II steers are selling at 26 cents per

sells the meat to the retailer for 1852. That

dividual brutality Is likewise crime.
This Is new precedent: 1t may

ThiS-from now On-noFmal pro-
cedure may contribute to the dis
continuance of war as the instru-
ment for settling international diff
ferences. Surely no leader, or group
of leaders, will overlook entirely the
personal consequences in the event
of their nations defeat, unless their
cause is so unqualifiedly righteous
that they are willing to hang for it.
, but the incongruous, and rather
sinister, aspect of this new system
is that only the losing side will be on
trial regardless of which was the
aggressor or which perpetrated most
of the brutality. If the Axis nations
had won the last war their leaders
would not have been tried and con-
victed though manifestly they were
the guilty parties in this case. If we
are forced into war by Russia, and
they win, Stain won't be found
guilty-but our leaderC will, even
though innocent.
The innocent will suffer and the
guilty go unpublished in some of the
wars of the future, but foreknowl-
edge of this fact won't alter the pre-
cedent now created-the condemna-
ton and execution of the leaders of
the losing side.
Maybe it's all wrong. Maybe war
should be regarded as is any other
contest. Personally we don't think
so. We believe the outstanding duty
of all national leaders is to keep
their people from being dragged into
the indescribable agony of war. If
they be too ambitious or too stupid
to be successful in doing so-then
they should take the consequences.
The moral for the leaders is-to
keep their peoples out of wars. They
may think they are going to win; :

At the last bowling session, the
Browns, under the captainship of

trouncing the Red Sox, 80. The
Browns had been in third place, but
moved to the top when the league
leading Indians dropped two games

lost pair to Rohrer's Tigers. This
