DR.. Jordan began his address by TAX
ing a text from General Sherman's
remarks to the effect that he was
tired Of war and bloodshed and that
the glory of it all was virtually a lie
He then quoted Theodore Roosevelt
who said that "It always pays for a
nation to be gentleman"
One Of the most important points
brought out by DR.. Jordan was that
the world is just waking up to the fact
that nearly all modern wars are
brought about by the money interests
of various countries! He contends that
all this talk of war between Japan
and United States is being Matched by
the money interests of Europe. In his
opinion, the present Balkan war is a
result of commercialism on the part
Of the big flnanciers of those coun-
tries. ~" 81
DR.. Jordan then took up the matters
that are to come before the Hague
Tribunal at the next meeting. One
Of the most important issues to come
before that body is the protection Of
private property on the high sea in
war time. Heretofore this has always
been considered the legitimate prey of
the nation able to seize it as booty.
To cut out interference with private
enterprises during the time of war

COAST LEAGUER'S MARK

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct 13.-There has
been so much recent controversy over
the stolen base record Of Jimmy John
ston, center fielder of the San Francisco
team Of the Pacific Coast baseball league
that President Alfred Baum of the league
gave out today this statement.
The greatest number OF bases stolen
by any one. player in any one season Of
which we have record was 1876. That
record was made In 1888 by Harry Sto-
he was with the Boston club in the old
Players league he stole 1876 bases
Since that time there have been many
changes in the rules In modern baseball
as we know II today, it may be said that
the best record thus far Is that of Ralph
Meyers, formerly Of the Boston Nationals,
who when with the Spokane club last year
stole 1l6 bases. Johnston this season has
stolen TO date lis bases and he has two
weeks more to go, SO that a new record
