And For This, The Jingoes
of Our Country Call Our
Pacifists Traitors"

Atho the pacifists give full credit TO the sin
certify OF the ordinary man who yearns for war
as means OF settling questions and UNFOLDING
the honor Of the country. the majority OF anti
paclsts appear TO be utterly incapable OF justice
toward the point OF view OF the former.
They only call names do the anti-suf-
fragists 10 the suffrASists. and take refuge IN
generaIities which are easy, cheap and do not
need specific backing up.
Nothing Is more significant Of weakness than
IL the calling Of names.
II there are any persons inclined 10 war and
militarism who still wish 70 be just and fair to
large number OF other persons turnout the
country who believe themselves as useful and
honorable citizens as the former. but who have
arrayed themselves on the side OF pacifism.
II might be well to define for thsm, briefly what
The pacifists are standing for.
They believe that war 10 the most ineffect-
uRl unjust and barbarous means OF settling in
ternatjonsl questions and that II belongs 20 a
period Of the world when men had not evolved
into a semblAnce OF moral beings.
They also can see no end TO war II someone
does not take the lead and assume a stand
against H.
The United States. being great. powerful and
geographically safer than other countries. and
having stood for democratic principles, they
think II is the logical nation to start the new
era OF peace and find means for the settlement
Of disputes other than killing.
They believe so thoroly In the principles OF
democracy that they do not think that one
hundred million people should be involved in a
war without the consent Of the majority. AMI
regard the nations honor as resting upon a
pinnacle 20 high that II will refuse to conde
seend 10 slaughter 10 maintain itself
They believe that this same honor r. OF a
much finer quality " Il endeavors TO protect
it's own citizens from their own rash thoughts
nd refuses 10 lei them be stampeded into war
by certain interests" OF steel and other vSrie-
ties under the name OF patriotism"
They regard the European nations mad
and do not believe that this or any war. can
be a Of civilization
They desire 10 stop the war. II possible. be
ieving that utter defeat Of Germany VIII
only lead 10 greater wars In the future and "a
greater armament which will psnperi5e the Eu
ropean people.
they believe that peace could be ar
-anKed by which no country would be humii
ated II would be the greatest insurance against
more wars.
They emphaticaly disbeheve that military
preparations are the best methods for keeping
out OF war and think that military training
leads directly TO militarism. which is the fos
I ter mother OF armed conflict. as is plainly
| shown by the condition OF Europe today.
They oppose all entering wedges OF military
| training In the public schools. no matter how
rosy and ailuring the arguments brought tc
bear.
Finally. they believe in the democratic rule
OF the majority and have strong hopes that Il
la vote OF the American people was taken OF
entering the war. II would be NO"
