OUT Way
UNIVERSAL PEACE

New York, Jan. 1.-The way to uni
versal peace, according to Hamilton
Holt, editor and peace advocate, who
was the principal speaker at a dinner
of the Intercollegiate socialist society
is impossible until the world is po-
litically organized. 4
Mr.. Holt advocated an immediate
world organization with a view of
drawing up a code of international
rules. He proposed that the United
States and England be the first to
band togetherzin the organization and
form o league of peace having dis.
armament as its purpose. Every
other country in the world would come
into the league and submit to it's rules,
he said if these countries could lead
tho way.
The cost in lives in the European
wal would approach five million men,
Mr.. Holt said, and the cost in dollars
he estimated at $4,000, 600, 900. The
indirect economic loss was incalcula-
BILE and the moral effect on the races
involved, he said, would stretch over
three or more generations.

TEST IsHAM z

Washington, Jan. 1.--Preparations
are being made for a test in the near
future of the much. dismissed Isham
shell by a naval board, headed by Rear
Admiral Fiske. A new kind of fuse
for the shell has just been construct
ed and submitted to a preliminary test
and as soon as it has demonstrated it's
reliability the actual firing expert
ments vii take place somewhere in
the lower Potomac or Chesapeake
Bay
The theory which it is proposed to
demonstrate is that the explosion of a
large quantity of high explosives on
the, outside. Of a .ship's armour belt
would. by its racking- and rending ef-
feet, do more damage than the explo-
sion Of an armour piercing projectile
after it pierced a ships side.
