Therefore, the biggest question which will come up in the next session of congress, that of increasing the army and navy, should be put up to YOU first of all. YOU, Mr. Man, will have to shoulder the gun and man the fighting ship in the event of war— Therefore, it is only right that your servants in should know what you, THEIR BOSS, thinks about it.

A’ OBSERVANT student of humanity writes ‘ “You will hear movements for the suppression of traffic less in the next five years about in women’s bodies and souls, less about the abolition of the city slum, less about more humane methods of dealing with prisoners being pun ‘ished for crime, less about the improvement of industrial re- lations.” Why? Because, due to the war and its business oppor- tunities, we are about to “elevate again the god of material gain and lose sight of the rank abuses that will flourish while we are grasping.” In proof the fact is cited that, following every great war, greed springs into the field to reap the harvests of reconstruc headway It must be confessed that history supports this view But are you satisfied to have things go that way this time; do you want good causes to halt so that no energy may be diverted from the pursuit of gain? The decision doesn’t rest with history, remember; it rests in this instance WITH YOU. To Prevent Wars 66THE POWER of ultimatum must be taken out of the hands of a few men, if wars are to cease,” says Dr David Starr Jordan A very large contract, Doctor, since it means the aboli- tion of monarchies. The power to declare war has always heen the most precious prerogative of monarchs, and only in democracies does the ultimatum lie with the people. And democracies are sometimes fooled E. E.

Of course, it may not necessarily follow that increasing the army and navy means war—some folks say it spells peace. However, different people have different opinions on that subject. But the fact stands out prominently that YOU and every other living human being in these United States are vitally concerned about the United States army and navy.

STRATION and to convince yourself—as we have done—that the apparently impossible achtevement of assembling a world-beater, low-priced car in this city, on a profitable commercial basis. has been made possible by the conception and pco- duction of the ELBERT, Model A, which sells for 5.00, F.
