HOW 10 HASTEN THE WARS END

What the government at Washing
ton should do, say some Of the peace
advocates, is to step in and prevent
all traffic in war supplies-ammu
milton, guns, horses, motor cars, gas
oline food stuffs, between this coun :
try and any and all OF the belliger-
ents, thereby strangling the war,
bringing II to an early conclusion.
Then again, the Memphis Appeal,
an intelligent newspaper, thinks Just
rhe contrary
Peace advocates are making
against peace when they seek to keep
military supplies out OF the hands of
the belligerents. The more cannon,
the more powder the more subma-
rines all OF tle contestants have. the
quicker the war will be ended. The
sooner the war is ended the better 1t
will be for the general happiness and
prosperity CT the world.
