is probably safe 70 say that the

THE DOVE OF PEACE DANGERS.

The American people are for peace
with the world and for world peace,
and there is widespread approval of
the good start that has been made at
the armament conference in Washing
ton.
1t is to be hoped that nothing will
spring up out of the darkness which
we call future, to interrupt the devel-
opment of the movement for peace and
good will. But let us not forget that
there are clouds that may expand in
an uncomfortable way.
Japan, finding America and England
a unit for limited armament, must
make a show of agreement. But
Japan is as militaristic as Germany
was. Her leaders are warriors by in
stinct and inheritance and her people
in the massacre willing followers of
those leaders.
Let's come nearer home. The treaty
at Paris was agreed TO without reckon
ing with Congress which had the final
say. Already people are beginning to
say hal the power of deciding on
what our navy shall be is vested by
the constitution in Congress, and not
in the administrators of government.
1t is declared that neither III anna
ment delegates o our State Depart
ment can make any agreement with
foreign countries as to the size our
navy should be; nor can they carry
out any promise as to the s%crapping
of ships.
There has been one distressing eX-
ample of the results of Haunting con-
gress. 1t is probable that in view of
what has passed, statesmen will avoid
another such squabble. We hope
there will be no squabble owe peace
on earth"

the planting of two large sign posts

owe the crossing. Too many serious

WE SECOND THE MOTION.
From Atlantic County Record.

From Atlantic County Record.
Atlantic County may well take
thought to designating her splendid
new highways by distinctive titles.
The old method of calling them the
Mays Landing Pleasantville, or the
Egg Harbor Absecon roads, is clum-
sy and unimpressiye. Why not name
the new road from this place to Pleas
antville the ASHMEAD ROAD, in
honor of the late John p. Ashmead?
This would be a brief, striking title
and would forever honor the memory
of n whose services to the county
merit such especial and lasting recog-
milton.
