Congressman Sherwood, Aged
Ohio Democrat Calls Policy
"CriminaI FooIishness."

Criminal foolishness" and without
sanity or excuse we're among the
milder terms used today in a discus
sion OF the Administrations prepared
ness program by Congressman Sncr-
wood. an Ohio Democrat. In a speech
today In the House he denounced the
administration plans in bitterest
terms.
Congressman Sherwood. Familiarity
known as THE General" is the only
surviving officer OF the Union Army
now serving in the House. He fought
throughout the civil war and was
and was wounded several times.
General Sherwood, at his present age
OF efghty-one years, eblieves that the
national defense program Is unneces-
sary. He qualified his opposition, how
ever. by saying that IL he though the
nation actually faced danger he would
volunteer to 60 to the front, which is
more than any of this powerful array
OF culpable curmudgeons who originat-
ed this horrid war scare will ever do"
War is the greatest crime Of the hu-
man race" declared the gray-haired
Ohioan. 1T Is not in my philosophy
that II the murder OF one man makes
a villain. murder Of thousands makes a
hero. A standing army means waste
depression. moral decay. A nation can
not be moving toward peace while def
niteiy preparing for war. I have never
been peace-at-any-price advocate
Whenever we are liable to be confronted
by an armed enemy. I will vote for as
many armed men and as much money as
the President demands. and will. fur
thermore. volunteer to go to the front
Sherwood declared farmers and labor
are against the Administration plans.
He also asserted that tax burdens would
mean national bankruptcy and swift
ruin OF the Democratic party" Sher-
wood praised President Wilson for pde-
serving peace but said he has mistaken
the popular Judgment in his prepared
ness message"
Dollar SCARED heroes OF the Navy
League" were fayed by Sherwood, de-
claring tone and flavor were given the
colossal military propaganda" by those
interested In munitions. He denounced
II as powerful and greedy cabal." de-
claring militiarism and imperialism
twin devils OF rapacity and moral de-
cay" Proposing reduction Of the stand
ing army to $1,000. Sherwood said a
standing army Is a menace to peace
and that preparedness cost will mark
the ruin of the Republic Of George
Washington, Thomas Jefferson and
Abraham Lincoln"

GUBERNAToRIAL ANTS
HASTEN TO CLIMB ON THE
WATER WAGON.

ATLANTA, June 19.-With the for
NAL statement of Solicitor Hugh Dor
seys platform for governor, it appears
that all four candidates for guberna-
tOrial honors have declared in favor
of prohibition. Governor Nat f. Har-
Tis, whose action in including prohibit
tion in the call for the extraordinary
session of the Legislature last fall
made possible the enactment Of the
'ssInoo 10 'p9lIoddns SuI9q 81 'sMBT
by many of the prohibitionists of the
state, and each of his three oppo-
nents has made a bid for this support
by Hneduivoealty declaring himself
the champion of the laws.
In this connection. however, a great
deal of comment is going the rounds,
both in the press and among political
gossips, over the activities of Clay
ton NJ Robson in behalf of Solicitor
Joe Pottle, of Milledgeville. Robson
for several years has maintained a
suite of rooms in an Atlanta hotel
where members of the legislature dur
ing sessions of the general assembly
were entertained, and he is generally
regarded by legislators as a represen-
tative of the liquor interests.
Mr.. Robson is a fellow townsman
of Solicitor Pottle, was one of the
launchers of the Pottle candidacy, and
is said to be devoting his political
talents to the furtherance of Solicitor
