Hadley of Yale, the popu- lar lecture series, started some five or six weeks ago, was brought to a suc- cessful close in Slater hall on Monday evening, before a sized audience, The subject of itary education is oné of nmationsl and even world-wide interest and im at the pres- ent time, having sprung into the fore; ground in the past year and a half through the Furopean war which has converted the plains, valleys and mountains of Eurcpe into a Bi- gantic battlefield, stained with the Iife blood of hundreds of thousands of sol- diers. The Hague conference, regard- ed a short while ago as a lkely means of ‘almost entirely mnuu war be- tween the great na roved worth- 1osa In the crisis and. this, with other developments, has caused the ' true American to realize the danger which Bis oountey te facing in her unpre- pared mil state. According to President Hadley's opinfon it is doubtful whether an in- crease in our army and navy, even three-fold, will solve the problem and so In_ the' light of the history of the last fifty years President Hadley ad- Vocates intelligent tion for cer- tain demands of well ordered peace as the means of intelligent preparation against the possible dangers of war. President Hadley's Address. As President Hadley appeared on the platform, he was greeted with a hearty outburst of applause. Prof. H. A. Tirrell, principal of the N. F. A. introdaced ~ President Hadley, who spoke in part as follows One of the most disturbing effects of the European war' to the intelligent American citizen is that it has upset his political philosophy. I do not mean that we have changed our theory of international morals. But we have come to the conclusion that the data from which we have been reasoning in the past are quite inadequate and that there are m% other things which we need to take into account; very much as the boy who has been instructed in peace principles in his home finds when he first goes to boarding school that there are new facts to face which, without changing his moral sentiments, practically mod- ify the application of the doctrine of non-resistance. Two years ago most of us believed that our American policy could be based on the expectation of per- manent peace between us and our civilized neighbors. Some of us re- garded the Hague conference as like- Iy to develop into a means of almost entirely preventing wau Nearly all of us belleved that international law had made such progress that the treaty rights of neutrals would be re- spected, and that war itself would be conducted with a humane regard for the interests of non-combatants: and, wholly apart from the safeguards pro- vided by international law, that in any event America was so far remote from Europe onthe one side or from Asia on the other that our navy could keep us “secure’ from -attack until ‘we had bad time to prepare defenses against any emergency. that might unexpected- ly arise. But in -the course of the last year and a half we have seen that the macliinery provided by the Hague conference, was worthless in a crisis of national feeling_ that treaties were not ‘held sacred when they conflicted with Delligerent interests: that war in the twentieth century was conduct- ed with almost savage disregard of the welfare of non-combatants; and that in the face of modern scientific progress the ocean furnished no such safeguard to ourselves as we had fond- ly assumed. ? Seaboard Recognizes Need. In view of these facts nearly every- one within reach of the Atlantic sea- board is recognizing the need of i creased means of national defense. Many of those who two years ago op- posed an increase of our standing army and navy now recognize this as a necessary means of self-protection. But it is doubtful whether an increase of our standing army and navy, how- ever desirable in itself, will solve the problem. Tt would make us safe against sudden onslaught for the mo- ment, when the nations that are occu- pied in war are so evenly matched that a slight additional force on one side or the other might turn the scale against them. It would not save us after the war is over. History gives no warrant for the belief that at the close of the present war the bellig- erent nations will be so tired of fight- ing or so exhausted with fighting that they will be unwilling to wage an- other war for many yvears to come. After this war is over we are in dan- ger of being attacked by any nation whom we have offended. Against such an attack an increased army and navy would be of little use unless it was intelligently directed. The Silver Lining. The history of France in 1870 shows how a well trained standing army of moderate size can have all its opera- tions paralyzed if its movements are soverned by politicians or by a people who know little of military conditions. We need more than an army. We need public understanding of the use and management of an army and if we gain this I believe we shail also gain public understanding of -the use and management of a government which will make the lesson worth much more than its cost. This, as I look at it, is the silver lining to the war cloud which oppresses us. = A hundred years ago our nation was organized by familles. Many things in the way of production, education, and government which are now done by the public were then dome at home. It has become conventional to sey that the state has taken the place of the family. In one sense it has done so. It gives us great many things which formerly we expected to get from our own homes. But in an- other sense it has not done so. For we have not learned, as part of our public morals, to give it the same kind of service that we rendered our fam- :uaa. 'l'hel essence of the ;-nlly n:x‘:; lation was its reciproeity. Your to claim everything which the, home eould offer was founded upon the ex- pectation that you would give the home everything you could. As long as socialism Fopsvints an effort on the part of different groups and classes to get everything they could out of the state and me us little as possible, the socialistic stat has no resemblance to the order- Iy family. It is at best a famfly of spoiled children Germany’s Socialism. 7/ Only one nation appears to have avoided this misconception of social- ism, and that is Germany. The cause for this is somewhat curious. When Napoleon in 1807 tried to reduce Prus: sia’ to a state of powerlessness he as one of t.:: itions of peace that the army should never ex- ceed a certain very small figure. In order to have a sufficient number of trained soldiers in reserve to meet an emergency, the = Prussian statesmen wara blized to adont & Blan of shart. sibly couid be. tic family. a family in its mental attitude than the English natior, for instance, pos- Germany’s New Gospel. The thing that has made Germany strong in this present war is just this coherent attitude as a large socialis- And the thing that has made Germany dangerous is the pres- ent war is the belief that she has a new political gospo. to_preach to the World—a gospel so important that it aliows her to override treaties and even to disregard the dictates of com. mon humanity as being of small im. portance in comparison with the new gospel which she has to preach. And it is a noteworthy fact that those nations which have shown the best powers of resistance in propor- tion o their resources have been the ones where the German view of th military duty of the citizen has been longest accepied. It is this, for in- stance, which Las made:a peaceably demccracy like Switzerland able to protect itself and maintain itself with a power out of proportion either to “he numbers or the wealth of its pop- ulation. This is not due simply to the armed force, but to the national ethics and national coherence that go with the system. Need of Preparedness. The demand for some sort of mili- tary education therefore rests, not simply on the need of national pre- paredness in the military sense, but on the need f national preparedness in the political and moral sense. The arguments for it lie not on one line only but on many. ‘We need it on the purely military ground .of provid- ing a partially trained resérve to sup- port our regular army and navy in case of attack and to fill gaps Ja its ranks. We need it as a supplement to our educational system, in order to provide moral as well as intellect- ual training—the spirit of readiness for disagreeable duty, which William James so strengly emphasizes in his “Maoral Equivalent of War.” We need it most of all as a necessary safe- guard for our political institutio as an object lesson in the reciprocity of rights and duties, without which politics _degenerates into a scramble for office and privilege in which ad- miniatrative efficiency is sacrificed. In the light of the history of the last fifty years, intelligent provision against the possible dangers of war means in- telligent _ prepazation. for. the eertain demands of well ordered peace. Questions and Answers. At the close of his address Presi- dent Hadies iuviled cuestions from the audience on any matter that he had not miade <lear and several tock advaniage cf tie opportunity. One of the questiors asked was as to what practical measuree should be taken to begin ‘he proposed military educatien. President Iladley said one of the most practical methods would be to have our colleges, and high schaols give cawmp training as part of the school course. 1t a considerable number, say one quarter of our influential men had camp training of this mature it would be but a step further to ac- quire a practical military education. That the audience was to a large extent in sympathy with the speaker was shown by the statement of one of our prominert citizens who said, “I think military drill is more essen- tial than any study except arithmetic.” Another question which was satis- factorily answered by President Had- ley-related to the difference between the German system of militury educa- tion and the systems of the other con- tinental powers.

SUDDEN DEATH OF ROWLAND GREENE Had Stroke of Apoplexy at Stables on Asylum Street. Rowland Greene, who is about years old and for many years has been a farm hand in this section and worked as a hostler also, was strick- en with a stroke of apoplexy about 6 o'clock on Monday evening at the Manwaring stables on Asylum street and died a few hours later at the Backus hospital, to which he had been taken. He never regained conscious- ness. Mr. Greene had driven into the stable with a load of hay, which he had been into the country to get dur- ing the afternoon. He got down from the load and was ahout to bed down the horses when he was stricken. His condition .was noticea as he was seen clinging motionless to a post of one of the stalls. He soon became speech- less and Dr. H. E. Higgins was called. The stricken man was removed as soon as possible in the automobile am- bulance to the Baekus hospital, but he did not recover. The body was re- moverd by Undertuker Gager to his morgue and an effort will be made to locate relatives of Mr. Greene. Many years ago he worked at the AGAINST POTTER ESTATES.

MANY WORKERS APPLY AT HOPKINS & ALLEN'S But Concern Has Not the Special Rifle Machinery and Tools Yet. ‘Applications for positions to work continue to pour into the Hopkins & Allen Arms company, said President J. A. McGregor on Monday evening, but at the present time it is too soon to take on any new men and it will not be until after the first of the year probably that any considerable addition can be made to the number of employes. The company is rushing things as fast as possible and has its orders all out for the tools and machinery that are needed to do the work on its big rifle_ contract, but until the tools and machinery are here, actual work on rifles cannot be taken up. There are numberless plants all over the east that are at work on the tools and ma- chinery and these are coming just as fast as possible, but the Hopkins & Allen concern is in no different con- dition, he pointed out. than the am- munition factories in Bridgeport, which are also engaged in this prelim- inary work and are not taking on new help any faster than is being done here. About 40,000 gun stocks have been received, but there can be no work done on these as yet for they are to dried and the kilns are not t, but are coming along as fast as possible. It will not be tool makers that the concern will put to work for they d not attemnt to undertake the making of their own tools now, but it will be rifie makers. At present all the old help are being held and are befns siven sama kind of employment to’ keep them: here so that they will be on-hand when the plant gets un- der way on the rifies.
