UNDESIRABILITY OF WAR
High Time for U. S. to Voice Pro
test Against It's Continuance.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Ten months have been consumed by
the powers at war in proving the assertions
of economists, that by virtue Of the vast re-
sources of both sides It can result in victory
for neither one. Great military trumphs
appear to be impossible, and economic ruin
certain in a continuance OF the struggle.
From the nature Of the case concerted peace
demands can originate alone In neutral
country, such as our own. May they begin!
We are aghast at the costly demonstration
given us by the advocates of an interna-
tonalism based on the false principle OF the
superiority of vast ornaments for the preser-
walton Of peace. 1t Is estimated 1o,OOO,oJO
Of the armies have been killed wounded
and 35.000000 non-combatants are DEEPEN
dent upon American charity. An amount
equal in value 70 that Of the agricultural
lands of America-to the assets of the Rus
sian Empiro-has been expended from treas
uries depeted before the war began in the
preparation for il. Daily $50,000,00O Is de-
voted to its CARRYING on.
War credit is already undermined. Two
hundred thousand millions Of foreign securi-
ties are declared TO be Of questionable value
Nations are on the verge of bankruptcy, from
which reputation Of national debts Is the
escape probably. Let American sellers be-
ware in the face of this.
There is the destruction Of property, with
irreplaceable treasures of art and architect
ure; the loss to the trade and commerce oil
the world; the effect upon credit; the re-
tarding of the development of backward
races, and these deleterous influences In
racial deterioration due TO the destroying OF
the strongest in battle and to the effect upon
religion and morals which are incalculabie
in extent.
The human race Is being dragged in the
gutter by an outgrown Allies-entente-
Casarsm. born of apathy and colossal ma
tional greed, marching under the motto that
"Might is right" toward the mirage OF worid
dominion. None of the belligerents are able
to prove their case. All are to be con-
demned. Shallow jingoism echoes the war
cry in our own land.
Is II not time that men and nations awoke
from their comfortable opportunism! Can
Americans voice no concerted protest
against the continuance of the war! Our
control of supplies gives US voice none
may not heed. Our share In establishing
peace league of nations requires that we
save prospective members Of the league from
suicide-fnancial moral and spiritual. Our
common interests urge US to action In de-
handing through press, pulpit civic, reform
and all other agencies an exchange OF peace
terms on the part of the belligerents, basic
to an early termination of the war, on the
grounds of an honorable peace.

Stockholders Liza bility.
TOR of The Tribune.

10 the EQlLOT Oh ne lIlDuUc.
Sir: Through the columns Of The Tribune
this morning | learned of judgments filed
with the County Clerk against stockholders
in the Northern Bank Of New York City,
under the law of double liability for stock
holders of banks and trust companies in New
York State.
sold my stock at public auction through
Adrian II. Muller e. Co, and have proved
that such sale took place months prior TO the
failure of the Northern Bank.
1t is generally considered that no one
can more conclusively dispose of property
than through public auction. and yet because
the purchaser of my stock did not see fit TO
transfer the certificate from my name | am
unjustly held liable for $1,000.
In other words, New York State does not
recognize sale which the commercial and
financial world considers as conclusive evil
dence of transfer of property, namely, at
public auction.
| call your attention to this case because
| do not believe that the majority Of hold
ers of trust company and bank stocks in
New York State realize that according to
this decision the sale at auction is not con-
sdered by the state as disposing of property.
The state claims that 1t is necessary to
follow up such a sale by seeing to it that
the purchaser transfers the stock from the
sellers name.

New York's Apples.
itor of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: was interested in reading your arti-
Gle, "Popularize New York Apples" in to-
days Tribune. What you say about the
quality and flavor Of certain New York ap-
Piles is undoubtedly true, but before they
can rival the Western apples in popularity
and confidence Of buyers the farmers will
have to take lesson from their Western
competitors.
As | understand it, the latter pick all
their apples by hand, so that none shall be
bruised or hurt in any way, and then pack
only apples of uniform size in box or
crate, no apple having defect of any kind
being allowed to enter the box.
When the New York farmers follow that
rule there is no question in my mind that
the best apples Of New York State will be
more popular than the Western apples,
whether sold by auction or otherwise.
People are tired Of purchasing apples by
the barrel with fair looking fruit on top
and the centre Of the barrel being something
altogether different, TO sa, the least. r. K.

Ben Franklin's Advice.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: happened recently to open the auto
biography of Benjamin Franklin. Would not
the following from the wise old guy, writ
ten after the Treaty Of Peace was signed at
Paris, September 8, 1888, be worth printing ?
"Thus the great and hazardous enterprise
we have been engaged in is, God be praised,
happily completed, an event hardly ex-
pected should live to see. But
our future safety will depend on our union
and our virtue. Let u.s.. therefore,
beware OF being lulled into dangerous
security Of neglect In military ex.
ercises and discipline and in providing stores
Of arms and munitions Of war, to be ready
on occasion; for all these are circumstances
that give confidence to enemies and difidence

prevent a war are much lighter than those
that will, il not prevented, be absolutely
necessary TO maintain IL. 7. ". J.

If Senator Bracket Talks.

To THE Evening Posts" correspondent
at Albany The Tribune is indebted for the
information that Messrs. Root, Stimson,
Tanner and other great ones Of the Con-
stitutional Convention have decided to let
Edgar Truman Bracket talk himself to
death" on the short ballot and kindred
issues which interest him. 1t is piece
of strategy almost worthy Of the German
War Office. But it must be recorded in
all seriousness that much Teutonic STRAIT
egy in operation hasn't turned out strictly
in accordance with the plans. II is greatly
to be feared, in this instance, that the
great ones of the convention are reckoning
without their Bracket.
Perhaps in adopting this plan they are
making a virtue Of necessity, for il is to
be doubted IL the entire membership Of the
convention could stop Edgar Truman
Bracket from talking. He has talked
already on subjects as diverse as pens and
ink and the merits Of the waters Of Sara
toga Springs. He can-and doubtless will
talk on the binomial theorem, the merits
of the Bible as literature, the rights Of the
individual under the common law, the
place OF the boss in politics, the history Of
Methodisp and the value of camp meetings

A Toy Pistol.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: 1t is to be feared that President
Wilson's sugar-coated diplomacy will be in
terpreted TO mean that he is not very in
sistent on American rights, after all. and
can be played with for an ir lefnte time By
the German government. The report that II
will be several weeks before reply to the
last mote" may be expected would seem to
indicate such a state OF mind.
When man meets you on the highway
points toy pistol at your head and makes
certain emphatic demands, even IL you don't
laugh in his face you are not likely to be
profoundly impressed. That is about the po-
sition, of Germany toward the United States
and President Wilson's latest mote" The
Kaiser is in doubt whether to laugh at US
or simply TO ignore us as a grown man some
times treats the prattle of a small boy trot-
ting at his heels.
Give us real army and an adequate navy
and our most delicately frosted diplomatic
note Will meet with prompt attention.
