WAR'S LEGACY.
lf man does not stop war, where, she asks, is his boasted logic? Since war must always end around the conference table, and must always leave the world poorer by millions of lives and by hun dreds of millions of money, it cannot be beyond man's ingenuity to devise wore means whereby the conference could come before the carnage.
Peace can only rest on justice between the nations, and justice can only be brought about by creating understanding between peoples; and woman has suffi cient confidence in man to believe that he can, if he will, abolish those condi- tions which make for distrust, fear, and hatred.
She is pinning her faith in the future to the work of the Washington Confer ence-Daily Express...
