Fascist Pleas Have
Counterfeit Ring.
TO the Editor of The Star:

10 JHe Eultol Oh lne otdI.
Fascist propaganda has a distinctly
counterfeit ring in American ears even
when it comes in the cunning guise of
economic pleas for the alleged have not
nations. In the mildest and most rea-
soned tones in the world, these propa-
gandists inform us that by holding on
to sources of raw materials democracies
are driving the dictators to war. It's
too late to make any thinking person
Fascist action has discredited it too often.
The hope of economic gain is by no
means the sole cause of war. And in
this case the real drive toward war is
to be found in Fascist philosophy, not
in economic pressure.
What would happen if the democratic
nations made further surrenders for the
sake of immediate peace? AS any one
who has studied current German-Ital-
ian-Japanese political literature can tes-
tify, this would not bring peace at all,
but only more inevitable war. The
Fascist philosophy intends world con-
quest. They have declared themselves
destined to rule other nations by reason
of their superior blood. The raw ma
terials that We and they alike must now
purchase they intend to take free by
enslaving the natives of the producing
countries. In short, they want it all,
they want 1t exclusively, and they want
1t free.
Time and again our sincere and gen.
erous Secretary Hpll has offered eco
nomic appeasement to all the nations
of the earth, only to have his offer
scornfully refused by those nations which
say they need 1t most. He has on many
occasions expressed his sympathy with
nations having insufficient resources
within their borders. and has offered to

A. The following explanation has been
given of this custom: Originally war
ships fired a salute of seven guns, the
number seven being selected because of
its mystical significance from antiquity.
Although the salute at sea was seven
guns, shore batteries were allowed to
fire three guns to the ships one. The
reason for this was that sodium nitrate
was largely used in the manufacture of
powder. This was easily spoiled at sea,
but could be very readily kept on land. 4
The multiplier three was selected prob
ably because of it's symbolism With the
development of the manufacture of
powder, the number of guns for the
international naval salute was made to
correspond with that of the land forces.
On August l8, 1875 resolution adopted
by the United States provided that
salutes be returned gun for gun. At this
time the British salute was already 81
guns, therefore, this number was &C
cepted by the United States.
@. understand that thickness has
something to do with the beauty of old
stained glass. VIII you please explain
this?-T. M.
A. The stained glass of the Middle
Ages is irregular in thickness and be-
cause of this the light rays are bent
passing through it. The old stained
glass is usually from one-sixteenth to a
quarter Of an inch thick.
Q. In what book does the character
"Weaver of Raveloe" occur?-J. D. B.
A. "Silas Marner," by George Eliot.
@. What are the dates between which
hurricanes occur in Miami?-A. G.
A. The hurricane season in Florida
Is mainly during August and the early
part of September. These storms occur
occasionally In June and In October.

Finds Our River
Beats World


From figures published in the May
Ii issue Of The Detroiter, the Detroit
river is found to carry more tonnage,
worth more i'm value, than any other
waterway In the world.
A special table compiled from 1915
TO 1887 shows that in the latter. year
113iS36.95S tons. valned at $l,29eI1S.-
30. passed up and down the Detroit
river. This Is far in excess Of the ton
mage or value Of that in the Manches-
ter, England, waterways, or the Wei
land, Kiel, Panama, Suez or 500 can
ais.
The traffic through the Detroit river
is shown to equal the total for all the
