SOWING SEED

(Continued ffrem Paae One. - '-. increase of armanents would afford no additional security of peace, . that it would Interfere with the efforts of the United States - government to bring about peace, would, prevent possible permanent peace and would - be a departure from the American ideals -of government. : The resolutions follow:

Indiana Yearly. Meetings of Friends

' assembled in it J6JJ&; annual session, reaffirming its belief 'that war is unchristian and therefore wrong; morally - as well as economically.' ' records its sincere appreciation, of .'the policy' of non-intervention which, has been followed by our government with respect to i Mexico, and of neutrality with re spect to the warring nations of Europe, and pledges to the President and other officers of the government its enthusiastic support in , the effort to maintain such a position in international affairs.' k-H-- i.:--'-' ' The meeting further, records its belief ' ,;;.-,f k That an increase . of armanents in the United States would' at this time afford no additional security , for the continuance of our peace, ' " That any such increase would seriously interfere with' the influence of our government in . any. future effort which it might make, to ward the termination of the . present war, that it ;vould retard constructive action for S'the prevention of wars in the future, And "that any such increase would 'be a departure from. American ideals of a government capable of a rational solution of international difficulties. Resolved further . v . ' That- the efforts of militarists not only to fan the flames, the flames of war spirit, and to increase the clamor for military "preparedness" but to continually urge through,1 platform and press the introduction of military drill . into our public schools, constitutes one of the most subtle dangers now confronting : the American people. We cannot think it other than the grossest folly to expect . a harvest of peace from sowing the seeds of war. Resolved, That a copy of this declaration of our belief on these important matters be forwarded by the officers of the meeting to the President of the United States, the secretary of state and to senators' from-those states in which our subordinate - meetings are situated." , . ? -

MATRON'S ILLNESS

The illness IdmrAnrelia Thomas, matron of theHefor.theFriendlesal may .'prevent the . county commissioners from . instituting . investigation proceedings in the conditions at the county Jail for women, as was recommended by the grand jury. The commissioners will meet " tomorrow morning and the advisability of conducting the ' Investigation, when - it would " be impossible ' to give Mrs. Thomas an opportunity to defend herself in the charges, will be discussed. "It is alleged by many friends of Mrs. Thomas that the grand 'jury took advantage of . the ; testimony of dissatisfied employes, who had been released from service at . the home. Mrs. Thomas's illness prevented her from appearing before the jury. .The physicians', stated .today that her condition ' is gradually improving but that she -would - not be able to assume her duties at the Home for over a week. It is understood that the physicians ' have advised her to resign from ' the "work os account ' of her poor physical 'condition.

CHINA REGARDS (J.S. AS KINDEST FRIEND

, "Chinese - sentiment in- the Orient

favors' Germany in the present Europe

ean. war. I do hotjmean that this sentiment Is intense or demonstra' tive but It is the' general ' thought ; of the Chinese, at least those who understand the situation, that Germany

should win."

This was the, opinion of Rev.; Robert L. Slmpkin, mlcionary to China under

the L direction ; xt the English Foreign

Missionary Board who. is attending the Indiana Yearly Meeting in the East

Main Street Friends church. .

"The reason that the Chinese favor Germany," continued Mr. Simpkln, "is

because Japan is a member of the

Allies and China does not want to see Japan in any way profit through the

close of the war. v

"There is a certain feeling In China,

too against England, which is due perhaps to the fact that she had much to do with Japan's entrance into the war.

"Strange as it may seem in view-of

the difference in race and customs.

Cbtoa regards the? United States as

her best friend. ' She looks to her in

time of trouble and this feeling of es

teem for our country becomes more and more apparent, daily."

uOAJiD; OF WORKS

Continued Frem'Papa One.1 purchase ' price established for the electric- plant of that company.' placed a going value of approximately $50,000 on the lines of the company used for its out-of-town business.". - President Bavis of the board - of public works said. ' .- - "As representatives of the city we are naturally interested in having", the commission establish' as low a purchase: price on - the ' Light," Heat and Power electric plant as - possible, and

we do not want the commission to in

clude in such'' a ' purchase price any

going value whatever on the plant's

out-of-town business. .

"The administration believes that an injustice will have been done the city .if a going value on such business

is -provided for by ; the commission, because the company,' in our opinion, has absolutely no right to use ' the

streets of the city for any-lines carry

ing current outside the city. TJnder its franchise ' the .company only has authority to conduct its electric business 'within the corporate limits of the city

of Richmond. ' - 5- - J No, Ruling Handed Dewn.i ' r

present time Judge Fox has made no . - The Light, deat and Power , company malnsbis that it la not bound by the terms of ita franehlae, bavins surrendered, ita. franchise)' to the state commission, and accepted, in lieu, an indeterminate i operating permit. ' The company also points out that all of Its out-of-town lines were constructed under the authority of the commission. Itla generally believed that the state commission, when - it rules upon the city's petition; for the purchase of the L. H.. and P. electric , plant, will establish a purchase price considerably in excess of what the city attorney and the board of works anticipated.

Fearing the commission will thwart the

purchase project by establishing a purchase valuation a. little. too . steep for the city to-give any . consideration to, the city officials are' anxiously awaiting the outcome of the' injunction proceedings now pending, with Judge Fox. A municipal victory in this case would Influence the commission not to consider any value for the out-of-town business of the privately .owned utility. . Hampered by Finances.'' - In the event the commission should establish a purchase' prive in excess of $300,000, which is less than the. valuation the company places on' Its electric unit, city officials realise that it would be difficult for the city to finance the proposed deal. f It is also realized that the' company, in the event a purchase price of $300,000 or more was established, might attempt to force the - city to buy.- The company has from the first contended that the city actually bought its. electric plant when it filed condemnation proceedings, with the commission to fix the price. ,. . - When the city's petition was given

a hearing last June the commission declined to rule whether the filing of a condemnation action bound the city to purchase the plant. ,. The commission

decided that this was a legal question for the courts to determine; and taa

all It was required to do was to Its a

purchase valuation. -
