ADDRESSES
DELIVERED At v. j.
R. c. Haley Says MilitarisnI
Should Tend To COnStruC-
tive Arts

Eric P. Bolt read before the student
body of willamette this morning mes
sage from Sedgewick Post Nc. 10 Of the
G. A. r. The message was one CON
tanning the thought that certain inner
ent liberties had ben given to all Amer
leans and that these should be main
tained. The Post expressed itself as op'
posed to militarism and its methods of
securing results. The terrible effects Of
the Civil war were enumerated and a
contrast was drawn with what could be
expected in Europe at the close of the
present war. The memorable Gettys-
burg address of Abraham Lincoln was
revised slightly and given as the Ameri-
cans creed Of international ethics
Several members of the G. A, R. and
w. R. c. were present on the platform
and R. G. HALEY, one of the number, ad-
dressed the students, stating that he
would like to see Willamette students
organize a company and wear the blue
uniforms, although he did not expect to
see any complications arise in which our
country would participate, yet ne fore
saw that all Of the great works of t
future were to be done by the govern
ment under the military regime of the
war department. He quoted specific eI-
amples of the Panama canal, Cello can
al, irrigation projects, harbor and river
development, construction of public
highways. Hence those who would
arise to prominent places were those
who were in the military department,
A great tribute was paid to woman suf-
frage. The speaker stated that in a
few years women would control the
public offices, and that the office posi-
tions now held by men would revert to
women. Men must turn to constructive
works for national development.

Secretary Bryan's request that the

General Francisco Villa, was also con

loud talking could be heard outside the

DR.. Albert Diaz Vuzaria, personal
representative Of Villa, made strong
appeal to Warden Sims and the pardon
board. 1t was believed at the prison
that the pardon board would refuse to
intercede.
Despite this Warden Sims said re.

be no executions. The tension was high
and increased with every minute.
A few minutes before the time fixed

been chosen for the new arrivals. AS

wholly unprepared for it. They might
have been able to announce the name
