OMAHA. Jan. ITO the Editor of The

pose OF boosting a. bill to prohibit, the
sale OF munitions of war to nations at
war. wonder II the people really under
stand what such bill would mean? 1t
would have the effect OF placing a
premium upon large military establish
ment in every country and tho expendi-
ture OF large sums upon munitions of war
in times of peace. 1t is well known that.
high explosives deteriorate in quality and
that they must be replaced from time to
time IL they are not consumed in war or
otherwise. The peaceful nations would
be at the mercy of the warlike and the
nation dixie Belgium, for instance), when
attacked on her border by q prepared
neighbor, would be helpless
We must not forget that the sponsor
Of this measure was largely educated In
Germany and that he Is more or less
filled with German ideas ana Il is not
strange that he wants to place the peace
ful nations at the mercy OF those with
military machines
BY all means, let us be neutral--not
