By MAY 1 Do You Think Jesus Wrote This ? s George Clark isr ft BY KAY NELSON MUTUAL SLAUGHTER AND SPORTSMANSHIP cry from Japanese army headquarters THE plaintive the Chinese are not plat inn fair m the fighting in Shantung may turn out to he the last dying gasp of that nohle fiction xxliith once went by the name of ed Warfare. According to the Japanese, the proverbially clever Chinese have been playing mean tniks on their unsuspecting invaders. Chinese soldiers doff their uniforms, filter into the to countryside back of the Japanese lines and conti look like farmhands, day laborers, or what not. At a propitious moment they extract weapons from secret hiding places and sally forth to slaughter Japanese truck drivers, blow up Japanese supply trains, shoot Japanese sentries and military police, and in other ways make life uncomfortable for their enemies. ie d this, say the Japanese, is not the ALL ofehivalric sort of fighting that was learned on the playing fields of Eton, and it obliges the sons of N i pj xn to burn Chinese villages, tear down farmhouses, and shoot a number of people who claim to he innocent high-minde- civilians. You could argue, of course, that the Chinese can hardly be blamed for disregarding the rules of warfare, in view of the fact that Japan has insisted from the start that this isnt a war at all, but just an incident. But it is more interesting to reflect that even the exponents of extreme ruthlessness in warfare look back longingly to the days when, war was a formalized contest carried on according to definite rules. devised by general agreement to mitigate THOSE rules, horrors of unrestrained savagery, provided that soldiers should fight only soldiers, that some sort of code of fair play should cover their mutual killings, and that rival commanders should he able to trust each other, within limits. For a full century they have been breaking down. The code still lingered in the American Civil War, although there were notable cases in which that war was fought without gloves. Since then things have grown much worse, until now passenger steamers are sunk without warning, defenseless towns are bombed, civilians are machine-gunne- d by aviators, and prisoners afe executed in wholesale lots. The last trace of civilized warfare has vanished; and it would be just as well if we all realized the fact. For while this world could safely contemplate the chances of war when war was fought by professionals within definite limits, it cannot do so nowadays, when war has no limits at all and babes in their cradles are the most Ifkely victims. And a world that cannot shape its policies in the light of that fact is heading for a tremendous catastrophe. e Ohio boy who has been publishing a The weekly newspaper for the last four years may consider himself a complete failure. He hasnt once been called a public menace. "Do believe that this is true? I looked at the newspaper clipping handed me by a student, and it was a letter purported to have been written by Jesus Christ after the crucifixion and deposited by Him under a stone at the foot of ihe cross. An injunction to have the letter published has frightened some into whose hands it has fallen, and it threatens misfortune on those who deliberately withhold it from others. The belief that Chnst really gave the letter is held by many According the story of how it came to light, a little child turned the stone over which the letter was hidden under, and the document was given to ft convert of the Christian faith.
