ROSEVILLE - A detective
from the State Fire Marshal's
office today joined Roseville
firemen in tracing the causes of
two mysterious fires which have
broken out in Packard avenue
residences within the past "a
hours.
The first of the two cases
which aroused the suspicious of
Fire Chief Harold Flechsig was
that which, apparently starting
beneath the porch of the Eta
Leach residence, 25155 Pack
ard, at Ais p. m. Thursday, re-
suited in but minor damage.
At 7:l5 a. m. today firemen
were notified that the Samuel
Leopard residence, at 25l20
Packard, almost directly across
the street from the Leach home,
was ablaze.
Approximately 5000 damage
resulted from the second fire
Chief Flechsig said in pointing
out that the occupants of both
homes were out when the fires
were discovered.
A second blaze in the Lap
pard home, which the fire chief
believes was entirely separate
from the first call there, was
discovered but Is minutes after
the fire fighters had returned TO
the station. 1t was extinguished
without difficulty.

Will the destruction of ia
pans war machine, and the Ii
quotation of the so-Called mill
tarist clique in Japan, guaran-
tee us lasting peace in the Pa
cific?
20" No leader or aTS OF the Omit.
! ed Nations has dared 10 predict
that it will, and the reason is
quite simple Our statesmen re-
alize now that the war lords Of
Japan are not alone to blame
for Japan's atroCious record of
plumber, slaughter, rape and
cruelty.
Our leaders know the reSpon-
sibility must fall also upon the
overwhelming majority Of the
Japanese people themselves, and
that we shall still have tens of
millions of these people living
in the same world with us after
the war.
In recent years Japan has de-
liberately slaughtered 100000
| human beings, and starved fully
as many additional millions. She
has conquered and plundcred 10
! countries in which she has en-
shaved almost 500, 100000 hu-
man beings. She has distributed
| narcotics among these cnSlaved
/ peoples on a wholesale basis.
and she is guilty of an estimated
7 3,000,000 cases Of rape Tens of
/ thousands Of other authenticated
examples of savage atrocities
are part of the same record.
WON'T ADMIT WRONG
Anyone who considers the
immensely Of that infamous rec
ord must see at once that il
could not have been accomplish

called war lords. Obviously,
those war lords required con-
siderable assistance, and they
found it, willing and waiting, in

the goldman he thinks he is, we
might hope that defeat would
teach him a lesson. But he is
very human individual, and his
reaction TO defeat will be equal

table.
The Japanese will regard their
defeat as an unbearable humili-
alton to be avenged by any
means at the earliest possible
opportunity. They will have no
! desire for our friendship, eX-
cept as il may help prepare
them for the day Of vengeance.
To believe otherwise is 10 be-
lieve that Japan might drive

our original l3 colonies, and
make us like it, and accept it,

TERRIBLE TEMPTATION

The destruction of the Ameri-
can fleet at Pearl Harbor, the
conquest of an empire potential
ly the most powerful on earth,
and the willingness to wage war
against the combined forces OF
the entire World-these will be
but a few of the glorious mem
cries the average Japanese will
have of the war lords. Also to
their credit will be the fact that
no single nation, not even Amer
lea, undertook TO defeat them
single handed.
Finally, a terrible temptation

for the Election of Dewey and

Harlem's world famed Hotel
Theresa; at the Woodside Hotel,
also in Harlem; the Southway
Hotel in Chicago, as the mid
western headquarters; and the
Pacific Coast headquarters at
Hotel Clark in Los Angeles.
The support of j. Finley Will
son and the Elks of the Dewey
Bricker ticket is one of the most
significant developments in the
campaign as regards the Negro.
1t is one of the first instances
in which an all-Negro organiza-
ton of the magnitude, influence
and power additionally exercised
by the Elks, has come out openly
in support of either of the presi-
Dental candidates. The Elks'
membership is comprised of Ne
groes from every walk of life,
from ministers, educators, phys
icians, school teachers, business
men, labor leaders, and must
clans to porters, cooks, railroad
men, laborers and athletes. These
people have shown their faith in
the ability of J. Finley Wilson
to lead them by keeping him as
grand exalted ruler for nearly a
quarter of a century.

New York was jubilant over the

ton of Dewey and Bricker.
