THURSDAY DECEMBER ., 1915
We Will Pay Cheerfully

We may well believe that the ad-
vice given by the President. in his
message delivered this week, as to
increased appropriations for defence,
was spoken with some reluctance. No
man better than he knows that the
things we eat, the clothes We wear,
the houses we live in and the pleas
ures and privileges we enjoy, will all
cost more or be reduced in their
amount and efficiency because of the
increased portion of the public rev.
enue that, sad to say, must be devoted
to battleships and munitions. The
bitter thought about it is that we are
forced into this shameful outlay be-
cause of the quarrels of Europe We
Western world, and for some of our
follys are now being and shall here
after be soundly punished, but this
sacrifice for defense cannot be ac-
cepted as a just consequence of any
thing we have done or failed to do
Circumstances largely beyond our
control compel it, We must accept
the burden as cheerfully as we can.
One suggestion might be offered
that would get a hearing at this time
better than later on. Why not, so
far as possible place a generous share
of the cost of preparedness on those
who have made. are now making
and will continue to make gigantic
fortunes out Of these abnormal times
We have a new crops of millionaires
coming out of the business of supply
ing munitions to the bellgerants of
Europe. They will become richer
by the continuation of the same bust
ness as the United States carries out
her plan of defensive militarism. OF
all the human race they alone profit
by the misery and suffering of their
warning fellowmen. What injustice
would there be in making those who
profit by these extraordinary cond-
tion5, assume the major part of the
burden?
This view of the case is respectful
ly called to the attention of the Hon.
John A. Peters and the other mem
bers of the Maine delegation in Con-
gress.
