/ WANT to assure the Hon. Walter
Hensley that his constituents are with
him as to his position on Prepared
ness. Let him not weary in we'll do
ing, nor permit his Judgment to be set
aside by the clamor of the advocates
of the craze. Nineteen out of every
twenty of those who would be called
onto foot the bills are opposed to the
scheme of militarism-for that is
what it is, sugar-eoat the pill never
so thickly. No one troubled his mind
about Preparedness fifty years ago;
twenty-five years, ten years or five
years ago-or even one year ago.
Why this Overwhelming sense Of
S~caredness now? There is neither
sense nor patriotic eason in it. All
Europe is sick unto death and the
%contending nations have neither men
nor money nor energy to expend in
assault upon the Western Hemisphere.
