This war is a war, as I see it, against barbarism, panoplied in all the devices for destruction of human life which science, beneficent science, can bring forth. We are re- slnflni an effort to thrust mankind back to forms of government, to po- litical creeds and methods of conquest which we had hgped had disappeared fcrever from the world. We are fight- ing agalnst a nation' which, in the fashion of centuries ago, drags the inhabitants of conquered lands into slavery; which carries off women and girls for even worse purposes; which in its mad desire to conquer mankind and trample them under foot has stopped at no wrong, has regarded no treaty. “The work that we are called upon to do when we enter this war is - to preperve the principles of human liberty, the principles of democracy and the light of modern civilization; all that we most love, all that we hold dearer than life itself. What we want most of all by this vietory which we shall help to win is to secure the world’s peage based on freedom and democracy, but by the will of free people of the earth. We shall achieve this result, and when we achieve it, we shall be able to say that we have helped to confer great blessings upon mankind, and that we have not fought in vain.” A burst of applause greeted him, /when Senator Lodge concluded. Many republican senators who de- sired to.speak, but who favored the resolution agreed not to do so in or- der to hasten its adoption. Senator La Follette is expeeted to talk about two hours. Vardaman Talks. Spectators Leave. Senator Vardaman, democrat, of Mississippi, one 'of the *wilful men” named by President Wilson, said he wished he could vote with the ma- Jority of his colleagues but that he “must follow the path of duty, as he sees it.” Some spectators got up and left the galleries as Vardaman spoke and he interjected that he did not care whether they remained or not. “The provocation is great,” he said, referring to German acts against this country. * “Each senator should re- member, however, that he may, by his vate, be signing the death warrant of hundreds of thousands of Americans, burdening generations with crushing burdens and endangering their very existence.” * Senator Vardaman sald he did not question the patriotism of those differ- ing from him, but predicted the wis- dom of their course would be de- termined by time alone. “I cannot belleve that war is for the welfare of the world of the people of this nation. I do mot condone the crimes of the German government against the people of the United States, and I wo not deny that the law has been vialgted and that we have th erigh to de war.” If the issue of war or peace should Be submitted to people who must fight the war,” he sald, “the voice of the people would be heard in thun- derous ‘tones directing the prenldent tn find some other way than war." “I am ‘not going to vote for this nnluuon. I do not believe it is essary to go to war. But I am *32 going td' delay or interfere with 1ts passage.” Once in the war, he said, he would support the president. A Oppdsition by Stone. Senator Stone ,in opposing the reso- lution said: “I fear that involving the United States in this European war will com- mit the greatest national blunder of history. I shall vote against com- mitting this mistake, to prévent which I would gladly lay down my life. “But if the constituted powers of my government—the: powers consti- tutionally authorized to speak for the ‘people on this momentous issue—shall decide for war and we go into war, then I shall cast all doubts and fore- bodings to the winds, and my eves will be blind to eveything but the flag of my country borne by American boys through the storm’ of war, and my ears will be deaf to every call except the call of my country in its hour of peril. McCumber for Postponement. Senator McCumber, republican, pro- posed to postpone recognitivn eof a state of war by a resolution to declare the future sinking of any American ship without warning or failure to take care of Americar passengers or ‘other viojation of international law, an act of s«'nr and authorize the pres- ident to use the military forces of the country to carry the war .to a suc- cessful termination. = - *I am pausing on the brink of this war,” sald he, "teo long enough to allow Germany ‘to withdraw her dec- laration of unrestricted warfare on neutral ships and neutral citizens. I am allowing her the opportunity to re- treat. Without condoning a single past act, I am chalking the dead line and leaving it to her whether she will again cross that linc. She can answer by word or act.” N Senator McCumber said a ‘“very considerable portion of the people” do not favor war. % “If this last effort of mine,” he con- cluded, *“shall fail, I shall acquiesce in the judgment of the majority and support my government in its every war need and shall never sheath the sword uritil peace honorable and Just shall be restored.” Senator Norris, republican, of Ne- braska told the senate he was “bit- terly opposed to the United States entering the war,” but did not flatly say he wbuld vote against the war resolution, Wall Street, Senator Norris asserted, is interested in profiting from the United States entering the war. He also declared a “large number -of newspapers and news agencies have been controlled and enlisted in the greatest propaganda that the world has ever knawn to manufacture sen- timent for the war.” After debate on the administration war resolution in the senate had mro- ceededj two hours, democratic leaders expressed the belief a vote would be reached early this evening and that only an unusually long speech by Senator La Follette would postpone action beyond that time. '"NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 4, LONDON PASSES HARDEST WINTE Mercury Was Low and ~Was Scarce London, April 2.—London has just passed through the hardest winter of the war. For weeks the weather has been down to freezing point, an un- usual thing here. Coupled mith this severity of weather was a scarcity of coal which caused suffering among rich and poor allke. The coal yas in the countfy but the difficulty was in getting 'it to the consumers. It is true that prices did ndt soar very high 'as compared with those in Paris and Rome but the dealers did get $15 a ton, which is a good price for London, The shortage of labor made it im- possible for dealers to get coal to many of the schools and these had to ‘be closed. To get coal, consumers had to go to the dealers or to ‘the yards where it was unloaded from the trains. It was therefore not an un- common sight to see fashionably dressed women carrying coal in baby carriages, baskets and bags. Still others loaded the coal into taxicabs. Small boys were in great demand. In the poorer sections of the met- ropolitan area women and children besieged dealers for hours. They were given limited supplies, in order that all might be served. These peo- ple unusually paid 25 cents for a small pailful. Rallway travelers usually carried a steamer rug to keep them war the journey, for the railways ceased to heat the cars. Most people faced the inconvenience bravely. They realized that the needs of the navy came first; also that if they were not getting the usual qual- ity it was because the best coal was reserved for the navy. BACHELOR SUPPER FOR “HARRY” BROWN Hundred Friends Gather at " Club and Wish Him Best of Fortune’s Smiles. Somewhere in one of Shakespeare's plays, probably in “Much Ado About Nothing,” one of 'the characters speaks a line somewhat as follows:— “When I said I would die a bachelor, I did not think I should live till I were married.” This was the pre- dominating sentiment at the fare- well bachelor dinner given last night to Harry C. Brown, past exalted ruler of the local lodge of Elks. The af- fair, held in the banquet hall of the Elks' club, was attended by one hun- dred friends of Mr. Brown, repre- senting the two branches of the male tribe,—married men and bachelors. Tributes of affection started ‘on their way at 8 o'clock when Toast- master “Ernie” ’Humphrey'in\roduced the candidate for matrimonial honors fo the assembled guests. From then ‘until the mystic hour of eleven, when all Elks toast their absent brothers, and until later in the night there were songs and storles;, and storles and songs. Judge B. F. Gaffney delivered a masterly oration in praise of about-to- be ‘“‘absent brother.” Taking the role of a crystal-gazer, Judge Gaffney te- viewed ‘the past history of Harry Brown, recalled some of his present day triumphs, and then peered into the future. “Success,” he said, “is the handmaiden of lovalty and fidel- ity. Loyal and faithful in all dutles of life, it must follow that the man who so lives must attain the high- est form of happiness.” Then came the advice to the lovi lorn. Mr. Humphrey expatiated great length on the first steps in wed- lack. Former Mayor Hallorah aug- mented the symposium and -said a married man who deserts the family hearth night after 'night wins a “Peace Without Victory.” It was contended by Otis O. Butler that a married man with bachelor ideas is about the highest form of human life, Thus wended the discussion upon its lengthy way, until Postmaster De- laney ended the argument. One of the treats of the evening was furnished by Jahn'Foley, who sang a séntimental ballad, “The Gan- der and the Goose.” Fred Beloin contributed his part of the entertain- ment with his own original version of “Sweet Adeline.” | Jimmy Byett, one of the fastest sprinters in the local lodge of Elks, was called upon and sang, “oGod-bye Bachelor Days.” Those who have seen him run and have heard him sing are at a loss to know in which art he excels. “The Face on the Barroom Floor,” a recl- tation by James Naughton, brought tears to many eyes, as did “You're as Welcame as the Flowers in May,” sung by M. T. White. The customary 11 o'clock toast was recited by Past Exalted Ruler “Billy” Beers, who also brought the greet- ings of Bristol Lodge to the guest of the evening. Exalted Ruler Wells Foster recited “Your Flag and My Flag,” followed by a singing of the “Star Spangled Banner” by the entire assemblage. Others wha took part in the entertainment were James Finnegan, ‘William G. Muller, Timothy W. O'Brien, John Buckley, George Denby, Stephen Mordecai and Jack Hollywood. Elks’ STORES TO CLOSE. The retail stores connected with the Chamber of Commerce will close at 12:30 o’clock Good Friday for the remainder of the day. The plan in vogue other years of keeping open the night before will be abolished this year. Financial FLUGTUATIONS MARK DAY ON THE STREET Prices Unsteady With Steels Showmg Only Steadiness V\l.|l Street.—A general shad)nx of prices of stocks, in no important in- stance than fractional, prevailed dur- ing today’s early dealings. With the exception of U, 8. Steel, in which the first transaction consisted' of 8,000 shares at an extreme recession of a quarter of a point, offerings were ex- tremely light, with the usual neglect of rails. Pressure was most per- ‘sistent in metals, shippings and minor industrials. Firmer tendencies de- veloped in the later trading. Foremost munitiond and equip- ments, notably Bethlehem Steel, Crucible Steei and United States led the active to -higher prices in the first hour with Marine preferred and such representative issues as Union Pacific. These gains were altogether lost in the second hour, prices falling back again in renewed pressure against motors, industrial alcohol, hide and leather preferred and Ameri- can Woolen. Selling became mor$ urgent at mid-day, prominent stocks then showing overnight losses of 1 ta 3 points. Bonds were irregular. The reaction of the noon hour was checked by liberal buying of the ship- ping group at advances of 1 to 2 1-2 points, Rallies elsewhere were limited to minar fractions, indus- trials and metals manifesting general restraint.

London, April 4. —Although several of the largest paper mills in England have been forced to shut down be- cause the government stopped the im- portation of pulpwood, many others have managed to keep going by utilizing grass which they obtain from Scotland, the Fenlands and In- dia. Printing paper and notepaper is befng made from grass mited with othér materials. The cheapest fibre is obtained from rags which are no longer exported. Rag cuttings are now worth $140 a ton, which is still below the cost of wood pulp, now sell- ing for $150 a ton. It was $40 a ‘ton before the war.
