Bryan Repeats
His Peace Plea
Urges Action to Prevent
Americans Sailing on Arm
ed Merchantmen.

Special to The Washington Herald
New York, March THE duty OF
Americans to keep off armed merchant
men and the power Of the government TO
keep them OF were urged by William J..
Bryan. former Secretary of State, to-
night. Fifteen hundred people who filled
the Music Hall OF the Academy OF Music
in Brooklyn at meeting OF the Brooklyn
Institute of Arts and Sciences received
his statement with applause. Mr.. Bryan
spoke on preparedness.
He declared there were three reasons
why 1t is the supreme duty Of this ma
ton to remain neutral until this war is
over"
The first and second were the cost IN
money and the enormous loss OF Amer
lean lives that wer would entail. The
third was the fact that becoming Il party
to the war the United States would lose
the opportunity OF being the peacemaker.
The world is looking to us to act as
mediator when the time for mediation
comes" he said. IF We enter this war,
no matter what the cause, the reason the
excuse or pretcxt, We step down from
that high position and turn over TO some
other nation an opportunity that never
came to any nation before and may new
er come again"

of these men were without uniforms.
