PAC|F|ST TALK BY
 JANE ADDAMS |S
 GREETED SILENTLY
Republican A. p. Leased WireJ

CHICAGO, June 10.-Profound silence followed an address by Miss Jane Ad- dams on "Pacificism and Patriotism in Time of War" before the Current Events class of the First Congrega- tional church at Evanston today. Fin ally Orrin N. Carter, chief justice of the supreme court and q member of the class jumped to his feet.
 II have been a lifelong friend of Miss Addams," Justice Carter said. T have agreed with her on most questions Tn the past"
 That sounds as if you were going to break with me" interrupted Miss Ad dams, laughing.
 T am going to break" the justice re torted q think anything that may tend to cast doubt on the justice of our cause in the present war is very unfortunate. No pacificist measures. in my opinion, should be taken until the war is over.''
 q am not sure that such a paper as 1 have just read is altogether advisable in a time like the present" Miss Adj dams said. But if there is any ques- tion on that score it should be referred to the committee that invited me here to speak"
 T am sure we are all of us very glad 
 on this subject" interrupted Katherine Waugh McCulloch, chairman of the committee which had invited Miss Addams to speak, and the chairman of the meeting, and We want to thank her for coming
 Someone moved to adjourn and sev- eraf seconded the motion, ending the incident and the meeting
 In the course of her address Miss Addams said:
 Modern wars are not so much guar rels between nations as they are re- belions against international codes The United States is the logical home of pacifism, for our population is es- sentially cosmopolitan. War is a socia1 affair. The civilian suffers as much oI more than the soldier.
 The feelings of German-b born Amer ican citizens should have been con sidered before the war was declared Since the European war began the United States has had a feeling ot moral shirking. This is spirit ot fatalism working against the spirit o1 materialism. The United States owes too much to all nations who have come here to till her, broad prairies to allow the women and children of any natior to starve. The United States should tell her allies she is not in the war fol the purpose of starving women an( children.
 We should have an internationa commission, preferably at Athens ol somewhere in the Balkans, to sit dur. ing the war and see that it is carried op as humanely as possible at least SC far as the civilian population is con. cerned. The pacifist is making a ven. ture into new international ethic. Op position to the war is not necessaril, cowardice."

PETROGRAD. June 10.-CVia Lon don, June 11.)-President Wilson's note to Russia. dealing with the aims of the United States in the war. is published today by all the morning newspapers. The Novoe Vremva. however, is the only journal which comments editorially on it.
 Its aim say the Novoe Vremya. lis to meet the artfulness with which Germany has sought to ensnare Rus sian public opinion. The American president realizes the source of the desperate agitation which has been made in Russia and other countries under the banner of social democracy and false pacifisn. A copy (of the note) must be given to every soldier, workman and peasant.
 Tt must open the eyes of everyone whose brain is not warped by the stupid and criminal stories that the war was started by capitalists for their own benefit The Russian democracy will be able to see the diff ference between the straight forward words of the American democracy and the crude lies by which the servants of the German emperor are trying to deceive the world.

THE GOOD NAME OF yERMoNT'S
SELECTED MEN.

Ii seems almost like a serious refec
tiontion on the sobriety and good repu
tation of the selected men of Vermont
that request should go out for the
closing of the saloons in those places
where the men were TO take train for
the national cantonment In no case dc
the numbers of the departing conscripts
reach more than a few scores of men
nothing like the entrainment of large
bodies of men as in some of the more
populous states; and in some instances
the number is less than dozen. So
there is little likelihood of disturbance
even though some of the men should be
brought into contact with liquor, which
is contingency no more apt to occur
with them than it would be with any
other collection of men in any commu-
nity The selected men of Vermont are
drawn from all walks of life and they
average up well with the people of the
several communities from which they go.
To nsinuate, by the mere act of closing
the saloons in these Vermont communi-
ties. that they would rush into excuses
of intemperance, or even to indulge in
liquor at ALL is, it seems to us, more or
less of yelled insult In some states

men entrained from no-lcense commu-

GERMAN DOCUMENTS CHANGE.

1t is a strangely defensive note which
runs through the public statements of
government leaders and army heads in
Germany at the present time The latest
outcropping of the new note is to be
found in recent pronunciamiento by
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg to the
president Of new patriotic organization
in Germany. No longer is il story Of
we shall defeat the enemy" coupled
with which was the declaration of inten-
tion to collect indemnity from each and
every nation which dared to oppose the
Prussian rule A less boastful tone is
appended to the Hindeuburg letter; there
is a hint even Of some doubt whether

The comparative quiet on the western
war front means that both sides are con
serving their men, their munitions and
their energies for some other great move.
Several weeks have passed since the
British or the French have attempted to
make a great infantry attack, while
the Germans have done nothing better
than to hold their positions intact while
making sporadic raids into the trenches
of their enemies. OF course, a continual
bombardment has been maintained, with
the consequent loss of life as the shells
fall into the trenches; but the sacrifice
has been slight in comparison with that
which goes with an infantry movement
of great offensive. This storing up of
power is studied effort in behalf of
new smash, which is bound to come be-
fore the winter season because there are
still two months of weather just suited
for warfare. At least an offensive by
the British and the French, aided perhaps
by the American expeditionary force
which has been going through course of
training just back of the front, may be
looked for before the end of October.

The government of the United States
is showing marked fairness to the men
of the selected army who may feel that
they should not be called upon to give
field service, inasmuch as it gave them a
right for hearing before the local boards,
followed by the right of appeal to the
district board in the event they were
not satisfied with the ruling of the low
er board Now comes the announcement
that further appeal can be made to the
commander of the cantonment at which
they may be located, and in case his de-
cision is not satisfactory they may even
take their cases to Washington Thus il
will be seen that the widest latitude is
allowed the men who have been drawn
for the national army; indeed, the gov
eminent has gone further in this matter
than might have been expected, in view
of the seriousness of the crisis which is
facing the nation. 1t is not thought like
ly that a very considerable percentage of
the men already drawn will continue
their appeals along the supplementary
manner just announced as possible, be-
cause it may be put down that the cases
in general were decided upon their merits
long before they should come before the
commander of the camp.

The Liberty Motor.

| The Liberty motor" is a triumph OF
cooperation over competition. The
story of Yankee brains producing a new
machine is an old one. There is diff
| ferent note in Sec. Bakers narrative of
how the United States aviation engine
was produced
The competitive method was too slow,
More than score of engineers pooled
their skill, their energies, their creative
faculties, and their trade secrets to pro-
duce an engine which would aid the al
lies to obtain supremacy in the air.
Everything went into the hat, without
reserve. without concealment. And out
of it came product which promises to
be unique in American achievement.
As there was no time for competition,
so there was no time for theorizing. No
element was admitted which had not
been tested by experience. 1t was also
a problem in cooperative organization.
1t was not enough to build one success
full motor The motor industry had TO
be so modified as to produce hundreds
of such engines with the least possible
friction and delay. This necessitated
not only Standardization of motors, but
also standardized machinery for produc-
ING them.
The story of how all this was done,
brief as it necessarily is, reads like a ro
nance But il is a romance with real
ity in it which is the happiest of augu
ries for the future. 1t tells of great in
dustries and technical brains all pulling
together with the government for unit
ed purpose and a common end.
Machines aplenty have been produced
in America for selfish competition. To-
day we have seen the birth of machine
