Governor Asked for Aid.
At this juncture Sheriff Kinkead

stones back. II the guards shoot at me
l will shoot back" He was cheered

M.nken Urxes Preparedness.

To-day We OF the Security League
are able. because OF the Investigations
which have been made and the public
u%,terances OF officials of the Govern
ment. particularly Secretary Garrison.
to state that the United States IL not
only unprepared. but Is wofully lacking
in even the necessary elements Of a
proper army and a proper navy.
The general objective OF the Security
League Is To induce Congress 10 take
proper action for preparedness against
war. and to organize the people OF all
classes in all parts OF the country. so
that this demand will be made in no
uncertain voice. We believe that this
is the greatest issue before this country
to-day. In coriuctng our campaign We
have two certain and defnite methods

directly or indirectly, any attack upon

we have every reason TO believe that

General Board.

is So much opportunity for extreme

make will he one that is at all times
