RAUNDS, England—Arthur Hen
derson, president of the board of ed
ucation, in an address given at a dem
onstration in aid of the Northampton
hospital, recently discussed the talk
about peace that had been heard in
many countries.
“It is frequently, freely and frankly
discussed,” said Mr. Henderson, “in
this and other countries. We hear talk
of a premature peace, of a belated
peace. We have talk about the needs
of initiating peace negotiations. I
want to say, and to say with all the
emphasis of which I am capable, that
in spite of suffering, in spite of the
unparallelled sacrifices that we have
been called upon to make I, for one,
at any rate, am convinced of the utter
futility and the actual danger of this
talk of peace at the present moment.
“I would ask who are the people
who are concerning themselves most
about these peace negotiations, and
who would apparently accept a
patched- up peace of any kind? Let
me put it in a single sentence. They
are the enemies of this nation abroad
who are boasting that the Allied pow
ers and ourselves are conquered.
These people have been joined by a
few mistaken people at home, who
have done little or nothing to prevent
the Allies from being defeated.
Against such talk we must be on our
guard. I do not want to be misunder
stood. Is there a man or woman in
this audience who, under proper con
ditions, is not ready for peace? We
would not be men or women in the
face of all that has gone on, and is
I going on today in the various theatres
of war, if we were not ready for
peace at any time. But I repeat we
must be on our guard. We must see
that the peace is a permanent peace;
that it is a peace founded upon jus
tice and honor, and not upon infamy
and dishonor. We must be convinced
in our own minds, such as will pro
tect our children from a repitition of
the tragedies we are now experienc
ing.
“Moreover, let us never forget that
the highest ideals of our civilization
have been challenged. The foundations
of national and international life have
been undermined. We are brought
face to face with an issue as it was
stated in a single sentence by Profes
sor Bergson, when he said, ‘What will
S humanity be if brute force took the
l place of moral force?’ What is go
) ing to be your answer #and mine on
this question? So far as I can see,
we must set our faces like flint
against a humiliating and inglorious
compromise.
“The permanence of peace, the com
pleteness of victory, depends not only
upon our soldiers and our sailors; not
only upon the allied armies in the
field. They depend upon the stead
fast endurance of the population at
home; upon our determination and up
on our enthusiasm. Inspired by the
justice of our cause, with faith in the
triumph, the permanent and eternal
triumph of right over might, it be
hooves all of us to say that we prefer
the force of a great ideal in our na
tional life, rather than the ideal of
force. And if Germany continues un
der the influence of a cruel lust for
power, that mischievous spirit which
was at the bottom of all our troubles
two years ago, then I say that so long
as her heart and mind remain in the
same condition it is no use to talk to
me of peace.”
(Mining and Scientific Press)
Tales of fabulous deposits of na
tive copper have been brought to San
Francisco by Capt. C. T. Petersen, of
the Stefansson expedition. The ex
plorers found the Eskimo sewing their
clothes with needles made of copper.
This was on Banks island,- which is
about 550 miles due north of Great
Bear lake. This story recalls the find
ing of native copper in the Copper
mine river country by Samuel Hearne
in 1770, by others since, and finally
the expedition of Mr. George M.
Douglas, who, in 1911 and 1912, pene
trated into this remote region and
made a careful investigation, as relat
ed in his delightful book ‘Lands For
lorn.’ He and his friend, Dr. August
Sandberg, a Swedish geologist, found
copper in the amygdaloidal portion of
basaltic flows and in beds of conglom
erate, resembling those of the lake
Superior country. No rich ore was
discovered, but the samples brought
home suggested possibilities of large
scale exploitation in days to come.
Similar copper finds have been made
on Bathurst inlet, on the west side of
Hudson’s ^ay, 500 miles to the east.
Evidence accumulates to indicate a
wide distribution of copper in the Arc
tic regions of this continent, and we
do not doubt that some day a thor
ough exploration will be made in
search of ore bodies rich enough to
warrant mining on a large scale.
Among those that are making milli
ons out of the current inflation of
copper shares there should be two or
LONDON, Dec. 12.—The American
system of mother’s pensons for Brit
ish war widows and their children
may soon be raised in the house of
commons.
Judge Henry Neil, of Chicago, who
has fathered the plan through 27
American state legislatures, is telling
the British authorities about it in
London today. The Chicago judge is
pointing out to members of parlia
ment that it will not be good for the
future of the British race nor will it
be human to jam Britain’s already
numerous children’s institutions with
tots whose fathers have fallen in the
war. He is urging them to pension
the mothers like America is doing and
allow the children to grow up under
real maternal care.
Immediately after the war the
mothers will cease to reap their war
separation allowances and will have to
fall back on the small government
pension allowed to war widows. The
natural result will be an over crowd
ing of British orphan asylums.
This was the way Judge Neil out
lined the situation to the United Press
today:
“You may put a baby into a cleaner
bed than its mother can provide, give
it clean cow’s milk, tend it with the
most scientific and sanitary care and
yet it will pine for the lack of a moth
er’s coddling. It needs the warmth
of her arms, the squeezing and sort of
massage she supplies. Mother’s love
makes all the difference between virile
and weakly children.”
TOKIO, Dec. 11.—Japanese approv
al is given here today to the state
ment made in America by Baron Sa
katani that after the war Japan would
attempt to bring about a settlement
of her immigration problem with the
United States.
While the Japanese have never voic
ed the desire to break the Gentleman’s
Agreement, they feel that it is a most
unsatisfactory arrangement. With
the rise of Japan’s power and her
world commerce, the sentiment that
the American ruling is discriminatory
becomes stronger. The belief that a
revival of the question is inevitable is
expressed by the Tokio Asahi, re
garded by some persons as the lead
ing newspaper of the capital.
“Baron Sakatani only voiced the
sentiment of the Japanese nation,”
says the Asahi in speaking of the bar
on’s declaration in the United States.
“Why should the Japanese embassy
have found it necessary to deny his
his statement? That the Japanese
American embassy have found it ne
cessary to deny his statement? That
the Japanese-American problem must
be solved was a most representative
opinion for Baron Sakatani to give.
“The Gentlemen’s Agreement was
not a fundamental solution. It was
only a temporizing method. Baron
Sakatani expressed the wishes of the
Japanese nation that the two coun
tries come to a perfect understanding
of each other so the issues pending
may be solved satisfactorily to all
concerned.”
