The memorial cites the fact that
volcanic heat already Is being used

not gone forward so much as in the
1t is because SO many firms
and individuals in and about Toxic
depend for their very existence upon
the. building up Of the Japanese navy
which means contracts to shipbuild-
ers and dock companies and profit TO-
the thousand and one interests which
fatten ON a swollen. navy and IN in
creased ornaments generally.
His Sons Idea,
To-day my young son wrote out the
following which he calls an appeal to
the American children from a Japan
ese boy" and Mr.. ,Hyuga gave the
correspondent the following letter.
81 am glad to hear from papa You
now have a very good and kind presi-
dent. Papa says your new president
can really do lots Of good things for
the world.
s.f'Before I saw the Polish orphans
I liked to e big gums and battleships
'dren came to Japan from Siberia, I
went to see them, as they stayed in
the Red Cross hospital near my
house. They looked very unhappy,
very thin and dirty and had no boots
and proper. clothes. OF course our
people gave them all things they
wanted and they are all right now.
Papa tCOt0 me Inelr IaLnerS were
killed by guns and battleships and
that their mothers died Of sickness
because they had no doctors and
medicine.
Since then, I do not like guns and
~battleshtps any nor and I chucked
all my toy guns and tin gunboats
away. I think you will do the same
il you. only saw these Polish children
yourself.
Papa told me our people are
building very big battleships. I asked
him why they make them now that
the kaiser is no more. But here papa
cannot make me understand. Only he
says America started building them
and Japan must do the same. I think
this is very foolish as the guns some
time goes off by mistake and hurts
lots of people. Is it not better not to
have them built? i.
"!'If you think just as I do. will
you ask all the boys of your class If
they think the same way and IL they
