dispatch says the greatest Socialist
demonstration ever seen in Scandi

on May Day. The demonstration
was brought to a peaceful conclusion,
although the result had been an
ticipated with anxiety and nervous

Great crowds assembled in the
streets of Stockholm, carrying ban- j
ners with inscriptions demanding I
more food and better conditions of J
life. Hundreds of children with
peace banners participated and or- '
der was maintained by special police j
appointed by the workers.
The parade was headed by Hjalmar '
Brantlng, the Swedish Socialist lead- j
er, Pieter Troolstra, head of the :
Socialist International Bureau, and j
Camllle Huysmans. secretary of the ;
Internationl Bureau. The procession
passed along the main streets, the
enormous crowd singing the Mar
seillaise and the Internationale. A
mass meeting was held outside the
city, where the leading Socialists
made speeches, stating the demands
of the working classes.

Some of those who have' vigorously
opposed an early expeditionary force

Up to Allies
The amount ot tonnage that would
be required for transport is usually
put at about twenty tons per man in
la fully equipped force. For the regu-1
lar American unit of 24,000 men, 1
nearly half a million tons therefore,
would be necessary, or ships about
equal to the seized German tonnage
in American waters. It remains for j
the allies to figure out if they can
afTord to divert that amount of ship
ping.
lattle doubt exists that the French
will gladly put up with any sacrifice
necessary to have American troops in
France, as the great plea of their
mission has been for troops with the
American flag. They have pointed
out that this is needed to convince
the Germans beyond doubt that all
! America's resources have been
|thrown into the battle.
French Arc Eager
The British also arc known to be
anxious to have American troops in
France as a final earnest of American
participation, but there is reason to
believe that they have, taUen a some
what more detached View than the
French. Overcome by the whole
heartedness of American co-opera
tion in the war, they believe that
the one essential is to marshal the
common resources to the greatest
advantage. With theilr responsibility
for tonnage, their decision about the
(advisability of sending an expedltlon
j ary force is uncertain. •
