YOUR A FOR A

There is in America a growing abhorrance
of war as manifested in the resentment of tax
burdens in which eighty cents out of every dol
lar represent military and naval expenditures,
past, present or for the future. It is expressed
in the Senate resolution for naval disarmament;
in President Harding's address over the bodies
of our returned soldier dead: 1T must not be
again.; in Secretary Denby's address at the
Naval Academy, where the declarations against
warfare were almost o~utcries. War has become
such a ~frightful thing that it is revolving. The
picture is dreadful. Contemplate it. Submar-
inc treachery, aerial poison showers, p~ropagat-
ed epidemics, internal gases, involving the SOL
diers in the trenches and the civilians in the
village and hamlet and even on the farms in
a common ruin. international agreement can
end all this, and an international tribunal can
settle international differences much more sat-
isfactorily and far less extensively than can be
dom by force of arms.
