For Uncle Sam Following War.
Princeton, N. j.. Dec. 2.-That general

not follow the European war. and that
the United States may have trouble
with the winner. were predictions made
by George b. Mcclellan. former mayor
of New York and now professor Of eco
nomic history in Princeton University.
in an address which he delivered here
last night.
mo matter who WINS" said Prof. Nc.
Clellan, ut is almost certain that at
some not far distant date we shall be
confronted with the alternative Of
either abandoning the Monroe doctrine
or fighting to maintain 1t. We have
made Of 4 great national principle .
question of national honor, so that if
we abandon 1t we must concede that we
are not strong enough to maintain It:
that we are only second class power
at the mercy of all the staggering
bullies of the earth. II we fight for 1t
in our present unprepared condition
there can be but one outcome. A tri-
umphant and victorious German army
would have little to fear from US. and
while we might possibly be In the end
able to check Japan herself. we could
scarcely nope W w oV Al Suo SSSSAVoA

The cause OF war. according to Pro-
fessor Mcclellan, is tho spirit Of ma
tionality which has seized all Of Europe.
and the present war can not be charged
against any one man or group or men.
Professor Mcclellan made strong
plea that Americans awake to their
present condition of unpreparedness
and that immediate steps be taken to
build up a national defense.
