Entered in the Post Office in Nome as 2nd Class Matter MEMBER OF ASSOCIATED PRESS FOR PEACE AT ITS PRICE. The ‘‘Peace Ballot,” re cently reported from Great Britain demonstrated a hope for peace and an over whelming desire on the part of some 11.000.000 vot ers to keep out of war. However, the British peo ple did understand the is sue and showed their will ingness to pay the price that the world must pay for peace. For example. 9,657,606 voted for combined econo mic pressure to stop an at tack by a nation upon an other. More significant was the 6,606,777 votes in favor of military measures, if necessary, to prevent a nation from attacking an other. In both instances the presumption was that other nations would com bine to curb the attacker. Only 607,165 voted against economic pressure and on ly 1,262,261 were against military measures. If this vote represented accurately the opinion of the British people it is easy to see why British states men at Geneva were insist ent that the nations of Eur ope act together against an aggressive Italy.—Cordova Daily Times.
