An unthought-of result of the war
has been the creation of a lead-pencil
industry in Japan. In 1911 Japan i'm.
ported 65,000,000 pencils, most of
which came from America and Ger.
many. But with the opening Of the
European conflict German sources Of
supply were cut off and native manu-.
facturers, who had been producing
only in comparatively small quantities,
seized their opportunity and made the
most Of it. In 1914 Japan exported
over nine million pencils and in 1910
the number had increased to 16S,000,.
600. There is strong indication, OBJ.

by them after the war, for they have
the advantage of very cheap labor.

"The United States once took down
the American flag and that was wher
it lowered it at Havana and helped
to hoist in its place the flag of the
Cuban republic"
This sentiment was the real text
of an able and eloquent address by
Representative J. F.. r. O'Connor OF
Grand Forks, at the Auditorium on
Sunday evening which fired the open
ing shot in the campaign now on for
the knights of Columbus war fund A
magnificent audience packed the huge
chamber to the galleries and overflow

"And the American flag will never
come down in this war; resumed Mr.
O'ConnOr, until peace is proclaim
ed from Ierlin and the German peo,
pie are added to the other free peo-
pies of the world"
In his opening sentences the speak
er made it clear that this war is not
against the Germans as a people but
against the military autocracy which
brought it on and as protest against
which the Germans in this country
sought refuge from the fatherland,

Germany's Plotting.
The speaker reviewed at some
length the preparation which Germany
has been making since 1870 to spring
at the throat of the world. He told
of the use of the best agencies of the
nation to cultivate the spirit of hate
toward all mankind, and Of the edu-
cation Of the masses by the schools
and press to the belief that France,
England and Russia were in league to
crush Germany and by these means
to build up a national creed of hate
and plant the belief that the war sure
to come was war of defense to cloak
the imperial designs of the kaiser and
the classes to make Germany the
one world power and all other nations
and continents vassals of Prussian
ambition and brutality.
The speaker pointed out, too, that
the systematic plans thus followed to
breed worldwide war were forceS
upon the emperor and the governing
classes by the dangerous growth OF
German social democracy in spite of
of the tremendous powers used to COM
bat it.
