Because a typesetter on a Cologne, Germany, newspaper, the Volkszeitung, by error put a question mark where none was intended, publication of that periodical was suspended for ten days. The paper told how President von Hindenburg, in sending a birthday greeting to Premier Hitler, wished the premier “Many more years of fruitful activities and personal prosperity?” It was a trivial mistake, but the German censor didn't like that question mark, and so ordered the newspaper shut down, prove to be only “seraps of paper.” SCRAPS OF PAPER eccceeee It is disheartening to witness the crumbling of hopes for universal peace, | but it is futile to ignore them.

But with what result? Experience has proved over and. over again that among the most advanced na- tions of a boasted Christian civilization the cynical slogan “necessity xiaea no law,” still prevails. Long before the World War the in- tegrity of Belgium was agreed to by the European powers, including Germany; all the great powers agreed in 1899 to refrain from the use of poisonous gases; the de- struction of helpless non-combatants was universally banned. by common consent. Yet Germany invaded Belgium; she _ be- gan the use of poisonous gases at Ypres; she destroyed non-combatants in sub- marine and aerial warfare.. Nearly every treaty or convention made by Germany be- came a “scrap of paper’ at the command of necessity. Other nations have not been blameless in this respect by any means. In 1933 at the Naval Arms Reduction Conference, the great power again agreed to refrain from the use of gases in war, yet the United States and all the rest are work- ing with feverish haste to devise more ef- @eecccccccecces Howes pcx th Bho who we atte? 49.

She apparently was obsessed with the i desire to destroy wantonly. Finally her mother changed her tactics in treating Molly’s case. She stopped resisting Molly's impulses and tried to make use of them. She* suddenly realized that the child did not know how to use her hands or her creative energy constructively.
