FINED MILITARY POLICY FOR THE -FUTURE-NEEOED Experience in i Great War Has Emphasized America’s Lack of Preparedness ABBOTT HERE BOOSTING FOR CHAMBERLAIN BILL “The lesson of our present military and naval unpreparedness is acute enough to prove that we need a fixed policy for the future and that such a policy should be established now, while the lesson is fresh in our minds.” according to George M. Ab- ' bott, field secretary of the Universal | Military Training league of Chicago, who is here for a day or two in the interest of his league. oCntinuing, Mr. Abbott says: “While rushing im- AUDITORIUM - Friday, May 18 THE MOST FASCINATING COMEDY OF THE DAY ENTIRE SEASON ot | POWERS’ THEATRE, CHICAGO.

Curtain 8:15 Permanent Policy. “As a permanent system for the future military and naval policy of jthis country, universal compulsory | military training, along the lines sug: gested by the Chamberlain bill, has ‘both consistency and solidity. Its simplicity and adequateness are too apparent to need argument. Similar ' systems, used by other countries for generations, have worked perfectly. {No other plan has been suggested | that is better, or as good. “This problem of preparedness for the future is more than important, it | p _is absolutely essential to our contin- :ued existence as a nation.

The bill was re-introduced when the present session of congress was organized, and is now known as Senate Bill No. 1. It provides for a six-months’ period Of intensive military training for all young men when they reach the age of 19, who are physically and men- taily fit, under the direction of Unit- ed States army and naval officers and in military camps designated by the government. The expense of the train- ing is. to be borne by the nation.” © CHURCH HOLDS KEY TO PEACE ASSERTS FORMER SOCIALIST David Goldstein Believes Obed- * ience to Law of, Christ Will End World/s Wars THOU SHALT NOT KILL NOT ALWAYS. BINDING “The world will not have peace at the price of peace, and so the nations are deluged, with blgod,” said David Goldstein, in addressing a good-sized audience at the Knights of Columbus hall last night on “ eace and War”. The lecture, or coil the’ aus- pices of Bismarck cofncil, was a real treat. © Mr. Goldste displayed an unusual grasp of hig subject, and as an orator very few ‘public men who have visited Bismarck are to be com- pared with him. The Cause of War “Bad will, denying God’s law and setting up in our own domestic and commercial relations is no founda- tion for international peace,” said the Speaker. “Just so long as there is national greed, envy and jealousy, just go long shall the clash of arms be heard and the only peace we will have will be armed peace, with its ever increasing burden of taxation. This being so, the maintenance of an army and navy is-a necessity today. But every time we see a regiment or a hattleship, it should be a reminder of our.:personal and national disobe- dience to the law of Christ. It is in- deed an evidence of ‘Man’s inhumanity to man that makes countless millions mourn’. Power of the Church “It is interesting to note that these who deny the power of the church cannot forget her claims. Ever since: the outbreak of the European war, I have been frequently questioned as to| ithe contradiction between the law oi! |the Catholic church and the acts of; ‘Catholics. Questions of this charact- ‘er as often show a sincere ignorance jot the law and the power of the church | T+ means much to say that Lanpher hat quality will be maintained. ° It means a hat that has satisfied © for 45.years will continue to do so. The Lanpher Hat $3” eum The church says ‘Thou shalt not kill,’ but, interpreting the law, the church says that you and I have a right to our life; that if an enemy, out of revenge, or if a madman threatens our exist- ence, we may cut him down, and the law ‘Thou shalt not kill,’ is not vio- lated. The church teaches that the state has a right to its own life. While the church says there is such a thing as a just war, she knows that some day, some way, God will punish those nations that wage unjust war, for the state is morally bound to obey the law of God. “Is the European war a just war? The church has no answer. The right to answer belongs to the state. The Catholic church holds the key to a world peace today! It is a most sig- nificant that those powers that have so long ignored Rome are now send- ing envoys to her court. The very idea of the Hague came from the church. It is simple—the price of peace is obedience to the law of Christ.” was urged. on the rules committee today at a hearing on a pending reso- lution to provide for the step. ‘ FIRST MARKET DAY Golden Valley .Holds Initial Ev- ent of Season Saturday Golden Valley, N.
