union movement In many Instances is
not simply t" persuade woi klnumen
outside the union to join the unions;
It i.s to make It impossible fur a man
to sceuie employment who Is not a
member of a union la Rood standing.
Instead or the unions beinu for the
men, a doetiine has ailsen which Is
5u ctfeil that the men must be tor

For Universal Peace.
AKKW days ago we gave place
on this puge to the rail Issued
lo the women or the ('tilted
States by Alis. May Wilght
Sewall. pic-ldeat or the International
Council or Women, to hold demonstia
tions late in this month everywheie In
the Inlet ests or unlveisal Intel national
lieace for bilnglng in the reign or ion

Nicola! or Eunice, now in Philadelphia,
wlio says she piefeis while In Ameiica
to be known simply as Madame Nico
la!. The Bulletin, of The cltv named,
sa.s that she wants lo cany the move
ment lo a much higher plane or en
thusiasm and piaotleal puiposo than
that indicated lu Mis. Sewall'.s inu
gi amine.
The Miillellu gives an Interview with
Madame Nleolai concerning her plan,
which Is best elucidated by her own
statement, which we heiewltb uiiote.
The time nppaieiitly has not ai lived
lor the aihitiament or war to cease;
but The Hague lonfeienre nun ked a
step io a plane wheie the nations be
gan at least to look towaids the time
when "nation shall not take up swotd
against nation, neither shall they learn
war any more." Madame Nleolai looks,
with puiposerul eneigy, to the I'nited
Stales as the leader in the mm eh of
piogiess towaids that end. She says:
"America stands todav lu the eyes of
the woild as Fiatue did in the leign
or I.uiils XVI. All lountrles watch Its
varying opiesslons and anticipate Its
glowing power. But tlie led band of
war shadows the tutuie, "What Its
handwriting will be depends on the
piesenl. 1 am not icl'eniiig lo the
Philippine conflict. I am thinking or
Alaska and the rootpi lilts that Sibeila
may take towaid Its boundary lines. It
was the young cai Inn's Inlluence that
made Russia speak out for peace not
long ago, but Russia Is not making
piep.uatlons lor peace.
"It s fioni America that the Hist
clear, luminous wind must come.
Ki ante may speak the second, Two
inlluence may hasten It. Women In
national otgaulzntion and new methods
of teaching hlstoiy lo young Ameii
caus. It is well to exalt wilor and
death for one's country, but side by
.side with the niaitlal tread of hlsloilc
events should he tanged the woiks that
are pncllle; the wilter who Inspired
men's leason, tlie artists who taught
them to love beauty In all Tonus, the
masteis who disclosed llie seciels and
applied them to Inventions of poweitul
machines. If history were tuught as
It should be taught, theie would be no
mine useiul auxiliary to ideas of
pi ace."
The Hiilletln gives the Infill million
that ihmugh all nations or the East
and the West Madnnie Nleolai has
liaveled to shape the thoughts thai
will llud e-pie.s.slon In the llrst steps
taken bv her Philadelphia associates
In the Alliance of Women for Pe.ien,
li nlso savs that a huge meeting of
icpivscntntlve women souti villi be
called by Madame Nleolai, who has
he'll appointed vleo-iiiesldent-U-large
lor Pennsylvania by the Alliance. A
committee will be appointed lo vt-lt
Was-lltligtnn and uige the appnininient
of a nationul boaul nf niblti'.-Zilon.
of whom should this boa id consist ;
