it over to China to get it off it's

than any one else to do with this
transaction, and there is every in

PARIS, March 26.-Before very
long there is going to be a law
against French newspapers using
photographs of crime horrors. The
bill now before the lawmakers will
probably be considerably changed
before passage, but in some form
or other it is pretty safe.
Nor will it come before it is
needed Only two classes of Pa
risians read their morning payers
over their breakfasts. The first is
the man with the cast-iron stom-
ach, the second is the chap who
doesn't have any breakfast. For
those who are inclined to expert
ence some slight feeling of revul-
sion when looking at gruesomely
hideous things, the advice is to
leave the paper alone until the
breakfast table is safely passed.

A recent example of this inclina-
ton to print horrors was in the
case of the murder of the 16-year-
old Elisa Vandamme. The girls

And now, just as the occident is

comes the statement on the au-

as Prof. Theodore Schiemann of
Berlin, probably the best posted
man in the world on international
politics, that the Chinese govern
ment is about to introduce uni
versal military service on the Ger
man model throughout the empire.
This means an army of 100000
men and Prof. Schiemann remarks
quite openly that it will constitute
menace to occidental civilization.
