War Not Only Kills Bodies But Ideals
MRS. HENRY VILLARD,
President of Women's Peace Conference.

Must the pride with which women point to the life
saving character of the work of the numberless
charitable agencies throughout the country--with a
resultant lowering of the death rate in our great
cities--be offset by the slaughter of our best
beloved ones on the field of battle or their death
by disease in camps?

No longer ought we to be called upon to be
particeps criminis with men to the extent of being
compelled to pay taxes which are largely used for
the support of the army and navy.

Moreover, a recourse to war as a means of righting
wrongs is full of peril to the whole human race.
Not only are bodies killed, but the ideals which
alone make life worth living are for the time
being lost to sight. In place of those finer
attributes of our nature--compassion, gentleness,
forgiveness--are substituted hatred, revenge and
cruelty.
