FORD WILL GIVE 45 SECRET AWAY URGES PEACE BY - FORGE OF ARMS President of Harvafd Believes in Vigorous Methods New Haven, April 26.—Pres. Ar- thur T. Hadley of Yale University has received a communication from Dr. A. Lawrence Lowell, president of Har- vard university urging him to attend the first annual assemblage of the | League to Enforce Peace, which will | be held in Washington, D. C., on May 26 and 27. Ex-President Taft is pres- ident of the league. Dr. Lowell is chairman of the execuitve committee. “If, however,” Dr. Lowell writes, “you should be unable to attend the meeting, may we ask you to appoint other delegates to represent your in- stitution, either from the faculty or from the board of trustees. We con- celve the program of the League to Enforce Peace to be so fundamental to business, industrial and social fu- | ture of our country, and to the part it must hereafter play in international affairs, that we consider it most desir- | able that leaders of thought in every community, and especially in the high- er institutions of learning shall be ful- ly informed regarding the movement.” It was Dr. Lowell, who with ex- President Taft and others inaugurated the league-to-enforce-peace move- ment at the Independence hall meet- ing last June, and it is understood that it was Harvard’'s president who orig- inated the proposal that “the joint armed forces of a league of nations be used against any signatory refusing to | keep an agreement to submit a dis- pute to a court of arbitration or coun- cil of conciliation before beginning hostilities or declaring war. This pro- posal is the main feature of the league's program. With Dr. Lowell's letter was en- closed a pamphlet specially written by him for the league, some of the more striking paragraphs of which follow: “The resolutions adopted at the meeting in Philadelphia in favor of a League to Enforce Peace are so con- cise that a proper regard for public opinion requires those who are re- sponsible for them to explain and jus- tify each proposition set forth. But before trying to do so it is well to Te- move a misapprehension stating that the plan is not directed at stopping the present war. For any combination of neutral states to attempt to enforce peace upon both groups of belliger- ents would be an absurdity. The only | way to intervene would obviously be to join one side or the other, and this| might result in lengthening instead of shortening the war. There is littlé use in irving to stop a conflict after What Our Customers Say :—“The more ‘Aunt Delia’s’ Bread we eat, the better we like it’”’—Your dealer sells it; try a loaf today.

I, April 26—Any | further news about Henry Ford's _ plan to buy the secret of Prof. Louis Enricht’s new substitute for gasolene must come from Mr. Ford, said the inventor at his home here. The ventor characterized as a lie statement attributed to him by an afternoon newspaper to the effect that he had sold his formula and had received a plethoric check in ex- change. “You'll have to see Mr. Ford” was the answer Prof. Enricht made when in- t he asked what developments there wero | In the negotiations. “I am entirely in his hands. If Mr. Ford carries out his intentions, as he has said he will everything will be all right. T will tell > you this much: Mr. Ford's motives in this whole matter are entirely mercenary. If he were to buy my formula tomorrow it would be given | out broadcast to all the people, and T'm with him on that.” “When do you expect to see Ford again/ and will .~ In Detroit?” N “Ask Mr. Ford,” the professor re- plied. “He asked me explicitly to give no more information to news- Mr. it be here or papers and to refer all reporters to him.” “There was a story printed you had sold the secret and showing a check.” that wero “That's a lie,” he snapped,” nettled | out of his usual m speech. i spent the whole day yesterday in the Ford plant at Long Island BaW nobody in this town nor did 1 ever say such a thing.’ Lie No. 2. The inventor of the fluid that is in- tended to make gasolene nothing but e tradition in the motor world also wresented the claims of his Elmira ri- val, E. D. Lewis, who says he achieved the same purpose by the use of sulphuric acid. “That’s a lie too,” he said. chemist knows you can't get such result with sulphuric acid the man doesn’t know what h talk- Ing about anyhow, because he says sulphuric acid costs 2 cents an ounce when any one knows that the pric Is 3 cents a pound. Prof. Enrich had his new car out yesterday and he was running it with gasolene. This was not because substitute had fallen down, but because he had abandoned use pending negotiations. “Any ite “I'm afraid some one will steal it | L0n me.” he said, “and analyze it. T know that I am being shadowed and | attempts have been made to steal my secret. So I'm not making any more fluid and I'm using gasolene in my car.” His substitute can be made in var- lous forms, the professor added, in explaining how some called it a fluid and some a powder. “I can make it in any form—fluid, power, crystal or tablet,” he said. #The only reason I used in liquid form was.for convenience in measur- Ing it for small amounts.” | and our distance from Europe, would | preserve un- | | tury City.| Y| | during the past year. has | any | And | his | he said, | of diminishing the cases where inter-| national .dissentions shall hereafter | lead to fighting; and it is against the| outbreak of: future wars that the pro- posed League to Enforce Peace is ex- clusively afmed. “But why should the United States join a league to maintain peace over the world? Simply because it is for the interest of every country to pre- vent war anywhere and also duty of every great country to help in doing £0 by all reasonable means. The pres- ent conflict has shown that the trade, the manifold interests, nay more, the safety of citizens, of neutral states are profoundly affected by war on a large scale; that neutral rights are inevit- ably imperiled, if not actually violat- ed; and that there is always grave danger of being drawn into the whirl- pool. It has been our tradition that the rectitude of our intentions, the| absence with us of foreign ambitions, us from complications aris- ing there. But with the best inten- tions we were at last drawn into the wars of Napoleon, and for all practi- cal purposes we are much closer to Europe than we were then, while Eu- ropean nations have extended their ambitions more and more generally over the whole face of the earth. The Atlantic takes less than a quarter of the time to cross than it did a cen- ago, and a few years hence it may be easy to drop incendiary bombs rom the sky on New York in forty- eight hours, or for submarines in a| week or ten days to destroy our coastwise shipping and shell our sea- board towns. It would be satisfac- tory to have some sccurity for the maintenance of peace, or at least against the danger of a sudden attack. So much for our interest in the pre- | servation of peace. Our duty is, per- haps, no less clear. The meaning of war has been brought vividly before us The acts it ju tifies would, if done by the individual members of a community to one an-) other, be properly regarded as proof of a relapse into utter barbarism. Can or can any civilized nation, say| \ch things are none of our af- fairs long as we do not ourselves suffer from them? Civilization is a common product of enlightened peo- ples, and to set it backward in any progressive country impairs it every | where. If a combination of nations) would prevent the horrors of war, can we reduce the chance of success by refusing to join it, even at some ex- > in maintaining an appropriate | military force, and at some risk to ourselves, if these be not unduly great? Both the military force and the risk would, it is believed, be de- cidedly less than would be entailed by a proper provision for the defence of | the country if no such league existed. But that depends, of course, UpON what the proposed league would be and what it is expected to do.” “Most people who have thought long upon the problem of maintaining peace over the earth have come to the conclusion that the great difficulty lies in finding some sanction, that is some effective means of enforcing the obli- gations assumed—in this case the ob- ligation not to take up arms before submitting the question in dispute to a we, that pen: 73 & 75 Washington St., Middletown, Ct. tribunal or council. The vital point, therefore, in the plan for a league adopted at Philadelphia is the meth- od of enforcing peace. The third ar- ticle provides that: “The signatory powers shall joint- ly use forthwith both their economic and military forces against any one of their number that goes to war, or commits acts of hostility, against an- other of the signatories before any question arising shall be submitted as provided in the foregoing. “No sanction can have the effect desired unless it is strong enough to deter those who are tempted to disre- gard it; and in this case there is no use in providing for milder sanctions to be followed by others more severe in case the first prove insufficient, be- cause wars now-a-days come suddenly and when war has once begun harm is done and practically cannot be undone. Punishment as a deter- rent from private crime in expressly prescribed by law in order that it may be certain. provide that when a man intends to commit murder the government shall threaten him with three months’ im- prisonment, and if this is not effective it shall make a more severe threat up to capital punishment if necessary; nor does it provide that the public au- thorities shall consult about penalty necessary to deter the man from his purpose. Of course, the analogy be- tween the security for order within a state and the preservation of interna- tional peace is imperfect, and may be ! misleading, but there are points of re- semblance, valuable for illustration, of which this is one. “The consequences of going to war without first submitting the question in dispute to an international tribunal or council ought to be as certain to follow as possible, and ought to be such that no nation will brave them. They must not be discretionary, or left for future determination, and there- fore a conference of nations to decide what steps shall be taken is objection- able. Suc ha conference, like the pro- verblal council of war, will never fight, and it is very likely not to do anything in time to be effective. Nor will any sanction of an economic na- ture alone be as certain to be put in- to full operation as an agreement to use military force, because the resis- tance of the interests affected will be at least as great against an economic boycott as against war, and they will be constantly striving to break it down, whereas war once declared si- lences opposition—a fact which any nation that thought of defying league would not fail to note. Morcover a prospect of immediate universal war is the one thing would be sure to deter any country, however powerful or self-sustaining, from beginning hostilities with neighbor. It is almost inconceivable that any nation would attack another if convinced that to do so would in- volve war with all the leading powers of the world. If, therefore, such a league as s proposed, were formed by the | The criminal law does not | the that | its | | 1 a sufficient number of great countries | | it is in the highest degree improbable that the agreement to take up arms would ever need to be put into exes cution: for although there may be is- sues on which a nation would rather perish than yield, there are none on which it would not prefer a publ hearing before fighting its adversar: to fighting a whole array of powerful states without such a hearing. Most plans for the maintenance of | peace among nations start with the idea of compelling the arbitration of disputes. This one starts from a dif- ferent standpoint, that of preventing sudden war by force. It is the meth- od pursued in the case of individuals within a community. The state does not compel a man to bring suit for an | injury if he does not want to do so. It merely tells him that he must not resort to force, must not take redr into his own hands, on pain ot punish- ment by the whole force of the com- munity. So this plan does not tell a nation that it must submit dispute: arbitration and abide by the re: but that it must not on pain of repr. sion by all he members of the league go to war before the matter has been submitted to an international tribunal or council.” DAUGHTERS OF ’1 Washington, April 26—Election ot high officers other than president- general was the principal busin fore today’s session of the annual convention of the United Daughters of 1812.
