Sir Basil Zaharoff, one of the world’s leading mu- nitions salesmen, was described the other day by Charles M. Schwab as “one of the finest, most estim- able men I have ever known. Notwithstanding all the libels and slanders spread concerning him, nothing is farther from his thoughts than to foment war.” | Mr. Schwab himself, who during the war was one lof America’s chief merchants of death, is recognized 'as an ethical, amiable, highly beloved business man, {a model husband and son. William P. Brown, the exporters’ agent who found himself in the midst of the Sao Paulo revolution in {Brazil as chief purchasing agent for guns and air- planes, played his part very unwillingly and was so mild that, as he said, “If some one had said ‘boo’ to | me in those times, I'd have dropped dead, sure.” But what have personalities got to do with it? How- ever far from these men may be the thought of Yo- menting war, however, genial or mild they may be, the fact remains that the battleships, guns and airplanes actually kill people.
