I TTNTQTTENESS OP WAR. J "Do you believe in war, father?"' "No, my son. Emphatically no. Nobody believes in war. War is too destructive and too horrible for anybody to believe in." "Then why aren't there ways tot prevent it!" "There are, my son. As a matter of fact, we have a number of very excellent contrivances which are cleverly designed to prevent war. For instance, there are the diplomats, who are supposed to be extraordinarily adept at: talking things over and coming to amicable understandings." "But they don't succeed, father? * r "No; and so we have to back them. up with mighty armaments whfali will make nations afraid of each other and prevent war." "But they don't succeed, father." "No; and accordingly wo maketreaties between nations. These treaties solemnly pDedge undy'ng friendship and provide for an arbitration e£ all issues without resort to triggi-r----pulling.'' "But they don't succeed in preventing war, father." "No, my son, and that's why we have churches and a religion which emphatically teaches the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood ■ f man, and which loudly proclaims peace on e»Tt!u goodwill toward-men." "But men go to war just the same, father.'' "That is true, my son, mid that's why we have to supplement our religion with secular peace societies which analyse the disadvantages :£ war from every possible standpoint." "But all these wonderful things put together seem to.be ineffective in staving off war, father. Why ia.it?" "I can't tell you, my son unless T* is that war is the one field of human activity in which theory v.r.d practice are, entitrely independent of each other. '' —Ellis O. Jones.
