An open letter to each individual

the Herald asking these questions, to
each of which Senator Jones has CIV
en- his own answer, as well:
"Do We need a larger standing army
than we now have for purely peace
purposes and domestic duties?
think not.
"Whatever may be the final out
come of the present war in Europe,
do you think that any of the coun-
tries involved will want to go to war
| with us at once or very soon after
it comes to a close? l do not think
| so.
"lf you think any country now in
volved will desire to go Immediately
or very soon into war with us, kindly
say why you think so.
"Do you think it most probable that
there will be at least several years
of general peace when the war closes
l do.
''If we are likely to be attacked by
a strong power, do you think that an
increase in our standing army by 49,
600 men will enable us to make an
effective defense? l do not.
"If we should prepare now to meet
an attack by strong power in the
near future. don't you think we
should make adequate and prompt
preparations by organizing a standing
army of 250,OO0 or 100000 men. as
urged by the war experts? I do.
"If trouble is to come soon, should
we take four or five years to prepare
to meet it either in military or naval
preparations? | think not.
"If early trouble is not probable,
would it not be wiser to wait until
the war closes and determine our poll
cies by the conditions then existing
do
Don't you think the wisest pre-
tion of interstate highways along our
coast lines, so that in case of the
landing of a hostile force we could
mobilize quickly our defense where
needed? l think So"
Senator Jones desires individuals
to write him their views on all of the
above questions.
