MILITARISM IS MENACE TO WHOLE NATION

"This cation is on the verge of militarism," declared Dr. 0. Edward Janney last night at the closing session of the Friends' school at the North A street meeting house. "Preparedness leads inevitably in this direction, and this means a change in the ideals of our people which will destroy us as a republic. "The president says he sees no signs of militarism in our country, but the present efforts towards general military training, the increase in the army and navy, the proposed censorship of the press are sufficient. What Prolongs tht VVar. "The differences with Germany would not have occurred had we not cent ship loads of wax material to their enemies, while the present 'troubles with Mexico have grown out of former military blunders with the unfortunate neighbor. "The present craze for military preparedness should be replaced by reliance upon the saving power of God. Christ Is more powerful than Mars." "A great Englishman, Lord Kitchener, himself a victim of the present war, stated it to be his belief that while many terrible events had occurred during this war, Euch as the invasion of Belgium, the calling of a treaty a 'scrap of paper,' and the destruction of the Lulstania, the most serious evil of them all is the threatened effort of the United States to increase the army and navy, since this would show that this nation had adopted the Prussian idea and would lose its prestige as a fpower for peace."
