L. Bullen and which appeared In your communications column a few days ago represents the vinw of a sizable part of society. But they apply most of Mr. Bullen's laudations to competition rather than to war. Competition is a prettier name than war although the effects are the same extermination. Just how ridiculous this school Is becomes at once clear when the con testants are equal in ferocity and in all other ways. The result is mutual annihilation! Mr. Bullen's praises then amount to the glorification of being wiped outl Nobody would be left to "glorify natural law." None left to "exalt the strong and con demn the weak" and end in "deca' dency": nor make "men out of women." What Mr. Bullen la trying to ex press, perhaps, is that the dynamic or active state la superior to the static state of Boclety. He confuses the state of peace with that of static. But peace and static are not necessarily the same. Nor is dynamics and progress identical. War. of course, is dynamical, but la more retrogressive than progressive in the vast majority of cases. Nations have progressed in spite of wars, not be cause of them. Wars in the lost analysis are points of contact be tween conflicting forces tending to synthesize. They are always resorted to as an "Instrument of national policy" only In societies of low social intelligence. They are a calamity for both sides in the vast majority of cases Invariably so in complex so cieties. The law is: Peace Is necessary for social continuity in direct proportion to society's complexity. Mr. Bullen thinks that war ts nat uraland so It Is. So is death! War la the natural state of most forms of life that do not think. Including man and societies. But out of the struggle of predatory animals Is evolved & biped with a brain. This has implanted In man by nature. Its role. It seems is to produce economy In the struggle of blind nature for the "purpose" of raising matter and force from the simpler to the more complex to make na ture less blind to make more hits and leas ml uses. Mr. Bullen and his numerous school would have man prostitute his role in the "natural scheme" defeat nature's "objective" and act as blind ly as the female spider which eats her male for a wedding breakfast. R. HEONER October 17 Oolrt Hill ordinance is adopted, he stated, the club would conduct an educational campaign to acquaint bicycle riders with the alms and purposes of the supervision. He emphasized tht the education of youthful bicycle riders would be of permanent value In training them as potential drivers of motorcars. On motion of M. N. Hogan, the council adopted ft vote of thanks and appreciation for the club's coopera tion and offer of assistance. City Attorney Prank P. Parrell In formed the council that Superin tendent Fred W, Scheffel's depart ment had prepared a list of 330 prop erties on which sidewalks were in need of repair. He asserted that lit tle response had been received to no tices sent to the property owners asking that the sidewalk defects be repaired. Manv complants of defective side walks have been received In recent months, Mr. Farrelt stated, and he stressed that tn ft few Instances dam age suits against the city had result ed from injuries alleged to have been sustained In falls caused by broken walks. The city attorney emphasized that property owners are liable for any damage or Injury caused by defective sidewalks. "The city has authority to repair the sidewalks and assess the property owners," Mr. Parrell pointed out. "We do not want to follow this procedure but there Is no other course to pur sue if the property owner refuses to repair the sidewalks himself." The council directed Mr. Farrell to institute the required procedure to have the defective sidewalks repaired. Lot Is Sold. On the recommendation of George T. Prey for the land appraisal com mittee, the council approved sale of a lot on the west side of Ashland ave nue between Main and Smith streets to Kermtt C. Nelsen. It Is under stood Mr. Nelsen plans to build ft residence thereon Immediately. Upon the advice of the planning commission the council amended an ordinance pertaining to the erection of fences, purpose of the amendment being to prohibit fences that would Infringe upon the rights of neigh bors. Mr. Hogan Informed the council that up to September 30, a total of se. 182.50 had been received from license and permit fees of all kinds. A letter from the Girl Scouts thank ed the council for the flowers and generally beautiful appearance of the playground on Bear creek off East Main street.
