BROTHERHOOD MEETING 
SINCLAIR KENNEDY OF BROOKLINE 
TALKED OF PLATTSBURG IDEA 
AND PREPAREDNESS. 
Sinclair Kennedy of Brookline, a 
graduate of the Plattsburg training 
camp, spoke to about 100 members of 
the Brotherhood in the Manchester 
Baptist church vestry on Monday 
evening. Mr. Kennedy is no half- 
way advocate of “preparedness for 
peace,” but favors “preparedness for 
war.” At the outset he pictured a 
dark future for America unless she 
was prepared... He referred to the 
hymn which was sung at the begin- 
ing of the meeting, ‘Work for the 
Night is Coming,” .as very appro- 
priate. 
“Appeals have been made to us +o 
aid Belgian babies, Polish babies and 
even German babies,” he said, “but | 
want to say a word for American 
babies.” 
All wars are fought for the protec- 
tion of women and children, Mr. 
Kennedy said. In the days of the 
cave men when the woman called to 
her man for protection he ventured 
forth to combat neighboring tribes 
with a stone axe. Today all the skill 
and science of modern civilization 1s 
used in warfare, and if the woman 
does not call to’ the man two years 
ahead of time she need not call at all. 
Tt will be too late. 
“Tt is humiliating to know that we 
are enjoying our local self-govern- 
ment only because of the protection 
afforded us by the British fleet. It is 
futile to count on that protection to 
last forever.” 
Speaking of the “Plattsburg idea,” 
Mr. Kennedy said that it embodied 
more than the physical bounds of the 
military camp. “It is an aspiration on 
the part of the men who graduate 
from the camp to arouse Americans 
to the fact that a man’s duties to his 
country come before the privileges 
which he enjoys,” he said. 
Mr. Kennedy recommends that the 
men on the coast join the naval train- 
ing cruise rather than the Plattsburg 
camp and leave the military training 
to the men from the inland states 
He discussed the possibilities of de- 
fense with America’s present facili- 
ties and compared them to those of 
the little Swiss republic. In Switzer- 
land at an expense of one-twentieth 
of what our standing army and na- 
tional guard costs us they mobilized 
an army of 100,000 men in 24 hours 
after war threatened and had 300,000 
more men on the way. America can 
mobilize according to the best esti- 
mates 90,000 trained men in 30 days. 
Mr, Kennedy said he was glad to
