Several days ago Borough Secre-

This morning he received his letter

THE MEANING
Of THE WAR

In letter to the editor of the New
York Times, David Starr Jordan,
writing from Berkeley, California. on
September 10, said
In this war what of right and what
of wrong? Not much of right, per-
haps, and very much of wrong, But
there are degrees in wrong, and some
times, by comparison, wrong becomes
almost right.
The Armed Peace, the peace Of
guns and dreadnoughts and sabre
rattlers, has come to its predestined
end. Its armam ents were made for
war. Its war markers and war trad
ers, the Pan-Germanists in the lead,
have done their worst for the last
nine years. They have been foiled
time after time, but they have their
way at last. Their last and most
fatal weapon was the u,tinatum. II
Servia had not given them their
chance they would have found their
pretext somewhere else. When a
nation or a continent prepares for
war it will get it sooner or later. To
prepare for war Is to breed a host
of men who have no other business,
and another host who find their
profits in blood.
When the war began 1t had very
little meaning. 1t was the third Bal
kan war, brought on as the Others
were, by intrigues of rival despot
isms. The peoples Of Europe do not
hate each other. The springs OF war
