In the badly muddled peaco situation the weekly publication, New Europe, Injected a new sidelight, alleging that International financiers are now working for nn early peace to prevent the spread of socialism and revolution. The New Kurope, which has often been In tho possession of very nccurato Information regarding Interna tional politics, declared further that tho Roman Cnthollo Church Is Interested In tho early peaco movement. wo learn from an unimpeachable source that a decret conforcnCo of International financiers which recently took place In Switzerland was Inspired by somewhat different motives from those which were ascribed to It at the time," said New Kurope. "Acting purely In the Interests of capital. It nlmeil, above nil, at an Imme diate peace to arrest the growth of Inter national .Socialism iind tho rising tide of revolution throughout Kurope. Tho gather ing sought to forestall the holding of tho Stockholm Socialist conference by a direct arrangement between tho belligerents In which national claims would be entirely subordinated to Considerations of world wldo finance." While tho British (lovcrnment unques tionably will faco bitter attacks from a por tion of tho press and u largo element in Parliament unless It go"S squarely on record against tho Stockholm conference of Social ists, thero wero Indications today that tho ronrerence is winning rnvor. Tho wcet mlnster OazettB, for 'Instance, points out that while (Jcrmany takes ecry opportunity to open channels of communication with unolllclal opinion on peaco In enemy coun tries, tho British Oovernment closes Its doors to all such channels of communication. In this manner, , argues tho (lazctte, the Government loses' opportunities to counter act Insidious (Jcrman propaganda. Tho British I.aborltes, '"'in now favor sending representatives i tho Stockholm conference, nro encouraged by reports they have received from tho Russian Socialists. Tho Russians believe, that tho Gcrmnn So. clallsts really have tho upper hand nnd are In position to overthrow Prussian militarism and forco tho democratization of Germany whenover tho Allies Indicate a willingness to make peace Immediately after that Is done. British labor leaders, while accepting this theory with many grains of salt, feel that they should at least grant the Russian Socialists tho opportunity to expound their opinions. PARIS. Aug. 3.

Tho feeling Is growing In England that President Wilson might clarify peaco dis cussions by a "clean-cut declaration of American policy," tho London correspond ent of the New York Trlbuno reported to day "Tho day of bragging and boasting has passed," cabled the- Trlbuno correspondelit, "and. tho statesmen on both sides aro trying to let the people sco whero they are. In the last two months conditions have changed profoundly, and the future outlook Is com pletely nltercd. "America, flushed with enthusiasm and rightly engrossed with preparation for a. long wnr. Is In danger of falling out of touch with shifting sentiment on this side unless she follows tho political and dlplomatlo maneuvering with tho same Interests she devotes to developments on tho field of bat tle. "From various sides I have heard the sug. gestlon that what Is greatly needed now is a clean-cut declaration of American policy by President Wilson. Ho Ih urged to stato as definitely as posslblo what are America's alms. His olce would command attention above nil others, and his declaration would carry influence with the Central Powers as well as with tho Kntente. Indicting states, men for starting tho war does not interest tho people half so much ns declarations of tho terms on which tho nation Is ready to Btop tho strife," U. S. WILL STEER CLEAR OF PEACE CONFERENCES m r WASHINGTON, Aug. 3. The United States Is not going to be repre sented In tho forthcoming peace conferences In huropo, because we can get all th in formation on the subject we need In other ways. These words, coming from a high Gov ernment olnclal today, Indicate anew the attitude the Administration takes on un olllclal peace parleys. Until there Is some direct hope of tangible accomplishment from a conference tho United States will stick to her knitting. Today's dispatches from Kurope. somo of them describing pence sentiment in high nnd low places, and others calling on President Wilson for an expression of the basis on whlcji America will conclude peace with Germany, apparently met cool receptions In tho Ahlto House and nt the State Depart ment. No comment was obtainable at either place on any of tho advices. In view of the almost continuous stream of direct and Indirect ofilclal and unolllclal peaco talk that has been flowing from Lon don, Paris and Rome, as wU as from the Tcutonlo capitals, tho Administration's atti tude Is. today causing some surprise. It Is generally believed the Allied capitals have no objection whatever tn nenr ,n.n.,c. but that they rather encourage them, always .,,......, in,,!.,,, mat uny peace terms must Insure safety against later outbreaks of military autocracy. Little attention was expected to be paid to the subject of the peace conferences at to day s Cabinet meeting, Secretary of State Lansing not yet having returned from his vacation acd Secretary of War Baker hav ing gone to Nantucket for the week-end. MUST HIRE THEIR OWN BURGLAR CHASER Residents of Twenty-sixth Street Com plain of Shortage in Policemen Twenty residents of Twenty-sixth street, between Allegheny -avenue nnd Wlllard street, are paying Jl a month eacn to a special watchman to keep burglars away from their homes because the city doea not furnish them sufficient nollce Drotectlon. They have been dolnr this for some time, but now they are beginning to complain to the police department. Superintendent Robinson admits that there are not enough policemen to go around. There have been a number of robberies In the, neighborhood mentioned, th most recent being at the home of Mrs. Harry Mercur, I2ZS North Twenty-sixth street Her pocketbook and 157 were taken recently while she wag out of the house a ft.w minutes. Another woman Ulvng tn the block was robbed of a diamond rlnr and a fer other articles. WASHINGTON. Aug. 3. The Shipping Board Is to begin com mandeering all shipping now under con- structlon throughout tho country Imme diately. Tho board Is ready to nnnounco a program of taking over about two million tons of shipping now on the ways. The Philadelphia shipping district will furnish moro than 400,000 tons of the 2,000,000 commandeered. Tho New York Shipbuilding Company, Camden, will fur nish 200.000J the Sun Shipbuilding Com pany, 84,000 tons: Cramps, 71,000 tons, and the Hnrlan and llolllngsworth Com pany has 05,000 tons on tho ways, OTIinil VARUS AND TONNAOK Other shipyards to be taken over nnd tho nmount of shipping tonnago on their ways are: Newport Nows Shipbuilding Company, 8G.000 tons: Union Iron Works, San Fran cisco, 77,000 tons; Maryland Shipbuilding plant, 130.000 tons; Baltlmoro Drydock and Shipbuilding Company, 62,000 tons; Foro River Shipbuilding Company, SO 000 tons; Toledo Shipbuilding Company, 18,000 tons; Samuel Mooro Shipyards, Kilzabeth, N. J., 12,500 tons. Tho Great Lakes Engineering Company, of Detroit, also may bo taken over. Included among tho ships to bo taken over by the Government nro English, Nor wegian and vesseb of other nations. Jnpan awaits only word from tho United States to swing vast tonnago Into the At lantic to rcllovo tho shipping crisis, it was stated at the Japanese Embassy today. Tho question of returning tho ships to thoso Governments nfter they are completed under America's supervision Is to be left to tho State Department for adjustment later. Tin- yard1 will continue to bo operated by their present owners under Government direction. EXPECTED BY JAPAN Thus far no request for Japanese, ships has been mado, but Japan expects it will come and It Is likely she will nnswer. Already Japaneso shipping representatives In New York have been asked to submit detailed reports on tho extent to which Japan could respond to a request for ships In the Atlantic. "The answers received thus far are not particularly encouraging," a high ofilclal of tho embassy said today, "but I am Hiiro we could obviate that difficulty If an Ameri can request comes ns a basis un which to work. Japan, It was stated, has been Increas ing her tonnago at the rato of about 3,000, 000 tons a year and It Is admitted has mado enormous sums out of commerce slnco tho war began. President Wilson's embargo on steel Is In no way a Reprisal against Japan for not putting tonnage Into tho Atlantic, It was officially asserted today. A real shortage of steel caused tho em bargo, which will bo enforced until this Government determines Its own nteds and the wnr needs of Its Allies.. It was admitted, however, that later on this Government might bargain with Japan over sending steel to Japan In return for Japaneso shipping In tho Atlantic. The. emergency fleet program Ih rapidly taking shape under the new management of Chairman Hurley and General Manager Admiral Capps. Coincident with tho requisitioning of all American meitiiant ships constructed or on the ways, ' many wooden uteamera as posslblo are bmng contracted for. The steel export embargo also will result In moro steel ship plates for the fleet pro. gram. With the food embargo established, neutrals will be whipped Into giving the Shipping Board control of enormous tonnago In return for food cargoes to their coun-fles. HEADQUARTERS TRAIN GOING TO MT.

SOUTHERN FARMERS READY TO FIGHT DRAFT SAVANNAH, Ga Aug. 3. Farmers near Beulah Church, twelve miles from Blackshoar, Ga., have purchased firearms and a largo quantity of ammuni tion, determined, It Is said, "to keep their sons from being taken for tho nrmy," ac cording to reports received here shortly after noon today. Details aro lacking. WASHINGTON, AUg. 3. Reports of threatened armed resistance to tho army drafts In Isolated points of Georgia and western North Carolina nro be ing Investigated by tho Department of Jus tlco. Mountaineers nnd farmers In these re gions are reported to have supplied them selves with new Winchester rides nnd am munition to fight the draft. Special investigators have been assigned to makn a careful Inquiry and stern meas ures will bo taken to repress nny rebellion. The reports wero submitted by Internal revenue Agents nnd Immediately transmitted to tho Justice Department. They stato that speakers aro touring mountain nnd rural sections declaring tho draft law uncon stitutional and advising farmers and moun taineers to resist It. In North Carolina tho anti-draft scntlmont Is reported as "wide spread." A new and drastic ruling to cover "mar riage slackers" Is being prepared by the Goornment. After a conference with Secretary Baker, Provost Marshal General Crowder Is drafting a message to all State Governors on how to meet exemption claims following hastily contracted marriages. When tho boards get through with these claims there will be a smaller percentage of exemptions than have appeared likely In the first reports, Crowder said today, "Thus far," he declared, "not a single authenticated case of trickery attempted to evade the draft physical examination has reached me." He said he believed few would try to escape by self-inflicted Injury to the heart or eyes. The opposition to tho draft in the sections mentioned In the foregoing dispatches is attributed to the prppaganda of Socialist agitators and publications. Among the So cialist and radical publications circulated In the affected sections are the Melting Pot, In St. Louis; the Appeal to Reason, Glrard, Kan.; the Arizona Socialists' Bulletin, I'roe nlx, Ariz.; the Battle Axe, Danville, Va. ; the Jefferaonlan, Thompson, Oa. ; the Rebel, Halletsvllle, TeX. ; the Social Revolution, In St. Louis, and the Yellow Jacket, Moravian Falls,. .N.

The youngster swept far over the cnctry territory nnd then swooped bade, flying within n few feet of the ground. He spied a detachment of German Infnntry crossing n brldgo and promptly let lose with his ma chine gun. Utterly disregarding the hall of rifle fire, he circled back 'and forth, barely crtcr their heads, his machine gun rattling away. Ho saw four or flvo corpses beforo tho Germans gnve way and sought shelter In nearby ditches. The airman swooped arAund a little more, found his quarry too well covered up and then winged blithely on his way. Next ho swooped over an open motorcar on a wide ro.id, letting looie his machine gun flro nt an officer In the tonneau The mnrhlne turned Into a side road and Its driver opened wide tho "throttle. The of ficer turned against his ndversary a few feet aloft, and began firing with his auto matic revolver. Tho "war baby" felt ho couldn't bo so unsportsmanlike ns tn return tho German officer's feeble pistol fire with his machine gun, so ho stopped the latter ar.d from the air staged n revolver duel with tho flying enemy. Suddenly tho nutomobllc was Jam med to a, stop. The Ilrltlsh plane, fifty feet nbovo nnd twenty-five feet behind, could not stop, but the aviator hurriedly circled back. Then he saw his ndversary being hurriedly dragged Into n house. Meanwhile n perfect rain of nntl-aircraft shells and machine-gun bullets spat all nbout tho plane. Tho pilot twirled around a few times, shot high up Into the skies, disappeared Into the clouds, and by and by came home unhnrmed. Nearly all the aerial fighting on the day of aviation wonders, of which tho foregoing was Just an Incident, was at attitudes of less than 200 feet. The clouds hung so low that such flying had to bo at this level if tho aviators expected to see anj thing, Ono fight closo to tho first-line trenches began nt 200 feet nloft nnd ended nt fifty, when the llrltlsher forced tho German to .turn and sideslip down to earth.
