The members of the special commission, F. C. Sehwedtman and James A.

Emery, brought back with them a collection of colored charts and diagrams especially prepared for the national association of manufacturers by. German government experts.

Speaks on Duty of United States on Armaments. BRAINTREE, Nov 27 That Boston, with its harbor fortifications removed, would be safer from a sea Attack in case of war than it is at the present time, was the contention of Dr Benjamin F. Trueblood, secretary of the American peace society, at the meeting of the Braintree forum this afternoon. The reference to Boston came as tae result of a question put to him concerning the advisability of fortifying the Panama oanal. Dr Trueblood was opposed to fortifying the Ho said the second Hague conference laid down the rule, which is now international law, that unfortified seacoast cities and towns shall not be bombarded from the sea.

With theends of the canal unfortified, he said, they would be safe from any attack by a foreign naval power. Once let the entrances be fortified they would.be liable to attack in case of war a z.i could be attacked miles distant, present-day battleships. This same rule held good, he said, to Boston, New York or any Other seacoast city. Dr Trueblood spoke on "The Duty of the United States With Regard to the Limitation of Armaments. The actual debt of the world, he said, had been increased from $500,000, Ou) to in the last 35 years by the support of militarism in all its forms.

Cost of Armaments. With this amount of money, he said, used in other channels, the poverty of the world could be abolished. In our own country we have Increased the cost of our navy from $31,000 000, the amount spent prior tp the Spanish war, to $136,000,090 today. Our army, navy and fortifications cost us a ear, and added to this, as a reminder of war, we pay $160,060,000 for pensions. To support the army aid navy costs $12 a family, and if you added the pension list the co3t is $22 a family.

At the present time, in Europe, Dr Trueblood said, the workingmen are almost on the point of taking this matter of making war into their own hands. If the workingmen go on strike against war, as seems likely, there will be no wars. The United States, said Dr Trueblood, should take the lead in fhe movement to arrest armament for several reasons. Borne nation must lead and we ought to do It because of the character of our national, life and institutions. The people here are the rulers of this country and are the ultimate source of authority, and our nation which believes in liberty and freedom ought to take the lead in this great movement which means the freeing of the world from a terrible military and unnecessary tax.

Chances of the Japanese. Referring to the oft-repeated suggestions that foreign powers would send their ships over the oceans to 'fight us if we didnt have a big navy. Dr Trueblood said such a thing was impossible because the fastebattleshipe built nowadays would have no coal left to maneuver with after they reached this side. Referring to the Japanese scare, he alluded to the statements made repeatedly by a well-known congressman as not even respectable nonsense. The Japanese, he said, could not bring oyer transports enough to- land 1,600,060 on the Pacific coast, as had been suggested, and could not bring coal enough to enable its battleships to do any effective work after it got here.

Speaking of the German scare Ui South America, which is used every little while by members of congress, i)r Trueblood said there was nothing to be alarmed at. The Germans in 'South America, he said, were there to escape the burdens of mllltiaism of Germany and not to take up new military burdens for her. Germany, he said, is a mighty nation, a peace-loving nation. Germany neve began a war in modem times and though her -ruler has been called the "war lord, he is one of the greatest factors for peace in Europe today. Would Reduce- Standing Army.

Df Trueblood said he was in favor of reducing the standing army to 25,000 men, as it was for many years after the civil war and for a reduction in the size of the navy. He did not suggest stopping the building of warships altogether, but would limit the building to one ship a year, so that each year a new ship would take the place of one going out of the service, thereby keep-, ing the navy at an equal standing all the time. Things hre shaping themselves along this line, the speaker said. Ex-President Roosevelt wanted congress to build four battleships a year and congress cut the program down to two and he thought the next move woujd be to reduce the number to one. He suggested that the present high cost of living was dependent, in a measure, on the enormous expenditures made each year for the support of the army and navy, and he said if the question was submitted to a popular vote he thought the people would vote 5 to 1 against the building of another dreadnaught.

Referring to the Panama canal. Dr Trueblood said, in addition to his reference about Boston, that as a means of national defence the canal unfortified will be safer than the canal fortified The modern dreadnaught, he claimed, could lay miles off the shore and bombard and destroy the entrances to the canal argl would at least attempt to do so in case of war If the canal entrances were fortified. If the canal -was not fortified and this country should become involved in war with another nation, the canal would be safe bv reason of the provisions adopted at the second Hague peace convention and no nation would raise a gun against it. At the close of his address Dr Trueblood answered a number of questions on the subjecL COMMISSION MEETS TODAY. Study of the Issue of Securities by Corporations Will Begin at Washington.

WASHINGTON, Nov 27 The security commission will begin a seriesof hear, ings here tomorrow. Pres Hadley and all the members have arrived and are ready for the duties devolving upon them. Two of the interstate commerce commission will be first witnesses. From them it is expected, to learn the attitude and views of the commission. The security commission is charged with the difficult task of devising some plan whereby the issuance of stocks and bonds by interstate corporations may be placed under federal oentrol and future over-capitalization Prevented.

When the railroad legislation was enacted at the last session of congress it was found impossible to agree on any plan to regulate the Issue and sale of securities.

8 P. BOSTON PUBLIC LIBRARY SuM FAMILY OF NATIONS IS BEING ORGANIZED Edwin D's Mead Declares in South Church Lecture. Hague Tribunal Germ of Worlds SuprameCouiVHe Says, Edwin D. Mead gave" the first of a series of Sunday addresses on "Met) Who Have Worked to Organize the World before the citizenship class at the South' Congregational church yesterday noon. The special subject of this first address was Dantes Dream of a Universal fcmpire, the (hen Whose services are to be reviewed In the subsequent addresses being Henry IV, Huga Giotius, William Perm, Maneul Kant and Charles Sumner.

"The commanding cause of our time," said Mr is the supplanting of the war system in the settlement of disputes between nations by the system of justice and reason. The family of nations is today being organized as a century and a quarter ago this family of American states was organized. The Hague tribunal is the germ of the supreme court of the world and The Hague conference will rapidly develop into the parliament of the world. "Two great steps were taken in the United States this year when our President declared that all differences whatever between nations should be arbitrated with none of the foolish old reservations In treaties of so-called questions of honor; and when our congress authorized the creation of an official commission on the limitations of armaments, urging as a step to this the transformation of the rival national navies into one international force for the preservation of the general peace and order. As the great peace movement seems thus to approach its culmination It is useful and grateful to survey the work of Its great pioneers in the centuries before us.

1 Dante, who has been called the voice of 10 silent centuries, was also called by Mr Mead the first modern man; and his life and the character of his great poem ard his various religious and literary rices were rapidly outlined. Ills political Interests and activites were treated more In detail, the chaotic general political condition of Europe, and of Italy in particular, being de scribed. Dante believed that order could come only through some improved Roman empire, and as an argument for this, his famous political tractate, De Mon-archia, was dtvoted. To the discussion of the purpose and scope of this remarkable orophecy and program of world unity the address was chletiy devoted. Many of its details are now antiquated and seem to us fanciful; but its central principles -were pronounced yby the speaker to be atill po'ent and guiding motives with the men who work today to organize the world.

"We dream no longer of a restored and idealized Roman empire, said Mr Mead, but we see with Dante that peace can come only with justice, and that Justice can be assured and administered only by recognized central authority, an authority which we, through Hague conferences and the rest, are seeking to establish by some kind of world federation. Dante held that the state, like the church, rested upon independent and divine foundations, ana that the state in no way depended upon the church fo its authority; s.nd he was thus a great precursor of the modern view of the proper relations of the church and sttte. But politics, he also held, is only doing its work rightly when it seeks to bring all human institutions and endeavors into conformity with religious principles and the divine law. KILLS WIFE AND SELF. Lemuel a Railroad Carpen- ter at Albany, Believed to Been Deranged.

ALBANY, Nov 27 Lemuel Harmon, aged 52, shot and killed his wife and himself at their home last night. Their bodies were found early today by Frank Harmon, their 18-year-old son. Harmon was a carpenter in the West Albany shops of the New York Central railroad company. His friends say he had acted strangely for two years, following recovery from a serious illness.

The Indorsement, which is signed by all the physiciyis of Norwood, is as follows: 4 "In response to the call of the hospital committee of the Norwood business association, a meeting of the Norwood physicians was held. It- was the unanimous opinion of those present that the medical profession should give this movement its hearty approval.

"Accordingly the undersigned wish to state their belief that there is much need of a local hospital and that it will accomplish much good in the conservation of the health and lives not our people. -S3V, 1 Ju 1 JAMES M. FOLAN, Chairman of the Committee on Town Hospital, Appointed by the Norwood Business Association. It the public recognize Its advisability and desire it there is no question that the hospital will soon become a fact. "Therefore, we wish to advise its establishment and each and all of us will do our best to make it a success, and thus fill in good measure this great need of our The signatures of the physicians in the town follow.

Chairman James M. Folan of the committee, who was the originator of the plan for a town hospital, and through whose efforts it was indorsed by the business association, believes that the physicians indorsement makes the hospital assured. He said to a Globe representative: A large number of Norwood, West-wood and Walpole people have expressed to the Committee their pleasure at the prospect of a hospital, and would gladly cooperate in every way possible to make the institution a success. This expression comes from prominent people of ail three communities, some of whom are well able to make substantial donations. "One of the questions asked the committee is; Where are you going to locate the hospital? "The committee do not feel that It is a part of their duty to select a location.

That matter should be determined by the regularly elected representatives of the corporation, whose power will be derived from some recognized authority The committee do not feel that they would be acting judiciously in assuming responsibility along the lines of selecting a location, determining the size or kind of building, the capacity of the institution or the scope of its undertaking. "Bringing the matter before the public in a general way, such as determining the desirability of a hospital, the grouping of the several interests of Norwood, Westwood and Walpole into a business proposition and the preliminary work for organization and incorporation will cover all that the committee is expected to do. "Any suggestions that any citizen may desire to offer for the furtherance of, the undertaking will be cheerfully received by the members of the committee. That a hospital is needed in town is proved conclusievly by the number of people who say they hope it will be established soon. However, to complete all arrangements will require a great deal of effort and some little time.

ENFORCED VACATION. Washington and Lee University Declares Christmas Holidays on Account of a Case of Typhoid. LEXINGTON, Va, Nov 27 Christmas holidays will begin at Washington and Lee university at Once, because of the development during the past week -of several cases of typhoid fever. Most of the fall term has been completed and the winter term will begin as announced on Jan 3. The cause of the fever epidemic now Is supposed to be the periodic turning off of the town water supply during the dry season.

This has been corrected, however, and an additional supply -of water has been obtained. TWO UNJUST BURDENS. Insurance Investigators Asked to Inquire Into Commissions and State Taxes. NEW YORK, Nov 27 The Merchants association of New York, in a letter made public tonight, asks the legislative investigating committee to include in Its inquiries the high commissions pad by fire insurance companies to agents and the state taxes imposed on the companies. Both of these items, it is urged, fail as burdens on the policy holder.

"Of the premiums paid by insurers, says the letter, "from 5 percent to percent is paid by insurance companies as commissions to agents and brokers for securing business. The great disparity between the cost of selling insurance and the cost of selling merchandise raises the question whether the existing system and the scale of commissions do not impose an excessive and unnecessary burden upon the premium payer, without any corresponding benefit to the insuring companies, and whether the existing system might not be so modified as to materially reduce the loading which each policy now carries by reason of the large cost of commissions. Concerning the taxation of insurance companies, the letter says: "The imposition upon the business of insurance of taxes for revenue is opposed to sound principles of taxation. Any taxation -beyond the sum necessary to pay the cost of regulation is unreasonable and unjust and Bhould be abolished. At present ft corporation tax Is exacted from insurance companies which the state derived during the last fiscal year tl.236,973.

The authorities of every municipality in the stkte having a fire department are likewise empowered to impose a tax of two percent on the gross premiums derived frojn all insurance business transacted by foreign companies within that municipality. The aggregate during the last fiscal year was $1,965,000, while the total cost of conducting the state insurance department waa about 226,000 during the same period. Thus, the state derived a net revenue of about $1,739,000, 11,445,000 BALES. Final Estimate Made of the Cotton Crop of 1910.

CORDOVA, Alaska, Nov 27 Although several prospectors and loggers wei at work along the shores of the Behring river when the glacial flood swept down the valley several days ago, the forestry department believes that no lives were lost. The high hills that border the river made It easy for the prospectors and homesteaders to out of the danger zone.

Forest ranger Johnson will leave Cordova next week for a tour of the flood-swept district to ascertain the extent of the damage. He will try to determine the origin of the ftobd.

Those with conditions in that district believe the action of the glacier cut under, the rim of one or more of these lakes, causing them to empty with a rush into the valley below, The chain, of lakes is 10 miles long. The lakes are about a quarter of a mile wide and have an average depth of 200 feet.

WOMENS CLUBS BETTER. Rev Dr Aked of New York Says at Least They Have an Object Though They Do Not Attain It NEW YORK, Nov 27 Womens clubs are superior to mens clubs, thinks Dr Charles F. Aked, pastor. of the 5th-av Baptist church. A mans club is for personal ease, good, cooking and good company, he said In his sermon today.

Womens clubs of this country, so striking a feature in our national life, are organized for work. It may be for education, or propaganda, or charity or philanthropy. They have not always lived up to their professions, a peculiarity which they share with churches, but at least they have in view something -more than a-comfortable chair, and a well-cooked chop. Our churches are generally manned' by women. There Is not a church in existence today which would be in existence but for love and yearnings of a woman's heart.
