tary of the Navy Josephus Daniels de-
clared in an address on national pre-

Congress soon will make larger an

NO PEACE AT ANY PRICE"
DR.. McKim Says Christianity JUST
fies War in Righteous Cause.

"Christianity and the War" was the
subject discussed by Rev. DIR. Randolph
H. McKim, pastor of the Church of the
Epiphany, at his evening sermon yes
terday. He made the statement that in
event this country should be drawn
into war the church and churchm en-
will throw their strength against any
attempts at invasion.
Never can the advocates of peace al
any price claim the support of the
Christian church in this country" said
DR.. Mckim.
IF pacificism is correct, and defense
not justified, we must throw the Old
Testament on the ash heap. We must
strike from the TIE Deum the names OF
saints and prophets. for many were va :
liant soldiers. We must take Abraham.
Moses. Joshua and others from the
Christian hall of fame. We must go to
Mount Vernon and dishonor the name
of Washington, coming to later times,
and a t Lexington, Va, those of Lee and
Stonewall Jackson.
I'VE must rebuke Jesus himself. We
must condemn the church for its honor
to the names of brave Christian SOL
diers We must strike out self-sacrt-
flee from the Christian virtues, for
where is greater self-sacrifice seen than
on the patriotic field of battle

EASTMAN COMPANY FILES
APPEAL IN COURT DECREE
Assigns Forty-Nine Errors to Federal
Ruling in Alleged Violation of
Antitrust Law.

The Eastman Kodak Company today filed
In the Supreme Court of the United States
an appeal from the decree of the fed
eral district court in western New York
holding it was imposing a restraint on
interstate trade in Photographic sup
plies in violation of the Sherman anti
trust law, and ordering a division of
its property into separate corporations
of distinct ownership. Forty-nine errors
are assigned to the holding of the
lower court, which was announced last
August.
The filing of the kodak case in the
Supreme Court makes easily the most
important group of cases before the
court at any time with the possible
exception of the period when the
Standard Oil and tobacco cases were
there. This is largely due to the fact
that the court has handed down but
one opinion touching the Sherman law
In year and a half.
Cases under the Sherman law now
pending in court included those against
the United States Steel Corporation, In
ternational Harvester Company, East
man Kodak Company, South African
steamship lines. New York woodwork

America, and coal miners in Arkansas
