Former Secretary of War Garrison
delivers his message to the American
people on the subject by having his
thoughts visualized; his thoughts being
I'VE should take stops to prepare
ourselves because war is no respecter
of persons"
1T is essential that we should take
steps to prepare ourselves against

US almost before we are aware of the

calamity has overtaken US. II will be

~ TANDENG on tho brink Of war.
- for months American citizens
~ have been asking themselves
one question.
: Are we prepared for defence
In years passed there could have
been nausht save an affirmative an
swer to the query. but with Europe in
the throes OF war of nations in
which millions of men have been
rnassed against each other. striving for
supremacy. the millions Of citizens OF
the States have found that their affirm
alive answer OF years gone by has
been. out Of sheer necessity, turned
into a negative one AT no previous
time have people SO fully realized that
our army and navy was SO inadequate.
. The singular fact that while hun
dreds, or even hundreds OF thousands
have realized that the States were not
prepared for defence. there were mil
lions who did not fully appreciate the
extreme need for deep thought upon
the matter. Lack OF realization is as
bad as lack of preparedness. Lack of
preparedness is q sure sign of weak
ness. The suggested remedy for this
was a course OF education. to be given
the people by which they would be
brought to fuller understanding of
the seriousness OF the situation.
It was for that reason. the reason OF
educating over ten million OF intelli-
gent people. and educating them each
week in forceful manner, that the
motion pictures were brought into
play In the countrywide campaign for
preparedness. The country's greatest
thinkers had spent years trying to tell
the people that there was grave need
for adequately preparing for our coun-
trys defence; not to prepare for war.
but to enable US to stand behind every
statement, 1t matters not how caustic,
that our government would be COM
PEELED to make. War did come. S!tua-
tons arose that were terrible Some
said we should go to war. Others said
We would be the laughing stock of the
world II we did. What was to be done?
Educate the people to think. Think
on vital questions. Show them what
was what. Give them the seal data
relative to our present situation. Tell
them what we are and what We should
be. And then let them SIT down and
think 1t out for themselves"
But they have been told. the "paclast"
answered. They have been told in
written words. But they didn't under
stand written words the "militarist" re-
torted. Show it to them. Show them
in q way that they will never forget.
show them their needs in vlsualized
manner.
They couldn't take a million people
TO see what We had at Fort Bliss or
Fort Myer or any other fort. Neither
could they show them the navy.
Then the thought came to the mind
of the thinking men of the motion pic
ture industry, and 1t was these men
who filed the gap and decided to
visualize the thoughts of the country's
great thinking men, on the screen. 1t
brought about the birth of the Para
mount Photographs. and behind the

Major General Scott, Chief of the

in the pictures:
''Is the United States worth fighting

 Most of the schooners, have lost money the last two years and the owners declare it is impossible for them to grant the demands.
 The arrival of the four schooners in Prince Rupert developed an unusu- al situation. The men to all intents and purposes walked out" but as a matter of fact were unable to leave their vessels. Under the laws of the United States and Canada the fisher men cannot leave their boats in Can adian ports, but have to be landed al an American port. The four schoon- CTS are waiting in Prince Rupert for instructions from the Seattle Asso- citation. They will probably be direct ed to take the fishermen to Ketchilxan or to bring them to Seattle.

WINCHESTER REPEATING ARMS COMPANY MAKE
 NEW FINANCIAL MOVE

BOSTON. March S.-"Of the mak- ng for many books there is no end" wrote the ancient prophet. And in a modern sense of the previously semi ,bscure corporations which the war las introduced to investors for the 'irst time there seems to be no ap- parent end.
 One Of the latest and in some re- lpects one of the most interesting is The Winchester Repeating Arms Go This company has just sold through a banking group headed by Kidder Peabody & Co.,. S16.OOO.O0O 2-year five per cent. notes dated March ], 1915 The notes were sold in about two hours several days ago at 99ih and he price has since advanced to par Banks and institutions formed the thief buyers.
 The Winchester Repeating Arms Co. holds immense war contracts com. outed ia the millions. The war has forced upon it a tremendous property sxpansion with the result that before he sale of these notes the company vas carrying SS,OO0,oOO floating debt The proceeds of the notes wipe out this debt and give an approximate ad' iitional $s0OO.O0O for property expan- sion and working capital.
 It seems that before tho war the Winchester Arms management had drawn up plans for a property expan- sion which would require over $20,- 100000. It was a long term proposi. ton and was designed to take core of the growth of the business for ten years
