ist King Replies.
DETROIT, Mich., June 29.-Vltty
delegntes.t,o tho convention of thp Dis
abled American Voterans of tlio World
War Invaded the1 socialist national
convention Bhorlly after noon today
and warned the socialists that the
veterans are ready "to fight again to
defend the flag against sedition, dis
loyalty and treason." . .
Ralph Horr, of Seattle, who led the
invading veterans told the socialists
that advocates of force would bo mot
with force and invited the radicals to
"step outside if they wanted to fight
for their beliefs."
Horr quoted from printed remarks
of J. Lou Engdahl to the general effect
that his section of the party would
fight "not as 100 per cent Americans,
but under the red flag of International
Bocialism."
"I hope these reports do not repre
sent the sentiment of your conven
tion," said Horr, "but if they do we
have come to tell you that It Is our
Intention to deal with these people.
We have had occasion in Seattlo to
use machine guns to stamp out disloy
alty, sedition and treason and those
guns can be used again."
Socialists Replies
Cameron King, socialist delegate
from California replied in behalf of the
socialists. . ... ...
. "We appreciate the sacrifices the
disabled veterans of the world war
havo made," he said, "we understand
the impulses that drove you to that
sacrifice. At the same time wo have
mado sacrifices. We did not believe
when war was declared that it was a
just war and because Ve so believed
many of our comrades havo been im
prisoned. As American citizens we
claim the right of free speech and free
assmbly and we are going to stand on
those rights."
The visit of the veterans was made
without disorder. After the talks were
made the former soldiers withdrew.

JAP ALLIANCE
!S CONDEMNED
BY
LONDON, Juno 29. (Canadian
Press.) The Anglo-Japanese alliance
is not to bo renewed in Its present
form it has already been made
abundantly clear, .although the dis
cussion of the treaty by tho confer
ence of British premiers has just bo
gun. While Arthur J. Balfour and Lord
Curzon, tho only members of the
conference this far who havo dealt
with the subject, used due diplomatic
caution in their speeches, according
to information which may bo regard
ed as authoritative they left a clear
impression that while tho British
government would like to have some
form of understanding with Japan, it
is not inclined to continue tho present
purely military agreement.
Inasmuch; therefore, as Premier
Meighen of Canada and Premier
Smuts of South Africa will strongly
urge against an alliance of any kind,
but will advocate a Brltlsh-American-
Japancse understanding instead, the
clear prospect is that if the alliance
is ronewed at all it will bo little moro
than a shadow of Us former self.
Premier Meighen prepared for to
day's conference a stated case against
the alliance which, It is understood,
will be circulated in tho conference
as a confidential document.
General Smuts, of tho Union of
South Africa, who Is to follow, will
support Premlor Meighen and will, in
all likelihood, attack tho wholo for
eign policy of special alliances and
will urge, Instoad, a mutual under
standing with nations through moral
and intellectual sympathy.

field about 11 a. m. today, when Ser
