Edward Sanford Martin, in Life, -
has produced masterpiece in litera-
ature and logic directed at Henry Ford,
the millionaire automobile manufec-
turer, who dares to make statemen ts
relative to the war which, because of
his wealth and position, few dare to
contradict. However, Mr.. Martin
handles this genial gentleman in a
manner that is we'll worth considering,
and quoting his editorial, he says:
Henry Ford says he has $40, 000,0 Otto
spend if necessary to persuade this coun n
try that peace is always the best plan
He thinks people have false idea Of
war that ought to be educated out of
them. He imagines that they are
fooled by the glory and glamur of it.
He wants the people to
be persuaded that preparedness for
war creates war.
/ Henry does not seem TO realize that
several times $40, 600, 600 is being spent
every day, and has been spent every
day for fourteen months, to persuade
mankind that peace is the best plan
and that excess in preparation for wsr
is about as dangerous as no preparatit n
ut all. Our newspapers and movie
shows are telling the truth about VIZ r
so far as they can get it.
They represent it as terrible job.
The glory and the glamour of it go for
nothing. 1t is all tragedy, the purge
Of the passions tragedy, destruction, and
waste. Henry's ten millions would be
q mere scratch on the slate compared
with the daily picture of war that We
have been getting this last year.
"Have patience, Henry. This is q
war against war. Folks who survive it
are going to be gun shy for sometime.
You have done great deal to make
life attractive. That is YOUR great
service to peace, because the pleasanter
life is the less people want to die. But
war, Henry, brings much greater
lesson than that-the lesson of self
sacrifice. Nobody is much good who
has not in him some idea, some ideal,
that he cares more for than he does for
life, even though it is life alleviate by
the Ford motor. You help to make life
pleasant, but war, Henry, helps tc
make it noble, and if it is not noble il
does not matter a damn, Henry,
whether it is pleasant or not. That is
the old lesson of Calvary repeated al
Mons and Ypres and Liege and Namur.
Whether there are more people in the
world or less, whether they are fat OF
lean, whether there are Fords or oxen,
makes no vital difference, but whethe
men shall be willing to die for what
they believe in makes all the difference
between pigsty and Paradise. Not
), by bread alone, Henry. shall men
live.
"As for military preparedness,
enough is good and salutary; too much
is militarism, and that is bad, bad, bad,
az the Germans are TEACHING US. They
are the great teachers of peace, and,
be sure, Henry, they shall learn that
lesson themselves down to the last line.
Leave peace propaganda to them; but
Won, if you have ten millions to spare,
put it into Ford ambulsnces for
France"

BY LOUIS A. DOUGHER.
Game starts, 3 o'clock.


"The Athletics are still to be con-
sidered. have never discounted
them in the least" was the state
ment of Manager Clark Griffith to-
day. "and they showed enough yes
terday to prove their strength in this
race. They'll never miss those old
pitchers, Bender and Plank. They
have enough good youngsters to hold
their own.
"The Athletics ought to be con-
tenders all the way through this
race. Connie is one of the wisest
old fellows connected with baseball
and he can be counted on to bring
out all his players have in them. To
make him dangerous, he has some
very good young ball players. They
have been kept in the shadow by vet
Grams. Now they have their chance.
Watch 'em work."
Manager Griffith expects his great
est opposition in the fight for the flag

good work of Alva Williams in the OPEN
ing game. He didn't hesitate to say
that civilians could make good at

day that he had released Frank Trues-
dale to Montreal in the international

State will do all in his power to
prove that we are one people and
one State. regardless of geogr aphi-
cal lines.
