It is longer necessary to convert the

"I wrote to Washington in 1914 that
the kaiser and his lords wished to take
breakfast in Paris, later their dinner
in London and, probably, as soon as
they could, in their own way of figur
ing:, their supper in the United States,
maybe in our national capital.

and forced it onto an unwilling world,
with even poor little Serbia protesting
against it and asking to be taken be
fore the court of arbitration; but the
kaiser wanted war and he was then,
as 1 knew, massing his troons near
the borders of France.
"Every allied country despised war:
they wanted peace: their motives, fully
analyzed, were Christian and they
wished arbitration. Kussia, in her ac
tions at the outset, sought not war,
but to protect Serbia against the blood
lust of the aggressor; but she could
not stop the kaiser . and the terrible
conflict was on. Germany sought by
force to rule the world and on that
memorable day in August, 1914, she let
loose her hordes and began a record
of high crime and devastation such as

"no rainbow of promise across the sky,"
Joscpnus I fan ids, secretary of the
navy, declared in an address here today
at a meeting which marked the formal
peace, to prevent war. Th peace con
ference can accomplish much; bounda-
ris may be arransred, aocordinff to
natural divisions and racial groups;
but there must be more than this.
"Tlicro must be a court established
before which wll be brought all ques
tions of a judicial nature; a court
wiiose mandates shall be accepted; a
-ourt whuso mandates will be enforced.
We have in our country courts that de
cide judicial questions, and a force
that compels acceptance of court man
dates, and the world must have the
same.

And for tho settlement of other
questions that ariso there must also
be provision non-Judicial questions:
questions of money, of trade or religion.
i nncr direction or a league to enforce
peace, these questions may bo settled
by pressure diplomatic pressure, eco
nomic pressure; and if these fail, by the
pressure of armed force. This pressure
must be dictated by the powers who
have the obligation upon them to en-
lorcu me peace wnicn they have won
in battle.
'The people of the world now are
ready for such a step. They all know
what war means, and whether it navs.
The last four years have taught them
that. They aro open to suceestion.
and they are seeking- a way. They
realize that had thero been a league
to enforce peace they would have
avoided what they have been forced to
enaurc uurins: tne last four years.
'The next step, therefore, is educa
tion. We must ("how people that if
they will make sacrifices to avoid war,
they will not have to make the ureater
sacrifices that war brinss. Leading
citizens of each nation must by their
opening- of tho lntcrchurch Emergency lives and thvsir actions inspire the peo

"Tlio agreement on the league's con
stitution," Secretary L'anfels declared,
"was an event in the world's history,
second only to the declaration of the
shepherds of llethlehem. "We have seen

"The outlook is for a year and a half I
to two years of very good business,'
said Mr. Kilene, "to be followed by
period of diminishing business, possibly 1
running into bad times. How severe I
the reaction will be and how long it j
will continue seems impossible to j
judge.
'The big factor in determining how
good or how bad business will be after
Kurope has supplied her rush want9
will depend on tho kind of an agree- I
ment coming out of the peace confer
ence.
"From a business standpoint, a league
of nations is most important, as its I
guarantee of security will enable us I
and other nations to avoid what might I
be an unbearable taxation, due to the I
new rivalry in armaments, but there is I
also a severe economic problem in front I
of us. for the enormous cost of the war I
will first compel Kuropean nations to I
export goods at almost any price ob- I
tainable in order to pay their war I
debts, or at least, the huge interest.
"Our scale of living in this country,
and the wages we pay, will not permit
us to compete successfully on export
trade with goods sold under the war I
pressure debt of Eu-ope. Hereafter re
lief is possible if the peace conference
recognizes this condition, and should
decide to pool all the allied war debts
and our own and pay it off from funds
equally distributed in all the com
merce."

Swift & Company went into the produce business because
they saw a crying need for the kind of service they were equipped
to perform.
t
The prod nee business was in chaos. Collecting', transporta
tion, preparation and distribution was hit-or-miss, with delay,
deterioration and loss on every hand.
The farmer was at the mercy of an uncertain, localized
market. He had no way of reaching through to the people who
needed what he was raising for them. There was no premium
upon improving his stocks, for grading was lax or lacking.
The consumer had to accept pr oduce that, as a rule, had no
known responsible name behind it He had no way of knowing
how long the eggs or the butter- he was buying had been lying
around in miscellaneous lots in the back room of a country store.
Much of the poultry was not properly refrigerated before ship
ment or properly protected by refrigeration in transit.
Swift & Company's initiative brought system to this chaos.
Their organization, equipment, and experience in handling perish
able food products were already adjusted tc he task. Their
refrigerator cars, branch houses, central points, far-reaching con
nections, trained sales force, supplied just what was demanded.
Now the farmer has a daily ca market in touch with the
cation's needs with better prices. Standardization makes better
produce more profitable. More consumers are served with
better, fresher, finer foodstuffs.
Nothing suffers from this save inefficiency, which has no
claim upon public support.

GRANGES ADVOCATE FILMS
"Movies" to Keep Boys on Xew Jer
sey Farms.
arULLICA HILL, N. J. Films as a
means for "keeping- the boy on the
farm" are to be tried by some of the
granges in South Jersey, with possi
bility of a general adoption of the
scheme by the patrons of husbandry.
Home talent entertainments, which for
years have featured the "socials" of the
granges, are no longer attracting the
young people, the farmers say.
A committee has been appointed to
look into the question of motion pic
tures. Edward Gaunt, brother of the
late Senator W. IP. Gaunt, for many
years master of the New Jersey state
grange, is chairman.
Invasion of the film into the coun
try districts means breaking up of a
custom that has prevailed for genera
tions. The school boy whose turn to
recite "Curfew Shall Not Ring Tonight"
came next isn't sorry over the pros
pective change in program.
