READINESS FOR
WAR AID To
PEACE
Secretary of Labor Davis So
Tells Spanish War Vets
in Convention.

BY International News Service.
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, Sept. 20.
The American nation should al.
ways seek peace throughout the
world, but, at the same time, it
should ever be ready to grid itself
for battle, in order to preserve the
fundamental institutions of free gov
eminent, upon which rests the
permanence of our republic" Secre-
tary Of Labor James j. Davis told
the Spanish War Veterans con-
vention here today.
Let us live and strive in the light
Of those eternal truths laid down by
the founders Of the nation, for. which
millions Of Americans have offered
to make the final sacrifice" he
added.
Secretary Davis told the veterans
there was no finer. thing in the
national character OF the American
people than the veneration which
the nation pays to the men who
have offered themselves in pa
trfotic devotion upon the altar of
war for the good OF their country"
The Labor Secretary said the
country can recognize no discrimi-
nation among those who have Of
fered their lives that the nation
might endure.
THE men who suffered at Sib.
oney and Santiago, and the men
who penetrated the Moro juagles,
fought under the same flag and
for the same principles that led
the men at Monmouth and Prince
ton, of Chateau Thferry and Of the
Argonne," he said. ITO all the
nation owes the same debt Of graft
tude. No material benefit OF com.
pensation or Of pension we ran of.

other"

opponents in their last game of the

arranged here for next Saturday night.
The st. Marks live met n somewhat
undeveloped team in the Bobcats open

they will meet a much stronger aggre-
CATION in the Bobcats windup contest.
A. NJ. Venue. who refereed the first
game at San Marcos and will act in the
same capacity here next Saturday. is
authority for the fact that Normal,
which he watched several times recent
ly, is a far better team now than in
the initial appearance of the season.
The Bobcats have developed the five
man defense, especially, and St. Marks
brilliant collection of goal-shooters will
find trouble getting into range of the
basket.
