BELLICOSE BILLY SUNDAY.
"Colonel William A. Sunday. ” How does that, sound? If America is unfortunate enough to have war the title will' be a reality. For Billy Sunday said the other day: "If any of th r? nations across the sea ‘started anything, ’ he wanted to be a colonel in the army.” "I’m not a Democrat, but I’m for President Wilson in lbs preparedness policy, ’ ’ he said. "We must fight as well as pray. We must be militant as well as persuasive. I believe in arbitration, but sometimes a strike is the only way to settle thing:-:. War gave us the United States. .War freed the slaves. War broke the handcuffs Spain put on Cuba. If it hadn’t been for war Mexico might own Texas, New Mexico, Nevada, and California. If any of the European nations don’t think the American people believe in the Monroe Doctrine, let them start something* and if something starts I want to be a colonel."
