A ¢ i way j PEACE AND BIG GUNS A correspondent who is with the big fleet commanded by Bob Evans tells an interesting story about the way they telebrated Christmas on the warships, i found a long pine board and had the carpenter paint on it: ng Other things, Chaplain Evans, of the Connecticut, Peace on Earth, Good Will Toward Men Cem e® This board.was twined with smilax and hung with white lanyards under the great guns on the quarter deck turret And all day long the Christmas picture hung there. The wife of the Spanish consul at Trinidad, who was on board with a party, said: “You Americans have such a curious sense of humor-—to put that sweet sentence so close to.those awful guns.” promptly returned “Fighting Bob,” “but that is not a sense of humor. Those guns are the greatest agency for peace that we Americans possess.” Which is alf true. Pity ‘tis, ‘tis true. “Pardon me, madam,” That the best guaranty of peace should be ample preparation for war is a tremendous reflection upon what we call modern civilization. But in national matters we must take the world as it is. Many believe—and President Roosevelt is one—that if we Shall escape a war with Japan it will be because of a showing of force. The Oriental respects a big stick Here are some facts: We wanted to bay 50 Whitchead torpedoes. Japan step- ped in, bought 1,000, costing $5,000,000, and tied up the White- head works. The only large American torpedo manufacturer has sold his year's output to Japan. The big Krupp gun works are practically subsidized by Japan. “That country, con- tinting its war taxes, has accumulated in its war chest 600, 000,000 yen--a fact concealed by a censored press. All Japan is a martial warshop, running night and day. Why' this feverish hurry? Whom will Japan fight? Not Russia. Not England, her ally. Not China, practically her own province: Who is she boycotting in business? America, Against whom do her People rage? America. : There may be no war with Japan. because of our big guns in our big ships. those guns are “the greatest agency for peace we Americans possess.” It will be because of our stern and watchful policy of wise preparation. Bob Evans is right. Today the motto of “Peace on Earth, Good Will to Men" must be hung under the big guns.
