A HISTORY OF WARFARE
Somewhat of an 'Ar1stocyahc' Viewpoint

There is not word Of the working
class or Of its role.
The authors own viewpoint on the
last war might be described as sort
of aristocratic pacifism with a pro-
ally tinge. He deplores primarily the
killing Of geniuses and intellectual
lights. For the masses he has only
an aristocratic contempt-contempt
for their "malleability."
The actual accounts however of the
methods of warfare Of different coufl-
tries and different a ges viii repay
reading to anyone who is altogether
unfamiliar with the subject, and the
author deserves credit for the thor
oughness with which he disproves the
old lie of the natural warlike or
combative instinct"

Press. So.

IT is somewhat hard to find the exact
- aim Of this rather ambitious book
1t is not history of war as a science
the development of strategy and tao
tics, but rather an account of the de-
velopment of the methods and scope
of warfare throughout the ages and
thru all lands. Within the limitations
of this subject the book has some
value, which is not enhanced however
by the authors style, which is remi-
niscent of an encyclopedia article or
Of the Anticipated textbooks Of gen.
Grafton ago.
To lend unity to the work the author
conceives his subject fancifully as
the story of "the growth of the war
god" This silly personification lends
a theological slant to the whole story,
actually carrying the author into such
metaphorlcal morass as to ascribe a
certain condition to 'the astuteness of
the war-god." Of the fact that the
real unity underlying his story con-
sists in the development of the pro-
ductive forces and of economic sys-
tens, which have been the determin-
ers of the development of warfare, the
author seems to be absolutely ignor-
ant. Instead of being grounded upon
the idea of the economic basis of war,
the book takes purely psychological
viewpoint and concerns itself with the
growth of "warlike psychology" and
the "militarist mind" Quite consist
emily he considers the only enemy of
the "war-god" is "the growth Of a
pacific international psychology"

Americas crack featherweights-
four if Bud Taylor, the bantam
weight champion is included-will
throw gloves at 7 another this
week, two going on here Thursday
and two meeting in New York the
following evening.
joey Sanger of Milwaukee. who
showed his class in q New York ring
recently, returns here for a scrap
with Taylor. Although Taylor does
his best fighting at lis pounds, his
effectiveness against several prom
inent featherweights, including Tony
C~anzoaeri, of New York, has lent
respect TO his work IN the heavier
classification.
The New York fight brings to-
gether Canzoneri and Benny Bass,
the latter holding the National Box
ing association title. Taylor holds q
decision over Canzoaeri and has
fought him to a draw in their two
meetings here, but CanZoneri evened
things by taking a decision when
they met several weeks ago in New
York.
Sanger has been Taylor's nemesis,

iris Is SIGNED
BY ATHLETICS
Senator Star, In New
Berth, Keeps Salary
Figure Secret

NEW YORK, Feb. 6.-(P-Tris
Speaker has landed with the Phila-
delphia Athletics.
The veteran outfielder who was re.
leased q few days ago by the Wash
ington Senators came to terms with
Connie Mack and as a result will
report at the Athletics training
quarters at Fort Meyers, March l.
Mack's signing of Speaker fills a
gap made in the Philadelphia out
field by the release of Ty Cobb and
Zach Wheat. Last season Spoke
1t is understood, recivd a salary
from the Senator'S ranging from s4O.-
600 to $4,000 which price was an
obstacle this rear for a renewal Of
contract.
Speaker declined to accept a re-
ductlo1, as suggested by Clark Grf-
nth OF the Washington club.
Neither Iris nor Mack would COM
ment on the salary arrangement
I'm satisfied with the terms and
SO is Connie" Speaker said.
Mack paid Cobb 2 huge sum last
year, some reports quoting his SER
vices commanding as high as $4,000,
which would be $4,000 under Babe
Ruth's annual check from Colonel
Rupert.
The addition OF Speaker to the
Philadelphia roster will give Mack
q veteran outfield with Iris at cen
ter, Al Simmons at left and Bine
Miller IN the right corner.
Speaker commented on his stay
with the Senator's as a most pleas
ant relationship and referred to
Bueky Harris as one of the great
est managers in baseball.
As TO his new affiliations the
Gray Eagle" said the Athletics had
fine prospects and that he looked
forward 70 playing under Mack with
great satisfaction.
Asked what he thought of the ap-
preaching pennaaat scramble and the
Yankees, Iris replied:
"Of course the Yankees are q
great machine but the Athletics and
other members of Ge circuit are
bound to furnish plenty of opposi-
ton. The Athletics were second
last year and like the other clubs
they will be out for the champion
ship"
