Action to be Taken by the War De- 
partment on Improving Drawbridge. 
A week from next Wednesday, Nov. 
17, a hearing will be given at the Town 
hall, at 10.45 a. m, on the matter of 
improving the drawbridge, at the en- 
trance to the inner harbor at Manchester, 
for which petition was made some 
months ago through the office of John- 
son, Clapp and Underwood of Boston, 
the town counsel. ‘The granting of the 
hearing is in accordance with the follow- 
ing statement from the office of the sec- 
retary of war: 
** Having good reason to believe that 
the bridge over Manchester harbor of the 
Boston & Maine R. R. is an unreason- 
able obstruction to the free navigation of 
said Manchester harbor on account of in- 
sufficient height and width of draw span, 
of slow operation of the draw span and 
of piling and stone left in the channel 
through the draw. It is proposed to re- 
quire the following change by Dec. 31, 
1910. Widen the draw to clear width 
of not less than 40 feet, increase the 
clear height under the draw span to not less 
than 8 feet at mean high waterand place 
in efficient condition the mechanism for 
operating the draw span.’’ 
Ir is the aim of Mr. Ginn, the Bos- 
ton publisher at the head of the new 
peace-propaganda, to unite the business 
men of the world for the suppression of 
war. This may or may not be an- 
other wild peace dream. War upsets 
business, and except for a nation or a 
commercial interest which happens to be 
favorably situated the result is long stand- 
ing business depression. There seems 
to be no other element of society backed 
by means and having a common interest 
so well adapted for the task of peace- 
making as the business men of the 
world. It is primarily an appeal to the 
pocket, an appeal which strikes home 
the world over. 
While the movement proposed by 
Mr. Ginn is new, the idea behind it is 
old. It is undisputed that financiers 
have again and again decided whether 
war should be or should not be. “They 
controlled the purse, and controlled it 
for the good of business. The new 
plan is not to use the holdup on nations 
and rulers, rather to unite the business 
interests in the maintenance of schools 
to arouse the convictions of all classes as 
to the benefits of peace. While it may 
put on a moral front, the force behind 
the business men’s peace association will 
be commercialism, and when money 
talks things generally go.
