There are many varieties of dates,

be taken care of in another way.
The sweet, nutritious pulp of the
fruit IS one of the most important
parts of the plant. The date is
from one to three inches long and
is cured and dried The importa-
ton of dates into the United States
amounts to slightly more than a half
million dollars annually. The Arabs
have found the date to be a de-
pendable nutritious fruit.
The leaves and other parts of the
plant are also valuable, since they
can be used for building material
and other domestic causes. The
trunk is good for timber. In this
country, the date palm has been
useful as cover protection for plants
that would otherwise be parched
and shriveled by the sun. Since
the more mature trees reach a
height of 100 feet, they do not in
terfere with crops planted under
them. 1t is reasonably expected
that date palms will prove to be an
important part of the farming re-
gions Of the Southwest for this
reason.
Date palms grow in almost all
kinds of soils if their two require

AngIo-Saxon WorId's S
Survival Is Seen as
Stake in Present War
Library Of Congress
Group Discusses Views
On Thesis in Book

The present war is question of
the survival of an Anglo-SaXon
world or a conversion to Prussian-
ism. DR. Leon Dostert of George
town University, declared in the
Library of Congress last night in
a forum on the philosophical and
historical background of the present
conflict.
AS one of a five-man panel, he
expressed the hope that Germany
would not be permitted to substitute
continentalism for nationalism. This,
he added, would be jumping from
the frying pan of nationalism into
the fire of intercontinental con-
fiict."
The debate centered around the
thesis advanced by Friedrich w,
Forester in his book, Europe and
the German Question" The author
claimed Germany was led astray by
Prussianism, and was being false to
her true mission in Europe and the
world
Pictured as Problem Child"
DR.. Ergon Ranshofer- -Wertheimer,
formerly of the League OF Nations
secretariat, declared Germany is the
problem child of Europe and must
be studied in this light. Other Eu-
ropean nations, he said, are ref1eXes
to her actions.
The Versailles treaty was a mis-
take giving a peace which PIN
pricked the Germans and made
them mad" he added, in pointing
out that politicians and not states
men formulated the terms.
To this DR.. Dostert replied that
the treaty in actuality had never
been applied and, but for few
years, "has been asleep"
A review of the Forester book was
given by DR.. John K. Ryan of Cath
olic University, who pointed out the
author had led a life of conflict
with existing order" particularly in
his native Germany. DR.. Ryan re-
called that Foerster's writings dealt
with Prussian militarism, deltlca-
ton of war and contempt of law.
DR.. Richard H. Heindel, fellow OF
the Library of Congress, raised the
question as to any difference be-
tween militarism and navalism. DR..
Eugene N. Anderson, American
University, pointed out that military
machines were in. through ana all
over" the civilian populations,
whereas the theater of operations
for navies is far removed from the
view of noncombatantS. This dis
tinction, it was pointed out, had
marked effect on the people.
Seen as Propaganda Attempt.
DR.. Heindel asked his colleagues
10 show evidence in the book which
would provoke Fourth OF July
speeches" or other audience-rouslng
comment. The panel members gen.
orally agreed it was an attempt at
propaganda, but added treatment OF
the subject was in many instances
open to question.
DR.. Dostert, who fought in the
French Army during the World
War, warned his country had made
the mistake of being blind too long, "
thus permitting Germany to arm
for aggression at time when she
had arms to prevent it.
DR.. Wertheimer, an Austrian who
fought in the same war on the Ger
man side, suggested a federation of
Europe as the solution. However,
he added, this could be made effec-
tive only If Germany gave up mill
tarism and aggression.

ONEW YORK, Sept. 22-(R-
The football season already has
started as fast as a fighter trying
for a one-round Knockout, but
the action scheduled for next
weekend will make this look
like the beginning of snail race.
Last Friday and Saturday saw
a dozen or so major teams, most

die-hard conservatives, such as
the big three and a few of the
Western Conference teams, will
remain out of competition. And

Coach John French at Royal

Bathers whipped the Acorns,
1870, and defeated them in the
1888 and 1899 game. According
to Buckholz, French is compare

last year said he didn't think his
team would give the locals too
much of a battle.
Friday, he told Buckholx he
believed this was Royal Oaks

Last year, the Royal Oakers
lost only two games, dropping
the second to Crosse Pointe by q
single point. Most of their team
is back this year, according to
Buckholz, giving them a tough
