIfcTF
CAUSES NEW DISPUTES
Rome, June 21.?The recent "whitt
strike" of the state employes of Italj
produced another series of innovations
in labor disputes. The workers
kept their positions and nominally did
not cease to work but all "soldiered
on the job" to such an extent that in
many cases total absention from worl
would not have wrought greater damage.
The strike besides involving the ordinary
employes in the state administration
included the post office
forces, which in Italy comprises both
the telephone and telegraph. The employes
would present themselves for
work in the morning and "soldier"
along with their work, getting practically
nothing done until 11 o'clock,
when all would leave the various ministries
and offices for a labor meeting.
The whole of the state's administration
would then be at a standstill
for several hours, while in some cases
it extended for the whole day. Besides
the mass meetings, there would
be loeal meetings held in the various
departments, all at the expense of the
time of the government.
The greatest public inconvenience
was caused by the attitude of the
postal employes, including the telegraph
and telephone staffs. Dismissal
was threatened those who attended
the daily labor meeting but that
threat only partially succeeded in restoring
discipline. Telephone service
was practically at a standstill.
Persons would attemnt to f*ot the een
trals for hours and would finally Rive
it up in despair. Occasionally, a central
operator would answer hut there
was never a puarantee that the connection
wanted would be Riven.
The letter carriers also participated
in the "white strike." The street
letter boxes became filled too full foi
another letter. They were only emptied
when it satisfied the whims of
the man assipned for the work. The
service was completely disorpanized
Premier Giolitti pave orders that
all adherinp to the "white strike'
must be punished. Accordinply ovei
100 were disc-harped in Rome, 400 in
Milan, 140 in Naples and larpe numbers
elsewhere.
