PRUSSIA" AND "CHINA"

Newspaper headlines, when they follow the
facts accurately the copyreaders make them
sometimes give false impression.
This has been the in the recent stories telling

countries really concerned in what is happening
They aren't. All they want is peace-the chance to
live out their lives in their homes undsturbed and
secure.
The tragedy, of course lies in the fact that it is
precisely these unconcerned and ignorant Chinese and
Russian peasants who would have to go out and get
killed if the two nations should go to
