The greatest menace to the nation 20
day is IN the division threatened be-
tween different classes of citizens. Soma
differences arise through mlsunder-
standing. In some places there Is a
division between capital and labor, Diff
felences exist between different nation
aHtlcs. In some places religious feeling
how fostered. the sentiment of the
country should be against such differ

peril. War between factions Is as fatal
as war between sections, IN our sec-
tons there should be neither factions
nor sections
