Even at an hour when war with all its mechanized terrorism and its limitless power of destruction is at work in Spain, in China, and elsewhere, it is obvious that the nations, although they are armed to the teeth, really fear war and want to avoid it.

A hundred things have happened during the last few years that prior to the World War would have quickly brought declarations of war and put nations in deadly conflicts. The World War revealed in some measure what modern warfare means, and no nation welcomes it. particularly if it involves attack or defense against a formidable foe.

But our lesson enforces insistent and persistent questions. Can nations that think war, that talk war, and that are armed to the teeth, secure and maintain peace? Can mankind be free from strife among nations if there be strife and warfare among individuals? Is world peace a desirable condition of blessedness that comes through talking about it, through the machinery of treaties and World Courts and Leagues of Nations, or is world peace something that de-

pends fundamentally on men of peace and good will?

” # =

T is not difficult to answer these questions. In fact, they are answered in the history of the world and in the course of daily life. If we would attain any real peace, it must come through better relationships among men and through the casting out from human life of the things that make for war. What are these things? “They are things that are associated with evil in general: covetousness, and worldly ambition for wealth and power, | greed and selfishness, Sirsgaid of

the rights ®nd liberties of Sees

spirit of malice, lack of forbearance and consideration for others; these are things that make for strife in cominunities, in nations, and among the nations, in a world that has increasingly becorae one community. If the peace of Christ ruled In the hearts of men, these things could not be so. If the word of Christ dwelt in us all, we could not live upon a plane of violence.

» n ” UT some one will say, not Christian nations been among the worst offenders? Do not Christian preachers and teachers sanction and bless wars in which their country happens to be engaged?” Yes, this is true. Sadly one must confess it; nor can we here discuss the citizen's practical duty when his nation is attacked or is at war. Situations arise that are complex and difficult, but one thing is certain: the spirit of Christ and of Christian teaching is opposed to the spirit of war and violence. We must see, too, that we do not sanction such things in the name of Christ. If there have been so-called “holy wars,” it was not war that was holy, but the unselfish devotion to some high cause and the willingness of those who championed it to suffer or die for it. We should go a long step toward ending war if we took from it the tinsel and the glory, and the blessing of the church. Even if we could conceive of war to be under certain circumstances unavoidable, it would make a great difference if we regarded it as a matter of stern and terrible necessity rather than anything inherently right or noble, or in any sense holy.

Let Them Worry Over Naming His New Book, Author Fortie Says

COLLIER tried to get M. J. Fortie to hold still

for an interview that might help the sale of his forthcoming book, but

he wouldn't until today.

CELLAR DEBRIS HELD HAZARD

Heating Plant Often Cause Of Blazes; Thorough Cleaning Urged.

While the City Fire Department has made 1081 less runs to date than it made during the same period in 1936, Chief Fred C. Kennedy today warned the public against autumn’s fire hazards. The most dangerous hazards are inside the home, he said. Many fall fires are due to overheated furnaces, careless disposition of ashes. faulty flues and outside bonfires. All ashes should be deposited in metal cans. the chief advised, A fire yesterday, which caused damage to a garage, was caused by piling ashes near the structure.

Littered Cellars Are Risk

Although cellar inspection has lowered considerably the number of heating plant fires, firemen still consider this kind of control most difficult, Chief Kennedy said. A thorough cleaning of cellars, attics and closets will reduce this winter's fire toll and save many dollars, he said. The average cost of fire-truck runs is $50, Stressing the dangers of saving packing material in basements, Chief Kennedy said: “Fifteen cents worth of this material has burned down many a home worth as many thousands of dollars.”

® The tow path’s no good today. Mr. Fortie arrived from Honolulu in the N. Meridian St. office at “three minutes past two p. m.” with the manuscript of his first book which he hoped Bobbs-Merrill wouid publish. Executives were there, waiting to 20 swiftly over whatever it is that publishers go over with authors. Mr. Fortie regarded them as though they had been dropped on their heads when they were babies for working on such a nice day. “I want to go to the tow path, said.

Leaves Them Flat

He left. them flat, refused to dis= cuss the book even for a moment, and went to the tow path. He admitted today that “I didn't know whether they would throw the book after me or not. But I knew the weather was going to break pretty soon, and I had to walk along the tow path again.” “Where is the tow path?” some= one asked. “What!” never been there? right away.” “How did you know there was a tow path?” “I didn’t live in Indianapolis for nothing. I knew where the tow path was, along the canal.” So it developed that from 1909 to 1912 he was export manager for the old Waverly Co. which manufactured, if Mr. Fortie’'s memory is correct, electric autos. Traded With Natives : But before that, from 1901, when he left his native Italy to go to Africa because he had read that | Stanley and Livingston had gone there and become famous for it, until 1906 he made a living and | saved money as a trader, living with the natives. Then he took sick and the doctor looked at him and said: ; “Have you got any money?” He said he had. “Then you'd better spend it, cause you are going to die.” “So I went around the world,” he said, “and saw the United States for the first time.” He went back to Africa in 1907 and stayed until 1909, when the lure of the United States drew him back here. “The first thing I did was to take out my first naturalization papers, and the next thing I did was to for=, get to fellow them up. I don’t know why so many people do that.” Stranded in China He started back to Africa in 1914, but got stranded in China until 1917 when he completed the trip and stayed until 1920. He went to Hono= lulu and became an editorial writer on the Advertiser. “When I left,” he said, “They gave me a party behind my back. I left Saturday and Sunday they have a big writeup about me.” And so he wrote a book, and it’s to be published. Tomorrow he goes to New York, and then back to Africa. “What's the title?” “I don't know. They haven't de= cided. I could have my way. but I won't push it. But my title, the one I think it ought to be, is “Black and Beautiful.”
