On tho other hand, Seeret'i v Hull solemnly warned Japan thai the bombing of Wnnking would se lioualy jeopardise the friendly latjontl between this country anJ Japan, pointing out thii.t Japan hn-i no right, either by internatioiy.l law or otherwise, to embnrk up.) wholesale bombingH of oilties an J eivilians.

THE SLAUGHTER CONTINUES To put down m cold type the: number of human beings killed in t'io United Stales each year by automobiles makes littlo imprcssii n upon tho average mind.

Laughing Around the World With IRVIN S. COBB > Just Before the Shooting Started By IRVIN S. COBB rST before hostilities ended in 1918, a young lieutenant of my ac quaintance was detailed to dutv as a drill officer at camp of colored draft troops in Mississippi. When he got back home after the armistice he told this story: He said that late one night he was returning from a nearby town to his quarters. As he neaved the sentry linos, out of the darkness came a voice calling "Halt!" < ; # He halted, gave the countersign and started on. Immediately, in the gloom, there was a rattle as of a rifle being shifted in the sentry's hands and again the same voice cried: "Halt!" "You've halted me once already," he said sharply, rightly figuring that the unseen one! must be a green trooper, "and i've given you the password. What more do you want?" I "But, boss," said the sentry, drawing nearer, "I don't know you." "Very probable," said the captain. "What has that got to do with it?"
