GAS.
EDITOR EVENING NEWS:
We need gas. The Gas Company
needs more money. The city needs
the Gas Company's land for it's park
program as outlined in the EVENING
NEWS.
The people in the southern section
don't want the Gas Company. The
Gas Company in its present condition
can't supply the demand and, as the
EVENING NEWS states, if the Gas
Company builds we will have TO pay
more for the property which we will
eventually acquire.
1t is necessary for a city which calls
itself a pacemaker to protect its citi-
zens from the Gas Company wher

city, can prastieatx 4be '.nnblic be

At present there is ne kick about
the supply of gas. but/when winter
comes again we are bound to have
what we've had in the past, gas which
was unusable fl anything except as
an excuse for the monthly bills.
If we are as we claim to be, a pace
making city, we would follow the ex-
ample of New York city and set 4
standard for the gas used in this city
and establish a testing station to see
that the standard was maintained.
If the gas went below standard inc

Gas Company long to find out hat its
present location is unanswerable to the
engagements which the demand
would require and it would think e

NEWS made, that it move to Maure

supply the requirements of the terri
tory north of us.

Reduction OF Armaments

BY Article VIII the League men,
bers expressly declare that the main
tenance Of peace requires the reduc-
ton Of national ornaments to the
lowest point consistent with national
safety and the enforcement by COM
mon action Of international obliga-
tons. Taking account of the geo.
graphical situation and circumstances
of each state, the Council Is to formu-
late plans for such reduction for the
consideration and action of the sew
eral governments. The League men,
bers agree to exchange full informal
ton as to the scale of their m
ments. their military and naval pro-
grammes and their warlike industries.
After adoption by the several govern
ments of the plan of reduction, the
limits Of ornaments therein fixed are
not to be exceeded without the con-
currence of the Council. The plans
are to be recvnndered and revised at
least every ten years The League
members agree that the manufacture
by private enterprise OF munitions and
implements Of war Is open to grave
objections and the council is to ad-
wise how these evils can be prevented
This Is the first of the four great
steps toward securing permanent
peace in the League. Constitution and

great factors In bringing on this war
and in making 1t what II was was the
race In ornaments between the Euro

perfected its military establishment by
winning three wars, first against Dem
mark, secondly against Austria and
then against France-thus the Ger
man Empire was made in 1871. From
that time on, the German armament
has been increased and has kept pace
with the growth of German desire for
world domination. A thorough and
drastic system of conscription, mili-i
tary training and reserves, built up
the German military establishment so
that 1t was a perfect machine and
far more formidable than thai of any,

establishments went on increasing

Germany acquired laval ambition, and /,
then the race began between her and

Evils of Militarism
The inevitable result of all of this
with its intent was war and war came.
The evils may be easily summarized.
First: Grievous burdens of taxation /
were imposed upon the peoples of the
competing countries. Their product

by consuming three years of the best

young men.
Second: Consciousness of the power |

Haunted to the world the dipIomatic

military machine and his knowledge
of the defects of the Russian and
French machines led him to improve

fects OF his rivals could be supplied.
Thus the race of armament brought
on this war.
Third: The growth of these enor-
