I to an Harlem Rabbi Preaches Eloquent Sermon on Duty of Jewish People TEMPLE. AT EIGHTH AVENUE Against Human Frailties, Xot Against Men. In the pulpit of Rabbi Alexander Lyons, at the Eighth Avenue Temple, last night, Dr. M. H.

Harris of Harlem preached a strong sermon on "War and Peace," in which he outlined lessons of the war and the duties of the Jewish people in America. He said in part: "The only lesson some of our citizens are learning from the European war is America's duty to increase its armament. I plead with the Jewish citizens of America to derive from the European conflict rather the lesson of disarmament. The old sonhistrv that hues armies and navl. among nations is exposed today as a falacy of fallacies.

Europe's colossal armaments did not prevent war, but caused it. The United States, distant, unbiased proclaimers of the Monroe Doctrine that assures the peaceful destiny of the Western Hemisphere from territorial ambition is most fitted to be the arbiter among the nations at this supreme hour. When it signed twenty-six treaties of arbitra tion, Its work had already begun. "The American Jews can gratefully serve their country in no nobler than urging it to stand up for peace not a patched-up peace, but a peace everlasting. Nothing is settled finally unless it is settled rightly.

But cannot teach disarmament unless practice It We must have the courage of our convictions. If we are not pre pared yet to change our battleships into mercnant-marines, we might feel reaoy not to add to their number, us lead the way in proposing i lernational army and navy, controlled by a world tribunal to regulate and II" I "Why should not Israel prepare for this better status by a campaign ui eaucauon iet us teach that holy war is a contradiction in terms i.et us taboo the martial spirit In literature and raise monum itverters of war. Let us abandon that narrow chauvinistic patriotism that needs a setting of cannon and nets for its background, and depends upon hatred of other countries for its raison d'etre. Let us evolve a new patriotism that will be intensive and not exclusive, and demonstrate that it is better exemplified in the workshop man on me oattieiieid. The time h.

como to teach the school children that a patriot is not necessarily he who fights his country's enemies, but is quite as well shown in being a gooi mechanic, a faithful clerk, a just em Ploy. "The battles of the morrow must be waged, not with force, but with spirit, not against human beings, but against human frailties. Let us net fight France, but French morals; not Italy, but its Maffla and black-hand; not Russia, but Slavic despotism; not Turkey, but its fanaticism and sloth. Let us don the armor of peace, to wage bloodless, but none the less, determined battle against child labor, woman barter, against white slavery and black peonage. Let us organize battalions of peace to attack all lurking evils, from Turkish Backsheesh to American graft.

Let us fight that unholy alliance of the politician and the criminal and raid the dens of gambling and vice, in place of the homesteads of Flanders and Gallcia. Some say-that a nation, long in peace, grows flabby, but with such a programme before us, there is work calling for the highest and intensest of energies for many generations."
