STOCKHOLM, Sweden, April 30. The forthcoming peace conference of the international Socialist bureau is not to be held at the instance of the Germans and will not work for a separate peace, ' said Pieter Troelstra, Dutch Socialist leader and chairman of the executive committee, in n interview today with the Associated Press. He spoke first of the decision of the French Socialists not to send delegates to Stockholm, saying that in spite of this action French Soacialists would be represented, if merely by minority delegates. He was reminded bf the assertion made in France that the only thing the conference could accomplish would be to further a project for a separate peace. "That is the last thing in the world it will do," he said. "We are not working for a separate peace and do not desire 'it. What we want is universal peace and we believe the time has come when there is a chance of achieving it. We are most optimistic as to the outlook."

Roosevelt recruit a volunteer force, and the senate prohibition of liquor selling to soldiers in uniform, or near training camps.
