SCORED BY PALWIER
Attorney General Says Condi
tions Have Changed Since
Washington's Time
PRAISES GOVERNOR SPROUL
By a Staff Correspondent
Harrisburg, June 25. Opponents of
the league of nations were scored by
Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer
last night in an address before the state
Senate.
The attorney general did not men
tion the league of nations, but there
was no mistaking what and who his
attacks were aimed at.
Another portion of the attorney gen
eral's remarks were interpreted as an
indorsement of the administration's
anti-sedition bill.
Judge Bonnlwell, Municipal Court.
Philadelphia, Democratic gubernatorial
candidate Inst November, made public a
letter Monday night before the vote on
the bill was taken, severely attacking
that measure.
In his letter Judge Bonniwell men
tioned Attorney General Palmer and
Vance C. McCormick for falling to op
pose the bill as Democratic leaders,
and declared they had "abandoned their
functions."
Itegarding the league of nations, the
attorney general said:
"We must agree that the world has
indeed become small. Means of trans
portation nnd means of communication
have made this world n little world.
Why a new revolution in Russia tonight,
an outbreak in northern Siberia today
the discovery of a new diamond mine
on the west coast of Africa, the pas
sage of a reform measure in the Par
liament of New Zealand today will be
all matters of interest because read and
known by civilized men everywhere at
their breakfast tables tomorrow.
Men Refuse to Sec Conditions
"These are conditions which the war
has brought about and the perfections
of inventions which the war demanded
has made more apparent to the people
of the world that they are conditions we
must consider whenever we undertake
to legislate for state and nation in the
future, and yet there are men who re
fuse to see them.
"There are men who still argue for
the old doctrine of aloofness from the
rest of the world. There are men who
say they subscribe to a spirit of na
tionalism, which is nothing but a con
fession of ignorance of present world
conditions.
"America is so close to Europe, to
close to the Orient, that n war in the
Balkan states or an uprising in China
affects our interests as they never could
before.
"Iu Washington's day when he ar
gued that we should attend to our own
knitting, stay here at home and be
careful not to mix in the affairs across
the sea, London was four months away.
Today London is nearer to Washington
than Mount Vernon was to the site of
Washington when the father of his
country lived there.
"We have got to remember theft
things and realize that our peace, our
happiness and our prosperity depend
upon the peace, happiness and pros
perity of the rest of the world and
we can no longer play the laggard part,
as we have entangled ourselves with
European affairs by sending the great
est army the world has ever known
to settle the greatest war in history.
Have Always Fought for Peace
"So we must mix in the world's
affairs by sending the power of the
American people for peace into eery
corner of the world. The thing! for i
which we fought when America went' Millionaire Charged With Intlmldat

In opening his remarks he paid a

"a. creditable work" in passing radical
changes in present-day laws through
a peaceful method.
HAMBURG RIOTERS KILLED

Disarm Them
Copenhagen, June 25. (By A. P.)
Serious rioting occurred at Hamburg
on Monday and Tuesday when mobs at

being alleged that thc bodies of dogs

its office wrecked.
The mob tried to disarm troops

Paris, June 23. Premier Clemenceau
appeared in the lobby of the Chamber
of Deputies yesterday and members

sible date, possibly late in September
or early in October. He said that the
government's principal concern at pres
ent was demobilization.
"Although it is desired that demobili

as possible, the government Is obliged
