FRANK ]. HUBER
(Cannelton, Ind. Enquirer)


After a lingering illness that ex-
tended over a period of four months,
Frank J. Huber passed away Sunday
last shortly after the noon hour at
the home of his father-in-law, Mayor
John Zimmerman, on Washington
street.
Last January Frank was taken sick
with flu and has since been confined
to his bed. Pneumonia followed the
flu and then came a complication of
troubles from which he could not re-
cover. The deceased was a native of
Cannelton, having been born here, and
was 55 years old. He was a son of
Mr.. and Mrs. John Huber, pioneer
residents of Cannelton. His father
died in this city in 1865, after which
the mother and children went to Flor
ida to reside. The mother passed
away about seven years ago. Frank
followed railroad work in the clerical
division and was a valued man in his
line. He lived in Ocala, Fla, and was
there connected with the Atlantic
Coast Line He was in the employ of
the latter for more than twenty years
and part of this time he was station
e.; at st. Petersburg, Fla. He served
the city of Ocala as postmaster four
years under President Taft.
In 1900 he was married to Miss
Lille Zimmerman, of this city. About
two years ago he and his wife came
to Cannelton to visit. About a year
| ago he returned to Florida and took
up his old line of work and later
| came back to Cannelton and remain
ed here until his death. He is sur
vived by his wife and two brothers,
John, of Bronson, Fla, and Charles,
of Chiefland. Fla. The brothers could
not reach Cannelton for the funeral
services on Wednesday, and the body
was placed in the WILDER vault IN
Cliff cemetery to await burial at a
later date.
The funeral services were conduct
ed Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock
at the Zimmerman residence by Rev
Whitfield of the M. E. church.

son of the assassination of an arch duke in a remote place in the Balkans, so failed to provide machinery for the adjustment of international con- troversies that out of this obscure in- cident, this conf1agra ton arose that that after involving all Europe, Asia and Africa it crossed the ocean which had been considered an impossible barrier making the United States a safe place regardless of what hap pened in Europe and we were dragged into the controversy in order that civ ilization might be saved.
 It was necessary for JiS to send two million men across the submarine in fested sea and we weer training two million more men here. When the armistlce came we had -7- Goldi CTS in Europe than Great 4 fter the war had gone threo more we would have had mCra France Six months longer and we would have ish combined. This obscure cause had let loose forces that threatened to ensulf civilization. If there was to be any country at all it was neces- sary for America to reach out the right arm of her righteousness and defend on foreign soil tottering civ ilization.
 Before we went in wise men be- gan to shudder-~at the horrible cost of any such outbreak Many people were striving to find some way to prevent outbreaks of war, when the war broke out they hadn't gotten very far. There were national aS- pirations and passions and difficulties of every sort that made it difficult to get nations to agree to confer about anything that interfered with their plans.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1920-10-07

When August, 1914 came and the war appeared a threatening cloud, Sir Edward Grey, the British Foreign Minister was sending telegramS to the Czar of Russia, the German Elm peror, the Emperor of Austria, the President of France, filling the air with his telegrams saying don't go to war yet, stop everything for moment of medltation and get the wisest people we can get together and compose this controversy, but there was no machinery to bring that about It was diplomacy of the stage coach age brought down to an age when things moved with lightning rapidity. There was no machinery prepared.
 As the war progressed We began to see that the war was getting so fearful that it must never be per mitted to happen again. The first was made by ex-President Taft who suggested that we ought to go into League to Enforce Peace among all the civilized nations to restrain the aggressive ambition Of any nation that desired to disturb the peace of the world.
 Then the President. I hesitate to mention him without stating his part in that. When the President was well, when that wonderful voice and wonderful presence of his was able to go out and speak to the people face to face these towards that slan- der him now didn't dare to s1ander him.

In- deed I think if Senator Brandegee were here he would give his consent to my saying that he is the most re- acttonary Senator in the Senate. know of no progressive legislation that Senator Brandegee has ever fla - vored. I am interested in progressive Legislation, and as a citizen of Ohio l hope the citizens of Connecticut will select a progressive Senator in order trat we may have progressive legisla- ton. Senator Brandegee's views on labor are reactionary, his views on woman suffrage are reactionary. don't think any woman ought to vote against him out of spirit of rever- -e. That is a wrong spirit, but there is a high motive why women should vote against him and men, too, and that is that a man who is so out of step with the spirit of his age as to believe that Lone-ha1f of the human race ought not to have a voice in choosing the government under which they must live is essentially unfit to doll with modern problems.
 Now I come to a question which interests you most vitally. That is the League of Nations.
 Let me explain just a little as to how We come to have any issue of a League of Nations. In 1914 the great est catastrophe befe11 the human race of which history has any record since the flood. More property was de- stroyed, more lives sacrificed on the field of battle and more women and children done to death from 1914 to November, 1918 than in any other mankind, multiplied by four. Eight million men died in battle. Probably fifty Or sixty million men, women and children died of starvation and pestf- lence by reason of the existence of that war.
 In Poland in 1917 it was told to me by those who know that there was not living in Poland in the whole of that great nation a child son that the babies, one, two and three years of age had starved to death or had fled from advancing armies into the woods and died or they were trampled to death by ar mics which marched one way and then remarched the other. Why did that happen?
 This is the most enlightened age that man has reached. We have lit and yet supreme as man has become over the forces of nature, relieved as he is by these inventions from ancient fears that used to attack our ances- tors of starvation by reason of bad harvests and that sort of thing, man ESQ little understood the perils which were arising in the world that by req
