WOMEN'S PEACE PARTY

Noted Speakers Address Meeting on
Principles of Interna-
tional Amity.

\ second local branch of the womens s
peace party, which was inaugurated at
a mass meeting held January 10 in
| this city, was organized Satur-
day afternoon at Woodward & Lo-
throps auditorium. The meeting,
| which was called to order by DR..
Anita Newcomb McGee, was ad-
dressed by the chairman, by Mrs.
Brewster of the International Peace
Forum, by Mrs. Edward B. Whitney of
| New Haven and by Arthur d. Call of
| the American Peace Society. An invi-
| tation to attend the meeting had been
extended to all women interested in
the promotion of international peace.
| Mrs Mctiee explained, in opening the
meeting. that it was the purpose of the
organza tion to enlist women in arous-
| ing this and other nations to respect the
| sacredneSs of human life and to abolish
| war. A series of letters were read by
| Mrs McCiee from women in neutral ma
| tions abroad. expressing their views on
| the questions before the meeting and
| the problems of international peace in
| general.
Mrs Brewster explained the purposes
of the national peace movement, and
pointed out the opportunities which it
problem which has been before the
world since the dawn of civilization.
Views on Maintaining Peace.
Mrs. Whitney spoke of the fact that
the peace party is primarily interested
| in American peace. and gave her views
as to how this country's present fortu-
nate status in this time of turmoil
| could best be firmly established.
| Mr.. Call told of the efforts of the
| American Peace Society since it was
l
| among the nations. He said the society
had been accused. with other things,
of trying to jeopardize our country by
aboishing its ornaments and defense.
and claimed that none of the state
ments made was even measurably or re-
| motely true. He said a peace society
was composed of patriots who served
the country better because they love
| humanity the more. The greatest need
of the principles of international peace
The following officers were elected by
the branch organization: Mrs. James L.
Slayden. chairman: Mrs. Amos Draper
| secretary, and Mrs George White.
| treasurer. A meeting is to be held in
| the near future to complete organiza-
ton and to elect committees for the
various activities which the society
proposes.
| Mrs McGee explained that she an
ticipated the forming of numerous SIM
liar organizations in the District, but
| said that there was room for all in the
great work before the women of Amer
lea.

who have furnished the leaven which is
rapidly raising the entire race to an
appreciation of the value of civilization
In emphasizing the Importance of the
farm schools the Indian commissioner
notes the necessity of utilizing every
acre of land in the production of some
thing of use to the school, on the
ground that there is no justification for
the purchase of anything which can
be raised.
The first large preservation school
was established at Carlisle in 1879
Previous to that a few Indians had
been educated at Hampton Institute in
Virginia in connection with the col
ored people just freed from slavery
The combination was not considered
successful because of the different
problems presented in the instruction
Of non-English speaking children who
had always had freedom, and the in
structfon of recently freed slaves who
spoke English, but had never been ac-
customed to independence. The In
dian school at Carlisle Is generally ac.
cepted as beginning the present well
organized system of Indian education.
Every Indian school provides con-
siderable amount of manual training
Even in the day schools on the reser-
walton the Indian girls are taught a
greater amount of home or domestic
science work than would fall to them
in the ordinary public school curricu-
lum. The boys are taught how to use
simple tools and the elements of gar
dening. The two big things which the
Indian bureau desires to secure IN It's
educational work are industrial train
ing and agriculture for the boys and
domestic training for the girls. 1t Is
only by the combination of the two
that the race may finally achieve Is
full powers of civilization.

Works leading real estate operators,
looks for an era Of prosperity in the
near future such as the country has
enjoyed before. He feels conf
dent that the nation will weather
every storm and come out with col
ors flying. He is quoted as follows;
within nine months there have
been crowded into our lives surprises
and disasters unexpected and unpre-
pared for, which at the moment were
almost stupefying. We met and

Predictions that an era Of sreai

pearinG depression, in his opinion. H.
has been quoted as follows:

A S long as the crops of the

Hill will be optimistic. The fertile
plains of the middle West form the
basis of prosperity, and rs long As
they give forth their rich yield
everything else will follow in due

FIRST IN WORLDS TRADE"

MO one is more optimistic over
the future Of American bust
ness than Secretary William G..
Redfeld of the Department Of
Commerce and Labor, who has
gone on record as saying that the
world will not be surprised to find
the United States controlling its
commerce at the close of the war
and becoming the most potent fac
tor in the trade Of nations. These
are his words:
ut seems clear to me that IL we
do our part we shall change our
place among the great competitors.
The world is never the gamer in
the last analysis by war. The losses
must be absorbed and we must do
our share of the absorbing, but in
the process of absorption places
relative to one another must be
exchanged.

ERA OF WORLD COMMERCE"

Cup TO within a few weeks ago
it seemed as if the prospects of a
material improvement in business
were doubtful, but apparently the
tide has turned. and each day
records u marked Improvement in
the general situation. The era of
intensive domestic growth in which
this country has played so great n
part has carried US into another

favorable augury of the develop
ment of foreign trade that Ameri-
can products are now to be found

lar exchange is nearer a reality

of the world is declared by able
bankers to be now substantially
more tangible than a dream"
