Carnegie Endowment Fund for inter
national peace has provided ample
means for distributing broadcast
throughout the world facts and figures
which prove this. Gradually interna-
tional public opinion will demand gen.
eral disarming of the nations of the
earth.
When the public opinion of the
world has thus been won over by the
advocates of peace, when mankind al
last shall substitute law, justice and
love for might and force and hatred,
then the vision of the old prophet OF
God shall be a reality and the
words of the English poet which are
also prophetic, will be descriptive of
a world devoted to the peace and the
true progress and development of the
human family:
For I dipped into the future far as
human eye could see,
Saw the vision of the world and all
the wonders that would be;
Saw the heavens fill with commerce,
argosies of magic sails,
Pilots of the purple twilight, drop
ping down with costly bales;
Heard the heavens fill with shouting,
and there came a CHASTITY dew
From the nations airy navies Crap
ping in the central blue;
Far along the worldwide whisper Of
the south-wind rushing warm,
With the standards of the people
plunging through the thunder
storm;
Till the war-drums throbb'd no longer
and the battle flags were furl'd
In the parliament of man, the fedora
ton of the world
There the common sense of most
shall hold fretful realm in
awe,
And the kindly earth shall slumber
Tapped in universal law"

The investigation of w. L.

 It is stated that the report will be read by the commissioners but will not be given out for publication for several days. The investigation has been car ried on by Mir Upton and it is said to have been very comprehensive.
