TEN MILLIONS WAS GIVENJFOR PEACE Andrew Carnegie Today Donates that Sum to Promote Arbitration.
(Atnrkmn News Bervlce) Washington. Dec. 14. Andrew Car
tieple today lead John I. Kockefeller by ninety millions in competitive pub
lic Riving. Tbe donation of ten million by Carnegie today to the board of trustees for tbe endowment of an
International peace foundation for the
udoUtion of war brings tbe ateel
king's total public gifts up to $210,-
Oon.noo. President Taft today accept
rd th'i honorary presidency of tbe
foundation, but Senator Kllhu Root
has been chosen the active bead of
the movement.
In the Informal deed of transfer
Carnegie says In part: "I have transferred to you as trustees of tbe Carnegie Peace Fund $10,. (hiO.OOO of 6 prr cent Interest bearing first mortgage bonds, valued at $11,500,000. The revenue of this is to bo administered by you to hasten the abolition of International war. the foulest blot upon our civilization." Still Like Barbarians. Although we 'no longer eat our fellow men nor torture prisoners nor sack cities, killing their Inhabitants, we still kill each other in war like barbarians. Only wild beasts are excusable for doing that In this twentieth century of the Christian era. The crime of war Is inherent since the early ages as a resort for settling differences, but always In favor of the strong. The nation Is criminal which refuses arbitration and drives Its adversary to tribunal which knows nothIng of righteous Judgment. "I believe that the shortest and easiest path to peace lies In adopting President Taft "a platform, who said in his address before the peace arbitration society on March 22, 1910, in New Tork, 'I have noticed exceptions in our arbitration treaties as to the reference of questions of national honor to courts of arbitration. Personally I do not see any more reason why matters of national honor should not be referred to a court of arbitration than matters of property or of national proprietorship. I know that it is going further than most men are willing to go, but I do not eeo why questions of honor may not be submitted to a tribunal composed of men of honor, who understand questions of national honor, to abide by their decision, as well as any other questions of national honor, to abide by their decision, as well as any other questions of difference arising betwee'n nations.' .

(American News Service)
Ixmdon. Dec. 14. The great boilermakers strike which threatened to hurl Great Britain into the vortex of a labor war which would stagnate the erarire, has been settled. After months of idleness during which intermittent conferences were held by representatives of the employers and tiie Boilermakers' union a i lan of settlement has been arranged. A vote was taken by the workmen and the result which was announced today, ' was in favor of accepting the terms of the employers. Work in many of the shops will be resumed tomorrow while in others the men will not return until Monday. The lockout in the boiler makers' strike came early in September. It . was directly due to the action of the j men in joining a number of sectional strikes in disregard to the agreements into which they had entered with the employers. The leaders admitted that the men were at fault although they decided to stand by their guns for fear that giving in would weaken the foundations of trade unionism. The executive of the boilermakers' , ticion conferred with the employers !crd together they drew- up a tentative Rgreemert of settlement, but it was voted down. ' The strike has cost at least $5,000,- ' 000. the greatest damage b?ins done j in the great ship building center about i Newcastle-on-Tyne.
