Recently the New York World asked all Congressmen for their views with respect to the attitude this country should assume in the matter of the armament pro i-rara reputed to come from Washington. OurownCongre8 man Benjamin K. Focht, stands tor the defense of our ,fl ig and country's honor to the last dollar and last man, but he behoves there are other ways than ways of war which kills and disaoles and grinds the masses to dust and poverty. He has often stat ed in speeches throughout his District that for our country's safety and freedom of the seas it should be war of defense to the last ditch, but war should not be sought, but instead ol wars of waste every youth should be edu cated and a pension granted to every aged American, and when Congress convenes he will intro duce a bill providing for such pensions. Here is Mr. Focht's brief yet pointed and pertinent reply to the World which was printed in that paper Suuda.v, November 14th: HOPES FOB DISARM AMKNT "While I am prepared to sup port a measure designed to am ply protect the national integrity I would much rather see The World and other treat newspa pers discuss the question of bow far the Uuitud States might be able to use its influence toward the world s disarmament in a peace conference that must fol low vhe war than to take fo granted that there is only one way to act, and that is prepare for more war. To my mind with Europe exhausted, this is the chance of centuries for this land of destiny to intervene for the world's peace." ' Tbe Philadelphia Record. The circulation of The Phila delphia Sunday Record is steadi ly growing, and deservedly so. This condition has been brought about by the fact that the Re cord is printing a most complete Sunday newspaper.
