Congressman Gardener of Massa-

luton in congress calling for a
thorough investigation of the mill
tary state of this nation. There is
no doubt but what the United States
is totally unprepared for war, and
a few precautionary steps should be
taken to remedy conditions. While
all right thinking people deplore war,
there is no disputing the fact
that under certain conditions force
has to be resorted to.

"Unwise legislation and wasteful

trial of the Underwood Tariff law
cannot be had. In this the demo-
Gratis are fortunate.

others because it will lessen to Il
