Charlie Chaplin, the comedian, alone had sold over $1,000,000 worth of Liberty bonds to raise money for the building of these guns and battleships. Of course, the people wanted to see how the big steel factories worked! Vernon Howe Bailey presented the idea to Harper's magazine. "Good idea. Just what we want. Go at once," they said.

In one short sentence, bitter and venomous or cruelly funny, he could sum up, skin and broil anybody he knew. I was puzzled until I learned the truth about him.

This went, on for 10 minutes, meeting only "No, No, No." Bailey, appreciating that the Bethlehem Steel Company plant was a rich mine of picture subjects, thought fast and advanced every argument he could summon.

Finally, he hit on a brilliant idea. "Mr. Grace," he said, "don't you think that the people who have poured out their money so liberally for these battleships should be allowed to see how it is being spent? Don't you think that this is a chance to do something directly for the people?" Mr. Grace looked at Vernon Bailey with interest. As he thought it over, he felt that there was something due the people of America.

Plainly he was impressed. Mr. Bailey pressed his point, and Mr. Grace grew more thoughtful. Finally, he said, "You are right.

The paper asserts that every German-American has as much right to be pro-German in the present war as for others to be pro-British or pro-French. II professes to see nothing but peril for every German-American in this country if bund objectives are not achieved. The change in the title arrangement of the propaganda organ is likely to increase rather than abate the antagonism of most American citizens. They are almost certain to be even more incensed over the "Free American" than by the German title for Hitlerism's propaganda sheet. That the change was made, however, Indicates some of the Nazi agents finally are feeling the effects of American bitterness toward the present German government.

LINDBERGH MAY LEAVE AGAIN. IT IS reported in Washington, on what seems to be good authority, that Col. Charles A. Lindbergh is planning to take his family abroad again to make their home. The last time he left the country he resided two and a half years in England and then was at home some months on an island off the coast of France.

No announcement has been made as to where he is planning to go, if he decides to leave this country again, and none of his friends has ventured a guess. The colonel made a couple of broadcasts a short time ago that aroused much discussion in this country and elsewhere. In one talk he practically urged Canada to cut loose from Great Britain and run its own affairs in its own way. That probably did not enhance his popularity in England. He called for an embargo on shipments of "offensive weapons" to belligerents.

That probably did not make a very favorable impression in France. His countrymen will be sorry to lose the colonel and his interesting family wherever they may go. Mrs. Lindbergh has written some very creditable books which, with her charm and grace, have made her a favorite. The colonel has served the cause of aviation with ability that is generally recognized.

HITLER'S QUEER NAVAL POLICY. THE SCUTTLING by its crew of the luxury liner Columbus, third largest vessel in Germany's merchant marine, adds another puzzle to the policy of the Hitler regime. The Fuehrer's orders to destroy valuable craft either reflect a defeatist attitude, a fear that public opinion in the Reich might not endure humiliating naval defeats or else a tendency grossly to underestimate the strength of the far-flung British fleet. Hitler may have reasoned that public opinion might devote itself to gloating over depriving the British of their prey. Emphasis of that phase might gloss over the loss of the battleship Admiral Graf Spee and now the passenger liner Columbus.

The rash and foolhardy attempt to run the latter through the allied blockade may have been prompted by an the pilot sees a good spot to land he starts shooting at the balloons with a revolver, giving him good point of view. ana and Butler meet there will be a basketball game. target practice besides saving his TREATY RIGHTS OF RED MEN.
