Arabs. who hold SO much Of the lana
Major Jabotinsky argued that the Arabs
had made it nothing but a desert and
that it belonged by right to the jews
and the mite so because they would
develop it and make It productive. But
the attitude of the Arabs IS such to-
wards the Jeys-that the only safety for
the Jews will be when the Arabs are
convinced that there is a wall OF IRON
around every Jewish home and that 1t IS
an unsafe thing to msddle with thai
wall of iron. This means a Jewish ar

game Of grab for that has been their
education under their rulers They

keen their pledge to build a state in
Palestine. For that reason there must

CONNECTICUT COLLEGE
PROFESSOR INVENTs NEW GAS

A new gas-a Tuning liquid-that
eats men alive and triumphs over any
mask or. armor-a connection to make
Satan envious. IS the inspiration Of a
short article on Preparedness, by Prof.
Henry W. Lawrence, Jr., Of Connecticut
College at New London printed in a re-
cent issue Of the Advocate Of Peace. Re
ferring to the article editorially In The
same issue, the Advocate of Peace says:
From official documents and recent ad
dresses of chemists. ii would be easy
to deepen the horror which this brief
bit Of realism creates. The thesis Is
that the more horrible war is known
to be, the less likely governments and
people will be to run to It. Mass psy-
chology does not seem to work that
way"
Prof. Lawrence's article follows:
THE examining surgeon said he didn't
have a single white corpuscle left in
his body. He was absolutely defense
less against the first disease that blew
his way; SO they sent him to the hos

Of my white army of defense and could
