BRYAN AGAINST
THE PRESIDENT
WILL FIGHT HIS NATIONAL DE.
FENSE PROGRAM OUT
LINED IN new YORK
SPEECH.

Washington Former Secretary sof
State Bryan Friday came out square
ly against President Wilson'S na-ion-
al defense plan, in formal state
ment, taking issue with the presi-
dents views as expressed Thursday
night in his New York speech. "A
departure from our traditions, re-
versal of our national policy, a men-
ace to peace and safety, and chal-
lenge to the spirit OF Christianity
which teaches US to influence others
by example, rather than by exiting
fear" is Bryan's view of the ma
elonal defense plans.
THE OfENiNG GUN.
Bryan's statement, which reiterates
the views he prev yiously expressed on
the subject of preparedness for war,
is regarded as the opening gun in a
fight which administration leaders
expect in congress against the adop-
ton of the plan. Bryan began his
statement by saying:
Il read the presidents speech at
New York with sorrow, and con-
Germ. He is doing what he believes
TO be duty and as long as a man fol-
lows his conscience and his judg-
ment we cannot critieise his mo-
tives, but we may be comp lied to
dissent from his conclusions. He
has announced a policy whilh has
never before been adopted in this
country and never indorsed by any
party in the country. He has no way
of knowing, until he hears from the
people, whether he mas correctly fn--
terpreted the will of the public.
OPPOSES THE PRESIDENT.
THE president says we should be
prepared, not for aggression, but for
defense. That is the ground upon
which all preparation for war is
made. What nation ever prepared for
war on the theory that it was pre-
pairing for aggression? Speak softly
au1S Sums II OAc VI S<AS
delusive maxims employed by those
who put their faith in force. If there
is any truth in our religion, this ma
ton must win respect as an individ-
ual does, not by carrying arms but
by an upright and honorable course,
inviting confidence and insuring good
will. There has net been a time in
SC years when there was less reason
TO add to the expenses of the army
and navy, for we are not only with
out an enemy but our preparedness
is increasing relatively as other ma
tions exhaust themselves.
81 hope the president will not be
deceived by the atmosphere OF the
Manhattan club. That is the oHe
place of the United States where
the mammon worshiping portion of
the Democratic party meets 10 ex-
change compliments. There is no
group farther removed from the
sentiment of the masses, whether
you measure sentiment by economi-
cal, social or religious Standards"
