HE SAYS PREPAREDNESS
 WILL RUSSIANIZE ANIERICA'

BOSTON, Jan. 1O.-Speaking in Faneuil Hall this afternoon before the closing session of the conference of the Society to Eliminate Economic Causes of War, Raymond L. Bridg- man, pubHcist, declared the most vital purpose of preparedness is not preparedness for war, but prepared ness against war. He said in part:
 "Nor is our purpose preparedness for war, but preparedness against war; not that We may be able to fight successfully, if we are forced, but that We may not be forced
 "The present popular craze for pre- paredness for war leads straight to militarism. Prussian preparedness, the very root of modern militarism, was the direct cause of the exhaust ing armaments of modern European nations. Militarism inevitably per verts national moral sense. It breeds treachery, the policy of frightfulness, cruelty, slaughter, the trampling of treaties as scraps of paper, the sink ing of Lusitanias, the murder of the Armenian nations, the shooting of Edith Cavells. Human nature is the same in America as abroad. That is what preparedness for war will do for us." Roger Sherman Hoar, ex-assis- tant attoney-general, who was the next speaker, said:
 "Let us waste no time trying to stop the present war. That question will be settled by the belligerents themselves. If we would prevent war, we must eliminate the causes of war. Cause should be distinguished from occasion. The cause is what builds the pyre for a world conhagra- tion, whereas the occasion is merely the match that happens to set it off. The monster we must blame for lay ing the foundation for the present war is a Jekyll-Hyde sort of deity, whose good name is Patriotism and whose bad name is Nationalism. A few score years ago we owed our al- legiance to the state, today we owe it to the nation, tomorrow we shall owe it to the iuter-nation"

MT. RAINIER CARNIVAL
Opens FOR TWO WEEKS
Elaborate Parade and Speeches Fea-
ture First Day.

Mount Rainier's two weeks carnival
was opened Labor Day with a parade
through the streets Of the town. Mayor
Weber and town officers led the parade
on horseback National Hive. No. l,
OF the Washington Maccabees, entered
an initiation team in full regaIs, follow
ed by the Ladies of the Maccabees and
number Of their children. The Mac
ca bee Twins were there, too Sections
were furnished by the Odd Fellows. the
Womens Civic League, the Third Ward
Citizens and the fire department. The
fire departments contribution was in the
nature of a tableau showing the growth
Of the department during the four years
Of its existence, from a bucket brigade to
a well-equipped company, with two mo-
tor fire engines.
At the conclusion of the parade at the
carnival grounds Miss Emily Peckham
was crowned queen OF the carnival, with
Perry Martin as king. Senator Blair Lee,
the speaker OF the day, felicitated the
king and queen on the honor which had
been awarded them, and presented them
with the key OF the town, which Mayor
Weber had given him. In his speech Mr..
Lee denied the charges that he was not a
friend Of labor and laid the blame for the
threatened strike, not on the demand
for higher wages, but on the necessity Of
better living conditions. He said that
the difficulty in obtaining an eight-hour
day from the roads lay in the fact that
the roads had so heightened the freight
trains that they were unwieldly and ne
cessitated a long working day.
Prizes were awarded to the paraders,
first prize going to the Ladies of the
Maccabees. In the commercial vehicle
class the prize was awarded to the Geo.
A. Harlow Garage. Mrs. Annie L. Beavers
was given the prize for the best private
automobile. Master Nelson A Beavers
was declared to have the most grotesque
entry, and was given the prize in that
class.
The carnival will continue for two
weeks with all features and dancing every
night Fred z. Weber. NJ. c. Hartman
and Peter ]. Hagan are the carnival
committee.

lawyer. of Montclair, N. j.. who was shot
when on an automobile ride in Van Cort-

from the automobile to grapple with the
men. The robbers, she added, ran into

protection at that part OF the road and
opened fire. A bullet struck him in the
chin and another entered his breast on
