' Ever since the loss of Finland, however, Russia has been a traditional enemy of Sweden In the minds of many of the Swedish peo ple and It has been comparatively easy to arouse their fears. The wholesome fear on the part of liberals and socialists that the activist campaign might force a condition which would lead to war, was based partly upon the significant events in Sweden which Immediately preceded war. the outbreak of the European During the winter of 1913-1- 4 the agi tation against Russia and in favor of rtv........ military preparedness In Sweden had been carried on to such an extent that on February 6, 1914, 30,000 Swedish farmers, organized In what was called 4a "Bondetag" or "yeomen's march. - ' came to marched to the J , .

In order to perform tasks before It my navy must be not only maintained, but very considerably increased." King: Provokes Parliament. Thus the king spoke without previous consultation with the liberal government, headed by Karl Staaf, as prime minister. It was held by many of the liberals that the. king 'had flagrantly violated his constitutional lim itations and thereupon the ministry resigned. The king called upon Hjal-ma- r Hammarskjold, who formed a provisional government, not representing any political party, but known as "the king's cabinet." General elections were ordered and an exciting campaign was waged, the conservatives raising the war scare, the socialists calling upon the king to "resign" If he could do such a thing and the liberals attempting to keepln between. The result was that both conservatives and socialists made gains from ,the liberals, the socialists making by far the greater gains. There was talk of a compromise upen the king's policy, of armament when the European conflagration flared up. Party lines then were forgotten and the compromise government has existed to this day. In county council elections recently helci, however, the socialists, outspoken for peace and continued neutrality, have continued to make significant gains, bringing about the prediction that 1 . S4.85 when another general election is held the socialists will be able entirely to control the government. The socialists ""and liberals feared! -: there might be another "national demonstration" this year as in 1914, to Influence the king and his cabinet, but wiser counsels prevailed and it ia. felt now that the "activists have played their last card and need not be reckoned with again. There is no doubt that if the aotivists had succeeded in forcing Sweden into the war this country would have lost the support and sympathy of Scandinavia of the other Denmark and Norway. Ever since the conference at Copenhagen in March the three countries have been in agreement as to policies of neutrality and defense. They have agreed to act tointerest gether in matters of common to all, such, for instance, as the stoppage of Scandinavian malls in England, but if. Sweden had'hen led to attack Russia, by seizing 'tjr Aland islands, Denmark 4 Norway would have felt the quarrel was not the policy of an allied Scandinavia. Both Danish and Norwegian newspapers attributed th to German, inagitation in Sweden fluences and as both those"' countries are decisedly proentente, their position can easily be understood. There was much talk in Sweden also of German influence at court, due to the fact that, the Swedish queen waa a German princess, Victoria of Baden, a descendant of the Hohenzollerns. But in the crlsig the king demonstrated that he felt the Interests of Sweden were best served by neutrality and friendliness with all her neighbors and there is much happiness through all oi Sweden today. - two-thir- ds , v " PLAN.
