I The Confmnc'e p——————o * The heavy nations soon will send their delegations here to thirash out schemes by which to end the present reign of fear. As things are mow we're all afraid that war may hitus soon; , we tremble when a dog, bayed its grievance to v.he.‘on Rhode Island “hears a famor fraught «with .t and dis- may; New Jersey's another yacht, and suffers for a fray. Rhode Island ibuilds -herself a ~ parge her bulwarks to defend, and Jersey builds one ‘just as| large, and so on, without end.| The voters raise despairing yips |; while digging 'up long green; v the money . goes. for foolish|". ships that should buy gasoline. “We'll strike," New Jersey|' proudly cries, “until the foe ex- plres,” and socks more taxes on the guys who'd fain buy rubber tires. Rhode Istand says, “Our | dauntless souls defy those war- like boobs,” and taxes eat up all the .rells that should buy.inner tubes. And thus it is, the weorld around; we can’t enjoy a nap; for every time we hear a sound we - think -it means ‘a scrap. Through all men’s hisgory there runs the same old crazy theme; we're building ships’and buying ns, and peace is but a dream. nd when the wise men of the world for peace are here con- voked, may all the battle flags be furled, and alt the swords be soaked.
