THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON. D. C., TUESDAY, APRIL 6, 1937. *% A—3 continuously for permanent peace, 12 DIE N SOUTH INHEAVY STORMS Floodwaters Menace South- eastern Alahama—Fam- ilies Flee Homes. BY the Associated Press. MONTGOMERY, Ala, April 6.— Flood water menaced Southeastern Alabama today while the South counted 12 killed by week-end wind and rain storms. Yesterday's rainfall of 2 to 10 inches over the Central Southern tier of Alabama counties sent the Conecuh, Pea and Choctawatchee rivers racing past flood stages and drove dozens of families from low-lying homes. ‘Weather Bureau observers said they were unable to estimate the crests of the three relatively small streams, but the inundation of hundreds of acres of farm land was feared while the rain load was being carried through South- eastern Alabama and Northwestern Florida to the Gulf. Precautions were taken in the Brewton, Geneva and Elba districts. A precipitation of ' to 4 inches was the rule from Eastern Texas to the Carolinas yesterday, while winds of near tornadic force centered their attack on Alabama, killing 6, injuring | 29, and destroying thousands of dol- | lars worth of buildings. A Sunday squall on the fringes of yesterday's disturbance caused the first fatalities when six were drowned after two boats overturned in a lake near San Antonio, Tex. Mississippi and Louisiana suffered scattered property losses in high winds which injured a dozen or more per- sons. ‘Today's forecast called for less wind and falling temperatures under clearer skies, to be followed by an early re- turn to more normal Spring weather. Outside of Alabama, New Orleans reported the heaviest damage, charg- ing to the Sunday blow some $25,000 loss in felled trees and battered build- ines. Mississippi’s Madison and Simp- son Counties reported dozens of farm buildings flattened. Quick Rise at City Hall.

Written for the Associated Press. | NEW YORK, April 6—On this| twentieth anniversary of America’s entrance into the war I would iike to | believe the world had learned the fu- tlity of conflict. I would like to believe that aggres- sion and nationalist hatreds exist only in the history books, that nations could settle their disputes peacefully. I would like to believe that the world | practiced the high idealism of Wood- | row Wilson, that his hope had become a reality. I would like to blieeve every nation hated war equally. But we learned little, if anything, from the war. The nations of the world are marching again down the same old road that led to 1914. Instead of the disarmament en- visioned by the treaty of Versallles, the world is spending astronomical sums for new weapons of destruction. Instead of the security promised in the treaty, the feeling of insecurity surpasses even the early Summer of 1914, The treaty itself has been nulli- fied. Spain Miniature Example. 1t is horrifying to consider the con- sequences of the war for which the BERNARD M. BARUCH. world is now preparing. You may be | sure the civilian population will not | be spared. The devastation in Spain | is but a miniature example. Of what is this civilization of which we speak 50 much and so proudly? It | is not pleasing to write of such mad- ness, but it is no avail to present false portrayals. There is more to the disheartening situation than the billions being spent for defenses and rearmaments—bil- lions which, if used in the ways of peace, would go far toward abolishing slums and lessening poverty. Economic Gibraltars and Verduns have been erected and these barriers to trade have increased the interna- tional {ll-will. Their elimination alone would be a great contribution to peace.

Who and what is to blame for this Some believe the Hitler, that it was unjust to impose upon Germany the reparations and the admission of guilt. strongly opposed these clauses at Ver- sailles, but the vengeance engendered by French fears and the spirit of Eng- land’s “khaki” campaign prevailed. The German army, some believe, is the dominating danger to the peace of Europe and of the world, and the narrow, selfish view at Versailles has reaped its reward of fear. Others may believe the imperialism of Japan and the Red and Fascist dictatorships are more dangerous than | the Nazi. But this is not the day to fix the blame. It is, instead, the day to call upon the peoples of all countries to pay no heed to warlike rulers. It 1s time to practice the civilization we preach. I will not believe democracy has failed. I will not believe the peo- ples themselves do not want and pray for peace, that they look forward to naught but war, But their voices must be strong. ‘They of old, fearing the marauder, pleadingly asked: “Watchman, what of the night?” ‘The peoples of today, having passed through the night of barbarism, should not plead, but should demand: “Statesmen, what of the day?” Spain (Continued From First Page.) fully effective has not been put into effect—and its success depends on Italy’s collaboration. The insurgent successes in Northern Spain brought a “final ultimatum” from insurgent Gen. Emilio Mola %o the Basque defenders of the coastal city of Bilbao. He warned them to “surrender or suffer literal destruc- tion of the province” (the province of Vizcaya.) Mola’s men were within sight of one objective, the strategic town of Durango. Their commanders said in- habitants of that town and of Bilbao were fleeing. The Madrid-Valencia administra- tion organized new militia bodies to reinforce troops striving to break the semi-circle of insurgent lines near Madrid.

GREAT MILITARY CAMP IS ONLY A MEMORY BY the Associated Press. BORDEAUZX, France, April 6.—The decaying Roman stones of a little chapel are all that remain on a site full of memories for thousands of American veterans whom America’s declaration of war on Germany landed here 20 years ago. The largest military camp the world ever had seen was built for and by the A. E. F. round the little chapel outside Bordeaux where Roman legion- naires once rested. ‘The chapel was built from stones of the old Roman camp. Roman and American camps are both gone, but the chapel is still there. R e, Australia now has 15 subsi@eeed and 21 unsubsidized air services. ® Special Used Values © Mendelssohn Apt.

Corner 13th The Americans | PEACE PROGRESS Will Stronger, But Must Be Mobilized, Anti-War Leader Says. “This Congress would vote for war just as Congress did 20 years ago unless the people speak their will more forcibly than they are speaking it today.” This arresting pronouncement fell gently from the lips of a vivacious, gray-haired woman who two decades ago suffered all the vituperation and ridicule that a war-med Nation could muster—Jeannette Rankin of Mon- tana, first woman elected to Congress. Today, as you talk to Miss Rankin in her modest and tastefully fur- nished apartment in Georgetown, one finds her not bitter but wise. Wise with an experience that has hardened her ideals into a practical philosophy and taught her how to make votes for peace count more than the one she cast against America’s entrance into the World War on that stormy April day in 1917. In Miss Rankin's lexicon, realism and pessimism are by no means synonymous. America, she says, has gone a long way on the winding road to peace. But she isn’t carried away by the peace pledges from pulpits that once echoed the bugles, or by the pronouncement soumded in every political forum, echoed by even the most cynical of columnists, shouted impertinently by college sophomores, murmured by ciub women or threat- ened by labor. And that's why Miss Rankin spends her time these days in the cloak rooms and lobbies of the Capitol, and like- wise out in the highways and by- ways, rustling the votes that are needed to turn hazy hopes into reality. Will to Peace Stronger. The will to peace is stronger to- day, she says, than it ever has been, but it has to be mobilized. These are her reasons for believ- ing it First, she says, governments (our own included) realize that a war will obliterate them as they stand—oblit- erate the form of government as well as the leaders who represent it. Second, there is a real peace nu- cleus in Congress. Watch them ap- plaud a real peace move, she says. Third, the people have been think- ing. Since the depression they have figured out what the war cost not only in terms of the material loss, but moral loss as well. And that, she believes, is the important thing. “War is a habit,” she tells you, “and habit is something you use in an emergency when you haven't time to think. More people are accepting the peace habit of thought.” The World War came as a sur- prise. Americans could hardly be- lieve it had actually happened when they read their newspapers. And to | the very last minute people refused to accept the possibility that we would be drawn into it. Now, says Miss Rankin, at least we realize that another war may be upon us. That foreknowledge, she declares, is an advantage. Scene on April 6, 1917. and picture the scene in the House | of Representatives on April 6, 1917. | Miss Rankin had just returned from |a trip to New Zealand. When she entered the House it was to face an ordeal that few would | care to meet. She had been the | first woman to enter that group as a member. Woman suffrage was & ! bitterly contested question. Her | pacifistic predelicitions were known. The newspaper reports of the scene | that followed left little sympathy for her conduct. Fear that she might ‘ influence others, she believes, prompt- | ed it. Her own story differs. When she entered, instead of the usual | buzz of voices there was a dead | silence. The galleries were filled. | She could feel every eye on her. | When the second roll call was | reached she rose and spoke one sen- | tence: “I want to stand by my coun- | try, but I cannot vote for war.” Im- | mediately there was a confusion of voices and her vote “No” could not be heard. It was reported that she did not vote, and that the clerk had to come to her seat to get the vote. Much was made of the fact that she wept. But, as she points out, & whole flood of masculine tears had preceded hers. Chief Justice Taft’s wide cheeks had been dampened with a generous flood when President Wilson delivered his war massage. Representative Kitchin wept openly and unashamed. So did others. But in the ridicule that folowed her tears were the only ones that were analyzed as less than 3.2 patriotic. There were probably three things that dictated her “No”: A belief in !

On the twentieth anniversary of America’s declaration of war against Germany—the House voted for the war resolution on April 6, 1917, after the Senate had acted two days previously—the comman= der in chief of the American Ez- peditionary Forces, still hale and active at 76, reviews the issues of that conflict and America’s part in winning it. Warning against the consequences of another war, he sounds a call to “rid the world of the crushing armaments that fear is providing.” BY GEN. JOHN J. PERSHING. “It is a terrible thing to lead a people into war,” said President Wilson in his message to Congress 20 years ago. But it would have been a cowardly and dangerous thing not to lead us into war in defense of those sacred liberties which were so dearly won by the founders of the republic. The Presi- dent chose the honorable and neces- sary course. He placed himself and the country, unready though we were for war, squarely in opposition to the continued violation of human and property rights. But those with whom he contended did not believe the latent strength of the country could be effectively or- ganized in time to thwart their selfish ambition for world supremacy. We were at the time practically disarmed. | Here it may be pointed out that this noble example, which some of our people thought would be followed by other nations, had made no appeal whatsoever to the war-maddened war lords. On the contrary, it had simply created a condition of which they were eager to take advantage. No leader ever labored more patiently or more conscientiously to keep his people out of war than did Presi- dent Wilson. He made every possible plea to humanity and advanced every possible moral argument in insisting upon respect for our rights on the high seas. They were without avail. Momentous Decision. I was at San Antonio, Tex., in com- mand of the Southern Department, when the momentous decision was made. No one foresaw that this de- cision would lead to the greatest mili- tary undertaking in our history. About a month after it was announced, I was ordered to Washington, and there, |much to my surprise, Mr. Baker, Sec- retary of War, informed me of my selection as commander in chief of our expeditionary forces and directed me to select a staff and go abrosd at once. No army was yet in exist- ence, and War Department plans were still indefinite. from France was that a force of at | least 1,000,000 men be sent over as the folly of war, nursed by Jane Addams’ peace organization; a belief that her people didn't want it (she was the only Republican elected from Montana in the Democratic landslide, and her support came from those who thought she was safer for peace than the followers of the President); lastly, the ardent persuaders who to tell her what we were really fight- ing for, specifically, and what the terms of peace would be. In those days Miss Rankin really wasn't an active pacifist. She didn't turn her energies specifically in that direction until the Kellogg anti-war pact was signed and she believed that, for the first time, war had been made officially and specifically dis- reputable. She belicves in that pact. Not because it has worked, but be- cause it raised a sign post. We didn't stop Japan from taking Manchuria, she says, or Italy from taking Ethiopia, but we haven't rec- | ognized either conquest. or away from war, she says. in the neutrality law. That was the second.. Now, asserts Miss Rankin, we must change the miljtary philosophy which is based onl carrying activities beyond our own borders. Abolish the fleet that is built to fight in foreign waters; build an Army whose sole function is defense and not invasion. “The road to peace isn’t a straight road. We must make a turn. The people have the will to peace. When they eges it, governments will find the way.” That's Miss Rankin's dictum years after.” (Copyright, 1937, by the North American Newspaper Alliance. Inc.) “30 - THE CHOICE OF SUCCESSFUL MEN %Mr@ Lgg/misnavana /%. PERFECTO, 2 ,‘ as¢ onDRSS, t0f !’4 18t One of my first recommendations | tried to change her attitude failed | That was one step toward peace—j Then | we torpedoed the freedom of the seas | soon as possibie, and & few days later I cabled that our goal should be 3,000,000 men. The Nation was called upon to ac- complish in the briefest possible time a task so enormous that, under con- ditions less urgent, years would have been required for its completion. It was brought home to the administra- tion and later to the people that the most extraordinary efforts would be necessary to make up for past delin- quencies if our participation in the war were not to be too late. Pirst came the draft act, somewhat delayed of enactment, and its applica- tion to millions of men as needed; then their assembly in hastily built canton- ments, followed by their organization and, more important still, training in modern warfare. These preliminaries, together wtih the procurement of the vast quantities fo equipment required and the transportation beyond the seas of men, equipment and supplies, constituted an amazing task, the ac- complishment of which called for the best talent available. In the active operations in France our combat forces conducted them- selves in a manner wihch deserves un- stinted praise. They did not fight as replacements under foreign banners or foreign leadership in battle-worn and well-nigh defeated armies, al- though certain Allied leaders insist- ently demanded it. To have used them as recruits in the Allied armies, whose customs and training were entirely different from our own, would have been wholly unwise. It was not the part of common sense so to imperil the lives and de- stroy the morale of our eager young soldiers. Instead of feeding our men into the weakened Allied armies, it was plain that an independent Amer- ican Army was needed to win the war. Therefore, we refused to parcel out our troops in the manner that some Allied leaders demanded. Instead, in the beginning our troops were sent temporarily to quiet sectors to release cers. In the first battle experience, two American divisions stopped the Ger- man advance on Paris, and several | divisions, organized into two corps, lbecnme the backbone of the counter- | attack of the second Marne. By their not only revived the drooping spirits of the Allies, but took the initia= tide of war. Swiftly folowing this advantage, they were concentrated as an inde- Mihiel, which had been held by the enemy for four years. i thereafter there began y | battle of the Meuse-Argonne—the | greatest battle in our history—in which 1,200,000 Americans were en- gaged and carried it, against the most stubborn defense, to a successful conclusion. Intensified War Danger. Again, war clouds hang over un- happy Europe. Naturally, people everywhere fear another World War. Ever-increasing armaments and fre- quent warlike gestures intensify the | danger of an explosion. Yet no one in his right mind can contemplate an- other World War without almost los- ing hope for the future of civilization The immensity of the devastation of the last war, material, moral and spiritual, ought to prove a powerful deterrent, and, in view of the more terrible consequences of another ca- tastrophe, only & madman would think of plunging his people into war. On this twentieth anniversary of tour entry into the maelstrom of war, it is more than ever our duty to strive 1413 New York Ave. the sha MOCGNIM ZANLLNOL e SANIIE NVLLANIA ¢ SEAVHS MOGNIM ANLLNOL We should seek, as we have been do=- ing earnestly for years, to settle dis- putes by amicable means, and to rid the world of the crushing armaments that fear is providing, But until this condition is established, and in order to maintain and uphold the principles of liberty, right and justice, we our= selves must be prepared and ready against the day when they again may be threatened.
