his indomitable will, nor because he
is handsome. It is dedicated to Cal-

To the Editor:
The winning plan in the $100,000
Bok Peace Plan contest contains noth-
ing to insure world peace and there-
fore nothing to recommend it to the
American people.
What part of the plan will prevent B O T -H
Germany or any other country from
causing a world war as was done in
1914? Almost the same machinery
existed then as the present Peace plan

I love the smell of ether
And of chloroform as well,

Altho it smells bike-tut-tut.

And cut up birds and mice,
But when I cut up humans

I love to chop off fingers
And see what makes 'em go,
Or make incisions with my knife
And' see the red blood flow.

have been confined to
power to enforce its decisions was al-
so brought into being.
Now plan 1469 proposes that the
League reject all the articles that
allow the. court to enforce its dec-
sions. -There is no court in existence
that could function without power to
enforce its decisions and yet this plan'
proposes that the world reject a court
with power and set up on whose de-
cisions may be accepted or not by the
parties concerned.
Just such a court existed in 1914
and it failed 3to prevent war. Why
would one work now?
This court is under the modified
League the only League agency that
could prevent war and it could not
deter any nation from violating its
decisions.
Therefore, because this peace plan
proposes going back to methods which,
have been tried before and failed, andj
because;it does not advwnce any other
meansfor insuring world peace, it
should ; be rejected.

, FIRST STEP TOWARD REAL
PEACE
To the Editor:
Speaking as one of the many into
whose souls were burnt forever the
hope~s and the last words and wishes,
of those comrades and friends who
-were about to die, gallantly, on the
battlefIds of France, permit me to
say thatafter a preliminary study of l
the wining plan, I find myself in en-
tire accord with it.
Such, if I may say so, was not the
case with the peace treaties.
In voting my approval of this plan
I am performing a simple duty, name-
ly, fulfilling the promises I gave to
these departed fighters, persogal
friends of mine, when they bade me,
in their last hours of earthly exist-I
ence, not to neglect the first real op-!
portunity to raise a hand in favor ofI
real peace, as opposed to a "fake";
peace, such as the present one is, or
to a visionary peace, impossible of
early fulfillment.
It is with pleasure that I perform
this preliminary duty.!
