The World’s Greatest Gun Factory

On the occasion of a recent visit to the great steel plant at South Bethlehem, Pa., Charles M. Schwab, the steel magnate, is quoted as saying: “I shall make the Bethlehem steel plant the greatest armor plant and gun factory in the world.”
This is the time to which the words of the prophecy of Joel apply: “Prepare war, wake up the mighty men,” etc., and the purpose to establish the world’s greatest gun factory in that country which has perhaps the least occasion of any to anticipate war, shows how war-like is the world’s outlook to-day. What a mockery that such a plant should be located in a town named after the birth-place of the Prince of Peace.
