 Several items reminiscent of early Russian tenure were receiv- ed," the report stated, slowly augmenting the rather meagre Russian Collection. Most mater ial received came from Kodiak where it was unearthed in the process of water main and sewer construction" The latter items, donated to the museum by c. M.

when assured that the Emperor and
the imperial household may be re-
tanned. Their reasoning follows:
D., The principal purpose of the
Allies, once the war is won, will be
TO make certain that never again in
the foreseeable future shall that
country be able to undertake a
career Of aggression.
To that end Japan will be stripped
of all territory outside the home
islands. She will give up what is left
of her naval and air power, already,
in the language of Admiral Halsey,
routed, beaten, broken" She will
demobilize her land army and sur
render her arms She will accept
the destruction of her war indus
tries. She will remain, as long as
the Allies decree it, at the mercy
of a completely effective blockade,
naval, air-and economic.
Imports Important.
The economic blockade in the
long run, on this theory, would
prove as important as any other.
1t would determine what raw mate
rials or natural resources were ac-
cesSible to Japan and the terms on
which Japan could do business with
the rest Of the world.
= During the decade Immediately
, preceding Japans entry into this
war the great Japanese financial
and commercial concerns were be-
ginning to be tightly interviewer
with some of the great concerns of
the United States, Great Britain,
France and Germany in interna-
'tional cartelS. Much already has
been told of how American, French
and British monopolies worked in
partnership with German monop-
olies to control the worlds business
in many lines. The story became
shocking when the Justice Depart
ment revealed instances in which
our own ability to make war had
been seriously crippled by interna-
tional patent agreements, particu-
larly agreements with German con-
Germs that worked hand in glove
, with the Nazi government.
That Japanese industrialists had
been steadily edging into this band
of business brothers is not so well
known.
Recent Decree Cited.
Yet a decree handed down three
weeks ago by the United States Dis
trict Court in New York against the
National Lead Co. and the Dupont
Company reveals Japanese COM
pany sharing in their international
monopoly of the vital titanium in
dustry, along with l. c.. Farben of
Germany. If you are interested in
names it was Kokusan Kogyo Ka-
bushiki Kaisha, commonly known
in the trade as XIX. XIX, of course,
wasn't tried by the court; it was
merely found to be "co-conspira-
tor" beyond the reach of the Ameri-
can courts, although the American
companies were owners Of substan-
tial stock interests in XXX.
There are similar cases pending
in the Federal courts against other
important American companies, In
cluding General Electric, Diamond
Match Co. and Bendix Aviation
Corp.
All of which relates to the terms
on which Japan will be permitted to
do business with the rest of the
world. The present United States
Government has undertaken to con-
troll or break up any further par
ticipation by American companies
e in international cartels. How sue
cessful the effort will prove re-
mains to be seen. Reports from

A record number of purebred
puppies changed ownership in the
last two weeks. Most of the pups
went to homes where there are
children. They are lucky pups If
the children are given some rudt-
mentary instruction in the care and
handling Of young animals. The
children must be made to realize
that puppies are not toys. II
treated roughly they may be per-
manently injured. That too strenu-
ous affection or too rough play may
cause pain, not only to the puppy.
but by a reflex action, to the child.
The puppy can be the instrument
for teaching the child reliability
consideration, punctuality and a
number of other good habits. And
while the child is learning these,
the puppy, too, will learn many
things which will make him far
more useful and intelligent dog
than one raised strictly according
to the book, and in the kennel. A
dog that has free and frequent
association with people is much
more alert and responsive than one
kept away from human companion
ship.

shows in Florida in January. They
are Moss superintended fixtures
and are scheduled for Jacksonville
