The Open Column
Why Can't We DO This Too!

Editor the NIissourian: While on an
automobile trip in Northeast Missouri
| noticed several large signs on roads
leading into Hannibal that read:
For touring Information see Sec
retary of Hannibal Commercial Club"
Since We were going through Hanni-
bal we stopped at the Office of che
Commercial Club and asked for in
formation about trips and roads. The
Secretary had one of the official Blue
Books showing all roads in that Sec
ton of the country. He had special
local maps with all the roads marked
and their condition indicated. Then
he told us of several places of Inter
est in that vicinity that we should
see. He told us how long it would
take to drive to Chicago. Keokuk,
Iowa, st. Louis, Moherly. Columbia,
Springfield. Ill, and other cities Then
he offered to call up any neighboring
towns for us and make hotel reser-
vations if We desired As We were
leaving he handed us each a we'll
printed and illustrated booklet about
Hannibal and vicinity.
Since Columbia is located at the
center of the Missouri Cross State
Highway and is just one days drive
from St Louis and Kansas City, it
strikes me we should do this here. 1t
would do a lot to advertise Columbia
and make tourists feel favorably dis
posed toward our city.-B.

the side of Germany" NJ. Raffin-
Dugens apologized and the only
chance ever afforded to the French
chamber to discuss peace was buried.
The people themselves followed
quikly; within a week, with one of
those manifestations that mark epochs
in the life of nations. Before the
present war France was not united on
the question of preparedness. If a
res.ment of troops passed it was GER
tain someone would applaud and cry
"Vive L armee" and that someone else
would shout "Vive la Paix." Noisy
groups would form and riots were
likely to follow.
On June /, in honor of her dead
General. Gallieni. Paris witnessed the
first great military display that has
taken place since the war began. As
cension day is one of the great nat
ional holidays of France. Represen-
tatives of all France lined the streets
through which the funeral cortege
passed
Ordinarily people do not applaud at
funerals But the French, waiting
until the body of Gallieni had passed
applauded and cheerei the troops rep
resenting h every branch of te
French army.
Cheering Is Prolonged.
A quiet handclapping began at sight
of the troops. 1t grew louder and
more prolonged until it extended down
the lines of thousands upon thous-
ands of people from the Invalides to
the Care de Lyons. 1t continued un-
til after there was not soldier in
sight. There was not one note of
Among the thousands of applauders
there were hundreds of women wear
ing small punches of violets, women
whose mourning garments showed
they had lost a son, father broth
er or sweetheart in the war. Many of
them spent almost their last money
to purchase the emblematic flowers.
The violets had been intended for
Gallieni, but when the cortege began
these women suddenly saw
broader and larger They saw in the
death of Gallieni the man who had
merely saved Paris, while in the
troops that followed they saw what
must ultimately save all France. And
as if by some sudden subtle instinct
the hands raised to shower the vio-
lets on the bier of Gallieni were stay |
ed and the flowers fell instead en- the |
troops as they passed.
1t was the final solemn manifesto
ton of the people of France that the |
voice of their President, the voice of |
their Premier. the voice Of their |
Chamber of Deputies, had been also
heir voice and that France wants a
of the war until the
peace she and her Allies desire can
definitely be imposed.

FRENCH PEACE
By HENRY WOOD

ltnlteO PreSS Sta11 SOrreSpOuueutt
PARIS, Aug. 30.-France is open to
the consideration of a peace imposed
by herself and the Allies. None 9TH
err
Within the last three months, or the
last quarter of the first two years of
the war. France four times officially
has said so.
| A formal declaration by her presi-
dent, formal statement by her prime
minister, a spontaneous outburst in
her Chamber of Deputies and a great
manifestation by the French people
themselves all have said this and
France closed the second year of the
war with an absolutely solid front
for a peace for all time to come.
May Il, at Nancy, President Poin-
caire delivered perhaps the most re-
markable address that ever fell from
the lips of French president 1t
chrystallized the sentiments of the
French on peace
Eve do not want our enemies to
offer us peace he declared. "but we
want them to demand it of US. We do
| not want to accept the conditions they
have to offer: we want to impose on
them our own. We do not want
peace that will leave Imperial Ger
many mistress to recommence the
war when she chooses: we want a
peace based on the restored right with
serious guarantee of equilibrium and
stability And until that peace is as
sured; until our enemies recognize
themselves defeated, we will never
cease to fight"
The French press without dissent
ing voice upheld these words. Prime
Minister BRAND within a week publicly
confirmed the position of NJ. Poincaire
as that of the French government it
self.
In refusing to accept the olive
branch of diplomacy as means of
settling the war France did not fear
that in diplomatic negotiations with
Germany she might be worsted She
is willing to let her victory in the Aga
dir case stand as a witness to her Dip
lomatic superiority. Germany re-
fused in July and August 1914 to ac-
cept diplomacy to settle the contro-
versy. She insisted upon war and
France insists that Germany must
finish with the war.
Won't Even Discuss Peace.
Following these declarations there
came within a week a spontaneous
outburst in the French chamber as
still further affirmation that France
does not want even to discuss a ne
gotiable peace.
NJ. Raffin-Dugens. socialist member,
had just returned from Kienthal !
Switzerland, where in a private capa-
city he had attended the Second Inter- +
national Socialistic Conference to |
Bring About Peace Arising, he de-
manied the right to speak on ''cer

MOTT-CHRISTIAN DIPLOMAT

Two years ago a group of New York
bankers invited John r. Mott to con-
fer with them regarding the organ
ization of a new financial institution
backed with unlimited millions. At
the close of the conference the spokes-
man announced that Mr. Mott was the
unanimous choice of the board of di-
rectors for president and that the sal
airy was of his own choosing. After
a moment of silence Mr.. Mott arose
and with great control and delibera-
ton said: Gentlemen has is come to
this. Has my work for the Students
of North America been so poorly done
that you men are asking me to leave
it." Without another word he walked
out and went direct to his desk in
the International Y. NJ. c. A. office
where for twenty years, more than
any other one man, he has influenced
the student life of the world.
He is probably the best known
American among the leaders of intel
ligence. the student class. in all for
eign countries. For two decades he
has travelled in every part of the world
addressing audiences of students and
confering with educational, religious,
and political leaders regarding the
needs of college men. To harmonic
and unity into a great federation all
of these forces has required a world
statesman A glass covered map of
the world is spread out on his desk in
his Office for his daily study. He has
come to think and act in world terms.
A recent writer in Harper's Weekly
says of him: 'He senses national re-
lationships for he knows race psy-
chology. He knows that a Korean
and japanese must not be jammed
up against each other in Christian
brotherhood He has acquired this
tact by almost constant travel and
observation
1t was no mere accident that Presi-
dent Wilson appointed Mr.. Mott as
one of the three commissioners tO
deal with the Mexican situation. |
While at Princeton President Wilson |
came to know of Mr.. Motifs great |
leadership and has since spoken of
him as one of the great men of this |
generation. Mr.. Mott will bring to
the Mexican problem a diplomatic and
judicial mind and an experience that
will go far toward the solution of this
tangled question. He is already ia
vorably known to the leaders in Mex
leo and his appointment will give
great confidence that the United
States has a genuine interest in the
welfare of the Mexican people.
