IS GIVEN PRAISE
Canadian Editor Speaks on "The
Identity Of Interests Of the
Two Countries.
OTHER THINGS BESIDE WAR
Are to Be Fought Out He Says, Most
Principally the Physical and
Moral Aspects.

st. Louis, May 3.-'Canada and
the United States have set the
world the example of new kind of
international relation said John
Lewis. editor of the Toronto Star. at
the Fourth American Peace Congress
here today. Mr.. Lewis spoke ON
THE Identity of the Interests of the
United States and Canada"
"The modern peace movement is
not visionary Or sentimental, neither
is it who ly based upon business in
trests.' said Mr.. Lewis. 1T is sim
ply part OF the progress of civili-
zation. 1t advances with the grow
ing recognition that the true inter-
ests of nations are not conflicting,
but Identical. The more usefully
COVE nments and nations are en-
pioyed. the less they have to fight
about.
aThe growing interests of gov
ernments In social reform is one OF
1.-The, forces making for peace. The
international gatherings of scien-
fists and others having common in
terests are the beginnings OF the
parliament of man. The scientist
who Is seeking cure for tuberlu-
losis in Germany can have no ra-
tieRai cause OF quarrel with the
| man who Is seeking A cure for tuber-
cufosis In France. In Canada or in
the United States, we men and gov
ernments are busy in fighting dis
ease, dirt, insect pests and weeds in
the physical worldA-crirne and ig-
norance. and injustice In the moral
wor d. The more society concerns
itself with these things, the less the
danger of war In these conflicts
also will be found the true outlet
for human energy and human com
bativeness. The militants are righi
when they say that action and con
fiict are necessary for the full de
velopment of human character. bu
they are after the wrong enemies.
Man has no natural enmity will
man. His worst enemy is withir
himself, and just so the worst enc
| mics of a state are within the state
The broad conception of patriotism
lis public service as contrasted will
selfishness, and there is no reasor
Iwhy public service should stop at {
national boundary or why the-,
should not be patriotic citizen o
the world.
| Canada and the United State:
have set the word the example OF ;
Inew kind Of international relation
i Disputes far more serious than thos,
that have led to war elsewhere hav,
been settled by arbitration. But W,
must not be satisfied with a mer,
negative advantage, freedom from
war and from the apprehension o
war. We must make full use of ou
exceptional advantages. We mus
look. not backward to the year 1913
but forward to 20l3.
"The three stages of development
may be thus indicated-in 1913
war. in 1913, peace. in 2013, friend
ship and active cooperation in so
cial reform, inspired by all tn
courage and energy which wer
once devoted to war. Our anniver
sary celebration should be no

Jefferson City, Mo-. May s.
John Fl. Nolen, land reclamation
commissioner, announced tonight ar
rangements have been perfected for
the organization of the second larg-
est drainage district In the United
States. Preliminaries for the or
ganization were threshed out AZ
Sikeston yesterday.
rt'rhe plan Of landowners Is to
build continuous Ievee from Com
merce, in Scott county. south along
the Mississippi river to the Arkansas
line for the protection of 100000
acres of land located in Scott. Mis-
sissippi and New Madrid counties,
Nolen said.
This land was oyerfiowed last
year, with heavy losses TO the
farmers"
Discussing the proposed improve
ment. Nolen said:
ut Is believed that the major
portion, If not all, the cost of this
llevee will be paid for by the Mis-
sissippi River Commission out OF
funds appropriated by Congress for
river improvement. The land own
ers will construct the necessary i'm
ternal levees, bitches and foodways
to drain the land The total cost OF
llevees, bitches, floodways and other
works will amount to not more than
So, 500, 900, OF which amount about
Isl, ,225,000 will be expended for
flesee building.
THE land is protected on the
north by the Commerce hills and on
! the west by Sikeston Ridge, leaving
only the eastern side exposed to the
river. Practically no water runs
| into the districts from the upland,
leaving only the rainfall to be cared
for b. drainage. The cost per acre
to the landowners. in case the
levee is built by the River Commits
sion. will not exceed So per acre,
and the land when drained and pro-
tected will be worth an average Of
500 per acre.
"A board composed of three OF
the most eminent drainage engineers
in the United States will be en-
ployed to work out the details OF
the scheme The ST. Johns Leyes

TAKEN FROM WILSON'S
INAUGURAL ADDRESS

The success Of a party means little
except when the nation Is using that
party for a large and definite purpose.
The great government we love has
too often been used for private and
selfish purposes, and those who used
IL have forgotten the people.
We have studied as perhaps no 9TH
er nation has the most effective means
Of production, but we have not studied
cost Of economy as we should either
as organizers Of Industry. as states
men,. or as Individuals.
Society mist see TO Il that Il does
not crush or weaken or damage Its
own constituent part.
The first duty OF law Is to keep
sound n society IL serves.
This is the high enterprise Of the
new day; to lift everything that on
