Peace on Earth.

But to speak plainly, peace is not In
itself human ideal. AS long as it
leaves unsolved the problems Of JUS

ton. writes David Jayne Hill in the
Century. 1t may even be repugnant
to the moral sentiments of an enlight-
ened conscience. 1t is to be desired
only when 1t is the concomitnnt Of
realized social good, for 1t is in no
sense an end in itself. But the word
Is not to be set aside as representing
II mere negation, as II it were simply
ne absence of strife. Peace on earth

FooIing War Photographers.

One result of the use of wholesale
photography in the war zone has been
to introduce the new element of de-
ceptive scenery and dummy gun posi-
tions into warfare. Such false posi-
tions are built exactly to resemble real
gun emplacements. 1t is said that in
France today out of four objects that
are apparently concealed batteries as
recorded by the camera, only one con-
tains real guns. The others are set up
especially for the benefit of enemy
photographers.

Into Bankruptcy
Policeman Policy Low
cred Circulation, Says
Creditors Counsel

"Pesrson's Magazine" which has
exhibited pro-German tendencies, Is
in bankruptcy, but is TO be continued
probably with an entirely different
policy and under reorganized dlrec-
ton.
An involuntary petition in bank
ruptcy was filed yesterday by blau,
Zalkin & Cohen. representing the cred
itors. The liabilities are said to eX-
coed 100000, and the assets are I'M
known. Judge Hough appointed Peter
B. Olney, jr., receiver, with authority
TO conduct the business for ten days
and TO borrow $3.50 to get out the
November issue.
Harry Zalkin, OF counsel for the
creditors, said last night that the
magazines pro-German policy was I'M
doubtedly responsible for its Difficult
ties, as its circulation had decreased
to a point where it was unable TO
meet its obligations. 1t was realized

good will, which extended over pc
riod of seventeen years, and that the
only practicable method OF realizing

These creditors were present at "A
meeting OF the directors on Friday
when il was acknowledged that out
standing obligations could not be met.
Within a few days reorganization
meeting will be held, at which II IS
thought that a plan of action will be
proposed by the creditors, the claim
Of one of whom exceeds 100000. BY
the time that the receiver has got out
the next issue it is believed that the
concern will be able to resume busi-
ness on the new basis and recover its
circulation.
Among the creditors are Frank Har-
