Statement Regarded as Open- ing Gun in Gengress War on National Preparedness. WASHINGTON, Nov, 5.—William mally opened the battle on natéonal preparedness in a| atatement assailing the position taken by President Wilson in his Manhat tan Club spesoh at New York last] night. “A departure from our traditions, @ reversal of our mational policy, a menace to ollr peace and safety and ja challenge to the spirit of Christian. ity, which teaches us to influence oth. jor by example rather than by excit- ing fear,’ is Mr, Bryan's view of Wil- son's national defense plans. Bryan criticised the President for making public his policy at a club composed of men hé termed mammon worshippers. The former Secretary's statement, which reiterates views he has pre- viously expressed on the subject of preparedness for war, was regarded as the firet shot tn the fight which Administration leaders expect in Con- gress against adoption of the plan, In Ns statement Mr, Bryan said: “L have read tho President's speech at New York with sorrow and Con. | cern, He ts doing what eves to be his duty, it my duty to dissent We canno criticise hia motives, as he has given his views with clearness and empha- | sis, but those who differ with him are under a like obligation to express themselves with equal clearness, Mr. Bryan declared that the Presi but I dent will not assume “that he is m deeply interested in the welfare of | his country than the millions who| elected him to be, thelr spokesman, “And if he ts giving volce to opinion of countrymen," Bryan continued, “ho is anxious to have them as frank with bim as he has been with them—h.w otherwise can he know whether he represents or mis- represents their views? “He has announced a policy which haa never before been adopted in this country and never indorsed by any party in the country, and he has no| way of knowing, until he hears from | the people, whether he has correctly | interpreted the will of the public { “His appeal is not to any party, but, as be says, to men of ‘all shades of opinion.” He asks for the hearty sup port of the country, meaning, of course, that he wants the support, provided the people favor the policy which he has outlined, He could not of course, ask them to support a policy which they did not indorse, es. | pecially if they considered the policy dangerous to the country,’ “The plan which he proposes 1s not only @ departure from our traditions, but a reversal of our national policy, It tg not only a menace to our peace and safety but a challenge to the spirit of Christianity whicch teaches for the time being the (Continued on Eleventh Pago.) —_——— $12 Men’s O’coats&Suits, $5.95 THE "HUB" Clothing Corner, Broad- wi sat!

This view is borne out by the fact that the monarch has appointed as his alde-de-camp Gen. Yanakitsa, War Minister in the Zaimis Cabinet, whose defiance of ex-Premier Venizelos’s pro-war fob lowers in Parliament Thursday caunedt the overthrow of the Grecian Gov- ernment. When Premier Zaimis and his peace Ministers resigned yesterday ft was generally assumed that ex-Premler Venizelos, the war party leader, would return to office. To-lay the entire press and everybody in political circles had reached the conclusion that His Majesty would dissolve Par- liament instead of making Venizelos Premier again, Hints to this effect were said to have been given by persons close to the King. This may bring about a revolution against the King, led by Venizelos.
