Blackstone 2591.SATURDAY, DECEMBER 11, 1915....,� A REPLY TO A p' ACIFIST.The following letter was receivedyesterday, and it is herewith pub­lished in order that The Maroon maymake clear its attitude toward thequestion of military preparedness:To the Editor:-In the hope that you may findspace for it, I am enclosing a copyof the program outlined by theWome'n's Peace party. You havetaken so sympathetic a view withreference to the present controversyin the clothing industry, urging thatreason and justice should be the basisof the sett1emnt there, rather thanthe economic force of the employersand the starvation of the workers,that I feel sure you will sympathizewith those who urge the resort to leg­isbtive action and international or­ganization. rather than a falling backupon military strength as the basis ofour leadership in the community ofnations.Sophronisba P. Breekinridge.We take this opportunity to thankMiss Breckinridge for her. approvalof our treatment of the garmentworkers' strike, and we regret thatit is she whom we must refuse socourteous a' request. The Marooncannot, however, conscientiously lendits support to so nearsighted a policyas the pacifists offer, when facts haveshown that the millenium has not yetarrived. As long as commercial andindustrial rivalry exist, and as longas necessity is the law by whichnations abide, preparedness is the onesolution to national security.It is not apropos to discuss herethe insufficiency of our coastal de­fense, the diminutive size of ourstanding army, and the acknowledgedinadequacy of the United States navy.It need only be stated that the Presi­dent and the administration have seenfit to map out a program of aug­mented defense, that it is quintes­sential that our rights as a neutralpower be guarded, and that recog­nized authorities have looked to ar­mament as a means of developing ahigher patriotism, as a method ofmaintaining peace through militaryprestige, and as the road to makingthe younger generation of the countrymore able-bodied and more thoroughlydisciplined. The American univer­sities, with their three hundred thou­sand men, can aid substantially infollowing out the establishment ofvoluntary military training. The far­visioned are not those who disregardthe possibilities of international quar­rels, who blind themselves to theemergencies which may arise at anymoment. The future of the UnitedStates depends upon its foresight in� preparing' for just· Such' a day of need.Shall it be the implicit faith of thepeace propagandist, or the. alert pre-'cautions of the advocate of nationaldefense?

Announces List of Awards.Squad Has Good Chance to WinChampionship, If Not Handi·capped By Injuries.'.< Prospects for Chicago's gymnasticteam appear to be brighter than atany previous time during the presentseason. Captain Davis, who has beenhandicapped since the beginning ofthe season owing to a sprained wrist,is slowly rounding into form andshould be in first class condition forthe dual meets which are scheduledfor next quarter. Hibbart has beenworking almost continuously for thepast month on tumbling and will bea valuable man in this event.Veazey has been working hard forall the events and is fast taking rankamong the best all-around men in theConference. Cernon, Dyer aud Hulsare all showing good form on theside horse, the former doing espec­ially well in club swinging. CoachHoffer's squad seems to be weak onthe horizontal bar. Veazey, Huls,Smith, Dyer and Loser, however, areshowing the best in this event.Team Is Well Balanced.4'We have a much better balancedteam than last year and one withmore experience," said Coach Hofferlast night. "The men are all show­.ing great interest and striving hardto perfect their work in the variousevents. We have the best all-aroundteam in the Conference and providingwe arc not handicapped by injurieswe should stand a good chance of car­rying off the honors in the Conferencemeet to be held at Minneapolis inMarch."Among the other Conference teamsWisconsin is the most to be feared.Noble who will captain the Cardinalsquad this year is easily the best manin the horizontal bar event.' Althoughweakened considerably by the loss ofa number of men through graduation,Wisconsin still has the most exper­ienced team in the Wes�Illini Captain Injured.Kamm, who was chosen to lead the'Illinois gymnasists this season, 'willnot be able to compete on acount ofan injury to his 'knee. Aside fromthi� handicap the mini should present,a much' stronger aggregation thanlast year. Horimura is a very goodtumbler and a star on the horizontalbar. Smidl, who is again eligible forcompetition, together with Fishershould round out the team in all de­partments .as both are good all­around men.Northwestern or Minnesota canhardly be counted upon as serious con­tenders for first place. Minneso�,however, has a number of good menwho may change the present outlook.Northwestern can hardly be expectedto turn out a strong team since lastyear marked her first attempt atgymnastics.l\Ieet Called Off.Coach Hoffer has called off the meetscheduled to be held in Elgin nextSaturday.
