5B8 EUSHtV D4lti! ttUARO AUTHORITIES DIFFER ON RESULTS WAM OF WORLD Benefits Many, Is Opinion of Number; None, Others Hold Ex-Kaiser I Sure World Lost Everything Views Are Expressed In Legion Weekly Symposium. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Aug. 4. -A symposium of "'What' Did tte World Gain by the World War'" is published by the American Legion Weekly. The majority of the re plies, many of them . from famous Americans, agree there were gaius, though some deny any. The first person quoted, the for mer kaiser's secretary, Admiral H. Von Keibeir-I'aschwitz, said: "What did the world gain?' Noth ing It lost everything." "This answer," said the article, Vas ia reply to a letter to William llubcnzollern, Esq., in Holland. It is taken to represent very closely the real views of the former emperor." The symposium waa prepared to feature the tenth anniversary of the beginning of the world war. Follow ing are some of the replies. Crown Prince Caustlo Frederich Wilhelm, former crown prince, say's: "The result was that all nations are arming as hard as they can, and what about democracy! Just look at the cables from over the whole world. Dictatorship of some sort or other is the favorite idea. The only good the war did is to show tiiat a nation, not well armed, is powerless, and that such a nation gets no help from anybody." ' Newton O. Baker said: ' "Taking the long view, I believe it is possible now to say that the world is at last convinced that the balance of power theory is an unstable basis for world peace and thnt international cooperation is the only plan to be tried. This is a great gain." General Joiin J. Pershing said: "While we are probably too close to the events of the world war def initely to judge of its general bene fits to mankind, yet the victory did result in preventing domination by autocracy, with all its disastrous ef fects upon civilization, and the evi dence is clear that the free peoples of the world will unite in resisting such domination." Says Democracy Helped Samuel Gom'pers, president of the American Federation of Labor: "The world gained as a result of the greatwar a freedom from the menace of organized militarist im perialism without which all peopleH sooner or Inter would have been en chained in bondage and vassalage, democracy is in the ascendancy, the dominant form of government." Jane Addams: "1 A revelation of what modern war is, when systematic propaganda :irouses world-wide hate and when ' It's a EViorry Round of 1 3 R n M h A A A screen treat designed especially to make you laugh right out loud, not once, but many times. USUAL PRICES 20 cents 20 Matinee and Night the latest methods of industrial ef ficiency reach the maximum of slaugh ter and destruction; 2 Among the living a growing determination to abolish war for the sake of those who gave their lives to end it." "Nothing," Says Jordan David Starr Jordan, chancellor emeritus of Leland Stanford Jr., uni versity : "In the aggregate, nothing what ever. In detad: 1 the downfall of three imperial autocracies: 2 The puncture of a pasteboard kaiser; 3 A slowly rising idea of international solidarity and the resolve that it shall not happen again; 4 The certainty that there arc no 'Fruits of Victory' worth their cost; 5 The certainty that war brings no 'survival of the fittest,' but of those that never fit, a result which will show itself for generations." John Maynnrd Keyes, English eco nomist and author of "Econoralf Consequences of the Peace": "I don't know." American Soldier Speaks American soldier, number 1,000.000. who served in the ranks throughout the war and is now a staff sergeant: "Although we caunot claim that, as a result of the -world- war, the world has been made 'safe for democ racy,' at is apparent that the Amer ican principle that 'governments de rive their just powers from the con sent of the governed,' has been for the first time, impressed upon Euro pean minds." William Allen White, Kansas edi tor: "The gain came in self-respect for the working man and the man of small means and his womenfolks. And it cut bhrough nationalities with out respect to allies or central powers. In that much democracy has gained and will never go back." Inspiration Only Bonefit "The only gain to humanity from the world war, as far as I can sec now, was the inspiration that. .comes from the supreme valor of youth and its ready sacrifice for ideals higher than self-interest." Sir Arthur W. Currle, commander-in-chief of tne Canadian expeditionary forces: "By the world war we gained a truer appreciation nnd a better real ization of war's unspeakable waste, its dreadful hardships, its cruel slaughter and its aftermath of lone liness, sorrow and broken hearts. We now know that as n means for solving the world's problems and removing international discord war is a delu "Young' Ideas" Starring LAURA LA PLANTE The bewitching: be-dimpled blonde, who's fascinating beauty and mischievous personality puts pep into this de lightful farce-comedv. sion and a HeH Far U 6 PartteHpatlBit General Ueary T AuVu, ntaiwand lug American arm of uevtaualiuat "The World has seea llint the Im pious creeds that might makes tight, and that th state n the hitt& Huu uf potter stands above law, have been urertlirowu.

Lenine, Embalmed,. Shown to Americans MOSCOW, Aug. 4. (UP)) The body of Nikolai Lenine, former Soviet premier,, which restB on a brilliant red velvet bier in a hermiticnlly sealed glnss.covered coffin, wau exhibited to American nnd other foreign newspa permen yesterday. The embnlmers appear to have Accomplished some thing of a scientific miracle in fortify ing the tissues of the dead Soviet leader n gainst dissolution. All who knew Lenine in life say that in death he looks as natural and serene as on the day of his death. - Medical experts say that - neither wax nor any coloring material was used. If no marked change in tem perature occurred in the tomb, said Professor Sbarski, ' Lenine's body should last forever. ( " Frbfessor Hharski said fthe entire cost of embalming the body of Lenine waa only $7300, in striking contrnst to the fortunes the Egyptians spent on the bodies of their pharoahs, nobles and high priests.

"LaFollctte and Wheeler will win, hands down." predicted Frank Mor- j rison. secretary of the A. F. of I ( Thus far the executive council's in dorsement has beep confined strictly to l.aFollette and YViieeler und their1 platforms; with the -emphatic declara tion that it was not to bo construed as an .endorsement of any thu d party. The adopted report of the A. F. of L.. national non-partisan political campaign set forth that it had turned to the platform of the Cleveland con ference for progressive political ac tion and that convention's candidates because of republican nnd democratic parties had turned deaf ears and a blind eye upon, labor delegates who appeared before tiicir respective plat form committees. Democrats Evasivo. Says. "The democratic convention had been evasive," the 'republican con vention arrogant" and both "had flaunted the desires of labor," it as serted. lteside, in the language oL the re port, "both parties are in a condition of moral bankruptcy. Machine politic-inns have brought upon our country moral obliquity and unashamed be trayal." Iu vivid contrast to the attitude of the major parties, it is t-et forth that the Cleveland conference of indepen dents wrote into its platform, at the behest of labor, eight pledges, Includ ing the most desirable of the A. F. of L. tfet projects.JAnd the candidal of the Independent sentiment. LoFollette and Wheeler "have throughout their whole political careers stood stead fastly in defense of tiic rights and in terests of wage-earners nnd farmers." In it's work today, the executive council will follow the general course charged in the report of its political committee. It will seek (o maintain the non-partican stand adhered to by the A. Pa of L.since 1000. U.S. OF WASHINGTON, Aur. 4.
