Although by special act passed

HABIT OF WAR
CAN Be CURED,
SAYS PACIFIST
World Engaged in Conflict
and Peace Race, Asserts
Mrs. Cat.o
BY JOSEPH w. WASNEY
United Press staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.-The
world is engaged in a race between
war and peace, according to Mrs.
Carrie Chapman Gait, famous
American pacifist.
preparations and propaganda for
war never were more vigorous, but
the universal movement for peace
is also strong and gaining momen-
tum," Mrs. Gait told the United
Press in an exclusive interview to-
day.
WAR is caused by the habit Of
settling disputes that way. When
I listed 257 causes alleged to have
brought on the actual wars of his
tory, I perceived war had no other
cause except habit.
1.-THE one and only real cure for
war is a series of ironclad treaty
pledges. between civilized nations,
binding them never again to make
war for any purpose, but to settle.
any and all differences by peaceful
means.
Fear Public Opinion
Mrs. Gait, here to attend the an
nual meeting ofsthe National Com
mittee on the Cause and Cure of
War, declared disarmament was
nothing over which the nations
should now struggle.
She predicted ornaments would
vanish when the sense of security
engendered by anti-war treaties
changes the mentality of nations.
Mrs. Gait said that when all
countries have peace treaties, not a
single nation would threaten war
because then it would fear public
opinion. 1t would be unnecessary,
she said, to have armies or navies
OF keep bellicose powers in line.
There is race, however, between
treaties on one hand and war on the
other, as to which one will beat the
other to the goal," she said.
Should there ever be another war
it will be caused by economic rivalry
instead of territorial conquest which
has caused the majority of other
conflicts.
May Fight for Markets
Another war, if there is one,
would be a fight for possession of
markets
= Mrs. Gait said the League of MAJ
tons would have no effect on peace
Treaties negotiated between powers
but that if all countries joined the
League there would be better under
standing between nations.
War is only the primitive instinct
Of animals and as soon as the world
becomes civilized and humanized
war will end forever" she con-
cluded. at is caused by SquabbleS
just as you find in an ordinary
chicken-yard and the population of
the world today certainly should be
above the common garden fowl"

BIGGER NAVAL BASE IN
HAWAII IS PROPOSED
Magruder Says Next Great Pacific
Battle to Be West of Islands.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.-In the
opinion of Admiral Thomas P. Ma
gruder, forty-two years in the Skrv-
ice, the United States Nays next
great battle in the Pacific will be
fought about a thousand miles west
of Hawaii"
Without mentioning names of any
nations, Admiral Magruder ex-
pressed this opinion during his testi-
mony before a Congressional Com
mittee.
He recommended a bigger naval
base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, say
ing vessels damaged in "the next
conflict" would be too distant to
reach the Pacific coast.
1t is conceivable, Magruder said,
that daring enemy might raid our
Pacific coast cities and inf1ict some
damage. But this wouldn't win the
war" Magruder said. "The war
would be won in a naval engage
ment far out in the Pacific"
