Mr. Cason read an essry on the subject Of

The essayist seemed to think that wars
were often necessary, and when nation felt
disposed TO fight, that any attempts at arbitra.
tion would fail
He thought that while wars often resulted
In great good to the human race, yet he ad'
mitted that it was always true that 1t was q
hardship 10 The individual soldier and his
family.
The essayst cited various battles which
had, he thought Influenced the eligion and
civilization OF the world.
The members who discussed the essay,
thoroughly endorsed the essayist In the opin-
ion that wars were necessary, and we believe
some went further than he did In diScredit-
ing the beneficial Influence OF international
Arbitration.
The peace policy had but few spokesmen n.
though many members made no expression
OF opinion, some of whom ut least were In
favor OF making all proper efforts to arbitrate
before resorting TO war.
