PERPETUAL PEACE

WHEN Samuel Gompers OF the American Fedora
ton OF Labor said that Labor all over the world
stands for the Disarmament Conference that Labor
everywhere desires to use its offices toward the elm
nation OF wars he but expressed the desire OF all the
world. II war ever had any poetry that poetry has
been rudey slain by the improved devices Tor killing
man. When the world is emerging from maestrom
OF war that swept seven million men from the earth
and left the world filled with widows and orphans and
poverty it is time that governments were getting to-
gether to slay war instead OF being slain by it,
Historians have told us OF glowing acts OF heroiSm
in war We are taught revere the acts OF heroism
on the part OF men and the children OF every
other nation are taught to love the heroes OF their
wars and the consequence is that we are taught in
the schools that war is right that there is glory in
battle that there is imperishabe honor in falling in
battle.
Poisonous gas, falling OF proecties from the sky
explosion OF vast underground mines, yeritable
hell OF bursting shells that are thrown for many miles
all these have lifted from war all the romance it
ever had.
Our fortunes are not only linked with the people

Dwight L. Moody, son of Rev c. NJ
Moody, recent pastor of the Middle
bury Methodist Church, and who was
formerly editor of the Middlebury
College Campus, is at the Pulitzer
School OF Journalism, Columbia Uni
versity, in New York. Some Of his
friends who have word from him learn
that he stood among the highest five
in his class of 60 students in reporter
ial work. or news writing. He writes
that he has become closely identified
with the Socialist party and upon con-
clusion OF his course at Columbia he
intends to embark on newspaper work

While editor of The Campus, the
weekly publication of Middlebury Col

of the student body against faculty
censorship or revision Of the paper. His
unwillingness to accept such revision
of an editorial OF his regarding the
Professor Lawrence controversy re
suited in his dismissal.

John E. Weeks

The nomination of John E. Weeks
as director of state institutions and
his confirmation by the Senate brings
to an end rumors that Mr. Weeks
would not be reappointed Just how
much pressure was brought to bear on
Gov. Hartness, and the direction from
which it was aimed, not to again name
the Middlebury man. has been yelled
with some mystery. Whether it was
a sanding operation to slow up the
recently unauthorized boom of him
for governor two years hence, is a
question that furnishes food for thought.
1t is still too early to talk about gov
ernor in 1923, but, at any rate the
publicity serves as a warning to Add
son county on subject it may one
of these DAYS be expected to give
earnest and prayerful consideration.
Reverting to state institutions it IS no
secret that Mr.. Weeks management
has converted a lukewarm supporter
of no less person than Governor Glenn
ent, who at the end of his term went
out of his way to praise the Director
in his retiring message and that praise
was not lost on the General Assembly
which greeted it with applause. The
personal comforts contributed by Mr..
Weeks in his rounds of the institution
which never got into the state expense
column, also shows he is man with
a heart. Montpelier Argus
