THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

debts and reparations have been
adjusted; pact has been signed by
all nations renouncing war as an
arbiter in international controver-
sizes.
These are great movements IN the
direction of world peace. They give
some assurance that nations are APP
preaching the time when they shall
have respect for law. Armistice day,
in the year 1929. is rich in assur-
ance. therefore, of peace.
But the real test soon is to come.
Will we put away some Of these vast
ornaments which are not for peace,
but for war? In view Of all of our
protestations for peace, are we not
willing to seal our faith with our
deeds and reduce the stupendous
machines fit for nothing on earth
except to do that which We profess
we are not going to do.
An armed world is a fighting
world, and peace pacts, whatever
may be their terms or how univer-
sal their application, will not make
it otherwise. If the nations are not
willing to reduce drastically their
implements of war, we can not hope
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1929-11-11

to realize what the peace pacts
imply.
1t is often said that war between
Great Britain and the United States
is "unthinkable." That is flimsy
and jaded rhetoric. We give plenty
Of proof that war between the
United States and Great Britain is
thinkable and that We are thinking
about it constantly while building
and maintaining and continuing to
increase the most formidable navies
in the world.
Armistice, therefore, should be q
day for renewed efforts in the cause
of peace, as well as a day for re-
joicing over achievements already
recorded.
The world has no need Of th5
stupendouS ornaments now burden
ing the people of every nation under
the sun. And the people of the
world should organize and direct
public opinion to the end that these
ornaments be reduced.
That would not only be evidence
of our faith, but an incalculable
blessing to humanity.

merely as to their necessity. They were
not needed and the audience heard
them in frigid silence. The play would
have been just as effective with little
deleting.
The world apparently knows itself
rather we'll today and accepts realistic
presentation of, for instance, life in the
mud and slime of the trenches, but
here we have play announced not as
war play. but as one of the time of
readjustment. But one scene pertains
to the days of combat.
Clark Gable capably handles the role
of the chap who, though having moral
objections to war as social remedy,
joins the air corps. makes a great
record as an ace and then is dropped
down in his old life, untitled for the
deadly routine of business and social
life, fettered by conventional require
ments and life of seeming unimpor-
glamour at the front. OF sud-
den he marries the sweetheart of a
brother of the air corps, forgetful of
the girl whom he loved and who waited
for him. Domestic troubles ensue, and
Indifferent to all life generally, he loses
one job after another. At last, how
ever, the situation is cleared. his wife
departs and he is freed to take up life
anew as a commercial aviator and to
marry the girl who understood him.
The story would have been more con-
silently entertaining had subjects not
germane been omitted: the war scene
and prologue lifted out and the post
war situations properly embellished.
Peggy Allenby, who has been seen
here to advantage in other plays, takes
the part of the disillusioned wife of the
"misft" veteran, and handles the role
with finesse. Miss Dennie More cast

Despite many. many odds, the COM
edy drama by Warren F. Lawrence pre-
sents in interesting light and with I'M
doubted touches here and there of
clean-cut authenticity the tribulations
of a wartime ace as a misfit in post
war days, both in domestic and bust
ness life.
The situation of captain Of the air
corps who scared overseas to great
heights, literally and figuratively, In
bellicose times as an American aviator,

days of readjustment and placidity, no
doubt has many counterparts in real
life.
The author of the new offering at this
house thus caught a worthy idea for
the stage. but the handling OF the Sit
uation proves something different. In
terest attaching itself to the story as
told by Lawrence, it must be said, can
be attributed primarily to the idea mo-
tivating the play and to the sincere and
capable efforts of the cast, rather than
to the mechanical operation Of the plot.
