War Always Possible "We are in sorrow today because of our wars. All of us would like to think of war as belonging to the past and that we would fight no more. Every war we ever fought was supposed to be our last war. We have never had our last war or never will have it There are more causes for war in the world today than ever before.

Unrest faces us from every quarter. War always seems impossible, but the history of our time proves it is never improbable. The only way to be sure of peace is to be reasonably prepared for war. "The future security of our institutions lies in preparedness. If we are ready to fight, no nation will annoy us.

To keep prepared for war we must always be ready with guns, ammunition and men. Fortunately we are not neglecting these necessary measures. Military training in our high schools and colleges is a step the right direction. Let not the voters ever be deluded by a few misguided pacifists to abandon this splendid practice. "Let us always keep our military organizations in a fit condition for service our national guard, our army and navy.

Chamberlin, Davenport attorney, delivered the principal address in connection with Memorial Day ex ercises at the soldiers and Sailors monument on Main street north of Eleventh street, at 11 a. m.

today. Pointing out that the country is saddened on this day by the memory of the loss of human life in past wars, Mr Chamberlin further declared that the best insurance against a recurrence of these sacrifices is to be found in preparedness and not in pacificism. His address, in part, follows: "On this Memorial Day our thoughts turn not only to the soldiers who departed but those who have returned to live among us. "In war time we have to fight for our preservation. The success of a conflict depends on how well each one of us does his or her duty.

We hear a great deal of talk about a man's obligation to fight for his country. This just appeal is always used to rally men to their nation's defense. After a war is over we hear very little said about a country's duty to tie returned soldier. Heroes Quickly Forgotten "Often the hardships of war completely unfit him for a civilian existence. The lot of a returned soldier is generally hard.

In times of peace we quickly forget our heroes. The ex-soldier is neglected by his more fortunate countrymen who stayed at home to prosper while he was at the front. Sometimes he is allowed to starve. Because of the vast numbers of laws we have urged upon ourselves, he is often thrown into prison. The ex-soldier should never be humiliated by the country he gave his all to save.

No matter what misfortune befalls, him in civil life, we must remember he has already paid his debt to society. "The men who have fought for us should be the only aristocrats a democracy recognizes. Ex-soldiers should be marked men of special privilege. Society owes this to them. They should receive special consideration under the laws and from courts and juries.

No ex-soldier should ever be hanged by the state he risked his neck to save. Men who have fought for their country should be exempt from most forms of taxation more so than they are now.
